Chapter 268 Two Spies

Kabuto Yakushi saw Danzo's performance and cursed in his heart.

Danzo is the leader of Konoha's top management and the Root Organization. He can send out several ninja teams with a wave of his hand and let a jounin die in an unknown accident.

But after hearing Byakuya's name, Danzo no longer had the composure of the leader of the root organization.

There was obvious tension and uneasiness on his face, which made Kabuto Yakushi begin to wonder what Lord Byakuya had done to Danzo, which made Danzo uneasy when he heard Lord Byakuya's name.

At this time, Danzo also realized that his reaction was a bit too violent. No matter how much he feared Byakuya, he could not show nervousness in front of his subordinates.

What's more, it's hard to say whether the ninja who attacked Iwagakure was Byakuya or not.

The group of sinister and cunning muscular men in Yunyin Village are also good at kidnapping, framing and other strategies. Maybe they have taken a fancy to a certain bloodline in Yanyin Village and launched a special operation.

Not to mention anything else, Kumogakure jounin Troy was snatched away by Kumogakure when he was a child.

After several years of training, Troy successfully became Kumogakure's magnetic escape blood successor ninja, but eventually lost to the Fourth Kazekage and became a stepping stone on the Fourth Kazekage's path to fame.

Dispersing the distracting thoughts in his mind, Danzo looked at Yakushi Kabuto again and fell into deep thought.

Kabuto Yakushi is a child he values ​​in the orphanage. He has a very high task completion rate at a young age and has also achieved extremely excellent results in his training.

If you continue to cultivate at the root, you may become an elite Jonin in the future.

Looking at the entire Konoha, there are not many ninjas at the elite Jonin level. There are only a few dozen people. Apart from him, there are only two or three people at the root.

However, Kabuto Yakushi's mission this time was not considered a success. Kabuto Yakushi, who did not kill his relatives to prove his loyalty, would still be at risk of betraying him in the future.

If you can just find a task and deal with it now, you can avoid unnecessary risks.

After thinking for a long time, Danzo gave up the idea of ​​dealing with Kabuto Yakushi. After Tenzo, whom he had worked so hard to cultivate a few months ago, was taken away by Hiruzen Sarutobi, he no longer had many outstanding ninjas under his command.

Even if Yakushi Kabuto's loyalty is not absolute, Yakushi Kabuto has not betrayed his own strength.

After all, ninjas have to rely on their strength. After transplanting some Hashirama cells, his body function has stopped declining, and his strength is probably not far behind that of the still young Sannin.

Thinking of this, Danzo said: "Kabuto, since you brought back important information, I will not pursue the punishment for the failure of this mission. However, the death penalty can be avoided, but the punishment of living is inevitable."

"After you finish writing the mission report, you can report to the ninja school."

"Report to the Ninja School?" Kabuto Yakushi was stunned. He didn't understand what Danzo was thinking, and quickly said: "Danzo-sama, at my age, am I too young to serve in the Ninja School?"

Danzo glanced at Kabuto Yakushi and explained: "Instead of asking you to become a Ninja School teacher, I will make you a senior graduate of the Ninja School. After you graduate from the Ninja School, I will arrange a new task for you."

"In the meantime, you have to check for me if there are any good ideas in the Ninja School, and then report them to me."

Kabuto Yakushi nodded and accepted the task assigned by Danzo. He understood that Danzo had lost trust in him and wanted to use this method to distance himself from his roots.

However, this is not bad news for him.

After temporarily leaving his roots, he finally had time to study ninjutsu. Whether it was medical ninjutsu or other ninjutsu used in combat, he wanted to master them all.

When he has enough strength, he will be able to become Lord Byakuya's right-hand man.

When leaving the dark and damp roots and heading towards the sunny streets of Konoha, Kabuto Yakushi met a root ninja who was younger than him.

After the two looked at each other, they quickly passed by each other and walked to different places.

Even though the other party was wearing a mask, Yakushi Kabuto could still keenly guess the other party's identity. The other party was none other than the only Uchiha ninja in the root, Uchiha Itachi.

It's not like there are no ninjas younger than him.

But those ninjas who have not yet grown up do not have the aura of Uchiha Itachi at all, and their strength and methods are far inferior to this Uchiha genius.

He looked back at Uchiha Itachi and watched Uchiha Itachi walk into the root gate.

Kabuto Yakushi suddenly had a hunch in his heart that Uchiha was more suitable to stay at the root than him, and he was also more suitable for the spy profession.

But what does all this have to do with him?

After sighing softly, Kabuto Yakushi quickened his pace and disappeared into the forest.

…

As if aware of Yakushi Kabuto's gaze, Itachi turned around suddenly.

After seeing the swaying leaves and confirming that no one was peeping at him from behind, Itachi walked towards the depths of the root base with an uneasy mood.

In order to join the roots and become a member of the ANBU.

He received an extremely difficult task from Danzo to hunt down a jonin who betrayed the village. This jonin was a member of the ninja clan and his attainments in taijutsu had reached the level of an elite jounin.

If he hadn't deliberately sought out Shisui for help this time, he might have died in the process of hunting down the traitorous ninja.

But it's all worth it if you can get the roots added.

Although there is a communication bridge between the family and the village, Brother Zhisui, but if the family and the village want to understand each other, one communication bridge is not enough. There must be more communication channels.

After all, the high-level people in the village who oppose Uchiha are not only the Hokage, but also Shimura Danzo, the leader of the Root Organization.

Only by approaching Danzo and convincing Danzo with his own actions.

Only then can Danzo understand Uchiha and alleviate the conflicts between the family and the village. This is also his dream, so that the family and the village can understand each other and move towards peace.

Then there is mutual understanding between Ninja Village and Ninja Village, and finally world peace.

Itachi knew that his dreams were somewhat unrealistic, but he had to give everything a try. He could see further than the most stupid and arrogant Jonin, and he naturally had to shoulder more responsibilities.

Cross the cross patio and go to the end of the corridor.

Itachi Uchiha saw the flickering candlelight in the dim room, and also saw Danzo Shimura's captivating eyes.

After taking a deep breath, Uchiha Itachi knocked on the door.

At this time, an unhurried voice came from the room: "Itachi, you are finally here. How is it done this time?"

Uchiha Itachi walked into the room, knelt down on one knee and said, "Danzo-sama, are you lucky to have fulfilled your mission? I have completed the mission and solved the traitorous ninja."

Danzo glanced at Uchiha Itachi and said calmly:

"Oh? Really? Report the entire mission process to me."
