Fear and Caution!

This was the first time Aoba has used the secret technique to probe the emotions of others.

The Chakra moved along his lower abdomen to the palm of his right hand, carrying his not-so-strong mental power and reaching a frequency synchronized with the spirit of the lethargic child.

In an instant, Aoba felt a lot of complicated feelings.

Bravery.

Fear.

Sacrifice.

Dedication.

These emotions were intertwined with the memories he had just acquired, and Aoba could feel the child more deeply in a three-dimensional way.

He has more courage than ordinary people, and he was willing to take risks to be a spy for the village.

This child certainly also has a fear of belonging to this age.

Fear of the unknown.

Fear of death.

It's just that these fears were all overwhelmed by courage.

Besides, there was also the spirit of dedication to the village and the heart that had already been prepared for death.

This was a very rational child!

Aoba felt the child's emotions and couldn't help but awe.

"Captain Eaton, I think he can."

Aoba retracted his hand, and the expression on his face became very solemn. From the child's memory just now, he saw several other children lying here.

Captain Eaton did not lie.

No one was forcing them.

They volunteered to be spies and hoped to contribute to the village through their own strength!

This spirit...

Aoba does not have it, but he admired it very much.

"Okay."

Eaton nodded directly, without asking any questions, and agreed with Aoba's judgment on the spot.

Aoba walked towards the next child, raised his hand, and stroked the child's forehead.

Hum!

Aoba's body trembled slightly.

"Ding Dong! Successfully read the memory! Obtained, Mental Power Increased!"

Aoba's mind resounded with familiar electronic sounds.

But, this time, the increase was different from just now, and it became mental power.

It also does not have any ninjutsu improvement.

At the same time, a stream of memories flashed through his mind like a movie.

Perseverance.

Bravery.

Decisive.

Cautiousness.

This child's emotions presented were stronger than those of the previous child.

This completely exceeded Aoba's expectations.

He thought that the last child was doing very well, but he still fears belonging to his age group compared with this child.

This kid was absolutely fearless.

"Is there really such a person?"

Aoba took a deep breath. He had never thought that such a small child would have such a great mindset.

Was this the ninja world?

How many people were walking in the darkness, bearing the brilliant light on their backs?

"Captain Eaton, he's fine."

Aoba said in a deep voice. After finishing speaking, he took a deep look at the second child and remembered the appearance of this child in his heart.

"Okay."

Eaton still just nodded without making any comments.

Aoba walked to the third child with a heavy heart, raised his hand, and pressed it to the third child's forehead.

Hum!

Aoba's body trembled slightly, and at the same time, a crisp electronic alert sounded in his mind.

"Ding Dong! Successfully read the memory! Obtained, Chakra increased!

A faint warm current erupted in Aoba's body, increasing the Chakra that he could use.

Aoba immediately used the secret technique to probe the child's emotions.

This time.

Aoba felt it clearly.

The mood of this child was similar to that of the first child. He was very brave and prepared for sacrifice, but there was still a fear deep in his heart.

After a while, Aoba faintly realized the problem.

Maybe.

The fear their feeling right now was like a time bomb deeply buried in the children's hearts.

If something happens in the future...

It was very likely that they would do something very impulsive.

Such as self-sacrifice!

A way to keep Konoha secret. After all, he has already made up his mind to die.

But…

Compared to the second child.

Aoba feels that he was less cautious.

In his opinion.

If facing the same problem.

The first child and the third child may sacrifice themselves when they cannot resolve it.

But the second child may turn the danger into a breeze and continue to complete the task.

Or…

With such a cautious character as the second child, there would be no problem at all.

...

After thinking for a while, Aoba raised his hand, said nothing and

walked directly towards the fourth child.

"Is he not loyal enough?"

Eaton looked at Aoba's behavior and suddenly became curious, so he asked.

"No."

Aoba stopped and shook his head, staring at Eaton.

"Captain Eaton."

"I was sloppy just now."

"I take back my word that the first two are suitable."

"I will check all these 23 children after that..."

"I'll make the final decision!"

"It's not that they are not loyal enough."

"But I have to choose the most suitable candidate among them!"

Aoba said seriously.

Since he was given such a task, he would be responsible for these children.

Now I know that these children were willing and dedicated to being spies.

He has to choose the most suitable person among them.

This was also to protect those who were not suitable for spies.

And loyalty was not enough to become a spy!

"Okay."

Eaton nodded, the corner of his mouth curled up with an imperceptible smile, and his eyes were filled with more intense appreciation.

...

In the next time.

Aoba read the memories and probed the emotions of these children in turn.

This made him gradually discover a pattern.

Those children who were very courageous and determined to die but had a bit of fear in their hearts, when he used the mind-reading system to read their memories, the rewards he got were Chakra increased.

And those children who were more cautious in their emotions were obviously more intelligent. When he read their memories, he was rewarded with a Mental Powe increase.

In a sense, the mind-reading system could determine whether a child could better engage in the spying work.

"Huh..."

After Aoba checked all 23 children, he took a deep breath, trying to calm his mood.

After a few minutes, Aoba raised his head and focused his eyes on Eaton.

"Captain Eaton, I have someone to choose!"

Aoba's tone was very firm. The candidate were judged using the memory he acquired and their current emotion.
