Reborn in Konoha as the Anbu Torturer

As Danzo watched Kaze walk into the room, his eyes flashed with an imperceptible complex look.

He believed that what Kaze said was true.

After all, if he did not really see Kumogakure Advisor’s memory. It was impossible for Kaze to know something.

Now it seemed.

This Kaze was not the same as in the rumors!

He had some ability and could be reused!

In the future, he might bring a different contribution to Root.

Danzo silently watched Kaze leave. The latter was still very young and was very happy to be able to enter Root.

However, he was even more interested in Aoba at this time.

‘Is this what I think is wrong with him?’

Danzo thought silently in his heart.

…

After Kaze returned to the room, he immediately attracted the attention of everyone present. Everyone’s eyes were filled with curiosity. They all wanted to know if Kaze had successfully become Danzo’s subordinate and embarked on this path of promotion.

“Hehehe…”

After feeling everyone’s gaze, Kaze immediately revealed an evil smile. The pride on his face was overflowing.

There was no need to say anything.

Just this expression and smile.

It made the people at the scene immediately understand that Kaze had succeeded, and now he had completed the task that Danzo-sama had entrusted to him.

‘Damn it!’

Everyone couldn’t help but sigh in their hearts!

This Kaze, who they regarded as trash, could actually really retrieve memories from the charred skull.

Wasn’t this a bit too exaggerated!

After the Yamanaka Clan ninjas understood that Kaze had won the final victory, the jealousy in their hearts quietly faded away.

The rest was deep admiration. After all, the opportunity was in front of everyone.

Everyone present had seen the skull and given up on the skull. This was no longer a matter of fate.

Even if the skull were given to them now, they would not be able to read and retrieve the memories within.

This was a matter of ability!

Now they all understood that in the field of memory reading, no one was Kaze’s match.

That was it.

Kaze was under everyone’s gaze.

He walked straight toward Aoba.

This scene immediately attracted the attention of everyone present. The way they looked at Aoba became even more strange.

Kaze walked until he was in front of Aoba. His young and confident face revealed a smile.

“Aoba, I’m sorry. I misunderstood you. It turns out that what you wrote in your book is not the information. I’m really sorry!”

Kaze said with a smile.

After saying these words, he even bowed slightly to Aoba. He looked like he was apologizing, but in fact, he was a bit black and white.

When Kaze said this, the scene became lively again.

Everyone was keenly aware of the very useful information in Kaze’s words.

So…

Aoba did not read any information at all!

This was all Kaze’s misunderstanding!

Now, Kaze stood out to clarify this misunderstanding!

But…

Why did it feel like Kaze was immensely proud of himself?

It was more like he was showing off!

“It doesn’t matter.”

Aoba said indifferently.

He didn’t care about Kaze’s pride at all. On the contrary, because Kaze helped him clarify this matter, he didn’t need to explain himself.

It was quite good!

Aoba did not care about people’s gazes around him at all.

What he cared more about was that no one would come looking for trouble with him.

For a moment.

Everyone present knew what Kaze meant from his words.

It was obvious that Kaze had read Aoba’s book.

Then…

It could be said that Kaze was the only person to be promoted this time!

This result made everyone feel much easier to accept. For them, it was a blessing in misfortune.

“Go, Danzo-sama is looking for you. You have to explain what is going on with that book. I wish you good luck, hahahahaha!”

Kaze couldn’t help but laugh out loud at the end of his sentence. Now that he was in a good mood, this was the beginning of his new life.

From the beginning, no group wanted to accept him. Later, the corpse he was assigned to was the skull that no one was willing to exchange with. In the end, he became the only one who completed the mission and got the chance to be promoted.

The whole process was amazing.

Kaze was very glad that he chose to read the skull’s memory at that time.

Otherwise, he might be the same as everyone else.

They were all waiting for the mission to fail.

“Okay.”

After hearing Kaze’s words, Aoba immediately took a step forward and walked outside. He did not know what Danzo would say to him, but what should come still came, and what should be faced still had to be faced.

Just as Aoba walked to Kaze’s side.

Kaze gently turned his head and looked at Aoba, his eyes flashing with provocation.

