CH 222

After Aoba threatened the four of them, they had already confirmed that Aoba was the rumored cat-faced demon.

Everyone's heart instantly skipped a beat.

They all realized.

Their luck was too bad!

...

After Aoba said that, he did not say anything else. Instead, he left the four of them here.

There was nothing to talk about.

Moreover, there was no benefit in dealing with it too quickly.

That way, after they left, they would be able to realize their mistake and change their ways truly.

Aoba sat on the chair.

He slowly closed his eyes.

He went back to Rentaro's memories to ensure that he missed nothing.

Gradually.

The prison guards came in again.

This time, they brought three more people and tied them to the wooden pillar.

At this time.

There were already seven people gathered in the compartment.

"We can start the slaughter now."

Aoba immediately opened his eyes, got up from his chair, and walked toward the few prisoners waiting for the interrogation.

Immediately.

Aoba's actions attracted everyone's attention.

They all looked at Aoba with eyes filled with fear.

Aoba first walk in front of the first person.

He sized up this person.

Then he raised his hand and touched this person's head.

"Ding Dong! Memory Reading Succesful! Obtained: Chakra Increase!"

A crisp electronic prompt sounded in his mind, and then memory was added.

Aoba did not say a word.

Then he walked towards the next person.

It was the same action.

He pressed his right hand on the head of the prisoner who was waiting to be interrogated and read the latter's memories.

Gradually.

When Aoba reached the fifth person.

His hand touched the person's head.

There was no reaction.

Then.

Aoba realized.

This was a person who he had read his memories.

"This is your second time here."

Aoba's indifferent voice rang out, echoing in the dark compartment. Immediately, everyone who Aoba had touched just now felt goosebumps all over their bodies, and they could not help but feel their scalps go numb.

Terrified!

Great terror!

As they listened to Aoba, it was as if they were listening to the whispers of a demon, and they could not help but feel fear all over their bodies.

This was a feeling that they had never felt before under the other interrogator.

After Aoba finished speaking, he ignored that person and walked toward the next person. He raised his hand and touched the latter's head.

"Ding Dong! Memory Reading Succesful! Obtained: Chakra Increase!"

A crisp electronic prompt sounded in Aoba's mind again. Then, he walked toward the last person.

The last person tied to the wooden pillar was one of the four people who had come in the first batch.

He saw that Aoba was getting closer and closer to him, and his heart began to tremble uncontrollably. He felt that his head had become dizzy.

Tap!

Just as he was frightened.

Aoba's head hit his head.

This was not the first time he had experienced this feeling. Half a year ago, he had come to Konohagakure Intelligence Division. The person he had faced at that time was this cat-faced demon.

There was a deep mark left on his leg by this cat-faced demon.

The more he thought about it now, the more afraid he became.

"This is not your first time here, right?"

All of a sudden.

An indifferent voice rang in his ears.

Instantly, all the hairs on his body stood on end.

"No, no, no, I, I, this is my first time!"

This person hurriedly explained. He felt that this cat-faced demon was even more abnormal than before.

"You don't need to explain."

Aoba's indifferent and cold voice sounded in the compartment. Then his gaze fell on the two people he had read before.

"Now I found two new chickens!"

"You will stay here until the next chicken arrives!"

"If you are lucky enough..."

"You may be released in a while!"

"But if you are unlucky..."

"You guys will be carried out just like that person just now!"

Aoba said coldly. He was not threatening these people, but really thinking this way.

Now, after passing through Oman, he found a new interrogation method.

That was to kill a chicken to warn the monkey!

People often belong to the kind of character who forgets the pain when the scar was healed!

The pain in the body was only temporary.

After a period of time, they won't feel anything.

This way, they would not care so much.

But the mental pain was different.

Some mental pain.

It could be remembered for a lifetime!

Aoba wanted to leave a deep mark on them so that they would not dare to commit crimes in the future and reduce the crime rate in this way.

Of course.

Not only that.

A person whose memories had been read.

To Aoba, it was no different from a cripple.

Even if they came to him again, it would not bring him any benefits!

Instantly.

Aoba began to torture the two new chickens.

...

Two days passed quickly.

One batch after another came from the compartment.

As the main force, the Konoha Military Police Force of the Uchiha clan and many of Jonin's clan members had gone to the front line to fight, so the village's security was already somewhat lacking.

