CH 151

Aoba took out Konohagakure Intelligence Division’s scroll.

Ordinary people would not be able to obtain such a scroll; only Yuta could.

After the last visit.

He had some stock left in his hands.

At that time, the purpose of this leftover was to make Yuta’s name appear again at a certain time period.

Especially when the suspicion might be on his head.

At that time, Yuta would be able to carry the blame.

Even though he was not suspected.

But…

Aoba felt that he need to use it.

Using the limited Yuta scroll and Tatsuma secret code.

This could perfectly push Tatsuma’s death onto Yuta.

Instantly.

Aoba picked up his brush.

He was prepared to write down Kumogakure’s information and pass it to Danzo.

“En…”

“Wait a minute…”

“I have a new plan!”

Just as Aoba was about to write it out, another thought suddenly popped up in his head.

Gradually.

The corners of Aoba’s mouth curled up slightly.

His eyes gradually changed.

Sha sha sha…

Aoba held a brush in his hand as he imitated Yuta’s writing on the scroll.

After writing a scroll.

Then, he started writing another scroll.

Two scrolls.

The contents were completely different.

“It’s time to act.”

After Aoba finished writing the two scrolls, he put them in his ninja bag, changed into a ninja outfit, and quickly walked out of the Anbu’s dormitory.

At this moment.

It was already late.

The night shrouded Konohagakure.

After leaving Anbu’s dormitory, Aoba directly went into the dark little forest.

“Henge no Jutsu (Transformation Technique)!”

A loud bang sounded from Aoba’s body, and then his whole body turned into another appearance.

It was the appearance of Yuta.

The reason he used the Henge no Jutsu (Transformation Technique) this time was not to show his identity as Yuta.

After all, the Henge no Jutsu (Transformation Technique) had flaws.

It was possible to be perceived and seen through by special means.

In that case, it would be awkward.

Right now, he was not sure if his Sage Body and current chakra could achieve a perfect transformation.

If he was not sure, then he would not take the risk.

Aoba only uses Henge no Jutsu (Transformation Technique) to set up insurance for himself. If he was accidentally seen during the process, it would be more or less point to Yuta.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

With Yuta’s appearance, Aoba quickly shuttled through the woods.

Not long after.

Aoba arrived at the wall next to the Hokage Building.

He walked to the back of the wall.

He raised his hand and knocked lightly, finding a hollow brick.

“It’s here.”

Aoba picked up the brick, put the scroll in, and then put the brick back.

After that.

He injected his chakra into the brick.

Hum!

The brick suddenly emitted a strange chakra fluctuation, and black seals instantly appeared around it, matching with the wall.

Swish!

Aoba’s figure disappeared in a flash as if he had never appeared before.

A few minutes after Aoba left.

Two ninjas wearing Anbu’s mask appeared here. They use a secret technique to break the barrier in the brick and take out the scroll inside.

Then, the two of them disappeared.

…

On the other side.

Using Sekai’s memories, Aoba found the Konoha Military Police Force’s area.

At this time.

Konoha Military Police Force was brightly lit.

One by one, Konoha Military Police Force’s ninjas were rushing in and out. There were too many things they needed to investigate. It was destined to be a sleepless night.

At this moment.

Akaru and Fugaku did not return.

Aoba’s gaze immediately fell on Kenji, who he had seen in Ramen Ichiraku Noodle House.

This person…

It seemed like it was possible!

They were all Konoha Military Police Force’s people.

Suddenly.

Aoba held the scroll in his hand.

He then activated his Ninja Throwing Technique.

He threw the scroll precisely at Kenji from afar.

Whoosh!

The scroll broke through the air.

It directly cut through the air.

A piercing sound was heard.

It charged towards Kenji like a hidden weapon.

“Huh?”

Kenji suddenly felt a sense of danger approaching him and instinctively dodged it.

Bang!

Just as Kenji dodged it.

The scroll crashed into the ground.

Startled by the sound.

He fell to the ground.

“Who?”

Kenji immediately turned to look in the direction where the scroll come from but he could no longer see anyone.

‘Who is it?’

