Chapter 430: Iwagakure's Third Tsuchikage Is Here

"You smelly old man!"

This future Fourth Raikage's expression suddenly changed greatly. After he chopped down with his hand knife, he suddenly felt a copious amount of strength grab his wrist. This feeling was like practicing with his father when he was a child, completely unable to resist.

His entire person suddenly stopped.

He couldn't even move.

He was completely dumbfounded.

It had been a long time since he had encountered such a feeling.

The last time was when he had sparred with his father.

"Little Raikage, is this all you've got?"

Aoba's clone, who had transformed into Onoki, raised his gaze and looked at the future Fourth Raikage in front of him. The corners of his mouth curled up into a teasing smile.

Right now, his physical strength had already reached an almost abnormal level.

Let alone this future Fourth Raikage.

Even if the Third Raikage came here...

In a pure competition of strength.

None of them was a match for Aoba.

Right now, he was holding onto the wrist of this future Fourth Raikage. It was as if a strong man had grabbed a weak chick. No matter how the other party struggled, there was no effect. Everything would be in vain.

"You... you... you..."

The Fourth Raikage took in Aoba's expression. He had sufficient evidence to think that Aoba was mocking him. However, he had no other choice. The strength between them was not on the same level. He was not a match at all.

What made him feel the most ashamed was the words "Little Raikage".

If other people called him Little Raikage, he would still be very happy in his heart. His father was the Third Raikage, and his goal was to become a man like his father.

But...

Now, the other party called him Little Raikage.

It made him feel that he had been greatly humiliated!

This was not only a humiliation to him alone but also a humiliation to the Raikage name. It also made him sober in an instant. He put away his inflated mind and deeply knew that he was still a long way from the Raikage.

"Boring little guy."

Aoba looked at this future Fourth Raikage and shook his head helplessly. He felt that the Raikage lineage did not have any humor cells. Of course, he also knew that he was not humorous, so he did not want to continue to waste time with this future Fourth Raikage.

"I have something to talk to your father about. You should go wherever it is cool!"

After saying this, Aoba suddenly exerted strength on his wrist and directly threw this future Fourth Raikage out.

At this moment.

This Fourth Raikage felt his body spinning.

Under the effect of this huge force, his whole body flew backward, drawing a gorgeous parabola in the air, and heavily fell to the ground.

It could be said that he did not leave any face for this little Raikage.

"Damn it!"

The Fourth Raikage almost got up the moment he fell to the ground. There were many Kumogakure ninjas here. He could fall, but he could not lie on the ground all the time.

At this moment.

The Fourth Raikage stared coldly at Aoba.

However, this time, he learned his lesson and did not act rashly. He just watched silently and did not attack Aoba again.

He was not a fool.

He knew just how obvious the difference in strength was when they fought.

What he was best at was the Thunder Release Body Technique. He liked to fight his opponent head-on. This was his strong point. However, he discovered that when he met the other party, his strong point had become a weak point. His opponent was stronger than him. This made him continue to be in a passive state. He could only let his opponent do whatever he wanted.

This feeling made his heart very uncomfortable.

He did not like this feeling of being unable to control his own fate.

...

Aoba saw that the Fourth Raikage was tactful and did not go forward, so he naturally ignored the latter. His feet were still floating away from the ground, directly flying toward the cloud-shrouded suspension bridge in the Kumogakure's mountain.

He had read the memories of many people from Kumogakure.

One of them was Hari.

He was very clear about Kumogakure's internal structure.

He knew that the Kumogakure Building was not far above.

That was the final destination of his trip.

As Aoba flew higher and higher, more and more people in Kumogakure Building focused their attention on Aoba.

"Who is this person?"

"He can actually fly?"

"There aren't many ninjas in the ninja world who can fly!"

"This person... Isn't he the Third Tsuchikage?"

"Tsuchikage?!"

"A Tsuchikage actually dares to swagger to our Kumogakure?"

"This confidence is too much!" The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via /n/ov/el/b/in.

"..."

Kumogakure ninjas stared at Aoba who was in the air and could not help but discuss. However, their voices were still very low. They tried their best to keep their voices low so that the other party, who was flying higher and higher, would not be able to hear them.

Only...

These people say so.

However, deep worry arose in their hearts.

No one knew why the Tsuchikage had come here, and they don't even know who will be the hardest in the collision between Tsuchikage and Raikage.

In addition, the overall situation in the ninja world was not peaceful.

Everyone had different worries in their hearts. After all, this was not a peaceful era that could make people feel at ease.

Who knew when the fire of war would directly burn into Kumogakure, threatening their lives and safety? This made their hearts in a state of no guarantee, and they were extremely worried.

However...

Everyone here was very clear.

Worrying was useless.

Right now, they couldn't do anything. They just quietly watched the old man rise and disappear into the clouds.

...

Kumogakure, Raikage Office.

Step, step, step...

A series of urgent footsteps sounded outside Raikage's office. After that, a Kumogakure ninja quickly ran into Raikage's office.

"Raikage-sama!"

This Kumogakure ninja immediately shouted. His voice was very loud, directly disturbing the silence here. It immediately made the Third Raikage, who was sitting on the huge chair, frown.

"Why are you so anxious, can't you talk a little more calmly?"

The Third Raikage said coldly. Normally, he was an impatient person, but if someone was still so anxious in front of him, he could tell that there must be something urgent.

He said so, but his attention was already on the ninja.

"Yes!"

This Kumogakure ninja immediately stood still and evenly breathed in two breaths of air to let his breath flow over. After that, he looked at the Third Raikage, who was his superior.

"Iwagakure's Third Tsuchikage is here!"

This Kumogakure ninja tried his best to keep his tone steady, but the words he said were too shocking, which immediately made the Third Raikage stand up.

Chapter 431: What Exactly Do You Want to Do?

"What?!"

When the Third Raikage heard the words of this Kumogakure ninja, he suddenly stood up and stared at this ninja with wide eyes, his eyes flashing with disbelief.

"Say it again!"

The Third Raikage did not believe his ears very much. After all, what he had just heard was something that he thought was incredible, and he did not think that such a thing could happen.

"Yes!"

After the ninja heard the Third Raikage's words, his anxious heart calmed down. He did not think too much and repeated what he had just said again, "Iwagakure's Third Raikage is here!"

"Where is he?" The Third Raikage immediately asked. He was no longer entangled in the topic above. Instead, he thought about a new question. After hearing it a second time, he already understood the truth of this matter.

"It should be here soon." The ninja said.

"Okay!"

The Third Raikage immediately walked out of the Raikage Office. His eyes were shining with excitement.

"Since the Tsuchikage has personally come to see me, then I naturally have to properly entertain him!"

The Third Raikage's words were quite refreshing, just like old friends who had not seen each other for many years.

But...

The hearts of everyone present trembled.

They knew very well.

Their Raikage-sama was not an easy person to talk to. He did not have any friendships with the Tsuchikage. The only thing related to Kumogakure recently was that Iwagakure took advantage of the time when Kumogakure was dealing with Kirigakure's attack and sneak attacked them.

This was not a simple matter!

Everyone at the scene realized this problem.

Tsuchikage belongs to those kinds who came with ill intention, while the Raikage was the soldier who will block the water and cover it with earth.

The two may rub off a great spark this time.

For a moment.

Everyone fell silent.

All eyes fell on the Third Raikage.

When the Third Raikage walked out of the Raikage Office, he suddenly stopped and focused his eyes on the distance in front of him.

At this time. The first reveal of this chapter happened through n(0/)vel(b)(j)(n).

A figure slowly walked in.

It was Aoba's advanced paper clone who had transformed into Onoki.

Such a scene was reflected in everyone's eyes. What appeared was the face-to-face confrontation between the Tsuchikage and Raikage. Everyone was sweating, and no one could speak.

"Hahahahaha!"

All of a sudden.

A laugh came from far and near, clearly transmitted into everyone's ears.

"Raikage-dono, long time no see. I miss you so much!" Aoba, disguised as Onoki, stared at the Third Raikage and said with a smile. He had not seen the Third Raikage for a while, but this sentence was said from his own perspective, not from Onoki's perspective.

"Hehehe..."

When the Third Raikage heard Aoba's words, he dryly sneered a few times. He stared at Onoki in surprise. He did not know when Onoki became so strange.

He said such greetings in broad daylight.

It sounded ridiculous.

The most important thing was...

This person was too hypocritical!

The dignified Tsuchikage actually came to his territory and said such words, which made him feel extremely unhappy.

"Hahahaha, I am relieved to see that Raikage-dono is also so happy to see me. Let's go in and talk!"

Aoba laughed again. After that, he ignored the Third Raikage and directly walked in without being invited.

For a moment.

Everyone at the scene couldn't believe what happens in front of them.

They even couldn't believe their ears.

It was only when everyone saw Onoki that Aoba had transformed into swaggering in that everyone realized that this seemingly unbelievable thing was indeed true. It had happened in front of them just like that.

"..."

The Third Raikage looked at Aoba who had already walked in. He felt depressed and was very speechless, but he did not know what to say. He felt extremely helpless. He felt pain in his head and was extremely annoyed.

However.

He held it in and did not explode.

After all.

He still wanted to see what this Tsuchikage in front of him was up to and what he wanted to do.

...

Aoba walked into the Raikage Office. His gaze swept across the room and saw some Kumogakure ninjas standing there. Without hesitation, he waved his hand at the crowd.

"What are you people still standing here for?"

"All of you, go out!"

"I have something to tell your Raikage-sama in private."

"How come you don't have any eyesight at all!"

Aoba complained to these ninjas. He deliberately used a very impatient tone to maintain the character of the annoying feeling he had created when he first appeared.

Sure enough.

As soon as he said this.

The expressions of Kumogakure ninjas at the scene changed greatly.

Almost everyone's faces became ugly. This was their Kumogakure, and Onoki was the one who had just arrived.

This old man was not even a guest.

But...

He was talking as if he was the master of this place.

This made them very unhappy.

They felt that this Tsuchikage was too arrogant and did not put them, Kumogakure, in his eyes. Their impression of Tsuchikage became even worse.

"This..."

The Kumogakure ninjas at the scene could not help but look at each other. They did not want to leave this place. After all, each of them had their own curiosity in their hearts. They all wanted to know what the conversation between Tsuchikage and Raikage would be like.

But...

Now that Tsuchikage said this.

They could not help but look toward the Third Raikage. They understood that the matter here was still based on the Third Raikage.

"You guys can go out."

The Third Raikage said lightly. He understood the expectations of these people and knew that what Onoki did was really too much. But now he also wanted to hear what Onoki's purpose was.

"Yes!"

After everyone heard the Third Raikage's words, everyone nodded helplessly. After that, they left the Raikage Office in turn.

A few minutes later.

Only Aoba disguised as Onoki and the Third Raikage were left here. The scene was very quiet.

"Tsuchikage-dono."

The Third Raikage stared coldly at Aoba. He looked very oppressive, like a volcano that could erupt at any time.

"Now you can tell me, what exactly do you want to do?"

Chapter 432: Because of Stimulation!

The Third Raikage stared coldly at Aoba who was not far in front of him. The doubts in his mind had reached the maximum.

He had never seen such a thing before.

It was clear that they were enemies.

The other party actually comes to his enemy's territory.

It was simply baffling.

The reason why the Third Raikage did not immediately attack the other party was that he wanted to know what the other party was up to.

"I'm here to discuss a business deal with you."

The corners of Aoba's mouth slightly curled up, and a meaningful smile appeared on his face. Overall, he looked extremely strange.

"What business?"

The Third Raikage frowned. He felt that this Tsuchikage was too troublesome to speak. If he asked or said a word, he would not finish his words in one breath. He would not even speak properly.

But...

This Tsuchikage's words arouse his curiosity.

He wanted to know what reason for this Tsuchikage to come to Kumogakure alone.

"I will launch an attack on Konohagakure soon and mobilize most of Iwagakure's ninjas to the battlefield. Do you understand what I mean?" Aoba looked at the Third Raikage with a smile.

"You want me to help you attack Konohagakure?" After hearing Aoba's words, the Third Raikage immediately revealed a sneer. His face became even colder and said, "Tsuchikage, don't take yourself too seriously. Even if I don't have a good impression of Konohagakure, I won't join forces with you to attack Konohagakure. You don't have such qualifications!"

"Hahahaha, Raikage-dono, you misunderstood me. I didn't ask you to attack Konohagakure, and you don't need to attack Konohagakure..." Aoba laughed again. His laughter made the Third Raikage feel a headache, and he couldn't figure out what the other party meant at all.

"What do you want to say?" The Third Raikage's tone obviously became impatient. After that, he waved his hand and said, "If you have something to say, say it quickly. If you have nothing to say, leave. I don't want to hear you say these words again."

"Your temper is still so bad!" Aoba stared at the Third Raikage, his face still smiling. After that, he said something that the Third Raikage could not believe, "I want to tell you that after our Iwagakure ninja went to attack Konohagakure, Iwagakure would be empty. At that time, it would be the best time for your Kumogakure to sneak attacks. The success rate will increase a lot."

"???"

After hearing Aoba's words, a lot of question marks appeared on the Third Raikage's head. He was very puzzled by the other party's words.

"What did you say?!"

"You want me to sneak attack your Iwagakure?"

"Did I hear it wrong?"

"Is there something wrong with your brain?"

"You, the dignified Tsuchikage, want me to sneak attack Iwagakure?"

"Are you playing tricks on me?"

After hearing Aoba's words, the Third Raikage said one sentence after another. He did not believe Aoba's words at all. He felt that there must be a conspiracy here.

It was impossible for normal people to do such a thing.

To personally run to the enemy's base camp and tell the enemy when to launch a sneak attack, this kind of thing would be extremely outrageous just thinking about it!

"I have told you. Whether you believe it or not is your own problem. Now I have nothing to talk to. I am leaving. See you later."

Aoba said slowly.

He didn't expect the Third Raikage to attack Iwagakure at all.

Of course.

He said that without any purpose.

It was just like pretending to be Third Kazekage to negotiate with Onoki.

It was purely to make this matter more complicated.

Now, no matter what decision the Third Raikage made in the future after being fooled by him, he might hesitate in his heart.

Sneak attack on Konohagakure?

It might be exactly what Onoki wanted.

Sneak attack on Iwagakure?

Who knew if there was a trap that had been set up there and was waiting for him to jump in? You must know that they are still at war.

"Wait!"

The Third Raikage suddenly looked in Aoba's direction. His eyes revealed a bright light, and he looked extremely fierce.

"My Raikage Office is not a place where you can come and go as you please!"

The moment the Third Raikage finished speaking, he immediately controlled his body. His figure suddenly flashed, and his entire body was like a bolt of lightning, rushing toward Aoba at an extremely fast speed.

The Third Raikage's purpose for doing this was already very obvious.

He wanted to keep the other party here.

He wouldn't let Aoba leave so easily.

But...

The moment Third Raikage's figure shot out, the other party's figure in front of him suddenly became blurred, and it seemed to be wrapped in a hazy layer.

"Jinton(Dust Release)!"

Aoba suddenly spoke and then a cube appeared on his body, enveloping his whole body.

The Third Raikage immediately stopped his movements.

He had fought with Onoki and had seen the Second Tsuchikage. He was very clear about the destructive power of dust release. As long as he touched this cube, even his strong body would not be able to withstand it.

In the past, he could rely on his extremely high movement speed to avoid dust release.

After all, dust release casting was too long. It was not suitable to be used directly. It needed to be combined with some control abilities, otherwise, it was easy for the enemy to avoid it.

However.

This was the first time he saw such a scene.

In front of him, Onoki directly wrapped his body in the dust release. L1teraryHub hosted the first appearance of this chapter at N0vel.B1n.

Was this self-immolation?

The Third Raikage's head was full of small question marks. One after another, the questions in front of him were occupied by new questions before he could get an answer. He kept adding question marks to his head.

What kind of operation was this?

Third Raikage stopped and stared at the other party who was in the cube.

"Sorry, If I really want to leave your Raikage Office. You can't stop me."

Onoki's indifferent voice sounded. Before Aoba left, he had already thought about using dust release in front of Third Raikage. The purpose was to let the Third Raikage know that he was the Third Tsuchikage Onoki.

Only in this way would the Third Raikage believe him.

After all, in the whole ninja world, there was no second person who knew dust release. As long as he took it out, it was a symbol of identity, similar to an ID number.

"Onoki, what exactly do you want to do? Why do you want to do this?" The Third Raikage really couldn't understand this operation and couldn't help but ask again.

"Because of stimulation!"

The corners of Aoba's mouth curled up again, revealing a charming arc.

Chapter 433: The Konohagakure Intelligence Division Captain Position!

After Qingyu finished speaking, the cube suddenly exploded, and a milky white light instantly lit up the cube.

Hum!

Everything in the cube was purified at this moment.

All turned into molecules.

There was no trace of life left.

Aoba's advanced paper clone also turned into nothingness at this moment.

Just as the Third Raikage had seen, Aoba's clone had no intention of going out at all. He directly used the Dust Release Technique and wrapped himself in it. Then, after the Dust Release Technique erupted, he directly destroyed himself.

After the shadow clone was destroyed, waves of information were directly transmitted into Aoba's brain.

"What the hell?"

The Third Raikage looked at the place where Aoba disappeared. After the cube exploded, it also dissipated. The space where the cube was located had no signs of life at all. Everything had been turned into molecules.

This scene directly made this Raikage dizzy.

He had never seen such a thing.

However...

The Third Raikage was very clear that Onoki was definitely not dead. No one was a fool to commit suicide in such a way. However, he was not clear about where Onoki was.

"Damn it!"

"What kind of place do you think my Raikage Office is?"

"You can come and go as you please?!"

"I am so angry!"

The anger in the Third Raikage's heart had already exploded. Ever since he came into contact with the other party, he had been very angry. Now, he had reached a peak. Originally, he thought that he could vent it out, but who knew that the other party did not give him the chance at all?

Let alone a fight.

There was no place for him to even curse a few words.

The person in front of him disappeared directly after he activated the dust release.

"This is too much!"

The more the Third Raikage thought about it, the angrier he became. Not only was he unable to vent out his anger, but he was also even more furious. Right now, he wished he could directly lead Kumogakure ninja to attack Iwagakure.

However, the other party had just asked him to attack Iwagakure.

With this premise.

He felt that there was a big problem on the contrary.

This was hard to say.

After all...

He felt that the possibility of this being a trap was higher. Onoki didn't look like a fool who would reveal his information to the enemy.

As a result.

The Third Raikage fell into a mess. There was no longer an existence like Hari by his side.

It was to the extent that he lacked sufficient judgment.

It made him feel somewhat at a loss when facing such a situation.

...

In Anbu's dormitory.

Aoba slowly opened his eyes because the clone in Kumogakure also return to his body, bringing back the information.

"Interesting!"

"Things have become interesting!"

"Next is to watch the ninja world fall into great chaos!"

Aoba silently said to himself. He had been in Anbu's dormitory for the past few days and had not gone anywhere. After all, Konohagakure Intelligence Division was cold now. He did not have any work to do. In addition, he had just returned from the frontline. Hiruzen wanted him to rest more.

Gradually.

As time passed.

Three days passed.

Dong Dong...

There was a knock on the door of Aoba's room.

"He's here."

Aoba immediately got up from the bed. During this period of time, no one had been looking for him. He was happy to have nothing to do. Sometimes, he would create a shadow clone and let the shadow clone go out to see the situation through Hiraishin no Jutsu(Flying Thunder God Technique). Then, the clone would send the information back.

Aoba walked to the door and opened it. He immediately saw a figure standing outside the door.

"Brother Eaton!"

Aoba immediately waved his hand to signal for the person in front of him to enter the room.

This person was Morino Eaton, who had returned with him before.

"Aoba, I have many things to deal with these days. I haven't had the time to find you. Now I have something to tell you."

Eaton's face was very serious, even more serious than before. It could be seen that he had experienced many things in the past few days.

His eyes were fixed on Aoba.

There was a complicated look in the depths of his eyes.

"It's like this..."

Seeing that Aoba did not speak, Eaton continued to speak. In fact, even he did not know what to say.

"I don't know if this is good news or bad news for you. You can consider some things, but there are some things you can't. You have to be mentally prepared."

Eaton's mood was also extremely complicated. After these few days of continuous retelling and discussion, deep in his heart, he vaguely felt that Aoba's strength was not as simple as he imagined, but it was definitely not that complicated.

"Sandaime-sama means that Konohagakure's participation in the war is imminent. He hopes that you can treat Danzo again and help Danzo recover quickly to ensure that Konohagakure will be invincible in this ongoing Third Ninja World War."

"Actually, I don't know if this is dangerous for you..."

"So I didn't make any decisions for you."

"I think it would be better for you to judge it yourself."

Eaton was still on Aoba's side in his heart. He didn't treat Aoba as an outsider on the spot, which was why he had these relatively sincere words.

"Brother Eaton, I can't go any longer to treat Danzo-sama!" Without any hesitation, Aoba said, "It's not because I'm selfish, but because I've seen Danzo-sama's condition last time. For Danzo-sama, the best way now to recover is to rest, any other form of disturbance is not good for Danzo-sama's recovery!"

"I understand."

Eaton nodded. In fact, he did not want Aoba to go up again in his heart. However, he felt that he should still pass the message to Aoba. As for how Aoba would choose, it had nothing to do with him.

"Well..."

After thinking for a while, Eaton began to announce other information.

"Now that Anbu's staff is extremely empty, Konohagakure Intelligence Division only has the two of us left. Sandaime-sama intends to promote me to a higher position. At that time, the position of Konohagakure Intelligence Division Captain will be yours!"

As Eaton spoke, his attention was always on Aoba. He wanted to know what kind of reaction Aoba would have when he heard this.

The result was already very clear here. The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via n(0)vel(b)(j)(n).

There was no expression on Aoba's face at all.

It looked like he was listening to a very ordinary thing as if it couldn't stir up any waves in his heart.

Chapter 434: Excuse Me!

"Why don't you have any reaction at all?"

After saying this, Eaton kept his eyes on Aoba. He did not see the kind of result he wanted from Aoba.

"What kind of reaction do you expect from me?"

Aoba pursed his lips helplessly. The position of Konohagakure Intelligence Division Captain was not important to him at all. He had never cared about this at all, much less expected it. It could be said that he did not care at all.

What's more...

Now, only he and Eaton remained in Konohagakure Intelligence Division.

If Eaton was promoted...

He would be alone in Konohagakure Intelligence Division.

In that case.

Does it matter if he becomes the Konohagakure Intelligence Division's Captain?

Aoba did not feel that this matter was attractive at all. On the contrary, it would make him appear in the eyes of more people. Overall, it was not necessarily a good thing.

However.

He was also clear.

Since Eaton had specifically come for this matter.

In that case, that was basically it.

