Chapter 51 - Chapter 51: A-level Earth Escape: Earth Substitute

Night Light's vision changed, returning to the previous full moon night.

At this moment, he was hiding in the crown of a large tree, monitoring the Senju Clan Grounds.

Damn it, Anbu is too dangerous. I haven't even seen the Nine-Tailed transfer its seal, and I've already died in intelligence reconnaissance.

Every month, I've been so careful, and not once have I made it safely to the next full moon. I haven't even actively drawn a prize since I transmigrated.

[Moon Viewing Arc activated!

The host only has one revival opportunity per month. After death, he will revive on the previous full moon night.

Reward one lottery opportunity:

1 - B-rank Earth Release: Earth Flow Spears (Entry-level);

2 - Physique: Giant Rock Body (Strength Enhancement);

3 - A-rank Earth Release: Earth Replacement Technique (Entry-level).]

His first Chakra attribute is Earth, and he didn't expect three such perfectly suited rewards to appear. It's so hard to choose.

B-rank Earth Flow Spears, creates hard rock spikes to attack enemies.

Night Light currently has an Earth Release Ninjutsu for escape, Earth Release: Underground Projection Fish Technique. Earth Flow Spears is exactly the offensive Ninjutsu Night Light desperately needs.

If he chooses this Ninjutsu, he can launch mid-range attacks, enriching his combat system.

The second option, Physique: Giant Rock Body (Strength Enhancement), also looks good.

Many Iwagakure Ninja are tall and burly, with bulging muscles and immense strength, suggesting they frequently engage in strength training.

If he chooses this reward, his physique will be enhanced.

The third option, A-rank Earth Release: Earth Replacement Technique.

He carefully recalled the battle before his death in the previous life.

When he jumped towards the Rock Ninja Jonin, the Rock Ninja Jonin was still maintaining a dense array of Earth Flow Spears. It was definitely his real body, not a substitute.

The Ninja blade slashed towards the Cloud Ninja Jonin, who raised his hand and blocked with the iron armor on his arm.

The Cloud Ninja Jonin used Earth Replacement Technique silently, giving it a somewhat mysterious and unpredictable feel.

After a slight hesitation, Night Light chose the third option.

Only by surviving can there be output. Defense is the best offense, and improving his survival ability is more crucial.

Up until now, Night Light has always died before the full moon.

He really wanted to die on the fourteenth, and he really wanted to decide his own manner of death.

If he safely passed an entire month, he could, on the fourteenth, actively provoke a target and draw a reward.

The Senju Clan Head, the Uchiha Clan Head, the Third Hokage, which one couldn't grant powerful abilities?

Unfortunately, he always died on missions.

Night Light was extremely cautious. After dying each month, he would become even more careful, avoiding danger and patiently waiting for the full moon.

A-rank Earth Release: Earth Replacement Technique is a top-tier Replacement Technique.

After choosing this technique, Night Light's eyelids drooped.

Information about Earth Replacement Technique entered his brain.

Uh... he profited! He profited greatly!

Earth Replacement Technique was actually so powerful!

Earth Replacement Technique involves sending Chakra into the ground beneath one's feet, and when danger arises, swapping oneself with the earth beneath, thereby avoiding damage and dodging attacks.

Among the Replacement Technique series, Earth Replacement Technique is indeed a top-tier Replacement Technique.

D-rank Replacement Technique requires using Transformation Jutsu to transform a tree stump into one's likeness when the enemy is not paying attention, with the main body hidden in the shadows.

The key to D-rank Replacement Technique is to utilize the brief window when the enemy loses sight of oneself.

However, Earth Replacement Technique doesn't require complicated preparations; it's like flipping a switch, instantly swapping positions between one's body and the soil beneath one's feet.

It only requires half of the Ox hand seal with one hand to complete Earth Replacement Technique.

It's concealed, swift, difficult to predict, and consumes little Chakra.

Combined with Earth Release: Underground Projection Fish Technique, it allows Night Light to easily execute a complete set of tactics: luring the enemy, stealth, and flanking.

Just like in the previous life, in the following days, Fox Squad used the Senju kunoichi to send out the intelligence regarding Uzumaki Mito's funeral date.

Purple Cat had long since harbored feelings for Night Light, and Night Light repeatedly enjoyed the young Purple Cat's shyness, her face flushing pink.

Men are always so fickle. Night Light indulged in Purple Cat's innocence, rarely visiting Crane Moon Izagaya to see the proprietress, Qiao Yi, these past few days.

Fox Squad was still dispatched to pursue the Yamanaka rogue Ninja. This time, Night Light didn't use expensive Exploding Tags. After infiltrating with Earth Release, he killed four naked Yamanaka Ninja.

