Reborn in Konoha as the Anbu Torturer

Saki brought Rin along as they walked in the direction Aoba had left.

Although the two continued to move forward smoothly, their moods were not good.

Saki was still upset about what had just happened, but Rin didn't know what kind of place they would go.

After walking for a few minutes.

Rin became more and more confused. She couldn't help but stop and stare at Saki.

"Saki, where are we going to find him? Aoba has been gone for a long time. We can't catch up with him now. We also don't know where he lives. How can we find him?" Rin asked suspiciously.

"I don't know where he lives. I was too careless with my words just now. We haven't clarified many things, yet we let him leave. There are indeed some troubles now, but I have a way to find him!" Saki's eyes flashed with a bright light.

"What way?" Rin asked doubtfully. This was the way they talked with each other. Generally speaking, after Saki discovered something, Rin would ask her a question, and then Saki would answer it.

"Hehehe, we can go find Brother Fugaku. I know where Brother Fugaku works. Let Brother Fugaku take us to find Aoba." Saki grinned. She had a lot of sly ideas.

"Brother Fugaku..." When Rin heard this, her face revealed a bitter expression. She then said, "We have to trouble Brother Fugaku again."

"There's nothing we can do. We can't let our new teammate have a misunderstanding with us. I caused this incident, so I must try my best to make up for it. I can't let Aoba continue to be disappointed." Saki said seriously.

"Okay, I'll go with you. Anyway, I'm full now and have nothing else to do." Rin nodded. Although she felt that this plan could have been a better one, it was still a viable plan. There was still no problem.

"Let's go!" Saki brought Rin to the Konoha Military Police Force building with who she had gone with Fugaku yesterday.

A while later.

Saki and Rin had already arrived at Konoha Military Police Force.

At this time, Konoha Military Police Force's entrance was still open, but it didn't look like anyone was there.

Saki immediately walked toward the Konoha Military Police Force's entrance. Just as she arrived, she was stopped by the ninja guarding the entrance.

"This is Konoha Military Police Force; no one is allowed to enter!" The ninja guarding the entrance immediately said loudly.

"Hello, I am looking for Uchiha Fugaku. Is he inside?" Saki asked the ninja guarding the entrance. She deliberately made her voice sound soft and sounded a little delicate.

"Are you looking for Fugaku-sama?"

When the ninja heard Fugaku's name, his attitude immediately improved, and his face changed.

"Fugaku-sama went out on a mission and has not returned yet. If you want to find him, you can come back a little later." The ninja immediately explained to the two of them.

"We will wait here."

Saki didn't want to miss Fugaku after he came back. If that happens, they might have to wait until tomorrow to find Aoba.

"Okay, you come in and wait inside. Don't stand at the entrance. Fugaku-sama should be back soon." The ninja nodded and offered the two girls to come in. After all, the other party was Fugaku's acquaintance, so he couldn't neglect them.

"Alright!"

Saki immediately pulled Rin toward the Konoha Military Police Force. After all, this was Konoha Military Police Force and was very safe. The two of them were not afraid at all.

Moreover.

The ninja guarding the entrance was not worried that the two would cause trouble.

Because ever since Konoha Military Police Force was established.

No one had ever dared to cause trouble in Konoha Military Police Force.

...

At this time.

Just as Saki and Rin were waiting for Fugaku inside the Konoha Military Police Force building.

Fugaku was in the Uchiha clan territory and had just successfully sent Mikoto home.

Along the way.

The two people were silent for a while; then, they began chatting.

There was only one topic they were talking about...

That was Aoba!

From why Aoba was asked to take the Chunin Exams to the fact that she hasn't seen Aoba for a while and asked about Aoba's situation...

In short.

Both of them were talking about Aoba.

And nothing else was discussed.

When Mikoto went home, she was obviously in a good mood. She got a lot of information about Aoba, which she did not know during this time.

Because Kushina followed Minato to Mount Myoboku.

Therefore, she didn't even have a friend to go out with. In addition, the village was not peaceful recently, so she almost stayed in the Uchiha clan.

Because of this.

Since Kushina left.

