Starting as a working person from Naruto

Chapter 99 Eleven-year-old Akihara Kagura and nine-year-old Deidara

Konoha Village, Root Base.

Danzo Shimura sipped his tea leisurely.

Danzo Shimura was always very confident in his plans.

Especially when plotting against certain Konoha ninjas, Danzo Shimura believed that everything was under his control because he knew these people very well.

"By having Itachi contact the intelligence department, he will inevitably come into contact with Kabuto and Nonou, and learn that they are comrades from the village..."

"In that case..."

"When Nono Yakushi and Kabuto Yakushi appear in the Tsuchi River Canyon and start fighting each other, Itachi Uchiha, who is in charge of cleaning up the mess, will discover the truth about the assessment mission..."

"These two companions he had only met recently were the targets he had to kill during the assessment mission, which awakened in him the determination and darkness to kill his companions."

"What we need is for Itachi Uchiha to become an internal spy planted within the Uchiha clan by the higher-ups, so that he can pass on the Uchiha clan's secrets to them in the future..."

"Now, let Itachi Uchiha understand that he can do anything for the sake of Konoha, even if it means killing a comrade he's just met. In the future, when he's asked to betray the Uchiha clan for Konoha's sake, this little guy will gradually get used to it..."

"just."

"It can also eliminate two potential threats: Kabuto Yakushi and Nonou Yakushi."

For Danzo Shimura, the key to this assessment mission was to change Itachi Uchiha's mindset, gradually leading Itachi to willingly walk down the dark path and become a spy planted by the Konoha leadership within the Uchiha clan to betray information about the Uchiha clan.

As for Kabuto and Nono, these two tools have already started to cause trouble, so it's a good opportunity to get rid of them. Before I die, I'll let these two tools play a little more role in awakening the darkness in Itachi's heart.

Inside Iwagakure Village.

Kakashi Hatake didn't have time to warn Kabuto Yakushi.

However, Kakashi Hatake believed that as a spy, Kabuto Yakushi would certainly be able to think things through thoroughly and might not be unaware that Danzo Shimura was the real source of danger.

As for Kakashi Hatake himself, he needs to find a way to continue searching for the location of the Five-Tails Jinchuriki. Where in Iwagakure is the Five-Tails Jinchuriki being imprisoned?

Outside Iwahiku Village.

A blond boy is playing in the mud.

This blond boy is named Deidara. He is a disciple of Onoki, the Third Tsuchikage of Iwagakure. He has possessed extraordinary Earth Release talent since childhood and has even mastered the Explosion Release technique.

However, it was precisely because of this that Deidara had a fondness for creating explosions since childhood, and would occasionally blow up Iwagakure with tremendous force, forcing the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, to finally lose his patience and throw him out of Iwagakure to live alone.

A man wearing red armor stood next to Deidara.

The man in the red armor is Han, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki of Iwagakure.

To prevent the Five-Tails from causing chaos in Iwagakure and to avoid exposing him to the villagers' hatred, the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, decided to have him live outside the village. Because the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, understood Han's introverted personality, he decided to have him come to Deidara's place, hoping it would help this impulsive kid become a little more composed.

of course.

Essential surveillance and protection are indispensable.

A group of ninjas dressed in Iwagakure ANBU uniforms were hiding in the shadows, monitoring the area. The Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, had ordered them to stay here, both to monitor and protect Han, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, and to see if they could lure out Obito Uchiha.

As for whether Deidara will encounter danger...

This brat has been the greatest danger to Iwagakure since he was a child!

"Art is an explosion! Ha!"

With a sharp shout from the blond boy, a violent explosion shook the heavens and the earth. A huge rock was instantly blasted apart, and the flames from the explosion were so intense that people involuntarily closed their eyes!

A group of ANBU members from Iwagakure had prepared earplugs in advance, fearing that they might go deaf from hearing too many explosions during their missions...

"Han, what do you think of my art?"

Deidara looked at Han, who was wearing red armor, with a smug expression.

"good."

The man simply nodded sullenly.

"Please give me a few more compliments..."

Deidara's face immediately fell. This was a work of art that he had worked so hard to complete, how could it only be worth a "not bad" in return?

"It's really good."

The man's attitude remained sullen.

"You're so boring..."

Deidara shrugged and continued tinkering on his own: "The power isn't enough. I need to add some more explosive clay so it can blow up the old man's clay shadow tower in the future!"

"..."

The man seemed not to have heard anything, but simply turned his head slightly to look in another direction, where he saw a boy holding a little red-haired girl's hand.

