"Dean, this is not your mistake."

Kabuto Yakushi was still conscientiously comforting his dean.

No matter which way you look at it, this matter is not the dean's fault.

Because Orochimaru kidnapped Akihara Kagura, and because Shimura Danzo deliberately concealed the fact that Akihara Kagura was still alive, they thought Akihara Kagura was dead, and slowly forgot about this child who was born in an orphanage, making this child mistakenly

Thinking they had abandoned him.

"But…"

"That child..."

Pharmacist Nonoyu pressed her chest, heartache and guilt blocked her heart. The pain made her brain go blank and she could hardly speak.

Yakushi Nonou recalled that when he saw Akihara Kagura, not only did he not recognize the child, he didn't even remember the name, and even stabbed him with a kunai... but the child still smiled and comforted her that it didn't matter.

"How could I forget my child..."

Pharmacist Nonoyu has always raised the children adopted from the orphanage as her own children. She remembers every child's name and every child's story.

Only…

Forgot Akihara Kagura.

Whether it was due to Danzo Shimura or Orochimaru, this was not the reason for her to forget her child, even if she thought the child was dead...

Even Kabuto Yakushi remembered...

Even Kabuto Yakushi thought of Akihara Kagura.

How could he, the director of an orphanage, forget his own child?

"Dean!"

Yakushi Kabuto shook Yakushi Nonou's shoulders, first shaking his dean to wake up, and said in a deep voice: "Now is not the time to talk about this, our crisis has not been resolved yet!"

"Kagura hates that we have forgotten him. He and Danzo Shimura have teamed up to set up a conspiracy to make us kill each other. He is in the Kingdom of Earth and will definitely not let us go!"

While talking, Kabuto Yakushi looked around and continued: "Kagura may be here soon, or even already nearby. We must leave immediately..."

"..."

In a rock crevice.

Uchiha Itachi has been hiding here, thinking about everything that happened here, he slowly closed his eyes, this young man knew his real assessment mission.

Shimura Danzo wanted him to kill the two members of the intelligence department who were about to defect, namely Yakushi Kabuto and Yakushi Nonou...

He personally delivered the two fratricidal task scrolls to Yakushi Kabuto and Yakushi Nonou. His assessment task was to put an end to this conspiracy and tragedy.

Akihara Kagura…

Why does it appear every time I deliver information?

If, as Kabuto Yakushi said, Akihara Kagura hated them for forgetting him, so he conspired with Shimura Danzo to kill them, was Akihara Kagura actually showing up when they were delivering information to monitor his assessment tasks?

?

If, as Kakashi Hatake said, the purpose of Akihara Kagura is to get them to leave their roots, but why should they leave their roots?

Uchiha Itachi couldn't understand.

Maybe he doesn't need to think about these things at all.

Uchiha Itachi thought back to the moment when he and Akihara Kagura parted ways.

Regardless of whether Akihara Kagura is here to monitor him or not, Uchiha Itachi knows that he has no other choice for a long time. What he has to do now is to go on firmly!

Even if...

Kill these two companions!

For the mission, for Konoha, no matter what the cost!

Danzo Shimura, a high-ranking Konoha executive, wants to clear out these two members of the intelligence department who are about to defect. This is an order from his superiors. This is a necessary sacrifice!

A cat face mask is in his hand.

Uchiha Itachi slowly stretched out his hand and put on the cat-face mask, hiding his true face under the mask, just like other root ninjas who performed missions.

The two shurikens flew towards Yakushi Kabuto and Yakushi Nonou!

"There are enemies!"

This sound instantly attracted Yakushi Kabuto's attention. He quickly grabbed Yakushi Nonou and hid behind a rock!

However…

To no avail!

Ding dong!

The sound of the shurikens colliding is crisp!

Uchiha Itachi raised his hand and threw out two shurikens again, hitting the two shurikens in front and changing their direction!

Four shurikens flew towards the two people behind the rock!

Uchiha Itachi's shuriken throwing skills are superb. Except for Uchiha Shisui who has been teaching him, there is no one in Konoha or even the ninja world who is better than him!

"What?"

Kabuto Yakushi looked at the four flying shurikens in surprise!

Even though Kabuto Yakushi has been on espionage missions for so many years and has seen so many ninjas, he is still a little surprised by the opponent's attack beyond the blind spot of his vision!

This is not over at all!

Uchiha Itachi quickly joined his hands to form a seal!

"Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu!"

This is a technique specially taught to Uchiha Itachi as a reward given to him by the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi after he returned from his mission in the Kirigakure Village!

A dense group of shurikens flew down towards the place where Yakushi Kabuto and Yakushi Nonou were hiding!

"Walk!"

Yakushi Kabuto pushed Yakushi Nonou past, and raised a ball of green chakra scalpel in his hand, trying to block these incoming shurikens as much as possible!

However…

There is nothing we can do after all!

Yakushi Kabuto could only avoid the vital points as much as possible. In order to protect Yakushi Nonou, he was hit by a shuriken in his arm, shoulder and leg respectively!

Yakushi Nonou was also hit with a shuriken on his shoulder!

"pocket!"

Regardless of his own injuries, Yakushi Nonoyu quickly formed a ball of chakra in his palm, and carefully placed it on Yakushi Kabuto's wound, helping him heal the injury.

"That's too late…"

Kabuto Yakushi shook his head slowly and sighed in his heart. He slowly stood up from behind the rock, looked at the masked young man in the distance, and asked loudly: "Akihara Kagura, are you even the dean?"

Are you unwilling to let it go?"

"..."

Uchiha Itachi didn't respond.

As a ninja walking in the dark, you don't need to talk too much when performing tasks, and you can't even reveal your identity.

Uchiha Itachi calmly drew out his ninja sword and ran towards Yakushi Kabuto and Yakushi Nonou. Now he only had the mission goal in his mind!

"This guy...is he like this when he kills people?"

Kabuto Yakushi had never seen Akihara Kagura kill someone, but he knew that Akihara Kagura would never show mercy when killing people, because that guy's character has always been extreme!

Kabuto Yakushi could only push the dean away, and faced the masked boy rushing towards him with a green chakra scalpel on his palm!

The two of them instantly fought together!

"Your swordsmanship is really excellent..."

Kabuto Yakushi and Uchiha Itachi had only been fighting for a few rounds. Since there were still unhealed wounds on his body, he was cut quickly. He could only try his best to avoid the vital points!

"..."

Uchiha Itachi still didn't answer.

This masked boy just waved his ninja sword with firm eyes!

Taking advantage of Kabuto Yakushi's damaged defense, Uchiha Itachi slashed Kabuto Yakushi's arm with a clean cut, leaving a long wound on his arm!

"This guy…"

Kabuto Yakushi looked at the long wound on his arm, and he vaguely regretted that he had not practiced swordsmanship properly. The chakra scalpel was too easy to be restrained when faced with a swordsman master!

"pocket…"

Pharmacist Nonoyu quickly wanted to rush over.
