Naruto：Immortality and the Eight Inner Gates[Double agent]

Soon, the mission to intercept the Sunagakure squad was relayed to the very back of the team—to Squad Eleven.

Glancing at the eager expressions of Shikaku and his two teammates, Rinjin's face remained unchanged. He continued to read the coverless book in his hands with a serious demeanor, casually calling out:

"You three, come here!"

Hearing this, Shikaku and his teammates obediently approached Rinjin.

Seeing this, Rinjin calmly placed the book back into his ninja pouch, crouched down slowly, and touched the ground lightly with his index finger.

"Watch closely. I'll only demonstrate this once!"

"Sage Mode—activate!"

In the next instant, vibrant green spread from the roots of his hair, rapidly dyeing his entire head of black hair into a striking green.

Simultaneously, his sensory network expanded at full speed, quickly covering a two-kilometer radius.

"Magnet Release: Master Ball!"

As soon as the words left his mouth, the ground trembled slightly. Then, a massive flow of iron sand began seeping out of the earth like water, forming a hollow iron sphere about ten meters in diameter in front of Rinjin.

Rinjin pressed his finger against the ground, and a crackling blue current shot out, connecting to the large iron sphere hovering in midair.

He stood there silently, holding the iron sphere aloft, waiting quietly.

Before long, the rustling sound of leaves in the dense forest became increasingly distinct.

From within the thick woods, two Konoha shinobi, clad in green vests and covered in blood, stumbled out. The moment they spotted the logistics team, a look of regret and guilt flashed across their faces.

"I am the captain of the messenger squad—"

Before the leading man could finish his hurried explanation, a low shout came from the back of the team.

"Move aside!"

The next moment, a massive black iron sphere crackling with blue lightning came hurtling straight at them.

Startled, the two bloodied shinobi froze for a moment, the hairs on their backs standing on end.

Thanks to the warning they received a second earlier, they reacted instantly, stumbling and scattering to either side.

Just as they dodged, the iron sphere roared past, carrying an unstoppable momentum, smashing heavily into the space behind them.

Boom! A deafening explosion.

The ground cracked, and debris scattered.

Beneath the iron sphere, the creaking remains of a puppet were crushed into pieces.

At the same time, Rinjin pointed at the iron sphere, the corners of his mouth lifting into an almost imperceptible smirk.

"Electric Surge!"

At his whisper, the iron sphere suddenly erupted with a blinding blue light. The electric net encasing the sphere expanded violently, forming a massive hemispherical electromagnetic field.

In an instant, the air grew deathly still. Hidden within the shadows of the trees, puppets began dropping from the sky like dumplings into a pot.

Meanwhile, the Sunagakure shinobi lurking in the shadows felt an inexplicable discomfort spreading throughout their bodies.

Unbeknownst to them, the intense electromagnetic waves were wreaking havoc on their systems.

The powerful electromagnetism not only altered the distribution of metallic elements within their bodies but also disrupted their neural transmission processes.

The three effects of strong magnetism—thermal, stimulative, and non-thermal—silently assaulted their bodies.

The most immediate symptoms were disruptions in their nervous systems caused by the induced electric currents. This manifested as muscle spasms, involuntary movements, respiratory paralysis, difficulty breathing, and weakened pulses.

At that moment, a panicked shout rang out from the dense forest:

"Illusion! We've been caught in an illusion! Retreat!"

...

Hearing this, Rinjin scratched his head in exasperation. His gaze inadvertently fell upon Choza, who was staring at him with a mixture of awe and reverence.

"Sensei, I didn't know your genjutsu was so incredible!"

"Uh... hehe~"

(⊙o⊙)… How do I explain this?

Will my secret—that I scored zero on the academy's Genjutsu Theory Exam—be exposed?!

No way! I'll have to silence them!

Thinking quickly, Rinjin pursed his lips and reluctantly accepted Choza's admiration, though his hands didn't stop moving.

"Go, Master Ball!"

"Crush those clueless Sunagakure shinobi who love to run their mouths!"

In the next instant, the massive iron sphere began spinning violently, rolling straight into the dense forest.

A series of agonized screams followed.

Before long, the forest, concealed by layers of leaves, fell silent.

The iron sphere rolled back to Rinjin's feet, bloodstained iron sand dispersing into the ground, revealing eleven grotesquely flattened corpses.

It was gruesome, but everyone present had seen their share of battlefields and was long accustomed to such sights.

Even the three brats from Squad Eleven showed no signs of discomfort.

Shikaku, on the other hand, rubbed his chin thoughtfully as he observed the dispersing iron sand, a pensive expression on his face.

"Well? Gained any insights?"

Ignoring the reverent gazes from the logistics team, Rinjin patted Shikaku on the shoulder and asked curiously.

Hearing this, the frowning and contemplative Shikaku nodded.

"I have some ideas. Sensei, why did your hair turn green?"

"Oh, this? It's called Sage Mode, which means your sensei is now a Sage!"

"What's different from normal?"

Hearing this, Rinjin nodded in satisfaction.

Though Shikaku often appeared lazy, his observational skills were indeed sharp.

With a sigh of approval, Rinjin explained:

"There are many changes, but the most significant one right now is sensory range—two kilometers."

"Two kilometers?! That's huge! Is the sensory ability precise?" Shikaku asked, his eyes wide with astonishment.

"It's fairly precise."

As the two conversed, Tsunade approached, giving Rinjin a heavy pat on the shoulder and exclaiming in surprise:

"Rinjin! I didn't know you were hiding genjutsu skills too!

"I remember back in school, you and Jiraiya both scored zero on the Genjutsu Theory Exam! How did you suddenly get so good?!"

...

Wait!

I forgot Tsunade was in the same class as me! What a miscalculation!

What should I do? Silence her?

Glancing at the crowd eavesdropping with perked ears, Rinjin rolled his eyes in exasperation.

"Cut it out. You only scored 58. If that idiot Churyu Daku hadn't accidentally marked you up to 60, you wouldn't have passed either!"

"Rubbish!"

Tsunade's face turned bright red with embarrassment. She grabbed Rinjin by the collar furiously.

"I... I passed fair and square! When the scores were announced... I... I had 60!"

Hearing this, Rinjin, still calm despite being grabbed, raised an eyebrow and sneered:

"Who writes a 6 in 60 with a flat top like a 5, huh?

"And who puts a little cross inside the zero in 60?"

At this, Tsunade's face reddened even further. Ignoring the audience, she tackled Rinjin to the ground and clamped a hand over his mouth.

"Shut... shut up! That... that's because Churyu Daku... deducted two points!"
