The next day, in the afternoon, Yukan and Aayu went to the place as decided before.

Yukan once again lay down with his head in Aayu's lap while Aayu leaned against the tree and rubbed her hand through Yukan's hair lovingly.

Yukan covered his eyes as he remembered what he saw yesterday while following the four jonin.

'They aren't bad but, still, the mission will be over without a hitch. The only problem was that the females were just in another world, they were being... Arrogant, I guess? If it was me in the men's place, I would have not even tolerated it for a day.' (A/N: This is just fiction, not related to the real world at all.)

Yukan laughed lightly while he thought about it.

Aayu saw him laugh and asked," What are you giggling about? Tell me."

"Nothing."

As Aayu continued to pat Yukan's head, she made a promise to Yukan," Cutie Pie, we'll come here every year on your birthday and enjoy it here. Though, I permit you to bring Kushina here."

"Really? And, we can also come on your birthdays." Yukan said as a happy smile appeared on his face.

Aayu nodded and she curved her back to reach Yukan's head.

She kissed Yukan's forehead and said," Mom loves you, Cutie Pie."

"I-I love you too, mom," Yukan replied while he fumbled a bit. It was the first time he said that to his mom and thus, he felt a little embarrassed.

Yukan and Aayu spent the rest of the day enjoying and eating dinner outside in a restaurant.

The next day, Yukan reached the main gate of Konoha before the decided time and waited for the other five.

The other five came one by one. Yukan had already seen four of them but the fifth one was a new face.

He had the darker colour of skin and a little curly hair.

'I swear I am not a racist but I believe that he is from Kumo.' Yukan said in his mind.

"So, now that everyone is here, let's start," Yukan said.

He was the captain of this mission and the other five had to follow his orders.

"Captain, if I may ask, why are there six jonin on a single team?" Maita Masato, one of the four, asked Yukan.

"It is because we may encounter a lot of dangers during the mission. Any other questions?" Yukan answered.

Yuichi Takaki, another jonin raised his hand and asked," Why is our captain a kid like you?"

Yukan smiled on his face and said," I don't know, ask Hokage-Sama. If you are done, let's leave."

While Yukan smiled on the outside, he had decided to give Yuichi the most painful death of all.

Since Yuichi couldn't go to Hiruzen and ask him why Yukan was made the captain, he just followed him.

By the day's end, Yukan made a plan to start the killing of traitors.

His first target was Matsuura Katsuro, the one suspected to be from Kumo.

Yukan was sure that he was not involved with the other four, so the information he had was exclusive to him.

"Captain, we should stop now. It is starting to get dark." Maita said.

This was the perfect opportunity for Yukan to start his real mission.

Yukan nodded and agreed to Maita's suggestion.

"Everyone, let's rest here for today. Matsuura-San, you come with me to patrol the area a little further." Yukan said.

Matsuura was at the end of the group. After hearing Yukan's order, he came forward and prepared to go with him.

"The others, start preparing a place to rest," Yukan said and walked forward into the dense forest.

Matsuura and Yukan walked a distance when Yukan asked Matsuura a question.

"Matsuura-San, where are you from?"

"What do you mean? Konoha of course." Matsuura answered while making a weird expression.

"Oh, don't worry, I will make you tell the truth later," Yukan said.

When Matsuura heard this, he figured out that he was caught and tried to run away but, when he was not even a little far from where he started, Yukan appeared in front of him and punched him in the face.

As Yukan punched him, Yukan could feel something getting squished near his knuckle.

When Matsuura fell after getting punched, he had lost his consciousness and blood was overflowing out of his nose.

At that time, Yukan figured out that he had completely broken Matsuura's nose, not leaving anything in a piece and made it powder.

"This is too bad. He shouldn't have run so hard, I didn't even punch that hard." Yukan said as he was disgusted by the broken nose of Matsuura.

Yukan first took out a mask from his system subspace, covered Matsuura's face with it and then, tied Matsuura to a tree using a rope and sealed his chakra.

"He shouldn't be able to get out. Now, as for the other four. What method shall I use?" Yukan asked no one.

He could have simply gone and killed them all but, Yukan's mood was to do something different.

After thinking for some time, Yukan took out the [Mask of Oni] which gave the perfect disguise.

When Yukan wore the mask, marks of scratches appeared all over his face, clothes appeared to be torn from places and blood flowed out of those places.

Yukan then removed the mask and all the blood marks and torn clothes disappeared, revealing his previously perfect condition again.

"This really is very good," Yukan said and wore the mask again.

He appeared to be injured again and then he started to walk back to the other 'teammates'.

As Yukan was approaching them, Maita saw him and helped Yukan to walk up to a big rock to sit on.

"What happened, captain?" Natsuko, one of the women asked.

"We met two rabbits and then played with them. Of course, ninjas were waiting to ambush us. Matsuura gave his life to help me come back and inform you guys about the enemies." Yukan said.

All four of them quickly took out their kunais from their ninja pouches and got ready to fight while Natsuko stood beside Yukan to defend him.

Yukan saw this all and giggled a little as he stood up and said," Gotcha."

None of the four was able to react as Yukan took out his sword and swung it.
