Reborn in Konoha as the Anbu Torturer

Chapter 335: Real Identity of the Cat-Faced Demon!

Chapter 335: Real Identity of the Cat-Faced Demon!

It was precisely when Hiruzen patted Danzo that Aoba discovered the problem and inspired him to think about it.

In the chaotic environment. Everyone's mood is entangled by escape and pursuit. No one thought so much.

Especially when "bait" was said. Everyone fell into silence.

Even someone like Danzo, who had a lot of tricks and schemes, was attracted by this matter. He lowered his head and held his knees, trembling.

No one noticed these things at all. Everyone's attention was focused on the "bait".

Perhaps, even Tobirama, observing what was happening, did not realize Hiruzen's thoughts.

"This is really a good plan!"

Aoba stared at the diagram he had completed in the book.

According to his deduction. If Hiruzen were a fierce person who dared to sacrifice himself at the critical moment and acted as bait for the entire team to buy time for everyone's lives, then everything would be the same as it was before.

But...

What if Hiruzen had already guessed everything

Then this would be a carefully planned strategy.

When Hiruzen said that he wanted to be the bait, he already knew in his heart that Tobirama would take the initiative to be the bait. This way, no matter how he expressed himself, he would not become the bait to cover their retreat.

If he chose to say this first, he could become the hero in everyone's eyes who was willing to sacrifice himself for his companions!

Not only that.

He could also win Tobirama's trust!

All of this happened just in time!

Just do it again!

But...

Hiruzen was still fearful. After all, nothing was entirely sure, not to mention that the matter of Tobirama covering up the rear was only Hiruzen's speculation. Tobirama had yet to say such words.

Actually, there was not much time at that time. Since Hiruzen said he would be the bait, every second made him feel closer to death.

He first emphasized to everyone that he was the most powerful one. Even if he went, he might still be able to survive. He used this method to vent his anger and secretly told Tobirama that his strength was the strongest among them and could be entrusted with heavy responsibilities.

Then, he saw that Tobirama still had not expressed his opinion yet. He was afraid that his words become certain. If he really became the bait, he would suffer a great loss. Therefore, he quickly patted Danzo and stimulated Danzo from his timid state. After all, he was very clear about Danzo's character. No matter what, he was willing to compete with him, even if it was a matter of sending himself to his death.

Sure enough. It was just as he had expected.

Danzo immediately accepted the mission of sending himself to his death. This made Hiruzen immediately heave a sigh of relief, and he did not snatch it back.

Then, it was time to announce the results of the courage assessment, and Hiruzen won because of this.

"Things are getting more and more interesting!"

The corners of Aoba's mouth slightly curled up behind the mask. He did not expect to see such details in Danzo's memory.

He had long known that Hiruzen was not such a simple person. However, he did not expect that he would start having his calculations at that point in time.

For a moment, Aoba decided to take a closer look at Danzo's memories during his free time these past few days.

What kind of personality was Hiruzen exactly?

It was still very important to him. After all, Minato still had to take over the position of Hokage in the future.

He should have a basic understanding of these things. Moreover, the feeling of being able to read memories and dig out those secrets greatly satisfied Aoba's curiosity.

Dong Dong...

At this time.

There was a knock on Aoba's iron door.

"He's here."

Aoba had already expected such a scene in his mind. He immediately walked to the door and opened it. He just happened to see Eaton standing at the door.

"Aoba, you are here." Eaton's eyes were slightly deep. He was now quite disappointed with the problems exposed when treating Danzo.

"Brother Eaton, this is not the place to talk. Let's go to your office!" Aoba immediately came out of the dormitory and looked around. After making sure that there was no one in the corridor, he heaved a sigh of relief.

"Okay!"

Eaton nodded. He came directly to find Aoba so early because he had a lot of things to say in his heart.

"Come with me!"

Eaton immediately turned around and walked in the direction of his office. He kept his eyes on the front, and his pace was much faster than usual.

Aoba silently followed behind Eaton. At this time, he did not say anything. He had expected that Eaton would rush over in the morning, but when Eaton came, he was still a little cautious and vigilant.

After all, this timing was too close. Hiruzen must still be monitoring Eaton, wanting to find him through Eaton. After all, this was the most direct clue to seeing him, the mysterious medical ninja introduced by Eaton.

Then that person must be someone that Eaton knew. Only, it was unknown how much information they had on Konohagakure Intelligence Division's side. It was unknown how many people knew that he was practicing medical ninjutsu.

