The Country of Grass is next door to the Land of Rain.
The two of them set off from the Akatsuki headquarters in the morning.
In the afternoon, they bought information at the exchange office and arrived outside the high walls of the target minister's house in the middle of the night.
Yumi Hinata squatted on a tree and rolled her eyes.
"Most of the guards are ordinary people. Four ninjas and Chakra are not strong. One of them can reach the level of a jounin.
Although the other two have Chakra reaction, they are more like samurai. It's similar to what the information said. "
She drew a rough structure with a pencil on the back of the information scroll and pointed to Lantern Full Moon next to her. "This is the target's room.
There are three people in the room.
The other two may be concubines.
There is no Chakra. "
Lantern Full Moon nodded and asked, "Is there a running water system?"
Yumi Hinata adjusted the depth of her X-ray vision and observed, "Yes, there is.
There is a bathroom in his room … Do you want to sneak in through the water pipe? "
"Well, it's easier."
The Art of Water Transformation was among all the bloodline limits Yumi Hinata had seen.
In terms of unscientific degree, it was ranked number one.
Not to mention that when Lantern Full Moon liquified the part of his skin that was hit by her that day, his skin and meridians all disappeared. At that time, when she hit him with her palm, water droplets splashed out, but she didn't see him lose skin or flesh.
The air was humid enough along the way.
However, Lantern Full Moon had been drinking water at a far higher frequency than normal people, but he didn't urinate at a higher frequency than normal.
The weather was very cool.
The water on his body seemed to have evaporated.
Yumi Hinata squatted in place and watched Lantern Full Moon leave.
In her Byakugan vision, the meridians and acupoints in her partner's human form were no different from ordinary ninjas. At most, his Chakra state was more flexible and scattered, but this didn't seem to affect the precision of his control of Chakra. Previously, when he was hiding in the Land of Rain for a month, he was washing dishes in the water.
When he liquified in the garden of the minister's house, there were no meridians and acupoints in his body at all. His whole person seemed to have become a pure Chakra.
Of course, this Chakra was still a person in her perception. It was different from the thing that was extracted from the body when she used ninjutsu.
"Ninjutsu is wonderful..." Yumi Hinata sighed and watched the "Lantern Full Moon" merge into the garden's canal, then flow along the water pipe into a thin strip, and finally flow out of the bathroom tap in the bedroom, and once again return to a human form.
After that, Yumi Hinata turned off Byakugan and switched to Chakra perception mode. When he liquified, he didn't liquify with his clothes.
Speaking of which, Byakugan was indeed unique if it was used for peeping.
Although it was difficult to see directly if it wasn't on a flat surface, it was super difficult to piece together multiple layers and angles in the mind. Not many people could do it. And even if they saw it, it would be black and white lines without color, which meant that it was like an ordinary person wearing clothes. Generally, no one would bother to peep.
However, places like bathtubs and locker rooms were completely defenseless for a kid who had awakened Byakugan.
Of course, the Hyuga family had very strict rules in this regard. If someone was caught using Byakugan as a pervert, he would have to be taken back to the Hyuga family to enjoy a "Caged Bird" meal before being thrown into prison by the Uchiha guards.
It was the same in the Yasuji family. If you wanted to practice using Byakugan, you could. Start from the training ground. Outside the training ground, there was no reason to use Byakugan. If they were seen by the clansmen, they would be beaten up. Everyone knew who they were. If you said you didn't see anything you shouldn't see, then you didn't see it? And it was a 359 ° angle. Even if you didn't want to see it, you would still see it.
Hyuga Yumi's mind wandered as she watched the wind. She thought of how many idiotic jokes the Hyuga Clan had made because of Byakugan Byakugan Byakugan Clan. She almost laughed out loud.
Lantern Full Moon quickly completed his task and returned through the water pipe. His stealth method did not alert anyone, and he quietly returned to the original place.
Yumi Hinata jumped down from the tree to meet him. "Let's find a place to sleep for the night."
Lantern Full Moon suddenly asked, "Are you happy?"
Yumi Hinata was stunned. "Huh?"
Lantern Full Moon pointed at her face. "You've been smiling." After a moment of silence, he added, "It's rare."
She had been smiling since just now.
Yumi Hinata could not help but touch the corner of her mouth. She said perfunctorily, "... Of course I'm happy to earn money from the mission."
Yes, being Yumi Hinata for twenty years was naturally a heavy, painful, and vigilant twenty years. The name Yasuji had brought her such burdens. Of course, she had also been happy, although the happiness she received from the Hyuga family was so little and so shallow.
