Yamagata Ken felt everyone's gaze on him, and his face suddenly became serious.
As a medical ninja for this autopsy, he had to be careful.
The degree of exaggeration in this matter far exceeded his understanding.
It left him in a state of shock.
"According to my inspection of this person's body, his heart quickly lost its life force the moment it was pierced through. It is not like an ordinary weapon, but more like his lifeline was cut off by a chakra..."
Yamagata Ken began to explain.
"This kind of situation often appears only in the transplant operation. If the chakra is not connected to the lifeline, this kind of immediate death will occur."
"In other words..."
"This person died the moment his heart lifeline was cut off."
"The whole process will not last more than five seconds."
"According to the time of this person's death and the condition of his brain being destroyed."
"A very bold guess popped up in my head..."
Yamagata Ken took a deep breath, and then his eyes became very serious. He said something that shocked everyone present.
"I suspect that Kumogakure is self-directing this matter!"
As soon as this was said.
Akaru was stunned.
Fugaku was also stunned.
Kenji was also stunned.
Everyone in the Uchiha clan was dumbfounded.
They couldn't believe their ears.
Strange things happened every year, and there were especially many of them this year!
"Is this... possible?"
The corners of Akaru's mouth twitched violently, and an ominous premonition arose in his heart.
What was wrong with these people?
According to what Danzo said a few days ago, the person who made the missing person case was Tetsu from the Nara clan.
But...
According to his secret investigation during this period of time.
Tetsu was indeed a remnant of the old era.
But not everything was done by Tetsu.
The corpses that they investigated, later on, we're all people who were linked to Tetsu in countless ways.
He had once guessed that these people died to help Tetsu frame Danzo.
However, he was not very sure.
But, did this self-mutilation act really exist?
However...
The people missing case and the river floating corpse case had just ended not long ago.
And now there was another Kumogakure self-directing case?
This mother * cker...
Were they all trying to frame him in the form of suicide?
Did they have to be even more outrageous?
Akaru continuously complained in his heart. He didn't know what to say about this kind of behavior.
"Actually, I don't think it's possible either. In the beginning, I also said that this was just a very bold conjecture..." Yamagata Ken shook his head with a bitter smile.
"Why would there be such a guess?" Fugaku interrupted and added, "You must have a basis to make such a conjecture. Why don't you tell us the basis? Perhaps we can make other guesses."
"Fugaku is right. Please tell us the basis." Akaru nodded at Fugaku. His eyes flashed with appreciation. He approved of Fugaku's reaction ability.
When such a scene fell into Kenji's eyes, the latter's breathing became heavier, and his eyes flashed with jealousy.
"Based on..."
The smile on Yamagata Ken's face became even more helpless as he slowly began to explain.
"If I tell you, you might also find it very strange."
"This person definitely did not last more than five seconds from being attacked to his death."
"Moreover, you must attack from a very close distance."
"In addition, this person is a Jonin whose strength is not weaker than yours."
"What method do you think can be used to kill a Jonin who has mastered ninjutsu in close combat, quickly and accurately within 5 seconds?"
After Yamagata Ken stated his judgment, the people present fell silent.
A thoughtful expression appeared on everyone's face.
Can't do it.
No one can do it.
If a Jonin could be killed in such a short time and be killed instantly.
Then what kind of strength does the murderer have?
"Seeing your expressions, I know that your thoughts are the same as mine."
Yamagata Ken said with a smile.
"Even if we include the situation of sneak attacks, if we want to kill a Jonin who has mastered close combat ninjutsu in five seconds, even Third Hokage-sama can't do it."
"What I mean is not that the Third Hokage-sama can't beat him, but he won't be able to kill him so easily."
"There are no traces of poisoning or weakening on his body."
"Since Konohagakure doesn't have such a person, is it possible that..."
"What about the self-directed and self-acted by Kumogakure?"
Yamagata Ken once again stated his conjecture, but he did not mention anything about the medical ninja.
Because...
For an old medical ninja like him.
This was only a strange thought flashing through his mind.
There was no such thing as the feasibility to think about it seriously.
How could someone use Chakura no Mesu(Chakra Scalpel) and Shōsen Jutsu(Mystical Palm Technique) like that?
Impossible!
Absolutely impossible!
It was precisely because of Yamagata Ken's extremely subjective perception that he did not tell Akaru and the others anything that might be related to a medical ninja.
"But..."
Yamagata Ken continued his analysis.
"If not for Kumogakure's self-directed and self-acted act, what kind of powerful existence would be able to kill a Jonin in such a short time instantly?"
"This is obviously unreasonable!"
"Konohagakure does not have such a powerful existence!"
"Akaru-sama, you must be very clear about this!"
Yamagata Ken stared at Akaru. He did not need to speak too clearly.
Akaru was the Konoha Military Police Force's Captain.
