Memories flooded into Aoba's mind.

These memories were the memories of the prisoners he had just read.

Through their memories.

Aoba saw the current situation of Konohagakure at this time.

Because of the arrival of war.

In the beginning, the villagers were in a state of panic, but later they became different.

People began to gradually calm down.

They accepted this matter.

Because people found that the Third Ninja World War was no different from the Second Ninja World War.

The flames of war were outside of the village.

It did not spread into the village.

If it is a relative of a ninja, there may be troubles with losing a loved one.

But as ordinary people in the village.

Most people did not have this problem.

They did not need to go to the battlefield, as long as they were protected by the ninjas in the village.

Gradually.

Some people began to be tempted.

This was also a key factor that led to the increase in crime rates during this period of time.

However...

These people were suppressed by a person called the cat-faced demon in Konohagakure Intelligence Division.

"Someone went missing again?"

Aoba frowned slightly behind the mask. He found that one of the recent events in the village was that there was another problem of missing people.

But this time, it was a small area.

The one who disappeared was not an ordinary person, but Chunin from a normal family.

They did not stir up too much trouble like ordinary people.

Instead, they were forgotten after being told.

Some people even felt that they were afraid of the war and fled the village on an unknown night.

About the disappearance of Chunin.

All of a sudden.

There were many different opinions.

It could only be said that they were discussing, but it did not cause any real public opinion.

"This matter is not as simple as it seems. I hope you won't touch me."

Aoba muttered to himself. Then, he opened his eyes. He had already briefly looked through the memories he had read just now. The main thing was still the changes in the village during the war. There were not too many big things happening.

The waves caused by the remnants of the old era in the past few months could not be compared.

Then.

Aoba walked out of Konohagakure Intelligence Division's compartment and directly returned to the Anbu's dormitory.

He saw a man wearing a black trenchcoat not long after he walked out.

From this figure, he didn't even need to see his face to know that this person was Eaton.

"Brother Eaton."

Aoba immediately waved to Eaton and greeted him. He vaguely felt that Eaton was waiting for him here. It didn't seem like a normal route from work.

"Aoba, did the Hokage's Anbus look for you this morning?" Eaton stared at Aoba and asked directly.

"Yes, they looked for me. It seems that someone has disappeared. They looked for me to understand the situation. I don't know either!" It seemed to have nothing to do with him and gave a very simple answer.

"The Hokage's Anbus have investigated the entire Anbu. Recently, during the war, Anbu was not very peaceful. I am waiting for you here to remind you that you must be careful. You must be safe and not try to be brave!" Eaton said seriously. To him, Aoba was a very important person. Not only was he Tsunade-sama's personal student, but he was also the author of "Teacher Bai of Ninja School". Nothing must happen to him.

"Brother Eaton, don't worry. I am fine. No one knows me. Trouble won't find me." Aoba shook his head and said.

"That's good..."

Eaton nodded, but he still felt uneasy. After thinking for a while, he added, "During the war, there may be people from other villages lurking in the village. No matter when don't let your guard down."

"I understand!"

Aoba took a deep look at Eaton in front of him. No matter his purpose, he could see that Eaton's concern for him came from the bottom of his heart. This made him feel a warm feeling in his heart.

"It's good that you understand. I have nothing else to do. I came here to remind you that the village is not peaceful now. There is no rush. You can write slowly. I am not in a hurry. I am not in a hurry at all." Eaton waved his hand and explained. He pretended not to care at all and entirely like he was trying to cover it up.

"Eh..."

The corner of Aoba's mouth behind the mask twitched slightly. This hint was too obvious.

However...

It was indeed possible to update a part for Eaton.

He couldn't always wait for Eaton to urge him to update.

In this case.

He was not sure when Eaton would run to his dormitory.

Together with the matter of Hokage's Anbu checking his room this morning.

If he left in the future...

At least one shadow clone was left behind in the dormitory.

But it was best to leave the original body in the dormitory, and the shadow clones could then cause trouble outside.

After Aoba combined Shikigami no Mai(Dance of the Shikigami) and Kage Bunshin no Jutsu(Shadow Clone Technique) together, together with Kami no Shisha no Jutsu(Paper Person of God Technique), it could already reach a terrifying camouflage. That was a change that even the Sharingan could not see through.

With this change, he could realize many scenes.

Moreover, if there was an accident, those advanced paper clones could also turn into papers that filled the sky and disappeared in the eyes of others.

"Brother Eaton, I will go back and write it now. I will give you a new chapter in the next few days."

Aoba nodded and said. He felt that the modern society novels taken from the forum, after a little modification, had already achieved a dimensional attack on the authors of the ninja world novels.

"This is what you said!"

Eaton looked at Aoba with excitement in his eyes. Thinking that he had a book to read again, it was hard to hide the happiness in his heart.

"Hahahaha, yes, I said it. Brother Eaton, wait for a while. I will show it to you after I finish writing." Aoba nodded and said with a smile. He found that Eaton was also quite interesting. At least he had a hobby that belonged to him. He could go to his own liking and firmly control this leader.

"Aoba, I knew you could do it!"

