SPECIAL CHAPTER

*CHAPTER S — SPECIAL*

Now I'm going to tell you how Haru and his friends ended up in this mission—and who they were before it all began.

In the world of Ninjas, there exists a vast and complex structure.

*Sixteen Nations:*

- HEIWENG 

- GIVNOM 

- SIKO 

- HIRIGAKURE 

- GONLAND 

- HIBIRAMA 

- GOJO 

- HIMIRE 

- NOMURA 

- CHI-LAND 

- SAKI 

- KOTOAMSKI 

*GIVNOM* is the largest among them, controlling three nations under its name.

Two other nations, *HIJIKATA* and *GISAN*, went extinct due to immigration and famine.

---

*HEIWENG*, a powerful nation, is home to over 30 ninja villages.

The strongest among them is *NIRI* — *The Village of Water*.

Niri has played key roles in the great ninja wars and produced some of the strongest shinobi in the world:

- *Jubi Irugen* 

- *Yitori Irugen* 

- *Shoto Xumi* 

- *Giwán Iminaqo*

…and more legendary figures.

---

After a devastating civil war in Niri—an event remembered as *"The Blood Night"*, many powerful ninjas were lost, including the village's strongest at the time, *Jubi Irugen*.

With their forces depleted, the *Hekai* (*the village leader*) made a desperate move.

He recruited a special unit: one heir from each clan in the village. This team was created as a secret weapon—used only in disasters like the Blood Night to reduce village losses.

They were called the *Death Squad*.

A 32-member team.

Haru was among them.

But they were not yet official ninjas. They hadn't taken the selection exams. So they remained *Unranked*—though stronger than most.

They were only assigned *D- and C-rank missions* to build morale and keep the village running.

---

*The Mission That Changed Everything*

It was supposed to be a low-risk *D-rank* mission—dealing with a few bandits disturbing a small village of non-ninjas.

But when the Death Squad arrived, they were trapped.

The village was empty. The bandits were gone.

They remained stuck inside for *three days*.

That's when Haru separated from the group to investigate the truth. To find out:

- Where did the villagers go?

- Who were these "bandits," really?

- Why was this mission... off?

Then the truth hit.

These were *not bandits*. 

They were *S-rank demons*.

And they weren't after the village.

They were after *him*—Haru.

---

*And that's where the real mission begins.*
