That child...

Could it be that he really is a child from Konoha Orphanage, who just ran away and happened to be caught by me when I defected from Konoha?

Orochimaru remembered that Akihara Kagura had mentioned to him that Kabuto Yakushi already thought he was a child from an orphanage, and that Danzo Shimura had done a good job in helping him deal with the matter.

What exactly is going on?

Could it be that because the child was born in Konoha Orphanage, when I suggested that he return to Konoha to meet Danzo, the child wanted to rescue Nono and Kabuto, so I agreed to it?

That child...

Have you been pretending all along?

All this is to rescue Kabuto Yakushi and Nono Yakushi?

According to Orochimaru's speculation, this possibility is more likely, because if Akihara Kagura really followed the identity arranged by Danzo, what he should have done was to kill Kabuto Yakushi and Nono Yakushi to avoid revealing any identity flaws, instead of saving these two people.

You can't...

Because you mentioned that you wanted to use Kabuto Yakushi, right?

Orochimaru's heart trembled, and he immediately felt that this possibility was not small. Akihara Kagura was a child with an extreme personality. She would definitely obey his orders even at the cost of her life.

I had just casually said that Hashirama's cell transplantation experiments on humans always failed, and that child had volunteered to be a test subject, and had carried out my orders too extreme...

Forget it.

I'll ask Kagura about this later.

In any case, this matter is beneficial to Orochimaru now.

Because Akihara Kagura is very talented, her identity will definitely be taken seriously by Konoha. Only an identity as a Konoha-born person can make Akihara Kagura gain more trust in Konoha.

The most important thing now is to bring Kabuto Yakushi and Nono Yakushi to his experimental base first, lest these two medical ninjas really return to Konoha...

Of course.

Given that Orochimaru once kidnapped Akihara Kagura, Kabuto and Nono Yakushi hated Orochimaru very much, but were also afraid of his power.

however……

As Akihara Kagura's boss, Orochimaru was well versed in manipulating people's hearts. He only used two things to force these two people to join him.

"I can help you solve Shimura Danzo's troubles."

Orochimaru looked at Kabuto and Nono with a sinister smile, and proposed a condition that they could not refuse: "As long as I am willing to come forward, Shimura Danzo will not hunt you down anymore, and will not even cause trouble for Kagura because she saved you."

"..."

Yakushi Nono remained silent, not knowing how to answer.

Because this matter really made her very excited, but she knew that Orochimaru was an extremely dangerous person, and joining Orochimaru would undoubtedly be like escaping from a wolf's den and entering a tiger's den.

Yakushi Kabuto was more thoughtful. He thought for a while and asked his own question: "If we join you and become Konoha's rebel ninjas, will it cause trouble for Kagura?"

"Not only that, it can even help Kagura."

Orochimaru's smile widened, and he chuckled as he continued, "That child has always been my experimental subject. I have never been willing to let him leave my side. It was only because I needed information about Konoha that I sent that child back to Konoha to be my spy."

When Orochimaru said this, his eyes narrowed slightly: "This is a dangerous job, but I mentioned the dangers you two might encounter, and mentioned that Shimura Danzo had ordered me to deal with you, and that child went without hesitation..."

"We agreed."

Yakushi Kabuto adjusted his glasses and said softly, "Anyway, we have no ability to resist Lord Orochimaru, so accepting is the best option for us, isn't it? When can we return to Konoha, and when can we see Kagura again?"

"..."

Pharmacist Nono frowned.

Originally, Yakushi Nono thought that Akihara Kagura had a hard enough life, but she didn't expect that the child had a harder life than she imagined, and even had to deal with Orochimaru.

Orochimaru is Konoha's S-rank rebel ninja...

Once discovered, the child's life will be over!

"Wait until I contact Danzo again!"

Orochimaru spread his hands and said with a smile: "Welcome to visit my base. It's a good opportunity to see the environment where Kagura grew up..."

"..."

The hearts of Kabuto Yakushi and Nono Yakushi trembled.

Because the Akihara Kagura mentioned by Orochimaru actually lived a more miserable life.

"As expected of Lord Orochimaru..."

When Akihara Kagura used the [Darkness of the Ninja World] to observe Orochimaru recruiting Kabuto and Nono, she couldn't help but praise Orochimaru in her heart.

This boss's ability to manipulate people's hearts is about to catch up with him!

If Orochimaru is willing to help, he can indeed help him solve the trouble of Shimura Danzo. The only problem is that his boss Shimura Danzo may not like him.

but……

It doesn't matter.

As long as I can resolve my identity crisis first, it will be fine.

Akihara Kagura was slowly leading Hatake Kakashi and others on the road, while waiting for Uchiha Itachi to report what had happened to Danzo Shimura.

This is the reason why Uchiha Itachi was able to survive!

As long as Uchiha Itachi goes to report what happened this time, and reports the relationship between Akihara Kagura, Kabuto Yakushi, and Nono Yakushi, Shimura Danzo will know one thing...

"Akihara Kagura is a child from an orphanage!"

After hearing Uchiha Itachi's report, Shimura Danzo flew into a rage and immediately felt that he had been tricked by Akihara Kagura: "That bastard has been using me all along. He has been using me ever since he entered the Root!"

No wonder that child has always been obedient to me!

No wonder that kid always beats and scolds the people at the root!

Because that child is from Konoha Orphanage. The purpose of that child coming to the Root is not to become my tool, but to take the opportunity to let Kabuto Yakushi and Nono Yakushi leave the Root. That child has been disguising himself all along!

"Does he think I can't do anything to him?"

