CH 236

Aoba felt the gaze of the opposite ninja. But there was no expression on his face as if he could not see anything.

He directly ignored the gaze of the ninja who was about to eat him and placed his hand on the ninja's head.

"Ding Dong! Memory Reading Succesful! Obtained: Fūton: Kaze no Yaiba(Wind Release: Blade of Wind)!"

A crisp electronic prompt sounded in Aoba's mind.

What followed was a memory.

It was the memory of this person in front of him.

Suddenly.

Aoba pressed his hands on the temples of this ninja in front of him. A stream of chakra emerged from his hands, and he immediately used Yamanaka's Mind Reading Secret Technique.

In a split second.

Aoba used his chakra in the direction of the latter's brain nerves.

Now, Aoba did not directly use the secret technique but used chakra according to the secret technique. The chakra kept climbing on the head of the ninja in front of him, making the latter frown repeatedly.

However...

Aoba did not care about his rude treatment. He slowly closed his eyes and began to read the memories of this person in front of him.

This person was called Mani.

A Sunagakure ninja.

He sneaked into Konohagakure as a spy ten years ago and finally entered the Anbu.

It was worth mentioning...

Just seven years ago, in the 30th year of Konoha, Mani sneaked into Konohagakure for almost three years.

Mani received a letter from his wife.

His son was born!

This made Mani, who was far away in a foreign country, burst into tears. He was determined to shed his blood for Sunagakure and kept fighting for Sunagakure, which earned him a father buff.

Aoba simply checked Mani's memories.

He found that this person would pass information about Konohagakure to Sunagakure every once in a while. Especially during this period of time, it was more frequent than usual.

Mani almost told Sunagakure everything that happened to Konohagakure in recent days, so the Third Kazekage decided to lunch a sneak attack from behind Konohagakure.

"En..."

Aoba softly made a sound. He immediately strengthened the chakra in his hand, and it immediately stirred up like a whirlwind in Mani's head.

Aoba only roughly glanced at Mani's memories. He found a few people who were also Sunagakure's spies. They had intelligence connections with Mani, but those people were not among the Anbu.

The only spy that sneak into the Anbu successfully was Mani.

How should he put it...

Aoba silently thought about this matter in his heart. He did not want to take the initiative to point out that this Mani was a spy.

In that case, think of another way!

Aoba suddenly thought of something that he had read in Tsunade's memory about the matter of chakra disturbing the brain and causing abnormal behavior.

Strictly speaking, it belonged to the category of Shōsen Jutsu(Mystical Palm Technique).

Not only could it disturb the brain nerves, but it could also disturb the other nerves of the human body. It could cause the body to be out of control, like causing an abnormal reaction of wanting to raise a hand but raising the foot instead.

Instantly.

Aoba immediately thought of a solution.

At this time, more and more chakra gathered in his hand, and the nature of chakra became more and more violent as if it formed a special brain wave, and it rhythmically moved on Mani's head.

It was like playing music, and through external interference, it imperceptibly affected the other party's mood.

On the surface, Aoba maintained the appearance of using the Mind Reading Secret Technique and used chakra to transmit that irritable feeling to Mani's brain constantly.

In a split second.

Mani, who was in front of Aoba, frowned.

Even he himself did not notice that his emotions were becoming more and more agitated...

Even he could not describe this feeling clearly. It was as if he was very tired. The background music that was as depressing as Black Friday rang out around him. Beside him, two people were arguing. The sound of the quarrel was very harsh but familiar.

It was a couple arguing.

The woman's voice was very similar to his wife's.

The man's voice was a bit like the Third Kazekage.

The two of them were arguing about something.

Then the man who had the same voice as the Third Kazekage directly blocked the mouth of the woman who had the same voice as his wife.

Then...

It was a voice that made him even more agitated...

At the same time.

A very strange feeling arose in his heart.

It was as if the voice of the Third Kazekage was right next to his ear. The voice was overbearing and gentle.

"What are you afraid of!"

"It'll be fine when he is born!"

"Let's call it Maji!"

"No one knows anyway!"

When the Third Kazekage's last voice sounded, Mani's eyes widened. At this moment, his irritation had reached its limit. He suddenly realized that he had been away from Sunagakure for three years, but his son had suddenly been born.

It was as if Mani had fallen into a cycle of doubt and irritability for the Third Kazekage, which made him very unhappy. He wanted to break free from it, not wanting to endure it for a second longer.

Snapped!

At this moment.

Mani's expression changed drastically as he glared at Aoba.

"Do you know how to check?!"

Mani roared at Aoba, then swung his hand and pushed Aoba.

Aoba was waiting for this to happen. He directly fell behind him and controlled his body to fall to the ground.

