Just like the relationship between the Senju clan and the Uzumaki clan, the Hyuga clan and the Kaguya clan are also relatives, and the two clans even occasionally maintain Warring States aristocratic-style exchanges.

"Humph……"

Shimura Danzo always liked to disagree with Sarutobi Hiruzen's normal views: "The Kaguya clan will cause trouble sooner or later, so let me find a chance to get rid of them..."

"Danzo, you're taking this to an extreme."

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and continued: "Many things, if handled properly, can actually bring greater benefits to Konoha."

Sarutobi Hiruzen took out his pipe and exhaled a swirling cloud of smoke: "Did you talk to Itachi last time? Is he willing to help us intervene in the Uchiha clan's attitude towards Konoha?"

"We'll know when that little fellow returns from the Hidden Rock Village."

Shimura Danzo narrowed his eyes, satisfied with his assessment of Uchiha Itachi: "If he is willing to be our eyes and ears, the affairs of the Uchiha clan will be much easier to handle."

The land of earth.

The entire geographical environment is rocky and mountainous.

On the one hand, this geographical environment makes it difficult for the Iwagakure Village to communicate with the outside world; on the other hand, this geographical environment also greatly reduces the possibility of the Land of Earth being invaded.

The Iwagakure Village only needs to defend on narrow roads. Unless it invades from the coastline, it is difficult for other villages to attack the Land of Earth from land. There is even the risk of annihilation if they go deep enough.

The location of the Iwagakure Village is famous for its solid defense. It is surrounded by dense fortress rocks, making it extremely difficult to sneak in.

Other than that.

The number of ninjas in Iwagakure should be the largest among the five major ninja villages.

During the Third Shinobi World War, the Iwagakure Village fought on multiple fronts simultaneously. On the one hand, it dispatched troops to attack the Land of Fire and almost broke through the defense line of the Land of Fire; on the other hand, it dispatched tens of thousands of troops to besiege the ninja troops of the Kumogakure Village. If it weren't for the Third Raikage of the Kumogakure Village who risked his life to cover the retreat, the entire elite troops of the Kumogakure Village might have been wiped out.

same.

Most of the ninjas in the Iwagakure Village find it difficult to recognize the appearance of their own ninjas, and the ninjas need to carry out commissioned missions to make a living. Many Iwagakure ninjas will hardly have the chance to meet a companion they have met once again in their lifetime.

After Kabuto Yakushi sneaked into the Iwagakure Village, he has been trying every means to find Dean Yakushi Nonou who is also lurking in the village, hoping to meet with his own dean and tell him about the conspiracy from Danzo Shimura and Akihara Kagura who has been forgotten by the dean.

Unfortunately, the time is too short.

Yakushi Kabuto also doesn't know Yakushi Nono's code name.

In case Yakushi Nonou no longer lurks in the Iwagakure Village as a walking shrine maiden, if he rashly inquires about it, the identity of the dean might be exposed. In order to not expose his own identity, Yakushi Kabuto has to live as a normal ninja.

result……

The Iwagakure Village was hit by chaos again when Uchiha Obito controlled the Five-Tails Jinchuriki to assassinate the Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki. The entire Iwagakure Village was blocked for a week.

This made Yakushi Kabuto's actions even more difficult.

Fortunately, the blockade of Iwagakure Village was finally lifted.

Yakushi Kabuto was afraid of attracting attention, so he didn't dare to take any action. He could only continue to complete the commissioned tasks honestly in the Iwagakure Village.

Recently, Kabuto Yakushi has been carrying out escort missions in the border town of the Land of Earth, because he believes that Dean Nono Yakushi may appear here, and Konoha is very likely to ask them for information about the Iwagakure Village and Uchiha Obito.

as predicted.

Kabuto Yakushi discovered that the contact code left for him by the Konoha intelligence personnel appeared in the border town, so he had to rush over to meet them.

result……

Yakushi Kabuto met a black-haired boy at the meeting point.

"Uchiha Itachi..."

Pharmacist Kabuto felt a little relieved.

Fortunately, it was Uchiha Itachi who came at this time, not Akihara Kagura.

After Uchiha Itachi and Hatake Kakashi arrived in the Land of Earth, they were asked to find a place to stay first while they tried to contact the intelligence personnel of the Land of Earth.

Good luck.

There happens to be a spy here.

Kabuto Yakushi walked towards Uchiha Itachi as if nothing had happened. When he reached the little guy, he suddenly grabbed his body and dragged the boy into an alley!

"I'm Kabuto Yakushi, a member of the Intelligence Department."

With just one sentence, Kabuto Yakushi calmed Uchiha Itachi down.

"..."

When Uchiha Itachi heard the name of Kabuto Yakushi, he did not believe it directly. Instead, he seriously exchanged the secret code of Konoha Intelligence Department that belonged exclusively to Kabuto Yakushi.

"The connection was successful."

Uchiha Itachi's expression relaxed, and he asked, "I'm here to ask for the assistance of intelligence personnel to help us investigate the information about Uchiha Obito controlling the Five-Tails Jinchuriki. Do you have any information about Uchiha Obito's whereabouts?"

"I know something."

Yakushi Kabuto adjusted his glasses and said softly, "When the Five-Tails Jinchuriki was trying to assassinate the Third Tsuchikage Ohnoki, he was subdued on the spot by Ohnoki. Ohnoki discovered that the Five-Tails Jinchuriki was controlled by the Sharingan, and Uchiha Obito suddenly appeared..."

"The Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki tried to capture Uchiha Obito but failed. Uchiha Obito escaped and claimed that he would completely destroy the Iwagakure Village next time, which aroused Ōnoki's anger..."

"The entire Iwagakure Village has been sealed off for a week, and everyone is searching for Uchiha Obito's whereabouts. I haven't found out the results of this capture operation yet..."

