Chapter 571: You Have to Explain It!
Reborn in Konoha as the Anbu Torturer Chapter 571 You Have to Explain It!
Aoba did not fully understand Black Zetsu's mind, even though he had already guessed that Black Zetsu was going to find Nagato when he saw Black Zetsu leave.
However.
This was only a guess.
He was not completely sure about this matter.
Only.
He did not expect this.
Konan actually directly said Nagato's name.
Aoba was silent.
His silence seemed to be putting pressure on Black Zetsu, but in fact, it was something else. He didn't know it. After all, it involved Black Zetsu's own behavior.
He originally wanted to make a further test.
However, he never expected that Konan would speak first. Fortunately, he was completely right. Otherwise, it would have been a bit troublesome to make a comeback later.
Because of this.
The way he appeared now was like he was supporting Konan making Black Zetsu a little pressure.
All of a sudden.
Black Zetsu fell into silence again. He looked up at Konan and then looked at Aoba. At this time, it was also the first time he saw the true appearance of this so-called "uncle", which was Toneri's appearance.
Now he was a little confused about what kind of attitude the other party had, and it was precisely because of this that he did not dare to speak rashly.
"What did you say to Nagato?!"
Konan glared at Black Zetsu fiercely. From Black Zetsu's expression, she vaguely felt that the other party seemed to have said something special to Nagato. However, she did not know what level their conversation had reached.
As soon as she said this.
Black Zetsu's already extremely black face turned even darker
At this time, Black Zetsu did not dare to speak lightly. His orange eyes looked at Aoba who was beside Konan. There was a hint of unwillingness in his eyes, but he hid it very well.
In Black Zetsu's eyes.
Aoba just stood there and did not say a word, but for him, the more his so-called "uncle" did not speak, the more nervous he was.
Instead, he hoped that Aoba could say more.
Even if it was some more ruthless words.
This way, his heart would feel better.
It was this kind of silence that made him have no confidence and not know what to do at all.
Damn it!
Black Zetsu cursed silently in his heart!
He had thought that it was an opportunity at that time so he went out to find Nagato, but after he found Nagato, he thought of a better plan. After confirming that Nagato had not awakened the Rinnegan, he decisively gave up Nagato.
Now that he looked back at it.
Going out was not beneficial to him at all.
Instead, his going out was exposed.
It can be said that he shot himself in the foot and caused problems, which seemed to be self-defeating!
It was too hateful!
Black Zetsu did not know how to defend himself. He felt that he had done something very meaningless, and it would be better to do nothing at all!
After all, his actions had already violated Toneri's requirements. So now, he could only say some words.
"I really didn't say anything..."
Black Zetsu defended feebly. Even he himself didn't believe what he said. Then after a moment of hesitation, he began to add.
"En..."
"That..."
"I told Nagato..."
"I know where you are..."
"But I didn't do anything!"
"I really didn't do anything!"
"I didn't bring him here!"
"I..."
Black Zetsu stared at Konan as he spoke. To be precise, he was staring at Aoba who was beside Konan. He was constantly feeling the changes in Aoba's emotions. These changes were very important to him.
He was able to change his tune so many times in a row.
Black Zetsu secretly looked in Aoba's direction.
Coincidentally, Aoba was also looking at Black Zetsu.
Their gazes instantly met.
The moment their gazes met, Black Zetsu immediately shifted his gaze away, and the pressure in his heart increased.
Aoba, on the other hand, had a completely different feeling.
He suddenly realized that Konan was indeed a very talented person. He didn't know whether it was the interrogation temperament she inspired after meeting Black Zetsu, or whether she had gained experience in the Akatsuki organization that had not yet entered the right track. In short, he felt that Konan's temperament had become better and better.
She already had the style of a big sister!
"Sigh..."
After Black Zetsu met Aoba's gaze, he knew that he still could not avoid this problem. He could only bite the bullet and press forward. This feeling was too problematic.
"Because..."
Black Zetsu really did not know how to smooth things over. He lowered his eyes and stared at the ground with his orange eyes. He did not look at Konan and Aoba's eyes.
"I met Nagato in the Land of Rain."
"That's why I think he's in the Land of Rain."
"But I didn't know where he ran around after that..."
"I don't know about that!"
Black Zetsu began to deliberately guide the topic to other places. After all, he had no way to say more about such things. If he continued, even he himself did not know how things would develop.
"Then... why did you go to see Nagato?"
Konan did not give Black Zetsu any time to catch his breath. After Black Zetsu said the last word, she immediately added.
Not only that.
She did not continue to dwell on the topic just now.
Instead, she focused on her new question.
This sudden question once again caught Black Zetsu off guard. After all, Black Zetsu was still immersed in how to explain where Nagato had gone.
Actually.
This question.
It was the question that Konan wanted to ask the most.
The questions she asked earlier were the foreshadowing and cover-up of the question she was asking now.
Through Aoba, Konan successfully believed that Nagato was a member of the Otsutsuki Clan. She also understood that the reason Black Zetsu went to find Nagato was most likely because Nagato was a member of the Otsutsuki Clan.
Because of this.
Her thoughts of Black Zetsu became even worse!
After all, this black-looking person was Kaguya's son. He was tentatively a member of the Otsutsuki Clan, but he was full of hostility toward the Otsutsuki clansmen. This kind of thing made her extremely angry at this kind of person who did not value family ties.
Konan told herself in her heart that she must find out why Black Zetsu went to look for Nagato. This was very important to her.
"I..."
Black Zetsu was stunned again. He didn't know how many times he had been stunned. He was a little overwhelmed by these questions. After all, no matter how he answered, there seemed to be a big problem. It would all result in him betraying his so-called "uncle".
"Alright... I'll say it!"
Black Zetsu's orange eyes turned. When he was interrogated by Konan, his head quickly turned and he found some words that he could say smoothly.
"I did go to meet Nagato!"
"That's because I already knew Nagato a long time ago!"
"So after I saw you..."
"I was going to tell Nagato where you were and tell him not to worry..."
"But I know this is not right!"
"So I came back without doing anything!"
"It can't be said that I did something I shouldn't have done..."
Black Zetsu spread out his hands and made a helpless gesture. What he said was not entirely true, but his words could indeed easily fool others.
"Wait!"
However.
Konan once again keenly caught the loophole in Black Zetsu's words.
"You said that you know Nagato a long time ago..."
"How?"
"You have to explain it!"
Konan narrowed her eyes slightly. She felt that she was extremely close to the truth she wanted to know.
