Naruto: We Uchiha only want to make money.

Chapter 56 exposes Kabuto Yakushi's acting skills, revealing Kabuto's doubts!

"Shingetsu, don't be angry, I was just trying to be helpful!" Fugaku quickly defended himself when he saw Shingetsu's face turn red with anger.

"The people from the Hidden Cloud Village only care about ninjutsu and power. How could they possibly bring too much money to Konoha?"

"Besides, even if I were to take action, I would only do so after they leave the village, or even cross the border, and return to Kumogakure!"

"Wouldn't it be asking for trouble to make a move now?" Shen Yue blurted out his true thoughts.

"You really want to make a move?" Fugaku was speechless upon hearing Kamizuki's words.

Shen Yue was indeed an outlier within the Uchiha clan.

He tried his best to persuade her, and finally managed to somewhat dissuade Shenyue from her intention to ambush the Cloud Hidden Envoy.

Shen Yue finally accepted the mission.

This time, he will lead the Konoha Police Force to be responsible for the perimeter of the Cloud Village delegation's residence during their stay in Konoha, their escort when they go out, and their security within the designated activity areas in Konoha.

"The village doesn't trust us. The people of Kumogakure are always arrogant. If anything goes wrong, we'll be the ones blamed." Fugaku sighed helplessly as he watched Shingetsu excitedly accept the mission.

Shen Yue, however, was extremely excited.

He first formed a guard squad.

The core members naturally included Qing Shui and Tie Shu, two old subordinates. Several Jonin and Chunin with solid skills and meticulous minds were also selected from the clan, including Inaho and a few others who had performed well in training, forming a capable ten-person team.

Over the next few days, everything was ready.

The Cloud Hidden Envoys will be arriving soon.

The moon was before their arrival.

I've decided to deal with something else.

He once again went to the deepest, most heavily guarded solitary cell in the Konoha Police Force.

Pushing open the door, in the dim light, Kabuto Yakushi sat leaning against the corner of the wall, his glasses reflecting a faint light, his face a mixture of fatigue and numbness.

Every day, without fail, he relentlessly and silently endures the onslaught of the Golden Binding Illusion Technique.

It has already created deep cracks in his resilient defenses.

Upon hearing the sound of the cell door opening, Kabuto Yakushi's body trembled almost imperceptibly.

When he saw the handsome Uchiha boy standing at the door, his face, which always wore a gentle mask, instantly broke down.

He scrambled to the cell door, gripping the bars tightly, tears streaming down his face behind his glasses, and pleaded, "Lord Kamui! Lord Uchiha Kamui! I was wrong! I know I was wrong! I'm willing to talk! I'll tell you everything! I know Lord Danzo's secrets, Lord Orochimaru's experiments, Lord Sasori's movements! Please, please stop using genjutsu on me! I'll tell you everything!"

He behaved like a prisoner whose will had been completely destroyed by torture, tears streaming down his face, seemingly only seeking a quick release.

"Kamizuki, your tricks really worked!" Seeing Kabuto's reaction, Uchiha Hyōe, who was on guard duty, also gave Kamui a thumbs up in his heart.

He's figured it out over time.

This pharmacist is quite extraordinary.

Ordinary methods of torture simply cannot get him to confess.

Seeing that Shingetsu's methods were effective, he immediately wanted to release Yakushi Kabuto for interrogation.

"Wait!" Shen Yue stopped him, and then cast another illusion.

Golden Binding Illusion Technique!

The eye power, more precise and refined than before, pierced into Kabuto Yakushi's mental world like an invisible sharp cone!

The familiar, soul-wrenching pain and feeling of constriction swept over my entire body once again!

"Ugh!" Kabuto Yakushi let out a short cry of pain, his body suddenly leaning backward and crashing heavily against the wall. He then curled up on the ground, convulsing in agony, his forehead instantly covered in cold sweat.

The mental shock brought about by the illusion washed over his consciousness like a tidal wave.

After a long while, the effects of the illusion slowly faded. Yakushi Kabuto collapsed to the ground, panting heavily, his eyes unfocused, filled with confusion and a deep sense of defeat.

Kabuto struggled to lift his head and looked at Shingetsu, who was still standing outside the cell door: "Why? I've already agreed to cooperate and am willing to tell you all the information, so why do you still want to attack me?" His tone was filled with anger.

Shen Yue sneered, interrupting him, her voice cold: "An ordinary person, after these days of hospitality, would probably have already suffered a mental breakdown and become completely open and honest. But you, Yakushi Kabuto!"

He leaned forward slightly, his Sharingan fixed on Kabuto Yakushi's eyes.

"You're a multi-talented spy, operating between Danzo, Orochimaru, and Sasori—the most dangerous figures in the ninja world. Your mental fortitude far surpasses that of ordinary people. This level of torture might cause you pain, but it will never truly break you. Your demeanor just now was merely an attempt to lower my guard, as if you thought I was unaware?"

Shen Yue's tone was laced with undisguised sarcasm: "If you want to surrender, you'd better show some real sincerity. Don't try to play these empty tricks with me."

"Kamizuki, is he really faking it?" Uchiha Hyōe was also very surprised when he heard Kamiya's analysis.

Kabuto Yakushi's acting was so convincing that even he was fooled.

"He's definitely faking it!" The three tomoe in Shen Yue's eyes slowly rotated, as if he had completely seen through Yakushi Kabuto.

"He's so young, yet he's already this amazing?" Uchiha Hyōe looked at Yakushi Kabuto with some surprise.

Shen Yue's words hit the nail on the head, completely exposing his inner scheming.

Kabuto's body suddenly stiffened.

The pain and pleading on his face receded quickly like a tide, replaced by an extreme calmness, and even the excitement of meeting a worthy opponent.

He slowly got up from the ground, his movements no longer clumsy, but rather composed.

He dusted himself off, adjusted his crooked round-framed glasses, and his eyes behind the lenses regained their usual gentleness and depth.

"As expected of Uchiha Shingetsu, he truly lives up to his reputation. No wonder he could make Danzo suffer such a great loss and cause such a huge upheaval in Konoha."

He paused, looking directly at Shingetsu, his tone filled with anticipation: "Now, I'm genuinely curious and looking forward to it. It might be very interesting to follow someone like you. Much more interesting than following Danzo, Orochimaru, or Sasori."

"This guy is really empty!" Shingetsu thought to himself as he observed Yakushi Kabuto's rapidly changing attitude.

He knew that after days of mental pressure and that direct and honest revelation, Kabuto Yakushi's psychological defenses had truly begun to crumble.

This brilliant yet utterly confused spy began to see him as a more interesting destination.

"Follow me?" Shen Yue smiled noncommittally, neither accepting nor refusing immediately.

What he needs is Kabuto Yakushi's abilities and information, not empty vows.

"Since you're so sincere, then prove your worth first. Tell me, what's been going on with Orochimaru and Sasori lately?"

"As expected, they want their information!" Kabuto Yakushi was not surprised that Shingetsu asked him so directly about these two sensitive figures, but a greater doubt arose in his heart.

He adjusted his glasses, not answering immediately, but instead, his spy instincts kicked in again, and he began to ask, "Lord Shingetsu, you seem to know everything about my past, my relationship with Lord Orochimaru and Lord Sasori? This makes me very curious. Logically speaking, this should be top secret."

However, what answered him was an even stronger pupil power that suddenly erupted in Shenyue's eyes!

Another merciless Golden Binding Illusion Technique!
