"No... No..."

When the merchant leader heard Aoba's words, he instantly started to panic.

Right now, he was very regretful.

If he had known that these people were so stupid, he would not have brought them out, especially at such a critical time.

Right now, they hadn't done anything yet!

They hadn't even gotten any information.

It could be said that they had died before they even came out. They were directly captured and brought into this Konohagakure Intelligence Division. He had just gotten the chance to be released, and he had been sent back by those fools.

Now...

The situation had completely changed, and the precious first time had been lost just like that.

The merchant leader immediately felt annoyed. His mood became very depressed. He no longer knew what the situation would be like.

As for the other merchants, they felt a lot of dissatisfaction in their hearts after hearing Aoba's words. They instinctively wanted to argue, but after seeing their companion who had his hand cut off, they forcibly suppressed the words in their hearts.

Now they only wanted to know.

How exactly did this torture ninja call the cat-faced demon to want to deal with them?

This was not their so-called "first time".

What kind of danger would they encounter?

Even the surrounding prisoners who had been tied up in the compartment looked at Aoba curiously. This was the first time they had come here. They had never experienced the cat-faced demon's abuse before.

Right now, they all want to know it.

What kind of scene would it be?

Aoba met everyone's gazes, and his gaze landed on the Country of Water merchants.

There were a total of seven merchants, including the leader. They piled up in the compartment, making the compartment especially bloated. This originally small space became even narrower.

"Let's start now."

Aoba's voice sounded indifferent, and he directly walked to the innermost part of the compartment and raised his hand to take out a board.

This board usually leans on the wall inside the compartment. If they did not carefully examine the room, they wouldn't have been able to see it. Now that Aoba had picked up the board, it instantly attracted everyone's attention. They had never seen such a thing before and did not know what it was.

Soon.

Aoba took the board to the middle of the compartment.

In the relatively narrow space. He gently pushed the board forward, and the board began to tilt.

Boom!

There was a dull sound.

The board directly fell to the ground, showing the other side to everyone.

"Hiss..."

When the people in the compartment saw this scene, they couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. Everyone widened their eyes, and their eyes were full of fear.

This was too terrifying!

Their eyes were focused on the board, and everyone could clearly see it. The top of the board was densely packed with brightly shining protruding nails. The length of these nails was not very long. Each of them looked only a few centimeters long. Even if they stabbed a person, it would only cause flesh wounds and would not be fatal.

But...

This kind of terrifying torture equipment was actually taken out so easily.

As expected of the cat-faced demon!

The eyes of the prisoners who were tied up changed again and again. They no longer dared to imagine what kind of terrifying torture they would face if they were the Country of Water merchants.

"Why don't you guys go up on your own?"

Aoba looked at the merchants. A smile appeared on the face behind the mask. Then, he continued, "Or should I help you up?"

"..."

When Aoba said this, the merchants were all dumbfounded. No one dared to respond, and they were completely in a state of silence.

Even though they had already thought of this in their hearts.

But...

They still hoped that they would be chased out by this cat-faced demon just like earlier so that they could avoid this disaster, but that was not the case anymore.

"It seems that you want me to help you!"

Aoba looked at these motionless merchants, and a touch of coldness flashed in his eyes.

If these people were Konohagakure's people. Then he would pay attention to his actions. Moreover, he would use medical ninjutsu to treat their injuries to a certain degree.

But these people were the merchants of the Country of Water. Since he had already let them go once. He would not let them go a second time. He needs to teach them a lesson to let them know the pain.

In the future, they would be able to realize the danger of this matter clearly and would not continue to do this.

It was precisely because of this problem. Aoba did not intend to treat them in any form.

Then.

Aoba took a step forward.

He suddenly raised his hand and grabbed the nearest merchant. In front of everyone, he lifted this person up from the ground.

In the next moment.

Aoba directly threw this person toward the board full of nails.

This made the people who saw this scene all have other thoughts in their hearts. Some people even don't dare to look.

"AHHHHHH!"

The merchant's body hit the iron nails on the board, and he immediately screamed loudly. The sharp nails directly pierced into his body.

Such a scene.

It was reflected in the eyes of the prisoners waiting for interrogation. They instantly felt a great visual impact, which was not very good.

"Hiss..."

Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air again. Everyone felt fear.

After that, Aoba did not wait for everyone to react. He threw another merchant over.

In a split second.

Miserable screams rang out once more.

...

Half a day passed quickly.

