Right Under Your Feet, Seeped Into the Ground

Aoba didn't turn around.

But he could feel the condensed chakra in the line of sight behind him.

By relying on his body's instinct.

He could sense that Sekai had already opened his Sharingan.

Moreover, his gaze was full of caution.

"Brother Sekai, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand?"

Aoba slowly turned his head. He was still wearing a cat face mask. The moment he turned around, his eyes directly stared at the other party's toes. He did not look at Sekai's eyes directly.

For the Uchiha Clan Sharingan, he was very curious.

One must know that Sekai was an Uchiha Clan jonin, so his strength was not to be underestimated. Moreover, he possessed a three tomoe Sharingan.

If they were to look at each other accidentally.

A genjutsu or something might hit him.

Then the gains would not make up for the losses.

"Since you can't understand, then I will slowly say it until you understand!"

Sekai stared at Aoba. Even though Aoba was still wearing a mask, in front of him, this was nothing. As long as Aoba looked at him a little, he could pull Aoba into the genjutsu world.

"When we first met, if I remember correctly, it was during the time of the disappearance of people in the village and the floating corpses river case."

Sekai spoke slowly. He deliberately slowed down his speech to prevent Aoba from saying anything that he did not hear clearly.

As he spoke these words.

He stared at Aoba.

At this time.

He suddenly felt that Aoba's mask was very troublesome.

Not only could it help Aoba cover up some of his vision, but it also made him unable to see Aoba's expression.

"You mistook me for Fugaku."

"At that time, I didn't think too much about it."

"Later, no matter how I thought about it, I felt that something was not quite right."

"I'm so much more handsome than Fugaku."

"How could you admit your mistake so easily?"

When Sekai said this, his tone suddenly paused. He took a light breath and slowly exhaled as if he was calming himself down.

"Then..."

"This made me think of a possibility!"

"You are not a fan of Fugaku at all!"

"Or should I say..."

"You don't know Fugaku at all!"

Sekai raised his hand and pointed at Aoba. From his posture, it was as if he had discovered some secret, and the tone of his voice became louder and louder.

"What is your purpose in getting close to Fugaku!"

Sekai's eyes suddenly widened, and his aura became very fierce.

Since the last time he was in Ramen Ichiraku Noodle House, he found that Aoba took the initiative to carry the heavy box, but he did not do it. He felt that Aoba was hiding something.

At that time, he was a little cautious.

Later, he pulled Fugaku to wait outside and watch Aoba as he left. However, he did not see Aoba holding the box but an umbrella.

This itself was full of doubts.

From then on.

Sekai felt more and more that something was wrong!

When he thought of when Kenji disappeared, Akaru asked him to go to Konohagakure Intelligence Division to invite Aoba over, but Eaton stopped him.

These things were connected together.

It made his mind constantly spread out.

He thought of many things.

They were all things he did not dare to think about before.

"Brother Sekai, you are joking. I am really a fan of Brother Fugaku. You also saw it. Brother Fugaku even gave me an autograph." There was a hint of helplessness in Aoba's voice.

When Sekai heard Aoba's words, a sneer appeared on his face.

"Act!"

"Continue acting!"

"You said that you are a fan of Fugaku..."

"It's one thing for you to lie to Fugaku, but you actually dare to lie to me!"

Sekai said disdainfully. His face was full of wisdom, and he seemed to have forgotten the fact that he had been fooled for so long.

"I didn't lie to you..." Aoba spread out his hands in a helpless posture, but he was thinking about something else in his heart.

"Hahaha..."

Sekai immediately burst out laughing as if he had heard something funny.

"Now you are still acting. Don't you know that I am a Konoha Military Police Force member?"

"Before you appeared, Fugaku had never heard of your name. He didn't know your existence at all!"

"But since that day..."

"You will often appear in front of us!"

"What is your purpose in trying so hard to get close to our Uchiha clan?"

Sekai asked Aoba again.

As he said this, he went through the matter again.

He found that...

The more he sorted out this matter, the more suspicious he felt that Aoba was!

Right now, he had to clarify things here.

If Aoba really had any problems.

Then he would take Aoba to Konoha Military Police Force for investigation!

"Brother Sekai, what you said is a bit exaggerated. When did I take the initiative to approach your Uchiha clan? It is clearly your people everywhere. No matter how I hide, I can't avoid them!"

Aoba shook his head helplessly.

Just now, Sekai's words directly made him speechless.

He knew that Sekai saw something.

In his mind, he was quickly thinking about how dangerous Sekai was and how to deal with this matter properly.

But...

Aoba protested against Sekai, saying that he took the initiative to come into contact with Uchiha Clan.

There was no such thing!

This was all his imagination!

Just like how he came to me now, how could Sekai say that Aoba took the initiative to approach him!

A deep sense of helplessness arose in Aoba's heart.

"You don't need to quibble!"