Danzo Shimura took his cane and wanted to go see Sarutobi Hiruzen, but he quickly calmed down because he knew that he could not expose the fact that he was still colluding with Orochimaru in secret.

Orochimaru is still useful to him!

Danzo Shimura's face was filled with anger, but he could only suppress his rage. Perhaps the only thing he could do was to blame Orochimaru for not telling him everything about Akihara Kagura!

although……

This was something Danzo Shimura was too lazy to ask.

Who would have thought that a tool used to kill people could hide such deep thoughts and even such profound plots!

Perhaps that child has been trying to attract Sarutobi Hiruzen's attention and tried every means to become Sarutobi Hiruzen's Wood Release genius, with the purpose of letting Sarutobi Hiruzen help him get Kabuto and Nono Yakushi away from the Root!

"I failed my assessment mission."

Uchiha Itachi respectfully reported all the news he had heard, then slowly lowered his head and said: "I hope that Master Danzo can give me another chance..."

"..."

Shimura Danzo gripped his cane tightly.

At this time, Danzo Shimura quickly came to his senses. In fact, it was not that Uchiha Itachi, the child, could not do without the Konoha high-level officials, but that the Konoha high-level officials could not do without Uchiha Itachi, the spy.

"Your assessment is not for killing."

Shimura Danzo narrowed his eyes and continued slowly: "Your assessment is to test whether you can withstand the will of darkness. When you are willing to resolve the possible crisis at all costs for the safety of Konoha, you have passed the assessment."

"..."

Uchiha Itachi looked up in disbelief.

"From today on, you will be directly under my command."

Shimura Danzo looked down at Uchiha Itachi and announced, "Whether Konoha and the Uchiha clan can move towards a peaceful future, from today on, it will be up to you, Itachi."

"Yes, Lord Danzo!"

Itachi Uchiha's heart began beating again.

Originally, Uchiha Itachi thought that he had failed the assessment and that the communication channels between Konoha's high-level officials and the Uchiha clan would be cut off, but he did not expect that Shimura Danzo still chose to accept him.

As long as Danzo Shimura accepts him, he can use the information from Konoha's high-level officials to influence Uchiha's judgment, and he can use the information about the Uchiha clan to influence Konoha's high-level officials' attitude towards Uchiha!

This is Uchiha Itachi’s real spy plan!

Although this step is difficult, for the peace of the village and the family, this is what a Konoha ninja and a member of the Uchiha clan must do!

"Anbu..."

Uchiha Itachi asked his own question.

Because of the conflict between him and Akihara Kagura, once he returns to Anbu, who knows how much trouble will arise between him and Akihara Kagura.

"No need to go back to the Anbu."

Shimura Danzo shook his head and suddenly called out two names.

"B, C."

Two masked Root ninjas jumped out from the darkness and knelt on one knee respectfully in front of Shimura Danzo.

Shimura Danzo looked at Uchiha Itachi and said, "From today on, you two are Itachi's subordinates. Your team is responsible for monitoring the actions of the Uchiha clan."

"Yes."

Uchiha Itachi and the two Root ninjas lowered their heads.

"try hard."

Shimura Danzo looked down at Uchiha Itachi, looking into his eyes almost greedily: "Don't let me down, Itachi."

"Yes, Lord Danzo."

Uchiha Itachi lowered his head and dared not raise it.

At this moment, Uchiha Itachi knew that his plan was successful.

"By the way, you just said that they brought back the Third Tsuchikage?"

Shimura Danzo asked with narrowed eyes, and without waiting for Uchiha Itachi to answer, he snorted coldly: "The Third Tsuchikage, the Two Heavenly Scales Ōnoki..."

Compared to the Fourth Mizukage, Karutagi Yagura, the Third Tsuchikage, Ōnoki, must have more secrets. Controlling Ōnoki is almost equivalent to controlling the intelligence of the entire Iwagakure Village.

Even though Shimura Danzo knew that Sarutobi Hiruzen would never hand over the Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki to him, he couldn't help but feel a little excited when he thought about the information about the entire Iwagakure Village...

"I want to go out."

Shimura Danzo tapped his cane hard and ordered, "Gather all the people in the Root Class. I'm going to meet Ōnoki and that brat!"

I have to ask myself clearly...

Is that little kid really a child from an orphanage?

I have to ask it myself...

Has that little brat been playing tricks on me all along?

If all this is true, I must get rid of that brat even at the cost of an eye, and by the way, get the Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki into my hands in advance!

Outside Konoha Village.

Akihara Kagura took the initiative to offer her opinion.

"I would like to hand over Lord Tsuchikage to Lord Danzo."

Akihara Kagura frowned with a hint of worry: "If Lord Danzo knew that I had been following his orders just to rescue Kabuto and the dean, he would definitely be very angry with me. At least giving him Lord Tsuchikage will let him know my loyalty..."

"Kid."

The Third Tsuchikage Ohnoki was so angry that he almost gritted his teeth and said, "Do you want to use me as a gift to that despicable Danzo?"

"..."

Hatake Kakashi's forehead twitched, and he quickly comforted the old man: "Lord Tsuchikage, please calm down a little. Lord Hokage will not let this happen."

After that, Hatake Kakashi pulled Akihara Kagura over and took the initiative to advise: "Even if you hand over the Tsuchikage to Shimura Danzo, he will never forgive you for rescuing Dean Nono and Kabuto..."

Akihara Kagura glanced at Hatake Kakashi and mentioned his old story again: "This is the critical moment for Uchiha Itachi and I to compete for the future leader of the Root..."

"but……"