“Thank you for your book. It seems that I thought too highly of you. It turns out that you don’t have this ability!”

Kaze said in a low voice.

He deliberately lowered his voice because he didn’t want others to hear it and just wanted to sneer at Aoba silently.

But…

The attention on the scene was all on the two of them.

Even if the voice was very low but because the space was not that big and it was very quiet, it still allowed everyone to hear it clearly.

For a moment.

Everyone felt that Kaze’s behavior was a little inappropriate, giving people a feeling of a villain achieving success.

However.

Aoba did not feel anything at all.

He walked directly toward the door, ready to see Danzo outside.

Now, he no longer cared about Kaze.

To him.

Kaze was just a tool.

The task he was responsible for was to pass on the memories he wanted to pass to Danzo.

As for the other things.

He didn’t care at all.

Aoba did not care about Kaze’s ridicule. He did not care if others looked down on him, but he was afraid that others would look up on him.

If he was careless and acted too conspicuous.

That would make him worry instead.

Now, Kaze’s actions could be said to have directly eliminated all the worries in his heart, allowing Yamanaka Clan ninjas present to know that he did not have any outstanding aspects.

This was already good.

It was enough!

Under everyone’s gaze, Aoba walked to the stone door, then opened it and walked out of the room.

Everyone looked at Aoba in a different way, but they were all very complicated. Many people felt sorry for Aoba’s encounter.

This person… did nothing. However, Danzo wants to meet him alone for no reason.

Perhaps… It was not a good thing! At the same time, everyone began to worry.

They felt that Kaze was a little scary. Whether it was the twisted mentality that a villain could have after achieving success or the mysterious operation that could bring misfortune to the people around him.

After all, Aoba seemed to have nothing to do with Kaze throughout the whole process.

He just quietly wrote something on the book in the corner.

Then he was suspected by Kaze to be writing intelligence.

Finally, it was reported to Danzo.

Such a person had no status and was still like this. If they get some status, they will definitely make people feel scared!

…

Aoba walked out of the room and came to the corridor. Just as he came out, he saw Danzo holding a red book.

At this time.

Danzo did not flip through the book again. He just clenched it with his left hand and quietly stood where he was.

“Danzo-sama, are you looking for me?”

After Aoba walked to the door, he respectfully bowed to Danzo. Right now, he was like this in front of you. He could be submissive to you, but he will dare to punch you in the next second after putting on a vest.

“What’s going on with this book?”

Danzo looked at Aoba with his left eye. He looked at Aoba up and down.

At this time.

The strange feeling was gone.

‘Looks like…’

‘That feeling was all in the book.’

Danzo still believed in this feeling of his, and his doubts about Aoba immediately decreased a little.

“This… Um… This… This is… a little… a little… personal hobby…” Aoba stammered. He had exaggerated a little and appeared a little shy, but in essence, he was still a little shy. After all, it was fine to share this kind of thing with LSP, but to share it with strangers would more or less be a little awkward. After all, his skin was very thin, and it was not thick to the extent that it did not matter at all.

“Hobby?”

After hearing Aoba’s explanation, Danzo could not help but twitch his eyelids. However, he still felt that this explanation was quite reasonable, and there was not much of a problem.

“This book is Uchiha Fugaku’s?” Danzo asked again.

When he asked this question.

He raised his hand, and his gaze stopped on the book’s title page.

He could clearly see Uchiha Fugaku’s signature.

“Yes… yes…”

When Aoba saw Danzo’s action, he knew that Danzo had already seen the signature. The signature was Uchiha Fugaku, and there was no way to hide or circle it.

In that case, he might as well just admit it directly!

“I didn’t know that Fugaku’s writing was not bad!” Danzo slowly nodded. There was a little bit of praise in his calm tone.

“Ah???”

Aoba was stunned for a moment.

Good fellow.

He actually mistook it for Fugaku’s novel. This was completely beyond his expectations. The most important thing was… Danzo actually praised an Uchiha!

In Aoba’s impression, Danzo did not seem to have praised the people of the Uchiha Clan. If there were, it might be Shisui or Itachi, but the purpose was to use them.

As for whether there was any praise, he could no longer remember clearly.

In short.