Because of this, Eaton wanted to have a chat with Aoba. Aoba also wanted to have a chat with Eaton.

The two walked the path quickly until they reached Eaton's office. When the two of them walked in. Eaton firmly closed the office door.

"Hu..."

Only then did Eaton let out a sigh of relief. He had been listening nervously, afraid that he would be discovered by the people staring at him.

"Aoba, how did you escape? You scared me to death last night." Eaton immediately began to ask Aoba with concern.

"I used the shadow clone to hide my whereabouts." Aoba began to take out the excuse he had prepared beforehand to deal with Eaton.

"A shadow clone?" Eaton was stunned for a moment. He narrowed his eyes and stared at Aoba. This kid actually knew a shadow clone.

"Hahaha, Brother Eaton, you don't know about this. After I became Tsunade-sensei's student, Tsunade-sensei treated me and restored my body to that of a normal person. Then, with my recent training, I began to have today's appearance gradually. This also allowed me to use medical ninjutsu and save Danzo-sama. I could also use Kage Bunshin no Jutsu(Shadow Clone Technique) to escape the pursuit of those Anbu." Aoba began to make these words clear. After all, he had been paying attention to one detail. After he became Tsunade's student, every time Eaton wanted to pat his shoulder, he would stop his hand in the middle and put it down.

"So that's how it is."

Eaton nodded. He had already guessed that Tsunade would treat Aoba's body. It was impossible for a dignified Konoha Sannin student to be weaker than a patient.

"But how did you leave using shadow clone?" Eaton asked again. His question just now was not to ask how Aoba could use the shadow clone but how Aoba escaped using the shadow clone.

"After Danzo-sama's treatment, I do not have much physical strength left. When Brother Eaton went to the Hokage Building, I immediately used a shadow clone and asked him to dash to the left, pulling out all the Anbu hiding in the dark!"

Aoba explained to Eaton. When he said this, Eaton nodded repeatedly. He always felt that Aoba was very logical, and he was even more curious about what happened then.

"When they rushed to chase after my shadow clone, I remembered their approximate location. Then I created another shadow clone and let the shadow clone dush to the right after leaving the door open. In this way, those remaining Anbu would have no choice but chased."

Aoba continued to talk about what happened at that time, but only 80% of these things were authentic, and he made up the remaining part, but it was impossible to find the wrong place from these genuine parts.

The reason was very simple.

Eaton must have investigated the information about Anbu pursuing Aoba. He definitely knew about the three shadow clones he created.

Therefore, the details of this part should be true. In places that the Anbu did not know, there was no way to confirm its authenticity. He could only choose to believe what Aoba had said.

"Just as they were about to cough up, my true body immediately used the Henge no Jutsu(Transformation Technique) to mix in with them. I didn't give them any time to think about whether or not someone had mixed in. I immediately had another shadow clone I created beforehand run out of the main entrance, again attracting everyone's attention." Aoba slowly explained.

"So you successfully ran away?" The corners of Eaton's mouth slightly curled up. He was delighted with Aoba's performance.

"Oh, that's not it. I didn't run away immediately because I knew that I would definitely be noticed if I ran away at that time. Therefore, I was still mixed in with the Anbu. I ran away during the tracking mission with them." Aoba said with a smile.

"As expected of Tsunade-sama's student!"

Eaton directly gives a thumb up at Aoba. From the time he wore the mask to treating Danzo to the time when he escaped, he felt that Aoba had a very rigorous and detailed plan. Moreover, he did not panic in the face of danger and planned everything very well. This level of stability would not be unworthy of Tsunade's name.

"Aoba, I happen to have something to ask you. When we finished treating Danzo-sama, you directly pulled me away and told me not to ask anything. What does that mean?" Eaton immediately asked in a low voice.

This matter was like a thorn in his heart. If he did not figure it out. He could not accept it. Because of this, he had been holding it in for half a night just to come here and ask Aoba what had happened at that time.

"Didn't Koharu-sama tell you?" Aoba said with deep meaning. In Eaton's memory, Aoba saw that the other party had a little bit of pursuing the truth, so he felt there might be a chance to use it.

Of course, this did not mean that Eaton pursued the truth with all his feelings.

If that were the case. It was also impossible for him to reach this point. Eaton was only willing to investigate matters related to him.

This matter was not only about Aoba; it was also his matter. It was a matter that they worked together to treat Danzo's injuries.

"Koharu-sama said you poisoned Danzo-sama!" Eaton said coldly.

