Chapter 518: Interlude
Dark area.
Sakura Haruno has been here for more than a year, and although she has rarely come here recently, she is still familiar with the path.
The dark part is a place with a lot of rules and strict rules.
However, in many cases, the rules set by people will automatically fail when facing characters above a certain level, just like ...... Well, for example, Sakura Haruno didn't wear a mask to hide her identity, she didn't wear a dark uniform, and she didn't have a reason to enter and leave the dark building, but the girl walked in with such a big grin, and no one stopped her.
On the contrary, the two shadows guarding the door nodded respectfully: "Sakura-sama Haruno." ā
People in each circle will consciously or unconsciously arrange a place for others and themselves.
And Sakura Haruno belongs to the top of the food chain even in the elite upper ninja circle, so the people in the dark circle seem funny to call an underage girl "adult", but in fact, the logic behind it is very clear and clear.
Although Sakura Haruno herself doesn't have much of a big shot.
"Please don't call me ...... that"
Sakura Haruno was a little embarrassed, she was only fifteen years old, and she was called an adult, and she felt uncomfortable.
"Just call me Sakura. Or just call me Sakura Haruno. ā
After a few polite sentences, he entered the door.
Because there has been no big war for more than ten years, the ninjas who have been in peace for a long time have also begun to pay attention to connections...... It's hard to say if that's a good thing.
She went to Shino first.
- That guy goes to the small examination room to make a cameo appearance as a rookie examiner whenever he is idle, so it's the best to find.
"Sasuke has been working in the interrogation department recently, doing the work of interrogating the former root ninja, and it is estimated that now he either has a task or goes to practice by himself. Shino, who hadn't appeared in a long time, said, "Do you remember the location?"
"Of course. The girl nodded, and then disappeared in front of Shino in an instant, "Thanks, see you later!"
"Wait...... Why are you in such a hurry to leave?" Shino's hand was only halfway out, and Sakura Haruno had already disappeared from his range of perception.
The last time the two met was at Xiyan's house last month.
So she can't stop and make small talk?
Looking at the direction where the girl was gone, Shino blinked: "This guy ...... Won't it ...... Probably not, right?"
"Tut-tut. ā
The Interrogation Section is located in a small remote building in the Dark District, which is connected to a prison built on the basement level, so it also seems to be tainted with a somewhat eerie and dark atmosphere.
Because of the special nature of the interrogation work, this department does not pay much attention to the combat effectiveness of the personnel, but pays more attention to the personnel's ability to review, observe and illusion - of course, the white eye and the writing wheel eye are the most popular.
So it's not surprising that Mori Ibiki would lend Hinata and Sasuke here at the same time.
"Alright, Ekin, take No. 28 down. Ibikimori's cold voice sounded emotionlessly in the interrogation room.
When the No. 28 original root ninja was taken away, the expression on Ibiki's face softened, and he looked at the two young people sitting on the side: "How is it?
Sasuke wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead with his hand, gasping for air in small gulps, so tired that he couldn't speak at all.
All morning, he used the Sharingan Illusion in conjunction with Ibihi's speech and interrogation skills to try to break through the psychological defenses of the interrogator.
Even if the illusion itself is not loaded, and the number of times it can be used is enough, it is enough to exhaust Sasuke out of breath.
Hinata also nodded silently.
She was also covered in sweat, and she didn't necessarily feel much easier.
Sasuke is in charge of performing illusions, so the task of observing Chakra has to be completed by her, who has white eyes.
Although the burden of the white eye is much easier than that of the writing wheel, it can't last long - Sasuke still has room to rest, and Hinata has to keep the white eye on to prevent the interrogator from secretly performing secret arts.
After opening the white eyes for a morning, Hinata was also tired enough.
But it can't be helped. It's hard to deal with this kind of particularly stubborn, brainwashed former root ninja with a lot of brainwashing, but based on Tsunade's concept of healing and saving people, it's not good to be heavy on these people who may become companions in the future.
Ibiki also found it tricky.
At present, he has no good way, so he can only grind slowly, which is hard for the two young people who have been seconded.