"Um... that... if it was Konohagakure Intelligence Division Captain, you should be more or less happy!"

When Eaton saw that Aoba was not interested in his current seat, he felt a sense of loss for no reason.

It made him a little depressed. L1teraryHub hosted the first appearance of this chapter at N0vel.B1n.

It seemed that his Konohagakure Intelligence Division Captain was not so valuable.

"Brother Eaton, let's talk about the next topic. Is there any other news?" Aoba directly changed the topic.

"..."

The corners of Eaton's mouth twitched slightly. Before he had said this to Aoba, he had thought that Aoba might not like the position of Konohagakure Intelligence Division Captain. However, he had not expected that Aoba would disregard this position to such an extent. It was simply inconceivable.

"Next topic..."

"Hmm..."

"That's right!"

"I still have something to ask you!"

"I want to ask you..."

"How strong are you now?"

Eaton asked the question that had been accumulating in his heart all this time. This question had been bothering him for a long time, and he had not gotten an answer once.

Not long ago.

Aoba was a teenager who needed to be taken care of in his eyes.

However.

After the battle with Iwagakure.

His opinion of Aoba had undergone a huge change. Now, he felt that there was a big problem. Aoba was not as weak as he imagined.

This person was very low-key!

If he hadn't forced himself to ask Aoba whether it was possible to treat Danzo's injuries, Aoba might not have made a move, and Aoba had only made a simple move and cured Danzo's injuries.

If not for the fact that Hiruzen wanted them to go to the battlefield, he wouldn't have known that Aoba could take out such a powerful barrier, and he wouldn't have known that he also have an extremely complicated space-time ability.

And about the thing above...

It was not something that could be easily learned by simply reading a book.

There was a very big problem here.

Eaton was very clear. Aoba definitely had something to hide. He originally didn't want to ask, but he couldn't resist the curiosity in his heart.

"Brother Eaton, are you sure you want to know?"

When Aoba said this, his face became serious. His eyes stared at Eaton, revealing a very serious look.

"I want to know." Eaton nodded.

"Brother Eaton, I have to advise you one more time. The less you know, the better it is for you. You know a lot now. If you want to know more things, I am afraid you will have to pay the price. I hope you can think about this more clearly." Aoba said slowly.

"Price?" Eaton was stunned for a moment.

He did not know what price there was that he could not bear. What he could not understand was what price Aoba could make him pay. After that, he said, "I still want to know. As long as you are willing to say it, I want to listen."

"I understand."

Aoba nodded. He understood that Eaton was already prepared, so he did not say anything else.

Suddenly.

Aoba's figure flashed and appeared in front of Eaton at an extremely fast speed.

This kind of speed was beyond Eaton's expectations.

Not to mention dodging.

Even his eyes could not keep up.

His body's instinctive reaction was too late to make any movements.

Slap!

Aoba slapped Eaton's shoulder, making a crisp sound. His hand strength was not strong, and there was no other characteristic.

This power seemed to have magical power.

There was no pain.

However, it made Eaton freeze in place and unable to move.

"..."

Eaton found that he could not move at all. Not only could he not move his body, but he also could not even mobilize his chakra. He could not even speak. He could only quietly look at Aoba in front of him. A lot of question marks appeared in his head.

Was this price he had to pay?

Eaton gradually understood what Aoba meant, but he was not very clear about what Aoba was planning to do.

"Brother Eaton."

At this time, Aoba slowly spoke. His eyes stared at Eaton, and there was a little complicated emotion in his eyes.

"During this period of time..."

"You have always taken care of me."

"This makes me very touched."

"So even though you know a lot of my secrets."

"But I choose to believe that you won't tell anyone!"

"I didn't use any means to interfere."

"Now that you want to know more, I have to control your words. Otherwise, I will be in a very troublesome situation."

Aoba said one sentence after another. His tone was very flat, without any fierce words. It seemed like he was speaking ordinary words.

However.

After hearing these words.

Eaton suddenly realized.

Aoba seemed to be going to lay his cards on the table with him.

He might also know more secrets.

For a moment.

He couldn't help but look forward to it even more.

"Actually..."

Aoba's voice sounded again, clearly transmitted into Eaton's ears. It was still the same steady tone as before.

"I originally planned to change a part of your memories. That way, you wouldn't realize it and would appear very natural."

"In the end, I still couldn't bear to."

"After all, Brother Eaton, you really treat me very well!"

"So..."

"I can only seal your mouth!"

"Sorry..."

"Excuse me!"

After Aoba finished his last sentence, his figure flashed again, directly appearing in front of Eaton, raising his hand to slap Eaton's neck.

Chapter 435: I'm Actually Very Powerful, but I Keep a Low Profile and Don't Say Anything!

Hum!

After Aoba's hand hit Eaton's adam apple. Suddenly, a burst of chakra surged out and made Eaton's throat tremble slightly.

In a split second.

This chakra condensed into the energy needed for the seal.

It quickly gathered toward Eaton's throat.

Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal!

Aoba implants Eaton with a seal that not allowing him to say anything about Aoba. This did not tamper with Eaton's own memory, it just restrain the content of Eaton's words.

If it was another person. The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via n(0)vel(b)(j)(n).

Aoba would not do this.

The reason was very simple.

People who can't speak can't still keep the secret completely, after all, their memories may be read by other people.

Therefore, he would still resort to the method of destroying corpses.

Or perhaps he would spend a bit of time doing something to the person's memory, but this was too troublesome, it was not as clean as destroying corpses.

"Another layer of memory protection."

After successfully implanting Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal for Eaton, Aoba raised his right hand which had just used chakra, and slapped Eaton's forehead.

Snapped!

Along with a collision sound.

Aoba directly sent a strand of chakra into Eaton's consciousness.

This could effectively block memories.

This was like a condom for Eaton's brain. Once external chakra entered Eaton's brain, it would be effectively blocked by this condom, greatly avoiding the risk of Eaton's brain being read.

Moreover...

When this protective condom was broken, Aoba would be alerted and understand that someone was reading Eaton's memory.

At the same time.

The chakra in Aoba's hand became much softer, and once again sent a strand of chakra into the space between Eaton's eyebrows.

In a flash.

A black circle mark appeared on Eaton's forehead.

Then it quickly disappeared.

The whole process happened in the blink of an eye.

Eaton didn't even feel anything and it was already over. Other than his body not moving, there was a numb feeling on his tongue. It was as if he had been using it for a long time.

"It's done."

Aoba took a deep look at Eaton. He had already implanted Eaton with the Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal. He also protected Eaton's brain with chakra protection. Finally, he left a Flying Thunder God Formula on his forehead.

These three approaches.

It perfectly guarantees that there will be no problem with Eaton's memory being read.

"Release."

With a thought from Aoba, the seal on Eaton's body was removed and he immediately returned to his original appearance.

"This..."

Eaton was stunned for a moment. He just felt that it was a little strange, but he was not very clear about what exactly happened. He just stared at Aoba blankly. The meaning of his eyes seemed to be waiting for Aoba's explanation.

"Brother Eaton, I left a Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal on you. Now you can't say anything about me, so you won't accidentally tell my secret!" Aoba explained to Eaton, "It's not that I don't believe in Brother Eaton. It's just that my matters are too complicated. This way, I can directly avoid many unnecessary troubles."

"..."

Eaton was stunned. After hearing Aoba's words, he tried to say something about Aoba.

For example, it was Aoba who treated Danzo-sama!

Another example was that Aoba was Tsunade-sama's disciple!

But...

He could only think about it.

When he wanted to say it, he felt numb at the base of his tongue. He was completely dumbfounded and could not speak at all.

"Is this Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal"

Eaton silently thought to himself. He was very shocked. He had heard of such a seal before. It was a seal that only existed at Danzo's Root Organization. He did not expect Aoba to have such a method.

"Now, let me answer your question."

After completing Eaton's seal, Aoba finally rests at ease. Since Eaton knew a lot, it's okay to expose a little bit.

"You want to know my strength..."

"Then let's talk about medical ninjutsu first!"

"It's not an exaggeration to say..."

"Although my medical ninjutsu may not be as good as Tsunade-sensei, after all, I haven't learned medical ninjutsu too systematically, but my overall medical ability is currently better than Tsunade-sensei!"

"This is not bragging!"

"Of course..."

"Even Tsunade-sensei doesn't know about this!"

Aoba explained to Eaton. He could say this not because Eaton had Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal, but because he had felt that Eaton was really thinking for him these days. Therefore, he felt that he should not hide this from Eaton.

Aoba read Tsunade's memory.

Therefore, he was very clear about the extent of Tsunade's medical ability!

He understood that if it was a competition of the purest medical ninjutsu, then he was still not a match for Tsunade. But if it was a test of the overall medical ability, then he still had a sealing technique that could be used together with medical ninjutsu.

The effect of the sealing technique and medical ninjutsu was very good.

This was something that Aoba had verified from Danzo.

"This... this... this..."

When Eaton heard Aoba's words, he was completely shocked. He did not doubt the authenticity of Aoba's words. It was precisely because he believed Aoba's words that he felt that this matter was a bit too terrifying.

How long had it been since Tsunade-sama had accepted Aoba as her student?

His medical ability actually surpassed his teacher's!

What kind of terrifying talent was this?

"As for the abilities of the other side..."

Aoba raised his hand to pinch his chin, pretending to be in deep thought. In front of Eaton, he only displayed the sealing technique, so he didn't want to say more about what he didn't show.

"Just take it that I have mastered many sealing techniques!"

"I am indeed not a member of the Uzumaki Clan."

"But through Kushina's book, I self-studied more than 80% of the sealing techniques in it, so you can think that I have the fighting ability of the Uzumaki Clan's Sealing Ninjas."

"As for the other abilities..."

When Aoba said this, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, revealing a touch of an evil smile. He thought of the lines in the movies he had seen before.

"I'm actually very powerful, but I keep a low profile and don't say anything!"

Chapter 436: Golden Carp Won't Stay in a Pond Forever

Eaton stared at Aoba in shock. Although Aoba did not tell him all the content, just the words he said now were enough to make him feel incomparably shocked!

Low profile!

That's right!

It was low profile!

Before this, he had faintly felt that Aoba's strength would be very strong, but he never thought that Aoba's strength would be so strong.

This was completely beyond his expectations!

He had mastered medical ninjutsu and knew the sealing technique comparable to the Uzumaki clan. Just these two points, there was no need to add anything else, and it was enough to become a very powerful ninja in this world.

More importantly...

Eaton believed in Aoba's words. He believed that Aoba was indeed low-key and there were still many abilities that he did not reveal. However, he did not dare to think about it. He felt that Aoba's current strength was already very exaggerated.

Of course.

Aoba was indeed holding back.

He didn't say everything.

Otherwise...

If he were to say that he had mastered the Dust Release, Magnet Release, Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu, and the Lightning Release Body Technique...

Eaton would find out.

The ability that Aoba had grasped by himself was almost equivalent to the current five Kage of the Ninja World!

After all, Aoba already possessed the ability of four Kage, and the Third Hokage's ability was almost negligible.

"Brother Eaton, other than my matters, I won't restrict you in any way. As for the position of Konohagakure Intelligence Division Captain, I actually don't really want to do it. If there are other options, help me fight for them." Aoba faintly said to Eaton. Now that he was equivalent to half-laying his cards on the table with Eaton, he didn't have so many worries when speaking.

"I understand." Eaton nodded. At this time, he gradually understood how terrifying this subordinate of his had been.

"Oh right..."

Aoba seemed to have suddenly thought of something. He immediately raised his eyes and looked at Eaton. The expression on his face changed from serious to smiling. He looked very relaxed.

"I have something to tell you."

"I almost forgot."

"Here."

"This is for you!"

As Aoba spoke, he immediately took out a notebook from his pocket. The notebook looked new, but the pages in the notebook had already become thick. It could be seen that it had been flipped open many times in this period of time.

"This is..." Eaton's heart jumped fiercely. He vaguely realized something, and his whole person became excited.

"This is the latest work. As usual, I'll show it to you first. After you finish reading it, you can arrange to publish it. The signature is still Fugaku." Aoba said indifferently. After he finished speaking, he handed the notebook in his hand directly to Eaton.

"Hu..."

After Eaton heard Aoba's words, he couldn't help but take a deep breath. Because of this matter, he was so excited that he couldn't speak.

His hands trembled.

He immediately opened the book.

His gaze focused on a line of text on the title page.

[Golden Carp Won't Stay in a Pond Forever]

Eaton did not quite understand the meaning of these words combined together, but even if he was not very clear, he still felt that it was extremely domineering when he read it, making him feel very shocked.

After that.

He quickly opened the notebook.

The familiar beginning.

It was the draft he saw earlier that go beyond Teacher Bai at the very beginning.

But...

Eaton suddenly raised his head and focused his gaze on Aoba, his eyes flashing with doubt.

"Aoba, I still remember the scene at that time. Did you really give up the Chunin Exam because of inspiration?"

At this time.

Eaton once again thought about this question.

He felt that there were many things in the past that has been easily resolved, but now it seemed that it was not the case anymore.

After all...

With Aoba's strength.

It could be said that passing Chunin Exams would not waste any time and experience.

It would not disturb any of his thoughts at all.

It was precisely because of this.

Eaton felt that what Aoba said back then was just an excuse and it was not really like this.

"Hahahahaha..."

After hearing Eaton's words, Aoba immediately raised his head and laughed. He had almost forgotten about this matter. Now that it was mentioned, he suddenly felt that it was quite interesting. The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via n(0)vel(b)(j)(n).

"It's fine to not mention this matter. You just need to know that I have no intention of passing the Chunin Exams. I just want to go to experience it. There is no need to care too much about it."

Aoba waved his hand. He did not want to talk too much about what happened at that time. After all, he did want to be friends with the people there at that time, but in the end, all he got was alienation and suspicion.

Thinking about it now.

He still felt a little uncomfortable.

"Brother Eaton, if there is nothing else, you can go back to read the novel."

Aoba directly issued the order to evict the guest.

There was no courtesy at all.

If it was in the past, he would still pay attention when talking to Eaton. After all, at that time, he had not revealed his identity and needed to consider Eaton's thoughts.

Now it was different.

At that time, things were different.

It was not that Aoba had changed.

It was that Aoba's position in Eaton's heart had changed.

In the ninja world, no matter where the strong man goes, he will still be looked at highly by others.

"Yes."

Eaton nodded. He didn't think too much about it. Regarding the question just now, he was just asking on a whim. He didn't really want to know the answer.

The thing that occupied his heart now...

It was the notebook in his hand.

The last time he read the beginning, he was already unable to stop himself. It was just that the story was not finished at that time, and he could not read it even if he wanted to.

Now it was possible!

Then he had to look at it!

Immediately.

Eaton took the notebook and headed back to his office. He was not sad that Aoba had put Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal on him, on the contrary, he was very happy that Aoba had told him about it.

Now he already knew.

Aoba was not as bad as the rumors said, but a low-key genius, so low-key that it made people feel very terrified!

After Eaton left.

Only Aoba was left in the room.

Aoba looked in the direction where Eaton left, and the stone hanging in his heart slowly lowered.

During this period of time.

He had always been considering it.

How should he deal with Eaton's matter?

In his heart, he was very clear that no matter what kind of purpose Eaton had, the other party had truly done many things for him.

Chapter 437: See Orochimaru Again!

Unknowingly.

Three days passed.

During this period of time.

The entire ninja world maintained a rare calm.

Only...

This calm was the last calm before the storm.

Almost everyone in the villages knew that the storm was coming.

Iwagakure's people felt it the most clearly. They knew very clearly that they had just fought with Konohagakure ninjas at the border. The casualties were still relatively heavy. Moreover, Sunagakure's Third Kazekage personally came to the village. It was unknown what he had said to their Third Tsuchikage, which made people panic now. But everyone was mentally prepared to fight.

Sunagakure situation was similar to Iwagakure's. They had just finished the battle with Amegakure and were still in the stage of recuperating. The Third Tsuchikage had come to find them and forcibly pulled them into the battlefield.

Kumogakure was a little confused. They were now in an all-out war with Kirigakure, and the battle was getting more and more intense. This involved a lot of energy in itself, not to mention that after the Third Tsuchikage visit, they did not know how to deal with the next situation. Especially after losing Hari, the Third Raikage lacked judgment in decision-making, and he did not know how to decide on many things.

Kirigakure was completely focused on Kumogakure. After Aoba's instigation, they all thought that Kumogakure had been hindering Kirigakure's development all along.

As for Konohagakure...

The situation was the most complicated.

Over the past few days, Hiruzen had confirmed that Iwagakure was going to launch an all-out attack on Konohagakure. He understood that this battle could not be avoided, so he could only brace himself to accept the challenge and prepare for a full-scale battle.

...

In the opposite room of the Hokage's office.

There were only two people in this room now. One of them was Shimura Danzo, who was lying on the bed with gauze wrapped around his body. The other was Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was sitting by the bed wearing the Hokage's robe.

"Danzo, many things have happened in the village recently. If only you were healthy, it would be much easier for me to deal with it." Hiruzen stared at Danzo and sighed. In the past, he did not feel too obvious. This was like an elite who was usually glamorous outside. At home, there was a wife who takes care of everything in an orderly manner. Suddenly his wife was sick. The pile of tedious housework made this elite a headache.

"..." Danzo silently moved the single eye that was exposed to the outside. Right now, his entire body was in a state of numbing itchiness. He couldn't even speak and could only silently watch all of this. However, after this period of silence, he also understood a principle. He was still not hidden enough, and there was actually someone who hid even deeper than him. This was truly unexpected.

"Danzo, you are also very clear about the situation outside. We must fight this battle, but I have an unclear decision in my heart..." Hiruzen slowly said, his face revealing a difficult expression. After that said, "If we, Konohagakure, want to win this battle, then we must send a ninja with prestige who can suppress everyone. Right now, I can only think of one person, and that is Hatake Sakumo, who has the epithet Konoha White Fang!"

"..." Danzo still listened silently, not saying a word. It was not that he did not want to speak, but that he could not speak at all. He faintly felt that Aoba could heal him in one go, but he did not want to fully treat him. He wanted to remind Hiruzen to pay attention to Aoba, but he could not say anything, not to mention that under the premise of the Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal, he could not say anything about Aoba.

"But..."

Hiruzen did not know what Danzo was thinking, nor did he know the changes in Danzo's thoughts. He was still immersed in the matter of the current war.

"The current Hatake Sakumo already has a very strong reputation!"

"The commendation given to him by the daimyo has reached the level of letting him wear a half-sleeved Hokage robe!"

"Once he is allowed to make achievements in the Third Ninja World War..."

"I'm afraid it won't be long..." The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via /n/ov/el/b/in.

"Hatake Sakumo would become Konohagakure's Fourth Hokage!"

"Do you understand what I mean?"

Hiruzen's face was full of bitterness and helplessness. He was very clear that the current situation was very unfavorable to him, but he really had no other way.

"But if I don't use Hatake Sakumo..."

"I'm afraid it will cause even more gossip in the village!"

"There are already some voices in the village now."

"After all, I just let many Sensor Ninjas go to the battlefield. They died on the battlefield, and their families are already dissatisfied with me."

"Danzo..."

"What do you think I should do?"

Hiruzen complained to Danzo. There were many things in his mind that he could not understand. It was as if he was confused by the situation.

"Mmm... Mmm..."

After hearing Hiruzen's question, an idea popped up in Danzo's mind. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it. He was so anxious that he couldn't open his mouth if he wanted to speak. Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"Danzo, what do you want to say? Do you have an idea?"

Hiruzen's eyes slightly lit up. He looked at Danzo as if he saw a ray of light. This was his hope to continue sitting in the Hokage position.

"I will go find that person immediately!"

Hiruzen knew very well that the descendant of the Uzumaki Clan definitely did not go to the battlefield. Then, he could continue to treat Danzo's injuries and at least allow Danzo to speak.

Instantly.

Hiruzen immediately stood up and left.

The moment Hiruzen turned around, a hint of fear flashed in Danzo's eyes. He thought back to the figure hidden in the dark and felt a chill run down his spine.

...

In Anbu's dormitory.

These few days, Aoba was in the dormitory. He did not especially run out. If there was anything, he would arrange a shadow clone. Through the advanced paper clone method, he would become someone else to do it. To a great extent, he would not be suspected.

This led to the current turmoil in the world, but it had nothing to do with him. No one would think of him.

Dong dong dong...

All of a sudden.

At this moment.

There was a knock on his room door.

"Coming."

A small question mark popped up in Aoba's head. He instinctively felt that the person who came was Eaton. After all, no one would come directly to the Anbu dormitory to look for him except for Eaton.

But...

What did Eaton want to talk to him about?

Aoba walked to the door and opened it. His eyes fell on the person at the door, and his pupils suddenly shrank slightly.

This person...

It was not Eaton!

He was one of Konoha Sannin, Orochimaru!

Report chapter Comments

Chapter 438: Teuchi Takeout

"Orochimaru-sama?!"

Aoba looked at the man in front of him. His bluish-white skin combined with those dim yellow snake eyes made him look sickly.

How could Orochimaru come to this place?

A big question mark popped up in Aoba's head. He vaguely felt that something was wrong with this kind of thing, but he did not show the slightest panic, still maintaining a calm appearance.

Aoba sized up Orochimaru.

Orochimaru was also sizing up Aoba.

Their gazes collided.

"Yamanaka Aoba, aren't you going to invite me in for a seat?"

Orochimaru said with a smile. When he spoke, he couldn't help but use his tongue to lick the corner of his mouth. He looked extremely demonic.

"Please come in."

Aoba nodded silently and took a step back. Right now, he still had some doubts in his heart. He wasn't sure what Orochimaru's purpose for coming here was.

However...

Since the other party had already come.

Then he had nothing to fear!

He might as well meet up with this legendary Konoha Sannin.

As Aoba moved out of the way, Orochimaru walked in. As he walked, he used his yellow snake-like eyes to size up his surroundings.

"The smell here is so familiar!"

Orochimaru said to himself meaningfully. As he spoke, his gaze fell on Aoba, constantly observing the changes in his expression. He wanted to know Aoba's specific reaction.

"Oh?" Aoba was puzzled and immediately looked at Orochimaru. The corners of his mouth curled up into a smile and he said, "Has Orochimaru-sama come to the Anbu dormitory before?"

"Of course I came, that's why I said familiar!" Orochimaru smiled slightly. He met Aoba's gaze and tried to probe Aoba. He vaguely felt that there was something wrong with Aoba, but now he had not grasped any substantial evidence.

"Did Orochimaru-sama come to find me for something?" Aoba no longer beat around the bush with Orochimaru. He went straight to the point and asked Orochimaru. After all, they were not familiar with each other. For the other party to find him, it was obvious that the other party had discovered something. This way, it would be better to bring it up now than the other party constantly probing him.

"Of course, there are some things."

