CH 139

Aoba came to Konohagakure Intelligence Division’s black room with ease.

At this moment.

In Konohagakure Intelligence Division’s black room, he heard a whipping sound of a whip.

It sounded louder and louder.

It sounded terrifying.

Aoba stood outside the black room and did not directly enter. He knew that Eaton was inside.

This black room was Eaton’s exclusive interrogation place.

With the sound, one could basically determine that he was here.

When Aoba was waiting outside the door, his mind was constantly thinking about the Sage Mode. He was very clear about the Sage Mode’s power.

It was an improvement that could bring a qualitative change.

After Naruto learned the Sage mode, he could directly return to the village to battle with Pain, and he was not at a disadvantage at all.

After learning the Sage Mode, the Sage of the Six Path could directly use Senjutsu to fight his mother and also stabbed his brother in the heart.

No matter what…

Even though he already had Sage Body, the Sage Mode would still bring about a significant improvement.

Moreover.

Sage Body was more compatible with the Sage Mode to a certain extent.

It would be easier to learn.

The only problem now was…

Aoba had no idea how to start!

Even if it were self-study.

There must be some basis to it!

The only thing he knew was absorbing natural energy and then maintaining the natural energy balance or something…

A little carelessness might result in him being crippled!

Aoba did not want to take the risk.

“If I learned Kuchiyose no Jutsu(Summoning Technique) from Tsunade-sensei and established a contract with Katsuya in the Shikkotsu Forest, what a pity…

Aoba shook his head and muttered in his heart.

He had already obtained the method to use the Summoning Technique from Tsunade’s memories.

However, he did not yet establish a contract with Katsuya.

Even if he emptied his blood on the ground, he would not be able to channel it.

Unless…

He would personally run to the Shikkotsu Forest!

This was the worst way for Aoba. Only when he must practice the Sage Mode would he travel long distances; otherwise, he will not bother to go.

Currently, he has enough abilities.

Take it slow.

He had plenty of time.

He would master everything.

There was another plan in Aoba’s mind, and that was Jiraya. He didn’t know when he had come into contact with the Sage Mode.

If he read Jiraya’s memories now, and if Jiraya didn’t yet start to train Sage Mode, then he would waste his opportunity.

He could wait.

And when it was time.

He directly got the method to use Sage Mode training from Jiraiya memory.

Then, he would use Tajū Kage Bunshin no Jutsu(Multiple Shadow Clone Technique)’s BUG-like methods to quickly master Sage Mode.

For a moment.

Aoba thought about many things.

It was as if he was thinking about how to spend a million. He was very intoxicated. The more he thought about it, the more he realized that there was no such thing.

Another period of time passed.

The sounds of whipping in the black room stopped.

The black room door opened.

Eaton, who was wearing a black trench coat, cursed as he walked out of the black room. His expression was extremely ugly, and his eyes flickered with coldness.

“His bones are quite hard!”

Eaton said with a sneer. He had already decided to find someone to read this person’s memories. He had to make this guy spit out something.

“Captain Eaton!”

When Aoba saw Eaton, he immediately greeted him.

Following this voice.

Eaton looked in Aoba’s direction. His gaze swept over Aoba’s cat-faced mask and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

“Aoba?”

Eaton was a little uncertain. He knew that Tsunade had already left Konohagakure, but he did not go to see her at that time. He thought that Aoba had left with Tsunade.

“Yes, it’s me.” Aoba nodded.

“You’re back?”

Eaton’s face revealed a happy expression, but he still restrained himself a little. After all, he had not received Aoba’s exact answer yet. If he wanted to resign, then it would be awkward.

“En, I’m back. Thank you for giving me a holiday.” Aoba nodded again.

“Good! Good! Good! Great! It’s great that you can come back!”

Eaton’s eyes shone, and his heart surged with uncontrollable joy. The fact that Aoba could return to Konohagakure Intelligence Division was great news for him and Konohagakure Intelligence Division.

One had to know.

Aoba was Tsunade’s student!

