Naruto the Genius

Chapter 66 Results of the Interrogation

Naruto immediately retreated with the captives. Hinata observed that the enemy reinforcements were very close. The members of Naruto's team returned to the base and sat down to rest. At this time, everyone was thankful for their luck this time, and they were able to defeat the enemy at the last moment. Naruto said: "No, this time it was thanks to the sweetheart's white eyes, otherwise we would have been passive no matter what." Everyone agreed with Naruto's words, and their eyes of gratitude focused on Hinata.

Hinata said embarrassedly: "It's nothing, it's all thanks to everyone, I just saw the enemy's ninjutsu."

Naruto said: "This time we are all thanks to the Byakugan. Although the battle is over, we still have very important work to do. Now we have to try our best to get information from these Kirigakure. However, interrogation is obviously not in line with my style. I can only trouble you."

Yamato nodded and said, "Leave these matters to us." Then Yamato took Xuanguang Liuying and the other two to interrogate the captured Kirigakure, while the rest of them rested on the spot and waited for information.

Naruto leaned over to Hinata's ear and said, "Hinata, come with me to the inner room. I have something to ask you."

Although his expression could not be seen under the mask, Naruto knew Hinata must have blushed. Naruto took the lead and walked into the room. Hinata followed behind him, keeping her head down and not daring to look at Naruto. Naruto closed the door and whispered, "Hinata, do you have any thoughts on this operation? I want to hear your true feelings."

Hinata whispered, "The enemy's strength is stronger than the ones we encountered in the previous mission, and they are completely on a different level. I feel there is no way to fight them. As for the rest, I haven't felt any difference for the time being."

Naruto looked at Hinata very seriously and said, "Although you have Konoha's very unique bloodline limit, and the Byakugan has extraordinary insight, if it is only used as an auxiliary ninjutsu, it can be of great help to your teammates. However, the Hyuga family's Byakugan is not only known for its auxiliary perception, but also based on the Hyuga family's unique ninjutsu, which has a very strong ability to attack in close combat, and a unique absolute defense, Kaiten."

Hinata lowered her head and began to ponder after hearing what Naruto said, knowing that her own strength was far from enough. Naruto sighed, "At your age, this level of strength is only normal. But it also depends on your own efforts. I suggest that you at least learn the move of Kaiten first. If you can ensure your own safety in this mission, we may have defeated the enemy long ago."

After hearing what Naruto said, Hinata's head almost touched the ground, and she secretly made up her mind to constantly improve her strength. Seeing Hinata like this, Naruto couldn't bear it anymore, so he touched Hinata's hair and said, "I may have said something serious, don't blame yourself too much, just work hard in the future." At this time, Yamato's voice was heard outside, "Captain, the preliminary interrogation is over."

Naruto said to Hinata, "Let's go out and see if Yamato has any information." The two returned to the hall one after the other. Yamato waited for Naruto and Hinata to sit down in the hall, looked around and said, "It's a pity that we didn't get any valuable information." Naruto noticed that Xuanguang and Liuying were also dejected, obviously they were hit.

Naruto said: "Even if there is no valuable information, just give us a brief description of the general situation. This will be of some use to our next actions. Don't be discouraged. Interrogation is not something we are good at."

Yamato said: "Not only did we not get any valuable intelligence, but we also got some bad news. We learned from Kirigakure that they always put the mission first and don't care about their companions at all. The ninjas trained in the so-called Blood Mist Village have lost the affection of a large part of the people. So it is impossible to exchange our Konoha people in this way."

Naruto pondered, "This is indeed bad news for us. Although we expected it, we are still somewhat disappointed. So, do you know the strength of the other party? How many people are there? Which powerful ninjas are there?"

Facing Naruto's question, Yamato sighed: "From the crazy tone of Kirigakure, we can basically conclude that there are a large number of people in this operation. They are just the vanguard, and the other party has made sufficient preparations for this operation. As for the specific strength of the other ninja, we basically have no idea. However, before finding out our specific strength, the other party should not take action easily."

It's no wonder that Yamato and the others are a little depressed in this situation. Naruto also feels that things are getting more and more difficult to handle. However, as the captain, he still has to come up with ideas at this time. Naruto began to arrange everyone: "I estimate that the possibility of Kirigakure carrying out a rescue is very low. These people are very likely to be abandoned by them, so let a few Chunins in the base escort them to Konoha and hand them over to Konoha's interrogation department. Starting tomorrow, change the way of action at night and take action during the day. Try to expand the scope of the search and look for suspicious places. Once you find anything, report back immediately and don't put yourself in danger. Does anyone have any other suggestions?"

Everyone nodded. The enemy likes to act at night, so they must be hiding during the day. Relatively speaking, they are definitely not as vigilant during the day as at night. However, this is also dangerous for the team members. If they are discovered, they may be killed. Naruto then instructed: "Yamato, try to use the wooden clone to search. If you find something wrong, immediately release the clone technique. Others should also try to use this method. Even if you find something suspicious, don't make it public. Pretend to be nothing. The enemy will not take action during the day in order to better hide."

At dawn the next day, everyone took action according to the method discussed before. Naruto stayed in the base to guide Hinata's training. Naruto also separated a certain number of shadow clones to go out for search. This method was also a last resort, and he could only try his best. It was indeed not easy for Hinata to master a move like Kaiten. It seemed that it was due to Hinata's limited talent in this area. Ironically, although Neji was a branch family, he had very good talent. Naruto also lamented that the Hyuga family adopted this method. Although it preserved the inheritance of the bloodline limit to a large extent, it also restricted the development of the Byakugan. I believe that there have been many true geniuses in the Hyuga branch family, and there is only one person in each generation of the main family. It is difficult to ensure that this person is the most talented.

But for now, he can only try his best to help Hinata practice. Hinata has a certain ability to protect herself and can also reduce Naruto's burden.