Orochimaru nodded. His movements were slow and he was not anxious at all. His pair of snake-like eyes had always been on Aoba. Occasionally, he would stick out his tongue and lick. He seemed to be at ease as if everything was in his grasp.

"Recently, I have been in charge of Anbu. I have made some new discoveries about some things that I have neglected."

The corners of Orochimaru's mouth curved up even higher. The evil smile on his face made him look mysterious.

"Just a few months ago..."

"My laboratory was robbed."

"Someone stole more than ten bottles of Corpse Dissolving Water from me."

"Have you seen that thief before?"

Orochimaru's eyes suddenly narrowed, as if he had discovered some secret, staring fixedly at Aoba.

This gaze seemed to say that Aoba was this thief.

It was just that he did not make it so clear!

Such a scene.

If it was a person with a bad mentality...

They might have already given themselves away.

"I don't know." Aoba shook his head indifferently. There was no change on his face.

"I think you might know," Orochimaru said meaningfully.

"Orochimaru-sama, if I'm not wrong, are you suspecting me?" Aoba still did not beat around the bush with Orochimaru. Instead, he directly said what the other party meant. He just stared at Orochimaru as if he was talking about a very ordinary thing. There was no fluctuation in his emotions at all.

"You are a bit interesting!" Orochimaru smiled and nodded. After that, he strode toward Aoba, getting closer and closer to him.

Orochimaru added, "Since you said it so directly, then I won't beat around the bush with you. You are right. I suspect that person is you!"

"Orochimaru-sama, do you know where this place is?"

Aoba was still very calm. He did not know where Orochimaru had deduced this matter through, but he was sure that Orochimaru definitely did not have evidence. Otherwise, he would not have continuously probed and just directly attacked.

"This is Konohagakure Intelligence Division!"

"The ninjas in our Konohagakure Intelligence Division will interrogate the prisoners to get answers!"

"Are you going to interrogate me here?"

Aoba said neither haughty nor humble. When he faced Orochimaru, he did not show the slightest bit of cowardice. It was as if he was not facing Orochimaru, but a very ordinary person and was trying to reason with that person.

"You make me feel even more interesting." The corners of Orochimaru's mouth curled up even higher. He shook his head and said, "I don't need to interrogate you. I believe that you will say it yourself in the future."

"That would be a pity." Aoba spread out his hands and made a helpless gesture.

"I have nothing to do so I came to see you. In the future, we both will have a lot of dealing with. So it doesn't matter if you have an answer today. I won't disturb you anymore. I'm leaving."

As Orochimaru spoke, he turned and walked out of Aoba's room. As he said, he did not stay here to make things difficult for Aoba.

Orochimaru walked toward the door step by step.

Aoba, on the other hand, had been staring at Orochimaru without saying a word, silently acknowledging Orochimaru's departure.

A few steps later.

Orochimaru walked to the door of Aoba's room. He stopped and turned his head slightly. His pair of pale yellow snake-like eyes slanted slightly and focused on Aoba.

"Aoba, there is one more thing. The person outside the door that day was you, right?"

Orochimaru seemed to be asking. In fact, he had a feeling that he had already discovered it. After he finished speaking, he did not wait for Aoba's answer and walked out again.

"Which door?" Aoba asked indifferently.

"Hahahahaha!"

Orochimaru did not answer Aoba's question. Instead, he laughed loudly and left, disappearing into the night.

After Orochimaru left.

There was only Aoba left here.

Aoba immediately closed the door and sat on a chair, his eyes filled with doubt.

"What did Orochimaru find?"

Aoba knew that Orochimaru must have found something, so he found him. Moreover, Orochimaru did not have any substantial evidence, but in his heart, he was almost certain.

This was not a good sign.

Aoba did not want to be targeted by Orochimaru.

That would be really troublesome for him.

One must know...

Orochimaru had the reputation of a ninja world scientist.

Even at this time, Orochimaru had the research and developed all kinds of ninjutsu.

Aoba just did not expect that Orochimaru would find him at this time and speak so inexplicably.

He hated this way of speaking.

It seemed like he had said it.

But it also seemed like he had said nothing.

It made you feel like he knew something, but in reality, he didn't seem to know anything.

To put it this way, it was strange.

Aoba felt that if it was someone else with a bad psychological quality, they would definitely be shaken by Orochimaru's repeated words and reveal different degrees of problems.

"I don't care."

Aoba ignored Orochimaru. Instead, he lay down on the iron bed. Right now, all he had to do was to obediently wait, wait for time to pass, and wait for the war to break out.

...

Half a day later.

Dong Dong Dong!

There was the sound of knocking again.

"Coming."

Aoba slowly got up, and some question marks appeared on his head again. Why did the dormitory, which no one usually came to, become lively now?

Creak...

Aoba opened the door and immediately saw a man in a white chef uniform standing outside the door, holding a bag in his hand.

This man was Ramen Ichiraku's boss, Teuchi.

"Brother Teuchi?" When Aoba saw Teuchi, his eyes suddenly lit up, and his eyes flashed with confusion. He continued to ask, "Why are you here?"

"You brat, you have been back for so many days, but you don't come and see me. If not for the fact that I heard a guest mention that you were back, I would have thought that you had died on the battlefield. I brought you a bowl of ramen to eat. Consider it my treat!" Teuchi said with a smile. When he smiled, his eyes had already narrowed into slits.

"So considerate?" Aoba was stunned, and his heart suddenly surged with warmth. He and Teuchi were indeed friends, but he did not expect that Teuchi would personally bring takeout to his door. This service was already very good.

"Do you think I have no conscience like you!" Teuchi rolled his eyes at Aoba, so hard that his narrowed eyes could not be seen at all.

"Thank you, Brother Teuchi. Then I won't be polite!" Aoba immediately took the ramen that Teuchi handed over. Needless to say, he was really hungry. Especially after smelling the ramen aroma, his index finger suddenly moved, and his stomach was roaring with excitement.

"It's good that you can come back alive!"

Teuchi sighed and sat on the chair in Aoba's room. He happened to sit opposite Aoba, and the smile on his face disappeared. He looked a lot more serious.

"Who knows how many people will die when the war breaks out fully!" Teuchi sighed.

"Casualties can not be avoided in a war." Aoba opened the ramen cover, picked up the chopsticks, and directly eat it up.

"I don't know when we will reach a peaceful period." Teuchi was still sighing with emotion, but when he said this, he secretly glanced at Aoba a few more times.

"The current war is actually laying the foundation for future peace. If you are willing to give up so many years, what you will get is a long-term future." Aoba quickly sent the noodles into his mouth, and the strong fragrance continued to overflow from his lips and teeth, making his taste buds feel a great sense of excitement.

"That's true!" Teuchi nodded. Although he was just a ramen seller, he could hear a lot of conversations between the people who came and went. The current war was unavoidable. After all, the strength of each country was not equal. This kind of friction would continue to occur. Rather than continuing the friction like this, it is better to have it released in one go.

"Brother Teuchi, how was Noodle House's business while I was away?" Aoba took the initiative to talk. He did not like to be asked frequently, so he took the initiative to ask. It was not that he wanted to know something, but it was purely that he could avoid being asked.

"Just so-so." Teuchi gave an evaluation that he was not very satisfied with.

"Right."

Teuchi seemed to have suddenly thought of something. He stared at Aoba who was eating ramen. He bowed slightly and moved closer to Aoba.

"After you left, two girls came to find you. They were the two people who were in the same group as you in the Chunin Exams." Teuchi said in a low voice.

"Saki and Rin?" Aoba continued to eat ramen. L1teraryHub hosted the first appearance of this chapter at N0vel.B1n.

"It's the two of them." Teuchi nodded and continued, "They seem to have something they want to talk to you about. From their expressions, it seems that they are quite impatient."

"I don't care."

Aoba waved his hand. If there was anyone who he did not want to see, it would be these two girls.

Apart from that.

It was the three major clans of Ino-Shika-Cho.

Nara clan.

Akimichi clan.

Yamanaka clan.

These three clans all belonged to Konohagakure's old clan!

But...

There was a lot of class in them.

Every person in the family, from the moment they were born, would undergo a simple division based on their bloodline and talent.

Aoba was the lowest level.

It was not that such a division system was bad, but that such a division system did not have a way for low-level people to turn over.

Until now.

Aoba did not have a good impression of these three clans including the current generation of Ino-Shika-Cho. From the outside, they seemed to be the future star of Konohagakure's old clan. However, only the people in the clan knew that when they were dealing with some things, the pride in their eyes had already given them a sense of superiority.

This was something that outsiders could not see.

This kind of feeling was like going to a restaurant to eat. Every waiter, including the supervisor, manager, and so on would smile at the customers, speaking in a warm and gentle voice, showing a very polite side, and making the customers have a good impression.

But on the other side.

What may appear was the mutual exclusion between the waiters, the unreasonable and indifferent reprimand of the supervisor, and the manager's suspicion and disapproval from the heart.

These were all problems that the Ino-Shika-Cho clan have.

Aoba saw these things clearly.

Because of this.

He had developed a strong sense of disgust toward these clans.

"They won't find me for anything good. I'm too lazy to have too much contact with them, so..."

Aoba paused and looked at Teuchi.

"Don't bother with them!"

Chapter 439: The Commander of Konohagakure Ninja Army!

Reborn in Konoha as the Anbu Torturer Chapter 439 The Commander of Konohagakure Ninja Army!

After saying this, Aoba no longer cared about these things and had no intention of continuing on this topic.

Teuchi looked at Aoba, who was eating ramen not far away, and nodded silently. He seemed to understand some of the reasons.

"Aoba, I have another question. You have to answer me..."

Teuchi did not continue to dwell on the previous topic.

"Will Minato really come back after the war breaks out?"

Teuchi asked doubtfully. He shifted the topic to Minato. This was what he was most concerned about at the moment, and also the most important thing for him to find Aoba.

In his heart, he believed Aoba's words.

He understood that as long as Minato appear on the battlefield, the battle would end.

But...

The problem was very obvious.

When would Minato return?

This was a very important question that Teuchi was concerned about.

"Brother Teuchi, I have a very strong feeling that it won't be long before Minato returns. He will definitely come back before the war ends!"

Aoba said slowly.

He was still very confident in Minato.

After all, in the original story, Minato had already learned the Sage Mode, but he was not so proficient in it. In terms of battery life, it was not very good.

But...

Even if the battery life was not enough and it was not durable enough, the short burst was still there!

Aoba vaguely felt that Minato had already mastered the Sage Mode, but the turmoil in the ninja world was not so strong that Minato was not in a hurry to come out, and still continued to practice in Mount Myoboku.

Because of this.

Aoba judged that Minato was still practicing in Mount Myoboku, waiting for the war to break out at any time. As long as the war began, Minato would return and come to the battlefield.

That was why Aoba wanted to do his best to stir up trouble so that the war could develop quickly and become more and more intense.

"I am relieved that you are sure." Teuchi nodded. He said that he was relieved, but it seemed that he was still a little worried. He was not in a good mood.

"Brother Teuchi, don't worry. This war won't affect our Konohagakure much. The war won't spread to the village," Aoba comforted Teuchi.

"I know." Teuchi nodded heavily.

After the two of them chatted for a while, Aoba finished the ramen in front of him.

"Aoba, there's nothing else. I'll go back first. Come and eat ramen when you have nothing to do."

After giving a reminder, Teuchi left Aoba's dormitory, restoring peace to the place.

"Looks like the war is about to begin!"

Aoba sighed silently. These past few days, he had already felt a sense of impending doom. Coupled with the work he had done earlier, this made him very clear that it was basically just one or two days at most.

This was in line with his expectations.

The development of the war he had hoped for was like this.

Everything went smoothly.

After that.

Aoba laid back on the iron bed and slowly closed his eyes. He did not want to go out during this period of time. He just waited here silently for the war to begin.

Gradually.

Aoba fell asleep.

After all, it was dark here and he had nothing to do, so it was easy for him to fall asleep.

Dong Dong Dong...

After an unknown period of time.

There was another knock on the door.

"???"

Aoba slowly opened his sleepy eyes and looked in the direction of the dormitory door.

What happened these days?!

In the past, no one would come to his room, but recently, there had been many people coming over.

These few days, there seemed to be more people coming than he had stayed in his dormitory room.

"Coming."

Aoba did not know who was knocking on the door, but he still quickly walked toward the door.

Creak...

Along with the friction of the door and door frame, the room door was opened. What entered Aoba's eyes were two young girls.

These two young girls were Saki and Rin.

"Why are you here?"

When Aoba saw the two girls, he could not hide his frown. His gaze fell on the two of them. After what happened earlier, his impression of the two girls was not good, and he was not willing to have more in-depth communication with them.

"Aoba, we have thought about it for a long time. There are still some things we want to say to you..." Saki took a step forward. She looked at Aoba with a complicated expression, and her voice was solemn.

"You better not say anything more."

Aoba directly shook his head and interrupted Saki. Since the Chunin Exams ended, he had no more good feelings for these two girls, Nara Saki and Akimichi Rin.

"For me, the Chunin Exams have already ended, and there will be no more intersection between us. What you think of me is your own business. It has nothing to do with me."

Aoba's tone was indifferent. He did not want to talk to them at all, especially when the two girls sent Kaze to read his memories. These things had touched the part that he was unhappy about.

It was those prejudice that made him deeply aware of the special arrogant feeling produced in a clan like Ino-Shika-Cho.

Now, he had already left the scope of the Chunin Exams.

Then, he no longer cared about this sort of thing.

However, he also didn't want to have any more interactions with the two girls. To him, this was something completely meaningless.

"You..."

When Saki heard Aoba's cold words, the expression of guilt on her face suddenly changed. She originally felt that she had wronged Aoba and wanted to apologize to him. However, after Aoba said that, she suddenly felt a sense of anger.

"You look fine!"

"We heard that you went to the battlefield. We were quite worried. We were afraid that something would happen to you!"

"But thinking about it..."

"Since you can come back, it means that you are fine!"

"It seems that we are worried too much!"

Saki said in a bad mood. Even she did not know why she became like this while talking. She had originally come to care about Aoba, but her mood suddenly rose. She could not control it at all.

Rin, who was standing at the side, saw the change in Saki's mood. Her eyes flashed with worry.

At this moment, she suddenly discovered that Saki was actually a knife mouth tofu heart.

She was very clear about this point!

Although Rin did not say anything and usually did not express any opinions, completely focusing on Saki's opinion, it did not mean that she did not have the ability to think. She still saw many things.

For example, they came here to look for Aoba.

It was completely Saki's idea.

In fact.

When Aoba rushed to the frontline battlefield together with the other Anbu, the two of them had come here to find Aoba.

At that time, the two of them did not know Aoba's specific room.

Of course.

It was useless even if he knew.

Because Anbu's dormitory was already empty.

There was no trace of Aoba at all.

After that.

They also went to Ramen Ichiraku, chatted about Aoba with Teuchi, and talked with Fugaku about Aoba.

At that time.

Rin knew that Saki had been looking for a time to apologize.

Yet they could only wait for Aoba to return from the battlefield.

But...

Good times did not last long.

Just a few days ago.

The two of them heard a piece of bad news.

That was, the Sensory Ninjas that went to Iwagakure's battlefield were almost completely wiped out!

One had to know that among these Sensory Ninjas, there were many ninjas from their three major clans, especially Yamanaka's.

At that time.

They thought that all the ninjas Aoba went with died on the battlefield.

Their mood had been very low.

However.

It didn't take long for their mood to turn around.

The two of them were shocked to find that Aoba was one of the two people who had survived the battle.

Such a thing shocked Saki greatly. After struggling in her heart for a few days, she decided to come here and see Aoba personally. She wanted to apologize to Aoba for what had happened earlier and shared the story of them becoming Chunin with Aoba.

But...

After seeing Aoba's cold and indifferent appearance, Saki thought of the worries she had for Aoba in the past few days. She immediately felt that her kindness was ill-intended, so she was very unhappy.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.

The more she thought about it, the more unbalanced she felt.

In the end, she couldn't help but say a lot of rude words.

Rin heard all of this. She was very clear about the matter with Saki. At the same time, she also knows that what Saki said was not really what she had in her heart. However, she couldn't explain why things ended up like this.

"I'm fine."

Aoba nodded indifferently. His entire body gave off a feeling of being a thousand miles away. Right now, he simply didn't want to have any more interactions with these two girls.

"If there is nothing else, you can leave. I need to rest."

Aoba directly issued the order to evict the guest. After the previous contact with these two girls, he understood that as long as he had a relationship with the two of them, he would be contaminated with much karma that should not have appeared. He would attract the attention of even more people.

This was not what he wanted!

"You..." The first reveal of this chapter happened through n(0/)vel(b)(j)(n).

Saki did not expect Aoba to be so heartless. She came here personally to show her concern. However, before she could say anything, she was coldly rejected. How could she endure this?

"Don't go too far!"

"We came here especially to see you!"

"I'm not here to see your face!"

"How can you not know what's good and what's wrong?"

Saki's face turned red. She shook her hands and put her hands on her hips. She looked like she was really angry. After that, she suddenly grabbed Rin beside her and pulled her toward the exit.

"Rin, let's go. He is not worthy for us to care about him!"

Saki was angry, but after she pulled Rin over, she found that Aoba did not stop her.

If she wanted to turn back now, she had to lower her proud head.

But she was not willing to do so!

Now that she had already walked out, she was in a state where she had no choice but to release the arrow. She braced herself and continued to walk out, completely ignoring Aoba.

Gradually.

Saki pulled Rin away.

Bang!

Just as the two of them walked a few steps, they heard the heavy door close. It was as if a door had been welded to death. It could be seen that the other party did not want them to go back.

"Humph!"

Saki snorted again. Her heart which had been hesitating just now suddenly became even angrier. Her footsteps became faster and she directly walked out of the Anbu dormitory.

"Saki..."

Rin looked at Saki and felt a little distressed for no reason. She knew that Saki did not want this to happen, but after things had reached this point, it had developed toward the wrong place.

...

After Aoba closed the door again, he shook his head silently. He knew that he was a bit ruthless in doing this, but if he did not do it, it might bring a little hope to the two girls.

He did not mind them apologizing.

He didn't mind forgiving them.

But after what happened earlier, he didn't want to have any more interactions with these two girls.

After that.

Aoba returned to his original state.

This time, he was not disturbed again.

...

At the same time.

Konohagakure.

During this period of time, the village had been in a state of tranquility, but this kind of tranquility did not make people feel comfortable but uneasy.

Hokage Building.

Konohagakure's Jonin and some of the Chunin had already gathered here. They were all dressed in Konohagakure's ninja clothes and looked quite imposing.

In front of these ninjas.

Standing was the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was wearing the Hokage robe.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

Hiruzen cleared his throat and pulled everyone's attention to him. After that, he swept his gaze over every ninja.

"Today, I have gathered everyone here. I think you have already guessed what is going on!"

"That's right!"

"It's the war with Iwagakure!"

"Not long ago, Iwagakure suddenly attacked the border. Our Anbu ninja team was almost completely wiped out!"

"This kind of thing is simply intolerable!"

"Right now, Iwagakure ninjas are still restless. They are expected to arrive at the border soon. We must give a strong counterattack!"

Hiruzen paused and his gaze fell on a silver-haired man wearing a half-sleeve Hokage robe.

"Hatake Sakumo!" Hiruzen immediately called out to Hatake Sakumo.

"Yes!" Hatake Sakumo immediately replied.

"Now, as the Hokage, I order you to become the commander of Konohagakure's ninja army. You will lead Konohagakure ninjas in a full-scale war with Iwagakure. We must achieve a comprehensive victory in this war!" Hiruzen said seriously. He had already thought it through. Instead of worrying about Hatake Sakumo, he should worry about the current situation first and deal with the crisis outside.

"Yes!" Hatake Sakumo immediately nodded. His face was full of strong confidence, and his eyes were flashing with determination.

Report chapter Comments

Chapter 440: A Tree That Is Beautiful in the Forest Will Be Destroyed by the Wind!

Hatake Sakumo was not afraid of these challenges. In his opinion, this was the best arrangement. This was what should be done. After all, he was very confident and knew that he was the kind of person who could preside over the overall situation.

But he had always had an indescribable feeling.

It was as if Hiruzen was using him.

However, it was not completely important.

This was just a very strange feeling.

Sometimes, Hatake Sakumo felt that he was thinking too much, but every time, he felt that it was so real.

There was a feeling of ambiguity.

When you need him, you need him but don't need him completely. When you don't need him, he would very direct that he doesn't need you at all.

Of course.

Hatake Sakumo was only feeling this way. He wasn't sure if Hiruzen would always feel this way when facing others.

At least...

Among the people he knew, he had never heard of anyone who had such a feeling.

This time.

It gave him a brand-new experience.

Hatake Sakumo suddenly felt Hiruzen's trust in him. He directly gave him the position of commander and let him lead Konohagakure ninjas to fight Iwagakure so that he could fully display his ability.

This made him feel very grateful.

"Sandaime-sama, please rest assured. I will definitely complete the task and win this battle."

Hatake Sakumo immediately expressed his determination to Hiruzen. Now, his heart was full of ambition. He just wanted to find a chance to show off and rush to the front line to finish this battle beautifully.

"En!"

After hearing Hatake Sakumo's words, Hiruzen slowly nodded his head. In his dark eyes, there were still traces of cold light that only he knew.

"I am very reassured about you!"

"It is also because of this..."

"That is why I ordered you to be the commander and let you lead the village to fight against Iwagakure, who is coming at us menacingly!"

"I will leave all of Konohagakure's safety in your hands!"

Hiruzen stared at Hatake Sakumo with a happy expression. It was as if he unearthed the fine steed, Hatake Sakumo, and had complete trust in him.

"Yes!"

Hatake Sakumo's voice became much louder.

At this time.

He suddenly felt the burden on his body become heavier.

It was as if the fate of the entire village was on his shoulders.

In this conversation, he felt an indescribable sense of mission.

Turning the tide when the building is about to collapse!

This was what Hatake Sakumo felt right now. He felt that he was such a person.

After that.

Hiruzen handed over some things.

The meeting was officially over. The ninjas dispersed one after another. Everyone knew in their hearts that the war was about to begin.

...

Three days later.

Anbu's dormitory.

Dong Dong Dong...

Another series of knocks sounded.

It pulled Aoba's mind back from his wandering state.

"Coming."

The corners of Aoba's mouth curled up slightly. He hadn't opened the door yet, but he already knew in his heart who it was.

Morino Eaton!

There would be no one else than him who would find him at this time! The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via n(0)vel(b)(j)(n).

And...

Aoba felt that it was time for Eaton to come.

Suddenly.

Aoba walked to the door. He immediately open the door and his eyes fell on the man waiting outside.

It was as he expected.

The person who was looking for him now was Eaton.