She only saw Aoba again today.

She still had a lot to say in her mind. She wanted to say it and ask again, but the environment was obviously not suitable, so she suppressed it all in her heart and finally asked Fugaku.

...

Fugaku watched Mikoto return home, and a smile appeared on his face.

"It's okay..."

Fugaku felt that he had finally managed to coax Mikoto's mood through hard work. This made his mood improve as well.

"Aoba, thank you. I wouldn't know how to coax Mikoto if not for you!"

Fugaku attributed the credit to Aoba. When Mikoto asked about Aoba, he discovered a common topic that they could discuss deeply. They might have spent the entire journey in silence if they weren't talking about Aoba. That would be too embarrassing.

'It seems...'

'Aoba is the password to ease the awkward atmosphere!'

All of a sudden.

Fugaku thought of a very good idea. That was if he was really with Mikoto in the future.

Then if he encountered a situation where he made Mikoto angry.

He could talk to Mikoto about Aoba or invite him to his house to help him coax her. Wouldn't his days be better?

Thinking of this.

Fugaku suddenly felt that he was a great genius!

After that.

Fugaku returned to Konoha Military Police Force. On the way back, his mood was much better than before.

...

On the other side.

Nara Clan.

The two people stood in the room with varying degrees of sadness on their faces.

One of the two people had his black hair combed up, and it looked like it was tied up very tightly. It was Nara Shikaku.

The other yellowish-brown-haired man was Yamanaka Inoichi.

"Inoichi, is your information alright? Did Saki and Rin really find a teammate?" Shikaku frowned, and his face turned serious.

"Is there any need to fake it? The registration form can be delivered to me in person. Now, the registration form has been officially approved." Inoichi said helplessly. His expression was a little urgent, but it was not completely urgent. After all, this matter was related to the Nara and Akimichi clans.

"Inoichi, the registration form was delivered to you; why didn't you reject it?"

Shikaku was stunned. The three of them were responsible for the upcoming Chunin Exams, so they were doing some tricks to inform those who might participate in Chunin Exams and tell them not to team up with the two girls. Otherwise, it was impossible for them to pass. In addition, they were going to find some weak Genin and let that person team up with the two girls to achieve the result of dragging them down.

They were in charge of the Chunin Exams, so they knew a lot of information.

....

For example, who were the people who signed up.

This was also what made them more anxious.

There were not many strong participants this time.

If they did not intervene, Saki and Rin might really pass the Chunin Exams.

This was something they did not want to see.

But because the three of them were in charge, they still had one last card in hand.

When the two girls went to sign up, they could reject it so that they would not be able to take the Chunin Exams.

"This... I am also very helpless..."

When Inoichi heard Shikaku's words, his face was full of helplessness. He took a deep breath and recalled what had happened not long ago.

"It was not them who came to submit the registration forms. It was Konohagakure Intelligence Division Captain Morino Eaton-sama who brought it over. Moreover, Eaton-sama is their recommender. What can I do? If I don't approve it, I am afraid I will be invited to Konohagakure Intelligence Division. However, I am not the person who interrogates, but the person who would be interrogated."

Inoichi helplessly spread out his hands. When he saw Eaton personally come over, he was already dumbfounded. He wanted to reject Saki and Rin's registration forms but can't do it.

"Eaton-sama?"

Shikaku frowned even more tightly, and a thoughtful look appeared in his eyes. He had already realized that something unexpected had happened in this matter that he did not know about.

Shikaku was also very puzzled in his heart.

Why did Eaton personally come to deliver the registration form and recommend someone? Why would such a big shot interfere in the Chunin Exams?

"The registration has to be three people in a team. Then there will be one more person in Saki and Rin's team. Who is that person?" Shikaku asked after thinking for a while.

"Yamanaka Aoba."

Inoichi immediately said in a low voice. Even he was very surprised about this matter. He never thought that this matter would develop to this extent in the end.

"Aoba?!" When Shikaku heard Aoba's name, he was completely stunned.

"That's right, it's him." Inoichi nodded.

