Novel Full Chapter 782
Chapter 782: Chapter 708: Inquiry Chapter 782: Chapter 708: Inquiry “Please come with us.”
A few members of the Anbu blocked the way of the Bright Family group, who had just finalized a deal with Danzo Shimura, and their faces also showed some annoyance.
“Is this how you treat guests?”
At this moment, Danzo Shimura, who was responsible for handling the day-to-day affairs of the Root Division under Tobirama’s command and who had recently set his sights on that so-called virus vaccine, also walked out slowly, leaning on a cane, and asked the Anbu members,
“Whose order is this?
They are our guests.”
Hearing Danzo Shimura speak up for them, Henry Bright also breathed a little easier.
This man, who had said he was the Hokage’s advisor, was highly respected.
Even from Danzo, they had learned that the guy who found that bigwig was the young Fourth Hokage.
Although they didn’t know why that guy was so lucky to be able to cling to such a powerful figure, Danzo said he was a senior to the Fourth Hokage, with immense influence.
He could resolve any issue and, being a disciple of the Second Hokage, had a good chance of becoming the next Hokage.
With such a powerful figure by their side, they naturally felt quite confident.
“It must be him, he must be seeking revenge against us, and wants to use you to eliminate us — you must not be manipulated!”
Henry Bright also hastily spoke up.

In his eyes, the lone Pioneer, Jack, who had offended his combination, would probably never dare come out alone again.
Putting oneself in another’s shoes, if he were in that position, he would surely play dirty tricks too, trying to incite these ninjas to target himself, using the home ground advantage to cut off future troubles!
Damn it!
But fortunately, he had also sensed the risk and had quickly used the vaccine to get on board with Danzo’s scheme.
With this old generation of the Hokage’s advisor by their side, and the mutual interests of vaccines and scrolls, he was certainly much more solid than the opposition.
At that moment, Danzo Shimura continued,
“They also hold a not insignificant status among the Pioneers.
I have confirmed through another party that there might be someone in their clan close to the level of the First Hokage.
We cannot act rashly without evidence.”
Henry Bright immediately nodded in understanding and agreed,
“Yes, our Bright Family’s strength may not compare with Konoha’s, but we also know quite a few friends.”
Then, the Anbu member, who also seemed to be wary of Danzo Shimura’s presence, spoke,
“We have received relevant intelligence that they are not from a nearby family, nor would they wage war against us for these few individuals.
Moreover, it is precisely because of their profound background that they are more likely to do so.”
Seeing they were giving him no face at all, Danzo Shimura was also inwardly surprised and said gravely,
“What exactly happened?”
“The Aburame Clan was attacked, nearly annihilated, and the assailants were two Pioneers, who had also met with them prior to the action.”
The Anbu spoke respectfully, immediately causing Danzo Shimura’s expression to change.
“What?
Why did no one tell me!”
Previously, Danzo had taken Henry Bright to the Root Division’s safe house for a secret discussion.
Aside from vaccines and scrolls, from the reactions of the Pioneers, he knew this Bright Family must hold some authority within the Pioneers; thus, he wanted to win them over, which is why he helped so much this time.
Also, because of the Root’s secret safe house, and the battle site being on another end, he had not been directly informed.
But even so, the members of Root’s intelligence should have reported to him!
Danzo Shimura did not like situations that were beyond his control.
What the hell are those idiots doing!
“Lord Danzo’s men were likely redirected by Lord Tobirama himself to assist, they might not have had the chance to inform you.”
With that statement, the previously enraged Danzo was immediately deflated.
If his teacher was involved, then he truly had no recourse.
Although Danzo Shimura was problematic in character and ruthless in methods, he still had genuine love for Konoha.
The Aburame Clan posed no threat to Konoha, but rather was an important asset, it was impossible to treat them like the Uchiha Clan.
This even made him look at Henry Bright with an equally cold gaze.
As a disciple of Tobirama, his thinking was similar to that of his teacher.
Sometimes he would rather kill mistakenly than let one escape!
Since the people who attacked the Aburame Clan were the Pioneers who were let in, throwing them all into the Interrogation Department was definitely the right move!
And when Henry Bright heard such a big accusation, his expression went a bit blank.
Having already inquired around Konoha for a long while, they naturally knew what the Aburame Clan represented!
Nearly exterminated by the Pioneers?
And ones that had dealings with them?
Who?!
The Ye Family?
No, it must be those two injured ones!
“There’s a problem, they definitely have a problem, this has nothing to do with us!”
“Whether it’s related or not, come and ask and you’ll know.”
The voice of the ANBU was also somewhat chilling.
Tobirama would, of course, not dare to do anything to Tao Yu, but for the other Pioneers, there was no need for pleasantries.
Come into the interrogation chamber and have some tea first.
Whether you can remember or not, you’ll naturally find out…
“You can’t do this, we are envoys representing the Pioneers!
Our Bright Family has a Catastrophe Level powerhouse sitting in reserve!
Don’t be fooled by that guy, he’s deceiving you!”
The ANBU ninjas were already aware of the meaning ‘Catastrophe Level’ represented when it came to intelligence probing.
But even so, they were completely unmoved.
What?
Trust that your family has a Catastrophe Level, or directly trust that adult who has shown terrifying strength, there was simply no need to choose.
And you still have the nerve to say you represent the Pioneers?!
Utterly ridiculous…
…

Aside from a few members of the Bright Family who were pitifully dragged off to the Interrogation Department and sat on little stools.
The Ye Family members actually did not escape either.
However, knowing that the Ye Family came in with Tao Yu, they were directly spared the methods of the Interrogation Department, only undergoing some routine inquiries.
Such as the situation of those two people, the time when family intelligence encountered them, and so forth.
“…so you’re saying when you saw them again they were already injured?”
“Yes, after all, we too encountered the Cockroach People together, they had comrades who died, so we didn’t want to provoke them further and there was no further contact.”
Ye Rong honestly laid out what she knew.
After being kicked out as a supplier, they had seen from a distance that sky-reaching flame tornado and the hundred-meter-tall blue Titans!
They knew something big had happened in the village.
Even if they didn’t know the specifics, they knew they couldn’t get involved at all costs.
Just a scratch in this level of conflict would be the end of them, they had to tell the truth!
Even now, they all seemed a bit nervous, fearing that it might not be so easy to get by.
In the same Interrogation Department, they had heard the screams of pain from the Bright Family members.
And from time to time saw ANBU ninjas dragging bloodied and scar-ridden members of the Bright Family past them.
Just looking at that miserable state was enough to make one’s scalp tingle.
Although the questions they were asked were polite for now, there was a real concern that the next moment might bring harsh methods.
“All right, since Madara is also aware of the matter, let’s leave it at that.
We hope you won’t return home for the time being and don’t leave the village yet, as there may still be questions for you.”
Suddenly hearing this, Ye Rong was first startled, then felt a great relief in her heart.
Everyone had a sense of having a narrow escape from death.
Previously, when they saw the bloodied members of the Bright Family dragged past them, they were all terrified.
Now it turned out to be unexpectedly easy to talk to.
It seems it must have been Henry Bright and the others who were implicated in something and specially targeted…
