Chapter 972: Chance
It won't hurt to wait a little longer, Kabuto thought silently. He continued to collect intelligence in secret, but on the surface he remained loyal to the forces that controlled his fate.
By chance, Kabuto sneaked into Danzo's secret base. There he found some clues about his adoptive mother Nono, as well as Danzo's conspiracy against other ninjas. Kabuto's heart was in turmoil, but he quickly calmed down. He knew that it was not wise to expose his knowledge of these secrets at this time.
So, Kabuto quietly left the base and quietly destroyed all traces of his entry. After that, he waited for the right time to expose all this and avenge his adoptive mother while maneuvering between various forces. He began to secretly cultivate his own power, using an extremely covert method to win over those ninjas who were dissatisfied with the status quo or marginalized. And all this was quietly unfolding in the seemingly peaceful underground of Konoha Village. No one noticed that Kabuto was weaving a huge net that was about to change the entire situation.
However, Kabuto's actions still caused some ripples. A ninja he recruited accidentally revealed his true identity. Although the ninja quickly disappeared, the suspicious Danzo still noticed something strange. Danzo sent out the Anbu to investigate, and vaguely pointed the target at Kabuto.
Kabuto sensed the danger approaching, so he sped up his preparations. He used his advantage of being able to move around to cleverly shift some of the suspicion to other forces. At the same time, he decided to take the risk of leaking some information to Orochimaru, hoping to use Orochimaru's influence to buy himself more time.
After hearing this, Orochimaru raised a playful smile. He neither expressed support nor opposition, but just said to Kabuto: "Don't die too early, my little chess piece." But secretly, Orochimaru intentionally or unintentionally revealed some confusing news on certain occasions, making Danzo's pursuit even more confusing. Kabuto understood that this was Orochimaru's unique statement. He seized the last time to perfect his layout, and when the right time came, he would reveal all the truth in one fell swoop. Finally, Kabuto thought the time was ripe. He first released a smoke bomb, suggesting that Danzo's conspiracy would endanger the foundation of Konoha Village. The top leaders of Konoha were shocked and began to investigate Danzo. Danzo was busy dealing with internal pressure and relaxed his surveillance on Kabuto. Kabuto took the opportunity to contact the ninjas he had won over, and everyone gathered together. Kabuto stood in the front, and his eyes firmly told about Danzo's various evil deeds and the injustice of his adoptive mother. The ninjas were indignant and expressed their willingness to follow Kabuto to reveal the truth. Just as they were about to reveal these secrets, Orochimaru suddenly appeared. He brought a mysterious document. It turned out that Orochimaru had been secretly investigating Danzo, and this document contained more solid evidence. With the help of Orochimaru, Kabuto was even more powerful. They broke into Konoha's meeting hall directly and revealed Danzo's conspiracy in front of many Konoha high-level officials. Danzo tried to quibble, but the evidence was solid. In the end, Danzo was deprived of power and received the punishment he deserved. Kabuto successfully avenged his adoptive mother, and he looked at Orochimaru with gratitude. Orochimaru patted Kabuto on the shoulder and said, "From this moment on, you are no longer a chess piece, but a chess player." Kabuto felt the recognition in Orochimaru's words, and a complex emotion surged in his heart. He knew that from now on he would embark on a brand new path.
After that, Kabuto began to re-examine his relationship with various forces. He was no longer limited to the affairs of Otogakure or Konohagakure, but looked at the entire ninja world. With the connections and experience he had accumulated before, he formed a special ninja team, whose members were all ninjas with unique abilities who were ignored by major ninja villages.
Occasionally, Orochimaru would come to Kabuto to discuss his ninjutsu experience or share some little-known ninja secrets with him. During one exchange, Orochimaru mentioned an ancient ruin, which was said to contain a treasure that could overturn the balance of power in the ninja world. Kabuto was moved, and he took his team on a journey to explore the ruins. Along the way, they encountered various traps and attacks from other treasure hunters, but with Kabuto's wisdom and the strength of his teammates, they escaped danger again and again. When they finally found the treasure, Kabuto hesitated, thinking about the turmoil that this treasure would bring to the ninja world once it appeared in the world. In the end, Kabuto decided to seal the treasure again. He didn't want to cause a war in the ninja world because of a momentary desire. Kabuto's actions were respected and understood by his teammates. After this incident, Kabuto became famous in the ninja world, and many people admired his character of not being moved by interests.
One day, Kabuto received an anonymous letter, telling him a shocking news: a forbidden technique is about to reappear in the ninja world, and if it is not stopped, countless innocent lives will disappear. Kabuto realized the seriousness of the matter and immediately called the team together to discuss countermeasures.
They followed the clues provided in the letter and found that it was actually a group of defected ninjas who attempted to rule the ninja world through forbidden techniques.
Kabuto led his team to fight the defecting ninja. The battle was extremely fierce, and both sides refused to give in. At the critical moment, Kabuto remembered a method that Orochimaru had mentioned to restrain this forbidden technique.
He tried his best to use that method and successfully destroyed the plan of the defecting ninja. After this battle, Kabuto became a hero who protected the peace of the ninja world. After that, he continued to travel around the ninja world with his team, maintaining peace in various places, and his name was forever remembered in the history of ninjas. Many years later, Kabuto's deeds have become legends. One day, his team came to a remote village. There was a strange smell in the village. After investigation, they found that a strange disease had appeared here, and the sick people would gradually lose chakra and become weak. Kabuto judged that this was definitely not an ordinary disease.
They searched for the cause of the disease and found that it was caused by a loose seal in the underground. This seal seemed to be related to an evil organization in ancient times. Dou decided to repair the seal. However, during the repair process, he encountered strong resistance. It turned out that the remaining power of the evil organization was causing trouble.
Kabuto and his team worked together to fight against it using their own unique skills. Kabuto used the mixed ninjutsu he had studied for many years, and the team members worked closely together. After a hard battle, they finally defeated the evil force and successfully repaired the seal.
The village has regained its vitality, and the villagers are grateful to Kabuto and his team. Kabuto looks at the vibrant village, feeling very relieved. He knows that his mission is still going on, and there are still many unknowns in the ninja world waiting for him to explore. He takes his team on a new journey.
