Ibiki merely nodded upon hearing the kid's response before continuing, "Ye Lan, what is your identity, and why were you found on the outskirts of the village?"

"I'm a war orphan. Because I had nowhere to go, I chose to come to Konohagakure. I originally planned to find the Hokage directly and have them find me a place to settle in Konohagakure. I didn't expect to be captured as an intruder by your Anbu right away."

Ye Lan's tone clearly carried a hint of resentment. Ibiki's expression remained unchanged. He wasn't so easily swayed by a young kid's words, especially one of unknown identity.

So, he continued, "Then what's with the clothes you're wearing?"

Ye Lan broke out in a sweat. He looked down at his modern attire before calmly saying to Ibiki, "They're just clothes I made out of personal preference."

Ye Lan continued, "Why are you asking about my clothes? It doesn't seem related to your interrogation, does it?"

Ibiki was shot back with a retort, and his expression turned somewhat unpleasant.

Ibiki's eyes narrowed slightly as he quietly observed Ye Lan. Ye Lan didn't flinch and met his gaze without yielding.

Suddenly, Ye Lan felt the surroundings change drastically.

Originally, Ye Lan was sitting on a chair in the Interrogation Room. Now, he was trapped in a metal cage, his hands and feet bound tightly by chains.

Ibiki remained in his original position, coldly watching Ye Lan.

Ye Lan was only surprised for a moment before regaining his composure. He secretly praised Ibiki as truly worthy of being the Interrogation Unit Captain; his caution was indeed remarkable.

"I don't care who you are. If you do anything detrimental to Konohagakure, I will eliminate you directly."

As Ibiki spoke, the chains wrapped around Ye Lan began to tighten.

Ye Lan remained unfazed, thinking he had plenty of time. Since Ibiki was cautious and didn't trust him, he might as well let him interrogate to his heart's content.

"But Ibiki's interrogation method is quite violent, using this kind of approach right from the start..."

The reason Ye Lan was unaffected by Ibiki's harsh interrogation was that he had COPYed Ibiki's physical strength.

He knew that Ibiki's Ninjutsu had a characteristic: during Ibiki's interrogation state, this Ninjutsu was two-sided. On the surface, it appeared Ye Lan was being constricted by the chains, but in reality, not only Ye Lan, but Ibiki himself would also suffer the same damage.

Furthermore, Ibiki's physical resilience was unlike that of ordinary people, which was why his interrogation abilities were so potent.

The chains tightened further, yet Ye Lan remained silent. Instead, Ibiki's face gradually turned pale.

At a certain moment, the chains wrapped around Ye Lan vanished instantly.

Ye Lan slowly opened his eyes and found that Ibiki's forehead was covered in large beads of cold sweat. He knew Ibiki had reached his limit.

Even more astonished was Ibiki.

He couldn't fathom that someone else's physical strength could surpass his!

But how could he give up the interrogation just like that?

Ibiki suddenly formed hand seals!

Ye Lan's eyebrows rose. He naturally knew what Ibiki intended to do.

However, he still didn't resist, as Ibiki's technique wouldn't harm him at all.
