"No... clues..."

After Anbe Ninja left, Namikaze Minato, who groaned twice, couldn't help groaning again, but this time, amidst the groaning, his brows were tightly frowned, and the pen he picked up was slow. Slowly put it down.

His face was already full of worry.

At this moment, the newly appointed Fourth Hokage, whose owner was second only to the first Hokage, was full of worries.

However, he was already worried to the point of being a little uneasy.

Yes, at this moment, Namikaze Minato was a little restless.

What made him uneasy was the incident about his "attack on a ninja in the village" when Chiba returned. Unfavorable and misleading, a very bad nature of framing occurred. Although, because of this time, there is no resistance for Chiba to be appointed as Hokage's assistant, but as Hokage, he can't just think about achieving his own goals. that layer.

He still has to pay attention to the deeper things.

Even, the action of attracting Uchiha this time, this deeper thing, is also one of the reasons.

And this deeper thing is definitely the biggest threat to him at this stage.

In the information given to Hokage, no, not only the information of Hokage, but also the information given to the high-level officials of the village can be added to this slanderous guidance. The person who secretly framed Chiba can be said to have controlled the village's intelligence system , or in other words, can affect the information transmission of the village.

As a ninja village, the importance of the intelligence system is self-evident. It is even above the military system. It is basically one of the most important systems in the village. If you master the intelligence system, you can basically control half of the village. .

If the intelligence system is operated properly, this person can even control Hokage's actions. After all, no matter what kind of decision or government order, Hokage must be promulgated based on intelligence. manipulated.

How can this not make Namikaze Minato uneasy?

Moreover, what makes him even more worried and even a little appalled now is that there is no trace of the information about framing Chiba this time, who added it, and how it was added. In this way, whether there was a framed case in the first place, or it was added later, it cannot be found out.

In this regard, the intelligence network directly under his Hokage seemed to be blindfolded by a black cloth, and his eyes were smeared, and he couldn't see anything.

This gave Namikaze Minato a sense of powerlessness, and this feeling of powerlessness weighed on Namikaze Minato's heart, sinking like a boulder.

Of course, Namakaze Minato is not so scared, but he just can't figure out how the intelligence system can be infiltrated. In every village, whether it is a big ninja village or a small ninja village, the intelligence system is always the most difficult to be invaded. The stronger the village, the less likely it is to be invaded.

Since the second generation, Konoha has attached great importance to the intelligence system, spared no effort in the construction of the intelligence system, and invested in an unlimited budget, and with the ability of the second generation, it can be said that the construction of the intelligence system is extremely rigorous. It can almost be described as airtight.

At the same time, the third generation after the second generation followed the second generation's policy of strengthening the construction of the intelligence system, and from the perspective of a bystander and a ninjutsu master, improved the intelligence system, which can be said to be impenetrable.

It is impossible to invade other villages. There may be one or two talented spies who can sneak into the intelligence system, but according to the layout of the village's intelligence system, even if they enter the intelligence system, they cannot enter the core system.

Moreover, it can cover up its whereabouts so well that Hokage's intelligence forces directly under it can't find out why.

This is simply incredible.

Since the opening of the village, I am afraid that this is the first time.

It seems that this matter, perhaps... I overestimated our intelligence system.

Now, it can be concluded that our intelligence system has been invaded, but it is unlikely that it was done by other villages, but by people in the village.

And this person is not only in a high position, but also well versed in intelligence.

Moreover, all the intelligence departments in the village have planted their own eyeliners, and those who can cover up this intelligence misleading incident are probably the deputy department, or even directly at the level of the intelligence department's troop commander.

Moreover, it is also possible that a considerable part of the fresh blood that I have replaced into the intelligence department is already someone else's.

This thing should be done.

It cannot be delayed any longer.

And thinking of this, Namikaze Minato slowly became serious, and a faint sharp brilliance flashed in his eyes.

"Come on!"

Then, he called out.

"Here, Fourth Hokage-sama!"

After this sound, there was another sound behind him.

"Now, Hokage is directly under Anbu, how many captains are there? How many people are there, especially those directly under the intelligence department."

Hearing the response, Namikaze Minato didn't talk nonsense and asked directly.

"Currently, there are 1,743 people directly under Hokage Anbu, 300 captains, 971 people in the intelligence department, and 150 captains."

replied behind.

"Now, reliable captains have been confirmed, especially those directly under the intelligence department."

Hearing this, Namikaze Minato's expression didn't change, he just asked again.

"After this period of observation, it was confirmed that the background is clean. There are 293 reliable captains, 149 reliable captains of the intelligence department, and the remaining seven are still under investigation, and no one has been found. Doubtful points, all preliminary determinations are reliable.”

In this regard, there was another report from behind.

"Very good. More than 50 captains will be selected from the reliable captains of the intelligence department, and at least 100 captains will be drawn from the directly subordinate troops to take over the village's intelligence department. I will check all the intelligence department and find out Suspicious people can be directly handed over to the torture team for interrogation, and the traitor's situation can be obtained at any cost. Now, the intelligence system has entered a state of first-level investigation, and our intelligence department has been invaded."

Hearing this, Namikaze Minato nodded silently, and then announced in an extremely serious voice that the intelligence department had entered a state of investigation.

Moreover, it is still the highest level of first-level investigation status.

"Yes Yes!"

Hearing this sound, he was obviously taken aback for a moment behind him, but he agreed very simply.

However, beads of sweat were already seeping from the forehead of this Anbu.

The invasion of the intelligence department is such a big deal. As Anbu, if he doesn't know, then he really should quit the Anbu.

As expected... the Fourth Hokage-sama...

Really, really vigorous and resolute!

But in his heart, it was the surprise of Namikaze Minato.