This was a rare opportunity for Danzo to praise an Uchiha, and it was heard clearly by Aoba.

Only.

This answer made it difficult for Aoba to reply.

It can’t be said that it was written by Uchiha Fugaku, right?

However.

Forcefully saying that it was written by himself at this time?

Will there be any trouble?

At the moment when Aoba was in a daze.

Danzo placed the red book in his hand back into Aoba’s hand. The left eye that was exposed outside stared at Aoba seriously, making Aoba feel a little scared. He was afraid that Danzo would do something abnormal to him.

“Did you copy the contents of this book?”

Danzo’s voice sounded again. Before Aoba could answer, this matter was rounded up.

“You have a good relationship with Fugaku?” Danzo continued to ask.

For a moment, Aoba didn’t know which one to answer these continuous questions. But he knew that had to answer the last question.

He first shook his head. He felt that it would be very disadvantageous for him to maintain a good relationship with the Uchiha Clan. Then he quickly nodded, showing that there seemed to be a relationship between the two.

Through this action, he passed on the image of a person who had a little relationship with Fugaku, but not much.

“I am his book fan.”

Aoba said directly.

Just a moment ago, when he shook his head and nodded. He thought a lot in his heart.

First of all, Danzo would definitely not investigate the contents of this book with great fanfare. That was simply unnecessary. The dignified Big Boss of Root would not go as far as to make everyone know who the author of the Red Book was.

Secondly, the relationship between Danzo and Uchiha was very tense, which made it so that Danzo would never go to Fugaku to verify this matter.

In the end, the people who had seen this red book, other than Aoba and Danzo, there were only Eaton and Teuchi.

In the case of Teuchi, he wouldn’t talk nonsense at all. Moreover, Teuchi had never seen the content of this book.

Only the person who had seen the content and knew the identity of the author was Eaton.

After this matter was over.

Just tell Brother Eaton.

This way, he could temporarily stall this matter.

After Aoba figured this out, he pushed the identity of the author of this book onto Fugaku.

This happened to explain the relationship between him and Fugaku.

Otherwise, if he said that the content of this book was written by himself, but the book was given by Fugaku. If he took the book given by Fugaku to write such content, it would not be easy to explain.

It was not as simple as it is now.

“Book fan?” Danzo was stunned. He had never heard of such a term before, so he was a little confused.

“Well… this is a special title… It refers to me being his avid reader,” Aoba immediately explained.

“That’s the principle.”

Danzo nodded. Based on this layer of relationship, everything made sense.

As the boss of Root.

He understood that Konohagakure Intelligence Division’s people all had some special hobbies.

After all, the ninjas who worked at Konohagakure Intelligence Division felt a lot of pressure in their hearts. It was not a bad thing to be able to find some solace in their spirits. It was not a problem at all.

“Then this book…”

Danzo stared at the book in Aoba’s hand. He did not finish asking the rest of the questions, waiting for Aoba to say these things himself.

“It’s like this…”

Aoba immediately entered his own rhythm and activated his Great Tricking Technique.

He raised the book and aimed the cover of the book at Danzo. The cover of the book was so fierce that Danzo did not dare to focus his eyes on it.

“When I first went to Konohagakure Intelligence Division, I was lucky to borrow a book from Captain Eaton. That book was Jiraiya-sama’s Icha Icha Paradise. From then on, it opened the door to my new world. From then on, I understood that there were such novels in the world.”

Aoba began to flicker from the place where he first came into contact with the novel. He understood that the earlier this kind of story starts, the more likely it is to be trusted.

Especially when he talked about some important people and things.

Jiraiya.

Icha Icha Paradise.

These two were real things, and with just a little investigation. It could be found.

This was a method that Aoba had learned to lie in the real world.

That was to say a part of the real thing first. After the other party believes it, then talk about some fake things. The other party might believe it because of inertia and trust in you.

The Jiraiya and Icha Icha Paradise that Aoba was talking about at this time were to give Danzo a point that he could investigate. Then, what he wanted to say next was to make Danzo believe it.

“Danzo-sama believes that after you read it just now, you will have a feeling of wanting more…” Just as Aoba said this, he was interrupted by Danzo.

“I didn’t!” Danzo said without hesitation, but his slightly flashing eyes deceived his true thoughts.

