"No problem!"

A smile bloomed on Eaton's face as he nodded repeatedly at Aoba.

"You still don't trust me!"

"Look at my collection of books!"

"I didn't dirty any of them!"

"I was just afraid that this only book would be lost. After I finish copying the first part, I will send it to your compartment."

Eaton patted his chest and promised. When he thought about how he could take this only book to admire it alone, he felt that every cell in his body was excited.

"Hahahaha, good."

Aoba nodded at Eaton, then got up and prepared to leave.

"Brother Eaton, take your time. I'm going to work."

After that.

Aoba walked towards the office door.

He didn't want to stay here too long.

After all, there was no shadow clone outside to do the mission.

There was no meaning in staying for too long.

It was better to take care of Kirigakure Ninja, who had been locked up in his compartment for the whole night.

Moreover.

He had to leave some space for Eaton to play!

"I won't send you off!"

Eaton quickly took out a delicate book from his desk, picked up a pen, and began to read the story in Aoba's book.

Aoba pushed open the office door.

He left directly.

He walked towards his compartment.

Not long after.

Aoba arrived in his compartment.

Because he got up early in the morning, and even if he went to Eaton's office, it was still very early.

"Did you sleep well last night?"

After entering his compartment, Aoba immediately looked at the young man who was tied to the pillar.

He was wearing a cat face mask.

No one could see his expression clearly.

"You..."

This Kirigakure ninja's face was ashen, his lips were slightly dry, and he already had symptoms of dehydration.

He felt like he was about to die.

However, it was very difficult for him to even faint.

He didn't know why.

It was as if he had been injected with stimulants.

He always felt that this interrogator ninja had done something to him.

"You must be hungry."

Aoba looked at this Kirigakure ninja and smiled. He said, "Don't worry. I will give you some food later. I promise you that you won't die."

"I confess..."

This Kirigakure ninja had already realized that this interrogator ninja in front of him was not interrogating him at all. It was completely torturing him.

However.

He still wanted to try.

He did not want to stay here any longer.

It was too painful.

He already had a deep shadow over this kind of place.

Just last night.

He had already thought it through.

As long as he could escape this calamity.

He would return to Kirigakure and no longer go to the other villages to be a spy. Especially Konohagakure, the Konohagakure Intelligence Division here was too scary.

"What do you want to confess?"

Aoba stared at this Kirigakure ninja with deep meaning. The corner of his mouth behind the cat face mask curled up slightly and he assumed a listening posture.

"I should not have stolen things. I admit that I stole the military ration pill. Yesterday, I told you the location of the military ration pill. I am willing to accept all punishment." This ninja said in a tearful tone. He was willing to do anything as long as he did not stay in Konohagakure Intelligence Division.

"I know everything you said. Is there anything else?" Aoba asked lightly. His tone was not very friendly. He clearly found that this Kirigakure ninja still did not want to be honest.

"The rest..."

There was no hesitation on Kirigakure's face. He shook his head and said, "No more."

"Then you can continue to stay."

From the memory of this Kirigakure ninja, Aoba had already seen what kind of brainwashing training this Kirigakure ninja had received. It could be said that he was the kind of person who was secretly used as a spy to be absolutely loyal to the village.

He would rather sacrifice himself.

He would not reveal any information!

It was almost impossible to pry anything out of such a person's mouth.

At this time, a Konohagakure Intelligence Division's Sensory Ninjas would read his memories.

However.

Not everyone would just read someone's memories.

So there were still plenty of spies who can roam the village in various disguises because of these.

After Aoba said this, he no longer paid any attention to Kirigakure's ninja.

About half an hour later.

The prison guard leader sent four people in one breath and tied them all to the wooden pillar.

Aoba repeated the previous steps.

He read the memories of these suspects in turn. He then began to abuse this Kirigakure ninja to intimidate the people who made mistakes in the village so that they would not dare to enter Konohagakure Intelligence Division easily.

...

In the blink of an eye.

Three days passed.

Aoba repeated the same thing every day.

It's just that compared to before, he has always attacked the same person in his compartment.

It was that Kirigakure ninja.

The other prisoners that were sent over could be said to be completely unharmed.

...

Another day, early morning.