"What's wrong?"

Deidara turned his head and followed the man's gaze to the boy, unable to resist asking with some curiosity, "Are you from the village?"

"Absolutely not."

The man shook his head firmly.

The people in the village could not possibly give him a dangerous aura. Even Obito Uchiha, who controlled him a few days ago, could not make him feel this kind of unease!

Hello everyone!

Akihara Kagura, holding Karin's hand, walked over and introduced herself with a smile, "We've come to the Land of Earth to help with afforestation..."

Akihara Kagura didn't actually appear that happy.

Kakashi Hatake himself didn't know what he was doing. How could such a big Five-Tails Jinchuriki, who lived just outside Iwagakure, have infiltrated the village?

"What tree planting and afforestation..."

Deidara looked at him with surprise and asked curiously, "Aren't you from the Land of Earth? Where did you come from?"

"No, we are from the Land of Fire."

Akihara Kagura didn't shy away from her origins, smiling as she continued, "We usually travel around the ninja world, helping people plant trees and beautify the environment. Doesn't this place need that? It's all bare rocks everywhere; wouldn't it be better to plant more trees?"

"Are there still such professions in the ninja world?"

Deidara felt he had learned something rather strange today, and looking around, he said, "There are only rocks here, how can we plant trees?"

"Very soon."

Akihara Kagura slowly closed her palms and said softly, "Would you like to see what methods we used for planting trees..."

"You demonstrate..."

Deidara nodded his little head.

"Wood Release: Advent of the Tree World!"

Suddenly, tree roots and vines sprouted from the entire area. The rocks could not stop the spread of the roots and vines, and the area was quickly transformed into an ancient forest. However, although many of the trees in the forest were thick, they were all growing crookedly.

"Be careful!"

The ever-vigilant and silent Five-Tails Jinchuriki, Han, swiftly grabbed Deidara's shoulder, pulling the blond-haired boy forward in an attempt to retreat. However, they couldn't escape the area of ​​the Advent of the Tree World and could only stop a short distance away, watching the boy who used Wood Release and the little girl beside him!

"I'm fine!"

Deidara didn't react immediately, still seriously considering the method of planting trees: "If we plant trees this way..."

"This is Wood Release."

Han, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, reminded the Third Tsuchikage's junior disciple and continued, "A message came from the Land of Water that the Mizukage was captured by a Wood Release ninja."

"The Mizukage has been captured?"

"Another Wood Release bloodline limit holder?"

News of Deidara was severely delayed.

Since Deidara moved outside the village, his sources of information have all come from Kurotsuchi and Akatsuchi, who come to play with him. Kurotsuchi is basically just a little kid, and Akatsuchi is also quite young and not very bright, so naturally he can't provide him with any information.

"Where are the people from the Dark Guard?"

Han, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, did not answer Deidara's question. Instead, he tried to find the figure of the Iwagakure ANBU ninja in the forest, knowing that the ANBU must be nearby.

Are you looking for them?

Akihara Kagura pointed to a giant tree in the forest.

A group of people were hanging from this tree, and more and more people were being hung there. These people, who were bound by vines, were all wearing the uniforms of the Iwagakure ANBU.

The group of Iwagakure ANBU had already reacted and tried to jump out to attack Akihara Kagura, but they were all caught by the vines.

"Protect yourself, I'm going to catch him."

Han, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, gave an order to Deidara, and his red armor suddenly activated, releasing a burst of steam!

Using the acceleration of the steam, Han rushed toward Akihara Kagura at high speed, breaking all the vines that tried to block his way with his monstrous strength!

however…

Human strength has its limits!

Han's superhuman strength was ultimately stopped by the vines!

A bunch of vines bound him to his body, immobilizing him in place, and the vines began to rapidly drain his chakra!

"Go! Go! Go…"

Deidara quickly spread out his palms, and tiny clay spiders crawled through the forest, sticking to the vines binding the Five-Tails Jinchuriki!

Boom!

An explosion was heard.

The vines were all snapped in two by the explosion of the spider clay!

"Lord Kagura, be careful."

Karin spoke up from the side, because she could already sense more clay spiders crawling towards them!

"A clay bomb, huh..."

Akihara Kagura couldn't help but glance at Deidara.

Since most of Akihara Kagura's Wood Release techniques are powerful and involve large-scale attacks, it was really difficult to deal with these small clay spiders crawling towards him through the cracks.