“Oh, oh, oh, okay. I know. I won’t say anything.” Aoba immediately nodded and skipped this part. He continued, “After I finished reading the Icha Icha Paradise, I wanted to read other books of the same type, so I went to the bookstore to look for them. Coincidentally, I met Fugaku. He told me that he was planning to write a novel, so he wanted to take a look at it…” Aoba began to make up stories. After all, this kind of thing can’t be investigated at all.

It was impossible for the owner of the bookstore to remember such things.

It was impossible for Danzo to ask Fugaku about these things too.

Now, he could only believe Aoba’s words.

“At that time, Fugaku didn’t show it to me. Later, when I went to Ramen Ichiraku to eat ramen, I met him again. Then, I mentioned that I wanted to see it, but he still didn’t show it to me…”

Aoba began to embed some of his meetings with Fugaku into the book he wanted to borrow.

He was very clear.

After this incident. Danzo was bound to investigate the relationship between him and Fugaku.

He might find out that he had been close to Fugaku before.

In order to avoid Danzo’s excessive suspicion of connecting him with the Uchiha Clan, he hurriedly paved the way between himself and Fugaku.

As a result.

All of Aoba’s actions of searching for Fugaku would become him looking for Fugaku for his manuscript.

Even if he could find out that he had contact with Fugaku, that was all.

As for how they came into contact with.

No one could find out. Unless they could read Fugaku’s memories or the memories of the people who had seen Aoba and Fugaku before.

But…

This was not something particularly important, and there was no need for that at all.

“Later…”

Aoba continued. Now, he had completely grasped the initiative of this story. As long as he wanted to, he could make this story up in the most reasonable way.

“Finally, under my urging, Fugaku promised to show me his manuscript. After I read it, I was shocked. I wanted him to publish it, and then I went to buy a book to read.”

When Aoba said this, his tone paused slightly. Then he changed the topic, directly making a big turn.

“But… How should I put it… Fugaku has been very busy recently, and he doesn’t intend to publish the book at all. Now, in the whole ninja world, only a few people have seen the things in this book…”

Aoba raised his right hand and stroked the cover of the book. The place where his fingers stopped was just right on the key position of the cover.

“One day, when I went to Ramen Ichiraku, I ran into Fugaku and Sekai. At that time, Fugaku thought that I was his loyal reader. He decided to give this book to me and left an autograph on the title page. I also successfully obtained a book.”

After explaining to Danzo how he obtained such a book, Aoba lifted the book in his hand and slowly opened it.

“At that time, I felt that it would be a pity that this book was not used. I wrote the manuscript that Fugaku showed me and finally presented it here.”

In just a few words, Aoba explained to Danzo how he got this book and where the contents of the book came from.

Throughout the entire process. Danzo was very quiet. He listened to everything that Aoba had said. It was unknown whether he believed it or not.

However.

Aoba did not care whether Danzo believed it or not. He was only giving an excuse for this matter.

“Aoba, do you mean that the story in this book is an orderly chapter, and there is more of it?” Danzo asked after a moment of silence.

“There are stories after that!”

Aoba quickly nodded and agreed. He had a faint feeling that Danzo wanted the follow-up plot of Teacher Bai of the Ninja School, but Danzo did not say it directly.

Then all he had to say was that there would be a follow-up, and the author did not cut it.

This will preserve as much expectation as possible.

After saying this, Aoba hurriedly shook his head and spread his hands in a helpless posture.

“This is all I read. I don’t know if Fugaku has written the following story or not. Last time, after he showed it to me, he went to the battlefield. I have never seen him again, and I don’t know what the later story is.” Aoba quickly explained.

This matter was very important. He vaguely sensed a sense of crisis. It seemed, if he said, he had seen it. Danzo might even send someone to read his memories, and it was very likely that it was that Kaze.

When that time came. He still needed to edit a new chapter quickly, and that would be too troublesome. It would be better for him to write the chapter directly.

Because of this.

Aoba simply admitted that he did not know what the new chapter was and wanted to become a little reader like Danzo, looking forward to Fugaku’s update.

“I see.”

Danzo nodded. Just as Aoba had guessed, he did not try to guess whether Aoba’s words were true or false.

