I am just an ordinary Konoha Anbu ninja, why can I get involved in the matter of two brats competing for the future leader of the root!
However…
Hatake Kakashi had to get involved.
Who keeps the two candidates vying for the future leadership of the Roots under his wing?
"I still think that Lord Tsuchikage should be handed over to Lord Hokage."
Hatake Kakashi's brain was spinning wildly, and he carefully reminded Akihara Kagura: "If you have this merit, Hokage-sama will agree to all your requests... You want to be the leader of the root, not to save Kabuto the pharmacist.
And the pharmacist Nonou?"
"..."
Akihara Kagura slowly shook her head and said in a deep voice: "Let's leave here first and avoid the encirclement of the Iwa Ninja. Let's make a decision after we return to the Land of Fire!"
Akihara Kagura shook his head and sighed: "It is not easy to avoid the encirclement and blockade of the Iwa ninja, especially when you have to take Lord Tsuchikage with you."
"By the way, where's Itachi?"
Kakashi Hatake thought of another teammate, why Uchiha Itachi didn't come with him? Could that subordinate have been killed by Akihara Kagura?
"Itachi Uchiha didn't come with him."
Akihara Kagura sneered and continued nonchalantly: "Because he feels that it is too dangerous to come here to save you. In the future, he will become the leader of the root and a high-level official in Konoha. How can he take such a risk?"
"Itachi is not that kind of person..."
Hatake Kakashi frowned and smoothly defended Uchiha Itachi.
Although Hatake Kakashi and Uchiha Itachi didn't get along much, he thought that polite boy was not someone who would give up the lives of his teammates for power.
"Tsk..."
Akihara Kagura glanced at Kakashi Hatake and seemed a little confused: "People like me are here to save you, why wouldn't Itachi Uchiha be unwilling to come with me to save you? What's so important about him?
A mission? Does he think he is saving Konoha?"
"Ahem, don't belittle yourself..."
Hatake Kakashi coughed a few times and reminded: "Also, next time you save someone, can you check first to see if the person you want to save has been arrested?"
"Just tell me if you were rescued?"
When Akihara Kagura does things, she always seems to be results-oriented.
"..."
Hatake Kakashi is really hard to refute.
Judging from the results, he was indeed rescued, and he was not even tortured by Yanyin Village. The problem was that he felt a little uncomfortable mentally.
"correct."
Kakashi Hatake refused to discuss this matter anymore and whispered about his encounter with Kabuto Yakushi in Iwagakure Village: "Kabuto Yakushi seems to have received an assassination mission. He has always suspected that you want to control him and Yakushi Nono.
Yu kills each other..."
"oh."
Akihara Kagura looked calm and did not speak.
Akihara Kagura's eyes were still calm, and she slowly looked at Hatake Kakashi, with a suppressed look in her eyes, as if she was expecting, asking, and forcing.
"That guy Kabuto Yakushi..."
"Did you tell me where he went to carry out the assassination mission?"
"It seems like... Earth River Canyon."
Hatake Kakashi thought for a while and gave an answer, and then gave a time: "If I remember correctly, the time should be tomorrow. If we rush over, it should be in time, right?"
“More than enough.”
Akihara Kagura still acted very calmly when speaking.
"Are you going to kill him?"
Hatake Kakashi frowned and continued: "I heard him mention your past stories, mentioning that you and Danzo wanted to control him and Yakushi Noonoyu to kill each other..."
"..."
Akihara Kagura also frowned, pursed her lips and revealed a sneer, as if she was a little disgusted by Yakushi Kabuto's stupidity.
"That idiot..."
"Is that what I told you?"
"Well."
Hatake Kakashi rubbed the broken hair on his forehead and said softly: "I think it is unlikely that you would do such a thing. It should be what Danzo wants to do..."
Since knowing the past story of Akihara Kagura, Hatake Kakashi has understood the darkness inside this little guy and his tragic childhood.
This is a sad little guy.
Kakashi Hatake doesn't know what it feels like for Akihara Kagura to be forgotten or even abandoned, but he knows that it is definitely uncomfortable. Maybe that's why Akihara Kagura's behavior and personality have become more and more extreme.
"Feel sorry."
Hatake Kakashi put his hand on Akihara Kagura's shoulder.
This is because I feel sorry for not understanding Akihara Kagura's past and always misunderstanding his extremes. It's not easy for this little guy to still maintain the kindness in his heart.
"let's go."
Akihara Kagura didn't pay attention. He just reached out and picked up Onoki, the Third Tsuchikage. He turned around and looked at them and said, "Kang Phosphorus, your palms are all on me. I will use the Flying Thunder God Technique to take you out of here first!"
"Yes, Lord Kagura!"
Xiao Xianglan immediately reached out and grabbed Akihara Kagura's clothes.
The team disappeared instantly with their loot.
Akihara Kagura used the Flying Thunder God Technique and the Super Light Heavy Rock Technique along the way to lead them to easily fly past the blockade set up by the Iwa Ninjas and head straight towards the Tuhe Canyon.
Earth River Canyon.
Uchiha Itachi arrived here early.
This assessment task of killing two defectors was particularly important to Uchiha Itachi, and there was absolutely no room for any mistakes. He had even been squatting here for a whole day.
Until last night, Uchiha Itachi secretly saw a familiar figure here, that was the senior pharmacist Nono U that he had come into contact with...
This senior searched here for a long time, and finally laid some simple traps, found a rock, and hid it behind the rock...
Could it be that Yakushi Nonoyu also took over the task of assassinating the defector?
This is also possible.
It would not be surprising at all if Danzo Shimura was worried that he would not be able to complete the assessment and deliberately left a senior here to finish it off or to monitor his assessment.
In fact.
Yakushi Nonoyu was completely worried that he would not be able to complete the task.