"Strange, didn't we find Aoba before? He didn't want to participate in the Chunin Exams. Why is he out now?" When Shikaku said this, his eyes suddenly flashed with horror. After that, he said, "I understand now. It's not that Aoba doesn't want to participate in the Chunin Exams, but he doesn't want to lose. He's playing tricks on me here."

"Then what should we do?" Inoichi asked again.

"Let's go find Aoba. I must clarify the matter. Now that we cannot reverse the situation, I can only think of some other ways. Maybe it's still not too late.." Shikaku said in a low voice. After speaking, he stood up and prepared to walk out.

"I will go with you!" Inoichi immediately followed him and said, "Aoba is a member of our Yamanaka Clan. My words might have some effect."

"Come, let's go together. We won't wait for Choza. It's useless for him to come. This matter has nothing to do with him. Let him wait for us here." Shikaku immediately walked quickly toward the direction of the Anbu dormitory. He was very clear about the place where Aoba lived. This was not a secret to him.

Inoichi followed behind Shikaku. The two of them moved together and did not wait for Choza, who had not yet arrived.

For what they were going to do.

Akimichi Choza was not very useful.

...

Aoba didn't know what Saki was imagining. He just said a big truth frankly without so much extended meaning at all, and he didn't intend to make it so profound for others to guess.

He didn't know how things had been misunderstood in such a way when he returned to the Anbu dormitory.

...

Aoba returned to the Anbu dormitory and lay on the iron bed in his room. His mood was still very complicated.

Many things happened on this day.

Not only the matter of Teacher Bai of the Ninja School but also the Chunin Exams matter.

"Fortunately, those two girls are quite reasonable. Otherwise, things would be troublesome. Now, this is the best arrangement!"

Aoba stared at the ceiling.

He was also thinking about the follow-up arrangements.

The Ninja World was already at war, but the flames of war had yet to spread to Konohagakure.

It was currently in a state of calm before the storm.

Such a quiet life.

I'm afraid it won't last long.

This point.

Aoba was very confident.

Konohagakure could be said to be a village that will hardly miss any ninja war from beginning to end!

There was no need for him to do anything special.

There would definitely be a village that had its eyes on Konohagakure.

For example...

Iwagakure!

There would always be villages that would covet Konohagakure!

This was also closely related to Konohagakure's fame and geographical location.

How long will it take for Minato to learn senjutsu? However, this period of peace has bought him some time. It will allow him to master it for a while. There is no need to rush back to the village."

Aoba muttered to himself.

He knew that Konohagakure and Mt. Myoboku had always been in contact.

They would know when there was a problem in the village, so there was enough time.

The question was how long this quiet time would last...

Even Aoba himself did not know this.

"I'm tired. Let's rest for a while."

Aoba lay on the bed and closed his eyes. He needed to ease his mood during this period of time. After all, what happened just now consumed a lot of energy. It made him feel a little tired.

Gradually.

Aoba fell asleep.

...

Konoha Military Police Force.

After waiting for an unknown amount of time, Saki and Rin finally meet Fugaku.

As soon as Fugaku entered Konoha Military Police Force, he heard the ninja guarding the entrance tell him that two girls were waiting for him. He vaguely guessed that it might be Nara Saki and Akimichi Rin.

Not long after.

Fugaku arrived at the room where Saki and Rin were waiting for him.

Creak...

Fugaku pushed open the door and saw Saki and Rin, who suddenly stood up. A big question mark appeared on his head.

"Brother Fugaku!"

Saki and Rin said almost at the same time. Both of their eyes were focused on Fugaku, and their eyes were flashing with eagerness. When they stayed here, they had already realized the more they reflected, the more serious the problem was.

"Saki, Rin, why are you here? Are you hungry again?" When Fugaku felt the eyes of the two people, he instinctively felt a little scared. Especially after thinking about Rin's appetite, he no longer dared to think about treating them to a meal in the future. After that, he looked around and asked, "Where is Aoba? Is he here too?"

"Brother Fugaku, we came here to ask you to take us to find Aoba. There are some misunderstandings between us. I need to explain to him, but he has already gone back. We can't find him..." Saki said helplessly. Now, she didn't care about face at all. She just wanted to stabilize this hard-won teammate.