Eaton raised his hand and was about to pat Aoba on the shoulder, but he suddenly retracted it when his hand stopped in mid-air.

The entire action was very smooth.

It was obvious that he had repeated it countless times.

"It's a pity that this is the era of war. Otherwise, if your book were to be published, there would definitely be more readers who would like it. It would be a bit like missing a good era." Eaton sighed. Now, both Konohagakure and Kumogakure were in a very subtle situation. This situation directly affected the entire war situation in the ninja world, and it would have a great impact on the publishing industry.

"It doesn't matter. Brother Eaton, you read this book yourself. Besides, the war will end eventually." Aoba shook his head lightly. He actually did not have the idea of publishing these books. After all, he might become famous. It was difficult for this kind of book not to be popular.

This feeling was quite strange.

If it were in modern society, the authors would use all their strength for fame.

But Aoba now had such an opportunity, but he could give it up very casually.

The main reason was that he did not want too many people in the ninja world to know of his existence, especially his talent. Even if it were just a little, he was not willing to expose it.

The more he was exposed.

The more troublesome it was.

He hates troublesome things very much...

"You are right; the war will end sooner or later. When the war is over, it can be released!" Eaton's eyes flashed with expectation. He had already foreseen the "Teacher Bai of the Ninja School" scene appearing out of nowhere and sweeping the ninja world.

"Let's talk about it when the time comes..."

A helpless smile appeared on Aoba's face behind the mask. However, he felt that he could also change his identity and release it. After all, he could use pen names.

He had come to the ninja world.

He could more or less use some cultural invasion.

He'll see when the time comes.

If he has the mood to do so.

"There's nothing else. I'm mainly here to remind you that this war will continue for a period of time. The undercurrents of various forces are surging. You have to be careful of your own safety." Eaton warned again.

"Brother Eaton, let me ask one more question. How is the situation now?" Aoba asked curiously. He had never been to the front line, so he naturally did not know about the situation at the front line.

Through the memories of the prisoners he read, there was nothing found on them.

There was no information about the war.

There was no good news.

There was also no bad news.

That feeling was that apart from the panic in the village, there didn't seem to be a war going on outside.

It was very strange!

"This war is now in a testing phase."

Eaton looked deeply at Aoba. If this were asked by someone else, he would definitely not say anything.

But the person in front of him was Aoba.

It did not matter if he said anything.

"Still testing?"

The brows behind Aoba's mask twitched. They had been fighting for more than ten days, but they were still testing each other?

"This battle involves too many things. After the first day, the emotions of both sides became less intense."

Eaton shook his head. He originally wanted to say something simple, but since he had already said it to this point, he felt uncomfortable in his heart and simply explained a few more words.

"In theory, the level of the Ninja World War is often a chaotic battle between multiple forces. In the battle, they maintained a balance and did not completely kill each other."

"Now, because of the incident of Kumogakure's invaders attacking Konohagakure, it directly broke the balance between the forces. However, there are only Konohagakure and Kumogakure on the battlefield. It is very difficult to have a too intense battle like this."

"I don't know if you can understand what I mean..."

"There is Sunagakure watching from behind Konohagakure, and Iwagakure is watching beside Kumogakure. If a large-scale battle breaks out rashly, it is easy for others to take advantage of it."

"We, Konohagakure, have indeed had a few small-scale battles with Kumogakure ninjas, but both sides have their own taboos. They only stop at the right time and immediately retreat when they are at a disadvantage. Those who have the upper hand do not go all out to chase after them. The two heads have something to fear, and they did not directly use all their strength."

After Eaton explained this to Aoba. He raised his hand again, wanting to pat Aoba on the shoulder, but he took it back again.

"I won't talk to you about these things on the battlefield. It's fine as long as you know what's going on. I think we still have to confront each other for a period of time, ten days or half a month."

"The opportunity to fight is definitely not from Konohagakure or Kumogakure. I guess it is Iwagakure who is coveting beside us."

"If Iwagakure doesn't move, everything will be balanced. If Iwagakure moves, then this balance will be broken. All the chaos will come."

After saying this, Eaton waved to Aoba and turned to walk behind.

"I won't say anymore!"

"Aoba, go back and rest early!"

"We still have work to do tomorrow!"

Eaton did not want to talk too much about the details with Aoba. If Aoba knew about this, it would not be of any help to the war. Instead, it would bring some trouble to Aoba.

He simply knew a little.

It was enough for Aoba.

"Goodbye, Brother Eaton."

Aoba looked at Eaton's back and slowly nodded. He already understood the general situation.

"It seems that both sides are afraid!"

"Kumogakure might be afraid of Iwagakure, or the captured Hari."

"What is Konohagakure afraid of?"

"It's just that Third Hokage doesn't want to start a war at all."

Aoba shook his head helplessly. Even he could see that this was the best time to fight Kumogakure.

Now that Konohagakure held Hari in their hand, they could attack Kumogakure under Kumogakure's fear.

You should know...

Iwagakure would not easily help Kumogakure.

Both sides were enemies.

If Konohagakure had the upper hand in the beginning, Iwagakure would have invaded Kumogakure to take advantage of the situation.

