CH 237

The middle-aged man's voice was not soft. He deliberately raised his voice so that everyone could hear him.

This could also be considered revenge for Aoba!

When the middle-aged man was searching for the memory of this Sunagakure spy. The more he searched, the more shocked he became. This person's memory was really problematic.

Now it seems...

Aoba was not only diligent but also very serious when doing things. He did not easily miss any details.

This was very good quality!

The middle-aged man's evaluation of Aoba in his heart became even higher.

"Take off his shoes!"

The white-robed Anbu ordered a ninja beside him.

"Yes!"

This Anbu immediately responded. Under everyone's gaze, he directly walked in front of Mani, preparing to take off the latter's shoes.

"What are you doing!"

Mani's expression changed greatly. He suddenly raised his foot and kicked the Anbu, then put on a posture of extreme resistance.

This posture combined with the words of the middle-aged man just now.

Everyone immediately realized.

This person should really be Sunagakure's spy!

Swish!

The moment this Sunagakure spy raised his foot and kicked out, the figure of the white-robed Anbu flashed out and instantly appeared behind Mani.

At the same time.

The white-robed Anbu moved his wrist and directly grabbed Mani's neck. His other foot kicked towards the foot that Mani had not raised.

That was the only point where Mani supported his body.

In a split second.

Mani lost his balance.

His entire body flipped in the air.

His body fell to the ground.

Bang!

Accompanied by a heavy sound.

Mani's body fell to the ground. From the degree of the sound, it was much more vicious than Aoba's fall.

As Mani fell down.

That Anbu from before quickly grabbed towards Mani's shoes.

Under Mani's intense resistance, he took off all of Mani's shoes.

Then.

This Anbu tore apart the shoes and instantly discovered that there was a gap between the soles of his shoes.

"Captain, there really is something in his shoes!"

As this Anbu spoke, he directly removed the soles and immediately saw two pieces of paper that had become stinky.

He did not care about the stench that came out from the paper and immediately opened the paper.

"Captain, this is indeed a letter from the Third Kazekage!"

This Anbu only glanced at it and knew that the contents of the letter should not be something he could read. Then, he quickly folded the paper and handed it to the white-robed Anbu.

"Take these two pieces of paper and bring this person to the Third Hokage-sama."

The white-robed Anbu did not take the smelly piece of paper. He just waved his hand and ordered the latter to send these to the Third Hokage.

"Yes!"

This Anbu immediately responded. Then, he nodded to the four Anbu beside Mani.

Immediately.

The four of them grabbed Mani and took him away.

Under everyone's gaze, he disappeared just like that.

All of a sudden.

The mood of everyone present was very heavy.

A spy from outside the village.

Just like that, he was pulled out right in front of them.

This situation gave them a great visual impact.

"He really is a spy!"

The Anbu in charge of the assassination mission gave Aoba a thumbs up and praised him.

"This has nothing to do with me. I almost screwed up the matter. The seniors in the clan are really amazing. They can even find out the Kazekage letter in the soles of the shoes. They are really too powerful!" Aoba did not hesitate at all in the face of the praise of this Anbu Ninja. He directly threw the praise to the middle-aged ninja.

"This..."

This Anbu did not know what to say for a moment. He wanted to say that if Aoba had not been sent flying by that Sunagakure spy, it might not have caused such a big commotion.

But...

No matter how he phrased it, it didn't sound like anything good!

He simply held it back.

Just at this moment.

The middle-aged man from the Yamanaka clan walked towards Aoba. His serious face revealed a smile.

"Are you alright?"

The middle-aged man asked Aoba. His tone was filled with deep concern.

"I'm fine, I'm fine..."

Aoba shook his head. He wasn't pretending to be weak here. Although he still had to maintain that his physical fitness wasn't too strong, at least he wouldn't be sent flying out and be unable to continue working.

"En."

The middle-aged man nodded. He walked in front of Aoba and bowed slightly. He raised his right hand and made a gesture of pulling Aoba up.

Aoba was not polite to this middle-aged man. Since the other party had shown good intentions, he accepted it calmly. He also extended his right hand.

Aoba's right hand held the middle-aged man's right hand.

Suddenly.

The middle-aged man pulled hard.

He directly pulled Aoba up from the ground.

Then.

Aoba followed the middle-aged man back to the position where he checked Anbu's memories.

Aoba was very clear.

What he had to do now was to screen out the spies among the Anbu for the village.

This kind of work was not something that he would say that his health was not good and that he would not do it. Even if he was tired, at least he had to hold on until all the Anbu here were screened out.

The eyes of the white-robed Anbu fell on Aoba. Seeing that Aoba quietly returned to his post, he nodded to Aoba.

He did not say anything to comfort him or ask about Aoba's condition.

Just as Aoba had guessed.

Now that the village was looking for spies, compared to his physical condition, it was just a small matter.

As Aoba returned to his post.

The ninjas of the Yamanaka clan stood in a row again.