"Ah?!"

When Fugaku heard these words, he once doubted his ears and wondered if he had misheard them.

No way?!

How long had it been!

How did they anger Aoba?

However...

Fugaku had his own understanding of this matter. In his opinion, Aoba's pride might have been poked.

As a friend of Aoba.

Fugaku felt that he still had to speak up for Aoba.

Therefore.

After a short period of thought, Fugaku swept his gaze over Saki and Rin. Finally, his gaze landed on Saki.

"Saki, tell me honestly. Did you provoke Aoba?" Fugaku asked seriously.

"I..." Saki was stunned. She did not know if her words had provoked Aoba, but she did feel that what she said was a little inappropriate.

"Saki, RIn, I won't hide it from you. First, Aoba is not that strong. If he were to participate in the Chunin Exams by himself, he would definitely not be able to pass. Therefore, I hope he can participate in the Chunin Exams by forming a team with you two. I hope that you two can take him with you. The other reason is that Aoba is very unconfident, but his self-esteem is quite strong. This is also why he has always refused to form a team. I hope that you will not say anything to stab him." Fugaku said seriously. In his mind, Aoba was the same as he had imagined.

"Strong self-esteem..."

"Not confident..."

"I think I understand!"

After hearing Fugaku's explanation, Saki once again recalled their conversation. Shikaku had already found Aoba, so it was easy to connect these together.

"Brother Fugaku, we were indeed wrong. Now, take us to see Aoba. I must apologize to him, or this misunderstanding that should not have happened will deepen." Saki immediately said.

"Are you sure you want to go now?" After a moment of hesitation, Fugaku said, "Why don't we go tomorrow? You guys are also tired. Go back, rest for a night, and give Aoba some time to calm down."

"No, it must be now. This matter must not be left overnight. Otherwise, it will be difficult for us to return to our original state in the future." Saki shook her head decisively.

"I also think it is best to go now!" Rin also said.

"Well..."

Fugaku was still a little hesitant. He feared that if they went to Aoba too early, it would bring more harm than good.

He still cared a lot about his friend, who he recognized.

However...

When he saw how determined Saki and Rin were, he felt that the two girls had realized their mistake. Perhaps giving them a chance now would be a good solution.

"Alright, come with me. This time, I will accompany you. But I can't let my friend suffer again!" Fugaku said with a serious expression. It was obvious that he had already stood on Aoba's side in front of the two girls.

"Don't worry. We are going to apologize this time. We will not quarrel with Aoba, so there won't be any problems." Saki nodded and said. She values this hard earn opportunity, so she would not waste it so easily now.

"Come with me!"

Fugaku's gaze swept over the two of them, then he nodded and turned to leave.

Then Saki and Rin followed behind Fugaku and left Konoha Military Police Force.

Ten minutes later.

The three of them walked to the entrance of the Anbu dormitory.

They happened to see two figures in front of them. They were Nara Shikaku and Yamanaka Inoichi, who had just arrived.

"Wait..."

Saki suddenly pulled Rin, who was next to her, and stopped for a moment. Because the two of them reacted very quickly, they were not noticed by Shikaku and Inoichi, who were in front of them.

"Huh?"

Fugaku sensed that the two people had stopped, so he also stopped with many question marks on his head.

"What happened?"

Fugaku still did not understand what was going on. He stepped out and stood in front of Saki and Rin. He looked at the two girls in a daze and said, "Aoba's dormitory is up ahead."

"We can't go in now. Brother Fugaku, let's go to the tree over there and hide. Let's see what is going on first." Saki said in a low voice.

"What happened?" Fugaku was still confused.

"There's no time to explain. Brother Fugaku, let's go up the tree first. I'll explain it to you in detail later." Saki said in a low voice.

"Alright." Fugaku nodded. Then, he took the lead, jumped up, and landed directly on the branch. His movements were smooth. There was no obstruction at all. He was very steady.

Immediately after.

Saki and Rin also jumped up.

The Anbu dormitory entrance can be seen from the branches they stood, so they happened to see Shikaku and Inoichi entering the Anbu dormitory.

