Chapter 15: Up to 3 Years!
Creak...
The door of Aoba's room in the Anbu's dormitory was pushed open.
The one who appeared in front of Aoba was a ninja wearing a mask.
He did not know how many times he had seen this Anbu's ninja. Every time he saw them, they were wearing a mask and did not know who they were.
"Aoba, Captain Eaton called you over." The Anbu said in a deep voice.
"Yes". Aoba nodded.
"This is for you." After the Anbu finished speaking, he took out a mask from his ninja bag and handed it to Aoba. He added, "Put it on."
"Yes." Aoba took the mask and took a look at it. The mask was white in color and was painted with black and red to make the appearance of a cat face mask.
"Hurry up and go over. I have other things to do, so I won't bring you there." After the Anbu finished speaking, his figure flashed and disappeared.
"Yes."
Aoba looked at the empty corridor in front of him and slowly replied. Then, he picked up the mask and put it on his face.
After putting on the mask.
Aoba finally had a feeling that he was an Anbu ninja.
Except for his eyes.
His entire face was completely hidden under the mask.
This made him feel an indescribable sense of security.
"Looks like I have to wear more masks in the future!"
Aoba suddenly felt that this feeling of covering his face to hide his identity was very good. It was especially suitable for a person with a system like him.
There was no time to waste.
Aoba quickly arrived at the location of Konohagakure Intelligence Division's small black room.
At this moment.
The small black room had already become a bright room.
The candles on the surrounding walls were lit up, dispersing the darkness here.
This was the first time Aoba had seen the small black room being bright. The torture instruments hidden in the dark were completely exposed in his sight.
There were more than a dozen people gathered in the bright small black room.
Apart from Eaton, who was wearing a black windbreaker, everyone was wearing masks and looked particularly formal.
After Aoba came.
No one spoke to him.
He also did not speak to these people.
The entire small black room was very quiet.
The air pressure was a little low.
Aoba found a corner at the back and stood there silently, waiting for the time to pass.
Ten minutes later.
Anbu Ninjas came in one after another.
There were nearly thirty people in this small black room.
"It's about time."
All of a sudden.
Eaton spoke.
The voice clearly reached everyone's ears.
Suddenly, all the Ninjas in the small black room turned their attention to him.
"Today, I called everyone here to have an internal meeting."
Eaton's low voice made everyone feel the seriousness of the matter.
Aoba stood at the back.
His gaze focused on Eaton through the mask.
He listened carefully to the latter's words.
All of Anbu's Ninjas present were in the same position, listening to the leader's words.
"Almost half of the people present have experienced the second Ninja War!"
Eaton's gaze swept over Anbu's ninjas.
Although everyone was wearing masks, these masks were not too big of a cover for people who were familiar with them for a long time.
"You people who have experienced the second ninja war know how our Konohagakure Intelligence Division operates during the war!"
"But there are still half of the newcomers here who have not experienced the war and still in a state of lack of experience."
"That's why I'm here to give you a reminder."
"Make your body adapt to the state of war as soon as possible. "
"And then..."
"I'll reveal some more information to you!"
"According to the intelligence we obtained through the spies and interrogation over the past few days."
"The war might come in the near future!"
Eaton's voice became much louder. The content he spoke seemed to be able to penetrate one's heart, and everyone present couldn't help but cry out in alarm.
"Hu~"
The ninjas in the small black room were all staring at Eaton, and their breathing became rapid.
War!
Such a word.
No one was willing to hear it easily!
Whether it was those who had experienced war or those who had never experienced war, they all knew what this meant.
That was pain!
As long as there was war, there would be pain!
It was unavoidable!
For a moment.
The atmosphere became serious.
They all knew.
Captain Eaton would not joke about such things.
"I believe you all still have some doubts!"
"Let me give you a simple explanation."
"During the second Ninja World War, our Fire Country, Wind Country, and Earth Country all had varying degrees of consumption and damage."
"The decline in our combat strength forced us to stop and recuperate."
"But..."
"According to the latest intelligence report"
"All signs indicate that."
"The Kumogakure is constantly strengthening the military preparations and is eyeing the three great countries of the Fire Wind and Earth like a tiger watching its prey!"
"Plus..."
"We, the three great powers of the Fire Wind and Earth, are not on the same side. There are also conflicts between us."
"If this continues..."
"I guess..."
"At most three years!"
"The third Ninja World War is going to spread in the Ninja World!"
Eaton said with certainty. This was not his nonsense, but an inference based on the information he had and where he was.
"So."
"I called you here this time."
"The main purpose is for you all to be alert!"
"No matter when the war begins."
"We, Konohagakure Intelligence Division, have to deal with the task of obtaining information!"
"Do you understand?"
Eaton's voice grew louder and louder, giving Aoba the feeling of a general mobilization meeting.
"Understood!"
All the people present immediately responded loudly. Everyone was full of fighting spirit, as if they were ready.
"Dismissed!"
Eaton casually waved his hand, indicating that everyone could return to their respective posts.
"Yes!"
After everyone responded, they dispersed.
Konohagakure Intelligence Division was already a mature department.
There was no need for everything to go through Eaton's instructions.
It was completely normal.
The members of the division each had their own duties, and everyone had their own tasks.
All of a sudden.
The audience dispersed.
There were only three people left in the small black room.
In addition to Aoba who had not left.
There was also a ninja Anbu wearing a mask, as well as Eaton, who was wearing a black windbreaker.
"You must be Aoba!"
The Anbu ninja who was wearing a mask turned his head and looked at Aoba. Through the eyes of the mask, he could see a pair of dark eyes, but he could not see any expression, and he could not easily detect the emotions of the latter.