"Brother Eaton, why are you here?" Aoba pretended to not know anything and asked. The expression on his face matched his performance, and he looked as if he did not know about this at all.

After hearing Aoba's words, Eaton raised his eyes and did not speak at first moment.

This person...

He clearly knew that he would come!

Eaton was the Konohagakure Intelligence Division Captain for so many years and had his own judgment on many things. He still knew what was going on.

After all...

Aoba was no longer the Aoba he had known before.

Ever since Aoba had laid his cards on the table with him.

Eaton understood that Aoba was not a simple person. He thought of many things, and before he thought that Aoba hadn't thought of them, now he would feel that Aoba had thought of them too, even some things he hadn't thought of, he would feel that Aoba had thought of them too.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

After a moment of silence, Eaton cleared his throat and turned his attention back to Aoba.

"Aoba."

"The ninjas of the village are gathering at the main entrance."

"They are going to the front line."

Eaton said in a deep voice. Now, he had specially come over to say these words to Aoba.

This was not what Aoba had instructed him to do.

No one had asked him to say this.

However.

This was something he felt himself.

Even he himself did not know why. From what he knew, he felt that Aoba was paying attention to the Third Ninja World War. It was precisely because of this that he specially came over to tell Aoba about this matter.

Perhaps this was a tacit understanding!

Eaton felt that it was definitely right for him to run over and say it. At most, Aoba would not be interested in these things.

However.

If he was interested.

He did not come for nothing.

Now he wanted to curry favor with Aoba, not because of the Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal. This seal will not restrict his movements and life. As long as he did not mention anything about Aoba, everything was normal.

He did not care about this.

What he cared about was Aoba's own potential and strength.

He originally wanted to curry favor with Aoba because Aoba was Tsunade's student. Gradually, he discovered Aoba's writing talent, and now he understood Aoba's true strength.

This kind of discovery process, coupled with the fetters that he had established between himself and Aoba, made him want to cherish these things even more.

"This is interesting."

Aoba nodded. His eyes lit up slightly. Right now, he did not need to deliberately hide anything in front of Eaton. However, he would not tell Eaton everything.

"Brother Eaton, let's go over and take a look. It would be a pity if we don't take a look at such a scene." Aoba said with a smile.

"Okay." Eaton nodded. He found that the result he wanted was the same as what he expected. Aoba really wanted to see the situation there.

After that.

The two of them left Anbu's dormitory together and walked in the direction of Konohagakure's main entrance.

...

Ten minutes later.

Under Eaton's lead, Aoba arrived at Konohagakure's main entrance. There were already a lot of people gathered here.

Not all of these people were going to the battlefield. Some of them were relatives of these ninjas and some ninjas came here to see them off.

The people standing here now, all clearly understood.

These ninjas who were rushing to the battlefield were all Konohagakure's heroes. What they stepped on was very likely to be a path of no return.

After these people leave.

How many people would come back?

No one knew the answer to such a thing.

It was even possible that no one would be able to return.

This made everyone here feel a little heavy. They wished they could look at these people a few more times and bid farewell to Konohagakure's heroes in their hearts.

"When we left, there was no such ostentation." Aoba looked at the scene in front of him and said indifferently. He did not feel that way, nor was he surprised by these people. He only felt that there was something unfair about it. It was unfair to the people who went to the battlefield last time.

"Yes!" Eaton nodded. He also felt very uncomfortable in his heart. When they left, not to mention being sent away, even leaving was very rushed. There was almost no time to prepare. Now, looking at these people, he felt that the treatment they received was completely different.

"Let's look at them!"

Aoba walked step by step in the direction of Konohagakure's main entrance. He was not very impatient but slowly looked at these people.

As a transmigrator who knew the progress of the ninja world's history.

He was very clear.

All of these people.

In the future, the names of most of them would be engraved on the Memorial Stone. This was the pain and cost of war, and it was unavoidable.

Aoba's gaze swept over these people. There were many familiar faces.

There were many people from the Uchiha clan.

Aoba also saw Fugaku.

However, he did not greet Fugaku. He only silently watched the determination and bravery of these people who were about to enter the battlefield.

After another period of time.

They seemed to feel that it was about time.

Konoha White Fang, Hatake Sakumo, who was wearing a half-sleeve Hokage robe, stood out. He stood in front of everyone and swept his gaze over the ninjas waiting here.

Every sound faded away as he looked.

Konohagakure's main entrance gradually quieted down.

It had to be said.

Hatake Sakumo was indeed very prestigious in Konohagakure.

This kind of effect was not something that anyone could achieve.

People believed in Hatake Sakumo.

"Everyone!"

Hatake Sakumo shouted loudly. His voice passed through the surrounding space and clearly reached everyone's ears.

"I don't want to say more about the reason why we are standing here. I think every one of you should be clear about it. Then let us set off and defend our village together!"

Hatake Sakumo said a very short mobilization word. After he finished speaking, he gestured to everyone, indicating that they could set off.

"Yes!"

Konohagakure's ninjas responded repeatedly. They all flashed out and headed in the direction of Konohagakure's main entrance.

Not long after.

The ninjas here had already set off and only an empty ground in front of the main entrance was left behind.

"This is Konoha White Fang. He really has prestige. Almost all of Konohagakure ninjas believed in him!"

"White Fang is strong, has a good character, and is very loved!"

"I think White Fang is very likely to become the Fourth Hokage of the village!"

"What a coincidence, I also think so. Now in the village, I can't think of anyone who can be like White Fang!"

"I know that White Fang's reputation is higher than that of the Sannin!"

"I support White Fang to become the Hokage!"

"The current Third Hokage has been in position for a long time, and it is almost time to give up the Hokage position!"

"..."

The people at the main entrance began to talk one after another. The focus of everyone's discussion has changed from the fact that these ninjas were about to go to the front line to fight to Konoha White Fang, Hatake Sakumo.

Everyone had a hidden feeling in their hearts.

As long as Hatake Sakumo led Konohagakure ninjas in the Third Ninja World War, they would be able to win.

In that case, Hatake Sakumo would be Konohagakure's hero.

This was not something that could be compared with the usual high-profile missions. This was a real battle achievement.

All of a sudden.

In the eyes of the people who watched the ninjas leave, they already felt that this battle was like a dragon returning to the sea for Hatake Sakumo, and it would completely earn his reputation.

"Interesting."

Aoba stood behind these people and could hear these people talking about Hatake Sakumo from a distance.

"How is it interesting?" Eaton asked doubtfully. He did not keep up with Aoba's thinking and did not know what the latter was talking about.

"A tree that is beautiful in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. Have you heard of this?" Aoba said lightly. Now he somewhat understood why Hatake Sakumo was killed by public opinion. This person's style was too high-profile, so many people were jealous of him in many things.

"Never heard of it..." Eaton shook his head. He really did not understand what this meant so he asked, "What does this mean?"

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand."

Aoba directly shook his head and did not explain deeply. After all, this attitude and style of doing things were not suitable for everyone.

Because of this.

It was useless to say too much.

In the modern world, such a thing would be called a disagreement of three views.

Most of the ninjas in the ninja world were hot-blooded and mission-oriented. They had ideological awareness and could sacrifice themselves at any time.

This kind of spirit was something that Aoba did not possess.

It was also not something that he wanted to possess.

"You only need to know that the higher you stand, the more people will see you, and the more likely you will become a target in the eyes of others."

Aoba said simply.

It was not so much an explanation of what he just said.

But it was better to say something than not.

"Oh..."

Eaton answered half-heartedly. He seemed to understand Aoba's words, but at the same time, he didn't seem to understand them. However, he didn't intend to ask any further.

"Aoba, do you have any plans now?"

Eaton asked Aoba. He directly put the topic in another position. After all, these ninjas who were going to the front line had already left, so there was nothing to say about this topic.

"Go back and sleep."

Aoba said these few words indifferently. After that, he immediately turned around and walked toward the direction of Anbu's dormitory which make Eaton dumbfounded.

Chapter 441: Uzumaki Nagato!

"That's it?"

Eaton looked at Aoba, who was walking toward the Anbu dormitory not far away, and his eyes were full of doubts.

Didn't they just arrive?

Although Hatake Sakumo and the others had already left.

But...

It ended so quickly?

Eaton still felt a strong sense of confusion. He was not very clear about what Aoba was going to do next.

However.

He did not follow Aoba back.

He still had many things he had to do.

...

Aoba slowly walked away from Konohagakure's main entrance. Just as he arrived near the main entrance, he could clearly feel several pairs of eyes staring at him.

Such a focused line of sight was very concealed.

Eaton definitely did not notice.

If Aoba did not have Sage Body and extremely sharp senses, he might not have sensed these people.

As he left.

There were fewer of these gazes.

But there were still many.

"I was still targeted!"

When Aoba came back, he knew that he would definitely become an existence that many people cared about. After all, in that war, only he and Eaton had returned. This meant that he might have some secrets on him.

This was very normal logic.

Aoba had already thought of it.

So when he found out that he was being targeted, there was almost no psychological fluctuation. It did not affect his mood because of this.

Just like this.

Under the gazes of these people. The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via /n/ov/el/b/in.

Aoba returned to the Anbu dormitory.

The moment he entered, he clearly felt that the feeling of being watched had disappeared.

That was to say.

After those people knew that he had returned to the Anbu dormitory, they no longer followed him. They were not going to watch his every move, as long as they knew where he was it was enough.

"Interesting."

After walking into the Anbu dormitory, the corners of Aoba's mouth slightly curled up. Those people were quite self-aware. They knew that the environment in the Anbu dormitory was dim. If they followed him rashly, they might be discovered, so they all hid outside.

The most important thing was...

His monitoring priority was not very high.

"Since there are so many pairs of eyes helping me prove my innocent, wouldn't it be a pity not to go out and have fun now!"

Aoba quickly made a series of hand seals, and the chakra in his body surged and instantly formed a shadow clone in front of him.

This shadow clone looked the same as Aoba and did not use Kami no Shisha no Jutsu(Paper Person of God Technique) to change it.

The two identical Aoba stood in the Anbu dormitory and looked at each other.

"Let me think..."

Aoba stared at his shadow clone. While he was thinking, the shadow clone was also thinking, and the two of them were at the same frequency.

"Last time when I appeared as a medical ninja was Eaton's request, so I had to use my own appearance at that time, together with that set of clothes."

"But this time there is no need to completely reproduce the past."

"And I can make some changes and guide appropriately."

"Isn't Hiruzen a little afraid of the ninjas from the Uzumaki Clan..."

"In that case..."

"Then I will look like an Uzumaki clan!"

Aoba quickly thought of many things. After all, the current situation was different from before.

Thinking of this.

Aoba and the shadow clone looked at each other.

"It's just..."

"What would be better?"

"I can't think of a specific appearance in my mind."

"Do I have to think of someone else and turn their hair red?"

"Or..."

As Aoba thought about this, his eyes widened and his pupils contracted. He thought of a very interesting thing.

For a moment.

Aoba and the shadow clone in front of him looked at each other. With just a glance, they understood each other's thoughts. After all, they were the same person. At such a close distance, the way of thinking was the same.

At this moment, the appearance of his shadow clone immediately changed. His red hair suddenly appeared and grew longer and longer, covering his eyes. The shape of his face also changed, and his whole body looked much more exquisite.

"It's done!"

Aoba looked at the appearance of the advanced paper clone in front of him and slowly nodded. This was the effect he wanted. It was exactly the same as he imagined.

"Now, it looks like this."

"Unless Jiraiya sees it..."

"Otherwise no one will recognize it at all!"

"Uzumaki Nagato!"

Aoba changed his shadow clone to look like the boss of the Akatsuki Organization, Jiraiya's student Uzumaki Nagato. He was about seventeen or eighteen years old, exactly what he looked like after Jiraiya's training.

At this time, Nagato was following Yahiko in the Country of Rain, carrying out the operation of the first Akatsuki Organization, and had yet to officially step onto the path of villain Boss.

However...

No matter what, he was still a descendant of the Uzumaki Clan!

"I'll temporarily borrow your identity. Although I won't be easily discovered, after I'm accidentally discovered, I have to leave some room for myself."

Aoba talked to the advanced paper clone as if he was talking to Nagato.

"But..."

"I really should find a chance to meet you."

"The current Akatsuki Organization is still in its infancy, and there is no such person as Pain. It is like a piece of white paper that has not been smeared."

"Maybe after seeing me..."

"The Akatsuki Organization will have a new direction of development."

Aoba's mind began to become active. After all, he was clear about the inside story. The change in the Akatsuki Organization began from the moment Obito started to stir things up as Madara.

It was Obito who sent the news to Hanzo.

The impact of Yahiko's death on Nagato was too great.

Now, these things had not happened yet. Obito was still in Konohagakure, helping the old woman cross the road. Everything was still on the original track.

"Let's talk about those things later. Now, let's focus on the current situation."

Aoba nodded to the advanced paper clone, who had become Nagato in front of him. The latter immediately received Aoba's order, picked up a mask, and covered his face.

After that.

Aoba's advanced paper clone took out another cloak and draped it over his body. He also put on the hat behind him.

After these series of actions were completed.

Aoba's advanced paper clone had already hidden himself well. It looked like the style of an Anbu. However, the color of the clothes was not so gloomy.

Chapter 442: Hiruzen's Shock!

After Aoba's advanced paper clone arranged himself, his pair of pitch-black eyes focused on Aoba through the eye sockets of the mask.

"Wait..."

After Aoba met the advanced paper clone's gaze, he immediately discovered that something was wrong.

"This eye isn't right!"

Aoba immediately speak what he saw. He frowned and began to think about it.

"I don't know the original color of Nagato's eyes, but with my own eyes and Nagato's appearance, I always feel strange."

"Although Kushina's eyes are black, the eye of the Uzumaki Clan is not completely black. After all, Karin's eyes were red."

"Make some adjustments."

"We can't let them recognize us."

"As for the color of my eyes..."

"There is no need to explain."

"This kind of mysterious feeling is the best way to make Hiruzen fall into doubt!"

Aoba instantly thought of a solution. As he spoke, the paper in front of the advanced paper clone's eyes flew up and down. From the original black eyes, the color became a little lighter and gradually turned red.

"It's done."

Aoba pressed the stop button of this changing process. Right now, the entire eyes were not so black, they are relatively much lighter. Moreover, when he looked closely, there was a faint bright red light in his eyes. Of course, if he did not look closely, it would not be so easy to see.

"Hahahahaha, go ahead."

Aoba nodded at the advanced paper clone. He was already very satisfied with the current situation. After he finished speaking, he lay down on the iron bed, waiting to attract the attention of the people outside.

"Yes!"

Aoba's advanced paper clone immediately responded after hearing Aoba's words. After that, he clapped his hands together and immediately communicated with the Flying Thunder God Formula on the outside.

Swish!

Aoba's advanced paper clone immediately used Hiraishin no Jutsu(Flying Thunder God Technique). His figure instantly disappeared from where he was and left this place.

...

Inside Konohagakure.

In the small forest.

Aoba's advanced paper clone suddenly appeared next to a tree. His right hand patted the tree trunk. There was a black pattern there. It was the Flying Thunder God Formula that he had reserved in advance.

With these arrangements that had been prepared beforehand.

Now, he could easily shuttle through Konohagakure and not be discovered by anyone.

After Aoba's advanced paper clone confirmed his position, he raised his head and looked in the direction of the Hokage Building.

At this moment, the timing was just right.

Hiruzen authorized Hatake Sakumo to be the commander of this battle, and the ninja army had already left Konohagakure.

Then...

If he were to treat Danzo's injuries now.

He wondered what kind of waves would emerge in Hiruzen's heart.

... The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via /n/ov/el/b/in.

After a few flashes, Aoba's advanced paper clone quickly came out of the forest and arrived at the Hokage Building entrance.

"Who are you?!"

There were two ninjas guarding the Hokage Building entrance. Both of them were Chunin. When they saw the appearance of Aoba's advanced paper clone, they immediately widened their eyes. Each of them had a strong sense of caution.

They had never seen this person before.

There was no Konohagakure symbol on his body.

Maybe it was someone from another village...

The two ninjas guarding the entrance were both in a tense state. Now that they had entered the war stage, any little accident could cause the war to change in different directions.

"None of your business."

Aoba took a step forward. His hands were like lightning. Before the two of them could react, he quickly patted their shoulders.

Snapped! Snapped!

The sound of two bodies colliding rang out.

Along with these two sounds, the two ninjas guarding the entrance found that their bodies could not move at all. Black lines appeared on their bodies, and these black lines seemed to have a life of their own, directly crawling all over their bodies, limiting their movements.

The intensity of this restriction was very high, so much so that they could not even speak.

They could only watch as Aoba walked into the Hokage Building step by step under their gaze.

For Aoba, this was not the first time he had been here.

He had been here many times.

He was already very familiar with it.

He walked directly toward the stairs at the end of the intersection.

After climbing up the stairs, he walked along the semi-curved corridor and stood at a door.

This was the Hokage's office.

Hiruzen was inside.

At this time.

Aoba raised his hand and knocked on the door of the office.

Knock Knock Knock...

The sound of knocking suddenly sounded through the door of the office and reached Hiruzen's ears, who were staring at the scroll inside.

"Please come in."

Hiruzen's low and magnetic voice slowly sounded. After saying this, he put down the scroll in his hand and looked in the door's direction.

It was reasonable to say that the vast majority of Jonin in the village had already been sent out.

The person who knocked on the door at this time would definitely not have a high status, so naturally, there would not be any big problems.

He could totally not pay much attention to it.

You have to know...

In the past, when a ninja came in, Hiruzen would lower his head to look at the scroll while listening to the report of the person who came in.

But...

Even he himself couldn't tell.

He just wanted to see who had come at this time and what exactly was going on. This feeling was very strange.

Creak...

Following the sound of the door opening.

Aoba's advanced paper clone walked in. After entering, he immediately noticed Hiruzen sitting on the desk chair.

At the same time.

Hiruzen also saw him.

"You are..."

Hiruzen frowned slightly. He quickly sized up the person in front of him. The other person was wearing a mask and did not have Konohagakure's symbol. He did not look like a ninja from Root. He looked like someone from another village.

"Sandaime-sama."

Aoba lowered his voice, pretending not to speak with her own voice on purpose to conceal her identity.

"Have you forgotten me?"

Aoba did not answer Hiruzen. Instead, asked this question.

"You are..."

Hiruzen frowned even more. After hearing Aoba's words, he was stunned for a moment.

Just a moment later.

Hiruzen seemed to have thought of something. His eyes instantly widened, and his pupils were filled with shock.

Chapter 443: So You Are Really a Member of the Uzumaki Clan!

Hiruzen stared fixedly at Aoba. He could already tell that the masked man in front of him was the one who had treated Danzo's injuries not long ago.

Only...

He could feel that he was that person.

But he was not completely like that person.

If the other party had not come here himself, even if he had seen him on the streets, he might not have been able to combine the two of them together.

"Are you the medical ninja who treated Danzo?"

Hiruzen stared at Aoba with wide eyes. When he said this, he noticed the change in the color of Aoba's eyes.

It was these changes that gave him a strange feeling in his heart.

It was to the extent that he was unable to recognize Aoba in the first place.

Looking at it this way.

Hiruzen silently pondered in his heart. When he was looking for this person in the past, he might have made a mistake.

Things had changed a little too quickly!

He was restrained by a fixed line of thought.

"You finally recognized it."

Aoba slowly nodded. He stared at Hiruzen without any fear at all. His entire body seemed to feel at ease, which directly conveyed to Hiruzen that he was confident.

"It really is you!"

When Hiruzen heard Aoba's words, he immediately reacted. His expression immediately turned cold. He had already made many preparations in his heart.

After all. n(0)vel(b)(j)(n)was the platform where this chapter was initially revealed on N0v3l.B1n.

In his opinion.

This person in front of him belongs to those who would come with ill intentions.

If not, there was no need to come here at this time.

He did not need to personally appear in front of him.

In addition, he had a fearless look on his face.

This made him a little unable to control his heart. Instead, he did not dare to act rashly and silently handed the initiative to Aoba.

"Sandaime-sama, I came to you this time mainly for Danzo-sama's affairs," Aoba said softly.

"What's the matter with Danzo?"

Hiruzen's heart thumped wildly. He instinctively felt that there was nothing good for Aoba to look for him. In addition, it involved Danzo, which made him feel that something was wrong.

At this time.

Hiruzen was still very dependent on Danzo.

Many things were difficult for him to handle alone.

Danzo's matter immediately caught his attention, making him not dare to be the slightest bit negligent.

"Do not worry."

Aoba keenly caught the change in Hiruzen's eyes at that moment.

It was not that Hiruzen was careless or not shrewd.

It was because Aoba's insight was too subtle. If Hiruzen's eyeballs moved little and his subconscious reaction would be discovered by him.

"I'm not here to harm Danzo-sama."

Aoba shook his head, and the corner of his mouth behind the mask slightly curled up. He then said, "I'm here to check on him."

"Check?" Hiruzen stared at Aoba, his eyes full of vigilance.

"That's right!" Aoba nodded and said, "It has been a while since the last treatment. Now it is time for the follow-up. I want to see his recovery."

"Did Eaton tell you?" Hiruzen immediately thinks of Eaton. After all, he had just looked for Eaton not long ago and talked about the things on this side. He wanted Danzo to be able to speak at least, but he did not get a positive response.

"No..."

Aoba shook his head again. He didn't want Hiruzen to always go to Eaton about such things, so he want to try his best to get Eaton out.

"He can't find me now."

"Sandaime-sama."

"I think you should be very clear."

"From when you were suspicious of my identity..."

"None of you could find me."

"But..."

"No matter what."

"Eaton is still very good to me."

"So I hope that if there is something, you can directly come to me!"

"And not always looking for Eaton."

Aoba said one sentence after another. The purpose of these words was to not let Eaton continue to be troubled by Hiruzen.

In the past, Eaton did not say it out because of his promise to him.

He cherished this very much.

But.

Now, Eaton did not say it.

It was because after Eaton was branded with the Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal, he had no way to say it.

Not to mention that he didn't want to say it.

Even if he wanted to say it, he couldn't say it.

So...

No matter how much Hiruzen asked, he would not get any results. On the contrary, it was easy for Eaton to be oppressed by Hiruzen when he was so tight-lipped.

This was something that Aoba did not want to see.

"What do I suspect of you?" Hiruzen narrowed his eyes slightly. He immediately grasped this point. He felt that this was a very important key point that could get Aoba's words out.

"Of course, it's about you suspecting my identity." Aoba blurted out subconsciously. Of course, this was what he wanted to show. When Hiruzen opened his mouth, he had already guessed what Hiruzen wanted to achieve. Thus, he used this point to directly explain the identity he wanted to create.