"How's it going?
Ibiki asked.
The two were silent for a moment.
Hinata's words, "Let's rest for a day," stuck in her throat and couldn't speak, she resisted the urge to shake her head and glanced at Sasuke.
It just so happened that Sasuke also looked over.
Two sharp lines of sight suddenly collided in the air.
"IāI'm okay. Sasuke gasped and gritted his teeth as he burst out the words.
Can Sasuke still hold on?
Hinata was stunned for a moment, then gritted her teeth, her eyes becoming extremely determined.
"I ...... I'm okay too!"
The Hyuga family must not lose to the Uchiha family!
She Hinata just doesn't want to lose to Sasuke!
The momentum on the white-eyed girl's body burned, and she stood up suddenly and said, "I can hold on any longer!"
The determination is commendable.
However, the problem was that she had long since lost her physical strength, so she stood up suddenly, and in an instant her feet went weak and fell backwards.
Then the back of his head hit something soft and a little awkward.
"Huh?!" Hinata was stunned.
This familiar touch, is it-
"In addition to insisting on being strong," Sakura Haruno suddenly appeared behind Hinata, reached out to catch her, and smiled, "What are you still holding onto?"
With that, she helped Hinata to a chair and sat down.
"You're back, Sakura-chan. Sasuke leaned on the table and said weakly.
"Hmm. Sakura Haruno nodded.
"Came back in the morning. Then when the task was handed over, he was also criticized by Master Tsunade. The girl pouted.
"So, Sakura Haruno, you just finished reporting your mission and went straight to them?" Ibiki quipped, "So anxious?"
"It's urgent. Sakura Haruno replied.
Then he looked at Sasuke, "So, Sasuke, come out with me." ā
Sasuke dragged his tired body out of the building, basking in the sun against the wall, and asked lazily, "What are you looking for me?"
Usually, he would never make such a lazy gesture, but at the moment, he is exhausted, and he can't care about any image matters.
"Go to your house. Sakura Haruno looked around before whispering.
"Huh?"
"Remember the scroll I gave you for safekeeping when I left......" Sakura Haruno leaned closer and whispered to him, "I'm going to use it urgently." ā
Sasuke frowned.
The girl's breath as she spoke made his ears itch.
He shrank his head, thought for a moment, and simply stuffed the key to the girl: "I'm very tired, and I have to continue working in the afternoon, so I won't go back...... Go get it yourself, and I'll return the key when it's gone!"
In order to meet Hinata's challenge in the afternoon, Sasuke must recuperate, and the honor of the Uchiha cannot be lost in his hands!
"The scroll is placed in the corner of the hall, in a very conspicuous place, you will see. ā
"Also, don't rummage through my stuff!"
Sakura Haruno looked at the key in her hand and tugged at the corners of her mouth: "You also trust me enough...... Okay, then you can rest. ā
She went to retrieve the scroll and didn't mention it.
After retrieving the scroll, Sakura Haruno made a beeline for the outskirts of Konoha and traced up a branch of the Minamiga River to her secret underground base.
Open the scroll and inject the originally reserved spiritual power into the split body to activate the split body.
The clone wakes up from the table.
She opened her eyes, and a pair of beautiful black eyes suddenly turned into a strange blood red, and a few magatama jade flowed slowly, and then, Chakra fluctuated again, and the writing wheel eye of the three hook jade evolved into a kaleidoscope writing wheel eye.
The clone climbed out of bed and stared at Sakura Haruno's four-cornered windmill-like eyes.
"It actually woke me up...... split retrieved his memory, his face a little solemn, "Did you have any trouble?"
"I was in the Land of Thunder, and I encountered a very strange and powerful illusion ......," Sakura Haruno said slowly, "Although I cracked that spell, I need to use the power of the Kaleidoscope Writing Wheel Eye to confirm whether the effect of the illusion has really disappeared." ā
"What if you were actually affected by that illusion?" asked the split.
Sakura Haruno glanced up at the split.
"So...... Just use another god on me once!"