Sekai could not listen to Aoba at all. They were not the kind of people who could listen to other people's explanations. They were completely determined in their hearts.

For this kind of thing like fooling an Uchiha Clan.

The best person to do it was Black Zetsu.

He directly followed what the people of the Uchiha clan wanted to hear and then displayed the self-righteous characteristics of the Uchiha clan to the extreme.

"Right now, you only need to answer my questions."

"If there is anything I am not satisfied with."

"I will immediately take you to Konoha Military Police Force."

"Let Akaru-sama interrogate you personally!"

Sekai now held a great deal of hostility towards Aoba. In his heart, he firmly believed that Aoba was intentionally making contact with the Uchiha clan. Even Kenji's disappearance might have something to do with Aoba.

"Where did you go so late at night?!"

Sekai looked at Aoba coldly and directly asked Aoba what he was most curious about.

Not long ago, he was patrolling.

From a distance, he saw Aoba and Fugaku enter the small forest.

Later, Fugaku came back.

But he did not see Aoba.

When he came to Konohagakure Intelligence Division's side, he met a ninja of Konohagakure Intelligence Division. It was the person guarding the entrance at that time.

Sekai asked that person about Aoba's dormitory and found that Aoba was not in the dormitory. Then he had been secretly observing, and only now did he see that Aoba had come back.

"Brother Sekai..."

Aoba shook his head. His dark eyes became indifferent. He still stared at Sekai's toes, but his mood had become unhappy.

"Is this how you, Konoha Military Police Force, do things?"

"I'm going out for a walk tonight..."

"Do I have to be interrogated?"

When Aoba said these words, his tone had become colder and colder.

"I will report your matter to Akaru-sama later. I believe that at that time, Akaru-sama will naturally judge whether I will act according to the rules!" Sekai did not buy Aoba's words at all.

"Alright."

Aoba nodded, then looked in the direction of the forest. The corners of his mouth behind the mask curled up slightly.

"Since Brother Sekai wants to know what I have done."

"Then come with me."

"I'll take you to see what's going on!"

After Aoba finished speaking, he immediately started walking toward the forest.

"Stop!"

Sekai looked at Aoba coldly and immediately stopped him. He said, "Where are you going?"

"I'll take you to see."

Aoba's face behind the mask became gloomy. He really didn't want to hear this person shouting in front of Anbu's dormitory.

If he had shouted a few more times and woke the others up, it would be too troublesome!

"You just need to answer my questions honestly. Don't play any tricks with me. I won't take your tricks!" Sekai said coldly. He had already identified that Aoba had some problems and thought that Aoba's words were just an excuse.

"Just now, there were some Kumogakure intruders. I found them. They are on the east side of the forest. If you don't believe me, I can take you to see them." Aoba could only throw out a topic and lead Sekai to that side.

"Kumogakure intruders?"

Sekai frowned slightly. He looked deeply at Aoba and suddenly thought of Kenji that night. He felt a sense of deja vu.

"Lead the way!"

Sekai initially did not want to walk into the forest, but he had to confirm whether this was true or not. He could only follow Aoba's instructions.

"Okay."

Aoba did not say anything else. Step by step, he walked in the direction of the forest. His footsteps were not fast, and Sekai could catch up with him.

At this time.

Sekai did not follow him directly.

There was a flash of hesitation in his eyes. His brain quickly turned, and his eyes focused on Aoba's back.

'Could this be a trap?'

Sekai was secretly puzzled, but the moment he was puzzled, the pride in his heart convinced him again.

'What would a trap do?'

'What can a trap do?'

In the end, Aoba was just a mere genin!

Even if Aoba hid some hidden secrets, they were only things on the level of identity and purpose and could not directly affect strength.

Most importantly...

Sekai was very clear that he had suddenly come to find Aoba and did not give Aoba any time to react.

Even if Aoba wanted to set up a trap, he would definitely not be able to set it up in advance.

Because of these reasons.

Sekai immediately took a step forward.

He followed.

He was ready to see what kind of medicine Aoba had in his gourd.

All of a sudden.

Aoba and Sekai, one in front and one behind, walked into the forest one after another.

As they went deeper and deeper into the forest.

The surroundings became quieter and quieter.

Gradually.

Time slowly passed.

The two of them walked towards the depths of the forest. Neither of them spoke, so the atmosphere became heavy during this time.

Sekai had been staring at Aoba, maintaining a high level of vigilance.

After a while.

Aoba brought Sekai to the place where he had just fought Kumogakure.

He stopped and stood where he was.

The ground here was still a little dark

"The Kumogakure intruder came from here just now." Aoba suddenly spoke in a very calm tone.

"Where are they?"

Sekai looked around and did not hear any movement. The forest was as quiet as usual.

"It's right under your feet. It has seeped into the ground." Aoba replied indifferently.

"You dare to trick me?"

When Sekai heard Aoba's reply, he immediately felt a surge of anger. This kind of low-level teasing made him think that he had lost face.
