Naruto: Who made him a ninja?

Kabuto reacted quickly, immediately understanding what Shuize meant. He lowered his head slightly to shield his mouth before speaking.

"Where do you think the Director is right now?"

"I can't answer that question."

Shuize was quite satisfied with Kabuto's performance. The kid really knew what was up, no wonder Orochimaru liked him so much.

"But I think there's a high probability it'll be your next place of infiltration."

"What do you mean?"

Kabuto was a little confused. Even though he didn't think Shuize would joke about something like this, he didn't understand what Shuize meant.

Could it be that Danzo was so kind as to arrange for them to meet?

But Shuize shook his head. He thought Kabuto was still a bit naive, and he was planning to give Kabuto a good lesson!

Now that Shuize had successfully made Danzo hated by both Sasori and the Sand Village, and Danzo would inevitably take the blame, it wouldn't hurt to expand the scope, right?

"The meaning is simple, and that is both you and the Director are in trouble."

Shuize also shielded his mouth slightly and said in a low voice.

"You've stated many times that you want to leave Root after completing your mission, but haven't you thought about what you've done? Do you think Root will let you leave?

The same goes for the Director, she also has illusions about Danzo. I'm afraid there's already a disaster buried here.

Don't think about refuting it, you should still remember how Danzo threatened the Director into joining Root, right?"

Shuize's words left Kabuto speechless. He wanted to refute it a bit. After all, Danzo was a high-ranking Konoha official, he couldn't be so untrustworthy, right?

But he had eavesdropped on Danzo and the Director's conversation back then, and coupled with the nature of Root's missions, he suddenly couldn't hold it together.

"As for why I say you and the Director will infiltrate the same place..."

Shuize tapped the table, reminding Kabuto not to show such an expression, and at the same time, he said faintly.

"When I was in Root, I once overheard the Director asking Danzo for photos of the two of us.

Let's assume, if I were Danzo, you are my subordinate, you are so disobedient, and your Director also has a similar mentality.

And in order to prevent Root's secrets from being leaked, eliminating you is the best choice!

But how can I not dirty my own hands and still have you die together? There is a very simple way.

Give fake photos to the Director. After all, how old were we when we entered Root, and how many years have passed now?

Time is changing, we are all growing up. Even if you and the Director meet, you won't be able to recognize each other, because the Director doesn't recognize you at all!"

Kabuto's face changed, he was completely defeated.

"Or, give our real photos to the Director, and then order the Director to kill the person in the photo.

When everything is over, then tell the Director what she has done, then..."

"Without Danzo even lifting a finger, the Director would probably commit suicide!"

Kabuto's face turned pale. He didn't need to think to know how much this would affect the Director.

Shuize nodded when he saw this. After all, not everyone is Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Obito.

One personally killed the teacher couple who took care of him, and the other directly attained enlightenment in the forest, and then killed the entire clan except for his younger brother.

Yakushi Nonou is a normal person, and the current Kabuto is not a psychopath yet, otherwise he wouldn't have broken down after killing Nonou and discovering that Nonou didn't recognize him.

"So, you have harmed many people from the beginning, whether it's yourself, the Director, or me."

Shuize looked at the defeated Kabuto and continued to speak, but after thinking about it, he immediately added.

"Of course, all of this is my speculation, everything depends on the follow-up, such as whether you will be dispatched again soon..."

Kabuto was silent, he didn't know what to say at this time.

He was extremely confused in his heart, because he was still willing to believe Danzo to some extent, willing to believe the Konoha high-level officials.

But Shuize was his childhood friend, grew up together in the orphanage, and was even tricked into Root by himself, his abilities had already been revealed in the Land of Wind.

When he said such a conclusion, Kabuto had to seriously consider it even if he didn't want to believe it!

It's just that he doesn't know who to believe now, he himself has fallen into confusion.

"What exactly do you want, Shuize."

After a while, Kabuto slowly recovered. After all, he was an excellent spy, he knew he had to stay calm.

"Me?"

Shuize blinked, he touched his chin and said.

"Naturally, it is to marry a few more wives in the future, live a good life, and didn't Buddha say: 'Without indulging in desires, all actions are meaningless'?"

"..."

Damn it, is that what I asked you?

Moreover, did Buddha say that?

Kabuto's face froze, just as he was about to say something, Shuize continued to speak.

"Of course, if you want to live a stable life, some things must be resolved.

Entering Root is a abyss. In the ninja village model, without strength and status, you will always be just a tool.

If we want to climb out of the abyss, if we want to change from a tool to someone who controls the tool, then we must find a way to climb up step by step!

Why should we be suppressed by people like Danzo all the time, why should we have our lives controlled by him?

Also, why can't we be the ones sitting in that position?"

Shuize is an old slick, that's right, but to be an old slick, at least he has to be able to live, right?

In Root, he could be sold by Danzo at any time, and he could be forced to carry out some messy and deadly missions at any time.

At the same time, he would be forcibly brainwashed, making him neither human nor ghost, this is definitely not something Shuize can tolerate!

After all, before transmigrating, I grew up watching 'Great Sage Sun'. You won't even let me live, so am I not allowed to resist?

