Chapter 14: Be Cautious!
Chapter 14: Be Cautious!
"You are welcome!"
Eaton had already prepared a lesson and wanted to educate this newcomer who looked triumphant.
But…
He didn't even think of it. Not only was this newcomer not floating, but he had a very clear understanding of himself.
That's right!
Aoba was not qualified to be a team leader!
There were 11 people in the sensory ninja in the Analysis Division. Any of the 10 people ranked before Aoba was more qualified to be the team leader than Aoba!
Although Aoba succeeded in finding 6 people who met the standard to be a spy from 23 children, this was a basic exercise among the sensory ninjas in the Analysis Division.
Any sensory ninja that could do such a thing does not mean they were qualified enough!
Besides, Yamanaka Yuta has no intention to retire at all!
"There is nothing else to do here. You have explored 23 children in a row, so I think you are exhausted. I will give you three days off. For these three days, you can think carefully about whether you want to be the team leader or not." Eaton said in a deep voice.
"It doesn't take three days at all. I can answer you now. I just want to be a subordinate with peace of mind!" Aoba replied without hesitation and added, "Captain Eaton, I don't need a holiday. I'm on standby at any time, waiting to be assing a task!"
"You..." Eaton made a regretful look on the surface, but he began to truly appreciate Aoba in his heart.
"Captain Eaton, I'm going back first." Aoba saluted to Eaton, then turned around and left this small black room.
Eaton looked deeply at Aoba's back, not knowing why there was a certain feeling in his heart that he felt that this young man was exceptional.
But…
He couldn't find anything unusual.
"Aoba has a poor physical condition and no self-motivation. He looks like a salted fish waiting to die!"
Eaton muttered to himself, then shook his head and stopped thinking about these things.
"Aoba will officially enter the sensory team after three days. Let's see if there is anything special about him at that time!"
Eaton's face became cold again.
Aoba has passed the preliminary examination in his heart, and he could get in touch with other Anbu.
Aoba was in a state of almost isolation before.
This was not only for Aoba to have an idea of accomplishing the task very well, but also not to let Aoba get any hints from those seniors.
The most important was…
A team member who has not passed his review cannot meet other Konohagakure Intelligence Division members.
You know.
Everyone in the Intelligence Division holds vital information.
So selection of any team member must be strict and serious.
...
Aoba returned to his dormitory.
After going in, he closed the door carefully.
"Huh..."
Aoba sighed heavily. What happened just now did not make him so nervous, and it was just a newcomer test.
After clearly knowing Eaton's purpose, he watched the latter set up a series of routines and couldn't help but sigh.
"The Ninja World is too dangerous!"
Aoba even more deeply realized the intrigue between ninjas. He had to go through so many levels of tests just to enter an Intelligence Division, let alone those spies!
"I have passed the preliminary test now..."
"I don't know what test is waiting for me after entering the team."
"I must be careful!"
"If I rush it, it's over!"
"I will do things steadily, don't want anything, and don't fight for anything!"
Aoba was more deeply aware of the importance of being patient and a supreme-level salted fish. No one should think of finding a flaw in him.
...
In the next three days.
Eaton really didn't assign Aoba any task, and no one would bother Aoba.
It was exactly in the little black room agreement.
He was waiting for Aoba to "change his mind" and take over the Captain position of the Analysis Division.
But.
Aoba did not give any response at all.
These three days, Aoba has been on standby in Anbu's dormitory and was no different from his usual performance.
He didn't exercise, didn't try ninjutsu, and didn't do anything that might reveal any flaws.
His most urgent task was to pass the examination of the Intelligence Division, become an official team member, and stay in the torture division for a long time.
These three days, Aoba was not as idle as it seems on the surface.
He looked at Eaton's memories repeatedly in his mind, not knowing how many times.
He carefully understands the nearly 30 years of torture experience of the torture expert.
For him, these memories were his biggest golden finger.
This was the power of intelligence.
...
The fourth day.
According to the normal agreement, Eaton should send someone to look for him to perform the task. But, this day was no different from the previous few days.
Nothing happened.
He was like a forgotten existence silently guarding the Anbu dormitory.
The fifth day.
Still the same.
Sixth day.
No one still came.
"Captain Eaton, you are really cruel!"
Aoba was sitting on the bed, his mouth curled up with a wry smile. Even someone like him who had memories to read felt that the waiting was too boring.
If you change it to someone else.
I'm afraid he would not be able to hold it anymore!
But according to Eaton's memory, he knew.
This was testing the endurance of his subordinates.
After all, he was very optimistic about you before, and then he gave you three days, but when the three days came, you didn't take the initiative to find him to accept the job.
In that case, he won't be optimistic about you anymore!
This was what you missed!
Missed was a missed!
This was the emotion Eaton wanted to convey, and coupled with a long period of neglect, it was almost as cold as violence.
Even Aoba can't stand this kind of meaningless time consumption, let alone those teenagers who don't know the situation.
Every minute, every second, was constantly destroying their mentality.
...
Until the tenth day, the sound of footsteps finally came from outside the Anbu dormitory where Aoba was.
Knock Knock Knock...
This was followed by a series of knocks on the door.
Aoba has never felt that this knock on the door was so sweet, like hearing the best music.
But, at the same time, He suppressed the excitement that came out of instinct and quickly calmed down.
"Be cautious!"
Aoba silently warned himself in his heart that he knew that what was waiting for him was the test from the sensory team of the Konohagakure Intelligence Division.