This time, Night Light was well-prepared, and Black Bull did not die.

It's quite good to be able to live again each month; the survival rate of teammates also increases.

On the night of the fourth, Uzumaki Mito and Vortex Kushina left late at night in a carriage.

Black Gorilla Squad was dispatched to gather intelligence.

The difference was that this time, Night Light had foreseen many things.

Earth and rock dragons charged, charging at Black Gorilla Squad.

Fox Squad and White Sheep Squad were separated on one side, while Squad Leader Black Gorilla and Leaf Monkey Squad were separated on the other.

Bai Yang sacrificed three Revolutions, plus the life of one teammate, finally securing an opportunity for Fox to strike.

Night Light still used Cloud Style Swordsmanship, striking the Rock Ninja Jonin's throat.

The Rock Ninja Jonin turned into mud, having used Earth Replacement Technique.

Everything went smoothly, without a hitch.

Night Light strained to bend at the waist, half-turning, and using his extraordinary reaction speed, dodged the Rock Ninja Jonin's Kunai.

The Rock Ninja Jonin was very surprised; this Konoha ANBU was quite strong.

However, an Earth Flow Spears pierced out from behind him, impaling Night Light's lower back.

Two more Anbu charged fearlessly towards the Rock Ninja Jonin.

The Rock Ninja Jonin heard the whooshing sound behind him and quickly turned to respond.

Just then, Fox, who had supposedly died, went limp and turned into mud.

His actual body emerged from the soil behind the Rock Ninja Jonin, stabbing a blade into the Rock Ninja Jonin's lower back.

The Rock Ninja Jonin was forming hand seals, his eyes filled with terror.

What's going on?

When he turned his head, he saw the mud on the Earth Flow Spears, and the Konoha ANBU wearing the Fox mask from just now.

This Anbu actually mastered an A-rank Ninjutsu like Earth Replacement Technique?

When did Konoha's Earth Release become so strong?

Even in Iwagakure, Earth Replacement Technique is a rare Replacement Technique, difficult to master and extremely hard to acquire.

Night Light, having successfully struck, was about to expand his advantage when he saw the Rock Ninja Jonin complete his hand seals.

Earth Flow Spears burst out of the ground one after another!

If Night Light delayed for another second, he would be impaled like a porcupine.

Without hesitation, Night Light formed half of the Ox hand seal with one hand, and his body once again swapped with the soil beneath his feet.

After sinking into the earth, Night Light escaped underground.

He had excellently completed his mission, severely wounding the Rock Ninja Jonin.

When he emerged from the earth again, he saw that apart from Bai Yang and Purple Cat, who were supporting each other, everyone else had died from the dense impalements of Earth Flow Spears.

Five Earth Flow Spears pierced towards Purple Cat and Bai Yang from different directions.

Their eyes behind their masks were filled with terror.

The Byakugan, already as terrifying as a morbid cataract, became even more chilling when filled with fear.

Purple Cat's heart was filled with sorrow; she was going to die after all.

Earlier, Advisor Danzo went to her clan, requesting the Yamanaka Clan to provide people to serve in Anbu.

The Village's high-ranking officials and various clan heads all knew about Anbu's exaggerated casualty rate.

They didn't know what kind of missions Anbu was executing, only that Chunin who entered died in batches.

Yamanaka Li, as the eldest sister among the young Yamanaka of this generation, voluntarily stepped forward, willing to enter Anbu for her family.

Her mother cried until her eyes were red.

After her father sacrificed himself for the Village, her mother raised her and her younger sister.

For her younger sister, Yamanaka Li also had to voluntarily enter Anbu.

She never expected that she would die on a mission less than half a year after entering Anbu.

The Rock Ninja Jonin's strength was too great; Ninjutsu followed one after another, and his Chakra seemed endless.

Even with a Ninja blade stuck in his abdomen, he could still kill her and Bai Yang.

Just when Purple Cat was most desperate, the Fox Squad Leader arrived in time!

Fox's back made Purple Cat want to cry a little.

Does this mean she won't die?

Night Light thought to himself, Bai Yang's Byakugan is very crucial; he is an important reconnaissance Ninja for the squad.

With a Byakugan in the squad, enemies can be discovered in advance, greatly increasing the survival rate, so Bai Yang cannot die.

"Water Release: Water Formation Wall!"

A wall of water surrounded Purple Cat and Bai Yang, breaking through the Earth Flow Spears.

Night Light raised an eyebrow slightly; the strength of the Earth Flow Spears had weakened, proving that the Rock Ninja Jonin was much weaker after being stabbed.
