Starting as a working person from Naruto

Chapter 93 Kabuto Yakushi, it's been a long time!

"Kagura-kun".

"We've wasted too much time here."

Uchiha Itachi once again ignored Akihara Kagura's advice.

Like most members of the Uchiha clan, Itachi Uchiha also had a stubborn and obstinate side, and would never listen to Kagura Akihara's advice.

This small team set off towards the Land of Earth.

Shortly after they left, Kaguya (the Taketori clan) infiltrated the forest and discovered that the defenses of the Land of Grass had vanished without a trace. These crazed ninjas, disregarding whether it was a trap or not, attacked the Hidden Grass Village directly and simply occupied the empty village.

Many years ago.

Because a certain guy named Uchiha Madara was too powerful, and the Uchiha clan he led was even more warlike than the Kaguya clan, he directly drove the Kaguya clan to the Land of Water.

The Kaguya clan has been striving to find a settlement, but due to their warlike nature, they are not accepted by other ninja villages. They have even discussed attacking Kirigakure. This time, they are attacking the Land of Grass as mercenaries, which may be a sign that they intend to return to the ninja world.

Now the Kaguya clan finally has a place to settle down.

Although this place of refuge was just a small country, it was a place of refuge for them, and they immediately sent people to bring the people of the Water Kingdom over.

Konoha, Hokage Building.

The changes in the Land of Grass have drawn the attention of Konoha.

The entire ninja world knows that the Kaguya clan has a warlike gene in their bones, so there is no help to worry that these guys will overestimate their abilities and launch a crazy attack on Konoha.

"Send Hiashi on a diplomatic mission."

Hiruzen Sarutobi was very knowledgeable about family history during the Sengoku period: "I remember, isn't the Hyuga clan a distant relative of the Kaguya clan?"

Just like the Senju and Uzumaki clans, the Hyuga and Kaguya clans are related, and the two clans even occasionally maintain a Sengoku-era aristocratic relationship.

"snort…"

Danzo Shimura always held opposing views on Hiruzen Sarutobi's normal opinions: "The Kaguya clan will cause trouble sooner or later, so let me find an opportunity to deal with them..."

"Danzo, you're going a bit too far."

Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head and continued, "Many things, if handled properly, can actually bring greater benefits to Konoha."

Hiruzen Sarutobi pulled out his pipe and exhaled a puff of smoke: "Did you talk to Itachi last time? Is he willing to help us intervene in the Uchiha clan's attitude towards Konoha?"

"We'll find out when that little guy comes back from Iwagakure."

Danzo Shimura squinted, satisfied with his assessment of Itachi Uchiha: "If he's willing to become our eyes and ears, things will be much easier to handle regarding the Uchiha clan."

The Land of Earth.

The entire geographical environment consists of rocky mountains.

On the one hand, this geographical environment makes it difficult for Iwagakure to communicate with the outside world; on the other hand, this geographical environment also greatly reduces the possibility of the Land of Earth being invaded.

Iwagakure only needs to defend on narrow roads. Unless invaded from the coastline, other villages will find it difficult to attack the Land of Earth from the land, and there is even a risk of total annihilation if they venture too far.

Iwagakure Village is known for its strong defenses, surrounded by densely packed fortified rocks, making infiltration extremely difficult.

Other than that.

The number of ninjas in Iwagakure should be the largest among the five great ninja villages.

During the Third Shinobi World War, Iwagakure was fighting on multiple fronts simultaneously. On one hand, it sent troops to attack the Land of Fire, nearly breaching the Land of Fire's defenses; on the other hand, it dispatched tens of thousands of troops to besiege the ninja forces of Kumogakure. If it weren't for the Third Raikage of Kumogakure risking his life to cover their retreat, the entire elite force of Kumogakure might have been wiped out.

same.

Most ninjas in Iwagakure have difficulty recognizing their own ninjas. Furthermore, ninjas need to carry out assigned missions to make a living, so many Iwagakure ninjas may never have the chance to meet a comrade they've only met once in their entire lives.

After infiltrating Iwagakure, Kabuto Yakushi had been trying to find Dean Nono Yakushi, who was also hiding in Iwagakure, hoping to meet with his dean and inform him about the conspiracy from Danzo Shimura, as well as Kagura Akihara, whom the dean had forgotten.

Unfortunately, the time was too short.

Kabuto Yakushi was also unaware of Yakushi Nonou's code name.

In case Yakushi Nonou stops lurking in Iwagakure as a walking shrine maiden, Kabuto might expose the headmaster's identity if he rashly inquires. In order to avoid exposing his own identity, Kabuto must live as a normal ninja.

result…

Chaos erupted in Iwagakure once again as Obito Uchiha controlled the Five-Tails Jinchuriki to assassinate the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, leading to the entire village being sealed off for a week.

This made Kabuto Yakushi's mission even more difficult.

Fortunately, the blockade of Iwagakure was finally lifted.

Fearing that he would attract attention, Kabuto dared not take any further action and could only continue to dutifully carry out his assigned tasks in Iwagakure.

Recently, Kabuto Yakushi has been carrying out an escort mission in a border town of the Land of Earth because he believes that Dean Nono Yakushi might appear there, and Konoha is very likely to ask them for information about Iwagakure and Obito Uchiha.

as predicted.

Kabuto Yakushi discovered a contact code left to him by Konoha spies in the border town, so he had to rush over to meet them.

result…

At the meeting point, Kabuto met a black-haired boy.

"Uchiha Itachi..."

Kabuto felt a little relieved.

Fortunately, it was Itachi Uchiha who arrived at this time, not Kagura Akihara.

After Itachi Uchiha and Kakashi Hatake arrived in the Land of Earth, they were told to find a place to stay while it was its leader's turn to try to contact the Land of Earth's intelligence agency.