"Is there a problem with your identity?" Hiruzen did not frown. He felt that he was getting closer and closer to the truth. However, the more he got to this point, the more he could not be careless. He tried his best to control his tone so that he did not seem to have any problems.

"Hahahahaha!"

When Aoba heard Hiruzen's words, he immediately raised his head and laughed. There was a sense of arrogance in his laughter.

"Sandaime-sama."

"There's no need to play riddles between us anymore."

"Isn't it better to be honest with each other?"

"I'll tell you the truth."

"My name is Uzumaki Nagato."

Aoba said meaningfully. He felt that since he had turned into Nagato, he might as well use Nagato's name.

In the past, when he watch Naruto, he did not know whether Nagato was surnamed Uzumaki or not. He only knew that Nagato had the Uzumaki Clan's bloodline.

However...

This was not important.

Now, he wanted to borrow Nagato's name.

"So you are really a member of the Uzumaki Clan!"

When Hiruzen heard the name that Aoba had given him, a huge stone that was hanging in his heart suddenly fell to the ground.

He was not worried that Aoba was an Uzumaki Clan member.

He just wanted to find out what was going on.

He didn't want to think about whether that person was an Uzumaki Clan member all day long. This way, he won't always be unclear about what was going on.

"That's right."

Aoba nodded and admitted. The eyes that were exposed behind the mask still showed indifference, as if he did not take this matter seriously at all.

"I am from the Uzumaki Clan."

"I know everything you have done."

"Now I have told you everything."

"You don't need to guess."

"Are you satisfied now?"

Aoba stared at Hiruzen and said. He had used his shadow clone to come here to find Hiruzen. In fact, he was here to show his cards.

After all, he was not a real ninja from the Uzumaki Clan.

Therefore, showing his cards meant that he could get a new identity to use.

This wasn't a problem that was too difficult to think about.

"This..."

When Hiruzen heard Aoba speak so frankly, he didn't know what to say.

Everything that was happening here now.

Everything was beyond Hiruzen's expectations.

Right at this moment.

A strange power surged out and spread over Aoba. After that, his hands were uncontrollably raised.

There was a force on his body that was pulling him.

"I caught you."

A voice passed through the door of the office, and then Aoba uncontrollably raised his hands and walked toward the door of the office.

One step.

Two steps.

Three steps.

...

Seven steps.

When Aoba reach the door, his raised hand made a gesture of pushing the door open.

Creak...

The door of the Hokage's office was pushed open.

In front of him was a person who did the same action as Aoba.

That person was the Hokage's office advisor, Nara Shikaku.

"This is really an interesting technique."

Aoba's gaze fell on the shadow that connected the two of them. The shadow just now extended through the gap of the door and just happened to be stuck in his field of vision blind.

Kagemane no Jutsu(Shadow Imitation Technique)!

The timing of Nara Shikaku's use of this technique was just right. Not to mention Aoba standing here, even if it was any other person, they might still be caught.

"Now let me see your true face."

Nara Shikaku retracted his right hand, which was pushing the door open, and just happened to touch his face.

At the same time.

The shadow under their feet pulled Aoba to do the same. His right hand also grabbed the mask.

"Sandaime-sama."

"Is this how you treat your guests?"

"Do you not want me to treat Danzo?"

Aoba asked indifferently. His hands were still following Nara Shikaku's action, but he did not panic. Instead, he asked Hiruzen about it.

"It is not polite to talk with a mask. Moreover, I don't know why you are here. It is better for us to be honest." Hiruzen said in a low voice. When he said these words, he did not have any intention to stop Shikaku. He even took out an excuse to beat back Aoba's words.

"Sandaime-sama, you are still so hypocritical. I think I am very honest here. If it's about the mask, you have to leave me some privacy, right?"

As Aoba spoke, his hand stopped in front of the mask and did not grab the mask.

"You... this..."

Shikaku suddenly felt an extremely strong force pass through the shadow, making it so that his hand could not reach for his face.

It was important!

Shikaku felt as if his Kagemane no Jutsu(Shadow Imitation Technique) was acting on a statue. No matter how much strength he used, he was unable to shake the statue in the slightest.

This kind of situation was something he had only encountered when he was studying Kagemane no Jutsu(Shadow Imitation Technique) before.

Most of the time, he had never felt this way.

"Do you think you can bind me with this shadow?" Aoba said indifferently. As he spoke, he tilted his head and looked in Shikaku's direction.

Following this action of Aoba.

Shikaku felt that his neck was moving.

This feeling was very painful.

Snapped!

Along with a sound similar to the breaking of a rope, the shadow between Shikaku and Aoba was directly cut off. The Kagemane no Jutsu(Shadow Imitation Technique) was cut off just like that.

"Have you never thought about my identity before you attacked?"

Aoba put on an indifferent attitude and walked toward Shikaku step by step.

"You should have heard what I said just now!"

"I have already told you."

"I am a ninja from the Uzumaki Clan."

"Don't you know what the Uzumaki Clan ninja are best at?"

Aoba said as he walked. He was already in front of Shikaku. His eyes were fixed on Shikaku, and he ignored Hiruzen who was sitting at the desk.

"Seal... Sealing Technique..."

Shikaku's voice was trembling. It was not because he was afraid, but because he had consumed a lot of energy just now and his body reacted instinctively. That was why he was like this.

"That's right!"

Aoba nodded, a hint of gratification flashing in his eyes. However, his steps did not seem to slow down in the slightest.

"It is the sealing technique!"

"Your shadow is very powerful!"

"But in front of our Uzumaki Clan..."

"It's still not enough."

In order to make his acting more realistic, Aoba had already put himself into the identity of an Uzumaki Clan member, as if he was the Uzumaki Nagato he was talking about.

"Stop!"

At this time, Hiruzen roared. He had already realized the problem and suddenly flashed out, directly separating the two of them.

Hiruzen doesn't know why.

A very strange thought arose in his heart.

It seemed...

If he didn't make a move now.

Nara Shikaku would be in big trouble.

"What are you trying to do?" Hiruzen stared at Aoba, a strong sense of vigilance flashing in his eyes.

"I already said it."

Aoba stared at Hiruzen meaningfully. After what happened just now, he felt that whether it was Hiruzen or Shikaku, they had already believed that he was an Uzumaki Clan ninja.

As long as they accepted this setting.

Then the follow-up would be much easier.

"I came to treat Danzo!"

Aoba said word by word clearly. This was indeed his purpose for coming here. He wanted to completely treat Danzo's injuries so that Konohagakure could recover their normal rhythm.

Now was the best time.

If it was just a little bit early in the morning, then Hatake Sakumo might not leave. Danzo would make a new decision for Hiruzen.

"Are you serious?" Hiruzen frowned. He felt that there was something wrong. He could not help but continue to ask, "Is there any benefit in doing this for you?"

"I will feel happy."

Aoba smiled slightly. Although his smile was blocked by the mask, it could still be seen from his eyes.

Such an answer.

Hiruzen and Shikaku were stunned.

Especially Hiruzen.

He vaguely felt that Aoba's purpose was to take revenge on Konohagakure. After all, Konohagakure played a crucial role in the annihilation of the Uzumaki Clan.

Report chapter Comments

Chapter 444: This Uzumaki Clan Ninja Is Not Simple!

"Uzumaki Nagato!"

Hiruzen stared at Aoba and slowly spoke. His tone was not very good, and he seemed to maintain that kind of low-pitched anger.

"I'm very surprised that you can come here by yourself today, but I have to tell you, don't think that this is a place where you can play around!"

"This is the Hokage's office!"

"I advise you to be sensible and honest. This is good for you and me. Don't make things too rigid!"

Hiruzen's eyes flashed with a cold light. After he confirmed that Aoba was a member of the Uzumaki Clan, he no longer had so many worries.

He had already done what he had done.

There was no turning back now.

The people of the Uzumaki Clan suddenly appeared, wanting nothing more than revenge for the Uzumaki Clan's matter.

This kind of thing...

It was equivalent to standing on the opposite side of him. The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via /n/ov/el/b/in.

In that case...

Rather than waiting for the other party to launch a surprise attack or something, it would be better for him to prepare his defenses first.

In the past, this person had not appeared. No matter how hard he tried, he could not find him. Now that he had come out, the matter was another matter.

"Sorry..."

Aoba shook his head at Hiruzen. The eyes on his mask revealed an indescribable indifference.

"I think this is a place where we can play around freely."

Aoba did not need to worry about anything, just like how he used the Kazekage and Tsuchikage's identities to do things.

There was nothing to worry about.

Right now, he was Nagato.

This was a temporary identity.

No matter what he did with Nagato's identity, it had nothing to do with him, Yamanaka Aoba.

Especially now that he was in the Anbu dormitory under the watch of many ninjas and had not come out at all, he had already proved that he and Nagato were two different people.

"You have to pay attention to your words!" Hiruzen narrowed his eyes slightly, the cold light in his eyes somewhat restrained, but it still made people feel incomparably cold.

"I don't need to pay attention to those things." Aoba directly let go of himself. He fixed his eyes on Hiruzen and after that added, "The purpose of my visit this time is to treat Danzo. The other things are not within my scope. Now I am not in the mood to talk nonsense with you. I am going to see Danzo."

"Danzo is not someone you can meet just because you say so," Hiruzen said coldly.

"No, you are wrong. If I say I see him, I can see him." Aoba shook his head again. He did not put Hiruzen in his eyes at all. Not to mention Hiruzen, he did not even take to heart the current five Kage. He really enjoys the feeling that he can quietly influence the situation in the ninja world.

"Do you know what you are talking about?" After hearing Aoba's disrespectful words to Hiruzen several times, Shikaku suddenly became angry and roared at Aoba.

"You have no right to speak here!" Aoba didn't even look at Shikaku. After that, he said, "You thought you were smart enough to eavesdrop on our conversation outside and used Kagemane no Jutsu(Shadow Imitation Technique) to sneak attack me. But have you ever thought that is it appropriate for you, a Hokage's office advisor, to get involved in it?"

"What do you mean?" Shikaku was stunned by Aoba's sudden words. His mind couldn't keep up for a moment. He thought that Aoba said something, but he didn't say it too clearly. It seemed that he was saying that his actions were wrong, but in his heart, he still felt that he had just done very well.

"How much do you know about the Uzumaki Clan's matter?" A sneer appeared on Aoba's face behind the mask. He continued, "You don't know anything at all, but you directly participated in it. Not only is it reckless, you even put Sandaime-sama in a difficult spot."

"What exactly do you mean?" The more Shikaku listened, the more he felt that the problem was serious. However, he did not know what kind of connection these things had. This feeling was like there was a layer of fog in front of him, making him unable to see what the scene before him was.

"I always thought that you were a very smart person, but when you became stupid, you were also really stupid. This might be the burden of a smart person. That is, they always thought that they were smart and believed in their own judgment. In the end, they become confused." Aoba said sarcastically.

"You..." Shikaku was baffled by Aoba's words, but he did not know how to refute them. Instead, he was more curious about the meaning of Aoba's words so he asked again, "What exactly do you want to say?"

"You still haven't understood!" Aoba shook his head and turned his gaze to Hiruzen. When he was talking to Shikaku just now, Hiruzen did not say a word. Obviously, the other party did not know what to say. Aoba then said, "If not for your sudden appearance, Sandaime-sama might have already killed me by now!"

"What are you talking about" Shikaku was greatly shocked by Aoba's words. This was different from what he knew about Hiruzen. Although he had discovered that Hiruzen was not as simple as he had imagined, if he were to do something like this, it would be completely different from the kind image that Hiruzen had created all along.

"If you understand, then you understand. If you don't understand, then I won't say anything. In short, when you do things in the future, don't be so subjective. Many things are not what you think they are. It is precisely your self-righteous cleverness that caused things to be biased from the very beginning. You are still young and there is still a lot to do. I believe that in the future you will be a very good strategist for Konohagakure, but..." Aoba dragged out his words as if he was trying to whet his appetite. In the end, he coldly said, "You are still not qualified."

"Enough!"

When Hiruzen heard this, he finally couldn't take it anymore. Just now, he did not refute or quibble.

This did not mean that he did not want to do so.

It was because he did not have a suitable excuse.

What Aoba said was right.

That was what he thought just now.

He wanted to take advantage of the time when Aoba came here alone to confirm that Aoba was a ninja from the Uzumaki Clan. After confirming that there was no one else, he would directly eliminate the roots.

"Sandaime-sama!"

Aoba looked at Hiruzen and his voice became much gentler. He said, "Now I am going to treat Danzo's injuries. If there is nothing else, I will go out."

"You can't leave."

Hiruzen shook his head without hesitation. At this critical juncture, although he needed this medical ninja to treat Danzo, there were still many things that he had not figured out. He needed more time to ask Aoba.

"You need to answer some of my questions."

"After I get the answer."

"I will ask you to treat Danzo."

"Can you understand what I'm saying?"

Hiruzen's expression became extremely serious. He looked especially serious. What happened here had already exceeded his expectations. He had to do his best to keep things under control.

"Hahahahaha!"

Aoba immediately raised his head and laughed, as if he had heard something very funny. After laughing, he slowly shook his head, and his eyes, which were exposed to the outside, revealed a playful look.

"Sandaime-sama, what should I say about you? You really haven't recognized the current situation!"

"I want to treat Danzo. You can't stop me. I don't need to care about your so-called topics at all!"

"But..."

"Once I decide not to treat Danzo."

"Then even if you beg me, it won't work for half a day!"

"The most important thing is..."

"You can't order me using your Hokage identity. I am not a member of your Konohagakure. I remember that you are very good at compromising. Why do you look tough when you are facing me?"

"Could it be that you think I'm a soft persimmon?"

After Aoba finished speaking, his body quickly charged toward Hiruzen. His speed was extremely fast. The speed he instantly erupted with was even faster than the Third Raikage.

The distance between Aoba and Hiruzen was already very close.

In addition, he suddenly released such an astonishing speed.

There was no time for Hiruzen to dodge.

Swish!

Aoba directly appeared in front of Hiruzen, raising his hand to grab Hiruzen's neck.

"???"

At this moment, question marks appeared in both Hiruzen and Shikaku's minds. Their eyes saw Aoba moving, but they only saw it and could not see it too clearly. Let alone the body, they couldn't even see the shadow at all.

Snapped!

A crisp sound rang out.

Aoba directly grabbed Hiruzen's neck and picked him up, but he did not maintain this action. Instead, he threw Hiruzen on the ground.

Hiruzen could not react in time, but after this, he immediately recovered. After doing a backflip in the air, he steadily landed on the ground and did not fall.

"As expected of Konoha's Hokage, this body's balance ability is really good!" Aoba praised from the bottom of his heart. Hiruzen was the weakest of all the Hokage in Konohagakure history. However, this person did not have any advantages and the only important thing about him was that he was very balanced. He knew everything and was not weak at all, but he was not proficient in anything. If such a ninja was placed in the rank of Jonin, he would be the elite among the elites. But if it was placed in the Kage rank, it would appear that the heart was willing but the strength was not enough.

"You..."

Hiruzen furrowed his brows. He was no longer as arrogant as before. As the saying goes, the moment an expert made a move, you would know whether he was an expert or not.

The moment Hiruzen was grabbed by Aoba, he felt a huge iron pincer around his neck and directly clamped him up.

He was unable to break free at all.

He could only let this hand throw him out.

At that moment, he felt his entire body swaying, and his vision was spinning. If not for his solid foundation skills, he would have fallen to the ground just now.

This also made him start to pay attention to Aoba's strengths.

This Uzumaki Clan ninja was not simple!

The way Hiruzen looked at Aoba had already changed. If it was just a sealing technique and medical ninjutsu, then it could indeed be very powerful, but it was yet not a threat.

After all, medical ninjutsu was only an auxiliary in most cases.

The sealing technique was originally a special type, and it was not an ability to be used as a main fighting technique. Otherwise, the Uzumaki clan would not be exterminated.

But...

Now he found that this Uzumaki clan ninja in front of him had very strong taijutsu, and the level of taijutsu was very high, so he was not easy to deal with.

One must know...

There weren't any powerful taijutsu users in Konohagakure!

Among the few who used taijutsu as their main fighting technique was Duy and he was only a Genin.

When Hiruzen faced Kumogakure's attack, he had already clearly recognized how terrifying their ability would be if they could practice taijutsu well.

Because of this.

After seeing Aoba's taijutsu, Hiruzen began to re-evaluate Aoba in his heart.

"Sandaime-sama, can you understand the situation now? Do you understand why I came here alone to find you, and why I can treat Danzo at will?"

Aoba acted as if nothing had happened. Step by step, he walked toward the door of the office. His steps had a unique frequency, and he was not disturbed by Hiruzen and Shikaku.

On the contrary.

Because of the unique rhythm of Aoba's footsteps, Hiruzen and Shikaku's hearts were beating with a special rhythm, and they were both a little nervous.

"Do you have any other opinions now?"

Aoba looked at Hiruzen and then looked at Shikaku next to him. Although they could not see Aoba's face, both of them could feel the confidence and indifference emanating from him.

This was no longer something that could be described as fearless!

This was absolute confidence!

Confidence in strength!

And...

The confidence brought about by strength!

"..."

Hiruzen's face was extremely gloomy. He was constantly evaluating whether the result of fighting with Aoba was good or bad.

After a thought struggle.

The part of Hiruzen who was terrified in his heart still had the upper hand.

Previously, when he was facing Aoba, he was stronger because he did not treat Aoba as an equal existence at all. When he spoke, he used a commanding tone and even wanted to get rid of Aoba at any time.

However, after the confrontation just now, things changed drastically. He understood that Aoba was not as simple as he imagined.

"I have no objections if you want to treat Danzo, but I have to be there. Otherwise, I can not allow you to do anything to Danzo alone!"

Chapter 445: The Extremely Shocked Danzo!

After saying these words, Hiruzen stared coldly at Aoba. He did not know what this person's purpose was, so he did not dare to relax.

Danzo was too important to him!

He hoped that Danzo could be healed so that he could be of great help in the Third Ninja World War.

Of course.

The premise was that it can be healed.

If Danzo can't be healed...

It was another matter.

Right now, Hiruzen was unable to determine what kind of idea this Uzumaki Clan ninja had in mind. For a moment, he was a little unsure. He did not dare to let the other party contact Danzo rashly, even though the other party was the one who had treated Danzo.

"Sure."

Aoba nodded. He did not bother to argue with Hiruzen because he was in a good mood today. If it was any other time, if Hiruzen spoke to him like this, then it would be fine to not treat Danzo.

"Let's go."

Aoba continued to walk toward the door. He had treated Danzo's injuries before and knew that the opposite side of the office was where Danzo was recuperating.

According to Danzo's current injuries.

He should still be there and would not be moved easily.

After all, that would be very risky.

As for the things that Hiruzen wanted to watch...

Aoba didn't care at all. If he wanted to watch, he could just watch. In any case, he was really going to treat Danzo's injuries. It wasn't like he was going to do anything. After all, he had already finished the matter of putting the seal earlier, so there was nothing to worry about.

Hiruzen stared fixedly at Aoba. He watched as Aoba walked over without saying a word.

A moment later.

Hiruzen shifted his gaze to Shikaku.

"Shikaku, there is nothing for you to do here. You can go back first. I will handle the rest." Hiruzen said in a deep voice.

"Yes!"

Shikaku nodded and left the office.

Shikaku did not say anything extra.

However, his heart was already in turmoil.

It was all because of what Aoba had just said earlier.

It didn't seem to have much of an effect.

But it was like a small pebble thrown into a calm river, causing ripples, making his mood turbulent.

"Do I really believe my judgment too much?"

For some reason, Shikaku thought of Aoba's matter in the Chunin Exams. At that time, he trusted his judgment very much and believed that Aoba cheated. However, through the investigation later, he found that the truth of the matter was very different from what he expected.

Now, after this existence who easily cracked his Kagemane no Jutsu(Shadow Imitation Technique), said these words.

This made his heart even more chaotic.

At this moment.

Shikaku was walking toward the building exit, thinking about what Aoba had just said.

"If I hadn't appeared just now..."

"Would Sandaime-sama make a move?"

"Why?"

"Isn't the Uzumaki Clan a close ally of our Konohagakure?"

"But..."

"I clearly felt a strong sense of vigilance and hostility from Sandaime-sama."

"Is there something wrong here?"

Shikaku kept thinking in his mind. He also wanted to not think too much, but he could not control his head at all.

There was no way at all.

He just could not help but think about such things.

Moreover.

Aoba's words, to a certain extent, subverted his understanding.

Not only his own understanding of himself but also his understanding of the Third Hokage, which was completely different from his previous understanding.

"Should I reflect on myself..."

Shikaku took a deep breath. He was only sixteen years old now and was in the same year as Aoba. Although he was very smart, his youthful and energetic period made him less thoughtful and restrained, so he gave too subjective answers to many things.

After this incident.

It was as if a warning bell had been sounded on his head.

Shikaku was not a stubborn person who would not reflect on himself. Instead, he had not realized this before. Now, things had made him realize these problems.

...

Shikaku's departure did not have any effect on Aoba and Hiruzen. The two of them arrived at the door of Danzo's room one after another.

Aoba raised his hand and wanted to push open the door directly. At this moment, his ears twitched slightly. He heard the sound from the inside and immediately turned his palm into a fist. It changed from pushing the door to knocking on the door.

Knock Knock Knock...

The sound of knocking on the door immediately attracted the attention of the people inside.

"Who is it?"

A calm voice sounded from the door. The owner of the voice was Konohagakure's Consultant, Utatane Koharu. Aoba had heard her voice a few times and he was familiar with it.

Suddenly.

Aoba took a step back and gathered his chakra in his throat.

He used a very deep tone to imitate Hiruzen's voice.

"It's me, Hiruzen."

Aoba's words, from his tone to his voice, were almost exactly the same as Hiruzen's. It was impossible to tell the difference at all.

This kind of sudden thing made Hiruzen's eyes widen almost instantly.

He couldn't believe his ears.

"You..."

Hiruzen had never met such an existence that could disguise their voice as someone else before. The most he saw was that they would disguise their voice so that no one could hear their original voice. However, this person directly simulated the voice of another person. This was really beyond his understanding.

"It's just a small ability."

Aoba deliberately leaked this ability to Hiruzen. He was not showing off, nor was he deliberately revealing anything. Instead, he was laying a foundation for his future plans.

You should know...

It could be said that he had planted a seed in Hiruzen's head.

There was no need for him to do such a thing as water the plants.

As long as it was at the right time.

This seed could naturally take root and sprout, and even give birth to an unexpected effect.

"..."

Hiruzen did not say anything, but his face had already become ugly. He had a sense of fear toward unknown things in his heart.

Now, the abilities of this Uzumaki clan ninja had already made his heart feel instinctive fear.

This was no longer a small matter.

To be able to stand here and imitate his voice in front of him today, would he pretend to be him and imitate his voice in other places tomorrow?

