Reborn in Konoha as the Anbu Torturer
Chapter 296: Danzo-sama Wants to See You!Aoba carefully pushed open the stone door and returned to the corridor.
Until now, there was no one in the corridor. This situation made Aoba feel a little puzzled.
Logically speaking...
There should at least be some people guarding this place. But then again, the Anbu in his own division was indeed not many.
There were few Anbu from Yamanaka Clan. For Yamanaka, who often read memories, everyone knew how to keep these secrets and would not talk nonsense.
Aoba looked at the dark corridor. He took a deep breath and continued walking forward.
Now that his guess was clearer, he felt that this was the place where the spoils of war(corpses) were stored.
In fact, these corpses had no value at all. All the internal organs have been hollowed out.
Unless it was like Aoba, who has a cheating system that came here and used his ability to extract the memories of these people.
Otherwise, no one would be able to read the memories of these people.All sorts of things in the past. Everything became smoke and gradually dissipated in the long river of time.
People often cherished the present and looked forward to the future, but very few people went back to the past and remembered the things that had happened in the past. After all, people were forgetful.
Aoba felt that at a certain point in the future, this dark corridor could be transformed into Konohagakure's history museum and display these corpses as exhibits. He did not mind providing some of the deeds of life for these corpses to let people remember what had happened in the past.
Aoba continued to walk forward.
Another period of time passed.
Another stone door had appeared. Now, he had already discovered the pattern. The distance between each stone door was very far and about the same, but the room was not big.
In other words...
The walls of each room were thicker than the size of the room.
"Wait!"
Aoba suddenly widened his eyes. He realized something that he had neglected before.
In a split second, his gaze was focused on the wall next to the stone door. He raised his hand and knocked on the wall next to the stone door.
Ever since he entered this place, he did not dare to make any noise easily. His contact with the wall was for leaving the Flying Thunder God Formula.
Dong! Dong! Dong!
The sound of Aoba hitting the wall could be heard. He could clearly hear the sound coming from the wall and felt that it was empty.
He was not surprised by this sound. After all, it was a room where the corpses were stored.
Then, Aoba suddenly turned around and looked at the wall behind him.
From the moment he came in until now.
There was no such thing as a secret door on the wall opposite the room where the corpse was stored. It was just like a straight corridor wall with only candlesticks with candles.
If you don't pay special attention. This place was no different from the wall.
Aoba walked to the side of the wall step by step. He raised his right hand and formed a hollow fist with his right hand. He gently knocked on the wall.
Dong! Dong! Dong!
As Aoba knocked, the sound was a bit dull, but it was obviously a sound, not like hitting a solid wall.
Empty!
Aoba's pupils contracted slightly.
Through this time, he suddenly realized that the back of this wall was not solid but had an empty space. There was also a room inside, but he did not know where the entrance was, nor did he know what was inside.
"It seems that there are many secrets hidden in Konohagakure!"
Aoba did not have much contact with this wall. Now he did not know where the entrance was, he did not see any switch, and he did not find these secrets in anyone's memory.
Perhaps...
The entrance was not here at all. But he could not find the answer to this question, so he did not continue to investigate.
After all...
If he wanted to enter this wall, he would have to use violence to demolish it. This method could not be used unless it was absolutely necessary!
Moreover, this method could only be used once.
Once it was used, this side would be exposed. If there was no harvest, then it could be said to have alerted the enemy.
Because of this, Aoba chose not to care about that side. There were still many rooms here that had not been checked.
Before thinking about other possibilities, he had to confirm all the things he could confirm.
Rumble...
Along with the sound of the stone door rubbing against the ground.
Aoba walked into the room and casually closed the stone door. From the outside, it looked as if no one had come.
The room was extremely dark. However, Aoba had already completely adapted to this darkness. It would not affect him at all.
The layout of the room was the same as the previous rooms. There were iron shelves that had been welded onto the ground.
Only...
There was nothing on these iron shelves. It was another empty room. However, Aoba did not go out directly.
Aoba first raised his right hand and pressed down on the side of the stone door.
Hum!
As the chakra in Aoba's hand surged, he directly left behind a Flying Thunder God Formula here.
After the Flying Thunder God Formula appeared. This place coordinate appeared in Aoba's mind. As long as he wanted to, he could come back at any time.
After Aoba left behind a Flying Thunder God Formula, he still did not leave the room. Instead, he approached the direction he came from.
Aoba walked all the way to the wall.
