I Survived in Anbu to Become Super Kage

Returning to the village's Anbu base, Yako entered Yellow Dog's office.

"Captain, the operation targeting Special Jonin Shinba failed."

Yellow Dog looked up in surprise; Fox rarely missed his mark. "Why?"

"Shinba is quite strong. He fought the Sand ninjas to a standstill," Yako said, his tone laced with regret. "I was originally preparing to step in and finish him off, but the Jonin with the Transparent Escape Bloodline Limit, Gekko Shu, suddenly appeared."

"After assessing the situation, I abandoned the assassination."

"Gekko Shu earned the title of Invisible Assassin early on, and his Transparent Escape is a unique ability."

"I suspect that after completing his previous mission, he secretly traveled from the Port Kikyo docks to the vicinity of Mount Kikyo."

"The Anbu targeting several Special Jonin has likely put the smarter ones on their guard."

"Killing Shinba wouldn't have been difficult; the problem would be dealing with Gekko Shu afterward."