It appears that they would continue to screen out the memories of the Anbu.

When the white-robed Anbu saw this scene, his eyes flashed with gratification. He no longer showed any special appearance.

About three minutes later.

A figure flashed out and appeared next to the white-robed Anbu. It was the Anbu ninja who sent Mani to the Third Hokage.

This Anbu leaned close to the ear of the white-robed Anbu. It was unknown what he said.

After he finished speaking.

His figure flashed and disappeared again.

At this time.

Almost all the eyes of the Anbu fell on the white-robed Anbu and waiting for the latter's next order.

Under the expectant eyes of everyone.

The voice of the white-robed Anbu sounded again, echoing in this wide area.

"Now, we have only checked three batches of Anbu and found a Sunagakure's spy. This proves that our action is very necessary!"

The white-robe Anbu glanced at the remaining Anbu who had not been examined. The look in his eyes was extremely sharp, enough to make everyone feel his seriousness.

"The village did not suspect any of you, but this kind of screening is necessary. What happened just now was just a small interlude. The people I selected next, prepare to accept the next round of examination."

The white-robed Anbu once again emphasized that the village did not suspect anyone.

But from the way they did it.

It could be said that...

The village suspected everyone here!

Everyone had to pass the examination before they could prove their innocence.

It could be said that everyone was the object of suspicion.

Almost in an instant.

Another batch of Anbu was called out and stood in front of the Yamanaka clansmen.

This time.

Standing in front of Aoba was a slightly fat Anbu.

Following the command of the white-robed Anbu.

The ninjas of the Yamanaka clan began to sift through these ninjas again.

...

Gradually.

A day passed.

As night fell.

The last batch of Anbu was also screened out.

Ever since Aoba met Mani, he had not met any spies. All the people in front of him were normal Anbu.

Just like the Anbu in charge of the assassination mission.

Aoba had made a brain spa for them, helping them dispel the day's fatigue and making their spirits better.

This feeling could only be felt by people who Aoba had read.

By reading the memories of these people.

There was a few more ninjutsu in Aoba's ninjutsu repertoire, which made his ninjutsu repertoire more abundant.

Except for Aoba.

The people of the Yamanaka clan stood in this row, after Mani, discovered a spy from Iwagakure and Kumogakure.

But...

What surprised everyone was...

In the memory of Kumogakure's spy, there was nothing about Gasshi.

At that time, the Yamanaka clan ninja found Kumogakure spy but did not find Gasshi in the memories. After that, he changed to another ninja of the Yamanaka clan to read.

After changing three to four times in a row.

Everyone got the same answer.

That was, this Kumogakure spy knew the same thing as them. He was also confused about Gasshi's matter. He also did not know where Gasshi was hiding and how he got mixed up with the two Kirigakure spies.

"Now you can disband yourselves!"

The white-robed Anbu swept his gaze over the Anbu present. After he said this, he directly left.

Following the departure of the white-robed Anbu.

The Hokage's Anbu who was in charge of monitoring this place left one after another.

"Finally done!"

"Oh my god! I'm so tired!"

"I didn't expect there to be a spy among us!"

"Actually, we should have checked it out a long time ago!"

"That's right!"

"..."

The Anbus left one after another. They were not wearing masks now and were in groups of three or five. They were people who were familiar with each other.

Aoba still stayed in the field and did not go with anyone.

After the people left one after another.

Aoba had just left the Hokage Building. He did not return to Anbu's dormitory but walked in the direction of Ramen Ichiraku.

There was a reason for Aoba to do this.

Just now, he read the memories of those people and helped them make a brain spa. He could feel that those Anbu wanted to make friends with him, and their eyes always fell on him intentionally or unintentionally.

Aoba did not have any intention of making friends with any of them.

This feeling was like raising a pet.

Aoba was the kind that would sincerely pay for a pet, but he could not accept the departure of a pet, so he simply did not raise it.

Well...

It was equivalent to not wanting to experience the pain of breaking up, so he simply did not have a girlfriend!

Aoba walked along the street in front of the Hokage Building and walked into Ramen Ichiraku.

He had just stepped in.

He saw Fugaku sitting in a chair eating ramen.

Moreover, there was only Fugaku in the entire Noodle House!

"Brother Fugaku?"

Aoba originally wanted to leave when he saw Fugaku, but there was no one else here. When he entered, he had already attracted Fugaku's attention. If he rashly turned around and left, it would instead seem like he had done something wrong.

"Why are you eating ramen here alone?"

Aoba continued to ask.

He was indeed a little confused.

Logically speaking...

Shouldn't Fugaku be on the battlefield at the front?

After all, almost all of Jonin in the village had gone. Moreover, Fugaku had a crazy heart to kill enemies.

"You are... Aoba!"

Fugaku turned his face slightly and looked at Aoba. His exposed cheeks were flushed. It was obvious that he drank too much.

"???"

The corners of Aoba's mouth twitched slightly.

