Reborn in Konoha as the Anbu Torturer
Chapter 443: So You Are Really a Member of the Uzumaki Clan!Hiruzen stared fixedly at Aoba. He could already tell that the masked man in front of him was the one who had treated Danzo's injuries not long ago.
Only...
He could feel that he was that person.
But he was not completely like that person.
If the other party had not come here himself, even if he had seen him on the streets, he might not have been able to combine the two of them together.
"Are you the medical ninja who treated Danzo?"
Hiruzen stared at Aoba with wide eyes. When he said this, he noticed the change in the color of Aoba's eyes.
It was these changes that gave him a strange feeling in his heart.
It was to the extent that he was unable to recognize Aoba in the first place.
Looking at it this way.Hiruzen silently pondered in his heart. When he was looking for this person in the past, he might have made a mistake.
Things had changed a little too quickly!
He was restrained by a fixed line of thought.
"You finally recognized it."
Aoba slowly nodded. He stared at Hiruzen without any fear at all. His entire body seemed to feel at ease, which directly conveyed to Hiruzen that he was confident.
"It really is you!"
When Hiruzen heard Aoba's words, he immediately reacted. His expression immediately turned cold. He had already made many preparations in his heart.
After all.
In his opinion.
This person in front of him belongs to those who would come with ill intentions.
If not, there was no need to come here at this time.
He did not need to personally appear in front of him.
In addition, he had a fearless look on his face.
This made him a little unable to control his heart. Instead, he did not dare to act rashly and silently handed the initiative to Aoba.
"Sandaime-sama, I came to you this time mainly for Danzo-sama's affairs," Aoba said softly.
"What's the matter with Danzo?"
Hiruzen's heart thumped wildly. He instinctively felt that there was nothing good for Aoba to look for him. In addition, it involved Danzo, which made him feel that something was wrong.
At this time.
Hiruzen was still very dependent on Danzo.
Many things were difficult for him to handle alone.
Danzo's matter immediately caught his attention, making him not dare to be the slightest bit negligent.
"Do not worry."
Aoba keenly caught the change in Hiruzen's eyes at that moment.
It was not that Hiruzen was careless or not shrewd.
It was because Aoba's insight was too subtle. If Hiruzen's eyeballs moved little and his subconscious reaction would be discovered by him.
"I'm not here to harm Danzo-sama."
Aoba shook his head, and the corner of his mouth behind the mask slightly curled up. He then said, "I'm here to check on him."
"Check?" Hiruzen stared at Aoba, his eyes full of vigilance.
"That's right!" Aoba nodded and said, "It has been a while since the last treatment. Now it is time for the follow-up. I want to see his recovery."
"Did Eaton tell you?" Hiruzen immediately thinks of Eaton. After all, he had just looked for Eaton not long ago and talked about the things on this side. He wanted Danzo to be able to speak at least, but he did not get a positive response.
"No..."
Aoba shook his head again. He didn't want Hiruzen to always go to Eaton about such things, so he want to try his best to get Eaton out.
"He can't find me now."
"Sandaime-sama."
"I think you should be very clear."
"From when you were suspicious of my identity..."
"None of you could find me."
"But..."
"No matter what."
"Eaton is still very good to me."
"So I hope that if there is something, you can directly come to me!"
"And not always looking for Eaton."
Aoba said one sentence after another. The purpose of these words was to not let Eaton continue to be troubled by Hiruzen.
In the past, Eaton did not say it out because of his promise to him.
He cherished this very much.
But.
Now, Eaton did not say it.
It was because after Eaton was branded with the Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal, he had no way to say it.
Not to mention that he didn't want to say it.
Even if he wanted to say it, he couldn't say it.
So...
No matter how much Hiruzen asked, he would not get any results. On the contrary, it was easy for Eaton to be oppressed by Hiruzen when he was so tight-lipped.
This was something that Aoba did not want to see.
"What do I suspect of you?" Hiruzen narrowed his eyes slightly. He immediately grasped this point. He felt that this was a very important key point that could get Aoba's words out.
"Of course, it's about you suspecting my identity." Aoba blurted out subconsciously. Of course, this was what he wanted to show. When Hiruzen opened his mouth, he had already guessed what Hiruzen wanted to achieve. Thus, he used this point to directly explain the identity he wanted to create.
"Is there a problem with your identity?" Hiruzen did not frown. He felt that he was getting closer and closer to the truth. However, the more he got to this point, the more he could not be careless. He tried his best to control his tone so that he did not seem to have any problems.
"Hahahahaha!"
When Aoba heard Hiruzen's words, he immediately raised his head and laughed. There was a sense of arrogance in his laughter.
"Sandaime-sama."
"There's no need to play riddles between us anymore."
"Isn't it better to be honest with each other?"
"I'll tell you the truth."
"My name is Uzumaki Nagato."
Aoba said meaningfully. He felt that since he had turned into Nagato, he might as well use Nagato's name.
In the past, when he watch Naruto, he did not know whether Nagato was surnamed Uzumaki or not. He only knew that Nagato had the Uzumaki Clan's bloodline.
However...
This was not important.
Now, he wanted to borrow Nagato's name.
"So you are really a member of the Uzumaki Clan!"
When Hiruzen heard the name that Aoba had given him, a huge stone that was hanging in his heart suddenly fell to the ground.
He was not worried that Aoba was an Uzumaki Clan member.
He just wanted to find out what was going on.
He didn't want to think about whether that person was an Uzumaki Clan member all day long. This way, he won't always be unclear about what was going on.
"That's right."
Aoba nodded and admitted. The eyes that were exposed behind the mask still showed indifference, as if he did not take this matter seriously at all.
"I am from the Uzumaki Clan."
"I know everything you have done."
"Now I have told you everything."