"Isn't that Shikaku and Inoichi?"

"Are you two avoiding them?"

"It can't be, right?"

Fugaku looked at Saki in confusion. He felt these people were from the same clan, so why were they still avoiding each other?

"Brother Fugaku, there are some things that you don't know about. Let me give you a simple explanation. Our three cousins are in charge of these Chunin Exams. They know that there aren't many people registering for this exam, and they aren't powerful either. But they still said that they hope we don't participate..." Saki explained.

"Not participate?" When Fugaku heard this, he was stunned. Why did he feel that something was wrong? Shouldn't they tell them to hurry up and participate in this kind of thing that didn't have many strong people participating, so they could become a Chunin? It was such a rare opportunity; what was there to wait for? He couldn't help but continue to ask, "Why? There is no reason!"

"Brother Fugaku, why are you so stupid? Isn't we at war now? If we become Chunin, we will go to the battlefield once the war breaks out. Brother Shikaku thinks we are too young, so he doesn't want us to go to the battlefield. He wants to use this method to protect us." Saki explained helplessly. She knew that she should not tell Fugaku about these things, but she felt that Fugaku was not bad. It was not a big problem to tell him.

"I see!"

After hearing Saki's words, Fugaku immediately nodded and instantly understood.

"If it was me, I might do the same. In fact, you should understand them. They are doing this for your own good!"

Fugaku explained for Shikaku and the others. When he heard Saki's words, he immediately thought of Mikoto.

If it was him...

He would not let Mikoto fight for such an opportunity!

Moreover.

He would also think of a way to protect Mikoto and not let her go to the battlefield so he understands Shikaku's behavior.

"But this is not what we want. We don't want to be protected. We want to stand up and help the village when the village is in danger. We don't want to silently hide at home and wait for the result. This is also why we work hard to find teammates to participate in the Chunin Exams." Saki explained again. She did not intend to hide at all. This result was not what she wanted.

"Yes, me too. I want to fight for the village!" Rin nodded as well, her tone extremely resolute.

"I understand!"

Fugaku's expression was extremely serious, and the way he looked at the two girls had already changed.

"You guys are good. If I were your cousin, I might do what Shikaku and the others did, but I will respect your choice even more." Fugaku said.

"That's why you are so great, Brother Fugaku!" Saki said with a smile.

"Then what are Shikaku and the others doing here? They are not here to look for Aoba, are they?" Fugaku did not care about Saki's flattery. Instead, he focused his attention back on this matter. There were still many things that he was not very clear about. He felt that there were still some doubts about this matter. This also had something to do with his work as a Konoha Military Police Force ninja. He wanted to find out more about everything.

"I originally did not want to tell anyone about this, but since Brother Fugaku asked, then I will tell you secretly. However, you must guarantee that you will not tell anyone, including Aoba," Saki said seriously.

"Do you still not trust your Brother Fugaku?" Fugaku immediately said with a straight face. He felt that these words were unnecessary. As Konoha Military Police Force's ninja, he still knew what he could and could not say.

"Actually, not long ago, Brother Shikaku looked for Aoba. This matter should have only been known to Brother Shikaku, Brother Inoichi, Brother Choza, and Aoba. But that day, I accidentally passed by. Just like today, I was hiding in a corner and was not discovered. I heard the whole process directly." Saki said in a deep voice. She still had a very clear impression of this matter. It was just that, at that time, she did not know Aoba. She only saw his appearance for the first time in the barbecue shop.

"What did they say to Aoba?" Fugaku immediately asked seriously. Now, he had realized the seriousness of the matter. It seemed that something had happened that he did not know. Behind these Chunin Exams, there was something that he had yet to notice.

"At that time, Brother Shikaku hoped that Aoba would form a three-person team with us to participate in the Chunin Exams. He also asked him to drag us down. He hoped that we would be eliminated in the end. Then, we would have no way to pass the Chunin Exams and become Chunin." Saki said in a low voice. She knew this evil thing was not very honorable, but there was no way. After all, she had met Shikaku and Inoichi. She could not just brush it off.