Among these people who had been sent in.

It just so happened that only these two people belonged to the ones he had read their memories before.

Aoba was not polite to them at all.

One after another, the means were displayed on them, and the visual impact was extremely strong, causing the other people in the compartment to be in a state of extreme fear.

"See you tomorrow."

Aoba waved at the two of them and walked out of Konohagakure Intelligence Division's compartment, leaving the two of them here.

The two of them waited until Aoba left.

Another period of time passed.

"That demon is too ruthless!" One of them said with a trembling voice.

"You still... have the strength to... talk..." Another person said weakly with a pale face.

"Do you think we can still get out alive?" This person asked again.

"You bullshit... so much..." The other person obviously refused to speak. He had already suffered a great deal of pressure here, but now he actually talked about such a despairing topic.

...

After Aoba left Konohagakure Intelligence Division's compartment, he did not return to Anbu's dormitory. Instead, he walked into the forest behind the village.

He spread out all his perceptions.

After making sure that no one was following him.

Then, he jumped into the forest. Like an elf, he flashed through the forest continuously.

Swish...

A piece of paper appeared on Aoba's body. The paper stuck to his face, making him look completely different.

Satsuma Rentaro!

What Aoba had transformed into was this person.

According to Satsuma Rentaro's memory, they and Kirigakure's ninjas had agreed to be in the southeast direction of Konohagakure.

Logically speaking, there was no entrance there.

They could only pass through the barrier to enter.

According to Aoba's guess, Kumogakure should have provided Kirigakure with the technical support to crack Konohagakure's barrier.

In addition, Kirigakure ninjas just wanted to enter Konohagakure to get the scroll of water release.

This made the ninjas of the two villages hit it off.

Under the influence of common interests.

Kumogakure and Kirigakure launched an attack at Konohagakure together.

...

Half an hour later.

With Satsuma Rentaro's appearance, Aoba arrived at the agreed location.

He waited silently.

He still opened his perception to sense all the auras around him.

Suddenly.

Aoba felt some chakras approaching him.

The speed of these chakras was extremely fast.

It was faster than anyone he had sensed before.

'They came!'

Aoba immediately realized.

Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, who were famous in the ninja world, came.

These people are very famous.

Except for Kirigakure.

The whole world has its legends.

Just like Konohagakure Sanin and Konoha's White Fang.

It could be said that it was something to be proud of.

Swish Swish Swish Swish...

One figure after another flashed through the forest and finally stopped not far from Aoba. They were separated by a transparent barrier and did not directly enter.

"Satsuma Rentaro!"

After these seven people landed on the ground, they all looked at Aoba.

These seven people were all wearing Kirigakure's unique clothes, which were very similar to Haku and Zabuza's styles he had seen before.

Aoba looked at these people one by one.

Their names and images had been seen in Satsuma Rentaro's memory.

Now, he saw them in person.

Aoba could already match their names one by one.

Biwa Jūzō, Suikazan Fuguki, Kuriarare Kushimaru, Akebino Jinin, Munashi Jinpachi, Kurosuki Raiga, and Hiramekarei wielder.

(TL note: The First Generation wielder of Hiramekarei's name has never been revealed.)

"Did you get the thing?"

Biwa Jūzō asked Aoba. Judging from his posture, he should be the leader of the seven ninja swordsmen. In his hand was the Kubikiribocho that he had seen in anime.

"There is a small problem with the mission."

Aoba imitated Satsuma Rentaro's voice and said slowly. He stared at Biwa Juzo and added, "I have found Oman and found the thing's location through the information Oman told me. But I was ambushed by a spy from Kumogakure."

"A spy from Kumogakure?" Biwa Juzo's eyes suddenly lit up. He immediately realized that the matter was not simple.

"Yes, a Kumogakure spy. I can be sure that he is hiding in Konohagakure now. The scroll has been taken away by him. I need some time to find him," said Aoba.

"There is not much time left. Let's help you find it." Biwa Juzo could not wait any longer. As he spoke, he wanted to enter Konohagakure's barrier directly.

At this time.

Aoba finally saw through it.

There was no technique to break the barrier at all.

These seven purely wanted to barge in and then use their powerful strength to snatch the scroll away before forcefully leaving.