If that happened, things would become troublesome.

Most importantly...

Other than his voice.

Who else could this person imitate?

This question mark suddenly appeared on Hiruzen's head, causing him to feel extremely puzzled. Moreover, in his mind, he raised the danger level of this ninja called Uzumaki Nagato by another level.

Creak...

Just as Hiruzen was deep in thought.

The door to Danzo's room opened.

The person who opened the door was Konohagakure's Consultant, Utatane Koharu.

"Eh?"

The moment Koharu opened the door, she immediately saw Aoba, who was wearing a mask, standing at the door. She let out a soft sound of surprise, showing her doubts.

"Who are you?"

"Why are you here?"

"What are you doing here?"

Koharu directly asked Aoba three consecutive questions. When she asked these questions, she saw Hiruzen next to Aoba. She knew that this person might be related to Hiruzen, but it still caused her dissatisfaction.

She didn't like people wearing masks!

Especially when the person was wearing a mask in front of her!

This made her feel unhappy that she didn't know who the other person was!

Other than the above points...

She disliked the person wearing a mask in Danzo's room even more. This would remind her of the unreasonable kid who treated Danzo's injuries.

"Koharu-sama, have you forgotten me so quickly? You were the one who wanted to keep me here and not let me leave."

Aoba said meaningfully.

After saying that.

Aoba directly walked into Danzo's room.

He did not ask for Koharu's permission at all.

"What do you mean?" Koharu frowned. She was the dignified Konohagakure's Consultant. Encountered such a thing, she would instantly be very unhappy. So she glared at Aoba and said, "Take off your mask!"

"I won't take off my mask. As the reason, let Sandaime-sama answer you."

When Aoba spoke, every step seemed to be like traveling through space, crossing a huge distance.

In just a few short steps.

He had already arrived in front of Danzo's bed under Hiruzen and Koharu's gazes.

This feeling brought them an extremely unreal feeling.

The steps were still the same. The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via /n/ov/el/b/in.

However, the distance of each step has changed from the original distance to a large space, showing a feeling of shrinking.

"You..." Koharu was just about to intercept Aoba, but before she could do anything, this person was already beside Danzo.

"Koharu, let me explain..." Hiruzen helplessly walked to Koharu's side and said in a low voice. After all the things earlier, he found that this Uzumaki clan ninja was not simple. The sense of oppression he felt was no weaker than that of the Uzumaki Mito from back then.

"What is going on?" There were a lot of question marks in Koharu's head.

"He is the one who treated Danzo last time," Hiruzen said in a low voice.

"Are you sure?" Koharu stared at Aoba carefully a few times. After that, she added, "This aura is not quite right!"

"I think he cast a certain camouflage. This kind of camouflage is very advanced. It can even imitate my voice. The one who talk to you outside the door just now was not me, but him." Just thinking about it made Hiruzen feel a little scary.

"There is actually such a thing!" Koharu's eyes widened. She recalled the person who talk to her outside and did not detect any abnormalities at all. If Hiruzen did not say it, she would still think that the person who spoke was Hiruzen.

"The most important thing is..."

Hiruzen suddenly took a deep breath. He drags his voice out for a long time. Finally, he took a deep look at Koharu and said, "He is from the Uzumaki Clan!"

"Are you sure?" Koharu's expression changed again and again. As Konohagakure Consultant, she was very clear about the concept of a ninja from the Uzumaki Clan. She then asked, "This is not a small matter."

"I can be sure that he is definitely a ninja from the Uzumaki Clan. Moreover, he himself admitted this matter. The only thing that I do not understand is why he came here." Hiruzen said in a low voice.

"What is he going to do now?" Koharu frowned. After hearing Hiruzen's words, she did not dare to act rashly.

"He said he wants to treat Danzo!" Hiruzen's voice became deeper.

...

Right now.

Aoba stood next to Danzo's bed.

He lowered his head to look at Danzo.

Danzo seemed to have sensed that someone had arrived. He opened his left eye. When he saw Aoba who was wearing a mask, he closed his eyes again.

This feeling was as if he did not put Aoba in his eyes.

"Don't you recognize me?"

The corners of Aoba's mouth behind the mask curled up slightly. As he spoke, his finger gently tapped on Danzo's body. Immediately, a sealing power surged out from Danzo's heart and spread throughout Danzo's entire body, directly taking control of Danzo's body.

Suddenly.

Danzo widened his eyes.

He immediately understood this person's identity.

It was not someone else.

It was the person who had placed these seals on his body.

For a moment.

Danzo's eyes flashed with fear.

Not to mention that his current body made him unable to speak at all, even if his body returned to normal, because of the Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal's restraint, he still could not say anything.

"Do you understand what I mean by coming here?"

Aoba said indifferently. His finger left Danzo's body. After that, he gently hooked his finger, and Danzo's body seemed to be pulled by a force, directly sitting up from the bed.

Crack Crack Crack Crack...

The joints of Danzo's body emitted crisp sounds because they had not moved for a long time. With these sounds, Danzo sat up in a daze.

This change fell into the eyes of Hiruzen and Koharu, and it seemed that Danzo sat up on his own as if it was an incredible medical miracle.

"Now I am going to treat you!"

After Aoba finished speaking, he pushed his finger again, and that chakra that contained the sealing power directly returned along the same path and quickly returned to Danzo's heart.

In a split second.

The feeling of being controlled was gone.

This made Danzo feel like he had just survived a disaster. It was as if his life did not belong to him at that moment.

Alarm.

Shock.

Fear.

All kinds of negative emotions filled Danzo's heart.

These emotions told him to stay away from the person in front of him. Even if he could not get treatment, he could not get close to this person.

This person was extremely dangerous!

But...

There was nothing he could do.

Just as Danzo's heart was a mess, Aoba had already arrived by his side. He grabbed his shoulders with both hands and lifted him up.

Chapter 446: Medical Miracle!

"What are you doing?!"

When Koharu saw Aoba's actions, she immediately roared. After that, she quickly rushed toward Aoba and glared at him.

It was obvious that Aoba was doing bad things to Danzo.

Only...

Aoba acted as if he did not hear Koharu's words. He did not even look at her and continued to do what he was doing.

Aoba took Danzo off the bed and placed him on the ground. His movements seemed very violent, but in fact, they were very gentle. It did not make Danzo feel the slightest pain.

Just after Danzo was put down on the ground.

Aoba took a step forward with his right foot, and suddenly a majestic chakra surged out, pouring into the ground.

Almost in an instant.

This chakra formed one special pattern after another on the ground.

These patterns seemed to have life.

As it moved in the ground moved, it gradually form an extremely special symbol and then created a barrier.

This barrier was emitting violet flames.

From the effect it produced, it was no different from Shishienjin(Four Violet Flames Formation), but the form it presented was completely different.

Shishienjin(Four Violet Flames Formation) was a barrier formed based on a four-corner geometrical shape.

The foundation of this barrier was a square.

The barrier that Aoba was using now was not the square foundation of Shishienjin(Four Violet Flames Formation). Instead, it directly drew a circle. What sustain the barrier was not the four corners, but Aoba who was at the center of the circle.

"This..."

After Koharu rushed to Aoba, she immediately saw the barrier that suddenly appeared in front of her. This made her feel an indescribable sense of vigilance.

It seems that if she rushes forward again.

It would do her great harm.

At once.

Koharu stopped. She did not act rashly. Instead, she stood outside the barrier and silently looked at Aoba who was inside.

"What do you mean by this?" Koharu asked.

"Means nothing."

Aoba said indifferently. He didn't even look at Koharu when he spoke. His gaze was fixed on Danzo.

"I said it before."

"I'm here to treat Danzo."

"Actually, I don't quite understand what you mean either..."

"You guys seem to be doing this for Danzo's own good, but in reality, you are all trying to stop me from treating Danzo."

"Do you want Danzo to die?"

Aoba's last sentence could be said to be straight to the soul. After he said it, Koharu suddenly became silent.

In fact.

Koharu still did not trust Aoba in her heart.

But...

The truth was right in front of their eyes.

The one who treated Danzo last time was this young man in front of them. After that, they invited many medical ninjas. Everyone unanimously believed that Danzo had indeed been healed. This could be said to be a medical miracle.

Based on the previous incident.

Koharu recognized this stranger's medical ninjutsu. However, she had a lot of doubts about the latter's motives.

"How will you treat Danzo?"

Koharu couldn't help but ask again. After Danzo's injury was treated, she found many medical ninjas.

Through these medical ninjas.

The suggestion she got was not only that Danzo had no problems after the treatment.

More importantly...

The medical advice given by these medical ninjas was to maintain this current state.

There was no need for any more additional treatment.

Because Danzo's injuries had already been healed.

There was no point in using any follow-up treatment methods.

All he had to do was slowly recover through time.

But...

Now, the medical ninja from the Uzumaki Clan in front of him was actually treating Danzo again. In Koharu's eyes, such a thing was a violation of common sense.

It was really not worth believing.

Koharu had always believed that this person had other reasons, but he was just hiding them.

It was just that...

After Koharu asked this question.

Aoba ignored her.

Instead, he focused all his attention on Danzo.

After setting up a simple Shishienjin(Four Violet Flames Formation), he no longer had to worry about Hiruzen and Koharu's sudden sneak attack.

It was not that these two people could bring him great harm.

If he divided his attention because he did not want to be disturbed while treating Danzo, it would greatly affect his efficiency.

Just as he finished preparing all of this.

Aoba stare at Danzo who had already opened his eyes and spoken in a low voice.

"Your life is saved by me."

"If I can save you, I can kill you."

"You better understand this relationship."

Aoba directly threatened Danzo with his life and death. He had read Danzo's memories and knew very well that no matter how Danzo tried to disguise himself, he could not hide the most instinctive fear of death in the depths of his heart.

In fact.

Aoba could still understand this.

Whether it was Danzo, Hiruzen, or Onoki, the older they were, the more they experienced the world, the more they cherished the beauty of life, and they were even more unwilling to sacrifice themselves, which made them cherish their lives even more.

People often think that older people have no regrets, but it was precisely this kind of people who were used to the scenery that miss the scenery the most.

This was why it was rare to see older people committing suicide, but was more likely to be fooled by various life-saving folk remedies.

Usually, those who could easily make sacrifices and give up their lives at will are all young people...

After Aoba read Danzo's memories, he understood this more clearly.

Everything that Danzo had done at Root, whether it was nurturing his trusted followers, branding Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal, or constantly eradicating dissidents, were all constantly consolidating his status, allowing him to live a safer life.

After hearing Aoba's words.

Danzo's pupils fiercely contracted.

He was very clear that the person in front of him was not lying. Just the seal on his heart could easily crush his heart and take his life at any time.

This kind of thing was like a ticking time bomb in his heart.

It was very dangerous!

Once it was implanted, you would be completely controlled by the perpetrator!

Danzo was very clear that if he wanted to ask for this seal to be removed, he could only rely on the outsider's strength. Not to mention that he could not tell others about Aoba, even if he could, he would not easily hand over an important organ like the heart to others to deal with.

He did not trust anyone, even if that person was Hiruzen.

Right now, he only had this kind of thought. If he did not disobey this person in front of him, then he would not have had any problems.

In this way, he was still safe.

The other party would implant such a complicated thing in his body, which proved that he had such value.

If there was value, there would be no danger to his life.

However.

If the heart was given to other medical ninjas, it would be fine if the seal was removed. If there was even a tiny bit of something, whether it was discovered by the person in front of him or accidentally damaged his heart, there was only death waiting for him.

Such a bet.

The price was too high.

He could not gamble.

Aoba keenly sensed Danzo's inner thoughts through the change in his eyes. After that, he did not say anything. He directly squatted in a half-squat position and slammed his right hand heavily on the ground.

Snapped!

Along with a clear and crisp sound.

A violent chakra poured into the ground along with the right hand of Aoba. After that, it quickly spread around, forming black lines.

These lines spread out radially to the surroundings.

Soon.

When these diverging lines reached the far end, they began to rotate clockwise and slowly joined together along a fixed trajectory.

Hum!

After these black lines formed, they immediately trembled and formed a seal, locking Danzo inside the seal.

...

Outside the barrier.

Hiruzen and Koharu stared at what was happening inside with their eyes wide open. Every tiny change in this place affected their hearts to a great extent.

"Hiruzen, what kind of sealing technique is this?" Koharu could not help but ask. She could be considered to be experienced and knowledgeable. She had always followed the Second Hokage, but she had never seen such a seal.

"I'm not too sure either." Hiruzen shook his head. Even though he was called Ninjutsu Professor, there was still something difficult for him to grasp, and that was the sealing technique.

"Even you don't know?" Koharu took a deep breath, and her expression became even more serious. She was even more worried about Danzo's situation.

"The Uzumaki Clan is too mysterious. They have many sealing techniques, and the clansmen who can master these sealing techniques are different. I'm afraid that even some people in the Uzumaki Clan can't recognize these sealing techniques." Hiruzen said in a deep voice.

"It seems that we can only wait and see." Koharu nodded. She already understood what Hiruzen meant. Now that a barrier separated them, forcibly breaking the barrier would only cause greater damage. The best way now was to wait here.

"That's right." Hiruzen nodded as well. His gaze became even more serious. Facing a ninja from the Uzumaki Clan who was wearing a mask and did not know what he looked like, there were many things in his mind that he felt very bad about.

...

Aoba placed Danzo in the seal not because he needed this seal, but because he needed a cover.

Right now, he had already created an image that combined medical ninjutsu and sealing techniques together.

Then, he had to stabilize this image.

Otherwise, it was very likely that he would give himself away and cause some difficult problems to solve.

"I'm going to start."

Aoba reached out with his right hand and slapped Danzo's chest. A hazy green light appeared on his hand. It was Shosen Jutsu(Mystical Palm Technique).

This Shosen Jutsu(Mystical Palm Technique).

It was also a cover-up.

It was the same as the seal on the outside.

He did all of this just to hide the Sozo Saisei(Creation Rebirth) that Aoba was going to use.

Aoba was very clear that once he directly used this technique to heal Danzo, then the information that he had mastered this medical ninjutsu would definitely be leaked out.

At that time, it would attract Tsunade's attention.

In that case, there was a possibility of his identity being exposed.

However.

If he doesn't use Sozo Saisei(Creation Rebirth). n(0)vel(b)(j)(n)was the platform where this chapter was initially revealed on N0v3l.B1n.

It was impossible to restore Danzo to his normal state in a short period of time.

So...

Regardless of whether it was the seal or the current Shosen Jutsu(Mystical Palm Technique), both of them were blocking Sozo Saisei(Creation Rebirth) allowing them to cover the true core technique.

Hum, Hum, Hum, Hum...

Along with the terrifying chakra that contained extremely strong life force surging into Danzo's body, Danzo's body continuously trembled uncontrollably, as if all the cells in his body were following Aoba's chakra to produce different degrees of rhythm.

Aoba's chakra was continuously guiding Danzo's chakra within his body, making Danzo's chakra circulate according to Sozo Saisei(Creation Rebirth)'s method.

Gradually.

The damaged cells in Danzo's body that had not yet recovered began to slowly fall off. New cells quickly grew out like bamboo shoots after a rain.

This was not healing injuries.

This was controlling Danzo's cells to regenerate.

Of course.

This method greatly consumes Danzo's body.

Danzo will age even more than before, and the chakra in his body will be completely exhausted. It will take a long time for him to recover, and various functions of his body will decline to different degrees.

The reason was simple...

Danzo's chakra was not enough to support him to use this kind of healing technique, but it was formed through Aoba's chakra, and in the end, it would consume a large amount of vitality.

It was a method of making up for the deficit.

Aoba did not care about Danzo, because Danzo would not have a long time. He did not intend to let Danzo live for too long. As long as Minato became the Fourth Hokage, Danzo would be eliminated by him.

However.

Now.

He still needed Danzo.

Gradually.

As time passed.

Half an hour passed.

"Phew..."

Aoba slowly let out a sigh of relief and withdrew his hand. He put on a very exhausted and tired look. In fact, it basically had no effect on him.

After that.

Aoba stared at Danzo who was lying on the ground and said indifferently, "Danzo-sama, the ground is cold. Don't lie down all the time. Get up."

Aoba's words immediately made Hiruzen and Koharu's hearts tighten.

Immediately after.

Hiruzen and Koharu witnessed a medical miracle that subverted their knowledge.

They saw...

Danzo, who was lying on the ground, raised his hand to support himself on the ground. He shook his head left and right as if he was adapting to this body that he had not used for a long time.

"Thank... thank you..."

Danzo's throat was very hoarse. It could be heard that he had not spoken for a long time. His mood was extremely complicated, and he did not know how to face Aoba.

Chapter 447: Turning From Pink to Black Was Easy, Turning From Black to Pink Was Difficult!

Danzo had a very complicated feeling just now. He never thought that he would actually be healed just like that.

Right now, his body felt a little sore.

This feeling made him feel that his body had not been used for a long time.

However.

This still made Danzo very excited.

After all.

Being able to feel pain also meant that he was gradually able to feel his body. It could be said that he was not far from being able to easily move again.

"Your body is fine now. You just need to get used to it for a few days and you can be like before."

Aoba looked at Danzo. His eyes gradually became cold. After this treatment, the next time he attacked Danzo should be to take his life. This chapter made its debut appearance via N0v3lB1n.

He never planned to let Danzo go.

It was just a matter of time.

Back then, when it came to whether or not he would save Danzo, he was still conflicted. In the end, he chose to treat Danzo. It was also because there was still a certain amount of value in treating Danzo.

After saying that.

Aoba's toes lightly tapped.

Following that, the black symbols on the ground quickly gathered around his body as if they had come alive.

These lines that were made using his chakra, all of them returned to his body.

After that.

Aoba gently waved his hand, and the circular barrier around them immediately dispersed. His gaze followed the barrier and fixed on Hiruzen.

"Sandaime-sama."

"There are no more problems with Danzo's injuries."

"I have achieved my goal."

"I am leaving now."

Aoba said slowly. When he said this, he had already started to walk toward Hiruzen.

"Is this really your goal?"

Hiruzen stared at Aoba. He did not attack Aoba at this time. Of course, he did not take any other actions. He wanted to tell himself that the result of the matter was the same as what the other people said, but Hiruzen could not believe it.

Just as Hiruzen was speaking.

Koharu immediately ran in Danzo's direction. She wanted to see Danzo's condition with her own eyes. During this period of time, she had been taking care of Danzo. She was very concerned about Danzo's recovery.

Just like this.

Aoba could be said to have brushed past Koharu.

However.

At this time, Koharu did not care about Aoba at all.

Aoba walked up to Hiruzen step by step. He did not wait for Hiruzen to call him, he took the initiative to stop in front of him.

"Let me give you a piece of advice..."

Aoba said slowly. His voice was very low and there was a threat in his tone then he said, "Don't try to find me. That will only make your situation even worse!"

Bang!

After Aoba said this, a loud explosion was heard.

After the loud explosion.

The person in front of Hiruzen disappeared.

"Shadow clone?!!!!"

When Hiruzen saw this scene, his eyes instantly widened. He was extremely shocked. Everything he saw today had far exceeded his understanding.

These things were no longer can be described with just words.

This was simply terrifying!

This was a ninja from the Uzumaki Clan who possessed a powerful body, sealing techniques, and medical ninjutsu.

Moreover, he could even simulate other people's voices.

Most importantly...

The person who treated Danzo here. In the end, it was only a shadow clone.

If even a shadow clone was like this...

Then how powerful was the original body?

Hiruzen was already shocked by this reality. He stared blankly at the empty space where Aoba had disappeared. His mind was already a mess.

"Hiruzen, quickly come and see Danzo!"

At this moment, Koharu's voice rang out, pulling Hiruzen back from his shock. It directly pulled his attention back.

"Ah?!"

Hiruzen instantly recovered from his stunned state. Only then did he think of the purpose of that ninja from the Uzumaki Clan coming here. He wanted to treat Danzo.

According to the words of that ninja.

Now, Danzo has been fully healed.

Then...

He can finally ask Danzo about these things!

Hiruzen suddenly felt the pressure decrease. He deeply understood one principle. If there was something he didn't understand, he could ask Danzo for advice. There was no need for him to silently think everything.

"Coming."

Hiruzen immediately responded. After that, he strode toward Danzo. When he arrived, Koharu had already helped Danzo up from the ground and was ready to help him to the bed.

"Danzo, how do you feel?"

Hiruzen immediately asked with concern. Since he had been with Danzo since he had become Hokage, he had never felt anything. Over time, it had become a habit. However, during this period of time that Danzo had a problem. Only then did he realize how important Danzo was to him.

For many things he encountered now, he couldn't even judge the consequences after making a decision.

This was a very terrible thing!

However, this was the most chaotic time in the whole ninja world.

He had no room to adjust.

"Not... not bad..."

Danzo gritted his teeth and said. After Aoba's treatment just now, his body constantly felt numb and itchy. This kind of feeling made him feel as if countless ants were crawling on his body, and he had no way to scratch the itch, causing him to feel a bit uncomfortable.

However.

This feeling.

Other than bringing him discomfort.

More than that, there was joy in his heart.

He felt as if his body was reborn!

This feeling was very strong, just like when he was injured when he was a child. The wound would quickly heal and scab over, and even more tender skin would appear.

Danzo immediately had this feeling.

With the passage of time, he has gradually become old, especially since the scab on his skin has already turned black.

He thought that this situation would not change again.

He accepted this reality even more.

However.

After Aoba's treatment.

He found that his skin scab had turned from black to pink again.

As the saying goes, turning from pink to black was easy, turning from black to pink was difficult!

Even Danzo himself felt extremely shocked at this scene.

At this moment, Danzo felt that he had returned to the time of his youth, and his body was full of new vitality. Other than feeling a little itchy and having lost all his chakra, he felt better than any other time.

Of course.

He did not know.

This feeling was achieved by overdrawing his body function.

When Aoba used Sozo Saisei(Creation Rebirth) on Danzo, he didn't use too much chakra and just acted. To complete this process, he mobilizes Danzo's own cells to overdraw the body's functions and vitality.

"Are you really okay?!"

Hiruzen stared at Danzo with wide eyes. After seeing Danzo's appearance, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, and he was extremely nervous.

Even though he was already mentally prepared.

He understood that Danzo might have been healed.

After all, the other party was a very powerful medical ninja. Since he had the confidence to come here, it was enough to show that he had the ability to heal Danzo completely.

However.

This still made him particularly shocked.

He was very clear about Danzo's injuries!

From the beginning, all the medical ninjas were helpless, to the point that almost all the medical ninjas had given up, but now, Danzo could speak.

In a short period of time.

He had achieved incredible changes.

The ability of this medical ninja greatly surpassed his understanding of medical ninjutsu. He even felt that his student Tsunade's attainments in medical ninjutsu might not even be comparable to that ninja from the Uzumaki Clan.

