Konoha: The Innately Evil Uchiha

Chapter 86 Poaching People Face-to-Face

Yakushi Kabuto stared wide-eyed at Yin Yue, who was standing on the giant serpent, and the white-eyed nun.

His expression was grave as he left the group.

"You're really lucky, kid. To be chosen by Lord Yinyue for a mere genin like yourself, keep up the good work with these lords, and hopefully one day your legend will be heard throughout the ninja world!"

The middle-aged Iwa ninja captain exchanged a few polite words.

With a simple, honest smile, he reached out and patted Dou's shoulder, pushing Dou in front of the giant serpent.

The tense expressions of the other Iwa ninjas eased, and the huge weight that had been hanging over their hearts was lifted.

Like ordinary people, they were unwilling to take the huge risk of serving a group of rogue ninjas.

"..."

Kabuto had a complicated expression.

He had learned about the situation of the Uchiha defector group through various information channels.

Kabuto also wanted to find out whether the blonde Byakugan nun who followed the Uchiha defector squad was his headmistress and adoptive mother.

Therefore, Kabuto was willing to take this risk and follow the Uchiha rogue ninja group for a period of time.

Swah——

As Kabuto shifted his feet, his figure leaped onto the body of the summoning serpent. The middle-aged Iwa ninja squad leader took his leave of Yin Yue and led his team away.

Rumbling--

The grass trembled.

With its forked tongue flicking, Orochimaru continued crawling toward Kusagakure at breakneck speed, galloping across the grassland.

A snake's head appeared in Yin Yue's mind, prompting a mission message.

[Side Quest]: Gift.

[Options]:

1. Receive the gifts from the hermit.

mission completed!

【award】:

Storage space increased by 100 cubic meters.

"Oh……"

Yin Yue's lips curled up slightly.

The mission was to slap him in the face.

He got stuck in a bug during the quest.

Replacing the civilian team sent by Iwagakure with Kabuto Yakushi, an undercover agent from Konoha, can be considered as accepting a gift from Iwagakure.

Concentrating intently, Yin Yue witnessed firsthand that the storage space had increased by another 100 cubic meters.

The space is square and expands outwards; the current storage space is 300 cubic meters, enough to store many corpses.

After accepting the reward, Yin Yue turned around and looked at the pharmacist who was slowly walking towards them.

Behind the snake's body.

Dou walked slowly forward.

He wore his signature round-framed glasses, a headband made of Iwa ninja scarf, and brown armor with a crimson undershirt.

Because of his young age, his face looked slightly immature.

He looked reserved.

The Iwa ninja armor was very loose on Kabuto's body, clearly not custom-made.

The ninja world is cruel; even young people who become ninjas are sent to the battlefield to carry out missions.

The other Uchiha members were unclear why Yin Yue had specifically requested this Iwa ninja boy.

Orochimaru's expression was unpredictable.

Previously, when Yin Yue poached Karin, Orochimaru didn't know who Karin was. Now, Kabuto Yakushi is a promising talent that Orochimaru had already scouted out.

Yin Yue is poaching people right in front of everyone!

"pocket……"

Nonou's face trembled, revealing worry. She called out softly and strode forward.

Upon hearing the other person call his name, Dou's pupils contracted, and he froze on the spot, staring incredulously at the blonde, white-eyed nun in front of him.

"The voice sounds so similar, who are you?"

Dou couldn't help but take two steps back.

"I am Pharmacist Nonou, your headmistress and foster mother," Nonou hurriedly explained, taking out a pair of round-framed glasses, the same style as Kabuto's, from her ninja tool bag.

"Dean..."

Dou exclaimed in surprise, his gaze drawn to the glasses.

The person may be faking it, but the details on the round frame are not worth the effort to imitate.

This blonde, white-eyed nun…

It really is the dean!

"Come……"

Nono wiped away the tears that streamed down her face from excitement and handed the round-framed glasses to Kabuto.

She tugged at Dou's sleeve, came before Yin Yue, and then knelt down with Dou to explain:

"Kabuto, this is Captain Yinyue... From now on, you should address him as 'Lord.' He is the leader we will follow from now on!"

Kabuto exclaimed in horror, "Dean, why is this happening? Aren't we Konoha ninjas?"