This was not an important matter at all.

It was the question of who wrote the novel.

Moreover.

Based on the preconceived concept.

Danzo already felt that the story in this book was written by Fugaku, and then Aoba wrote down the manuscript that he had read.

“Aoba, I’ll give you a secret mission. Listen carefully.” Danzo’s expression immediately became serious.

“Yes!”

Aoba assumed a shocked posture and stood up straight, listening to Danzo’s arrangements.

After he explained so much. In his heart, he had already guessed what kind of mission Danzo would give him.

“Go buy a dark book later. Make a copy of the content on this red book and write it all on that dark book!” Danzo lowered his voice very low. Although there was no one in the corridor and the stone door was soundproof, he was still afraid that others would hear it.

“Oh, oh, okay.” Aoba nodded in a daze and put on a confused posture, but he was already happy in his heart.

“After you copy all these into the black book, put the book away. When Fugaku’s manuscript is updated, write it in the red book and black book.” Danzo said again. His voice was lower, but he still slowed down to let Aoba hear every word he said clearly.

“Okay.” Aoba nodded mechanically. He had already understood Danzo’s meaning from his words, but he pretended not to know and gave Danzo exclusive space to play.

“Aren’t you curious why I asked you to do this?” Danzo asked curiously when he saw that Aoba had completely agreed.

“Danzo-sama said that this is a secret mission. I only need to complete the mission. Everything else has nothing to do with me.” Aoba immediately said. He knew that Danzo didn’t like to ask too much. Root was the best example. When the people there were nurtured from the beginning, they needed to have no name, no dreams, and just be a machine that only had missions in their hearts.

“Very good!”

Danzo nodded his head in satisfaction. He suddenly discovered that although this Aoba did not have a strong performance in terms of strength, he still had some special points.

“Aoba, we talked so much. In the end, I want to ask you, do you want to follow me?” Danzo immediately threw an olive branch to Aoba.

As soon as these words came out. Aoba immediately fell silent. There was no suspense in this question at all.

He definitely did not want to.

Looking at the entire Konohagakure, the person he did not want to be involved in the least was Danzo. Even if he had little contact with the people of the Uchiha Clan, he was not willing to have any contact with Danzo.

This was a very important matter!

Following Danzo was equivalent to entering Root, and entering Root was to be branded with Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal on the tongue.

Aoba flipped through all the books related to seals and grasped many seals. However, there was no Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal inside. He had no idea how this was created and did not know how to undo this seal.

This was something that he did not want to be involved in at all.

But…

Aoba was very clear.

If he directly refused Danzo, it might cause Danzo to be dissatisfied, and he had to find a better solution.

“Well…”

Aoba frowned slightly, then pursed his lips and said, “Danzo-sama, I know what kind of ability I have. I think I am quite good in Konohagakure Intelligence Division now. If I follow Danzo-sama, I think I will delay Danzo-sama’s task.”

For a moment, Aoba could not think of a solution that was too appropriate, so he directly used this euphemistic excuse to blame everything on his lack of ability.

“I think you are quite suitable.” Danzo still looked at Aoba and said.

“I… this… I… I don’t have any dreams… I just think it is good to live like this…” Aoba once again tactfully refused.

“I understand.”

Danzo immediately stopped inviting him. He was not such an inflexible person. He would not repeat it again and again. His favor for Aoba was completely due to the latter’s attitude toward the task and had nothing to do with ability.

In Danzo’s opinion, Aoba’s ability was not qualified at all. He only opened a green passage for Aoba because of this Teacher Bai story. Since Aoba was unwilling to enter, then forget it.

Opportunities were often so fleeting.

Danzo would no longer mention this kind of invitation, and Aoba had completely missed it. Even if he went back on his word now, it would be too late.

“Aoba, I haven’t finished telling you the mission just now. In fact, there is still one last task. That is, when the dark book has three additional chapters, you come to me with the book!” Danzo said to Aoba in a low voice. Although there was no expression on his face, he was already very expectant in his heart.

Actually.

As far as he was concerned. It was good that Aoba was not at Root. This way, it would be easier to get close to the Uchiha Clan that was opposing the Root.