There was no curfew in the capital of Grass Country. At two o'clock in the morning, the shops on the streets were occasionally lit up. Yumi Hinata looked at the izakaya that was still brightly lit. "Shall we go out of the city or get something to eat first?"
The mission this time required them to act as a cover-up. Tomorrow, the Grass Country would be under martial law. Naturally, they had to avoid the suspicion of a "suspicious ninja who suddenly appeared in the eye of the storm." Even if they were to stay for the night, they had to find a place where no one was around.
Lantern Full Moon shook his head. "It's too late. If we go to the izakaya now, we'll leave a deep impression."
Yumi Hinata sighed. She put her hand on Lantern Full Moon's shoulder and took him back to the outside of the city. She took out the Thor kunai that she buried earlier and walked northeast for a while. They stopped when they were about to reach the border of the Fire Nation.
"Let's stay here tonight."
Yumi Hinata took out seven or eight scrolls from her loose robe. She opened the seals and took out a picnic mat, a charcoal stove, pots, bowls, chopsticks, soup, fish balls, dehydrated vegetables, and dried noodles. She started cooking excitedly.
While she was waiting for the noodles to finish cooking, she saw Lantern Full Moon sitting under a tree nearby. He was looking at her with an indifferent expression.
"What's wrong?"
Lantern Full Moon looked away. "What do you plan to do next?"
"I have to go to the Fire Nation," Yumi Hinata said. "It'll take some time … at least five days."
Lantern Full Moon nodded to show that he understood.
When the noodles were ready, Yumi Hinata scooped out a bowl and asked out of pure politeness, "Do you want to eat?"
She planned to eat it herself in the next second. After all, they were both famous for being rebellious. When it came to ruthlessness, no one would lose to the other. Although they were partners now, it would be too careless of them to eat each other's food as if nothing had happened.
However, Lantern Full Moon didn't hesitate at all. He walked over and took the bowl. "Thank you."
Yumi Hinata was stunned. Was he really that careless? Wasn't Kirin in the Land of Blood Mist? Legend had it that after graduation, one would kill one's companions. Even if he didn't graduate during the World War III, he shouldn't be so careless. How did he survive?
When she saw that his fingers holding the bowl were soft under the light of the fire, like slightly melted wax, Yumi Hinata suddenly understood. His body was a little melted from the heat of the bowl, and he almost forgot to use the Water Transformation Jutsu. He probably wasn't afraid of poison at all, so he could eat whatever he wanted to eat.
She couldn't help but sigh in her heart. She would never ask again. Fortunately, there were spare utensils. She unsealed a pair of chopsticks and directly picked up the pot to eat.
After dawn, before they set off, Yumi Hinata took off her forehead protector and put away her robe. She put on an ordinary girl's kimono over her skintight ninja jacket, put on black contact lenses, tied a decorative hairband on her forehead, and tied her long hair into a high ponytail. She immediately looked like a different person.
"You'd better take off your forehead protector," she said to Lantern Full Moon. "I want to commission a task in Tahara Town. We have to look more decent."
In this regard, Lantern Full Moon was easier to talk to than Yumi Hinata thought. He took off his forehead protector, took off his robe, and put away his broadsword into the scroll. He looked like an ordinary handsome boy.
In a teahouse in Tahara Town, Yumi Hinata looked at the young man in front of her with watery eyes. "Thank you for being willing to help me. Really, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't know what to do."
The grain store clerk comforted her. "Don't get your hopes up. Ninjas are different from us."
Yumi Hinata said mournfully. "I didn't know he was Ninja-sama before. We clearly agreed to meet in Kikyo Town, but he never came. I had no choice but to ask around at the inn where he stayed before. Only then did I know that he was Ninja-sama. But I have already dealt with my family's wealth in the Waterfall Country according to the agreement. I brought my brother to the Fire Nation just to reunite with him. But now I don't know what to do. "
She covered her face with her sleeve, her voice choked as if she was about to cry. "I don't have any other thoughts, and I don't dare to blame Ninja-sama. I just want to call him out and ask him why. If he has no affection for me in his heart, then I will no longer pester him. I will take my brother and leave the Fire Nation to return to my hometown."
"Don't cry," Mangetsu Mangetsu dryly said his only line.
The grain store clerk patted his chest and assured her. "Don't worry. Isn't it that Ninja called Hyuga Suigetsu? I'll remember it. When I arrive in Konoha with the boss, I'll assign him to do your task. There's no mistake. I guarantee that you'll see that heartless man and ask him clearly!"