Upon hearing the name "Konoha," Tsunade lifted her head from Shizune's arms and stared at the mother and child.

"Let me explain..."

With a worried expression, Nonou recalled the events and then organized her thoughts to describe in detail Danzo's previous conspiracy against her and Kabuto.

The truth completely shattered Kabuto's worldview.

After hearing this, Tsunade turned ashen-faced and remained speechless throughout. This was something Danzo was capable of doing.

To cross the river and then dismantle the bridge.

To discard a donkey after it has served its purpose.

That damned old man misinterpreted Grandpa's original intention in founding Konoha, and secretly created one enemy after another for Konoha that should have been shining brightly for the village.

Furthermore, Danzo instigated the old man to annihilate the Uchiha clan, a political blunder that deserves contempt throughout Konoha's history.

"well--"

Tsunade sighed, lying in Shizune's arms, unwilling to face the shattered reality. All she wanted now was to drink and get completely drunk.

"Konoha wants you to kill me..."

Dou was lost in thought.

Looking up in the direction of Konoha, a gentle breeze ruffled his hair, causing his loose Iwa ninja headband to fall to the ground.

In the original plan.

After ending his three-year undercover mission in Iwagakure, Kabuto returned to Konoha with intelligence about Iwagakure and went back to the orphanage to help his foster mother manage it.

But unexpectedly.

Some time ago, Konoha suddenly asked him to send back information about Iwagakure.

It turned out that his once-proud home had already used him and wanted to abandon him and his adoptive mother.

A mother and son killing each other—what a tragic end.

bang——

Dou regained his senses, his face expressionless, and kowtowed heavily to Yin Yue.

Nonou bowed her head, her voice trembling with emotion, and said gratefully, "Captain, from now on, I'll do anything you want!"

Get up.

Yin Yue nodded, gesturing for the two to get up from the cold snake scales; he didn't like others kneeling before him.

After seeing Kabuto with the Iwa ninja team, Nonou completely believed what Yamizuki had said about Danzo's conspiracy.

She has already received a generous reward from Yinyue.

Unable to shamelessly ask the Uchiha to bring Kabuto along, Yin Yue was willing to exchange Kabuto for the laborers sent by the Iwa ninja, so that she could reunite with Kabuto and his mother.

This debt of gratitude was enough for her and Kabuto to sacrifice their lives when the Uchiha were in trouble.

"Hiss~" Orochimaru frowned.

If things continue at this pace, Kabuto Yakushi will inevitably become an outsider to the Uchiha clan.

"Yinyue-kun, there's something I want to discuss with you!" Orochimaru's golden vertical pupils looked at Yinyue.

Yin Yue turned her head to look at Orochimaru and said calmly, "Coincidentally, I also have something to discuss with you."

The two locked eyes.

"..." Orochimaru.

Yinyue spoke first:

"Kabuto is Nono's adopted son and is now considered a member of the Uchiha clan. Judging from his resume, Kabuto is an outstanding ninja prospect."

There was limited information that Uchiha could teach him.

I want him to learn from you.

In this way, Kabuto can also serve as a bond maintaining our alliance. What do you think?

"..."

Orochimaru's effeminate face contorted into a strange expression, as if he had swallowed something indescribable.

They took away the person he wanted.

Instead, they educated him to become successful, under the guise of maintaining the alliance between the two sides.

Orochimaru pondered the matter deeply, finally coming up with words to comfort himself.

What he valued was Kabuto's potential and his ability to get things done for him; whether Kabuto was one of Yin Yue's people or one of his own made no difference.

As Yin Yue said.

A pocket can serve as a bond between two parties.

Thinking about it that way...

Orochimaru calmed down, his expression gradually softened, and he replied with a smile:

"no problem!"

Otherwise, what else could Orochimaru do? This guy beside him could annihilate Jiraiya and Gamabunta with a single sword strike.

Yin Yue obtained Itachi's Susanoo through mysterious means and, after mastering the Totsuka Blade, was able to deal with him with ease.

Orochimaru was very nice.

There are reasons for that.

Yinyue suddenly asked, "Oh, by the way, what did you want to discuss with me just now?"

Orochimaru's expression froze, and he said awkwardly, "It's nothing, I've thought it through myself."

He wanted to take the pocket!
