Naruto: I'm really not an evil scientist!

Then Nohara Rin handed over a blank notebook and said, "Lord Hiruko instructed that you can write whatever you want to write in this book."

“I understand,” Yugito replied.

Afterwards, Nohara Rin left the lounge alone, leaving only the three of them.

Hiruko didn't seem worried that they would do anything outrageous.

Although there was no one watching over them in the room, they had all eaten something and could not condense any chakra within their bodies.

The room was naturally equipped with surveillance equipment, which monitored their every move at all times.

At the same time, the chains binding the three of them were also removed.

Yugito was able to hold on until now partly because Hiruko did not subject her to harsh interrogation, as he was always worried that Yugito was really dead.

On the other hand, she was also afraid that he would have a mental breakdown and become crazy, which would be a big problem. She still liked this proud guy, Hiruko.

The interrogation experiences of Mabui and Samoyed stand in stark contrast to those of Yugito.

Hemp clothes were the first to break down under the harsh interrogation and chose to compromise.

Later, Hiruku asked Mabu-i to persuade Yuki-jin.

This filled Mabui with guilt; the cruel methods Hiruko used made her shudder at the mere thought of them.

She couldn't help but ask herself: Is this the tragic fate that awaits those who fall into enemy hands?

The three of them were originally vibrant young women with bright futures, but in the blink of an eye, they became prisoners.

This huge gap caused them immense pain and made it extremely difficult for them to accept.

Yugito sat at the table, his gaze fixed on the paper and pen in front of him, remaining motionless for a long time, as if lost in thought.

Samui slowly walked to the sofa and sat down, staring calmly at the ceiling, but his eyes revealed a hint of emptiness.

The woman in hemp clothing was at a loss and curled up alone on the opposite sofa, not uttering a sound.

The lounge was so quiet you could hear each other breathing.

About an hour later, the door creaked open and Hiruko walked in.

His arrival instantly made the already tense atmosphere in the room even more strained.

However, Hiruko ignored Mabui and Samui and went straight to Yugito's side, picking up what she had written and examining it carefully.

The first thing that caught his eye was about being able to communicate with tailed beasts.

As Hiruko looked at this message, thoughts related to the Nine-Tails involuntarily surfaced in her mind.

He knew very well that it was almost impossible to get the Nine-Tails to obey.

In his opinion, the only one who could influence the tailed beasts was probably Naruto Uzumaki, after all, that kid had a unique protagonist aura and the ability to talk his way out of anything.

However, Hiruko did not possess such persuasive skills, and relying on this to convince the Tailed Beasts was simply a pipe dream.

Rin Nohara actually has a certain possibility of becoming the perfect Jinchūriki.

It's important to understand that a perfect Jinchūriki is of immense significance to the village where they reside.

Although the two two-tailed beasts controlled by Kito may be weaker than some other tailed beasts in terms of their own strength.

However, once one becomes a perfect Jinchūriki, the strength they can unleash will not be much less than that of the Eight-Tails or Nine-Tails Jinchūriki.

Hiruko shifted his gaze from the documents in his hand and scanned the three people in front of him.

His gaze swept quickly over the linen clothes and the Samoyed, finally settling on Samui for a second longer.

The three people in front of me are all young and their bodies have not yet fully developed.

The woman in linen clothes doesn't have the intellectual and elegant temperament of the original character; instead, she gives off a soft, timid feeling.

Yu Muren, on the other hand, seemed somewhat eccentric.

Samui, on the other hand, is truly outstanding; she has an extremely hot figure.

Hiruko's original room was almost completely filled with these girls.

Hiruko looked at the three of them and said slowly, "I have always been fair in my rewards and punishments. As long as you perform well, you are not without a chance to survive."

"As for returning to Kumogakure... think about it carefully. If you tell Konoha directly how to control your own tailed beast, it would be tantamount to betraying the village."

"Now that things have come to this, do you think anyone will still accept you when you return to Kumogakure?"

"Just follow me closely!"

Upon hearing this, all three remained silent.

They knew in their hearts that their current situation was very awkward, and that doing what Hiruko said would be a betrayal of the village.

Hiruko then took the three men away and settled them in his residence.

This time, he did not continue to imprison them, but simply put special dog necklaces designed by Hiruko on their wrists. Apart from that, there was nothing else that directly restricted their movements.

Moreover, the meals that Hiruko arranged for the three of them were all top-notch options that he could provide.

In Hiruko's view, people of value should naturally enjoy the best treatment.

These three had never experienced such a luxurious and affluent life in Kumogakure before.

When they first tasted fried chicken with iced cola, their eyes lit up with surprise.

Of course, all of this happened in Hiruko's absence.

After all, they hadn't had a proper, full meal in far too long.

Unable to contain herself any longer, Mabui reached out and grabbed a piece of fried chicken, taking a bite.