Strange!

At this time, a big question mark appeared on Hiruzen's head.

According to his understanding.

There were very few ninjas in the Uzumaki Clan who mastered medical ninjutsu. Their vitality was very strong and they almost did not need any medical ninjas.

Coupled with such medical ninjutsu that has reached the state of perfection, there was no second person in the entire ninja world.

Then the problem was...

Who taught him medical ninjutsu?

"I... I'm fine... I'm fine now..."

Danzo sat on the bed. He didn't lie down anymore. He had been lying down all this time, and he had long been numb. Now that he could finally move again, he didn't choose to stand up. Instead, he slowly adapted to his body while sitting down.

To be able to be like this.

For him.

It was already a very big breakthrough.

"Great!"

A hint of surprise appeared in Hiruzen's eyes. He had been waiting for Danzo to say this. After that, he immediately pulled a chair and sat in front of Danzo.

"Danzo, you don't know how difficult I have been in this period of time, and you don't know how much I need you. Now, not only do I need you, but Konohagakure also needs you!" Hiruzen expressed his thoughts to Danzo. He had never been in charge of Konohagakure alone when Danzo was not around. This period of time made him realize his lack of ability.

"Hehehe..." After hearing Hiruzen's words, Danzo directly sneered a few times, thinking that now you know my role.

"Danzo, now I have something that I can't figure out. Now that your injury has been healed. Let's talk about the ninja who treated your injury, he is a ninja from the Uzumaki Clan!" Hiruzen said coldly. He was very conflicted right now and did not know how to deal with that person.

"Ah... This... En..." The corners of Danzo's mouth twitched slightly. Just as he was about to say something, he felt a numbing sensation coming from the root of his tongue, instantly making him withdraw his thoughts.

"Eh?" When Hiruzen saw Danzo's strange reaction, he was stunned. His eyes flashed with doubt, and he asked, "What do you mean?"

"We..." Danzo couldn't say a word. He wanted to say something else, but if it was related to Aoba, he couldn't say it.

"Don't you have an idea too? " Hiruzen asked.

"Yes." Danzo immediately took this opportunity to nod. In his opinion, this was the best solution.

"Since that's the case, for the sake of him treating you, this matter will be put to rest for now!" Hiruzen also had a gentle side in his heart, not only on the surface. He then thought of another place and said, "This ninja from the Uzumaki Clan suddenly appeared and I found that he could change his voice. I suspect that he was in Konohagakure and disguised himself. Do you have any way to find him?"

"..."

Danzo was dumbfounded. His forehead was covered in cold sweat. The topic he spoke of was all directed to that person. His heart was roaring, but there was no change on his face. He could not say it.

"Danzo, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Hiruzen stared at Danzo doubtfully. He felt that Danzo's reaction was a little abnormal, so he immediately asked.

"What do you think?"

At this time, Koharu opened her mouth. She rolled her eyes at Hiruzen and said snappily, "Danzo's body has just recovered and hasn't fully adapted yet. You just ask a bunch of questions, who would feel comfortable?"

"I was careless." Hiruzen nodded. He immediately realized that now was not the time to talk about this. He should give Danzo more time to rest. These things were not urgent at the moment. He could talk about it later.

After that.

Hiruzen stood up from his chair.

"Danzo."

"I'll go back first."

"During this period of time, you should rest."

"When you get better..."

"Let's talk about these topics again!"

After Hiruzen finished speaking, he directly turned around and walked out. The opposite side of this room was the Hokage's office, so it would not take much time.

"..."

Danzo's eyes flashed with deep helplessness. He really had no way to discuss this, but he could see that Hiruzen was concerned about these things.

"Sigh..."

Danzo heaved a heavy sigh of relief. No one knew better than him. At this time, his body had indeed recovered, but the so-called medical ninja did not completely heal him. Instead, he left something in his body.

It was to the extent that he was in a healthy state on the surface, but in reality, his life was still in the hands of others.

This was a feeling he disliked very much.

However, he had no other choice.

"Danzo, don't think about what Hiruzen said. What you need to do now is to take a good rest and recuperate." Koharu said from the side.

"Koharu, thank you for this period of time." Danzo nodded and said.

"Why are you thanking me!" As Koharu spoke, she seemed to have thought of something and her cheeks turned slightly red.

Chapter 448: Chaotic Ninja World

Anbu Dormitory.

Aoba, who was lying on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes. There was a flash of light in his eyes.

"Danzo has recovered."

Aoba had already obtained everything he had done from the canceled shadow clone.

Now, Danzo had regained his normal ability to move.

This could already help Hiruzen.

In addition, the current situation in the ninja world was chaotic.

It was enough to make the current situation complicated.

But this was exactly what he wanted.

"Let's just wait for a good show now!"

The corners of Aoba's mouth slightly curled up, revealing a meaningful smile. As for the Third Ninja World War, he no longer thought about the possible results. Instead, he just had to do what he needed to do.

Now he gradually understood why Black Zetsu only wanted to save his mother yet his plan was so detailed that he had to wait for many years.

As the saying went.

The plan did not change fast!

Black Zetsu wanted to complete the plan, but in the process of executing the plan, he encountered all kinds of changes.

It was not until he said those words to Madara, that he rescued his mother after an unknown amount of time.

Aoba also felt the same way.

After going through the layout last time, he found that the Third Raikage actually directly rushed into Konohagakure and injured Danzo. Only then did he realize that many things were full of variables, and it was almost impossible to complete this special layout through some simple information gaps without any mistakes.

It was because of the experience from last time.

Aoba understood that he didn't need to think too much about the result when setting up the plan. He just needed to do it.

The more he did...

The better the effect would be!

No matter what the result was, he can accept it. As long as he was still inside Konoha, there will be no major accidents in the village, and everything could still be under his control.

Gradually.

Aoba understands that no one can completely control such things.

All he could do was be a part of it.

The rest of the things would be left to different people.

After all, in the ninja world, these ninjas are the most essential, and these ninjas interweave this colorful world.

...

Three days later.

There was another knock on the door of Aoba's room.

"Coming."

Aoba immediately got up and walked toward the door. He also felt that there was no time left. After all, so many days had already passed. No matter how slow it was, it would not be too slow.

Creak...

After Aoba opened the door, he immediately saw Eaton standing in front of him. He saw that the latter's face was incomparably serious. That serious gaze had not even spoken yet, but it already made Aoba understand what was going on.

"Brother Eaton, what happened?" Aoba lowered his voice. Even though he already had a premonition in his heart, he did not say this out loud. Instead, he gave this opportunity to Eaton.

"Iwagakure's ninjas have invaded the Country of Fire. They are now fighting against Konoha's ninjas led by White Fang. The situation is very tense." Eaton nodded and said.

"I understand," Aoba said expressionlessly.

"I still have other things to do. That's all the information I have at the moment. I will take my leave first." Eaton took a deep look at Aoba. Aoba did not explain these things to him, but he just felt that Aoba might care a lot.

"En."

Aoba watched as Eaton left.

Recently, he had also discovered that ever since he had branded Eaton the Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal, he had become more and more professional.

Many things don't need him to say, he can do them himself.

This was already a mature Brother Eaton!

After that.

Aoba simply changed his clothes and left the Anbu dormitory. He had not gone out for a few days. Suddenly feeling the sunlight outside was a little uncomfortable and felt a little dazzling.

But almost in an instant, Aoba felt one gaze after another fall on him. These gazes were all hidden in different places. They were the group of people who had been watching him after he entered the Anbu dormitory.

However.

The difference from before was...

After these people saw Aoba, they did not follow Aoba anymore. Instead, they left one after another, as if they were waiting to confirm whether Aoba had been in the Anbu dormitory all this time.

Not long after.

The owner of the last gaze also left.

Now, there was only Aoba. He was still silently standing at the entrance of the Anbu dormitory and was slightly amazed by what had happened.

"Interesting."

Aoba whispered to himself. He had already understood that these people were following orders to monitor him. After all, he had just come back from the front line alive. They still had to see if he had any abnormal actions.

Now he had come out of the Anbu dormitory.

Not only that.

During the time he stayed in the Anbu dormitory, he had also treated Danzo's injuries as a ninja from the Uzumaki Clan.

This action completely separated him from the Uzumaki clan ninja that Hiruzen was looking for, leaving him without any suspicion.

It was precisely because of this.

These eyes staring at him left their post one after another.

"Let me sense it."

Aoba slowly closed his eyes and pointed her right index finger to her forehead. Immediately after that, the perception ability in his body was raised to the maximum. Finally, it spread out and enveloped everything.

There was no one left!

Aoba found that there was no one watching him here.

They walked away very cleanly.

Not even one remained.

"Then this is much more convenient."

Aoba's hands immediately began to form seals, and along with the circulation of chakra on his body, three shadow clones that looked exactly the same as him appeared beside him.

"You are No. 1."

"You are No. 2."

"You are No. 3."

"Start the plan now!"

Aoba said coldly. As he spoke, his right hand patted the shoulders of the three shadow clones beside him.

"Yes!"

After the three shadow clones received the corresponding number, they all understood their respective tasks. After that, they used Hiraishin no Jutsu(Flying Thunder God Technique) separately and quickly disappeared, as if they had never appeared at all.

"Hahahahaha..."

Aoba suddenly laughed. He was in a good mood now. He did not hesitate and walked toward Ramen Ichiraku.

Not long after.

Aoba arrived at Ramen Ichiraku Noodle House.

It was just as he had expected. Before the war, very few people had come to the shop to eat ramen. Now, the shop was empty. Other than Teuchi, there was no one else.

"Brother Teuchi!"

Aoba lifted the curtain and sat on the chair, greeting Teuchi with a smile.

"Aoba, you are here!"

Teuchi looked over. When he saw Aoba, he narrowed his eyes and smiled. He looked quite happy. He said, "What do you want to eat?"

"Give me a serving of ramen." Aoba casually said, "Brother Teuchi, is there anything to be happy about? I think you are in a good mood."

"Yes." Teuchi said slowly as received Aoba's order, "I received news today that the war has already started. The fight over there is quite fierce. This is a good thing!"

"Did I hear it wrong?" Aoba was stunned for a moment. He didn't understand what Teuchi meant so he asked, "Do you think that the start of the war is good news?"

"Of course, it is good news!" Teuchi nodded without hesitation. His narrowed eyes glanced at Aoba. After that, he said, "If the war does not start, it feels like there is a dark cloud above the head at all times yet it does not rain. It is a very unpleasant feeling. But once the war begins, it is like the rain has begun to fall. As long as it starts to rain, it means that the sunny day is not far away."

"This..." Aoba did not expect that Teuchi would understand it like this.

"War is the same. War has never begun. Being in a state of readiness will make everyone feel extremely tired. Now that the war has begun, it means that the end is not far away." Teuchi said with a smile.

"It doesn't seem to be a problem for you to say that." The corners of Aoba's mouth twitched slightly. He seemed to have gotten to know Teuchi once again. He could clearly remember the last time he met Teuchi. The latter had expressed his concern for the war in his room.

"After the war began, Minato should be coming back soon!" Teuchi spoke of the topic he was most concerned about. All along, he had been thinking about Minato who had left. The initial posting of this chapter occurred via N0v3l.B1(j)n.

"It should be!" Aoba nodded. He had also thought of this problem. It would depend on the timing of Minato's return. If he came back too early, it seems that it was not good if he stops Minato.

...

Sunagakure.

Swish!

A figure silently appeared outside of Kazekage's office and where he arrived, there was a black Flying Thunder God Formula.

The appearance of this person just happened to be the Third Kazekage.

However, this person was not the Third Kazekage, but Aoba's advanced paper clone.

"Now it depends on how you choose."

Aoba's advanced paper clone began to eavesdrop in Kazekage's office. He wanted to listen to the conversation inside and make a follow-up decision according to Sunagakure's decision.

...

Kumogakure.

Almost at the same time.

A figure appeared outside Raikage's office.

This person was also Aoba's advanced paper clone, but at this time, his appearance was the Third Tsuchikage Onoki.

"Third Raikage, what will you choose?"

This Aoba's advanced paper clone also began to eavesdrop on the meeting in Raikage's office.

...

At this time.

The news that Iwagakure and Konohagakure had a direct confrontation was already known throughout the ninja world.

Almost every force was having an emergency meeting.

They were discussing the follow-up decisions.

Whether it was Iwagakure or Konohagakure, they were all the Major Ninja Village of the Ninja World. After these two villages started fighting, it was the beginning of the chaos.

The other big forces were considering how to get a share in this chaotic situation.

Small powers were starting to think about which forces to ally with.

Their needs were different.

The goals of each force were also different.

...

On the other side.

Kirigakure.

A figure officially stepped into Kirigakure. The white fog around him could not hide his muscular body.

Chapter 447: Turning From Pink to Black Was Easy, Turning From Black to Pink Was Difficult!

Danzo had a very complicated feeling just now. He never thought that he would actually be healed just like that.

Right now, his body felt a little sore.

This feeling made him feel that his body had not been used for a long time.

However.

This still made Danzo very excited.

After all.

Being able to feel pain also meant that he was gradually able to feel his body. It could be said that he was not far from being able to easily move again.

"Your body is fine now. You just need to get used to it for a few days and you can be like before."

Aoba looked at Danzo. His eyes gradually became cold. After this treatment, the next time he attacked Danzo should be to take his life. This chapter made its debut appearance via N0v3lB1n.

He never planned to let Danzo go.

It was just a matter of time.

Back then, when it came to whether or not he would save Danzo, he was still conflicted. In the end, he chose to treat Danzo. It was also because there was still a certain amount of value in treating Danzo.

After saying that.

Aoba's toes lightly tapped.

Following that, the black symbols on the ground quickly gathered around his body as if they had come alive.

These lines that were made using his chakra, all of them returned to his body.

After that.

Aoba gently waved his hand, and the circular barrier around them immediately dispersed. His gaze followed the barrier and fixed on Hiruzen.

"Sandaime-sama."

"There are no more problems with Danzo's injuries."

"I have achieved my goal."

"I am leaving now."

Aoba said slowly. When he said this, he had already started to walk toward Hiruzen.

"Is this really your goal?"

Hiruzen stared at Aoba. He did not attack Aoba at this time. Of course, he did not take any other actions. He wanted to tell himself that the result of the matter was the same as what the other people said, but Hiruzen could not believe it.

Just as Hiruzen was speaking.

Koharu immediately ran in Danzo's direction. She wanted to see Danzo's condition with her own eyes. During this period of time, she had been taking care of Danzo. She was very concerned about Danzo's recovery.

Just like this.

Aoba could be said to have brushed past Koharu.

However.

At this time, Koharu did not care about Aoba at all.

Aoba walked up to Hiruzen step by step. He did not wait for Hiruzen to call him, he took the initiative to stop in front of him.

Aoba said slowly. His voice was very low and there was a threat in his tone then he said, "Don't try to find me. That will only make your situation even worse!"

Hiruzen suddenly felt the pressure decrease. He deeply understood one principle. If there was something he didn't understand, he could ask Danzo for advice. There was no need for him to silently think everything.

"Coming."

Hiruzen immediately responded. After that, he strode toward Danzo. When he arrived, Koharu had already helped Danzo up from the ground and was ready to help him to the bed.

"Danzo, how do you feel?"

Hiruzen immediately asked with concern. Since he had been with Danzo since he had become Hokage, he had never felt anything. Over time, it had become a habit. However, during this period of time that Danzo had a problem. Only then did he realize how important Danzo was to him.

Hiruzen expressed his thoughts to Danzo. He had never been in charge of Konohagakure alone when Danzo was not around. This period of time made him realize his lack of ability.

Hiruzen stood up from his chair.

"During this period of time, you should rest."

"When you get better..."

"Let's talk about these topics again!"

After Hiruzen finished speaking, he directly turned around and walked out. The opposite side of this room was the Hokage's office, so it would not take much time.

"..."

Danzo's eyes flashed with deep helplessness. He really had no way to discuss this, but he could see that Hiruzen was concerned about these things.

"Sigh..."

Danzo heaved a heavy sigh of relief. No one knew better than him. At this time, his body had indeed recovered, but the so-called medical ninja did not completely heal him. Instead, he left something in his body.

It was to the extent that he was in a healthy state on the surface, but in reality, his life was still in the hands of others.

This was a feeling he disliked very much.

However, he had no other choice.

"Danzo, don't think about what Hiruzen said. What you need to do now is to take a good rest and recuperate." Koharu said from the side.

"Koharu, thank you for this period of time." Danzo nodded and said.

"Why are you thanking me!" As Koharu spoke, she seemed to have thought of something and her cheeks turned slightly red.

Chapter 448: Chaotic Ninja World

Anbu Dormitory.

Aoba, who was lying on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes. There was a flash of light in his eyes.

"Danzo has recovered."

Aoba had already obtained everything he had done from the canceled shadow clone.

Now, Danzo had regained his normal ability to move.

This could already help Hiruzen.

In addition, the current situation in the ninja world was chaotic.

It was enough to make the current situation complicated.

But this was exactly what he wanted.

"Let's just wait for a good show now!"

The corners of Aoba's mouth slightly curled up, revealing a meaningful smile. As for the Third Ninja World War, he no longer thought about the possible results. Instead, he just had to do what he needed to do.

Now he gradually understood why Black Zetsu only wanted to save his mother yet his plan was so detailed that he had to wait for many years.

As the saying went.

The plan did not change fast!

Black Zetsu wanted to complete the plan, but in the process of executing the plan, he encountered all kinds of changes.

It was not until he said those words to Madara, that he rescued his mother after an unknown amount of time.

Aoba also felt the same way.

After going through the layout last time, he found that the Third Raikage actually directly rushed into Konohagakure and injured Danzo. Only then did he realize that many things were full of variables, and it was almost impossible to complete this special layout through some simple information gaps without any mistakes.

It was because of the experience from last time.

Aoba understood that he didn't need to think too much about the result when setting up the plan. He just needed to do it.

The more he did...

The better the effect would be!

No matter what the result was, he can accept it. As long as he was still inside Konoha, there will be no major accidents in the village, and everything could still be under his control.

Gradually.

Aoba understands that no one can completely control such things.

All he could do was be a part of it.

The rest of the things would be left to different people.

After all, in the ninja world, these ninjas are the most essential, and these ninjas interweave this colorful world.

...

Three days later.

There was another knock on the door of Aoba's room.

"Coming."

Aoba immediately got up and walked toward the door. He also felt that there was no time left. After all, so many days had already passed. No matter how slow it was, it would not be too slow.

Creak...

After Aoba opened the door, he immediately saw Eaton standing in front of him. He saw that the latter's face was incomparably serious. That serious gaze had not even spoken yet, but it already made Aoba understand what was going on.

"Brother Eaton, what happened?" Aoba lowered his voice. Even though he already had a premonition in his heart, he did not say this out loud. Instead, he gave this opportunity to Eaton.

"Iwagakure's ninjas have invaded the Country of Fire. They are now fighting against Konoha's ninjas led by White Fang. The situation is very tense." Eaton nodded and said.

"I understand," Aoba said expressionlessly.

"I still have other things to do. That's all the information I have at the moment. I will take my leave first." Eaton took a deep look at Aoba. Aoba did not explain these things to him, but he just felt that Aoba might care a lot.

"En."

Aoba watched as Eaton left.

Recently, he had also discovered that ever since he had branded Eaton the Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal, he had become more and more professional.

Many things don't need him to say, he can do them himself.

This was already a mature Brother Eaton!

After that.

Aoba simply changed his clothes and left the Anbu dormitory. He had not gone out for a few days. Suddenly feeling the sunlight outside was a little uncomfortable and felt a little dazzling.

But almost in an instant, Aoba felt one gaze after another fall on him. These gazes were all hidden in different places. They were the group of people who had been watching him after he entered the Anbu dormitory.

However.

The difference from before was...

After these people saw Aoba, they did not follow Aoba anymore. Instead, they left one after another, as if they were waiting to confirm whether Aoba had been in the Anbu dormitory all this time.

Not long after.

The owner of the last gaze also left.

Now, there was only Aoba. He was still silently standing at the entrance of the Anbu dormitory and was slightly amazed by what had happened.

"Interesting."

Aoba whispered to himself. He had already understood that these people were following orders to monitor him. After all, he had just come back from the front line alive. They still had to see if he had any abnormal actions.

Now he had come out of the Anbu dormitory.

Not only that.

During the time he stayed in the Anbu dormitory, he had also treated Danzo's injuries as a ninja from the Uzumaki Clan.

This action completely separated him from the Uzumaki clan ninja that Hiruzen was looking for, leaving him without any suspicion.

It was precisely because of this.

These eyes staring at him left their post one after another.

"Let me sense it."

Aoba slowly closed his eyes and pointed her right index finger to her forehead. Immediately after that, the perception ability in his body was raised to the maximum. Finally, it spread out and enveloped everything.

There was no one left!

Aoba found that there was no one watching him here.

They walked away very cleanly.

Not even one remained.

"Then this is much more convenient."

Aoba's hands immediately began to form seals, and along with the circulation of chakra on his body, three shadow clones that looked exactly the same as him appeared beside him.

"You are No. 1."

"You are No. 2."

"You are No. 3."

"Start the plan now!"

Aoba said coldly. As he spoke, his right hand patted the shoulders of the three shadow clones beside him.

"Yes!"

After the three shadow clones received the corresponding number, they all understood their respective tasks. After that, they used Hiraishin no Jutsu(Flying Thunder God Technique) separately and quickly disappeared, as if they had never appeared at all.

"Hahahahaha..."

Aoba suddenly laughed. He was in a good mood now. He did not hesitate and walked toward Ramen Ichiraku.

Not long after.

Aoba arrived at Ramen Ichiraku Noodle House.

It was just as he had expected. Before the war, very few people had come to the shop to eat ramen. Now, the shop was empty. Other than Teuchi, there was no one else.

"Brother Teuchi!"

Aoba lifted the curtain and sat on the chair, greeting Teuchi with a smile.

"Aoba, you are here!"

Teuchi looked over. When he saw Aoba, he narrowed his eyes and smiled. He looked quite happy. He said, "What do you want to eat?"

"Give me a serving of ramen." Aoba casually said, "Brother Teuchi, is there anything to be happy about? I think you are in a good mood."

"Yes." Teuchi said slowly as received Aoba's order, "I received news today that the war has already started. The fight over there is quite fierce. This is a good thing!"

"Did I hear it wrong?" Aoba was stunned for a moment. He didn't understand what Teuchi meant so he asked, "Do you think that the start of the war is good news?"

"Of course, it is good news!" Teuchi nodded without hesitation. His narrowed eyes glanced at Aoba. After that, he said, "If the war does not start, it feels like there is a dark cloud above the head at all times yet it does not rain. It is a very unpleasant feeling. But once the war begins, it is like the rain has begun to fall. As long as it starts to rain, it means that the sunny day is not far away."

