Yoru's Name Spreads
Very quickly, news of Hoshino Yoru appearing on the battlefield spread across the entire Land of Rain.
It was said that the Rain ninja who escaped…
After witnessing the horrific deaths of his comrades—
Went insane.
People discovered that anyone who fought Yoru…
Never left a complete corpse behind.
Thus—
The title of "Demon Yoru" spread even further.
Hanzo's Rage
BOOM!
Hanzo slammed his hand onto the table, flames of fury burning in his eyes.
"Again—it's that Yoru!"
"He dares to appear on the battlefield again?!"
His roar echoed through the room.
"And every time—he lets one Rain ninja escape!"
"Last time he even spoke such arrogant words!"
Hanzo's face twisted in rage.
"This is an insult to the Hidden Rain Village! A humiliation!"
"I, Hanzo, have been pushed to this extent by a mere brat?! Unforgivable!"
The Rain ninjas below trembled, drenched in cold sweat.
They had never seen their leader this furious.
Hanzo Summons Elites
Hanzo slowly calmed down.
Then coldly ordered:
"Bring me—Nozawa, Miyamoto, and Kishi!"
Shock flashed in everyone's eyes.
Those three…
Were not ordinary shinobi.
Moments later—
Three elite Rain Jonin appeared, kneeling respectfully.
"Lord Hanzo, you summoned us?"
Hanzo nodded, satisfaction flickering in his eyes.
Three Elite JoninNozawa — master of Water Release, second only to HanzoMiyamoto — rare Wind Release user, expert in chakra swordsmanshipKishi — one of the few genjutsu masters in the village
These three—
Were among the strongest elite Jonin in Hidden Rain.
Mission: Kill Yoru
"The Konoha brat… Yoru."
"You've heard of him."
"Yes," Nozawa replied.
"Is this why we were summoned?"
"Correct."
Hanzo's voice grew colder.
"I want the three of you to move immediately."
"Find him."
"Kill him."
Nozawa frowned slightly.
"Lord Hanzo… all three of us, against one kid?"
"Isn't that overkill?"
Hanzo gave a faint approving look.
"I know your strength."
"But this boy killed Konoha Ipei."
"You must remain cautious."
The three exchanged glances.
Konoha Ipei?
He was among the weakest elite Jonin in their eyes.
Unlike them—
They were the top tier.
Hanzo continued:
"This time—crush him completely."
"He has brought great humiliation upon Hidden Rain."
Then added:
"I trust you three… will bring me his head."
The three smiled confidently.
"Within ten days—"
"We will deliver Yoru's head as a gift."
"Good!"
Hanzo said with satisfaction.
Special Operations Team
Meanwhile—
The results of Squad Eight shocked the front lines.
3 Konoha Chunin casualtiesEliminated:1 Rain Jonin3 Special Jonin15 Chunin
Senju Senra was overjoyed.
A Jonin was not expendable.
Even in Konoha—
They were precious assets.
Because of this—
A new unit was formed:
Special Operations Team3 Special Jonin15 ChuninHoshino Yoru
Total: 19 members
Yoru was appointed Captain.
Their mission:
Penetrate deep into the Land of Rain
👉 Conduct targeted extermination of enemy forces
Two Days Later
The team moved swiftly through dense forest.
Only 18 members remained—
One Chunin had died in a previous ambush.
"Let's rest ahead."
Yoru said calmly.
"Yes, Lord Yoru!"
Camp Scene
Yoru sat down and began eating—
Tearing into large chunks of roasted meat.
The others couldn't help but stare.
Even now—
They still found it shocking.
Some even thought:
Is this the secret to becoming strong?
"Lord Yoru is amazing."
One Special Jonin laughed.
"Yeah… I wonder how much merit we'll earn this time."
"All thanks to Lord Yoru."
Yoru smiled slightly—
Just as he was about to respond—
His expression suddenly changed.
Sudden Danger
"RUN!"
Ambush!
BOOM!
A massive water vortex erupted beneath them!
Three Chunin and one Special Jonin—
Were instantly dragged in.
The vortex twisted violently—
Lifting them into the air—
Brutal Death
They struggled—
Screamed—
And then—
Were torn apart.
The water turned blood-red.
Fragments of flesh scattered—
Like a rain of death.