At this time, there was no need to be allies.

They had a common enemy.

But...

Aoba felt that the Third Hokage would miss this opportunity bit by bit.

When Kumogakure recovered and attacked Konohagakure, it was time for Iwagakure to come in and get a piece of the pie.

At that time.

Iwagakure was also fighting with Kumogakure.

However, it was not a battle between the two sides, but a competition to see who could tear off a bigger piece of fat on Konohagakure.

"Up to you."

Aoba was already deeply helpless toward the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen. He felt that it was about time for the Hokage replacement.

Otherwise, wait until the Third Hokage has destroyed the current high-quality resources of Konohagakure.

All that was left for Minato was a mess.

However.

Aoba was not willing to meddle in these affairs.

Aoba walked along the dark underground path towards Anbu's dormitory and soon returned to the dormitory.

"En..."

Aoba wondered if he should leave a shadow clone here to avoid any problems.

However, after thinking for a while.

Half of his chakra would be taken away if he used the shadow clone now.

He should go to the tower first.

Then he would throw one of Tajū Kage Bunshin no Jutsu(Multiple Shadow Clone Technique) back to Anbu's dormitory to stand guard.

This was enough.

Suddenly.

Aoba thought of something.

He used his perception to lock onto the mark of the Hiraishin no Jutsu(Flying Thunder God Technique) left behind by the tower.

He immediately used Hiraishin no Jutsu(Flying Thunder God Technique).

Swish!

His entire figure flashed and disappeared, leaving the empty dormitory.

The tall tower, the first floor of the dojo.

After Aoba appeared here, he quickly crossed his hands in front of him and posed Tajū Kage Bunshin no Jutsu(Multiple Shadow Clone Technique)'s hand seals.

He never thought that the most used ninjutsu he used in Naruto's world was actually Tajū Kage Bunshin no Jutsu(Multiple Shadow Clone Technique).

This was too shocking!

"Tajū Kage Bunshin no Jutsu(Multiple Shadow Clone Technique)!"

Aoba's voice slowly rang out. In an instant, shadow clones that looked exactly like him appeared in the spacious dojo on the first floor of the tower.

Then.

Aoba looked at the closest shadow clone beside him and nodded at him.

Swish!

This shadow clone understood what Aoba meant. In a flash, he used Hiraishin no Jutsu(Flying Thunder God Technique) and returned to Anbu's dormitory.

The shadow clone directly lay on the iron bed, as if it were going to sleep and rest.

In the tower dojo.

After looking around at each shadow clone and took out a huge scroll.

"I believe everyone knows what I am thinking. After all, we are all the same."

Aoba's loud and clear voice echoed in the dojo, clearly entering the ears of every shadow clone.

"We are going to study Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu now!"

"Of course..."

"Today's main task is not to study, but to recite."

"Everyone recite it together."

"Everyone recites a water escape ninjutsu."

"Let's first engrave the contents of Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu into our mind!"

Aoba instructed the shadow clones. Even if he didn't say these things, the shadow clones would know in their mind.

The appearance of Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu.

It made Aoba temporarily change his training strategy.

The books that Minato gave him were temporarily delayed. The blank paper tags that had not been drawn were temporarily delayed, and the memories that had not been carefully studied were temporarily delayed...

These things were not as important as Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu!

Now that he had obtained the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu, in order to avoid the long night and long dreams, he had to directly raise the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu to the highest priority level.

Aoba wanted to memorize all the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu contents and then practice all of them to master all the water release ninjutsu above.

At that time.

He had another trump card in his hand.

"Now, let's start!"

After Aoba finished his last sentence, the shadow clones on the tower's first floor nodded.

The shadow clone at the front took the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu scroll from Aoba.

The other shadow clones came over with huge blank scrolls in their hands, ready to transcribe the contents of Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu.

Aoba bought ten of these scrolls.

One of them fell into the hands of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.

The shadow clones used the remaining nine. After all, he could not allow so many shadow clones to pass around the same scroll.

That would be a waste of efficiency.

For a moment.

These shadow clones began to work together.

They were in different positions, doing different things. Some were transcribing; some were reciting...

Aoba nodded with satisfaction. He left the dojo on the first floor and walked towards the watchtower on the third floor.

When he was free, he would look at the scenery here.

At this moment.

Aoba sat on a chair on the watchtower and watched the setting sun and the forest fall into silence.

"Huh?"

All of a sudden.

Aoba frowned slightly.

His perception, which he had been raising all along, made him discover that three chakras were rapidly moving toward the tower's direction.

One was in front.

Two were behind.

From this posture...

It was as if they were chasing each other.

No.

It was a chase!

Aoba felt the killing intent surging out from the two chakra balls behind.

"What's going on?"

A big question mark appeared on Aoba's head. Now, this place was already deep in the forest. How could someone come here?

Boom!

Along with a crisp sound.

The ball of chakra in front of him actually broke through the barbed wire and drilled into the fence where the tower was located.

Such an unforeseen event.

Aoba's expression immediately turned cautious.

"I hope they are just passing by."

Aoba said indifferently. After that, he increased his perception ability and focused on whether there were any reinforcements within the range.
