CH 124

After Aoba returned to Konohagakure Intelligence Division’s black room, he returned to his usual working pace.

Not long after he arrived in his place.

A suspect who was waiting to be interrogated was sent over.

The guards were no longer so enthusiastic about him.

The main reason was that the speed of his interrogation had decreased, and he was no longer as efficient as before. Over time, he was no longer so valued.

Aoba completely saw this change.

He did not care at all.

But it did not stop him from lamenting the reality of society.

Even the Konohagakure Intelligence Division compartment has darkness, which was not surprising.

At this moment, Aoba looked at the suspect tied to the wooden pillar through the peephole of the cat’s face mask.

“You… wait.”

Aoba said lightly. After that, he took out a small stool and sat directly in front of the suspect, who was waiting to be interrogated. He closed his eyes and began to read Sakumo’s memories.

He has already decided.

In the future, one person at a time will be interrogated for each mission he watches.

He would prioritize watching Sakumo’s mission.

After looking at all the missions Sakumo performed in the memory and then looking at them again, he was bound to understand the essence of it all.

Aoba had a faint feeling.

When he understood all the experience in Sakumo’s memory, even if he had never gone out to carry out missions, he would still have rich experience.

This greatly made up for his lack of experience in the Konohagakure Intelligence Division!

Of course.

Aoba was not in a hurry.

Take it slow.

He had plenty of time.

He did not plan any goals that he wanted to complete within the time limit.

Just take it slow.

In any case, whether it was the Third Ninja World War or the Fourth Ninja World War, he did not intend to participate.

There was no need to raise his strength to a certain level before the war.

Slowly.

Aoba’s attention was focused on Sakumo’s memories, and he began to immerse himself in this exciting mission.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Aoba stood in Sakumo’s first-person perspective and ran through the woods, quickly passing by tree branches.

Behind him were three Konoha Ninjas, forming Hatake Sakumo’s ninja team.

This feeling was genuine, giving him the feeling of watching a VR movie.

And it was the kind of theater version!

The sense of immersion was directly filled.

Gradually.

Aoba was completely immersed in it.

He had already forgotten the passage of time…

The suspect, tied to the wooden pillar, was completely dumbfounded. He had never seen such lazy Konohagakure Intelligence Division members.

As a little thief.

It was not the first time he had come to the Konohagakure Intelligence Division compartment. He was a repeat offender.

Here.

He was familiar!

This made him not feel timid in front of interrogation.

But he never thought.

This person in charge of interrogating him actually ignored him. He had never seen a ninja like this before.

“Hey…”

This little thief was a little bored. He opened his mouth and shouted at Aoba, wanting to wake him up from his “sleep”.

However.

Aoba did not have any reaction.

At this moment.

Aoba was completely immersed in Sakumo’s mission and could not hear the voices around him.

“Boring!”

Seeing that Aoba was ignoring him, the little thief did not speak again. He could only look at the compartment, not knowing how to get rid of this free time.

…

At the same time.

In Konohagakure Intelligence Division’s black room.

Eaton’s face was solemn as he welcomed a big shot who had never been to Konohagakure Intelligence Division.

This made Eaton become respectful and nervous.

Step, step, step…

Along with a series of footsteps, a woman with an impressive figure walked in and appeared in front of everyone, making everyone present not dare to make a sound.

“Tsunade-sama!”

Eaton immediately bowed to Tsunade. Although Tsunade didn’t have any position in Konoha and was only a Jonin Ninja, no one dared to treat her as an ordinary Jonin Ninja.

This was one of the legendary Konoha Sannin!

The granddaughter of the First Hokage Senju Hashirama!

The Konoha’s Slug Princess was the best in the world of medical ninjutsu!

These titles were like halos, and Eaton did not dare to neglect them.

“You are the Konohagakure Intelligence Division Captain, Morino Eaton?” Tsunade’s eyes fell on Eaton.

“Yes!” Eaton immediately responded and asked, “What instructions does Tsunade-sama have?”

“I’m looking for someone. Is it convenient for you, Konohagakure Intelligence Division’s people?” Tsunade spoke slowly, but there was an unquestionable dignity, making everyone who heard it feel great pressure.

“Who?” Eaton immediately asked.

“En…”

Tsunade looked around, and her eyes swept over the Anbu Ninjas wearing masks. She seemed to think that these people were in the way of her actions.

“All of you can leave now!” Eaton immediately understood what Tsunade meant and ordered them to leave.

“Yes!”

Everyone immediately responded, and then their figures flashed and disappeared.

At this point.

In Konohagakure Intelligence Division’s black room.

Only Tsunade and Eaton were left.

This made Eaton even more nervous. His whole body was completely tense; even his throat was a little hoarse and dry.

“Tsunade-sama, is it okay now?”

Eaton asked respectfully. He was just a small Konohagakure Intelligence Division Captain. As long as it was not a particularly serious matter, he would definitely not provoke an existence like Tsunade.