"This..." Aoba did not expect that Teuchi would understand it like this.

"War is the same. War has never begun. Being in a state of readiness will make everyone feel extremely tired. Now that the war has begun, it means that the end is not far away." Teuchi said with a smile.

"It doesn't seem to be a problem for you to say that." The corners of Aoba's mouth twitched slightly. He seemed to have gotten to know Teuchi once again. He could clearly remember the last time he met Teuchi. The latter had expressed his concern for the war in his room.

"After the war began, Minato should be coming back soon!" Teuchi spoke of the topic he was most concerned about. All along, he had been thinking about Minato who had left. The initial posting of this chapter occurred via N0v3l.B1(j)n.

"It should be!" Aoba nodded. He had also thought of this problem. It would depend on the timing of Minato's return. If he came back too early, it seems that it was not good if he stops Minato.

...

Sunagakure.

Swish!

A figure silently appeared outside of Kazekage's office and where he arrived, there was a black Flying Thunder God Formula.

The appearance of this person just happened to be the Third Kazekage.

However, this person was not the Third Kazekage, but Aoba's advanced paper clone.

"Now it depends on how you choose."

Aoba's advanced paper clone began to eavesdrop in Kazekage's office. He wanted to listen to the conversation inside and make a follow-up decision according to Sunagakure's decision.

...

Kumogakure.

Almost at the same time.

A figure appeared outside Raikage's office.

This person was also Aoba's advanced paper clone, but at this time, his appearance was the Third Tsuchikage Onoki.

"Third Raikage, what will you choose?"

This Aoba's advanced paper clone also began to eavesdrop on the meeting in Raikage's office.

...

At this time.

The news that Iwagakure and Konohagakure had a direct confrontation was already known throughout the ninja world.

Almost every force was having an emergency meeting.

They were discussing the follow-up decisions.

Whether it was Iwagakure or Konohagakure, they were all the Major Ninja Village of the Ninja World. After these two villages started fighting, it was the beginning of the chaos.

The other big forces were considering how to get a share in this chaotic situation.

Small powers were starting to think about which forces to ally with.

Their needs were different.

The goals of each force were also different.

...

On the other side.

Kirigakure.

A figure officially stepped into Kirigakure. The white fog around him could not hide his muscular body.

Report chapter Comments

Chapter 449: Disorder, Confusion, Upheaval

As this muscular figure walked out of Kirigakure's fog, his figure gradually became clearer. His dark skin matched his exaggerated muscles, and his entire body revealed an explosive power.

There was no one here at this moment.

If there was a ninja here, he would definitely recognize that this person was Kumogakure's Third Raikage.

Of course.

This person was not the original Third Raikage.

Instead, it was the fake Third Raikage that Aoba's advanced paper clone disguised as.

However.

Even if it was fake...

The threat that it possessed was still not to be underestimated.

The Third Raikage that Aoba's advanced paper clone had imitated walked toward Kirigakure one step at a time. He passed through the fog and appeared in this country composed of islands.

Time passes by.

According to the ninja's memories of Kirigakure, Aoba successfully found Kirigakure in the fog.

At this time.

At the entrance of Kirigakure stood two ninjas who were guarding the entrance. They all wore gas mask-like helmets on their heads, with the logo of Kirigakure ninjas on the helmets.

Aoba saw the two ninjas from afar. When he saw the two of them, he did not have any reaction. Instead, he continued to walk forward.

However.

He was thinking as he walk.

Kirigakure's ninja outfit...

It had to be said.

It seems like everyone is pretty much the same.

It was hard to tell who was who.

As Aoba got closer and closer, the Third Raikage that he had transformed into suddenly appeared in the sight of the two ninjas who were guarding the entrance.

"Someone?!"

The two ninjas saw Aoba who appeared in front of them at almost the same time. Immediately, both of them widened their eyes, and their eyes flashed with horror.

"This is..."

Before the two ninjas issue an alarm to the village, they first fixed their sights on the man walking in front of them.

He had dark skin all over his body.

His hair was slightly yellowish brown.

His muscles were incomparably muscular.

And...

There was a tattoo with the word "lightning" on his right arm.

"Kumogakure's Third Raikage?!!!"

The two ninjas blurted out at the same time. The two of them were extremely shocked at this moment. It could be said that their minds were in a mess.

"We must report this to Mizukage-sama immediately!"

The two of Kirigakure's ninjas looked at each other and could see the shock in each other's eyes. This was not a simple matter. Kumogakure's Third Raikage had personally come to this place. If they were not careful, it would be a fatal blow to Kirigakure.

However.

The moment the two of them finished speaking.

The Third Raikage that Aoba had transformed into had already appeared in front of the two of them.

"It's too late."

Aoba said coldly in an indifferent tone. As he spoke, he used a hand knife at the two ninjas' necks.

Thud! Thud!

Accompanied by the sound of the two bodies falling to the ground.

The two ninjas fell one by one and were instantly knocked unconscious by a powerful force.

Aoba was only here to cause trouble.

He was not here to kill.

Although killing a few people could achieve some results sometimes, if was not necessary he was not willing to kill. He still had to meet his bottom line in some specific circumstances.

After Aoba knocked out the two ninjas guarding the entrance, he directly stepped into Kirigakure.

He had just walked in a few steps.

He was once again discovered by Kirigakure's ninjas.

"There is an enemy attack!"

The ninjas immediately shouted. They were currently at war with Kumogakure, how could they not recognize the Kumogakure logo on the Third Raikage?

What's more...

As Kirigakure's ninjas.

Who could not recognize the Third Raikage?

"Oh my god! Am I seeing things?"

"He's the Third Raikage!"

"The Raikage has come himself?"

"Something big is going to happen!"

"How should we deal with this?"

"We have already informed Mizukage-sama!"

"..."

The Kirigakure's ninjas stared cautiously at Aoba, who had become the Third Raikage. They had never faced such a scene before. Even the experience ninjas had never experienced such a scene.

Looking at the entire ninja world.

Other than Kumogakure.

The Kirigakure's ninja knew the Third Raikage's strength the best!

Because of this.

All the eyes of the ninja present were focused on Aoba, and their eyes were full of caution. However, no one dared to fight directly with Aoba, they just kept retreating along with Aoba.

"Where is your Mizukage?"

Aoba said in a low voice as he walked. He felt that the atmosphere was almost right, so he immediately mobilized the chakra in his body and changed it into lightning attribute chakra to use Raiton Chakura Mōdo(Lightning Release Chakra Mode).

Zap Zap Zap Zap...

Aoba's body was immediately surrounded by the noisy lightning sound. He seemed to be wearing lightning armor. The lightning that constantly emitted from his body was particularly dazzling in the fog. This made him like a bright lamp in the fog, making it impossible for people to not see him.

"Hiss..."

When the ninjas saw Aoba used Raiton Chakura Mōdo(Lightning Release Chakra Mode), they no longer had doubt in their hearts. They were even more sure that the muscular man in front of them was Kumogakure's Third Raikage. They could not help but suck in a mouthful of fog.

Swish!

In an instant.

A figure suddenly appeared.

It was a black-haired man dressed in ordinary light gray clothes. The man had very long hair, falling down his shoulders. Moreover, his eyes were closed, and there was no fluctuation of expression on his face.

"Raikage, you actually dare to come to Kirigakure. You don't take our Kirigakure seriously!"

The man said slowly. His tone was very gentle, and it sounded like he was a very polite person. In such a polite tone, he said a very angry word.

"You can understand it like this."

Aoba nodded directly. He came here to cause trouble. He wanted to make the situation even more chaotic. He absolutely could not let the matter pass so easily.

"I really don't take Kirigakure seriously!"

...

Sunagakure.

In Kazekage's office.

The Third Kazekage was discussing with Sunagakure's consultants, Chiyo and Ebizo.

"I am very supportive of attacking Konohagakure!"

Chiyo did not hesitate to express her own opinion. Now they were analyzing the matter that Onoki had found them so as to make the most beneficial choice for their village.

"But isn't this a bit too smooth?" The Third Kazekage said worriedly. He felt that this was a bit shameful.

"I also feel that this is the best decision." Ebizo followed suit and nodded.

"What do you mean?" The Third Kazekage immediately asked.

"Let my sister tell." Ebizo raised his eyebrows. He decided to leave this opportunity for his elder sister to express her views.

"Let me speak!"

Chiyo took over Ebizo's words, and all eyes in the meeting room fell on her, including the Third Kazekage.

"I support attacking Konohagakure mainly for the following reasons. After listening to me, you can think whether it makes sense to do so."

When Chiyo said this, the meeting room was silent. Everyone was waiting for her to say the next words.

"First, Kazekage-sama attacked Konohagakure not long ago. This has already set the foundation for the conflict between us and Konohagakure. Moreover, in the Second Ninja World War, there is too much pain between us and Konohagakure."

After Chiyo finished speaking, her tone paused.

She did not speak too clearly.

But everyone here knew.

The pain she spoke of included her son and daughter-in-law who were killed by Konoha White Fang.

Because of this.

As long as the discussion was related to Konohagakure.

Chiyo's views were always very extreme.

"Second, there is no enmity between us, Sunagakure and Iwagakure. Even if we don't deal with Konohagakure, there has already been a rift between us and Konohagakure. If we let Konohagakure off and caused a rift to appear between us and Iwagakure, then it is definitely the most failed method."

When Chiyo spoke of this point, many people in the meeting room began to nod slowly.

It was indeed the truth.

They were not fools, and they understood immediately.

The rift with Konohagakure was already set, instead of spending time maintaining it, it was best to shred it directly.

After all, maintaining it might not be good.

But Iwagakure's side would definitely be torn apart.

This would easily put them in a very embarrassing situation and be attacked from both sides.

"Third, the fact that Tsuchikage was able to come here to find Kazekage-sama showed that he was very confident in his own strength. He was not worried that we would launch a sneak attack. Since that was the case, then we should target the defenseless Konohagakure. This way, our success rate would be higher and we would be able to gain a lot of benefits during this process."

The more Chiyo spoke, the more people nodded.

In the end.

The Third Kazekage also began to nod.

"Let's do this."

The Third Kazekage slammed the table and stood up. After that, he said in an unquestionable tone, "Gather the ninja army and wait for orders. Get ready to enter the Country of Fire and attack Konohagakure."

"Yes!"

Now that everyone realized that the Third Kazekage had already made the decision, any suggestions would be unnecessary. All they could do now was follow their Kazekage's instructions and begin to prepare for war.

Outside Kazekage's office.

Aoba's advanced paper clone, who had already turned into the Third Kazekage, heard everything clearly.

"You chose Konohagakure."

"Then I will choose the other side for you!"

"This is interesting!"

After Aoba's advanced paper clone finished his last sentence, his figure disappeared in a flash.

The next moment.

His body appeared near Iwagakure. This chapter made its debut appearance via N0v3lB1n.

He was shadow clone No. 1, and the task he had to do was to determine which side Sunagakure would attack.

If Sunagakure attacked Konohagakure, then he would attack Iwagakure.

If Sunagakure attacked Iwagakure, then he would attack Konohagakure.

If Sunagakure did not make any choice, then he would use clones again and attack both Konohagakure and Iwagakure.

In short...

Sunagakure being attacked from both sides could not be avoided.

Aoba's advanced paper clone immediately made a series of hand seals for Taju Kage Bunshin no Jutsu(Multiple Shadow Clone Technique). After that, he released a chakra fluctuation, and hundreds of shadow clones appeared on the spot.

After these shadow clones appeared, each person immediately took out a scroll.

"Let's begin!"

"Let the ninja world become even more chaotic!"

"My puppet army!"

As soon as the voice of Aoba's advanced paper clone fell, the hundreds of shadow clones at the scene simultaneously summoned their puppets. Moreover, the ten fingers of their hands condensed the chakra line and connect it with the puppets.

"Go!"

Aoba lightly spat out these two words, and suddenly, numerous densely packed puppets began to attack Iwagakure, just like a puppet army.

Outside Kazekage's office.

Aoba's advanced paper clone, who had already turned into the Third Kazekage, heard everything clearly.

"You chose Konohagakure."

"Then I will choose the other side for you!"

"This is interesting!"

After Aoba's advanced paper clone finished his last sentence, his figure disappeared in a flash.

The next moment.

His body appeared near Iwagakure. This chapter made its debut appearance via N0v3lB1n.

He was shadow clone No. 1, and the task he had to do was to determine which side Sunagakure would attack.

If Sunagakure attacked Konohagakure, then he would attack Iwagakure.

If Sunagakure attacked Iwagakure, then he would attack Konohagakure.

If Sunagakure did not make any choice, then he would use clones again and attack both Konohagakure and Iwagakure.

In short...

Sunagakure being attacked from both sides could not be avoided.

Aoba's advanced paper clone immediately made a series of hand seals for Taju Kage Bunshin no Jutsu(Multiple Shadow Clone Technique). After that, he released a chakra fluctuation, and hundreds of shadow clones appeared on the spot.

After these shadow clones appeared, each person immediately took out a scroll.

"Let's begin!"

"Let the ninja world become even more chaotic!"

"My puppet army!"

As soon as the voice of Aoba's advanced paper clone fell, the hundreds of shadow clones at the scene simultaneously summoned their puppets. Moreover, the ten fingers of their hands condensed the chakra line and connect it with the puppets.

"Go!"

Aoba lightly spat out these two words, and suddenly, numerous densely packed puppets began to attack Iwagakure, just like a puppet army.

Chapter 450: Black Zetsu's Doubts

After Aoba's advanced paper clone arrived at Iwagakure, he immediately turned into countless Sunagakure ninjas, and all of them were puppet masters.

He had been studying puppet techniques for a period of time.

Although he wasn't proficient in it, he was still able to make a move.

The most important thing was...

He had a lot of people!

Thousands of shadow clones stood a distance away from Iwagakure, constantly operating the puppet technique. Through this method, the puppets could quickly attack Iwagakure.

Of course.

Aoba's goal was not to win this war.

Instead, it was to disrupt this war.

Compared to the other puppet masters, Aoba had a very obvious difference. The other puppet masters did not have much strength. Most of them used the technique of controlling puppets and stronger puppets. It could be said that puppets were greater than the puppet masters, but Aoba was the complete opposite.

If Aoba does not use puppets...

Over a thousand shadow clones were more than enough to flatten Iwagakure.

This was definitely a battle power of different levels!

In an instant.

The densely packed puppets pressed down on Iwagakure like a swarm of locusts, overwhelming the sky and covering the earth as they attacked.

Iwagakure.

Iwagakure's ninjas immediately saw this scene. Almost everyone was shocked by this.

"What are these things?"

"Puppets?"

"Aren't puppets Sunagakure's exclusive techniques?"

"Did Sunagakure attack us?"

"Damn it!"

"Didn't Sunagakure say that they wanted to join forces with us?"

"They are liars!"

"..."

Iwagakure's people stared at the puppets that were charging in, and their voices rose as they expressed their dissatisfaction.

"Damn it!"

When the ninjas in the village saw this scene, they immediately went forward to meet the enemy, protecting the villagers behind them. Each of their faces was extremely solemn.

Right now, they were in a state of lacking in combat power.

More than two-thirds of the ninjas had already been sent to the frontline, and those people were all elites with strong fighting strength.

The fighting strength of the ninjas that stayed here was generally not that strong, so when they faced those densely packed puppets, the whole group felt rather apprehensive and not knowing how to face such a strong enemy.

"Go find Tsuchikage-sama!"

Following the orders of some ninja captain, almost all the ninjas quickly ran in the direction of Tsuchikage's Building.

Only.

At a time like this.

There was no need for them to report this.

Onoki had already seen the scene through the window of Tsuchikage's office. He knew that Sunagakure's ninjas had already attacked, and his face was already covered with black lines.

"Third, Ka, Ze, Ka, Ge!"

Onoki said word by word. His words were almost said through gritted teeth, and now the anger in his heart had reached a limit.

Not long ago.

The Third Kazekage came to his Tsuchikage's office. Of course, it was not the real Third Kazekage, but Aoba's advanced paper clone who used the transformation technique. This Third Kazekage had just dealt with him.

They had clearly agreed to attack Konohagakure together.

He hadn't sent the ninjas out for long!

Sunagakure's ninjas attacked.

This was definitely intentional!

Onoki thought this way. He felt that the Third Kazekage did this on purpose. These two times, the timing was right. It was completely at the time when Iwagakure was in an embarrassing situation.

"You, Are, Too, Much!" The first reveal of this chapter happened through n(0)vel(b)(j)(n).

Onoki's anger became more and more intense. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the matter was extremely strange. After all, if Sunagakure's ninjas want to come here, they needed a period of time with such distance. It was impossible to appear in front of them immediately.

Either when Iwagakure's ninjas came out of the village, Sunagakure's ninja left their village at the same time as them.

Or...

Sunagakure's ninja was the first to leave the village!

No matter which one it was.

For Onoki, this was an unforgivable thing!

"Did you come to play with me that day?"

Onoki stared at the puppets rushing into the village through the window, and then he thought of when the Third Kazekage had just come.

If the Third Kazekage had never been here and Sunagakure directly launched a sneak attack.

He would be angry.

However, it would definitely not be this kind of feeling. Instead, he would directly deal with such an unexpected situation. Now, it was a completely different matter.

The Third Kazekage first ran over and said a lot of things.

In the end, when he was caught off guard, the other party led a large group of Sunagakure ninjas to attack. This was simply looking down on him.

He couldn't bear it at all!

In a split second.

There was a loud explosion.

Onoki directly broke out of the window and floated in the air. He glare at the puppets who had entered Iwagakure, he was already ready to fight.

...

Sunagakure.

After Aoba's shadow clone left.

Another shadow clone came here.

These shadow clones each carried different tasks. When Aoba used shadow clone, he had already arranged the overall plan. This was the experience that Aoba had come up with after using the shadow clone again and again.

After the number of shadow clones increased.

Many things would become chaotic.

If he arranged the plan beforehand, then the shadow clone could carry out the plan in an orderly manner, and finally, perfectly present the design plan.

"Now, it's my turn."

The shadow clone immediately began to form seals with both hands. He was also going to use Taju Kage Bunshin no Jutsu(Multiple Shadow Clone Technique), and several hundred identical people immediately appeared on the ground.

Plip Plip Plip...

After these shadow clones appeared, the pieces of paper on their bodies flew up, causing their faces to change, changing into different appearances.

A moment later.

The clothes of these shadow clones all changed into ninja clothes with red and brown colors. Moreover, they were all wearing Iwagakure's ninja forehead protectors.

"According to the plan..."

"Whether Sunagakure will be going to deal with Konohagakure or Iwagakure..."

"Or does not move at all..."

"I will become Iwagakure's ninja..."

"And launch an attack on Sunagakure!"

Aoba's advanced paper clone silently muttered to himself. Right now, all the shadow clones here were carrying out the same plan. After that, they quickly rushed toward Sunagakure.

Soon.

The fake Iwagakure ninjas appeared in the sight of Sunagakure's sentry post.

It was not difficult to find them.

Aoba's shadow clone did not hide at all, so many of them suddenly appeared in the desert.

"There's a situation!"

A ninja on Sunagakure's wall stared at the scene in front of him with a binocular and immediately shouted.

At this moment.

This ninja was so nervous that his hand holding the binocular was trembling.

It had to be known that this was a very dangerous juncture. Sunagakure's ninjas had just been sent out to attack Konohagakure. It was the time when the village was empty yet Iwagakure's ninjas had arrived.

This timing could be said to have grabbed their throats.

This caused them to fall into an extremely passive situation.

"Quickly go and report to Kazekage-sama!"

The ninja holding the binoculars roared at the ninja beside him. His eyes were bloodshot, fully demonstrating his anxiety, "Hurry up and tell Kazekage-sama that Iwagakure's ninjas are here!"

"Yes!"

This Sunagakure ninja immediately responded. After that, his figure disappeared in a flash, and he quickly run to Kazekage's Building.

In Kazekage's office.

Not long after Sunagakure sent out a ninja army, the ninja leading the group was Chiyo, who volunteered herself. After all, Chiyo still had a lot of hatred for Konohagakure and wanted to settle it.

"Report..."

All of a sudden.

An anxious voice rang out.

"What's the big deal?"

The Third Kazekage looked in the direction of the door, his eyes focused on the ninja who ran over to report. His eyes flashed with doubt, but his heart was faintly uneasy, feeling that something was wrong.

"Iwagakure's ninjas is coming!" The ninja reported.

"How unreasonable!"

When the Third Kazekage heard this person's words, he instantly smashed the table beside him in a fit of rage, and his expression turned extremely ugly.

"Iwagakure is really going too far!"

The Third Kazekage immediately stood up and walked out of the office. He wanted to personally go and take a look, and end this matter. The moment he heard the report, he was already mentally prepared to fight with Iwagakure.

...

Country of Earth, Kannabi Bridge, a dark cave.

A white-haired, skinny old man sat on a chair. His back was filled with tubes. His aura was very weak as if he could die at any time. However, there was still such a breath hanging.

"What's the situation outside?"

The old man asked in a low voice. There was no feeling of dying in his voice. Instead, it revealed a domineering feeling that everything was under his control.

"The Third Ninja World War has been lukewarm. It hasn't officially erupted, and it hasn't completely ended yet. It seems like waiting for an opportunity. However, the person you like is still as kind as ever." A pale person replied. This person was White Zetsu.

"The ninja world is just a bit chaotic. I went out a few times, but I didn't get a clear look." The person who spoke was the spiral-faced Tobi.

"Keep an eye on him. When that guy Obito steps into the battlefield, our plan can begin." Madara said in a deep voice.

"Yes." White Zetsu nodded and added, "The other candidate has already entered the battlefield, but the person who can make him feel negative is not there. What are we going to do?"

"Fugaku is not determined enough. Even if we kill Mikoto, it will be useless. That guy has already opened his Mangekyo Sharingan. There is no need to use him anymore. There is no need to care about him at all." Madara coldly said.

"Understood." White Zetsu replied.

...

In the depths of the entire place.

On a black stone.

A black head quietly popped out.

This person was Black Zetsu.

At this time, Black Zetsu hadn't officially come to the scene, and even Madara didn't know his existence. He was just designing silently behind the scenes.

"Strange..."

Black Zetsu's eyes flashed with strong doubt. He was very confused about the current situation.

"It's just a Ninja World War."

"Why is it so complicated this time?"

"I feel like there's a pair of invisible hands controlling the situation here."

"No!"

"I have to go out and take a look."

"The variables are too big now."

Black Zetsu immediately made up his mind. He had been following Madara all this time and was afraid that something wrong would happen to Madara. Now that Madara had stabilized and even found a candidate. However, the ninja world seemed to have changed.
