Reborn in Konoha as the Anbu Torturer

"Ding Dong! Memory Reading Succesful! Obtained, Katon, Karyūdan(Fire Release: Fire Dragon Bullet)!"

A clear electronic prompt sounded in Aoba's mind, indicating that he had obtained a Fire Release Ninjutsu.

This was the first time in half a year that he obtained ninjutsu. And it was no longer a simple increase in the chakra or spiritual energy.

It could be seen that Yuta's strength was still good!

...

"Captain Yuta, goodbye."

Aoba was in a much better mood. He turned around and walked outside, leaving Yuta, who was confused.

"Goodbye... goodbye..."

The aura that Yuta had just grasped was already gone. He stood there in a daze, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.

What the hell?

What did this person come back for?

Just for this tea leaf stalk?

Yuta raised his right hand and looked at the green tea leaves quietly lying on his palm. His mind was dizzy, and he felt as if he had missed something.

It was just a refreshing feeling.

But he felt something was wrong.

"What is it?"

Even now, Yuta still felt that it was very outrageous. This young man couldn't really have come back just for this!

Something seemed to be really wrong!

But he can't say for sure!

He didn't lose anything...

Nothing changed at all!

Besides, as a Sensory Ninja. When Aoba approached him, he had already raised his perception to the limit and confirmed that Aoba did not use any chakra.

"Could it be that I was overthinking?"

Yuta frowned. After this exchange just now, his whole person was not good, and the relaxed and proud expression on his face could no longer be found.

...

"Who are you showing off your skills with?"

Aoba muttered to himself as he walked out of the teahouse with steady steps.

If not for Yuta's last words, Aoba wouldn't think much of it.

There was a saying that people who were dying shouldn't talk too much.

Yet you were still thinking about the missing people case?

Hurry up and prepare your funeral and find a suitable burial place!

...

Aoba was cautious not because of the environment but because he was a cautious person before he transmigrated.

In the past, his friends had always been jokingly said that he had a paranoia problem.

It was precisely because of this vigilance.

It made him not have complete confidence, take any risks, and be more careful when examining various things.

If it were someone else, he might be touched by Yuta's acting, thinking that the old man in front of him was about to enter a coffin, and his heart was filled with compassion.

Aoba was different.

It was precisely these words that instantly ignited the flames of vigilance in his heart.

This did not conform to common sense!

This was not something a dying person should want to do!

Because of this, Aoba decided to kill his way back.

When he saw Yuta's slightly surprised expression and flustered eyes, he immediately realized that he had not guessed wrong. This old bastard was showing off his acting skills here!

Who didn't know how to act!

Aoba immediately acted in reverse and patted his head to get the tea leaves. He also took away Yuta's memories and went back to study them carefully.

Yuta successfully stirred up his curiosity and wanted to see what exactly this old man was planning?

...

Aoba did not go anywhere else. Instead, he went straight back to Anbu's dormitory.

He had already taken a leave today, and there was no need to go back to work.

He wanted to go back and carefully read Yuta's memories.

According to the memory stored in his brain right now, this was the first time he had read a large number of memories. After all, Yuta was already old.

Not long after, Aoba returned to the dormitory. He sat down quietly and began to carefully read through Yuta's memories.

In a split second, scenes after scenes appeared in his mind.

Aoba sat by the bed and checked the memories he had read.

Time passed by.

After a long time.

"Ha~"

Aoba exhaled heavily. Then, he opened his eyes, and a trace of exhaustion flashed in his eyes.

Even though he was only looking up memories that had already been read, it was still quite difficult to flip through such a vast life of several decades.

"Nara Tetsu."

Aoba's thin lips parted as he spat out this name, and this was something he had read from Yuta's memories.

Nara Tetsu was an old senior of the Nara Clan.

He was the same age as Yuta and had a very close relationship with him. Moreover, Yuta followed his lead.

It could be said.

Yuta was Nara Tetsu's aide and boss!

"Hey... you guys from the older generation, don't take yourself too seriously!"

Aoba's expression turned cold.

"It doesn't matter what you guys do."

"But if you guys want to drag me down with you,"

"It's impossible!"

"I won't give you this chance!"

Aoba's tone was very determined. After reading Yuta's memory, he had already guessed what the latter might do and the means he had to use from the latter's behavior and conversation.

Twenty years ago.

Sarutobi Hiruzen became the Third Hokage.

Shimura Danzo became the leader of Anbu and established his own organization, Root.

Konohagakure stepped into a new chapter.

But.

There was a small group of people in the village who disagreed with Sarutobi Hiruzen.

They began to discuss some things in private. Yuta was one of these people, and Nara Tetsu was the leader of this group.

These people were relatively old, and they had once been bathed in the glory of the First Hokage.

They thought that the Third Hokage was extremely muddleheaded. So they always wanted to find the weakness of the Third Hokage and push him down from his position.

For this purpose, these people left the family and went deep into different divisions in Konohagakure.

They wanted to investigate and collect the black materials of the Third Hokage and take him down with evidence.

But, things are much more difficult than they imagined...

In these 20 years, the higher-ups of Konohagakure eliminated the dissidents and stabilized their rule. Even the families they belonged to changed their heads. The Nara Clan, Yamanaka Clan, and the Akimichi Clan all became direct followers of the Sarutobi Clan, causing them to lose their foundation.

If that was all, they would not be so helpless.

The most important thing was...

In the past 20 years, countless big and small incidents have occurred in the village beneficial to Konohagakure's higher-ups.

However, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen was like a pure white lotus. There was no mud on his body at all. He appeared in the people's eyes with an absolutely bright image and was deeply loved by the people.

As for those incidents that can't be exposed to the light...

They all pointed at another man!

He was decisive in the killing.

His methods were ruthless.

He was extremely cunning.

He did things without leaving any evidence...

Of course.

Even if they got the evidence of that man, it would not affect Third Hokage's position.

This made them very uncomfortable.

So Nara Tetsu focused on the case of the Konoha people's disappearance. He wanted to use this matter's social influence to force Third Hokage to step down.