He could follow behind Fugaku to get more manuscript content. He might even bring some unexpected information.

One had to know… the Uchiha Clan was a very xenophobic clan.

Outsiders were not allowed to pass through the entire territory of the Uchiha Clan easily. Even if he and Hiruzen wanted to enter the Uchiha Clan territory, they had to inform the higher-ups of the Uchiha Clan beforehand.

Not to mention keeping a pair of eyes on Uchiha Clan. That would simply be extremely difficult.

Unless…

You develop a person from the Uchiha Clan, let that person serve as their eyeliner, and monitor the Uchiha Clan by betraying the Clan.

However, it was not that easy to find such a fool.

Now, there was a reader of Fugaku. Coincidentally, Fugaku might be the future clan leader of the Uchiha Clan. Then, this novel could complete the task of observing the Uchiha Clan.

This was a very rare opportunity, and it was precisely because of this. Danzo wanted to ask Aoba if this book was written by Fugaku. If not, then this secret mission would be impossible to talk about.

“Yes.”

Aoba nodded. He faintly felt that Danzo was not as simple as just wanting to read novels. Otherwise, he would not need to hoard three chapters and read them together. There might be some other purpose.

However, Danzo did not reveal this purpose. Before Danzo said it out loud, he also did not want to speculate.

As long as Danzo continued to let him live a normal life and sent him a few chapters of novels every time, this was not a big problem at all.

“Other than that…”

Danzo suddenly raised his voice a little.

“In the process of your contact with Fugaku, if you find any problems with Fugaku, record the problem in a dark book and give it to me as you write the chapter!” Danzo said what he cared more about.

No matter what time it was, even if Danzo recognized Uchiha, it could not prevent Danzo from attaching great importance to the danger of the Uchiha Clan in his heart.

The Uchiha Clan.

We must be on guard!

If there was a chance, we must eradicate them!

This was something that Danzo had been trying his best to do. He did not believe in the Uchiha Clan at all. There were still many things that he had not figured out yet. The clues of many things that had happened in the past were all pointed toward the Uchiha Clan.

“Yes.”

Aoba immediately responded. Now that he had completely understood Danzo’s plan, the burden in his heart was lifted.

At the same time.

He found that his identity suddenly became more convenient.

He could completely change the angle of everything related to Uchiha and pass it to Danzo through the dark book that contains Teacher Bai’s story.

What was the content?

This was not entirely up to him alone, and this was much more convenient than entering Root.

At this time, Aoba suddenly realized that he had successfully stood between Danzo and Uchiha because of the red book.

Moreover, his identity was very hidden.

He will not be retaliated against by Danzo, nor will he be retaliated by Uchiha. Every message he transmits determines the relationship between Danzo and Uchiha.

This could be said to be…

Whether Konoha was chaotic or not, Aoba has the final say!

“Well… there is one last question. If someone else finds out about you giving me that dark book, or if Fugaku finds out, do you know how to answer it?” Danzo asked. This was also a question he needed to consider. After all, once it was exposed, he would try his best to monitor the Uchiha Clan.

“I know!” Aoba nodded without hesitation. He was best at this ability to adapt to the situation.

“Oh? What would you say?” Danzo had not thought of an excuse yet. He did not see Aoba directly nod and just say that he knew. This made a big question mark appear in Danzo’s head. He stared at Aoba with rapt attention, waiting for Aoba’s answer.

“This is just Danzo-sama’s hobby!” The corners of Aoba’s mouth curled up slightly, and he said something that stunned Danzo.

“This…”

Danzo suddenly felt awkward. He just felt that there was something in Aoba’s words, but he could not refute it because what Aoba said was the truth.

However.

If he hadn’t given Aoba such an excuse, maybe Aoba wouldn’t have said that.

“Alright…”

Danzo nodded helplessly. If that happened, it wouldn’t be a big deal to sacrifice his own reputation.

Moreover…

This was indeed a hobby!

It was just that he had never had such a deep understanding of it before!

Even Danzo had to admit that this Teacher Bai of the Ninja School story was too wonderful. It made his old body, which had been silent for many years, involuntarily throb. Now, when he thinks back to those plots, he still feels that it was particularly exciting…