He knew Konohagakure population information like the back of his hand.
Someone who could do such a thing did not exist!
There was no such thing!
"Huh..."
Following Yamagata Ken's explanation, all of Uchiha's clansmen took a deep breath.
"Self-directed and self-acted..."
Akaru frowned. After Yamagata Ken's explanation, he suddenly felt that there was still such a possibility.
"But..."
"Isn't this price a bit too high?"
"Just directly sacrifice a Jonin."
"What is their goal?"
Akaru muttered softly. He knew very well that the greater the price, the greater the goal.
This time.
It was probably going to be a war.
"This is also what I can't figure out. If it were just a self-directed act to frame Konohagakure, then the price of sacrificing a Jonin was too great. Unfortunately, this person's brain is already destroyed, so we can't read his memories at all. Otherwise, we can make a reasonable deduction based on what happened before his death." Yamagata Ken said in a deep voice.
"The more it is like this, the more strange it is." Akaru nodded and said, "If there is no conspiracy, there is no need to destroy this person's brain. There are doubts everywhere here. I will report this matter to Third Hokage-sama. This is definitely not a simple matter."
"Indeed, we should report this to Third Hokage-sama. If my guess is correct, then there will be something big waiting for Konohagakure in the future!" Yamagata Ken nodded.
"I will go now!"
Akaru immediately smelled a dangerous aura, and a feeling of impending doom emerged in his heart.
"Thank you, Yamagata Ken-sama!"
Akaru bowed deeply to Yamagata Ken. Then he looked at Fugaku and Kenji beside him and nodded to the two of them.
The two of them immediately understood what Akaru meant.
Immediately after that.
Konoha Military Police Force's people left the hospital one after another.
"Akaru-sama, I suddenly thought of a question. I want to ask Yamagata Ken-sama again to understand the situation more clearly." Just as Kenji walked out, his eyes turned, and he said to Akaru.
"You go; it is not a bad thing to understand more about the situation." Akaru nodded and said to Fugaku, "Fugaku, come with me to see Third Hokage-sama."
"Yes!" Fugaku immediately nodded.
After that.
Akaru brought Fugaku towards the Hokage Building direction.
Kenji silently looked at the backs of these two people as they left, his hands tightly clenched into fists.
"Damn it!"
"Fugaku, this guy."
"Showing off everywhere!"
Kenji's eyes became cold. In his opinion, Fugaku had completely robbed him of all his brilliance, causing him to gradually lose his competitiveness toward the Konoha Military Police Force captain position.
"I must find a chance to kill Fugaku!"
Kenji had a very strong sense of anger in his heart.
After that.
He turned around and walked into Konoha hospital.
He found Yamagata Ken, who was ready to leave home.
"Yamagata Ken-sama!"
Kenji caught up with him with a flattering smile on his face. It didn't look like there was anything good.
"Is there anything else?" Yamagata Ken asked in confusion.
"Yes, yes. I want to ask if this is a plot by Kumogakure, how long will it take to kill this Jonin?" Kenji asked.
"Less than a minute." Yamagata Ken thought for a moment and said, "Strictly speaking, it took less than five seconds to pierce through his heart and crush his brain. Of course, this can't be completely calculated by the time. So I think that if it were arranged in advance, it would be almost a minute."
"Understood."
Kenji nodded and continued to ask, "Yamagata Ken-sama, there is another question. Can you confirm what kind of strength or identity the ninja who killed this person has? What I mean is..."
Kenji slightly narrowed his eyes, which contained a breathtaking cold light.
"Is it possible that it is Konohagakure ninja?"
When this was said.
Yamagata Ken was stunned for a moment.
"I didn't think this way. Wait a moment, let me think..."
Yamagata Ken held his chin with his right hand, recalling the traces on the corpse. Then, he raised his eyes and stared at Kenji.
"Young man, your observation is very good. I thought that the best of the younger generation of the Uchiha Clan was only Uchiha Fugaku. You did a good job!"
Yamagata Ken immediately encouraged Kenji.
This encouragement.
Instantly, the lines on Kenji's face became much softer.
It was a positive effect.
"How about this? Let's talk about a precondition first. The premise is that this matter is an act. Otherwise, there is no way to judge strength. If it really happens, then this person's strength will be incomparably terrifying!" Yamagata Ken said.
"That's natural." Kenji nodded.
"Based on this premise, it means that this ninja did not resist and was willing to die. Then the strength range of those who can kill him is very large..."
Yamagata Ken stared at Kenji with a serious look in his eyes. It was obvious that he had started to discuss business.
"It can be Jonin."
"It can be Chunin."
"It can be Genin."
"Even if it is an ordinary person, it is not impossible."
"Anyone can kill the pre-planned unresisted Jonin."
"Do you agree with this?"