"Hu..."
Aoba took a deep breath. His eyes became serious. He was very clear about what he was going to do next. It could be said that it was very important.
If it was the same as what he had guessed. Then, a great secret might be hidden in this part below the Hokage Building.
Suddenly, Aoba clenched his right hand into a fist and knocked on the wall.
Dong! Dong! Dong!
Along with Aoba's knocking, the wall gave him the same sound as before.
'This is not a solid wall!'
'To be precise, this wall is not very thick!'
'There is absolutely no need for the two rooms to be so far apart!'
"This..."
Aoba suddenly widened his eyes. What he found was similar to what he had guessed.
Not every room was so far apart, but… there were also rooms between these rooms. It was just that the entrance was not there!
"No wonder no one was watching this place..."
Aoba immediately had an answer in his heart. No one in this corridor knew about the secret that belonged to Konohagakure. He had first to enter the secret door in the Hokage Building. After entering, he had to walk to the end of the dark and cold corridor, then open the stone door and go down.
Most of the ninjas would not find this place. Even if they found it, they would not dare to come down.
Moreover, even if they found the secret room. Those people could only see corpses, and they could not get any information from the corpses.
From a certain point of view, these rooms were arranged here for people to see. Anyone who came here would find nothing wrong.
More or less, there were some corpses piled up here.
Even if they were discovered. Not only could it be explained. It could also teach the people who found it a lesson.
In the future, no one will take this place too seriously. They would only think that this was a morgue for the ninjas who invaded Konohagakure.
"What is in those rooms?"
A big question mark appeared on Aoba's head. He began to walk along the walls around the room while knocking as he walked.
He immediately came to a conclusion.
The walls on both sides of the room were empty. This meant that there were rooms next door. It was just that he could not see it now. But the wall facing the stone door. It was a solid wall, and there was no room next to it.
Therefore, Aoba concluded that there were rooms on both sides of this dark room. Only the room that could be entered from the corridor he walked on was only a few rooms in the left row, and the rest of the rooms could not be entered.
There was also no clear entrance.
Then Aoba prepared to look for the other stone door again. However, just as he walked toward the stone door and was about to push the stone door open.
He heard the sound of footsteps coming from outside the stone door. It was the sound of the soles of the feet rubbing against the ground.
Someone was coming!
Aoba immediately realized that someone was coming from outside the stone door. Then, Aoba's body was tightly pressed against the wall next to the stone door.
This way, if someone came to open the door, then he could just use Hiraishin no Jutsu(Flying Thunder God Technique) to leave.
If those people didn't come to open the door. He could just listen to their movements.
Step step step...
A series of footsteps walked along the corridor outside the stone door. They did not stop at Aoba's position for too long.
After these people walked past. Aoba still stood beside the stone door and did not move.
"I can't continue."
Aoba still realized that this 'exploration' had come to an end. There were already people in the corridor. If he continued to move forward, there would be a high chance of being found. Then the situation would be passive.
This kind of thing still had to be done secretly. Once he was discovered. Even if his identity would not be exposed immediately, the secrets hidden in these rooms might be kept away.
At the very least.
From the current situation, Aoba felt that there was no need to be radical or risky. He could completely resolve these matters bit by bit.
Then, Aoba's mind stirred. He communicated with the Flying Thunder God Formula in a tree in the forest behind the Hokage Building.
The Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu was once hidden on the trunk of this tree.
Swish!
Aoba immediately used Hiraishin no Jutsu(Flying Thunder God Technique) and disappeared from where he was.
For a moment, It was as if he had never been to the secret room.
"What secrets are hidden in those rooms?"
Aoba stood on the branch, his body turned into a pile of paper, and as the paper flipped, he returned to his original appearance and then walked toward the Hokage Building.
This forest was originally behind the building and only a few minutes away. Soon, Aoba returned to the entrance of the building.
Aoba looked as if he had just arrived. His eyes stared at the word "fire" at the entrance of the Hokage Building, and his eyes became slightly serious.
It was not that no one knew that he had been here. Just now, he had bumped into Hatake Sakumo.
'Hopefully, there will be no problem.'
Aoba once again entered the building. This time, just as he reached the entrance, he met two ninjas guarding the entrance.
This was completely unexpected.
From the time he entered the building to the secret door, he had not seen anyone. He did not know if it was due to some strange coincidence that he happened to catch up with some wonderful timing.
"Is there anything you need?"
