"Tsunade-sama, we've found out that there was indeed a wild boar gone berserk in the Death Forest. It broke through the protective fence at the northwest corner this morning, damaging fields near a village adjacent to Konoha and the village chief's house."

"Later, the village chief of that village came to Konoha and issued a commission to eliminate the wild boar. After the mission team investigated, it was classified as a C-rank mission and was taken by Uchiha Yoichi at 9:30 in the morning."

"Now Yoichi has completed the mission. The carcass of the wild boar has been taken away by the client, and Yoichi just arrived in Konoha and submitted the mission completion report."

"This is the information collected by the ANBU about Yoichi, Tsunade-sama."

The ANBU detailed everything Tsunade wanted to investigate, but they completely overlooked the anger on Tsunade's face when reporting about the berserk boar.

'What berserk boar? She was trying to figure out how to escape!'

"Oh, Tsunade, rare for you not to drink early in the morning. So, you're researching wild boars here!"

A voice that deserved a punch came, instantly giving Tsunade an outlet for her anger.

Tsunade reached out and directly slammed Jiraiya, who was nearly two meters tall, into the wall. With a loud bang, the wall cracked into countless fractures centered around Jiraiya's body.

"Jiraiya, besides you, what other jutsu can turn people into animals? Also, where were you last night?"

"Tsu-Tsunade, what's gotten into you? I was just joking with you."

Jiraiya, seeing Tsunade clenching her fists, making crisp sounds, immediately recalled the near-death experience and hastily answered her questions.

"I was with Minato last night. He created a new jutsu, quite impressive. Minato intends to teach it to me."

"As for the toad transformation jutsu you mentioned, probably only I can do it. It's a jutsu from Mount Myoboku, and no one else knows it."

After hearing this, Tsunade knew Jiraiya wouldn't dare to lie to her. She clicked her tongue discontentedly.

To be played like this, and even almost died, made it impossible for Tsunade to leave it.

But this kind of thing sounded beyond the norms of a ninja. Although Tsunade's strength couldn't be ranked in the top three of Konoha, she could still be among the top in the village. Who could silently stuff her consciousness into the body of a wild boar?

It couldn't be achieved even with the Forbidden Jutsu: Reanimation Technique, right?

"Tsunade, what's wrong with you?"

"None of your business!"

Tsunade snorted coldly and then turned around and left directly. She was going to ask the Third Hokage.

The ninja technique that could stuff a person's consciousness into an animal's body, perhaps her teacher, the master of ninja techniques, would know something. And there was also something that bothered Tsunade a bit.

That Uchiha brat!

Although she couldn't blame the Uchiha brat for assaulting her during the mission completion, Tsunade couldn't let go of this grudge; also, she remembered vaguely hearing something about some powers at that time and that Lightning Release Chakra Mode.

Just now, the ANBU handed her the information about Uchiha Yoichi. Tsunade planned to go ask the Third Hokage about it as well.

After completing the C-rank mission, Yoichi rushed to a town in the southern part of the Fire Country.

The journey was a bit long, probably taking half a day at Yoichi's normal travel speed.

Among ninjas, many couldn't endure the boring and daily killing days. There were quite a few who chose to leave the ninja village or defect, but these ninjas had no other strengths besides killing. After leaving the ninja village, they could only rely on their strength to plunder wealth to achieve their own enjoyment.

This B-rank mission was a commission issued by a merchant association in this town. Their property was seized by a violent organization supported by ninjas, threatening their business.

And his subordinates were useless, so they had to turn to Konoha for ninja support.

Not long after leaving Konoha, Yoichi took off his forehead protector and changed into a different outfit.

The Konoha forehead protector served as both a deterrent and a source of danger. At his age, if his identity as a Konoha ninja and an Uchiha were exposed, there might be greater danger.

After arriving in to the town, Yoichi found the employer and inquired about the mission. He transformed into a fierce appearance using Transformation Technique, directly dispelling the employer's concern about him being alone, and revealed all the information he knew.

After hearing everything, Yoichi casually said, "Wait for the news," and then left.

He gathered some information himself afterward, even found an opportunity to use Genjutsu to control the two subordinates of that ninja, asking for some intelligence.

Although Yoichi didn't specialize in Genjutsu, after awakening the Sharingan, every member of the clan would be given two Sharingan Genjutsus, one for offense and the other for defensive illusions, like the Mirror Heaven and Earth Change.

His Genjutsu was just average, but dealing with ordinary people was no problem. Therefore, he managed to extract enough information. The opponent was a missing-nin from Kusagakure, Jiro Jikawa.

Yoichi didn't underestimate the ninja world. Those who were careless here would die.

After confirming Jikawa's average strength, Yoichi lurked and searched,waited, then found an opportunity, used shuriken to block all his escape routes, and then a massive Fireball Jutsu, burning Jikawa and his two subordinates to death.

"That's more like it. It wasn't because of my shuriken throwing jutsu being trash, but that boar was just special."

Yoichi said satisfactorily. His shuriken just now could be called a veritable dragnet.

Dealing with a missing-nin from Kusagakure was not difficult. After being away from the ninja village, enjoying himself for so long, and not knowing his true strength, the task described as a suspected B-rank mission was probably because this Kusagakure missing-nin had used some frightening ninja art in combat.

After dealing with Jikawa and cleaning up, Yoichi went back to find the employer and informed him that the mission was completed. However, Yoichi told the employer to wait half a month before going to Konoha to submit the mission completion.

This way, Yoichi could stay outside for another half month, enough for him to have a good time outside.

After coming to the ninja world for more than a year, the first six months were spent practicing ninjutsu desperately, fearing that he would die on the battlefield directly; the latter six months were spent getting familiar with the life of a ninja.

However, his career path was quite unfavorable, and even now, he was labeled as someone who deliberately used his teammates.

Konoha was not as good as Hashirama Senju wanted it to be. This village is like a big family? It's only been a few decades since its founding, and it's already starting to decay.
