Naruto: I can decompose everything

In the evening, in a secluded corner of Konoha Village, a dilapidated yet spacious old house stood quietly in the twilight.

Compared to the recent "liveliness" in the Uchiha clan's territory.

This place, though also in a remote location, is much quieter.

This is because this is an orphanage in Konoha.

In the courtyard, a woman in her twenties was gazing at the waning moon in the sky, her face full of sorrow.

Her long, light golden hair was partially hidden by a loose white hood, the exposed strands having a soft, voluminous feel. Her oval face had clean, smooth lines, and her deep green eyes were clear and serene. Looking out the window through thin-rimmed black glasses, the slightly upturned corners of her eyes added a touch of liveliness, and the pale pink under-eye bags further softened her gentle gaze...

She was a very beautiful woman, but also a very lonely one.

Her name is Yakushi Nono, and she is the director of this orphanage.

But this is only her public identity. Few people know that she has another identity—a former top spy for the Root organization, codenamed "The Walking Witch".

Only after countless missions stained with blood and tears did her loathing for war finally overcome everything else.

That's why, after a mission, he managed to break free from the Root's shackles and hid in a corner of Konoha to build this orphanage, taking in war orphans from all over the ninja world.

At this time, there were many orphans from all over the ninja world whom she had taken in inside the orphanage.

According to her original fate, she would eventually be blackmailed by Danzo with the survival of the orphanage, and forced to become a tool for killing once again.

Now that Danzo is dead, this threat has temporarily disappeared, but new difficulties have followed.

"Our funds are running low... What should we do?"

At this moment, Yakushi Nonou was sitting in her room, looking worried.

The orphanage she established was not a legitimate Konoha orphanage, but rather one she built privately using her savings accumulated from years of missions.

Therefore, compared to the orphanage established by Konoha that only took in orphans from Konoha itself, the orphans she could take in came from all over the ninja world...

But precisely because of this, Konoha can't allocate much funding to her in this regard.

Especially after the Nine-Tails' attack, the number of orphans in Konoha increased dramatically, and Konoha's own orphanages were short of funds. Naturally, no one had time to take care of her private orphanage that sheltered orphans from other villages and even other countries.

If it weren't for her ability to use her medical ninjutsu to help treat the village's ninjas in her spare time, the funds would probably have run out long ago.

"Danzo, Root..."

Whenever Yakushi Nonou thought of those two words, terrifying memories from the past kept flooding back into her mind.

But......

Two words that she once loathed are now things she can't escape and will have to face.

Although Konoha verbally agreed to provide aid, no funds have been allocated yet.

When winter comes, she will have no choice but to face the dilemma of whether to provide warm clothes for the children or firewood for heating.

Is it better to swallow your pride and beg the organization for money, or to stand by and watch the children go hungry and cold?

But is it worth it?

Feeling the terrible memories flooding her mind, she was caught in a dilemma.

until......

"Mother."

A timid voice called out from behind.

Yakushi Nonou suddenly snapped out of her daze and turned to look at the doorway.

There stood a white-haired boy wearing thick glasses, holding a thin blanket in his hands, his little face full of worry.

The person who came was Kabuto Yakushi. Although he was not the first child she took in, he was the smartest of all the children in the orphanage. At a young age, he had already learned excellent medical ninjutsu and went to the front line with her to treat the wounded.

Therefore, he was also the closest to her.

"Kabuto, why aren't you asleep yet? Didn't I tell you to take Nobita and the others to bed early?"

She tried to make her voice sound gentle.

"I've already let Nobita and the others sleep..."

Dou replied in a low voice, then paused for a few seconds before mustering up the courage to speak again.

"I heard you sigh... Is the orphanage out of money again?"

"How could this be...?"

She wanted to deny it, but the other person's young yet wise eyes seemed to see through everything.

This made Nonou's heart sink.

She always thought she had hidden her feelings well, but she couldn't escape the child's eyes.

She reached out and pulled the pocket to her side, touched his soft white hair, and stopped hiding it.

"Don't worry, Mom will find a way."

"I have a way too!"

Dou immediately looked up, her eyes sparkling behind her glasses.

"I can make money!"

"Um?"

"I know medical ninjutsu, so I can work at the Konoha Hospital, collect medicinal herbs in the forest next to the village to sell, and..."

He rambled on and on, though none of it actually solved the problem. But seeing his earnest expression, Nono's eyes welled up with tears, and she pulled him into her arms.

Feeling the child's thin yet warm body temperature, those terrible memories of the root organization and the heavy burden of reality were somewhat diluted by that innocent "I can make money."

......

Soon, Kabuto fell asleep, and Yakushi Nonou put him back to his bed in his room before going downstairs again.

But this time, the previous hesitation was gone from her face...

Kabuto's words made her understand the meaning of life and what she wanted.

"Even if I'm surrounded by darkness, as long as these children can live happily under the sun, I'll be content. Perhaps that's the meaning of my existence..."

She murmured to herself, as if she had finally made up her mind.

But at that moment...

"Slap! Slap! Slap!"

Applause erupted from the darkness, followed by shouts of praise.

"What a touching statement. As expected, compared to Danzo, your Will of Fire is truly convincing. Perhaps you are more suitable to be the leader of 'Root' than Danzo."

The newcomer was full of praise, but Yakushi Nonou showed no joy at all. Instead, she looked at the guy who had suddenly appeared in front of her with great vigilance.

"Who are you!?"

Although she spent most of her time traveling to various countries as a spy, and her greatest skill was medical ninjutsu, this does not mean that she only knew medical ninjutsu.

She also knows quite a few sensory-based ninjutsu.

She even set up small traps throughout the orphanage to help her detect any potential intrusions...

But from the moment the other party appeared, and even for several seconds afterward, she did not sense any related information.

In addition to what the other party just said...

"Whoosh!"

Before the newcomer could reply, Yakushi Nonou flicked her sleeve, sending out a barrage of shuriken. At the same time, she leaned forward, gathering chakra blades in her hand and charging towards the newcomer.

But the next moment, a pair of scarlet eyes rose up, freezing him in place!

Kaleidoscope Sharingan!!!

Upon seeing those eyes, Yakushi Nono's pupils suddenly contracted.

Although she hadn't made a point of inquiring about it during this time, as a former Root ace spy, she still knew why ninjas from other countries had been invading Konoha all this time.

But now...

The person those spies were looking for actually came looking for her!?

In an instant, she shuddered and looked at the newcomer with great fear.

Meanwhile, the so-called mysterious person, who was actually Uchiha Rin in disguise, was also curiously observing the woman in front of her who had caused Kabuto to turn evil in the future.