"You don't need to guess."
"Are you satisfied now?"
Aoba stared at Hiruzen and said. He had used his shadow clone to come here to find Hiruzen. In fact, he was here to show his cards.
After all, he was not a real ninja from the Uzumaki Clan.
Therefore, showing his cards meant that he could get a new identity to use.
This wasn't a problem that was too difficult to think about.
"This..."
When Hiruzen heard Aoba speak so frankly, he didn't know what to say.
Everything that was happening here now.
Everything was beyond Hiruzen's expectations.
Right at this moment.
A strange power surged out and spread over Aoba. After that, his hands were uncontrollably raised.
There was a force on his body that was pulling him.
"I caught you."
A voice passed through the door of the office, and then Aoba uncontrollably raised his hands and walked toward the door of the office.
One step.
Two steps.
Three steps.
...
Seven steps.
When Aoba reach the door, his raised hand made a gesture of pushing the door open.
Creak...
The door of the Hokage's office was pushed open.
In front of him was a person who did the same action as Aoba.
That person was the Hokage's office advisor, Nara Shikaku.
"This is really an interesting technique."
Aoba's gaze fell on the shadow that connected the two of them. The shadow just now extended through the gap of the door and just happened to be stuck in his field of vision blind.
Kagemane no Jutsu(Shadow Imitation Technique)!
The timing of Nara Shikaku's use of this technique was just right. Not to mention Aoba standing here, even if it was any other person, they might still be caught.
"Now let me see your true face."
Nara Shikaku retracted his right hand, which was pushing the door open, and just happened to touch his face.
At the same time.
The shadow under their feet pulled Aoba to do the same. His right hand also grabbed the mask.
"Sandaime-sama."
"Is this how you treat your guests?"
"Do you not want me to treat Danzo?"
Aoba asked indifferently. His hands were still following Nara Shikaku's action, but he did not panic. Instead, he asked Hiruzen about it.
"It is not polite to talk with a mask. Moreover, I don't know why you are here. It is better for us to be honest." Hiruzen said in a low voice. When he said these words, he did not have any intention to stop Shikaku. He even took out an excuse to beat back Aoba's words.
"Sandaime-sama, you are still so hypocritical. I think I am very honest here. If it's about the mask, you have to leave me some privacy, right?"
As Aoba spoke, his hand stopped in front of the mask and did not grab the mask.
"You... this..."
Shikaku suddenly felt an extremely strong force pass through the shadow, making it so that his hand could not reach for his face.
It was important!
Shikaku felt as if his Kagemane no Jutsu(Shadow Imitation Technique) was acting on a statue. No matter how much strength he used, he was unable to shake the statue in the slightest.
This kind of situation was something he had only encountered when he was studying Kagemane no Jutsu(Shadow Imitation Technique) before.
Most of the time, he had never felt this way.
"Do you think you can bind me with this shadow?" Aoba said indifferently. As he spoke, he tilted his head and looked in Shikaku's direction.
Following this action of Aoba.
Shikaku felt that his neck was moving.
This feeling was very painful.
Snapped!
Along with a sound similar to the breaking of a rope, the shadow between Shikaku and Aoba was directly cut off. The Kagemane no Jutsu(Shadow Imitation Technique) was cut off just like that.
"Have you never thought about my identity before you attacked?"
Aoba put on an indifferent attitude and walked toward Shikaku step by step.
"You should have heard what I said just now!"
"I have already told you."
"I am a ninja from the Uzumaki Clan."
"Don't you know what the Uzumaki Clan ninja are best at?"
Aoba said as he walked. He was already in front of Shikaku. His eyes were fixed on Shikaku, and he ignored Hiruzen who was sitting at the desk.
"Seal... Sealing Technique..."
Shikaku's voice was trembling. It was not because he was afraid, but because he had consumed a lot of energy just now and his body reacted instinctively. That was why he was like this.
"That's right!"
Aoba nodded, a hint of gratification flashing in his eyes. However, his steps did not seem to slow down in the slightest.
"It is the sealing technique!"
"Your shadow is very powerful!"
"But in front of our Uzumaki Clan..."
"It's still not enough."
In order to make his acting more realistic, Aoba had already put himself into the identity of an Uzumaki Clan member, as if he was the Uzumaki Nagato he was talking about.
"Stop!"
At this time, Hiruzen roared. He had already realized the problem and suddenly flashed out, directly separating the two of them.
Hiruzen doesn't know why.
A very strange thought arose in his heart.
It seemed...
If he didn't make a move now.
Nara Shikaku would be in big trouble.
"What are you trying to do?" Hiruzen stared at Aoba, a strong sense of vigilance flashing in his eyes.
"I already said it."
Aoba stared at Hiruzen meaningfully. After what happened just now, he felt that whether it was Hiruzen or Shikaku, they had already believed that he was an Uzumaki Clan ninja.
As long as they accepted this setting.
Then the follow-up would be much easier.
"I came to treat Danzo!"
Aoba said word by word clearly. This was indeed his purpose for coming here. He wanted to completely treat Danzo's injuries so that Konohagakure could recover their normal rhythm.
Now was the best time.
If it was just a little bit early in the morning, then Hatake Sakumo might not leave. Danzo would make a new decision for Hiruzen.
"Are you serious?" Hiruzen frowned. He felt that there was something wrong. He could not help but continue to ask, "Is there any benefit in doing this for you?"
"I will feel happy."
Aoba smiled slightly. Although his smile was blocked by the mask, it could still be seen from his eyes.
Such an answer.
Hiruzen and Shikaku were stunned.
Especially Hiruzen.
He vaguely felt that Aoba's purpose was to take revenge on Konohagakure. After all, Konohagakure played a crucial role in the annihilation of the Uzumaki Clan.