When Aoba came to his compartment this time, he directly brought breakfast to this Kirigakure ninja.

He placed the breakfast in front of this Kirigakure ninja and untied him.

After a few days of the devastation.

This Kirigakure ninja already had no strength left.

Let alone breaking free.

Even if he opened the compartment's door now, he would not have the strength to escape.

"Can I ask why?"

This Kirigakure ninja grabbed the rice and stuffed it into his mouth. Right now, he only had his last bit of willpower left. He did not want to die here.

"No," Aoba said indifferently.

"..."

This Kirigakure ninja was dumbfounded. He had never seen such a strange person in his life.

If he had known earlier, he would not have asked this.

He then began to ask different questions.

This Kirigakure Ninja immediately opened his eyes wide. He looked at Aoba and asked directly.

"Why are you only targeting me?"

He had been holding back this question for a long time. He did not feel that he had exposed anything. He was just an ordinary person like everyone else. Why did he have to bear so much? Others only have their head touched and were frightened.

This was really unfair!

Even if it were to kill the chicken to warn the monkey!

Why was he a chicken?

This question had troubled him for several days. If he did not ask, he would not be willing to die.

"So this is the question."

A smile appeared on Aoba's face behind the mask. Because of the smile, his eyes turned into curved shapes. Through the eyes of the mask, they focused on this Kirigakure ninja.

"Actually..."

"It's very simple!"

"Because you are the chosen child!"

Aoba said indifferently. Then, he no longer paid any attention to this Kirigakure ninja. After tying him up again, he entered his daily state.

...

At this time.

It was about five days after Kumogakure's envoy arrived at Konohagakure.

Kumogakure had already received the information that had been sent back.

Country of Lightning.

On a mountain peak shrouded in clouds.

In Raikage office.

The Third Raikage Ay sat on the largest chair in the middle of the Raikage office, wearing a white vest, which highlighted the brown muscles on his body.

His brown hair was spread behind him and extended all the way to his waist. There was a tattoo with the word "lightning" on his right arm. His serious look gave people a very dangerous feeling.

"Is there any news from Konoha?"

The Third Raikage asked in a low, muffled voice. His voice was very loud and it sounded like thunder. It shook the eardrums of the others in the office.

"Reporting to Third Raikage-sama!"

The one who spoke was a dark-skinned ninja. He stood in front of Ay, his face cold and expressionless.

"The envoy group lost contact after entering Konohagakure]. From then on, I immediately went to Konohagakure] to inquire about the news."

This ninja began to talk about these things.

"After a few days of investigation, I got very accurate information..."

"The Third Hokage ambushed the envoy group led by Hari-sama, and now they have been completely wiped out. Only Hari-sama is still alive!"

"All the staff officers of Country of Lightning have been killed!"

"I found the wreckage left by the wild beasts outside the barrier to the south of Konohagakure. It can be roughly determined from the clothes that it is from our Kumogakure. It is likely Gasshi-sama who has gone missing."

"According to the information, I can confirm right now..."

When the ninja said this, he suddenly paused and stared at Third Raikage.

"Third Raikage-sama, Konohagakure should have launched a war against our Kumogakure!"

When the ninja said this.

The people in the Raikage office were shocked.

None of them had expected that the team personally led by Hari to Konohagakure would suffer such a thing.

"Konohagakure is the first to start a war!"

The expression on Third Raikage's face became angry, and his round eyes flashed with a cold light.

"I didn't expect that the Third Hokage is so brave!"

"Konohagakure lost its vitality in the war with Amegakure a few years ago and has not recovered yet. Now it dares to challenge our Kumogakure!"

"Ahahahahahaha!"

When the Third Raikage finished speaking, he immediately laughed aloud and stood up.

"Pass down my order."

"Half an hour later."

"All the Jonin teams in Kumogakure will gather."

"Prepare for battle!"

"We have to rescue Hari, who is trapped in Konohagakure!"

Third Raikage shouted loudly. His voice was like a loud bell. Everyone around him could feel his aura.

"Yes!"

The people in the Raikage office immediately responded, and then they quickly dispersed to inform the different Jonin teams.

At this time.

They all understood a very important matter.

The Third Ninja World War began!