During this period of time. Aoba was carrying out intense torture with these merchants from the Country of Water. Almost every single one of these merchants did not have any complete parts on their bodies.

However...

They were still alive. They had only suffered skin and flesh torture.

Everyone shouted until their throats were hoarse. It also reflects that sentence. Even if they shouted until their throats were broken, no one would come to save them.

This feeling of helplessness and despair invaded all of their bodies and souls, making them not know what to do at all.

Now, every one of them regretted speaking ill of the cat-faced demon outside Konohagakure Intelligence Division's compartment.

Moreover, they clearly understood why the cat-faced demon was called the "Cat-faced Demon".

It was truly too terrifying!

Each and every one of them had to endure a torment that they did not know when would end.

They wanted to confess. However, they had nothing to confess. Not only that, this cat-faced demon did not need them to confess because he did not ask anything.

They could understand that during this period of time, the cat-faced demon only wanted to torture them mercilessly, destroy their will, and make the surrounding prisoners who were tied up fall into deep fear.

"Now you can go."

Aoba stood in the middle of the compartment. He still maintained his posture when they first met. His tone was indifferent, and his eyes were cold. There was not even any exhaustion in them like a torturer robot, but what he did was completely beyond everyone's imagination.

"Yes!"

When the merchant leader heard Aoba say this again, he immediately felt like he had heard a voice from heaven.

This voice was so wonderful. It symbolized liberation and freedom.

The merchant leader couldn't care less about the other merchants and quickly ran out of the compartment instantly.

After running out of the compartment. He directly ran out of the corridor. No matter where he went. Even if he was pulled closer to other compartments, he did not care. As long as he was not here. He could bear it!

The merchant leader had never felt the pressure of death at such a close distance.

During this period of torture. His feelings were still very clear. If he experienced it one more time, he would definitely die. He absolutely could not return!

The merchant leader did not want to be tricked by these pig-like teammates again.

After the merchant leader ran out, the other merchants did not hesitate at all and ran out one after another.

Soon.

Aoba's compartment became spacious again.

At this time, Aoba looked at the remaining prisoners.

Earlier, he had just read the memories of these people using a piece of paper.

Now, he was very clear about what these people had done. No one had committed any major crimes, but no one could stand these small things.

"The purpose of Konohagakure's establishment is to protect the people in the village and let the people in the village love each other like a big family."

Aoba's voice slowly sounded.

He was very clear.

Not to mention this kind of big family that was formed together. Even if it was a real family that was related by blood.

Different families had different problems. Even blood relatives were the same, not to mention these people who did not even have blood relations.

"I hope that you will control yourselves."

Aoba thought for a while and did not say anything more. He had no way to say that he could really convince others with his mouth and stop them from committing crimes.

He did not have the ability and also did not want to waste his breath. In short, don't hesitate to commit crimes. If you come, I will give you a punishment that can make you remember for life.

People often say that they forget about the pain when it becomes a scar. That was because it was not painful enough!

Aoba felt that as long as it was painful enough, even if the scar were healed, they would still remember it.

"Now, I will give each of you a confession scroll. You write all the things you have done on it. I will check the confession scroll you have written in turn. If you miss anything, you will regret it."

Aoba's dark eyes passed through the cat-faced mask and focused on the faces of these waiting prisoners. He swept across each person's face one by one, and his eyes emitted a cold light, causing everyone who was targeted by him to feel an incomparably powerful pressure.

"Yes!"

The waiting prisoners present immediately responded after hearing Aoba's words, and each of their faces revealed a relieved expression.

After a whole afternoon of torture...

Although they were not the ones being tortured. However, they looked very tired. Now they knew that it was finally their turn to leave this place.

For a moment.

No one dared to be like the Country of Water merchants. They had already silently vowed in their hearts. They would not come here a second time. Otherwise, they would be like those merchants and suffer terrible torture.

Aoba looked at the expressions of the crowd.

He understood that these monkeys were really shocked by the chicken he had just killed.

Then, he began to walk toward the shelf not far behind him. He took out confession scrolls from the shelf.

Aoba walked to the front of every criminal who was waiting for interrogation and untied the ropes that were tied to their bodies. Then he gives a confession scroll to each of them.

Soon.

Aoba sent all the confession scrolls down.

After receiving the confession scroll, these prisoners wrote down their crimes on it one after another.

About ten minutes later.

Aoba collected all the confession scrolls and, after looking through them one by one. It was confirmed that no one dared to miss out on some places that would lead to serious punishment.