Of course.

This was a secret that only he knew!

But it was precisely because he was the only one who knew that he could use it as a trump card!

This was his trump card!

It was also Konohagakure Intelligence Division’s trump card!

As long as Aoba was in Konohagakure Intelligence Division, then Eaton would be even more confident.

“Aoba, I will immediately write a report and promote you to Konohagakure Intelligence Division’s vice-captain!” Eaton hurriedly said. He was afraid that Aoba would not be able to live comfortably. If he left, the gains would not make up for the losses.

“No, no need…”

Aoba waved his hand and looked around. After making sure that no one could hear him, he walked up to Eaton and lowered his voice, “Captain Eaton, I am just an ordinary subordinate of Konohagakure Intelligence Division. There is no need for me to change my position. I am very happy with my position in Konohagakure Intelligence Division now, so I should keep a low profile.”

“Good! Good! Good! I will listen to you! You can do whatever you want!”

Eaton nodded. There was no one else here. If someone saw this, they would think that Aoba was Konohagakure Intelligence Division Captain.

“Captain Eaton, what’s going on inside?” Aoba asked directly. Now that Eaton could be considered to be someone who knew some of his little secrets, he could let go of it a little more appropriately. There was no need to be so reserved.

“This is a Kumogakure spy that the village sentry caught. When they captured him, he studied something in the western village barrier. I didn’t expect his mouth to be so tight, and he actually didn’t say anything. I plan to find newcomers to read his memories.” Eaton immediately said as if he was reporting to his superiors. There was no need to hide anything.

“Let me do it.” Aoba volunteered. It had been a while since he had read the memories of spies from other villages. He also wanted to know more information about other villages.

“Don’t, don’t, don’t. Aoba, your health is not very good. Reading memories is too taxing on your body. Let the newcomers come. Half a month ago, more than a dozen newcomers entered Konohagakure Intelligence Division. This kind of thing was very harmful to the brain. It was better to leave it to them to do it.” Eaton waved his hand repeatedly. How could he dare to let Aoba do such a thing? He was Tsunade’s student.

“I’m familiar with this. Newbies don’t have this kind of experience,” Aoba said again.

He now completely understands why he was directly carried over to read memory continuously when he just crossed over.

Not only that.

At that time, Eaton was still fooling him.

If he had not been very cautious, he would have almost been fooled successfully and thought that he had received a lot of attention.

According to Eaton’s performance and memory, he knew Eaton’s routine. He used those words to inject chicken blood into newcomers so that they could read memories with all their strength.

It’s just…

It was unknown how many of the newcomers did not survive when they were reading memories.

They died on this dark battlefield of the Konohagakure Intelligence Division.

“This…”

When Eaton saw that Aoba was so persistent, he did not know what to say. He could not stop him now, nor could he order him.

“Hehehe, Captain Eaton, I’m just bored. I haven’t read memories for a long time. Let me try.” Aoba said with a smile. After that, he did not wait for Eaton’s consent and directly walked into the black room.

“Alright… alright…”

Eaton nodded helplessly. He did not dare to go against Aoba’s thoughts too much.

Since that day when he knew that Aoba had become Tsunade’s student, his respect for Aoba instantly soared to another level.

As long as it was not a matter of principle.

As long as Aoba requests something, he will never make things difficult for Aoba.

Now, it was just a matter of reading memories.

It wasn’t a big problem.

As Konohagakure Intelligence Division Captain, Eaton had come from the newcomers and was now sitting in Konohagakure Intelligence Division’s highest position.

For Konohagakure Intelligence Division operation mode, he was very experienced and had a say in it.

In his opinion.

Konohagakure Intelligence Division was a battlefield without smoke!

It was an extremely cruel place.

Not only did he need strength, but he also needed qualifications!

This was the same principle on the battlefield.

The vanguard soldiers who were at the front most likely to die were mostly newcomers.

These people did not have experience or battle achievements.

They were like duckweeds drifting in the wind in troubled times, becoming the cannon fodder in the battle.

