Now, this tower could be said to be a rare secret base for Aoba.

He had already moved many things here.

During this time of war, no servants would come here easily.

He had stayed quite well here.

After all, after passing through the Anbu team directly under Hokage, it can be seen that he can't put things in the Anbu dormitory casually.

"After this period of time, I should build an underground base similar to Orochimaru's base. It will still be safer.

Aoba silently thought in his heart. According to the information he had obtained, he judged these things.

He lived in Konohagakure and always had some accumulation and secrets.

These things have to be stored in a place.

For now.

There was still a chance that this tower will be discovered.

Then...

Aoba's eyes flashed. He thought of a possibility, but he was not sure for the time being. Doing that would have a positive effect or a reverse effect.

"Root should only know that these two people came out to do an assassination mission, but the specific route and the final trajectory should not be confirmed for the time being."

Aoba looked through the memories of the two Root ninjas again and found that they did not leave any marks in the assassination process.

In other words...

They were simply carrying out an assassination mission.

For these two people, their status in Root was actually relatively low.

After all, they were only Chunin.

Even if they were doing an assassination mission, they would only kill Chunin.

This was also enough to show how much Danzo despised that small organization.

Even Jonin was not willing to be sent out.

He did not take these people seriously at all.

Since there was no trajectory of action.

As long as these two did not run away.

They should not be able to find the tower.

Aoba silently calculated in his mind. After making a series of judgments through the memories of these two people, he was slightly relieved in his heart.

'Fortunately...'

'If Root really had their eyes on this side.'

'Then there is nothing I could do.'

He could only change to a new secret base.

After that.

Aoba got up and walked down from the third floor of the tower, all the way to the dojo on the first floor of the tower.

He raised his hands.

His two hands stretched out two fingers, crossed them together, and made a hand seal gesture.

"Tajū Kage Bunshin no Jutsu(Multiple Shadow Clone Technique)!"

Aoba immediately used Tajū Kage Bunshin no Jutsu(Multiple Shadow Clone Technique). In an instant, a thousand Aoba appeared in the hall, all of them were his shadow clones.

"Continue to carry the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu."

Aoba took out the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu and placed it in front of these shadow clones. Just as he was about to start memorizing the contents, he was interrupted by the two Root ninjas that suddenly invaded.

At that time, he had no choice.

Aoba had to take back all the shadow clones to ensure that he would face the enemies who entered this place in his best condition.

Now, he could set up the shadow clones again.

For a moment.

These shadow clones took out scrolls and began transcribing the contents, then carefully memorized the words.

Aoba wanted to imprint the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu in his head.

This way, he would become a water release ninja at any time.

Gradually.

The night passed.

The next morning, Aoba returned to the dormitory through Hiraishin no Jutsu(Flying Thunder God Technique).

The two Root ninjas were still on the third floor of the tower. There was a tag on their heads that could allow them to continue sleeping, and their bodies were completely sealed. Shadow clones were staring at them, so there would be no problems.

Aoba returned to Anbu's dormitory. After washing up, he walked out of the entrance of Anbu's dormitory and headed straight for his Konohagakure Intelligence Division compartment.

Not long after.

The young man came to his compartment.

Right now, there was no one inside the compartment. He had already released the chicken he caught two days ago.

Another period of time passed.

The compartment still had no one sent in. This feeling was similar to when the war had just begun.

At that time, no one came in for the entire day.

Now, he already had that feeling.

After another period of time.

Step step step step...

The sound of footsteps came from outside Aoba's compartment.

As the footsteps approached, they finally stopped at the compartment door.

Creak!

Accompanied by the sound of the door opening.

The compartment's door was opened.

The person standing at the door was not the prison guard who had sent people to the compartment in the past, but a masked Anbu Ninja.

"In half an hour, gather at the Hokage Building!"

This Anbu ninja said to Aoba and then added.

"This time, all Anbus have to go. No one can be absent. Hurry up."

After saying that.

This Anbu left and walked towards the other compartment.

Because Konohagakure Intelligence Division's work had been redistributed.

There were not many ninjas who were still working in the compartment.

Therefore, there was not much work to do to inform them.

There was no need to knock on the door one by one.

"Yes."

Aoba faintly responded, and a small question mark appeared on his head.

'What is it?'

'Why did they suddenly have to gather?'

'Could it be related to the two Root ninjas?'

'It can't be...'

Aoba felt that it was not that exaggerated. After all, the two Root ninjas were only Chunin, and they had only been missing for a night. There was no need to mobilize so many people to gather all the Anbus.

Moreover, it was in the Hokage Building.

It should be another matter.

Aoba immediately walked out of the compartment's room. He followed Anbu's instructions and walked towards Konohagakure Intelligence Division's entrance.

Just as Aoba walked to the exit of Konohagakure Intelligence Division, he saw Eaton waiting there.

"Brother Eaton?"

When Aoba saw Eaton, he immediately realized that the latter should be waiting for him here.

Recently, no matter what happened, Eaton had been taking care of him.

Although there was a benefit to it.