The two ninjas gatekeepers stared at Aoba. They were both Chunin and not Anbu's ninjas. They were usually responsible for guarding the entrance of the Hokage Building and sending information to various divisions.
"I am looking for Danzo-sama," Aoba whispered. In fact, he was originally looking for Danzo, and he just stopped by the corridor to have a look. However, even he did not expect that he would find some big secrets.
"You are looking for Danzo-sama?"
The two gatekeepers narrowed their eyes and looked at each other. They could see the surprise in each other's eyes.
Both of them were the gatekeepers of the Hokage Building and had been working here for many years. It was the first time they've come across here looking for Danzo.
"Kid, Danzo-sama is not working here. This is the Hokage Building!" One of the ninja gatekeepers said.
"Danzo-sama is next door!" Another gatekeeper said and pointed to the building next building.
"Oh, I see. Thank you."
Aoba nodded to the two of them, then immediately shook his head and walked out. He had read the memories of the three Root ninjas and knew very well how to find Danzo. However, his current identity should not know this.
But this process not only gave him a very normal way to find Danzo but also increased the number of people who knew about his search for Danzo. This way, even if something happened, he would not be easily suspected.
After Aoba walked out of the Hokage Building, he looked at the building next to the Hokage Building.
It was a two-story building.
The first floor was where Hokage's Anbu worked, and the second floor was where Danzo worked on the surface.
Then Aoba walked directly toward the building.
"What's the matter?"
Just as Aoba entered the building, he was stopped by another ninja guarding the entrance.
This ninja was different from the ninja guarding in the Hokage Building. He was wearing a mask and was not an ordinary ninja.
From the pattern on the mask, it was not a regular Anbu. It should be Root ninjas.
"I want to find Danzo-sama." Aoba said to the Root ninjas.
"Why are you looking for Danzo-sama?" The Root ninja asked. His eyes looked at Aoba through the hole in the mask, but he did not see anything special about Aoba.
"Something very important," Aoba said indifferently. He felt that this Root ninja was asking too much. This was not the style of Root, but it was not a problem if he thought about it a little. Not just anyone could come to Danzo and report directly.
"Please answer my question directly."
The voice of this Root ninja became indifferent. According to his experience, he did not think that this youth in front of him had the qualifications to talk to Danzo directly. If he could not give him a reasonable explanation, then he would not let this youth go to see Danzo.
"It is not good for you to know about this matter. You just need to tell Danzo-sama, say that Yamanaka Aoba wants to see him, and he will see me." Aoba said indifferently. This was not that he deliberately wanted to argue with the Root ninja here. It should be known that he was holding a copy of Teacher Bai of the Ninja School for Danzo. If this kind of thing were brought to the public and let Danzo's subordinates know, then there was going to be a problem with Danzo's character design.
This was not only not good for the Root ninjas in front of him.
It was also not good for Aoba!
Aoba came here to send a book to Danzo, not only to numb him but also to use this opportunity to send some information to Danzo when the latter felt that he was a harmless existence.
"This..."
After hearing Aoba's words, this Root ninja was a little confused.
'Could it be that this person in front of him was doing a secret mission?'
'But...'
'Aren't all the people carrying out the secret mission from Root?'
'But if it's not a secret mission, there should be no problem to say it directly!'
For a moment, many question marks appeared in Root ninja's mind. He already began to feel that this youth in front of him was not playing a prank.
"Wait a moment; I will report your matter to Danzo-sama. As for Danzo-sama seeing you, that is not something I can control."
The Root ninja guarding the entrance thought for a moment and felt that it was better to go and report it to Danzo upstairs.
"Okay."
Aoba nodded and did not urge the Root ninja who was guarding the entrance. After saying that, the Root ninja quickly walked toward the second floor.
Aoba looked at the back of the ninja and stood at the entrance, waiting silently.
A few minutes later, the Root ninja who guards the entrance hurriedly came back from upstairs.
"Danzo-sama wants to see you!"
The Root ninja hurriedly said to Aoba. This time, the tone of his voice became much more respectful. Moreover, the way he looked at Aoba changed.
'I didn't expect it!'
'This kid actually received Danzo-sama's call.'
This was something he hadn't thought of before. So much so that when he heard that Danzo nodded without hesitation and wanted to see Aoba, he was still stunned.
"Okay!"
Aoba nodded. The corners of his mouth slightly curled up, revealing a smile. He was not surprised at all, and it was completely within his expectations.