Yamagata Ken said very seriously. He was just a medical ninja. Normally, he should not participate in the case of the Konoha Military Police Force.
But...
This matter was really too strange.
It caused him to be unable to restrain his curiosity.
He could not help but participate in the analysis of this matter.
"I understand."
The corners of Kenji's mouth curled up slightly, "Then can I understand that this matter is likely to work from both inside and outside? The spy inside Konohagakure released this person and then killed him to frame Konohagakure?"
"It's not impossible." Yamagata Ken said after thinking for a while.
"In other words, the person who killed him might also be Konohagakure's person!" Kenji discovered one of the key points of this case.
"Well... that is indeed the case. When you are searching, pay more attention. The other party may not be Kumogakure's ninja." Yamagata Ken said seriously. He had already sensed the aura of conspiracy from this incident.
"Thank you, Yamagata Ken-sama!" Kenji immediately bowed deeply to Yamagata Ken.
"You are too polite. Konoha Military Police Force should have more people like you who pay attention to the details. I hope you can solve this case as soon as possible and keep Konohagakure away from the possible crisis." Yamagata Ken raised his hand and patted Kenji on the shoulder. He looked at Kenji with eyes full of appreciation.
"I will!"
After saying this, Kenji turned and left. A new plan was already brewing in his heart.
His purpose was not to investigate the truth of the case.
The truth was not important!
Even if he found the truth, there was no way he could reverse the impression he had in Akaru's heart.
After this incident.
He already understood.
Now, he was far behind Fugaku when it came to competing for Konoha Military Police Force's future captain.
Since he could not catch up with him even if he were given an extra point.
Then he would think of a way to get Fugaku's point deducted!
"I remember that Fugaku's friend left halfway and went to buy Dango."
"I can try to make a move on him and frame him as a spy. I can design him as the director of this self-directed self-acting incident."
"In this way."
"Even if Fugaku did not participate in this matter."
"Based on the fact that Fugaku did not realize that the friends around him were trying to frame Konohagakure."
"Akaru-sama must re-evaluate whether Fugaku is suitable to become Konoha Military Police Force Captain."
"As for investigating this matter..."
Kenji shook his head. He felt that Kumogakure carefully planned this matter, and there was no way there would be any slip-ups.
The murderer would never be found!
He might as well make use of this incident.
He would ruthlessly suppress Fugaku!
"That boy is the key to this entire incident!"
Kenji's pitch-black eyes instantly shone with a scarlet red light, directly turning into a blood-red color. There were three black magatamas on them.
It was the Three Tomoe Sharingan.
"If I remember correctly, the body of that boy is not very good, so his resistance to genjutsu will not be too strong!"
The corners of Kenji's mouth slightly curled up into a cold arc, and his mind began to plan how to use this sudden event to pour dirty water on Fugaku.
...
In Anbu's dormitory.
Aoba slowly opened his eyes. He had already flipped through most of Otai's recent memories.
"At this time, Kumogakure Anbu should know that Otai was killed, right?"
Aoba sat up from the iron bed. Through Otai's memories, he could already confirm that Kumogakure Anbus hid in the forest to the west of Konohagakure.
He just doesn't know if the hidden location has been changed now.
"If I'm not wrong."
"The matter of me killing Otai should cause a lot of trouble for Konohagakure and Kumogakure."
"Both sides will be in the stage of guessing."
"The problem now is..."
"Will Kumogakure give up?"
Aoba silently calculated in his heart. He deliberately left Otai's body behind. He was betting that Kumogakure would give up and not capture Kushina but threaten Konohagakure.
However...
He couldn't say for sure.
After all, Kumogakure Anbu and several other important figures had already sneaked into Konohagakure.
No one knew what kind of thing they could do.
"Let me try to use the secret code to send information to Danzo."
Aoba received a secret code to communicate with Danzo in Tatsuma's memory.
However, Tatsuma was already dead.
Danzo would not easily believe the contents of the message.
It doesn't matter.
As long as Danzo could see it.
This person's character was very strange. He would rather kill wrongly than let it go. As long as it made him slightly suspicious, it would be fine.
Most importantly...
Aoba had no intention of sending true information to Danzo, so it didn't matter whether he believed it or not.
In his hand, he has always had the secret code used by Tatsuma to pass information to Danzo.
He had been waiting for the right time to use it.
Aoba was very clear.
This secret code was only needed to be used once.
He could no longer use it in the future.
After all.
Danzo will definitely keep an eye on this matter and pay attention to it in the future.
The risk of using it again was too great.
Thinking of this.
Aoba immediately took out the scroll Yuta had hidden beforehand in Konohagakure Intelligence Division.
"Tetsu's body is at the root. I think Danzo already knows Tetsu's memory."
"Then I will give him a piece of information as Yuta."
"By the way, give Danzo a reminder."
"Tell him that Yuta is still alive."