But this big brother was not called for nothing!

"Aoba, I am waiting for you. You should have received the notice that all Anbus have to gather in the Hokage Building. Even I am no exception." Eaton stared at Aoba and said. There was a serious look in his eyes, and his expression looked serious. He seemed to have realized what was going to happen.

"Does Brother Eaton know what is going on?" Aoba asked doubtfully. Now he hoped to get some information from Eaton so that he could be prepared.

"There are spies in Anbu. Now we have to check all of them. No one is an exception." Eaton said in a low voice. He shook his head helplessly and said, "This kind of thing has been going on for more than a day or two. It's just that the village has never been ruthless enough to deal with it. I'm afraid that the investigation will have a bad effect. Now that we are in a war, we can't care about so much. Many things will be even more disadvantageous to the village if we don't deal with them."

"I see!"

Aoba nodded. He instantly understood what Eaton meant.

He had never thought that there would be spies among the Anbus.

Until the two Kirigakure spies appeared.

Only then did Aoba realize that other villages had already infiltrated the Anbu.

It was like there was a terrorist organization in the FBI.

If they didn't deal with it immediately, it would definitely leave behind a huge source of trouble.

However, the Third Hokage was an indecisive person. He was afraid that doing this would have a harmful effect. He was afraid that the Anbu would think that the village was suspecting them, so it would be even more difficult to deal with the spies. He was worried that it would cause a dispute between the villages.

"Go quickly. This is a big matter. We can't be late. Moreover, you might have to work hard in this examination. I especially waited here to give you a preview."

Eaton nodded to Aoba, indicating that Aoba should hurry to the Hokage Building. After he finished speaking, he habitually raised his hand slightly. However, this time, he quickly retracted his hand. His movements looked extremely skilled.

"I understand."

Aoba nodded, turned around, walked out of Konohagakure Intelligence Division, and walked towards the direction of the Hokage Building.

He understood the meaning of Eaton's words.

The so-called effort.

He should be referring to the Yamanaka Clan Mind Reading Technique.

Looks like...

This time, the two spies in Anbu had completely made the village decide to take care of them!

Aoba roughly understood what was going on in his heart.

...

Half an hour later.

In the street outside the Hokage Building.

Hundreds of ninjas wearing Anbu's clothes stood there.

Among them was Aoba.

The crowd was very quiet.

No one spoke.

The atmosphere was rather oppressive.

Aoba sensed the number of ninjas present here and knew that this was definitely not all of the Anbus.

At least some of Jonin should not be here but were fighting with Kumogakure's ninjas on the front line.

This should be all of the Anbus left behind in Konohagakure.

A few minutes later.

A man wearing a red and white Hokage robe walked out from the rooftop of the Hokage Building.

This person had a smoking pipe in his mouth.

The moment his figure appeared, it instantly attracted the attention of all the Anbus present.

This person.

Everyone at the scene recognized him.

Even those who didn't know him knew who he was when they saw his clothes.

Konohagakure's Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen!

The Third Hokage stood on the rooftop and felt the people's gazes below him. He was silent for a dozen seconds.

All of a sudden.

The atmosphere at the scene became even more oppressive.

"Cough cough... Cough..."

Hiruzen cleared his throat and directly broke the quiet atmosphere. He attracted everyone's attention, making everyone's heart rise. Through the simple sound of his throat, everyone realized that he was going to start talking.

All of a sudden.

The Anbus gathered in front of the Hokage Building all looked at Hiruzen.

"I believe many of you know that something big happened in the village in the past day!"

Hiruzen's voice echoes slowly. His voice was magnetic and could bring people into that situation in an instant.

"Kumogakure Jonin, Gasshi, who killed Konoha Military Police Force, Uchiha Sekai, have been hiding in Konohagakure. But we have not found him!"

Hiruzen's voice sounded again, but there was a kind of reproach and introspection in his words this time.

"But..."

"Just yesterday!"

"We found him!"

Hiruzen's voice became sharp. He did not blame the Anbu at the scene but used his tone to let everyone know his dissatisfaction.

"The Gasshi who killed Sekai and seized Sekai's Sharingan..."

"Under the protection of two Anbus, he swaggered through Konohagakure's main entrance..."

"He left the village in a grand manner!"

When Hiruzen said this.

Everyone at the scene became even more silent. Anyone could hear the anger in Hiruzen's voice.

This kind of thing.

The impact was really too bad.

It had already made the villagers panic.

Almost the entire Konohagakure knew about this matter. Even the ordinary people knew it very well, let alone the Anbus.

"This matter made me feel a lot of pressure. I realized that I didn't do enough in the past!"

"Of course."

"This matter also has the responsibility of Konoha Military Police Force and the Patrol Division."

"It's just that I will pursue their responsibility in the future. I won't let them continue to be lazy and adjust the overall defense of the village."

As Hiruzen spoke, he already intended to pursue the responsibility of the Konoha Military Police Force and the Patrol Division. However, he had already realized that his words were a little off, and he quickly pulled the topic back.

In an instant.