"Maybe he caught it... maybe he didn't..."

"This is a secret known only to the top leaders of the Iwagakure Village. As a Genin, I can't find any specific information. You'd better give me a little more time."

"can."

Uchiha Itachi nodded.

This kind of thing is not an easy thing to find out.

Hearing that the person sent by his superior was willing to give him more time, Kabuto Yakushi felt a little relieved. As long as Konoha still needed his information, the crisis for himself and Dean Yakushi Nonou should be delayed for a while.

"correct."

Uchiha Itachi took out a red scroll and handed it to Kabuto Yakushi: "This is the latest mission given to you by Lord Danzo."

"I see."

Yakushi Kabuto reached out and took the red scroll. As if he remembered something, he suddenly asked, "By the way, I want to ask someone, how is Akihara Kagura doing in the Root? I remember that you and he were both candidates for the Chunin Exam. Did he pass the exam?"

"..."

Uchiha Itachi hesitated.

The members of this spy organization are too late in receiving information!

At this time, Uchiha Itachi didn't know whether he should say more. He knew that Kabuto Yakushi and Akihara Kagura had a close relationship, but once he said that Akihara Kagura was also there, if these two people had private contact, wouldn't it violate the rules of Konoha's Intelligence Department?

however……

Uchiha Itachi will soon not have to worry about this problem anymore.

"Yakushi Kabuto, your question is very rude."

Akihara Kagura quietly appeared beside Kabuto Yakushi and said nonchalantly, "The Uchiha Itachi standing in front of you will take over the position of Root leader from Lord Danzo in the future. Asking him about the Chunin Exam, isn't this poking at his scars?"

"Akihara Kagura!"

Yakushi Kabuto's expression suddenly turned panic-stricken.

Although I have always been concerned about Akihara Kagura's news, I absolutely don't want to see him here, especially at this time and place!

"Kagura-kun!"

Uchiha Itachi stood up and warned Akihara Kagura that he had violated Konoha's rules: "Unless you get permission, you are forbidden to contact the members of the Intelligence Department privately. Isn't this a violation of Konoha's regulations?"

Uchiha Itachi looked at the trembling Kabuto Yakushi and said softly, "Kabuto Yakushi, you can go now."

"Yes."

Pharmacist Kabuto wanted to leave immediately. He couldn't waste any more time here and had to find the dean as soon as possible!

Kabuto Yakushi knew that Kagura Akihara was lawless in the Root. He didn't think that Kagura Akihara would abide by any rules, nor did he think that Kagura Akihara would not dare to kill him and the dean!

but……

Pharmacist Kabuto was a little curious...

How could Uchiha Itachi become the successor of Shimura Danzo? Is Shimura Danzo going to die soon? What is the identity of Akihara Kagura?

"Don't leave in such a hurry..."

Akihara Kagura watched with interest as Yakushi Kabuto stopped and said with a smile, "Yakushi Kabuto, you should know what my presence here means, right?"

"I know……"

Yakushi Kabuto slowly lowered his head.

"That's good."

Akihara Kagura nodded with satisfaction and glanced at the red scroll in his hand: "It seems that you have a new mission, go and complete your mission first!"

"As for our business..."

"There's no need to rush for the moment."

Akihara Kagura looked at the somewhat uneasy Kabuto Yakushi with a playful smile in her eyes.

"..."

Drops of cold sweat slowly slid down Pharmacist Kabuto's forehead.

Akihara Kagura stared at Kabuto Yakushi, her smile growing more and more intense: "Now that I'm here, I have to meet the people I should meet, and I have to kill the people I should kill..."

"..."

Uchiha Itachi felt that things might not be as simple as he thought.

Is the relationship between Akihara Kagura and Kabuto Yakushi really as good as Hatake Kakashi said?

Why did Akihara Kagura speak with such sarcasm, and why was Kabuto Yakushi so scared when he saw Akihara Kagura appear here?

"Yakushi Kabuto, you go first."

Uchiha Itachi stopped in front of Akihara Kagura with a firm look and signaled Kabuto Yakushi to leave first.

"..."

Pharmacist Kabuto stood there, not daring to move.

Compared to Uchiha Itachi, Kabuto Yakushi was more worried about Akihara Kagura's attitude.

"Yakushi Kabuto, you can go now."

What Akihara Kagura said made Yakushi Kabuto feel like he had been pardoned.

Just as Yakushi Kabuto was about to leave, Akihara Kagura looked at Uchiha Itachi, as if talking to him: "Whether anyone can stop me from killing people in the future depends on your luck..."

Chapter 93: Three Scrolls, Three Missions, Three Spies

Kabuto Yakushi was finally able to leave.

After Pharmacist Kabuto escaped from the alley, he realized that his clothes were already soaked with sweat.

"We must return to the Iwagakure Village immediately!"

Yakushi Kabuto's face was extremely pale, almost without any blood color: "We can't wait any longer, we must find Dean Nono immediately!"

While Kabuto Yakushi was hurriedly preparing to rush back to the Iwagakure Village to continue looking for the dean, he opened the red scroll, wanting to see what task it assigned him.

March 3, night

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

This task was quite easy for Kabuto Yakushi.

Although Kabuto Yakushi himself is a medical ninja, he has been practicing hard while working as a spy, and his assassination methods are no less than those of the Anbu members.

however……

This task made Pharmacist Kabuto feel cold all over.

Normally, Kabuto Yakushi would not care about this kind of mission, but at this point in time, a fighter of Akihara Kagura's level appeared here, so why would he, a spy, need to take the risk of doing an assassination mission?

even……

Why is there a fixed time and place specifically written for this mission? Does it mean that the member who is being assassinated will definitely be there at that time?
