At night, the bonfire in the village was burning brightly, the orange-red flames reflected on the faces of every bandit, they danced happily, their laughter echoed throughout the village.

The chief boss and the military advisor knelt respectfully in front of Yusuke, who was leisurely gnawing on a wild boar leg, making a smacking sound.

While eating, he said slowly, "You are still the nominal boss. As for what you should and shouldn't do, I won't repeat it."

The eldest brother raised his head, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, and he said cautiously: "But sir, we are all bandits. If you don't let us rob, what will the brothers eat and drink?"

After hearing this, Youjie gave the boss a slap on the head and said unhappily, "You don't know how to collect intelligence? There are so many wealthy businessmen in this country, why don't you just rob a few more?"

The eldest brother smiled bitterly and said, "We are just a bunch of brothers, and we don't have much money to recruit soldiers."

Yujie took a sip of wine and said calmly, "Go to the nearby towns to recruit some street urchins and offer them higher salaries. Once they come to the mountains, are you still afraid that they will go back?"

As he spoke, Yusuke hugged Aburame Shiho, a wicked smile on his face, and continued, "She still has a lot of bugs."

"I understand. My Lord is planning to get something for nothing." The eldest leader said excitedly, "Military Advisor, let's get everything sorted out tomorrow and go down the mountain together to recruit more people."

"Understood." The military advisor nodded, and went back with the boss to discuss strategy.

Yusuke continued to drink his wine, while Aburame Shiho lay quietly in his arms. She looked at Yusuke with surprise and said, "Captain, have you really changed a lot? Or is this your true self? Captain, do you actually want to be a bandit yourself?"

Yusuke smiled as he drank, "No, it's a rare experience. In Konoha, there are always people controlling you no matter what you do. So I might as well do all the things I didn't dare to think of before in the Land of Water this time."

"But captain, aren't you afraid that this will get back to the higher-ups and be detrimental to the captain?" Aburame Shiho was not reassured and still looked at Yusuke with some concern.

Yusuke lifted up Shiho Aburame's chin, smiled nonchalantly, and said, "Who knows? This was done by Kozaburo, a wandering ninja from the Land of Water. What does it have to do with me, Yusuke Watanabe?"

"Then don't you miss Lady Tsunade?" Aburame Shiho stared at Yusuke with confusion in her eyes.

Yusuke looked up at the sky and said softly, "At present, we each have a lot of things to work on, and Tsunade is not someone who is stuck in a romantic relationship. As long as we have each other in our hearts, that's enough."

After saying that, Yusuke gently patted Aburame Shiho's shoulder and said, "You should go to bed early too." After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the largest room.

Aburame Shiho looked at his back with resentment. Every time, he stopped at the right time, which aroused her interest but ended without any follow-up. She hummed in dissatisfaction.

After returning to his room, he was still immersed in the difficult training. Although he could draw the Flying Thunder God Mark perfectly, the mystery of the Flying Thunder God Technique seemed to be within reach, yet it seemed to be blocked by an invisible wall, making it difficult for him to truly reach it.

As the night deepened, the noise gradually receded like the tide. Except for the few bandits who were on night watch, everyone else had returned to their rooms. He also blew out the candle, ready to find a trace of peace in the darkness and fall asleep.

At this moment, the door was gently pushed open, and a hazy moonlight floated in like a veil. In the faint light, he actually saw a familiar figure.

She has long, black and shiny hair like a waterfall, neatly combed behind her head and elegantly tied with a hairband. Her delicate face is inlaid with a pair of bright and sharp eyes. She is wearing a black dress, which highlights her slender and tall figure, as if she is an elf in the night, quietly descending.

She crawled into his bed without hesitation and clung tightly to his arms.

"Is there no room?" He propped himself up and looked at her with a playful smile on his face.

"Isn't the captain a bandit? Then you have to do what a bandit should do." Aburame Shiho said with courage, with a hint of nervousness and expectation in her voice. After that, she closed her eyes tightly, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly like butterfly wings, which made his heart tremble.

"Woman, you are playing with fire." He whispered in her ear with pretended ferocity, and when she heard it, her body trembled slightly, and then she took the initiative to hug his neck, as if she wanted to merge herself into his arms.

"I will always stay by the captain's side. I just hope that the captain can keep a place for me in his heart." Her hand slowly reached out to his chest and gently stroked his heart. The soft touch plucked his heartstrings like a feather.

"Even if I can't give you anything?" He looked at her motionlessly, his eyes filled with complex emotions.

"The captain has given me everything." She said seriously, and he was a little confused. Then she pointed to the wall and said, "I am the captain's shadow, a unique shadow."

During the time she entered the Anbu, whether working in the Hokage Building or out on missions, Aburame Shiho and Yusuke were almost inseparable, so there was nothing wrong with calling her the shadow.

Moreover, he dared to entrust many things to her who knew nothing at the beginning, and now she can handle many things independently. Gradually, she may have become an irreplaceable existence in his heart.

He sat up and responded softly, "Yeah."

"Thank you, Captain!" Aburame Shiho also knelt up and said in a crying voice. She knew that this "hmm" contained too many emotions.

"No need to thank me." He took her little hand and stroked it gently, "You deserve this."

"Yes!" Then she leaned her head on his shoulder, enjoying this rare warmth.

"It's just that I can't give you any status. Our relationship can never be made public. Is it really okay?" He asked, somewhat reluctantly, staring into her eyes gently.

"I don't want a title, I just want to be with the captain more often." Aburame Shiho gently stroked his face, touched his lips with her nails, and said in a trembling voice, "Is it okay?"

He didn't say anything, but slowly lowered his head and then kissed her gently. Aburame Shiho plucked up the courage to put his other hand into her clothes, and he was not reserved and moved his fingers to his heart's content.

Under the soft moonlight, his hands touched her gently, feeling her temperature, and gradually, their breathing became rapid. His hands gently stroked her hair, and her face was filled with a happy smile.

"Don't you regret it? There's still time." He reached out for her buttons and couldn't help asking again.

"No." She hugged him tightly, refusing to let go, and he took the opportunity to undress her.

Soon, he and Aburame Shiho met frankly. Everything was as beautiful as a dream, and the ambiguous atmosphere quietly permeated the air, and it happened naturally.