Hiruzen changed the topic, and his voice became cold.

"But..."

"The biggest problem is that Anbu has a spy!"

"After the investigation of Hokage's Anbus, we have confirmed the identity of the two missing Anbus."

"One of them is called Satsuma Rentaro, and the other is called Yushima Hiroshi. They are both spies that Kirigakure planted in our Konohagakure Anbu!"

Oh!

Anbu's ninjas burst out in cries of alarm in the crowd!

There was actually a spy in Anbu?

This was the normal reaction of every Anbu. They usually wore masks and hid their identities to better carry out missions.

But if there were spies among them.

In that case, their identity information was not a secret to outsiders.

This made many of Anbu serious.

Of course.

The spies among them were a little nervous.

They could feel that the Third Hokage was really angry from his words and tone.

Then what awaits them next, even they themselves can't guess.

"Everyone, don't worry. Let me finish!"

Hiruzen's voice sounded again, pulling everyone's attention back to him.

"This time, we gathered everyone here to conduct a thorough screening of Anbu!"

"Now, please follow me to the hall on the first floor of the Hokage Building."

"Everyone, sit down and wait in place."

"We will find the spies among you one by one."

"Of course..."

"If any of you are willing to admit your identity, then it can save me some strength!"

After Hiruzen finished speaking, he smiled slightly. He understood that these words could only be said. The purpose was to create some psychological pressure on these spies, making them naturally panic.

After finished speaking.

Hiruzen turned around and left. His figure returned from the rooftop to the Hokage Office.

Just after Hiruzen left.

A Hokage's Anbu in a white robe appeared in front of everyone.

This person was Hokage's Anbu Captain.

He waved his hand.

One figure after another shot out, standing around Anbus. Each person stared at more than ten people and surrounded the entire Anbu.

"Now, all of you, listen to my command. If anyone resists, they will be treated as spies!"

This Hokage's Anbu Captain coldly said. From his tone, everyone could feel that this time, the Third Hokage really made up his mind to clean up the Anbu.

"Let's go!"

This white-robed figure jumped down from the high platform and led the group to the Hokage Building.

Now that he had said it to this point.

Naturally, no one dared to disobey.

Including Aoba, the Anbus entered the building one after another.

This was the first time Aoba came inside the Hokage Building. He had never been there before, but now was not the time to be curious about it.

The Anbus followed the white-robed Anbu all the way to a spacious area on the first floor of the Hokage Building.

There were already more than twenty ninjas in this area with tall and straight bodies wearing Konohagakure's ninja clothes. They wore Konohagakure's forehead guard, and their overall hair color was mainly blonde.

When Aoba saw these people, his eyes suddenly became slightly stunned.

He had seen all of these people in his memories.

They were all from the Yamanaka clan.

They did not belong to Anbu, nor did they belong to Konohagakure Intelligence Division. They only belonged to the Yamanaka clan.

When Aoba saw these people, he was stunned.

He probably knew what was going to happen next.

'No way...'

'They shouldn't be able to read his memories, right?'

Aoba was shocked, but there was no change in his expression. He knew very well that he must not have any emotional fluctuations at this time. Otherwise, he would be easily regarded as a spy.

All of Anbu's ninjas came here and sat down.

The white-robed Anbu stood at the front of the crowd. His sharp and cold eyes looked through the mask and swept over the Anbus who was sitting down.

"Within the Anbu, the people of the Yamanaka clan are the first to step out!"

This white-robed Anbu's voice revealed an unquestionable dignity.

As soon as his words came out.

Aoba's mood instantly sank to the bottom.

Sure enough.

It was the same as what he imagined.

What should come.

In the end, it still came.

Aoba braced himself and stood out with the other Yamanaka clansmen who were with Anbu.

Now, he had already locked onto the Flying Thunder God Formula on the tower through his mind perception.

'I hope the Mind Reading System is awesome!'

Aoba muttered silently in his heart. He absolutely could not let anyone know what he had done.

If he couldn't do it.

Then he could only rely on the Hiraishin no Jutsu(Flying Thunder God Technique) to leave.

In a moment.

One by one, Yamanaka's clan walked out from Anbus and stood in front of these Anbus.

"We know that the Yamanaka clan is a clan that is loyal to Konohagakure, but this time we are investigating the entire Anbu. We will not easily suspect anyone, but we will not completely trust anyone. I hope you can understand!"

The tone of the white-robed Anbu eased their mood a lot. After all, there were many members of the Yamanaka clan standing next to them, and the three clans, Ino-Shika-Cho, were very important to Konohagakure.

"Understood."

Several people, including Aoba, nodded in agreement.

Other than Aoba.

It seems that everyone was very confident about themselves.

Being upright was not afraid of being slanted.

They had never done anything to betray the village, so naturally, they were not afraid of being mind read.

"Your mission is very simple!"

The white-robed Anbu swept his gaze over these Anbu from the Yamanaka clan.

"You must first receive the inspection from the seniors of the Yamanaka clan!"

"After passing..."

"All of you will inspect the remaining Anbu with the seniors!"
