and also……

Where is the photo of the target you need to assassinate?

Why can I be sure that the person appearing there must be the person I want to assassinate!

unless……

The person who was assassinated was also arranged...

This time, this place, and the sudden appearance of Akihara Kagura...

All of this information was telling Yakushi Kabuto that the person to be assassinated in the mission scroll was most likely the Yakushi Nono that he had been looking for.

If Kabuto Yakushi had not received any intelligence information from Akihara Kagura, he might not have thought of this problem; however, Kabuto Yakushi was particularly careful at this time and did not want any trouble to arise that might lead to the death of him and Nono Yakushi.

"There's still time."

Pharmacist Kabuto gritted his teeth and destroyed the red scroll: "If I still haven't found the dean by then, I'll go there and see if the dean appears there..."

Kabuto Yakushi still has hope for the future in his heart: "As long as we can explain Shimura Danzo's conspiracy to the dean, we won't kill each other..."

the other side.

In the alley of a border town.

Uchiha Itachi was a little helpless with Akihara Kagura: "Kagura-kun, please do not violate the regulations and rules of the Intelligence Department. This will put them in danger..."

"I am their danger."

Akihara Kagura spread out her hands, seeming to be even more helpless than Uchiha Itachi: "I will kill them sooner or later, do you really want to protect their safety?"

"I must protect the safety of my companions."

Uchiha Itachi's expression immediately turned serious: "Kagura-kun, I know you were once a ninja from the Root, and perhaps you still retain the Root's style of doing things..."

Uchiha Itachi had already seen the ways of the Root.

Uchiha Itachi also understood why Akihara Kagura was so unscrupulous.

For a long time, only the Root in Konoha would kill their companions, and they didn't even need the approval of the Hokage, but only followed the orders of Danzo Shimura to kill people.

"The Root can kill my companions, so I want to return to the Root..."

Akihara Kagura shook her head, not seeming to care about Uchiha Itachi's words at all: "If you think I'm wrong, go and report to Danzo-sama. Do you think that by making a small report, you can secure your position as the future leader of the Root?"

"I never thought about the position of Root leader."

Uchiha Itachi rubbed his forehead and continued, "Kagura-kun, can you please stop following me? I have to find the next member of the intelligence department and convey Lord Danzo's order."

"It's against the rules anyway..."

Akihara Kagura shrugged and didn't care any more: "One more time, one less time, it doesn't make any difference to me. Let's go, let me see who the next person is..."

Uchiha Itachi tried to persuade Akihara Kagura to understand a truth: "Unless permitted, Konoha ninjas cannot casually know the identities of intelligence department members..."

“It would jeopardize their safety.”

Akihara Kagura added what Uchiha Itachi wanted to say, scratched his ears and said: "I came here to endanger their safety. Do you think I am the one who protects them?"

"..."

Itachi Uchiha felt like he was stuck in a vicious circle.

However, Uchiha Itachi was not without a solution. He simply went back to the hotel where they were staying, took Akihara Kagura back, and then sneaked out himself.

Uchiha Itachi believed that his anti-tracking technology could definitely get rid of Akihara Kagura, so he confidently tried to contact the next member of the Intelligence Department according to the contact code.

Inside the hotel.

While teaching Karin how to refine chakra, Hatake Kakashi said to Akihara Kagura, "Kagura, don't disturb Itachi's work. Although I know you really want to meet Kabuto Yakushi and Dean Nono, we can't contact the members of the intelligence department casually."

"Fragrant phosphorus."

Akihara Kagura ignored Hatake Kakashi and turned to look at Karin: "Help me find the location of Uchiha Itachi."

"Don't help him."

Hatake Kakashi shook his head.

"But……"

Little Karin looked at Akihara Kagura uneasily, then looked at Hatake Kakashi, and said embarrassedly: "That is Kagura-sama's request, I can't refuse."

After saying that, Karin closed her eyes, but opened them suddenly in an instant. The entire border town was within her perception range!

"I'm here to look for...Itachi Uchiha's chakra..."

Little Karin locked onto the target in an instant and pointed out the direction for Akihara Kagura: "In the alley in the northwest, Uchiha Itachi is there!"

"keep it up."

Akihara Kagura patted her little head.

In the northwest alley of the border town.

Yakushi Nono and Yakushi Kabuto have exactly the same idea.

After the incident in which Uchiha Obito controlled the Five-Tails Jinchuriki and the Iwagakure Village blocked the entire village for a week, Konoha would definitely be eager to send people to ask the intelligence personnel for information.

After seeing his own contact code, Yakushi Nono quickly contacted Uchiha Itachi and reported the recent major events in the Iwagakure Village.

Compared to Kabuto Yakushi, Nono Yakushi obviously had more contact and even received clear information that the Iwagakure Village did not capture Uchiha Obito.

"This is your new mission."

Uchiha Itachi handed Yakushi Nono a blue scroll and said, "Senior Yakushi Nono, Lord Danzo asked me to tell you that this is the last mission."

"Thank you."

Pharmacist Nono thanked him sincerely.