But…

If a newcomer came out of these cannon fodder bathed in blood, they would gain experience.

With experience and achievements, they would gradually become the backbone, and some would even become commanders.

This was the same principle as Konohagakure Intelligence Division.

Reading memories consumes a great deal of mental strength and would also damage the brain, causing a significant impact on the health of the body.

When he had a certain status in Konohagakure Intelligence Division.

He did not need to read some of the ordinary memories and just handed them to the newcomers.

Just like how the commanders on the battlefield did not need to rush to the front to be cannon fodder.

Only when the newcomers could not handle such an important event would they take the initiative to read memories, just like what Yuta had done.

Only…

In Eaton’s opinion.

This Kumogakure spy who was caught was at best a Chunin or even a Genin.

A newcomer was enough to deal with it.

There was no need for Aoba to make a move personally…

Of course.

There was another point.

The reason why Eaton was polite to Aoba now was not that Aoba possessed great strength but because of Aoba’s teacher, Tsunade.

In other words.

This was also something he did not dare to say…

In his eyes.

If it were just based on strength.

With Aoba’s physical fitness, when it comes to using Yamanaka clan mind-reading secret technique…

He might not even be as nimble as a newcomer!

Eaton would never say such words that would not benefit him and even offend someone. He was not a fool, and it was not too late to curry favor with Aoba now.

Instantly.

Eaton followed behind Aoba and walked into the black room.

…

At this time.

Aoba was standing in Konohagakure Intelligence Division’s black room.

Not far away in front of him, there was a Kumo ninja whose entire body had been whipped to the point that he could see his flesh.

The surroundings were filled with a thick and pungent smell of blood.

This feeling.

In an instant, it brought him back to the time when he had just transmigrated.

It had only been a short year.

He was no longer the Aoba who had forced himself to read memories.

“Leave this person to me.”

Aoba took a step forward and walked towards the half-unconscious Kumo Ninja.

When he walked in front of this Kumo Ninja, he felt a chill run down his spine.

He raised his right hand.

He grabbed this ninja’s head.

He made a very handsome pose.

Hum!

At the same time.

Aoba instantly condensed a strand of chakra in his right hand and directly rushed toward the mind of this ninja.

It was the secret technique of the Yamanaka clan.

“This… this…”

When Eaton saw this scene, his eyes immediately widened, and his eyes flickered with disbelief.

Aoba had changed!

He had become stronger and more confident!

This was completely different from the Aoba he had known in the past!

As expected of Tsunade-sama!

In just a month or so of training, Aoba had undergone a qualitative change!

Eaton was certain that Aoba’s physical fitness had improved, and his every move exuded a sense of confidence.

That’s right!

It was definitely Tsunade-sama’s credit!

Eaton was shocked in his heart. The way he looked at Aoba became even more different, and he paid more attention to Aoba.

Just now.

In his heart, he was still thinking…

Aoba did not go out with Tsunade-sama. Was it because Tsunade-sama did not take a fancy to Aoba’s talent?

Now he knew that he was wrong.

What made him even more emotional was that Tsunade-sama was worthy of being the strongest medical ninja in the world, directly changing Aoba’s physique.

…

The corners of Aoba’s mouth curled up slightly. He keenly sensed the change in Eaton’s aura and knew that the latter was in shock.

He deliberately displayed this move to Eaton.

The matter of him wanting to read the memories of this Kumogakure spy was just a cover.

The main purpose.

It was to take this opportunity to show Eaton a little bit of strength.

This was not because he was not cautious.

This was because he was too cautious.

If he had trained with Tsunade for a month without any results, wouldn’t it be even more suspicious and looked down on?

Now, he was showing a little bit.

In the future, Eaton’s attitude towards him would change even more.

This would be more convenient for him to walk on Konohagakure Intelligence Division’s path in the future, and he would be able to have more authority in front of Eaton.

“I see.”

Aoba’s voice slowly sounded out, and his tone was filled with dense confidence. It looked completely different from his previous frailness.