Besides the tiny clay spiders, there was also Han, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki who had broken free of his restraints. His red armor was constantly steaming as he charged toward Akihara Kagura!

"Don't worry."

Akihara Kagura remained calm as he placed his hand on Karin's body, and the two of them vanished from their spot in an instant!

This entire forest is formed from his chakra!

All the vines in the forest are manipulated by his chakra. Wherever his chakra touches, it can instantly leave his Flying Thunder God mark. As long as Akihara Kagura is in this forest, she can move however she wants!

"That is..."

Han, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, suddenly turned pale!

The speed at which that little guy disappeared reminded him of someone who had once caused pain to the Iwagakure ninja, and who had even single-handedly destroyed the village's elite forces!

The last person to use this technique was Minato Namikaze!

"This is bad..."

Han, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, remembered the village's warning and quickly turned around and rushed back, hoping to catch Deidara in time and escape back to Iwagakure!

however…

He's too slow!

Akihara Kagura's figure quietly appeared behind Deidara, reached out and grabbed Deidara's neck, pinning the blond boy who was trying to resist to the ground!

"You... pfft... guy..."

Deidara struggled to twist his body on the ground, trying to get up, but vines bound him to the ground!

Akihara Kagura slowly stood up and looked at the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, Han, who was charging towards her: "Why aren't you using the power of the Tailed Beast? Is the Tailed Beast inside you afraid?"

As Akihara Kagura spoke, she held up her finger.

The trees seemed to come alive, their roots and vines spreading throughout the forest, encircling the man in red armor.

"..."

Han, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, had no choice but to stop.

A white tail suddenly emerged from behind him!

"Flying Thunder God Technique..."

"And the power of Wood Release bloodline limit..."

After Han, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, used the Tailed Beast's chakra, he could feel his power increase further, but he still felt that he was at a disadvantage.

Defeating a Wood Release ninja is very difficult!

It's even harder to escape from a Flying Thunder God user!

The armor on Han, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, started up with a rumble, making a whirring sound like the engine of a small train, and steam suddenly shot out from the armor!

Using the immense thrust of the steam burst, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki charged toward Akihara Kagura, smashing through countless vines and tree roots in his path!

finally…

The sullen man was still forced to stop in front of Akihara Kagura!

Vines coalesced and tightly wrapped around his waist, restraining his body, while rapidly drawing away his chakra!

The tail behind Han, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, quietly disappeared, and his body gradually slumped down, his hands hanging limply.

"Don't touch him."

Deidara's voice suddenly came over.

The blond boy lay prone on the ground, a sinister murderous intent on his face: "If you don't release us, I'll kill this red-haired brat!"

"..."

Little Phosphorus stood trembling under a tree.

Because of a clay spider on her head, Deidara released the clay spider at some point and even used it to control Karin.

"I know your teleportation technique is very fast..."

A weak smile appeared on Deidara's face as he forced a weak voice, "But... let's make a bet: will I make it explode first, or will you be able to save people first?"

"How old are you this year?"

Akihara Kagura asked a strange question.

"I'm nine years old..."

Deidara responded instinctively.

"She's already nine years old..."

Akihara Kagura looked at Deidara with a hint of realization, then a look of disdain appeared in her eyes: "So, do you think it's going too far for you to bully a six or seven-year-old child?"

"I…"

Deidara's momentum faltered for a moment, then he quickly realized what was happening and retorted, "You look over ten years old, weren't you bullying me just now?"

In an instant!

While Deidara was distracted, Akihara Kagura disappeared from her spot and appeared next to Karin, reaching out to grab the clay spider from Karin's head!

You've been tricked!

A hint of joy flashed in Deidara's eyes!

Because his initial target wasn't Karin, but Akihara Kagura who wanted to save people, what good would bullying a child do?

Deidara even deliberately set a verbal trap during their conversation, enticing Akihara Kagura to choose to save people before the clay exploded!

In fact, besides saving people, there was another option to prevent the clay explosion from harming Karin: to instantly kill Deidara, the one controlling the clay bomb!

Just as Deidara was about to activate the clay spider to explode with a look of joy, Akihara Kagura appeared in front of Deidara the instant she caught the clay spider!

"You bastard..."

Deidara scoffed and continued nonchalantly, "Do you think I'm afraid to die together with you?"

"No, look..."

Kagura Akihara shook her head, deliberately squatted down, and placed the small clay spider in front of Deidara. With just one sentence, she broke Deidara's defenses.

"This spider is so ugly..."

"I'll fight you to the death!"

Second update!

Deidara is so much fun...