It is not easy for a medical ninja to kill like a combat ninja. He can only use various means, whether it is ambushes, traps or poisoning.
March 16th.
Tuhe Canyon welcomed another person.
Itachi Uchiha recognized that this person was Kabuto Yakushi, another spy he had contacted before. Was this person also here to support him?
However…
Things developed beyond Uchiha Itachi's imagination!
While Uchiha Itachi was still thinking, Yakushi Nonou couldn't hold back and suddenly rushed towards Yakushi Kabuto, throwing a shuriken with his hand!
Kabuto Yakushi quickly dodged the incoming shuriken, tried his best to avoid Yakushi Nonou's attack, and slapped Yakushi Nonou on the shoulder!
"Dean!"
"I'm Kabuto! I'm Kabuto the pharmacist!"
Yakushi Kabuto pressed Yakushi Nonou's shoulder with one hand, stopping her from wanting to continue attacking, and explained in a deep voice: "Shimura Danzo deceived us! The photos he has been giving you are fake! Let us look at each other.
Massacre, this is the conspiracy of Kagura and Shimura Danzo!"
"What...means? You are Kabuto?"
A trace of doubt and confusion flashed in the eyes of pharmacist Nonoyu.
"it's me."
Kabuto Yakushi nodded quickly and mentioned their past in the orphanage: "Do you remember? Dean! It was you who gave me these glasses! It was you who taught me the medical ninjutsu! It was you who gave me this name.
!”
"The rules of the orphanage are that you must go to bed at nine o'clock in the evening, don't waste food when eating, you can't argue or quarrel with your peers, and you can't fight in the lounge..."
"Let's help treat the wounded in the war in exchange for funds..."
"Let's go pick up cartons together..."
The scenes in the Konoha Orphanage seemed to be memories engraved in Kabuto Yakushi's bones. Kabuto Yakushi always remembered every bit of his time in the orphanage...
These memories are real!
These stories are only known to children in the orphanage!
Especially because only he and pharmacist Nonoyu knew some things, and it was absolutely impossible for a third person to know!
Kabuto Yakushi talked about how he missed living in the orphanage, and said what he dreamed of saying to others: "I have always missed the dean, always wanted to see the dean, and always thought that maybe one day I could meet him again."
Being able to return to the orphanage..."
"pocket…"
Pharmacist Nonoyu's eyes were a little moist.
This gentle woman put her arms around Kabuto Yakushi's shoulders, just like she did when she was in the orphanage, and gently put her arms around his shoulders like a mother.
"You have grown so big..."
"Dean!"
Kabuto Yakushi could no longer suppress his emotions. After many years of missing and feeling, he was finally relieved. He finally saw the person he wanted to see again.
the most important is…
Finally, he and the dean no longer have to fight each other!
Their fate will never be the same as in Kagura's conspiracy!
"Ever since I joined the Roots, it wasn't long before I was sent to various places by Danzo as a spy. I never knew that the dean was looking for me..."
Kabuto Yakushi gradually calmed down and began to talk about his life after joining the Roots, subconsciously omitting some of the dangers and hardships he faced as a spy.
However, how could the pharmacist Nonoyu, who had always been a spy, not understand this? He could only gently reach out and rub his forehead, showing a warm smile.
"This is not your responsibility..."
Pharmacist Noonoyu shook his head and said his plan: "I made an agreement with Danzo that if we perform the last mission, we can let you leave your roots..."
"This is Kagura and Danzo's conspiracy."
Kabuto Yakushi shook his head quickly, gritted his teeth and said, "Duanzo never thought of letting us leave our roots. Danzo has been sending you my photos. Those photos are all fake. He has been deceiving you!"
"
"..."
Pharmacist Nonoyu slowly reached out and took out a photo from his arms. It was of a young man with a slightly evil smile.
"This is fake!"
Kabuto Yakushi quickly grabbed the photo and said in a deep voice: "Dean, in the assassination mission you received, there was my photo inside. This is Kagura's revenge, a conspiracy carefully designed by him and Danzo.
, he wants us to kill each other..."
"Kagura? This name sounds a bit familiar..."
Pharmacist Nonoyu vaguely felt that the name sounded familiar.
Pharmacist Nonoyu suddenly remembered something, and remembered when he had heard this name.
A few days ago, when she was meeting with a boy sent from Konoha, another boy suddenly appeared, but she almost mistaken him for an enemy and stabbed him...
That boy seems to know her?
Others call that boy Kagura-kun?
"Dean, do you still remember Kagura?"
Yakushi Kabuto looked at Yakushi Nonou and reminded him seriously: "Akihara Kagura, he was also a child in the orphanage. He didn't stay in the orphanage for long, and then he was abducted by Orochimaru and taken away for human experiments. At that time, we all thought he was
He is already dead, but in fact he is still alive!"
"ah!"
Pharmacist Nonoyu's expression slowly changed.
Yakushi Noonoyu didn't remember that she had adopted a child named Akihara Kagura. She just remembered the boy who smiled when she saw him. She thought of the boy who still didn't care about praising her after being stabbed by her!
"Is he...a child from the orphanage?"
Pharmacist Nonoyu's heart twitched slightly, and his body gradually began to tremble: "But... Kabuto... I seem to have forgotten him..."
Yakushi Nonoyu slowly turned her head to look at Yakushi Kabuto, tears flowing down her cheeks: "Kabuto... I should... I should not forget all the children... I will never forget all my children.
Child!"
"It doesn't matter."
Kabuto Yakushi looked a little depressed, and gently reached out to hug the dean, comforting her: "It's okay... dean... Kagura's matter... it's not your fault... this is Orochimaru's fault... this is Danzo
It’s Danzo’s fault that he hid the fact that Kagura is still alive from us!”