Yumi Hinata handed over the neatly wrapped commission fee with both hands. "I'll leave it all to you."
After bidding farewell to the enthusiastic grain store clerk and returning to the inn, Lantern Full Moon asked her, "I didn't find any traces of you using Genjutsu or Suggestion on him. How can you guarantee that he'll do as you say?"
"There's no guarantee." Yumi Hinata spread her hands. "A B-level mission requires the Hokage to entrust it. The Sandaime-sama isn't a salted fish. It's too easy for him to find traces of Genjutsu on ordinary people. But anyway, it's only one hundred and fifty thousand taels. If he runs away with the money, I'll just find another person. "
Just as Pipa Shizang said, the Mount Watermelon fugu didn't report his failure to kill Pipa Shizang to his superiors. In the following month, Lantern Full Moon recuperated. Yumi Hinata alternately used Byakugan to investigate with her Shadow Doppelganger, while she hurriedly recovered Chakra. During this time, they encountered several Kirino patrols, but they avoided Byakugan from afar.
A month later, the three of them once again hid in a cargo ship and left the Land of Water.
After gathering in the Land of Rain, Pipa Shizang and Sasori, who didn't have partners, were arranged to work together. They were responsible for the missions around the Land of Earth. Yumi Hinata and Lantern Full Moon, who received a uniform, ring, and nail polish, were responsible for the missions around the Land of Iron to the Land of Hot Water.
This was also good. These small countries happened to be north of the Fire Nation. Many of the missions were either entrusted to the Land of Thunder in the north or the Fire Nation in the south. There was a chance to meet Yasuji, who was on a mission with his teammates, or simply entrust a few difficult missions with an alias. However, the Fire Nation required the mission client to personally go to Konoha for review, which was a problem.
In fact, as long as she could sneak into Konoha, Yumi Hinata didn't even have to take the risk to entrust missions to Hokage. She had left countless Thor marks in the Hyuga family. However, Yasuji's Thor was located in the center of Konoha, and the effective range of her Thor mark was only about one kilometer.
"As long as I can enter Konoha," Yumi Hinata thought. "The whole Hyuga family is a suitable test subject. If one of them doesn't agree, I'll knock them out and ask another one. There are hundreds of people, so I can ask them one by one."
However, the entire Konoha was covered by the enchantment. A wanted criminal like her must have been blacklisted by the enchantment team long ago. As soon as she entered, she would be discovered, and then she would have to face the entire village's ninjas.
It wasn't that she couldn't escape, but what was the point of going in and running away? She was looking for someone.
And all these actions had to be done right under the nose of Lantern Full Moon.
Yumi Hinata thought about it and felt that it was impossible. She decided to go in front of Payne and asked him directly, "Can I do something of my own when I don't have a mission?"
Payne looked at her. "What do you want to do?"
"You know, I'm a branch of the Yasuji family." Yumi Hinata pointed to her forehead. "I'm going to catch a few Hyuga family members from Konoha for an experiment and see if I can get rid of this mark."
Payne was actually very considerate. "Sure, as long as it doesn't delay business." He added, "If you can't get into Konoha, you can entrust this mission to someone else in the organization."
"No, thank you." I don't want the Hyuga family to be turned into a bloodbath. Yumi Hinata said, "I like to do this kind of thing myself."
Payne's reply made Yumi Hinata's heart go cold. Uchiha Zetsu made it clear that he wanted to use the Caged Bird to control her, but now he was letting her do whatever she wanted. This showed that he was very confident that the Caged Bird couldn't be undone.
But she had to try anyway. The mysteries of ninjutsu were endless. Yumi Hinata was often surprised by the strange effects of ninjutsu. It could even summon souls like the Edo Tensei, so how could it not be possible to undo a curse that controlled the nervous system?
This method must exist in the world, but no one had discovered it yet.
After staying in the Akatsuki's headquarters for a few days, Yumi Hinata received her first official mission: assassinate a minister of the Kusanagi Country. She didn't like this kind of thing, but she had done this kind of mission in Konoha before, and it was still above her bottom line.
The difference was that the assassination missions in Konoha were either for a legitimate reason, such as revenge for a personal grudge, or commissioned by the country, and unless it was wartime, they wouldn't accept such missions that would easily cause instability between the country and the ninja village. But the purpose of the Akatsuki was to monopolize war missions, and they didn't refuse assassination missions.