"So that's how it is!" Fugaku's face suddenly became ugly. Anyone could see the dissatisfaction on his face, and then he said, "I was wondering why Aoba was so disgusted after hearing the Chunin Exams. It turned out that it hurt his self-esteem here!"

"Brother Fugaku, I'm sorry. It's all because of us. Otherwise, Aoba would not have encountered these..." Saki immediately apologized to Fugaku.

"This matter is not your problem. It is not your fault. I still have some sense of propriety. Now that I understand what is going on let's just wait. I hope they don't go too far!" A cold expression appeared on Fugaku's face. It was obvious that he was dissatisfied with this matter. After Sekai passed away, Aoba could be said to be one of his few good friends. His good friends were treated like this, so he was very angry. He was not in a good mood.

"En..."

Saki nodded. In fact, she was also very dissatisfied with Shikaku's actions. However, she had never told Shikaku about this matter directly. She had only told Rin about it. Now that she had told Fugaku about it, it could be said that she had released all the words she had suppressed in her heart.

...

Dong! Dong! Dong!

A series of heavy knocks sounded. These sounds were very loud and clear. It sounded like a drum and directly woke up the sleeping Aoba.

"Who is it?!"

Aoba furrowed his brows, 'Is there a need to knock on the door like this? Using so much strength? How impolite!'

Dong! Dong! Dong!

There was still a heavy knock on the door in response to Aoba. Through the strength of the knock, it could be determined that the person knocking on the door was not in a good mood.

"???"

A lot of question marks appeared on Aoba's head, but he still got up from the bed and walked toward the door.

He raised his right hand.

He twisted the door lock and opened it.

What greeted him was a fist.

This fist was obviously preparing to knock on the door again, but it hit nothing because the door suddenly opened. However, it did not stop and went straight to Aoba's head.

When Aoba saw this fist did not stop, he also saw the owner of this fist. It was the Shikaku he had seen before.

Good!

He was here to take revenge!

Aoba could clearly feel that Shikaku was angry with him. From the looks of it, he could immediately tell that Shikaku already knew he would participate in the Chunin Exams.

Instantly.

Aoba took a step back.

Moreover, he put on a surprised expression.

"What are you doing?"

Aoba staggered back a step as if it had been carefully calculated.

Shikaku's fist went straight to Aoba's forehead but did not touch Aoba. The distance between the two just happened to be the length of Shikaku's arm's reach.

"Don't use so much force when you knock on the door next time!"

Aoba rolled his eyes at Shikaku as hard as he could. He could tell that the other party was obviously here with ill intentions, so he did not need to be polite to this person.

He just didn't like so many things happening to him now.

But it wasn't that he was easy to bully.

How could he agree to such an obvious act of riding on his head?

"Aoba, I have something to talk to you about. Let's go in and talk!"

After Shikaku deliberately punched him crookedly, he was obviously stunned. He did not expect Aoba would stagger just now, so there was a bit of astonishment in his eyes. It was obviously unexpected.

"Wait a minute!"

Aoba furrowed his brows tightly, and a look of dissatisfaction appeared on his face. If the other party was a bit more polite, he would feel that there was still room for discussion.

"If you have anything to say, let's go out and talk. Don't stay in my room."

After Aoba left these words, he then walked out of his room and directly walked out along the dark corridor.

This kind of action.

It once again broke Shikaku and Inoichi's plan.

They originally wanted to talk to Aoba in his room. Even if they failed, they could still teach Aoba a lesson.

However.

Talk outside.

In public.

On the contrary, it would restrict their action.

However, Aoba had already walked out, so they had to follow him.

So Shikaku and Inoichi could only follow behind Aoba and walked out of the Anbu dormitory.

Soon.

Aoba walked to the Anbu dormitory entrance.

At this time.

It was already dark outside.

He was going to walk a little further, but he felt a sense of being watched.

With Aoba keenly sensed, he sensed that there was someone on the branch.

He immediately turned around and looked back at the Anbu dormitory. The moment he turned around, his line of sight swept across the branch without alerting the people on it.

'Uchiha Fugaku.'

