Eaton stared at Aoba in shock. Although Aoba did not tell him all the content, just the words he said now were enough to make him feel incomparably shocked!
Low profile!
That's right!
It was low profile!
Before this, he had faintly felt that Aoba's strength would be very strong, but he never thought that Aoba's strength would be so strong.
This was completely beyond his expectations!
He had mastered medical ninjutsu and knew the sealing technique comparable to the Uzumaki clan. Just these two points, there was no need to add anything else, and it was enough to become a very powerful ninja in this world.
More importantly...
Eaton believed in Aoba's words. He believed that Aoba was indeed low-key and there were still many abilities that he did not reveal. However, he did not dare to think about it. He felt that Aoba's current strength was already very exaggerated.
Of course.
Aoba was indeed holding back.
He didn't say everything.
Otherwise...
If he were to say that he had mastered the Dust Release, Magnet Release, Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu, and the Lightning Release Body Technique...
Eaton would find out.
The ability that Aoba had grasped by himself was almost equivalent to the current five Kage of the Ninja World!
After all, Aoba already possessed the ability of four Kage, and the Third Hokage's ability was almost negligible.
"Brother Eaton, other than my matters, I won't restrict you in any way. As for the position of Konohagakure Intelligence Division Captain, I actually don't really want to do it. If there are other options, help me fight for them." Aoba faintly said to Eaton. Now that he was equivalent to half-laying his cards on the table with Eaton, he didn't have so many worries when speaking.
"I understand." Eaton nodded. At this time, he gradually understood how terrifying this subordinate of his had been.
"Oh right..."
Aoba seemed to have suddenly thought of something. He immediately raised his eyes and looked at Eaton. The expression on his face changed from serious to smiling. He looked very relaxed.
"I have something to tell you."
"I almost forgot."
"Here."
"This is for you!"
As Aoba spoke, he immediately took out a notebook from his pocket. The notebook looked new, but the pages in the notebook had already become thick. It could be seen that it had been flipped open many times in this period of time.
"This is..." Eaton's heart jumped fiercely. He vaguely realized something, and his whole person became excited.
"This is the latest work. As usual, I'll show it to you first. After you finish reading it, you can arrange to publish it. The signature is still Fugaku." Aoba said indifferently. After he finished speaking, he handed the notebook in his hand directly to Eaton.
"Hu..."
After Eaton heard Aoba's words, he couldn't help but take a deep breath. Because of this matter, he was so excited that he couldn't speak.
His hands trembled.
He immediately opened the book.
His gaze focused on a line of text on the title page.
[Golden Carp Won't Stay in a Pond Forever]
Eaton did not quite understand the meaning of these words combined together, but even if he was not very clear, he still felt that it was extremely domineering when he read it, making him feel very shocked.
After that.
He quickly opened the notebook.
The familiar beginning.
It was the draft he saw earlier that go beyond Teacher Bai at the very beginning.
But...
Eaton suddenly raised his head and focused his gaze on Aoba, his eyes flashing with doubt.
"Aoba, I still remember the scene at that time. Did you really give up the Chunin Exam because of inspiration?"
At this time.
Eaton once again thought about this question.
He felt that there were many things in the past that has been easily resolved, but now it seemed that it was not the case anymore.
After all...
With Aoba's strength.
It could be said that passing Chunin Exams would not waste any time and experience.
It would not disturb any of his thoughts at all.
It was precisely because of this.
Eaton felt that what Aoba said back then was just an excuse and it was not really like this.
"Hahahahaha..."
After hearing Eaton's words, Aoba immediately raised his head and laughed. He had almost forgotten about this matter. Now that it was mentioned, he suddenly felt that it was quite interesting.
"It's fine to not mention this matter. You just need to know that I have no intention of passing the Chunin Exams. I just want to go to experience it. There is no need to care too much about it."
Aoba waved his hand. He did not want to talk too much about what happened at that time. After all, he did want to be friends with the people there at that time, but in the end, all he got was alienation and suspicion.
Thinking about it now.
He still felt a little uncomfortable.
"Brother Eaton, if there is nothing else, you can go back to read the novel."
Aoba directly issued the order to evict the guest.
There was no courtesy at all.
If it was in the past, he would still pay attention when talking to Eaton. After all, at that time, he had not revealed his identity and needed to consider Eaton's thoughts.
Now it was different.
At that time, things were different.
It was not that Aoba had changed.
It was that Aoba's position in Eaton's heart had changed.
In the ninja world, no matter where the strong man goes, he will still be looked at highly by others.
"Yes."
Eaton nodded. He didn't think too much about it. Regarding the question just now, he was just asking on a whim. He didn't really want to know the answer.
The thing that occupied his heart now...
It was the notebook in his hand.
The last time he read the beginning, he was already unable to stop himself. It was just that the story was not finished at that time, and he could not read it even if he wanted to.
Now it was possible!
Then he had to look at it!
Immediately.
Eaton took the notebook and headed back to his office. He was not sad that Aoba had put Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal on him, on the contrary, he was very happy that Aoba had told him about it.
Now he already knew.
Aoba was not as bad as the rumors said, but a low-key genius, so low-key that it made people feel very terrified!
After Eaton left.
Only Aoba was left in the room.
Aoba looked in the direction where Eaton left, and the stone hanging in his heart slowly lowered.
During this period of time.
He had always been considering it.
How should he deal with Eaton's matter?
In his heart, he was very clear that no matter what kind of purpose Eaton had, the other party had truly done many things for him.