‘What is this thing?’

‘What’s going on?’

Several question marks popped up in Kenji’s head. He was thinking about how to frame Aoba and then discredit Fugaku through Aoba.

As he was thinking about the details.

He was interrupted by the scroll that had suddenly appeared.

He was shocked.

“What’s going on?”

When Kenji saw the scroll, he bent down and picked it up. He immediately saw the words on the scroll.

“Need to personally open by Uchiha Akaru?”

Kenji took a deep breath. He looked left and right, and his eyes flashed with determination. He put the scroll into his ninja bag and quickly returned to his residence.

…

After throwing the scroll out, Aoba quickly left. He understood that this kind of behavior was quite risky.

However.

He had a sense of propriety.

He was sure that he wouldn’t be discovered.

It was mainly because the arrival of Kumogakure Anbu Hari made him faintly feel the aura of a conspiracy.

In the anime, this time period is a blank space.

When Aoba was watching Naruto’s anime, the normal narrative started with Naruto and how the Fourth Ninja World War happened.

But…

About the third world war.

Only appeared in flashbacks and some dialogues.

He only knew that the fuse for the third Ninja War was the disappearance of Third Kazekage.

After the news of Third Kazekage’s disappearance spread. It greatly declined Sunagakure’s strength, which in turn led to the imbalance of power between the forces, making other major forces eager to move.

But other than these that were on the surface.

Aoba had a question that he could not figure out.

Why would the disappearance of the Third Kazekage cause the three countries to attack Konoha?

Kumogakure in the Country of Lightning attack Sunagakure in the Country of Wind can be justified.

So what happened to Konohagakure?

Why did they collectively attack Konohagakure?

Aoba was very clear that even in times of war, there had to be a reason. As long as there was a high-sounding reason that could be said it is enough.

But regarding the Third Ninja World War.

Aoba only knew three.

The first was Duy opening all eight doors to fight against the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of Kirigakure.

The second was the battle between the Minato team and Iwagakure in Kanabi bridge.

The third was between Minato and the future Fourth Raikage and his brothers.

This was all iconic battle.

What happened outside of this?

Aoba did not know.

But what he was sure of was…

Konohagakure suffered heavy casualties.

Because of this.

Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen had no choice but to abdicate.

As long as things were not that serious.

Even if Third Hokage died, he would not abdicate!

This was exactly what Aoba was thinking about. He doesn’t know what happened from now until the Third Ninja World War and the process of the Third Ninja World War!

After a while.

Aoba returned to the Anbu’s dormitory.

He lay on the iron bed and was ready to sleep.

What should be done and should not be done was done in this night.

Not only did he kill people.

He also sent out the information.

The rest would be up to Konohagakure to handle.

He was going to return to Konohagakure Intelligence Division and continue to work tomorrow.

…

Almost the same time.

In the Hokage’s office.

Akaru had just finished reporting to Hiruzen about his and Yamagata Ken’s guesses.

“Akaru, Fugaku, I know about this matter. You can go back.” With a pipe in his mouth, Hiruzen slowly took a puff and did not say anything else.

“How should we deal with this matter now? This is probably Kumogakure’s conspiracy!” Akaru said in confusion. He found that every time he reported something to Hiruzen, he was always calm and indifferent as if nothing was urgent.

Although it was good to be calm and collected.

But as a subordinate.

Akaru felt very tired and anxious!

“Isn’t this your guess?” Hiruzen raised his right hand and move the pipe in his mouth.

“Yes, this is my guess, but…” Akaru was immediately choked by Hiruzen’s words.

“You are Konoha Military Police Force’s Captain. The thing you are going to report to me is not speculation, but the result. If there is no result, then investigate.” Hiruzen directly interrupted Akaru.

“But…” Akaru was about to say something but was interrupted by Hiruzen again.

“There are no buts. You should do your best to investigate the case and reveal the truth. This is what you have to do. The rest is not what you have to consider.” Hiruzen shook his head and said.

“Third Hokage-sama, we came to report at the first moment to tell you that this might be Kumogakure’s plot. We, Konohagakure, should pay attention.” Fugaku could not help but say.

