The group of people made a lot of noise for a long time, and when it was quite late at night, they came out of the barbecue restaurant. The nine people walked in a very loose line, and under the two rows of dim street lights, their dark shadows were extremely long.
Everyone walked on the sparse street, laughing and joking, but Shikamaru unconsciously slowed down his pace, and slowly approached Aoyama who was walking at the end of the line.
"Aoyama, is Akatsuki still not solved?" Shikamaru came to Aoyama's side, lowered his voice, and quietly asked.
Aoyama heard Shikamaru and her heart jumped, and she looked at Shikamaru and said casually, "Why are you suddenly asking this? Didn't we already talk about this matter very … "
"In other words, it's very powerful, right? I was wondering why Naruto followed Jiraiya -sama to train … "Shikamaru muttered, ignoring Aoyama's cover, and at the same time explained how he guessed it.
Kiba has only released a part of the information selectively, and they didn't publicize the Rinnegan and Uchiha Madara. Both of them are too sensitive, and there is no evidence, so the credibility of the information is not high, so they simply covered it up, and only said that the remnants of the Akatsuki are roaming in the ninja world.
There is also one more thing, the name Uchiha Madara has an extraordinary meaning for Kiba. He and the First Hokage created Kiba Village together, and he has the identity of the founder, but later chose to betray the village, and finally died in the hands of the First Hokage. Regarding this ambitious and ruthless person, the elders of Kiba are quite afraid.
When they heard that Uchiha Madara is still alive, no matter who it is, their first thought is not to believe it, but the Sharingan can't be faked, and Danzō also fell in the hands of Uchiha Madara, the high-level people of Kiba are under a lot of pressure, especially the older generation. Otherwise, Jiraiya wouldn't be in such a hurry to take Naruto to train. To put it bluntly, it's all because of the name Uchiha Madara.
Aoyama, out of some considerations, didn't use the memory of his previous life to talk about this matter. Even if he revealed the identity of Obito, there will be no benefits. On the contrary, the name of Madara can make the village maintain a high level of vigilance, which is beneficial and harmless, so he chose not to ask about it....
The influence of Madara's name is in all aspects. Konoha's top management felt the pressure, and naturally, it fell into the eyes of the subordinates. Now the atmosphere in the Hokage Building is indescribably strange. Shikamaru is a man with superhuman observation. Of course, he noticed this phenomenon.
After thinking about it, Shikamaru didn't disturb Shihisa who has been very busy recently, but chose to ask Aoyama for information.
"Your nose is really sharp!" Aoyama shrugged, and didn't deny it. "By the way, keep this to yourself, and don't spread it out. The enemy is very difficult to deal with."
Shikamaru was dazed for a second, and seeing Aoyama's serious expression, his heart tightened. "Is he that powerful?"
"Yes, very powerful …" Aoyama hesitated for a second, and looked around. Naruto was talking and laughing with Sakura, and no one noticed that he and Shikamaru were behind them.
"Uchiha Madara … Although I don't know whether it's true or not, he's very powerful. This guy is the mastermind behind the Akatsuki. Shikamaru, if you go out to carry out a mission, you have to be very careful. You can't make up for the difference with the enemy's strategy," Aoyama said quietly.
After thinking for a while, Aoyama decided to tell Shikamaru. According to Shikamaru's intelligence, if he really wanted to know the truth, he could always get the information from others. Therefore, it was better for him to tell them, and at the same time, emphasize the power of the enemy, in case Shikamaru and the others make a mistake.
"Hey, Aoyama, Shikamaru, what are you two whispering to each other again?" Ino suddenly pounced on Aoyama and Shikamaru's necks and asked with a smile.
"It's always like this when we were in the ninja school. You two always like to hang out in private … Don't tell me you two are …" Ino pretended to be nervous, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
Damn it! Aoyama couldn't help but roll his eyes. He was a straight man.
"Ino, what are you talking about? I don't have those weird hobbies. " Shikamaru refuted with annoyance. They were teammates, and they were very familiar with each other's temper, so they didn't feel restrained when talking to each other.
"Huh? Is that so? Hehehe … "Ino laughed and patted onto Shikamaru's back, causing Shikamaru to stagger." Well, well, let's just treat it as that so. "
"What do you mean by 'just treat it as that so'?" Aoyama glared at Ino, and the latter laughed and blinked his eyes. He wasn't afraid at all.
At the fork in the road, everyone spread out in twos and threes, waved their hands and greeted each other, then returned back to their own homes.
Aoyama strolled leisurely, he wasn't in a hurry to return home. The barbecued meat that he ate just now was a bit too strong, and walking a bit more would help with digestion.
The night wind blew gently, and the trees at the side of the street rustled. There wasn't a single person on the street.
"Why do I feel that … something isn't right!" Aoyama scratched his head and stopped walking. He sized up the surrounding environment. The greyish white walls, the dim street lights, and … the shops that were closed.
"I say … who is it? Why are you looking for me? "Aoyama shouted out as his eyes swiveled around and scanned the surroundings.
No one replied, and beside his ears, there was only the sound of the wind, the sound of leaves rubbing against each other, and his own breathing. Aoyama revealed out a bitter smile. What a brilliant illusion, normal methods are unable to break it at all.
"Sit in the frosty sky, Hyorinmaru."
Unsheathing his sword, white cold air spread out, and the scenery in the surroundings suddenly distorted. Aoyama felt that the rainbow light in front of his eyes shattered, and then, he discovered that he was in a narrow alley. At the end of the alley stood a pitch black figure, and the pair of scarlet red Sharingan looked so demonic in the darkness.
"Hey, hey, hey, I really didn't expect that you would actually come back to the village. Sasuke is currently beside Orochi Maru, Itachi." Aoyama held onto the Hyorinmaru in his hand tightly. Although his mouth was very relaxed, his nerves were already stretched taut.
"Today, I specially came to look for you, Lord Aoyama." Itachi slowly walked over with an indifferent expression, and from his face, one couldn't see any intentions.
"Oh!"
Towards Aoyama's neither cold nor warm response, Itachi didn't mind and continued, "This time, I came to look for you because I want to ask you something, I don't intend to fight with you."
"So what? I don't have the obligation to answer an enemy who used illusion to attack me. "Aoyama's wrist turned, and the long sword in his hand pointed towards Itachi.
"Cough, cough …" Itachi coughed twice, and a trace of fatigue appeared on his face. However, he was still calm and composed. "The illusion was only used to lure you over, if I intended to attack you, I wouldn't use such a crude illusion."
