Aoba did not know that Kushina and Mikoto were discussing.
After returning to the dormitory.
He washed up and went to sleep.
The next day.
Aoba came to Ramen Ichiraku Noodle House early in the morning. The shop was already full of people, all here for breakfast.
"Morning, Aoba!"
After seeing Aoba, Teuchi greeted him with a smile. There were thick dark circles around his eyes. It was obvious that he had not rested well. Today, he wanted to announce Ramen Ichiraku's limited membership system.
Tomorrow was the time for new students to enter the Ninja School.
He wanted to use this opportunity to promote the first batch of Ramen Ichiraku members.
In the face of such a change, he had insomnia last night for the first time in his life.
"It's quite busy!"
Aoba glanced around and found that there was no place to sit.
"Just for a while." Teuchi was full of smiles.
"I'm going for a walk. I'll come back later." Aoba nodded. There were too many people in the shop now. It gave him a stuffy feeling. He did not like a closed place with too many people. He would feel flustered and uncomfortable.
"No problem." Teuchi gave Aoba a thumbs-up. He was already very happy that Aoba could come over to help.
After that.
Aoba walked out of Ramen Ichiraku.
Standing at the shop entrance, he looked at the people around him. Life in this world was not as fast as the modern-day. People were talking and laughing, neither fast nor slow. It seemed that they were quite leisurely.
It had to be said.
Konohagakure provided people with a peaceful and pure land in this chaotic ninja world.
This was the first thought that the First Hokage, Senju Hashirama, had set up Konohagakure.
Only...
Everything will change with time!
When the Second Hokage inherited the position of Konohagakure Hokage, there were some faint signs of conspiracy. And up to the Third Hokage era, it has completely changed into another appearance.
Just as Aoba sighed in his heart.
Two ninjas wearing the uniform of Konoha Military Police Force walked towards him. From their appearance, they were on routine patrol.
The two of them patrolled towards Ramen Ichiraku Noodle House.
One of them all of a sudden fixed his eyes on Aoba.
"Eh?"
This person had a strange expression on his face. He immediately grabbed the youth beside him and pointed at Aoba, "Fugaku, do you see the man over there?"
The person who spoke.
It was the Uchiha Sekai that Aoba had seen before.
The person standing next to Sekai was the genius of Uchiha's younger generation, Uchiha Fugaku.
"What's wrong with that man?"
Fugaku looked at Aoba doubtfully. He instinctively thought that there was something wrong with Aoba. He looked at him several times, but he did not find anything.
"Do you still remember when I told you before that there was a person who was your fan and regarded you as an idol?" Sekai winked and said.
"Don't tell me you were talking about him?" Fugaku's faces were full of black lines. At that time, it was because of this matter that he was ridiculed by Konoha Military Police Force's people for a long time.
"It's him!" The expression on Sekai's face became much more interesting.
"That... I'll go patrol the other side first." The black lines on Fugaku's face became even thicker. Now that he knew that the young man in front of him was a fan he could not afford to meet, he immediately did not dare to go forward. Otherwise, if he screamed in the middle of the street, there would be no place for him to hide.
"Don't, it wasn't easy to meet your fans. He has been looking for you for a long time, but he hasn't met you. Wouldn't it be a pity if he missed you?" Sekai looked like he was watching a show.
"It's not a pity at all!" Fugaku waved his hands and quickly ran to the other intersection as if he was running for his life.
"Sigh... You'll hurt the hearts of small fans if you do this!"
Sekai looked in the direction that Fugaku left in and sighed helplessly. After that, he turned his gaze to Aoba.
There was nothing much to do now.
Morning patrols were just so dull and boring.
Why don't we have some fun!
So Sekai walked towards Aoba.
As the distance between the two of them got closer and closer. Aoba also noticed the existence of Sekai.
It was just...
There was no change in his expression. He acted as if he did not know Sekai.
"Hey, do you still remember me?"
Sekai took the initiative to greet Aoba. This was not a common move for the arrogant Konoha Military Police Force.
The impression that Aoba had left on him was too deep.
In his life, Sekai had only been mistaken for Fugaku once.
"You are..."
There was confusion on Aoba's face. He blinked and looked at Sekai's face. His expression was completely unfamiliar.
"Eh..."
Sekai suddenly felt embarrassed and wanted to use his toes to dig a place to hide on the ground.
This person...
He did not remember him at all!
Was he so forgetful?
"We met before. You mistook me for Fugaku. Have you forgotten?" Sekai reminded him.
"Brother Fugaku?"
When Aoba heard the name 'Fugaku', he immediately acted like a love-struck fool and showed off his acting skills in front of Sekai again.
"Do you know where Brother Fugaku is? I really want to see Brother Fugaku! I admire Brother Fugaku very much! I want him..."
Before Aoba could finish his last sentence, Sekai interrupted him, whose face was full of black lines.
"I know where Fugaku is. I'll take you to him. Come with me!"
Sekai could no longer listen to this kind of brainless remarks. If he listened to a few more words, he would go crazy.
However...
A naughty thought suddenly emerged in his heart.
Why not bring this man to see Fugaku! He really wanted to see what Fugaku would look like after seeing this man.
"?"
The expression on Aoba's face instantly froze. This was f*cking fishing law enforcement, right?
"Hurry up and catch up!"
When Sekai saw Aoba standing on the spot in a daze, he thought that Aoba had become stiff due to excessive excitement. Immediately, he became even more determined to see a joke.
"I will take you to see Brother Fugaku right now!"
After saying that, he squeezed out a smile on his face.
However, this smile contained a rich meaning that only he knew.
"..."
Aoba was speechless. He had just walked out of Ramen Ichiraku and encountered such a thing.
What Fugaku?
What was the point of seeing him?
You don't really think that I think that Fugaku was very handsome, do you?
No way, no way!
Was this a man's mentality, okay?
Every cell in Aoba's body was filled with rejection. However, Sekai was Konoha Military Police Force's member. If he acted too abnormally, it would be easy for the latter to suspect him. Then, things would be even more troublesome.
He felt helpless.
Aoba had no choice but to bite the bullet and squeeze out a love-struck smile. He then said excitedly,
"Okay~ I want to see Brother Fugaku!"
All of a sudden, Sekai trembled all over. His exposed hair skin stood up, and goosebumps rose all over his body.
He was even more looking forward to what kind of visual impact this man would have when he saw Fugaku!
On the other side.
Under the disguise of the fanatical fans, Aoba began to think quickly.
Right now, he was going to approach the core figure of the Uchiha Clan.
He was very clear.
Fugaku was the future clan leader of the Uchiha Clan.
He had to be careful!
If he wasn't careful, he might be involved in the matter of Uchiha.
After reading the memories of Tatsuma, Aoba understood Danzo's methods even more deeply. He even made Danzo and the Uchiha clan into the same equation.
The meaning of this equation was...
Once he had any connection with the Uchiha clan, it would be the same as being swept into a vortex related to Danzo.