“Yes.”

Tsunade nodded, and the expression on her face eased. She seemed to be very satisfied with Eaton’s actions.

“Your Konohagakure Intelligence Division has a ninja named Yamanaka Aoba. Do you have an impression of this person?” Tsunade asked directly.

“Yamanaka Aoba!” Eaton was surprised. He did not expect that the person Tsunade was looking for was actually the seemingly unremarkable Aoba.

“That’s right, take me to him.” Tsunade nodded.

“Yes… yes…” Eaton could not believe his ears, but he did not hesitate at all. He immediately led Tsunade towards Aoba’s compartment.

During this process.

Eaton had been guessing the relationship between Tsunade and Aoba.

But no matter how he thought about it, he did not believe that there would be any relationship.

Logically…

These two people couldn’t know each other!

There would be no intersection.

Why would Tsunade personally come to Konohagakure Intelligence Division to find Aoba?

Eaton could not think of an answer, no matter how he felt about it. He only dared to think about it in his heart and did not dare to ask Tsunade.

…

Aoba’s compartment.

Aoba slowly opened his eyes.

“Sigh…”

Immediately after.

Aoba let out a long sigh of relief.

He had just watched a B-rank mission executed by Sakumo, and the opponent was a ninja from Iwagakure.

The entire process went from the design plan to the successful completion of the mission. It was clean and efficient, with a clear train of thought, comparable to the efficiency of the textbook level of mission execution.

This was definitely a mission worth watching again.

Unfortunately…

The technology of the ninja world was not so advanced. There was no way to record the entire process.

As a result, there was no way to transmit such experience.

Even if Sakumo personally guided Kakashi, there was no way to teach him all the experience, let alone some details.

After Aoba finished looking at the mission.

He immediately understood why ninjas had to carry out all kinds of missions after graduating from the Ninja School.

These missions were the process of accumulating experience.

No one could pass on their experience to others. Everyone needed to accumulate their own experience.

“It’s your turn now.”

Aoba’s gaze turned to the tied-up suspect.

After watching a mission.

It was about time.

It was time to change people.

Aoba walked toward the suspect step by step. This sudden change stunned the suspect.

“Wait… I am not ready yet!” The little thief was about to fall asleep from waiting. He was shocked by Aoba’s action and could not react instantly.

However.

Aoba ignored the little thief’s request.

He walked directly to the little thief.

He raised his hand and touched the little thief’s head.

“Ding Dong! Memory Reading Succesful! Obtained, Chakra Increase!”

A crisp electronic prompt sounded in Aoba’s mind, and then a familiar feeling emerged from his body. A faint warm current flowed into his limbs and bones, making his chakra become even stronger.

At the same time.

The memory of this little thief was added to Aoba’s mind.

Step, step, step, step…

Just as Aoba was about to flip through the memory of this little thief, footsteps sounded outside his compartment.

Bang!

The compartment’s door was suddenly pulled open.

Eaton’s face was reflected in Aoba’s line of sight from the darkness.

This sudden scene.

Even Aoba did not understand.

“Captain Eaton?”

A big question mark popped up in Aoba’s head.

He had just met Eaton.

There should be nothing to say.

Moreover, Eaton had never come in person since he came to this compartment.

“Why are you here?” Aoba immediately asked.

“Aoba, come out for a moment. Someone is looking for you.” Eaton said in a low voice.

“Someone is looking for me?”

Aoba frowned slightly behind the mask. The only people who had a good relationship with him were Teuchi and Minato.

Teuchi had no way to leave the shop.

Then…

It was Minato!

Aoba instantly made a judgment in his heart, but he did not know why Minato was looking for him.

“Okay.”

Aoba responded and immediately walked out of the compartment.

Just as he stepped out of the door and looked for Minato, his eyes focused on a graceful and proud figure.

In a split second.

Aoba’s pupils shrank.

He knew this person.

Tsunade!

Aoba immediately had an ominous feeling in his heart. He was like a frightened cat, instantly becoming alert.

Normally speaking.

Tsunade would never know of his existence.

And there was no reason for her to come to him.

They were completely unfamiliar with each other and could even be said to be strangers.

Then…

Now that Tsunade was here.

Aoba could think of the only explanation that what happened that night was detected by Tsunade.

All of a sudden.

There were many thoughts in Aoba’s mind, and his brain was working quickly.

He lowered his head slightly.

Tsunade could not see the change in his eyes.

Only…

No matter how much Aoba paid attention, the change in his eyes just now was seen by Tsunade, who was focusing her attention on him.

“Yamanaka Aoba, hello. I heard Minato say that you are his good friend!”

Tsunade revealed a meaningful smile on her face, her eyes staring at Aoba.

“Jiraya is also my good friend. You should know that.”

“Then…”

“I came to ask you this time.”

“Are you interested in being my student?”