Bang!

Aoba's back collided with the ground, making a muffled sound.

The commotion instantly attracted everyone's attention.

Swish!

Almost in an instant.

Everyone's eyes turned to Mani, including the ninjas of the Yamanaka Clan and the Anbu, who were waiting to be examined and checked.

"What are you doing?"

"Why did you hit someone?"

"Do you have any questions?"

All of a sudden.

Three voices sounded at the same time, all pointing at Mani, who had just pushed Aoba out.

One was the middle-aged man from the Yamanaka clan who had read Aoba's memories.

The other was the Anbu, who had just been read by Aoba and received a brain spa.

The last was the white-robed Anbu, who was constantly observing the situation.

The three of them spoke at almost the same time.

The scene instantly attracts all three of them.

The white-robed Anbu first looked at the ninja from the Yamanaka clan, who was examining other people's memories. Then he looked at the ninja whose memories were read by Aoba, and a thought flashed through his eyes.

Looks like...

This Yamanaka Aoba was a little unusual!

He was actually able to make the person with who he had read his memories and the person who had read his memories speak up for him without hesitation.

The figure of the white-robed Anbu flashed out and stood between Aoba and Mani. His eyes were fixed on Mani and faintly felt that there was something wrong with this person.

The middle-aged man of the Yamanaka clan had not yet completed the task of reading memories. He did not move, but he had already begun to slowly withdraw the chakra in his hands, trying not to hurt the person in front of him.

Just at this time.

A figure flashed by.

It was the assassin that Aoba had read through his memories.

He quickly appeared beside Aoba.

He did not immediately help Aoba up. He was afraid that this would cause a second injury to Aoba.

"Are you okay?"

The man asked with concern. He had felt the care from Aoba just now. Now that he saw Aoba being pushed away violently, he was very unhappy.

"It's okay..."

Aoba said faintly. He took this opportunity to say to the ninja beside him, "That person's memory is a little strange, but I haven't found anything yet..."

Aoba's voice was not loud.

But the scene was very quiet.

Moreover, they were all paying attention to this side.

As soon as Aoba said this.

The expressions of all the ninjas present became solemn.

There was something wrong with this person!

Everyone was aware of this matter!

From the beginning of the screening of Anbu until now, they all had a very strange and complicated feeling. No one was willing to believe that there were spies from other villages among the Anbu.

Three batches of Anbu had been screened in a row at this time. They were all fine until Aoba was pushed away by Mani.

"Are you a spy?"

The white-robe Anbu stared at Mani. His voice was a little low, and his whole person became cautious, completely putting on a fighting posture.

His question was very direct.

This made all the Anbu present look at Mani and their eyes flashed with confusion.

Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!

At the same time.

Four of Hokage's Anbus flashed out and appeared around Mani, trapping him.

"I'm not..."

Mani suddenly recovered from what had just happened. He immediately felt a wave of regret. However, things had already come to this. There was no way to salvage the situation.

'What is going on?'

'Why is he so impulsive just now?'

Mani frowned. He kept recalling what had just happened. His mind was a mess. He had no idea what had happened. It was as if he had temporarily lost his memories.

Even he himself could not remember what kind of emotion he had just felt.

He was very unhappy.

Something seemed to have appeared on his head, but he was not too clear about it.

His entire body was in a state of dullness.

It was like the side effects of taking some medicine.

"Let me read his memories!"

Among the ninjas of the Yamanaka clan, the middle-aged man who had just read Aoba's memories walked out. His face was determined, and his eyes changed from gentle and kind to unhappy ones.

"There is no problem with this person. He has passed. I am free now. Aoba has just been pushed down. Let him take a rest."

The middle-aged man said to the white-robed Anbu. As he spoke, he pointed at the person who he had just read his memories. Then, his gaze fell on Mani.

Mani's actions just now had already made this kind-hearted middle-aged man feel a strong sense of dissatisfaction in his heart.

After reading Aoba's memories, he liked Aoba very much.

This kind of liking was not the kind of like he liked for talented juniors.

Instead, he liked this kind of diligent and down-to-earth person.

This was just like when he was in school; teachers often liked two kinds of students. One was good at studying, and the other was very hardworking in studying.

Aoba showed this middle-aged man the feeling of being serious.

That kind of serious attitude towards work that any boss was very fond of.

In his eyes.

Aoba may not be the core of the clan or division's rise, but he was an excellent material.

This was enough to attract them to give an olive branch to Aoba.

"Okay."

The white-robed Anbu nodded. Now that he had a senior of Yamanaka's clan to read this person's memories, he was more at ease with this result.

