Starting as a working person from Naruto

Chapter 20 Kabuto Yakushi, How Unfair This Is…

Akihara Kagura was telling the truth.

In her past life's memories, Akihara Kagura had some impression of Yakushi Kabuto.

The future Kabuto Yakushi is a very useful talent. His spy skills alone are already better than many people's. He is probably only slightly inferior to Akihara Kagura.

In addition, Kabuto Yakushi is also very intelligent and has a great talent for learning. In the future, he can help with human experiments, improve various forbidden ninjutsu, and may even help Akihara Kagura learn the most mysterious Sage Mode in the ninja world.

all in all.

This man is a talented individual.

What does the ninja world need most? Talented individuals.

In an attempt to get closer to Kabuto Yakushi, Akihara Kagura fabricated a story about herself being born in an orphanage at Training Ground 9. This only managed to make Kabuto feel a little goodwill towards her, but not to make him truly trust her.

The best way...

It's definitely a strong bond.

What is the most important thing in the ninja world? It's bonds.

If you can create a potentially strong bond with Kabuto Yakushi, you can make Kabuto remember your existence, and in the future, you will have the opportunity to make him one of your own.

however…

The two people actually have no connection whatsoever...

Therefore, Akihara Kagura first talks about how she also came from the Konoha orphanage, how she misses her life there, and how she longs for the orphanage director…

These…

It's all fake.

However, these false feelings are actually Yakushi Kabuto's true inner feelings.

The person who actually came from the orphanage is Kabuto Yakushi, the person who truly misses orphanage life is Kabuto Yakushi, the person who truly misses the orphanage director, Nono Yakushi, is Kabuto Yakushi, and the person who truly wants Nono Yakushi to see a photo of her as an adult is Kabuto Yakushi…

Akihara Kagura telling these lies was just a warm prelude, making Yakushi Kabuto believe that the two had something in common;

Now, Akihara Kagura needs to use a tragic story to break through the warm prelude and convince Yakushi Kabuto that there is actually a bond between the two of them.

As long as there is a bond between the two...

There is a possibility that in the future, Kabuto the Pharmacist might help him.

After all, Akihara Kagura doesn't possess any Kotoamatsukami genjutsu to change the other party's will, nor does she have the system ability to detect whether the other party will be loyal to her, and she certainly doesn't know any low-level, dangerous, and troublesome control methods like planting a cursed seal in the other party's vital points...

Akihara Kagura is just a working-class person.

If a working person wants to get more, they can only use some crude methods, such as trying to make more capable friends.

"Yakushi Kabuto".

Akihara Kagura stared at Yakushi Kabuto, whose expression was full of wariness, and smiled amusedly: "What did you think I wanted you to do?"

"I don't know yet..."

Kabuto frowned, thought for a moment, and then replied, "But I know one thing. When you saw me, it wasn't because you were happy to see someone from the same orphanage as you said..."

"When you first mentioned Dean Nonou's name, there wasn't much of a longing look on your face; it was more like you were talking about someone you hadn't seen in a long time..."

"but."

"I'm still very happy today."

"Because no one has brought up the past in a long time."

"Because everything you said on the training field was exactly what I wanted to say."

"Perhaps it's because I've been suppressed in this organization for too long..."

Kabuto adjusted his glasses and said softly, "I miss my time in the orphanage more and more, and I miss the person who treated me like a mother more and more..."

When Kabuto Yakushi got to this point, he suddenly changed the subject: "However... you don't miss your days at the orphanage, nor do you miss Director Nono..."

"Yeah?"

"Lord Kagura of the Root Organization."

A newfound determination flickered in Kabuto's eyes. He trusted the intuition and experience he had gained from years of espionage: "You hate me... and you hate Dean Nonou too..."

"You say you want to take care of me, but you've made me offend other members of the Root organization, those combat ninjas I can't afford to offend..."

"You don't want me to stay in Root any longer..."

"You even want to use the people of Root to kill me..."

Kabuto felt he might have guessed some of the truth and asked softly, "Am I right, Kagura-sama?"

"..."

Snap... Snap... Snap... Snap...

The boy couldn't help but clap his hands, his smile widening as he nodded in praise, "Well said, you guessed it all."

Not bad my ass!

This guy guessed everything wrong!

Did Kabuto not question the authenticity of this medicine? Or did he believe he wasn't worth being deceived? Is Kabuto really that clever?

Ok.

Everything was originally an illusion.

Kabuto could only guess at false results from false directions; at this point, it was already quite good that he could guess that he had just drafted a tragic storyline.

"I don't quite understand."

Kabuto looked at the boy with a hint of doubt in his eyes: "You were also adopted by Director Nonou and lived in the village's orphanage. There shouldn't be any hatred between us."

"Why wouldn't it exist?"

Akihara Kagura couldn't help but laugh heartily.

The young man slowly opened his palm and said, word by word, "Many great hatreds often originate from a small matter, a sudden thought that arises in a person's mind..."

"What do you mean?"

Kabuto didn't quite understand.

"envy."

"One of the original sins of the world."

Akihara Kagura slowly walked towards Yakushi Kabuto, her smile gradually turning cold: "If there were no comparisons in this world, there would be no hurt, and no emotion like jealousy would arise..."

"envy?"

"Yes, an unprecedented level of jealousy..."

Akihara Kagura approached Yakushi Kabuto, the boy's eyes gradually turning cold and sharp: "Why do you share the same surname as Principal Nonou? Why does Principal Nonou keep thinking about you? We're both just adopted children, and I was here first..."

"because…"

Kabuto hesitated before giving his answer: "When I was adopted by Director Nonou, I had forgotten all my memories, including my name and parents. That's why Director Nonou gave me her surname..."

Kabuto Yakushi, remembering the woman who was as warm as a mother, continued, "Director Nonou... has she always thought of me?"

"yes…"

"She's always been thinking about you..."

"They even forgot that there was another child who was sent to the Roots base."

Akihara Kagura slowly turned around and walked step by step into the covered bridge: "I didn't want to hate her, nor did I want to hate you, and I didn't even want you to enter Root..."

"but…"

"I saw what she did for you, I saw her constantly inquiring about you from within the organization, but she never remembered me. She has no idea what kind of life I had here, how I was bullied here when I was a child!"

"Perhaps... she has already forgotten me."

"I've slowly started to hate her, and I also loathe you, the one I care about. I've realized something: I, who have been carrying out the will of the Root, have developed feelings of jealousy..."

"Even though we've already entered the root..."

"We're exactly the same kind of people..."

"Yakushi Kabuto..."

"How unfair this is..."