"Brother Eaton, what do you think?" Aoba asked with deep meaning.

"Of course, I don't believe it! This is not good for you and me at all! Besides, didn't you already tell me that Danzo-sama is not poisoned?" Eaton immediately expressed his stance.

"Hahahahaha!"

Aoba suddenly laughed and then nodded to Eaton. Now he was sure that Eaton had asked Koharu and the others yesterday.

The plan in his mind was being carried out step by step.

"Since Brother Eaton wants to know, then I have nothing to hide from you!"

Aoba slowly opened his mouth and began to talk about what had happened that day. This time, it could be said that the gods had reverted to their original state, and there was no change at all. After all, all of this had indeed happened.

"At that time, I tried my best to treat Danzo-sama in the room, and in the end, I was successful. If nothing unexpected happened, Danzo-sama would be able to walk in a few months. However, as I moved Danzo-sama onto the bed, Koharu-sama moved closer to my position, directly blocking my way. If I didn't think of a reason to stop her, I might be in danger!" Aoba explained directly.

"Do you mean that Koharu-sama wants to use force on you?" Eaton suddenly widened his eyes, and a touch of horror flashed in his eyes.

"Brother Eaton, you misunderstand. Koharu-sama wants to take off my mask and see what my real identity is." Aoba's face was suddenly covered with black lines. He didn't know whether Eaton said was what he understood, but no matter how he heard it, it felt strange.

"That's what I meant. Koharu-sama wants to take off your mask and see who you are. This time, I am quite disappointed with Konohagakure's higher-ups. They have done a lot of wrong things. I can't ignore it!" Eaton said in a low voice.

"Brother Eaton, don't tell anyone this thing." Aoba immediately warned. Right now, Eaton's position was still indispensable. Otherwise, no one would come to protect him.

"I know what to do about this matter! If I'm not mistaken, Aoba, you gave this antidote formula to Sunagakure's poison to Koharu-sama, so you can leave by saying that you poisoned Danzo-sama. Moreover, if I'm not wrong, this antidote formula should have been entrusted to you by Tsunade-sama to give to the village! " Eaton said with a smile. His eyes seemed to have seen through everything.

"That's right. When Tsunade-sensei left, he gave me the antidote she had developed and asked me to give it to the village at the right time. At that time, there was no conflict between the village and Sunagakure, so I was not in a hurry to take it out. Now it is the Third Ninja World War, so I think it is just right to take it out, so I take advantage of it." Aoba nodded and said. Now, he had successfully connected all these reasons. This made everything make sense.

"Aoba, you made a great contribution to the village this time. The village has wronged you and did not let you get the treatment you deserve. I apologize to you on behalf of the village!" Eaton immediately bowed to Aoba. He knew how unhappy and unwilling he was, so Aoba might be more emotional than him.

"Brother Eaton, you and I don't need to say this. This time, I have a question to ask you!" Aoba waved his hand and said. He had no interest in being a great contributor, so he didn't care what kind of treatment he was given.

"Ask!" Eaton immediately nodded and stared at Aoba. He had a feeling that he would tell Aoba everything he knew. He wanted to make himself feel more comfortable in this way.

"Brother Eaton, how many people know about me practicing medical ninjutsu?" Aoba immediately asked the most important thing.

"I knew you would ask this question." Eaton stared at Aoba and said, "In fact, strictly speaking, other than me, no one knows that you can use medical ninjutsu. People only know that the cat-faced demon has mastered some medical ninjutsu!"

"Does no one know that I am the cat-faced demon?" Aoba asked Eaton.

"It's not like you don't know how low-key you are. Only a few people know that you are in Konohagakure Intelligence Division and you don't have any friends. People only know that Yamanaka Aoba is weak and useless. The cat-faced demon is a terrifying existence, but they don't know that cat-faced demon is you, Yamanaka Aoba. Otherwise, their beliefs would have collapsed." Eaton said seriously.

He was very sure about this.

To be precise, he was not investigating Aoba but the cat-faced demon. However, he later found out that the cat-faced demon was Aoba.

Now that he thought about it, it was a little magical.

It had been more than a year since Aoba came to Konohagakure Intelligence Division, yet he was so low-key that it was as if he had never been here, and he didn't even have a single friend!

"Let me think..."

Aoba pursed his lips, and his brain spun rapidly. In the end, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

"Since everyone doesn't know who the cat-faced demon is, then let's give the cat-faced demon a real identity!"