In all her years of spy career, Yakushi Nono had never seen such a polite junior, which even made her feel a little uncomfortable.

of course.

Most importantly, he brought good news.

The last mission!

Yakushi Nono didn't care what the mission in the blue scroll was. She was more concerned about what would happen after the last mission was completed...

Once you complete this mission...

It will free Yakushi Kabuto from the root!

This is the agreement between Yakushi Nono and Shimura Danzo.

The last time they contacted each other, Danzo Shimura promised her that as long as she completed one last mission, he would let Kabuto Yakushi leave the Root and she would no longer have to live this precarious life as a spy!

"move."

Uchiha Itachi didn't intend to continue communicating with her.

In order to protect the identity of the spy, Uchiha Itachi shortened the communication time as much as possible, mainly because he was a little worried that Akihara Kagura would suddenly appear.

This task is so difficult...

Generally speaking, isn't it true that spies only need to be on guard against being discovered by the enemy? Why should they also be on guard against being discovered by their own people?

however……

It's still a little late.

Because when Pharmacist Nono was about to leave, a figure quietly appeared in front of her, which instantly aroused her vigilance!

"who!"

Yakushi Nono thought that his meeting with Uchiha Itachi had been discovered, so a kunai quickly appeared from his sleeve and he swung it towards the approaching person!

This is a young man.

A boy that Yakushi Nono doesn't know!

However, regardless of the boy’s skills or the timing of his appearance here, it is unlikely that he is one of us. He can only be an enemy of the Iwagakure Village!

The young man raised his hand to stop the kunai!

Yakushi Nono's kunai directly cut his arm, leaving a long wound, and the blood instantly dyed the boy's arm red!

“Don’t do it…”

Uchiha Itachi had already recognized Akihara Kagura's appearance, and hurriedly opened his mouth to try to stop her: "This is a ninja from the village... Yakushi Nono-senpai..."

Uchiha Itachi remembered that Hatake Kakashi mentioned Akihara Kagura and Yakushi Nono, and asked in surprise: "You...should know each other, right?"

"Long time no see, Dean Nono."

Akihara Kagura had seen the photo of Pharmacist Nonoyu before, and wiped the blood off her arm carelessly: "The dean probably doesn't recognize me, or even remember me..."

"..."

A hint of doubt flashed through Yakushi Nono's mind.

Is this boy someone I know? Or is he a child who grew up in an orphanage? Otherwise, why would he call me the dean?

Since agreeing to serve as a spy again with Danzo Shimura, Yakushi Nono has not returned to the Konoha Orphanage for a long time. Is this child a child who grew up in an orphanage?

"Let me treat you first..."

Yakushi Nono looked at the blood flowing on Akihara Kagura's arm, and a ball of light green chakra quickly appeared in her palm.

"There is no need for that."

Akihara Kagura shook her head and slowly raised her arm. The wound on it was healing rapidly. This was the healing power brought by Hashirama's cells.

"You are……"

Pharmacist Nono racked his brains thinking about the children in the orphanage. Which child had this magical healing ability?

like……

not a single one.

If he is not a child from an orphanage, then he should be a child from the village. Which child in Konoha has such a magical recovery ability?

Yakushi Nono felt a little ashamed, feeling that she still couldn't remember it. Her spy career over the years had really consumed a lot of her energy...

"I'm so sorry!"

A gentle smile appeared on the face of the pharmacist Nono, as if this motherly and loving smile could heal the pain in people's hearts: "I haven't been back to the village for a long time, and I can't remember it at all. Maybe you have grown up to be a handsome boy..."

"Thanks for the compliment."

Akihara Kagura nodded, with a strange smile on her face: "Dean Nono hasn't changed much, he's still as gentle as before..."

"Kagura-kun..."

Uchiha Itachi, who was standing nearby, felt that their atmosphere was a little strange, and he softly persuaded them, "We should leave, and it's time for Senior Yakushi Nono to leave, so as not to be noticed by the enemy..."

"Yes, this is enemy territory."

Pharmacist Nono nodded quickly, realizing that this was not the place to reminisce about the past, and said, "I have been away for too long, and I must reunite with my teammates here immediately, lest they doubt my identity!"

For Yakushi Nono, the most important thing now is her last mission, because rescuing Yakushi Kabuto from the root has been her inner demon for the past five years!

"Goodbye."

Akihara Kagura politely made way.

"goodbye!"

Yakushi Nono left quickly.

After Yakushi Nono left the alley, he remembered that he forgot to ask the name of the young man who came later. However, this was just a small matter of impoliteness. The most important thing was Yakushi Kabuto!

The last task is inside this green scroll!

Pharmacist Nono hurriedly found a safe place, opened the blue scroll, and saw a combat mission that was a little difficult for her.

March 3, night

[In Tuhe Gorge, assassinate a rebellious intelligence officer.]

Yakushi Nono saw a photo of the target to be assassinated printed on the scroll. The photo showed a young man wearing glasses whom she did not recognize.

"There should be no problem..."

"It looks like the target is not very old..."
