Chapter 437
Yamanaka Clanâs place.
Yamanaka Inoichi once again came to the room where Ao was imprisoned.
Since Lain brought back this ninja from Kirigakure a few days ago, Yamanaka Inoichi had come in a dozen times in the past few days.
The Yamanaka clansmen felt a bit strange, but Yamanaka Inoichi did not say anything, and they were not qualified to ask anything.
A few moments later, Yamanaka Inoichi came out of the house with a slightly tired expression. Yamanaka Inoichiâs expression was clearly seen by Yamanaka Ryo, who happened to return to Konoha.
When Yamanaka Inoichi left, Yamanaka Ryo teleported to the room. Aoâs Chakra was sealed, and so did his eyes. So, he couldnât notice Yamanaka Ryoâs arrival.
Yamanaka Ryo was too lazy to talk nonsense with Ao and started to invade Aoâs brain.
However, Yamanaka Ryo didnât expect that Ao had too much memory in his brain. If he wanted to find what Ao wished to know from his memory, he was afraid he would have to keep searching every day for months to find it.
The pleasant Spiritual space was fragile, and no one could persist for months in a row.
Yamanaka Ryo sighed helplessly. His consciousness left Aoâs brain, and he teleported to Yamanaka Inoichiâs house.
â¦â¦â¦..
Knockâ
âCome in!â
âItâs Ryo! What can I do for you?â Yamanaka Inoichi asked, bracing himself.
âBrother Inoichi, donât you know why I came? Some things canât be hidden.â
Yamanaka Inoichi asked with a bitter smile, âWhat do you want to know?â
âBrother Inoichi, what is sister-in-lawâs real identity? What did she bring to Konoha? What agreement did you and Third Hokage have that year? Please tell me.â
âDonât deny it. If you can make the Kirigakure remember it after many years, it must be crucial. Also, if sister-in-law can touch and take this thing, her identity canât be as simple as a Chunin. This is not a trivial matter, and brother Inoichi, you are hiding it. If this continues, it will not be good for our Yamanaka Clan!â
Yamanaka Inoichi was silent. He lowered his head and thought for a long time before finally sighed helplessly and said, âIâll start with the identity of your sister-in-law!â
âAs you guessed, your sister-in-law is indeed not an ordinary Chunin. She is the disciple of Sandaime Mizukage and the person in charge of the Seven Ninja Swords summon scrolls.â
âThis summon scroll was born with Seven Ninja Swords. It was the only way to summon the Seven Ninja Swords. Back then, she left Kirigakure with this scroll.â
Yamanaka Ryo frowned remembered that Hozuki Mangetsu once used summon scroll to roll out ninja sword in the original Naruto story.
Upon thinking of this, Yamanaka Ryo asked, âBrother Inoichi, where is this scroll?â
Yamanaka Inoichi sighed and continued, âAfter she returned to the village with me, she was taken away by Anbu. She then told the Third Hokage that she had agreed to marry me.â
âI never knew how she persuaded the Third Hokage until Lain sent Ao a few days ago. She looked particularly panic after seeing Ao Kirigakureâs headband. No matter how I comforted her, she was still anxious. I couldnât bear to look at her like this, so I asked her why.â
âAt this time, she told me what had happened. She used the ninja sword summon scroll and carved a special seal on the tongue. At the expense of the Third Hokage, she could marry me.â
âThe seal on her tongue is what Danzo engraved to restrain her from saying things about ninja sword summon scroll.â
âAfter so many years, neither of us knows the specific whereabouts of the scroll. The Third Hokage only knows the estimate of its location. â
After listening to Yamanaka Inoichiâs words, Yamanaka Ryo bowed his head and digested for a long time, and then asked, âBrother Inoichi, what are you looking for in Ao?â
âI just want to figure out how much Ao knows about her this time. Is this mission as simple as recovering ninja sword summon scroll?â
âAnd the result?â
Yamanaka Inoichi shook his head, âAo is complicated to deal with. He has a hard mouth and too many memories in his head. I mostly gain nothing after so many days.â
âAt most? Is that mean you still got some valuable information?â
âWell! In Aoâs memory, I found that Anbu of Kirigakure has seen the summon scroll of ninja sword back then. The most important thing is that this person also summoned five of the ninja sword.â
Yamanaka Ryo frowned, âSummoned five of the ninja sword.â? Whatâs wrong with this?â
âShe told me that this scroll could only be used by Hozuki Clan or someone who has mastered special Secret Jutsu. She only knows part of Secret Jutsu and can only summon two of the ninja sword. If this person can summon five ninja sword means that this person has mastered the Secret Jutsu.â
âKonoha didnât have Hozuki Clanâs Ninja. So, all Secret Jutsu of summoning of ninja sword was only known by her. Only people like her who guard the summon scroll could only know a part of it. â
Yamanaka Ryo then realized, âBrother Inoichi, do you mean that the user of this scroll is not Konoha Ninja. The scroll is no longer in Konoha, right?â
Yamanaka Inoichi nodded and said, âI think so, because the Secret Jutsu that she gave to the village can summon two ninja swords, and the village people canât learn the rest of the Secret Jutsu.â
Yamanaka Ryo sighed, then said, âUgh! This is the problem. It seems that I have to go to the Third Hokage.â
âIâll go along too! After all, Iâm her husband and the head of the Yamanaka Clan. Itâs more appropriate for me to step in.â
âGood. Then we will go together. Brother Inoichi, put your hand on my shoulder and close your eyes.â
Yamanaka Inoichi did as he was told. After a moment of spinning, the two brothers arrived at the home of the Third Hokage.
â¦â¦â¦â¦.
The Third Hokage, who was teaching Sarutobi Konohamaru to practice, was startled by the sudden appearance of the two brothers, âRyo, Inoichi! What brings you here?â
âSandaime, we are looking for you for something. You seeâ¦â
Third Hokage frowned, then ask someone to take Konohamaru out.
âWhat is it? Now, you can say it!â
âIt is like this. The third Hokage, we want to know where the ninja sword summon scroll that my sister-in-law gave to the village back then went?â Yamanaka Ryo got to the point without beating around the bush.
âSummon scroll of ninja sword? Is that why those people from Kirigakure turned their faces from the village?â
Yamanaka Ryo nodded, âWell, it is indeed so. This is why we want to know where did you put the summon scroll of ninja sword, Third Hokage?â
The Third Hokage thought about it and said, âI remember that at first, I put the scroll under Hokageâs Office where the scroll of seals was stored. Later Danzo said he wanted to study it, so I lent it to him.â
âHowever, after that, Danzo didnât return it to me. When I asked him about it, he always used various reasons to put offâ¦â
âIt seems that at that time, the summon scroll of ninja sword was already not in the village. â