Good luck.

There happened to be an intelligence agent here.

Kabuto walked casually toward Itachi Uchiha, and when he reached the boy's side, he suddenly grabbed him and dragged him into a small alley!

"I am Kabuto Yakushi, a member of the intelligence department."

Kabuto Yakushi silenced Itachi Uchiha with just one sentence.

"..."

When Itachi Uchiha heard Kabuto Yakushi's name, he didn't immediately believe it. Instead, he carefully exchanged the Konoha Intelligence Department's secret code, which was exclusive to Kabuto.

"Dock successful."

Itachi's expression relaxed, and he asked, "I'm here to request assistance from intelligence agents to help us investigate Obito's control of the Five-Tails Jinchuriki. Do you have any information about Obito's whereabouts?"

"I know some."

Kabuto adjusted his glasses and said softly, "When Han, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, attempted to assassinate the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, he was subdued on the spot. Onoki discovered that Han was being controlled by the Sharingan, and then Obito Uchiha suddenly appeared..."

"The Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, attempted to capture Obito Uchiha but failed, allowing Obito to escape and declare that he would completely destroy Iwagakure next time, which enraged Onoki..."

"The entire Hidden Stone Village has been under lockdown for a week, with everyone searching for Obito Uchiha. I haven't yet found any results from this operation..."

"Maybe they caught them...maybe they didn't..."

"This is a secret known only to the higher-ups of Iwagakure. As a genin, I can't find out any specific information. You'd better give me a little more time."

"Can."

Itachi Uchiha nodded.

This kind of thing is not easy to find out.

Hearing that the person sent by his superior was willing to give him more time, Kabuto Yakushi felt a little relieved. As long as Konoha still needed his information, the crisis for himself and Dean Nono Yakushi should be delayed.

"Oh, right."

Itachi Uchiha took out a red scroll and handed it to Kabuto Yakushi: "This is the latest mission that Lord Danzo gave you."

"I see."

Kabuto Yakushi reached out and took the red scroll. As if remembering something, he suddenly asked, "By the way, I wanted to ask someone, how is Akihara Kagura doing in Root? I remember you and he were both candidates for the Chunin Exams. Did he pass the exam?"

"..."

Itachi Uchiha hesitated.

The intelligence on this spy's members is way too slow!

At this moment, Itachi Uchiha was unsure whether he should say anything more. He knew that Kabuto Yakushi and Kagura Akihara were close, but if he revealed that Kagura Akihara was also present, and the two of them were to make contact in private, wouldn't that violate the rules of the Konoha Intelligence Department?

however…

Itachi Uchiha will soon no longer have to worry about this problem.

"Kabuto Yakushi, your question is very rude."

Akihara Kagura quietly appeared beside Yakushi Kabuto and said somewhat casually, "The Uchiha Itachi standing in front of you will take over the position of Root leader from Danzo in the future. Asking him about the Chunin Exams is like rubbing salt in his wounds, isn't it?"

"Akihara Kagura!"

Kabuto's expression suddenly turned somewhat panicked.

Although I have been very concerned about Kagura Akihara's news, I absolutely do not want to see him here, especially at this time and place!

"Kagura-kun!"

Uchiha Itachi stepped forward and warned Akihara Kagura that she had violated Konoha's rules: "Unless you have permission, you are prohibited from contacting members of the Intelligence Department privately. Doesn't that violate Konoha's regulations?"

Uchiha Itachi looked at Yakushi Kabuto, whose body was trembling slightly, and said softly, "Yakushi Kabuto, you can go now."

"Yes."

Kabuto immediately wanted to leave; he couldn't waste any more time here and had to find the headmaster as soon as possible!

Kabuto Yakushi knew that Akihara Kagura was lawless within Root. He didn't believe that Akihara Kagura would abide by any rules, nor did he believe that Akihara Kagura wouldn't dare to kill him and the headmaster!

but…

Kabuto was vaguely curious…

How did Uchiha Itachi become Shimura Danzo's successor? Is Shimura Danzo about to die? And what is Akihara Kagura's identity?

"Don't rush off..."

Kagura Akihara watched with interest as Kabuto Yakushi stopped, and said with a smile, "Kabuto Yakushi, you should know what my presence here means, right?"

"I know…"

Kabuto slowly lowered his head.

"That's good."

Akihara Kagura nodded in satisfaction, glancing at the red scroll in his hand: "Looks like you have a new mission. Go and complete yours first!"

"As for our matter..."

"There's no rush."

Akihara Kagura looked at the somewhat uneasy Yakushi Kabuto with a playful smile in her eyes.

"..."

Beads of cold sweat slowly trickled down the pharmacist's forehead.

Akihara Kagura stared at Yakushi Kabuto, her smile growing wider: "Since we're already here, those who need to be seen should be seen, and those who need to be killed should be killed..."

"..."

Itachi Uchiha felt that things might not be as simple as he thought.

Is the relationship between Akihara Kagura and Yakushi Kabuto really as good as Hatake Kakashi says?

Why does Akihara Kagura speak with sarcasm? Why is Yakushi Kabuto so afraid when he sees Akihara Kagura here?

"Yakushi Kabuto, you should go first."

Uchiha Itachi stood firmly in front of Akihara Kagura, gesturing for Yakushi Kabuto to leave first.

"..."

Kabuto stood rooted to the spot, too afraid to move.

Compared to Itachi Uchiha, Kabuto Yakushi was more worried about Kagura Akihara's attitude.

"Yakushi Kabuto, you can leave now."

Kagura Akihara's words were like a pardon to Kabuto Yakushi.

Just as Kabuto was about to leave, Akihara Kagura looked at Uchiha Itachi as if she were speaking to him: "Whether anyone can stop me from killing in the future depends on your luck..."