Then, he opened the compartment door and called over the guards who were guarding not far away. Finally, he handed the confession scrolls to the guards along with the prisoners. After all of this was done, Aoba slowly let out a sigh of relief.

"It's time to get off work."

Aoba smiled and walked directly toward the Anbu dormitory.

When he was almost halfway there. He happened to see a man in a black trench coat rushing over. This man was wearing sunglasses. He can't see the specific changes in his eyes.

When Aoba saw this person, he immediately stood still. The person walking in front of him was Konohagakure Intelligence Division Captain Morino Eaton.

"Brother Eaton?"

When Aoba saw Eaton, he immediately greeted him.

He knows Eaton's route. At this time, he was coming over. Basically, he was here to find him.

If that was the case...

There was no need for Eaton to say anything. Aoba had already guessed the reason why the latter had come to find him.

Now, Eaton had nothing to do with him. He just wanted to ask if the story of Teacher Bai of the Ninja School had been updated.

"Aoba, I am looking for you. This is not the place to talk. Come to the office with me."

After seeing Aoba, Eaton directly nodded to Aoba and then turned to walk back.

It was just as Aoba had guessed. It was basically the story of Teacher Bai of the Ninja School. As long as Aoba heard Eaton that they should talk in the office, then he will associate the office with a perverted uncle.

He faintly felt that Eaton not doing anything good in the office. After all, that place was too hidden. Normally, no one would disturb Eaton. It was simply an excellent place.

"Yes."

Aoba still responded and followed behind Eaton, walking in the direction of Eaton's office.

Ten minutes later.

Eaton brought Aoba to his office.

"Sit."

Eaton gestured to Aoba in the office. After he said this, he sat directly on the chair behind the desk.

"Okay."

Aoba nodded and sat down directly. He did not ask or say anything. He just quietly waited for Eaton to say anything.

Eaton looked at Aoba and then casually took off the sunglasses on his face. He crossed his fingers and placed them on his chin. His entire face looked particularly serious.

"Aoba, have you updated it?"

Eaton asked directly. It could be said that he had completely ignored any pleasantries.

When Aoba heard Eaton's words. The corners of his mouth trembled slightly. He was stunned for a moment. Although he had already expected such a dialogue to happen, when these words really came out, Aoba could not help but sigh.

Brother Eaton!

I have already given so many chapters...

How long has it been since I gave it to you?

Why did you want more of it now?

Aoba faintly wanted to persuade Eaton to restrain himself a little, but he didn't know how to say these words.

"It hasn't been updated, right?"

After seeing Aoba stunned for a moment, Eaton instinctively thought that Aoba had no stock left in his hands. After all, judging from the time. It was impossible.

Of course, Eaton did not know that after Aoba was called away by Danzo.

He did not complete the mission. Instead, he wrote a complete chapter in the dark room.

"Actually, I came to find you this time not to urge you to update but to ask you something very important!"

After saying this, Eaton's eyes suddenly became very serious and looked a lot more serious than usual.

"What is it?" Aoba asked indifferently.

"Did you tell the story of Teacher Bai of the Ninja School to others?"

When Eaton said this, his entire face changed.

That feeling was like...

It was as if he had discovered that his wife had someone outside! His entire being was extremely solemn. The change in his expression and his attitude caused Aoba to be stunned.

Could it be...

Shouldn't good things be shared by everyone?

Was there a need to hide it?

Aoba didn't mind sharing the story of Teacher Bai of the Ninja School at all. The reason why he didn't show it to the ninjas earlier was that the signature on the book was Fugaku's name.

If there wasn't such a thing.

It wouldn't be a problem to spread it to them at that time.

After all...

Aoba was a person from the modern era. He was born a good person and liked sharing. But before Aoba could answer, Eaton spoke again.

"Aoba, let me tell you, this is not a small matter, but a very serious matter. If you reveal this manuscript to others in advance, once it spreads out, it will affect the sales of the follow-up publications."

Eaton said righteously. Although he said so, he did not think so in his heart.

This kind of excuse. It gave Aoba a very strange feeling. It was as if he saw his girlfriend wearing very sexy clothes and was about to go out. Then, he stopped her and asked her to change her clothes. The reason was that he was afraid that she would get cold!

"Uh..."

After hearing what Eaton said, Aoba realized that the current Eaton was not here to urge him to update but to prevent him from showing the manuscript to others.

Did this matter spread so quickly?

He had just promised to copy the first chapter for Anbu, who was from the Yamanaka Clan.

He hadn't copied it yet.

Did it spread out first?