“Fugaku, you are a very outstanding ninja of the Uchiha younger generation. There is a high possibility that you will be able to sit in Akaru’s current position. As a member of the Konoha Military Police Force, you should understand this principle more. You can doubt a person, but when you are not sure, you can not use your suspicion as a basis. Do you understand?” Hiruzen stared at Fugaku and said.

“I understand this principle…” Fugaku helplessly revealed a bitter smile.

“Since you understand, then go and do what you should do. As Konoha Military Police Force’s people, you can’t think that something may be a conspiracy, or there may be some danger. You can judge this thing through your emotions. That will only cause the village to become more and more chaotic.” Hiruzen said in a deep voice.

“Yes…”

Akaru and Fugaku responded weakly. Then, they looked at each other and could see deep helplessness in each other’s eyes.

There was no other way.

They knew that no matter what they said, Hiruzen would not continue to listen.

This would not only cause Hiruzen to pay any attention to this matter, but it might also even cause Hiruzen to dislike them in the end.

Even though there was much unwillingness in their hearts.

They still left the Hokage’s office.

They helplessly returned to the Uchiha clan’s area.

…

In the Hokage’s office.

Hiruzen stood by the window with a pipe in his mouth, looking at the backs of the two Uchiha leaving, his eyes flashing with thoughts.

“Kumogakure self-directed and self-acted?”

The corners of Hiruzen’s mouth curled into a sneer. He did not believe that such a thing would happen.

As Konohagakure Third Hokage.

He was very clear…

If Kumogakure wanted to attack Konohagakure.

There was no need to lose a Jonin Ninja at all.

This was simply unnecessary.

It was even more illogical.

All of a sudden.

Hiruzen looked at the two Uchiha with a complicated expression.

“Isn’t the power given to the Uchiha clan too much during this period?”

Hiruzen muttered to himself in a voice that only he could hear.

As for Akaru and Fugaku’s suggestion.

Hiruzen felt that they were concealing their incompetence even more.

They lacked the ability to find the murderer and evidence.

Thus, they pushed the entire matter to Kumogakure as an act of their own.

Then, they went up to the village to give a warning to Kumogakure’s attack that had a small probability of appearing.

In the end, it caused everyone to feel anxious.

This was all caused by power!

Unconsciously.

Hiruzen felt a faint sense of unease about the way Uchiha’s clan handled things.

Will there be a day in the future?

If Uchiha’s clan did something wrong then he punished this clan…

What if they imagined that the village was targeting them and thus making excessive defenses?

Thinking of this.

Hiruzen’s expression became heavy.

…

At the Root Base in the underground of the Hokage Building.

Danzo did not participate in what was happening in the outside world, but now he had a scroll in his hand.

“You said that it was transmitted through Tatsuma’s secret code?” Danzo held the scroll and did not open it immediately. His face was gloomy, and no one knew what he was thinking.

“Yes!” The two Root Ninjas nodded.

“Strange.”

Danzo stared at the scroll which contained only a word on it, which read “Need to personally open by Danzo-sama”.

Other than that.

There was nothing.

The handwriting on it was not Tatsuma’s handwriting.

“You may leave.”

Danzo waved his hand at the two Root Ninjas, then check the scroll, turned around, and walked towards his office.

“Tatsuma is already dead, this is definitely not an accident.”

“Tatsuma has the Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal, there is no possibility of telling the secret code to others.”

“In that case.”

“Then there is only one explanation.”

“Someone read Tatsuma’s memories and saw the secret code between us.”

“That person is the one who wrote the scroll!”

Danzo narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the scroll that had not been opened. His heart was already in a state of chaos.

It had been a long time since there had been such a fierce fluctuation in his heart.

The last time.

It was when the Second Hokage asked who could be the bait to cover the retreat.

At that time, he was extremely scared.

Now, his heart was also filled with intense worry.

“You can read Tatsuma’s memory and know the secret code of communication between us…”

Danzo stared at the scroll coldly, and his eyes became dangerous.

“How many more things do you know?”