'Good fellow.'

'So you are drinking here to drown your sorrows!'

'If I had known you would be like this, I would have left just now...'

"What happened?"

Aoba asked in a puzzled tone. When Fugaku was drinking alone here, he was a little puzzled, but he did not have to know why.

"Come, sit down and drink a few cups with brother."

Fugaku shook his head. He did not answer Aoba. Instead, he directly reached out to the table in front of him and took a cup. Then, he poured the sake from the table into the wine cup.

"That... Brother Fugaku... I am not an adult yet... I can't drink..."

Aoba's eyelids jumped. He did not expect to be dragged by Fugaku to drink. This was not what he wanted to do.

Now, the Third Hokage was staring at the Anbu!

As a member of Konohagakure Intelligence Division, he was sitting here drinking with Konoha Military Police Force's future Captain. If other people saw him, they would more or less cause some trouble.

"What are you afraid of!"

There was a hint of displeasure in Fugaku's tone. The dragged tone of his voice was obviously that of an intoxicated person speaking.

After that.

Fugaku directly pushed the wine cup that was filled to the brim to Aoba.

"Aoba!"

"Your Brother Fugaku is Konoha Military Police Force's man!"

"You stay here and drink with your brother!"

"No one dares to catch you!"

"Besides..."

"Even if they catch you, why don't you interrogate yourself!"

Fugaku danced when he spoke. It was as if he couldn't even sit still.

"Brother Fugaku, you're drunk. Why don't I inform Konoha Military Police Force's people to send you back..." The corners of Aoba's mouth twitched slightly, and he couldn't help but give Fugaku a big thumbs up.

'Good fellow!'

'You even said the words that no one would dare to catch me!'

'Although this is the case!'

'But it is not good to say it directly!'

'Besides...'

'What the hell is he torturing himself for?'

On Fugaku's body, Aoba thought of the various incidents he saw on various forums before he transmigrated...

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"I'm not drunk!"

Fugaku suddenly widened his eyes. His dark pupils suddenly fluctuated and almost glowed red.

"I f*cking look down on that bastard Sarutobi Hiruzen now!"

Fugaku suddenly became agitated. As he spoke, he slammed the wine cup in his hand on the table.

Kacha!

Fugaku's wine cup broke in an instant.

Fragments of the wine cup scattered in all directions.

Fortunately, he did not hit anyone.

This wine cup was already empty, and all the sake inside had been drained by Fugaku in one gulp.

"Eh..."

Aoba looked at Fugaku in surprise. He was a little confused as to why the other party had suddenly appeared in such a mood.

'Could it be that he had suffered some grievance at the front lines?'

'It can't be!'

'The Third Hokage did not go to the front line at all!'

'Or...'

'Because of the matter of Gasshi breaking through the main entrance. The Konoha Military Police Force were criticized?'

'But...'

'Shouldn't the one who would be depressed about Konoha Military Police Force being criticized is the Captain, Uchiha Akaru?'

All of a sudden.

Aoba had no idea where Fugaku's anger came from.

Judging from Fugaku's expression...

Those who didn't know would think that the Third Hokage had taken Mikoto from him!

"Shh!"

At this moment, Teuchi raised his right index finger and placed it vertically in front of his mouth, making a silencing gesture.

"You can't talk nonsense!"

"Some people can't just call others names!"

"Remember..."

"Disaster comes from the mouth!"

Teuchi put on an extremely serious expression. He was not joking with Fugaku at all. If others heard what he said just now, Fugaku would be in trouble.

"I just want to scold him!"

The expression on Fugaku's face became distorted. His eyes were full of anger, and he looked like he had been greatly wronged.

"He is a coward!"

Fugaku angrily shouted. His eyes instantly emitted a blood-like red light. Three tomoe suddenly appeared on it. Under the circumstances where he was not acting on his own, he relied on his emotions to open the three tomoe Sharingan with his body's instinctive reaction.

Fugaku picked up the wine cup that he had just poured for Aoba on the table. He raised his hand and poured it into his mouth, directly drinking it.

As this cup of strong wine entered the heart full of sorrow...

Two streams of hot tears flowed down from Fugaku's wide-open eyes.

Tears flowed down from both sides of his nose, sliding down the corner of his mouth, and finally dripping into the wine cup.

This scene.

It directly confused Aoba.

He was completely puzzled.

'What did the Third Hokage do?'

'He was actually so resentful!'

'This was not quite right!'

Aoba remembered that Fugaku still admired the Third Hokage!

It was because of this admiration.

Fugaku gave his second son Uchiha Sasuke the same name as Hiruzen's father, hoping that Sasuke could become a powerful person like the Third Hokage's father...

'Isn't this just a tribute to the Third Hokage's father!'

'This relationship is quite good!'

'Is there some hidden reason?'

'Could it be that when Fugaku called Sasuke son, he wanted the Third Hokage to think that he was calling his father?'