'Nara Saki.'

'Akimichi Rin.'

'It was the three of them.'

All of a sudden, Aoba immediately had a plan in mind. He stood in place and simply did not leave.

But at this time.

A big question mark appeared on the heads of the three people on the branch. They stared at Aoba doubtfully, not knowing that they had been exposed. They were just wondering what Aoba was doing.

The next moment.

Two people walked out of the Anbu dormitory.

These two people were Nara Shikaku and Yamanaka Inoichi.

Shikaku looked around. The surroundings were dark, and it was impossible to see if there was anyone. He immediately shook his head decisively.

"We can't do it here. Let's change locations." Shikaku said.

"It's fine here. If you have something to say, say it. If there's nothing else, I'll go back to sleep." Aoba said without hesitation. His voice was not loud, but he controlled the volume of his voice so that the people on the branches could hear him and let them know that Shikaku was looking for him.

But...

Aoba did not plan to do what Shikaku would ask him. He really did not like the tone of the other party, so even if he could complete what the other party wanted him to do, he would not do it.

"You..." Inoichi became unhappy. He came here without saying a word. However, he instinctively thought that as long as he came, Aoba would have some scruples. However, Aoba did not give him a face at all.

"If you have something to say, say it quickly. I still have to sleep," Aoba said coldly. He did not regard Inoichi as an older brother in the family at all.

"Alright!"

Shikaku sneered. Aoba had already seen through their intentions. Aoba knew why they had come and said that on purpose.

Since that was the case.

He did not plan to beat around the bush.

"Aoba, then I will be frank. We saw your name on the registration form. Shouldn't you explain it to us?" Shikaku stared at Aoba and asked.

As soon as this was said.

Shikaku and Inoichi stared at Aoba together as if they wanted an explanation as if they were asking for a debt.

At the same time.

The three people on the branches were listening to their conversation. Each of them was so focused that they feared missing any details.

"Explain what?" Aoba suddenly grinned. After that, he stared at Shikaku and said, "What does it have to do with you whether I participate or not?"

"It has nothing to do with me if you participate yourself, but if you participate with Saki and Rin, then it has something to do with me!" Shikaku said coldly. When he heard Aoba's tone, he felt very annoyed. His impression of Aoba could be said to be extremely bad.

When the three people on the branches heard this, their expressions changed one after another. Now they could be sure that Shikaku and Inoichi found Aoba because of the Chunin Exams matter.

"Is that so?"

Aoba's indifferent voice slowly sounded, clearly entering everyone's ears, directly attracting everyone's attention to him.

"Then tell me, what does it have to do with you?"

"You did it on purpose!" Inoichi suddenly interrupted. He really couldn't bear it anymore. As the future clan leader of the Yamanaka clan, he was almost completely ignored by Aoba here. Moreover, the attitude of the other party made him extremely unhappy. He then raised his hand, pointed at Aoba, and said, "We are asking you a very serious question. You should be more serious too. Don't put on such a look. It's not interesting at all."

"I also find it not interesting."

After hearing Inoichi's words, Aoba nodded directly. His tone suddenly became even colder.

"Whether I want to participate in the Chunin Exams or not, it is my freedom. It has nothing to do with you. If you two only have these words to say, then you can leave. I won't accompany you!" Aoba's cold voice clearly entered the ears of these people. That cold tone made everyone feel his displeasure.

"Since you say so, then I will also say it!" Shikaku took a step forward and walked in front of Aoba. His eyes stared at Aoba. After that, he lowered his voice and said, "I hope you deliberately lose in this Chunin Exams. If you can do it, I guarantee you can pass the next Chunin Exams!"

"Oh?" The corners of Aoba's mouth curled up in a mocking arc. He asked, "How can you guarantee that?"

"I can let you team up with Hatake Kakashi in the next exam. Hatake Kakashi is the son of Hatake Sakumo and is very powerful. He can take you through Chunin Exams." Shikaku said in a low voice.

"I see!"

The smile on Aoba's face became even wider. He did not expect that Shikaku would talk about Kakashi.

"Sorry, I'm not interested!"