"You all stay by his side. As long as he makes any move, immediately subdue him. Do not let him do anything to hurt others." The white-robed Anbu said to the four Anbu standing beside Mani.

"Yes!"

The four Anbu all responded. Their eyes were all fixed on Mani and did not leave for a moment, as if they wanted to see Mani's every move.

When Mani saw the current situation, he suddenly panicked.

It was over.

What he feared came.

If he had held on a little longer just now, he might have been able to hold on.

It was obvious that the youth did not have much experience!

There was nothing he could do now. He had caught the attention of the seniors of the Yamanaka clan. He could only pin his hopes that the other party would not discover his spy behavior. Instead, he would only notice his normal Anbu work.

Mani prayed silently in his heart.

After all, for spies like them, not every minute and every second was a spy. To be able to sneak into the ranks of Anbu, he had to conceal himself as much as possible and complete missions for Konohagakure to reach such a position.

From his memory.

The memory of working for Konohagakure and the proportion of the memory when working as a spy...

It was about fifty to fifty!

Mani did not resist. He stood in place and waited for the middle-aged man from the Yamanaka clan to read his memories. He now placed his hopes on fate.

He hoped that the Goddess of Fate would favor him.

When the other party read his memories, he hoped that his contribution to Konohagakure was all he had read.

However...

This matter was obviously impossible!

The middle-aged man had already heard Aoba say that there was something wrong with Mani's memory. He was already mentally prepared. In addition, when Mani pushed Aoba out, he took the initiative to read the memory. He wanted to find who this person was.

The middle-aged man obviously did not want to go through the formality!

In an instant.

The middle-aged man walked in front of Mani. He stretched out his hands and pressed them on Mani's temples. He immediately began to use the Mind Reading Secret Technique of the Yamanaka clan and began to search Mani's memories.

Such a scene.

It attracted the attention of everyone around.

Other than this middle-aged man, the other members of the Yamanaka clan also completed the task of searching for memories.

The white-robed Anbu had yet to point out the next batch of people.

They were in a state where he had nothing to do.

In this state, they all looked curiously at Mani, wanting to know if Mani was really a spy from the outside village.

Aoba lay on the ground.

Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Mani.

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

'Not bad!'

He was just a small character that Mani had beaten out of his mind.

It would not attract the attention of others at all.

The person who read Mani's memory was a middle-aged man from the Yamanaka clan.

The credit was all from that middle-aged man.

He was just buying soy sauce.

"Do you need me to help you up?"

At this time, the Anbu next to Aoba, who was responsible for the assassination mission, said softly. He had a very good impression of Aoba, and now he felt extremely comfortable in his brain.

"No need, I can get up myself."

Aoba put on a brave expression under this person's gaze. His hands supported the ground, and his body slowly lifted up.

The ninja witnessed the whole process of Aoba getting up. He wanted to intervene several times to help Aoba, but when he thought about how Aoba said that there was no need. It was clear that he did not want to be helped. He probably had his own pride in his heart, so he did not make a move.

When Aoba sat up, he sat down beside Aoba and asked curiously, "Is he really a spy?"

"When I was reading his memory, I was just about to find something when he pushed me away. I can't explain it clearly now." Aoba shook his head. He knew that there were too many people here. It was definitely not the time to be in the limelight. As long as he kept a low profile, trouble would not find him.

"If that's the case, then I think that there is a big problem with that person." The Anbu nodded and said. He was usually in charge of the mission of assassinating the ninjas outside the village. His sense of smell and intuition were very sharp.

Just as the ninja in charge of the assassination was talking to Aoba.

The expression of the middle-aged man who read Mani's memory became more and more ugly.

This kind of change in expression.

Everyone saw it all.

Including the white-robed Anbu, who was standing at the side.

Everyone had already seen through the change in the middle-aged man's expression.

A moment later.

The middle-aged man withdrew his hands.

Under everyone's gaze, he opened his eyes. His pitch-black pupils shot out a cold light.

"He is a spy that Sunagakure planted in Konohagakure!"

The middle-aged man said.

The entire field fell into a deathly silence, and everyone's expressions changed drastically.

In just an instant.

The sounds of discussion suddenly rose, and almost everyone was discussing. They pointed at Mani, and the center of the topic was this Sunagakure spy hidden in Anbu.

"Are you sure?" The voice of the white-robed Anbu became awe-inspiring, but he did not directly announce the result. He repeated the confirmation to the middle-aged man.

"I'm sure!"

The middle-aged man nodded firmly. He had clearly seen Mani's memory just now. This person was Sunagakure's spy.

"Just three days ago, he also received an order from Sunagakure's Third Kazekage. The secret letter was in the soles of his shoes."