In fact, Hidezawa knew that he shouldn't say such things to Kabuto, but he knew even better that if he didn't leave something for Kabuto, this 'spy' would definitely not be at ease.

Moreover, he dared to say it because he had confidence!

"Aren't you afraid that I'll tell Danzo these words?"

After a long while, Kabuto slowly asked.

"Not afraid."

Hidezawa shook his head unceremoniously, then he pointed to himself and then to Kabuto.

"I have made such great contributions for Danzo, and he knows how I treated you when I first entered the Root.

Maybe you've held a grudge against me for a long time and want to harm me. Tell me, who will he believe then, you or me?

Of course, even if he suspects me, you'll be dead by then, and I'll still have a chance to leave, won't I?"

Kabuto almost couldn't hold back again. What he said was right, but wasn't he being a bit too unscrupulous?

"Think about it carefully."

Looking at Kabuto, who had fallen silent again, Hidezawa patted him on the shoulder and said softly.

"Even if not for yourself, think about the orphanage. Do you want to work for others your whole life, exchanging meager rewards to help the orphanage?

Or would you rather have ready-made... No, sign yourself and you can allocate funds to the orphanage, helping more people like us and giving people like the headmaster a better home?"

Kabuto didn't know how to answer for a moment, but he had to admit that he was tempted.

Everything else was fine, and he wasn't even interested in Hidezawa's ambition, but the last sentence hit him where it hurt!

"What do I need to do?"

After a long while, he calmly raised his head to look at Hidezawa, and just as Hidezawa was about to speak, he suddenly looked towards the door and removed the soundproof barrier.

At this time, an Anbu member quickly ran over. He glanced at Kabuto, then whispered to Hidezawa.

"Lord Hokage orders you to immediately gather at the Root with your equipment."

"..."

Hidezawa was stunned. Were they going to attack the Root?!

Rookie begs for continued reading. Continued reading now determines everything about a book. Raising a book easily kills it...

Thank you, everyone, Onz.

Chapter 30: Danzo Explodes in Anger

"Senior, what's going on?"

Although Hidezawa looked confused, he couldn't disobey the Third Hokage's order. After gathering, he couldn't help but whisper to Yugao beside him.

In fact, he already had some guesses in his mind. After all, judging from the time, it was most likely the 'Kinoe Transforms into Yamato' incident.

But no matter what, it was still necessary to understand a little.

"According to Senior Kakashi's report, there is a ninja in the Root who seems to have Wood Release and wants to kill Senior Kakashi."

Yugao was not wary of Hidezawa at all. In fact, she didn't know much about the Root, Danzo, or anything like that.

She originally planned to go home and prepare for tonight's gathering after the disbandment, but she happened to meet Kakashi and noticed that Kakashi was injured and wanted to take him for treatment.

As a result, they went to see the Third Hokage together and were eventually assigned a mission.

"Lord Hokage wants Lord Danzo to meet him and sent someone to find you, saying that you used to train there and are more familiar with the situation there.

But Senior Kakashi doesn't seem willing to wait long and went ahead alone."

Sure enough!

Hidezawa couldn't help but nod slightly when he heard this. It really was that incident.

Before going to Suna, Hiruzen Sarutobi said that Kakashi was going to deal with Orochimaru's matter, and he had been suspicious at that time.

He didn't expect that after all his messing around, this incident still happened as scheduled.

"Wait, I remember that Kakashi's negotiations with the Root were very unsuccessful..."

Suddenly, Hidezawa thought of something, which made him interested. This was a rare opportunity!

"Let's hurry up and act. Lord Hokage is gathering other people. Let's reinforce Senior Kakashi first!"

Yugao didn't know what Hidezawa was thinking. She grabbed Hidezawa's hand and ran forward, while she couldn't help but ask.

"Also, what is the Root like?"

"The Root, ah..."

Hidezawa subconsciously tightened his grip on Yugao's hand, sighing in his heart, 'Her hand is so smooth,' then shook his head and said.

"That is the training base for the Anbu elite, but it is also a very bad place.

The strictest management, the most brutal training, and the bloodiest missions.

Senior Kakashi going there alone is probably in trouble, even if he has Lord Hokage's documents."

"Does Konoha have such a place that is not under the control of Lord Hokage?"

Yugao seemed to be taken aback. She naturally knew that Danzo was the Hokage Assistant of Konoha, with a very high status.

But even so, it shouldn't be out of Lord Hokage's control, right?

"Who knows."

Hidezawa shrugged. Danzo even assassinated Hiruzen Sarutobi and nothing happened!

Of course, this may also be related to Hiruzen Sarutobi's sentimentality.

Moreover, Danzo is now much more honest because Nagato went berserk, causing a round of destruction in the Root.

Otherwise, according to Danzo's previous style, he might not have taken Hiruzen Sarutobi seriously at all.

[New Mission Acquired: Reinforce Kakashi]

After glancing at his list, Hidezawa nodded in satisfaction, then pulled Yugao's little hand even harder.

"Let's speed up. Senior Kakashi may have a conflict with them, and we should be ready for battle at any time!"