Seeing this, Yukito couldn't help but frown and say, "Aren't you afraid that this has been poisoned?"

“If Hiruko really wanted to take our lives, it would be easy. Why go through all this trouble? I guess that lecherous man from Konoha has taken a liking to us!” Samui said, looking tired but earnest.

"I was so hungry that my stomach was practically sticking to my back. After being captured and brought here, how could those ANBU ninjas treat us people from an enemy country kindly?"

Even when dealing with prisoners of war, including girls, they adhered to the principle of "as long as they don't starve to death," simply stuffing a soldier's ration pill into their mouths.

The smell of that stuff was truly unbearable.

As for Yukito, he was tortured by Hiruko for several days and was so hungry that his stomach was practically sticking to his back.

In the end, the three girls were starving and no longer cared about their image or restraint. They ate the delicious fried chicken, fries, and potato chips in big bites, and gulped down ice-cold cola.

While eating, Mabuya suddenly burst into tears, tears welling up in her eyes.

She thought of her close friends in the village, and her father who was still suffering in prison.

She knew in her heart that she would probably never have the chance to return to Kumogakure in her lifetime.

"What are you crying for!" Yukito roared angrily.

The sound of hemp clothing crying irritated her, as she was already filled with anger because of her initial compromise.

At that time, Mabuya pleaded with her, saying that if she did not agree, Hiruko would torture her father to death.

In Yugito's opinion, Mabui's father was just an ordinary man. Did he not even have the awareness to die?

She even felt that even if he was a Konoha ninja, Hiruko might not give him a chance to live.

But in the end, Mabui's pleading look softened her heart.

Yugito harbored extreme hatred for the ninjas of Konoha, especially that Hiruko; she wished she could tear him to pieces and cut him into a thousand pieces.

But she knew that now was not the time to act impulsively, and she planned to remain patient and wait for an opportunity to seek revenge.

Yugito looked around the huge, empty room in front of her. Besides the few of them, there was also Yokura from Sunagakure.

As for Yecang, thanks to the excellent food and lodging provided by Hiruko every day, and the meticulous care from his apprentice Maki, she, as the master, was also eating and drinking well here.

Moreover, having fellow villagers to talk to has greatly improved her mental state.

After filling their stomachs, Yugito started chatting with Yekura, and the topic naturally turned to Konoha and Kumogakure.

the other side.

In Minato Namikaze's office.

"How's Jiraiya doing lately?" Hiruko asked casually.

"Jiraiya-sensei has received the news and returned to Konoha," Minato Namikaze said.

"So, what's the situation in Amegakure now?" Hiruko then asked.

Minato Namikaze skillfully picked up the notebook and pulled out some photos from a folder.

Many of the photos are aerial views of Amegakure. Although the lighting is not very clear, the general outline of Amegakure is still clearly visible.

These photos were clearly taken by Jiraiya who went there.

Although Amegakure is often rainy, after Nagato officially took over, it doesn't always rain, and there are occasional moments of sunshine.

Konoha's intelligence capabilities have significantly improved thanks to some technologies leaked by Hiruko.

Nowadays, Konoha's intelligence personnel are already adept at using high-resolution digital cameras combined with miniature drones.

It should be noted that these technologies were not deliberately taught by Hiruko, but rather Hiruko hoped that Konoha could use its own strength to spark technological innovation and propel the village towards modernization.

Therefore, these devices and technologies are all the result of Konoha Village's independent research and development, and were not created by Hiruko.

The knowledge revealed by Hiruko was like a key, opening up new avenues of thought for many researchers and helping them break through existing technological bottlenecks, thus enabling them to independently develop these devices.

For these researchers, these technologies were just missing a little inspiration, and the knowledge provided by Hiruko filled that gap, allowing them to quickly develop them successfully.

It's worth noting that when Minato's team took their graduation photo in the previous life, they were using an old-fashioned camera from Konoha. Developing the film required a long wait for the photos to appear.

But times have changed, and technology is advancing rapidly.

In the original storyline, more than a decade later in Shippuden, the experiments conducted by the scientists under Hiruko's command already showed the beginnings of electronic devices.

It wasn't until the Boruto era, after Kakashi Hatake became Hokage, that Konoha Village truly began to see the widespread adoption of convenient electronic technologies such as laptops.

Now, thanks to Beiliuhu, these electronic technologies have become widespread in the village.

Minato Namikaze heard that the researchers in the village regarded Hiruko as their standard.

Even some of his seemingly foolish remarks from his childhood, as well as his abandoned plans, were thoroughly studied.

I recently heard that Hiruko proposed launching a rocket to place a satellite belonging to Konoha in space in order to explore the unknown universe.

Some chuunibyou teenagers in the Uchiha clan, with Minato Namikaze's tacit approval, secretly read the educational materials that Hiruko had given to Itachi Uchiha.
