Sarutobi Atsushi stared at the arm and blood on the ground, his eyelids twitching.

"The mistake you made may not actually be a capital offense, so what's the use of being stubborn?"

Xingxia Xiu's voice was gentle: "Just as my subordinates said, what if you're innocent?"

How am I supposed to know if you're innocent if you don't tell me?

"If you don't tell me, I'll just kill you!"

"With the special permission of the Third Hokage, Root has the privilege of acting first and reporting later."

As he spoke, Hoshino Hide's knife was already between Tsuchiya Naoya's legs.

Naoya Tsuchiya shuddered, then closed his eyes in pain: "I...I'll talk."

"That's a good girl!"

Hoshino patted Naoya Tsuchiya on the shoulder, then let him go.

At the very moment he released the power, Tsuchiya Naoya suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a senbon needle, which flew straight at Hoshino Hideaki's face.

Sarutobi Atsushi and his two companions were shocked, but it was too late to come to their rescue.

But Hoshino reacted very quickly, raising his arm to block the senbon.

"court death!"

With a backhand slash, Hoshino pierced Tsuchiya Naoya's shoulder, pinning him to the wall, and coldly said, "Flying Insect, eat him with your insects."

"Start with his ears, let him hear the sound of himself being eaten away, bit by bit!"

Beneath the mask, Aburame's eye twitched involuntarily, then she nodded: "Yes, Captain!"

It was indeed a bit cruel, but Naoya Tsuchiya did seem to have some issues, so there was no need to hold back.

Aburame Hideichi stepped forward and injected the parasitic insect into Tsuchiya Naoya's body, then slowly gnawed at Tsuchiya Naoya's ears.

The physical pain was self-evident, but what was even more terrifying was the sound of chewing.

Naoya Tsuchiya stared wide-eyed in pain and fear, his intact right hand reaching for his ear, but was pinned to the wall by a kunai thrown by Shu Hoshita.

At this moment, the scholar under the stars slowly pulled the sage sticks off his arm.

The needle in the mouth is not poisonous, and the wound heals as soon as it is removed.

"This is your responsibility."

"If he says 'ape,' you're responsible for writing it down."

"If he doesn't talk, then let the insects eat him up. After they eat his ears, they'll eat his nose, then his eyes, leaving only his mouth."

She tossed aside a thousand books, and Xingxia Xiu turned and left.

He was always kind and couldn't bear to see such cruel things happen before his eyes, so of course he had to avoid it.

After a while.

Inuzuka Ryo approached Hoshino Hide and handed him a small notebook: "Captain, he confessed!"

Xingxia Xiu took the notebook, flipped through it, and smiled softly: "What a poignant love story!"

Clichéd and melodramatic!

Naoya Tsuchiya was once saved by a beautiful female ninja from the Sky Ninja. They fell in love with each other and then Naoya Tsuchiya, who was in charge of guarding the Konoha Ninjutsu Database, began to steal some sealing technique secrets and give them to the beautiful female ninja from the Sky Ninja.

"Mari Hayami, a nice name."

After offering a compliment, Hoshino Hide turned and went back inside. Looking at Tsuchiya Naoya, whose nose was practically nonexistent, he said, "At this point, do you think we can still keep Hayami Mari?"

"All you can do now is atone for your sins!"

"Tell me, where will your next transaction take place?"

"Also, are there any copies of those secret techniques data that were sent out in the past?"

Xingxia Xiu is well aware that once a person's bottom line is crossed, all past principles will vanish.

Naoya Tsuchiya's last defenses crumbled after Hoshino Hide's words. He lowered his head in despair and revealed everything he had been hiding.

There is a copy; it's hidden under the bedroom floor.

There will be another transaction in two days, and the transaction location will be near a lake near Konoha Village.

The scenery there is very nice, so many people often go there to visit.

Naoya Tsuchiya would visit that place every time he took a vacation to meet with Mari Hayami, not only to betray the village's secrets, but also to preach and impart knowledge.

Inuzuka Ryo quickly found the secret technique copy. Hoshino Hide glanced at it briefly, then handed it back to Inuzuka Ryo: "Make four copies."

Ryo Inuzuka was completely stunned.

Sarutobi Atsushi and Aburame Hiichi also looked at Hoshishita Shuu.

Xingxia Xiu looked at them and asked, "Can you memorize it?"

Inuzuka Ryo swallowed hard. "Um... Captain, it doesn't seem right for us to take the village's secret techniques without permission, does it?"

Hoshino patted Inuzuka Ryo on the shoulder and laughed, "If you guys don't take it, how am I supposed to take it?"

"If you don't take it, and I don't take it, how will Lord Danzo take it?"

Inuzuka Ryo really wanted to ask Danzo-sama if he needed to obtain these materials in this way?

But thinking about what Xingxia Xiu said, it seemed to make some sense, so he nodded.

The latest novel is first published here!

This child is teachable!

Xingxia Xiu was quite satisfied, then said to You Nufei, "Fei Chong, since he's confessed, let's give him a quick death!"

"etc!"

Sarutobi Atsushi quickly gave a soft shout, then said to Hoshishita Hideaki, "Captain, now that he's confessed, shouldn't we send him to the Anbu for disposal and then report to the Third Hokage?"

Hoshishita Hide suddenly looked sharply at Sarutobi Atsushi: "It seems I need to emphasize this again."

"Lord Danzo's will is my will, and my will is Lord Danzo's will. My current command is Lord Danzo's command!"

"You can have opinions, but keep them to yourself. You are not allowed to argue back. This is a military order."

"Also, since this is our first time, I can explain."

"Regardless of whether there is solid evidence, taking action against one's fellow villagers is not something to be celebrated."

"Are you sure you want to send him to the Anbu, letting more people know that we, without solid evidence, are acting on the Third Hokage's orders to attack our own comrade and torture him for a confession?"

"Are you sure you want the Third Hokage to bear the burden of this darkness for us?"

Sweating profusely from the questioning, Sarutobi Atsushi quickly bowed his head and said, "Captain, I was wrong!"

Xingxia Xiu said calmly, "If we are protecting the village in the darkness, we must have the courage and determination to bear that darkness!"

"Make it clean!"

After saying that, Xingxia Xiu turned and left.

He was too kind; he couldn't bear to see life being taken.

Less than five minutes after Hoshinoshige waited outside, Sarutobi Atsushi and the other two came out.

Yu Nvfei reported: "The body has been cleaned up."

Inuzuka Ryo then added, "The other traces have also been dealt with."

Xingxia Xiu nodded in satisfaction: "Very good, back to base!"

……

Back at the Root base, after making a copy of the sealing technique data, Hoshino Hide took the original document from Tsuchiya Naoya to Danzo's office to report.

Hoshino Hideyuki recounted the entire process of the operation, the interrogation, the specific intelligence, the secret techniques, and the matter of making four copies of the documents.

Danzo casually flipped through the esoteric techniques manual, then looked up and asked, "Are you interested in sealing techniques?"

Hoshita Hide respectfully replied, "It was because of you, sir, that I was able to obtain the power of the First Hokage. As long as I can help Lord Danzo, I am willing to do my utmost."

I want to learn sealing techniques, but it's all for you, Lord Danzo.

Danzo remained noncommittal, but also didn't pursue the matter of the Hoshinobi Squad's possession of secret techniques materials, simply saying, "Bring back Hayami Mari alive!"

Xingxia Xiu immediately accepted the order: "Understood!"
