In Forest of Death, Kanpū sits alone under a big tree and meditates.
'If Kabuto is still in the Root, how can I get him out of the Root?
'If he can't escape plot and has been assigned by Danzo to serve as a spy in an enemy country, where should I go to find him?'
Kanpū's brain hurts.
'No, no, I have to focus my energy on 3-Tomoe Sharingan, Impure World Reincarnation, Senju Clan's physique and Wood Release, Shisui's Mangekyo or something…Should I take it slow?'
'But Shisui is my friend after all, so I should help if I can.'
'Besides, my right hand has become like this, so I can't do anything in a short time.'
Kanpū looked back at the shadow clones, who were still working hard to brew their sadness, got up and left the Forest of Death silently.
During the Third Shinobi World War, due to the death of a large number of Shinobi and the sacrifice of logistic personnel, coupled with the children captured from enemy countries, a large number of orphans appeared in Konoha, so during that period, many orphanages sprung up in Konoha like mushrooms.
But with the end of the war, the orphans in the orphanage grew up one by one and left the orphanage one after another. Without new orphans joining, there were naturally fewer and fewer orphanages.
After some inquiries, Kanpū found out that there are only two orphanages left in Konoha. One orphanage is public and funded by the village's financial allocation, while the other is private, and the location is...very remote!
Intuition tells Kanpū that this remote orphanage is Nono's orphanage!
Speeding all the way there, Kanpū reached this orphanage located in the depths of a remote mountain forest at one o'clock in the afternoon.
Kanpū opened the way with money. And after donating 5 million, he met the person in charge smoothly.
The Orphanage's person in charge is a middle-aged nun wearing a black nun uniform. She looks to be in her fifties, and there are four female nuns under her, all of whom are middle-aged and elderly. As for orphan, about twelve or thirteen, the youngest is four or five years old, and the oldest fifteen to sixteen. They are not timid when they see guests, and they are noisy and laughing. It seems that the atmosphere is not bad.
The middle-aged nun scolded the orphans for a while, and brought Kanpū into the meeting room, and served him tea herself.
"Sister."
Kanpū sipped his tea very politely, and asked curiously, "I remember the person in charge here was not you, right?"
The middle-aged nun is fat and flabby, but she smiles very kindly, and replied: "Yes, the person in charge here was another nun, but she left many years ago, wait, you… … you must have been very young at that time, are you also a child from this orphanage?"
Kanpū's face was twitched, and he quickly shook his head and said with a smile: "No, no, you misunderstood. I heard from the elders in my family, it seems that the former person in charge was called Yakushi Nono, right?"
When the middle-aged nun heard that Kanpū didn't grow up here, she couldn't help but sighed and said:" Yes, it's her, unfortunately…"
"When did she leave?" Kanpū asked casually.
The middle-aged nun didn't answer, but changed the subject and said: "Gekko-dono, thank you very much for your donation to this orphanage. I plan to put up a wooden sign for you and put your name…"
"Don't, don't, don't!"
Kanpū quickly stopped her and said, "It's just a donation of a little money, it's not worth the nun to do this."
"Is that so, what a pity." The middle-aged nun said with emotion. She also thought that if Kanpū liked this, she would be able to get him as their bank in the future.
'What a pity!'
"By the way, Sister, I don't think this orphanage is doing very well. How did you survive?" Kanpū calmly revealed his fox's tail.
'If Kabuto is in Konoha, he will definitely use his salary to fund this orphanage.'
'If not, then I can learn something else.'
'As for Danzo?'
Kanpū sneered in his heart, 'Although Danzo used the funds from the orphanage to coerce Yakushi Nono to become an undercover agent, but judging from the current situation of Root's funding, it is absolutely impossible for Danzo to fund this orphanage!'
The middle-aged nun said with emotion: "It's Kabuto. From time to time, he donates some money and things to the orphanage. Although it's not much, it really helps us a lot."
Kanpū's pupils shrank: 'Here he comes!'
"Kabuto is?" Kanpū looked at the middle-aged nun in confusion.
"Kabuto used to be a child here, but he was taken away after only a few years of coming here."
The middle-aged nun said, "After that, Nono also left, and she hasn't come back yet."
"Kabuto is a Shinobi, right?"
Kanpū said with a smile, "Ordinary people can't do such thing like supporting an orphanage."
The middle-aged nun nodded: "Yes, Kabuto is a Shinobi, but he seems to be unhappy. Every time he comes here, he never shows a smile."
"Hearing what you said, I really want to get to know him." Kanpū said with a smile.
The middle-aged nun was taken aback: 'You want to know him just because of what I said?'
The middle-aged nun looked at Kanpū suspiciously, then looked at the ninja forehead protector on Kanpū's forehead, and asked: "You are also a Shinobi, don't tell me…. you have a grudge against Kabuto?"
"Hehehe."
Kanpū forced a laugh and said, "You think too much. If I have a grudge against him, why would I come here to donate?"
When the middle-aged nun thought about this, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said: "Kabuto is a good child. He learned Medical Ninjutsu by himself not long after he came here, and even helped Shinobi who retired from battlefield. Nono likes him very much and took good care of him, but later… haah."
The middle-aged nun shook her head and stopped speaking. After all, what happened afterwards involved the village's high-level advisor, so she couldn't just talk about it.
Kanpū did not ask, and said with a smile: "Self-taught Medical Ninjutsu? It seems that this Kabuto's talent in Medical Ninjutsu is very good. If possible…"
Kanpū looked down towards his right hand, which was casted in a plaster.
The middle-aged nun's eyes lit up and she said: "Do you want Kabuto to help treat you?"
Kanpū nodded subtly.
It seems that my right hand is injured at the right time!
Kanpū then said with a smile: "If possible, can you please help tell him for me? If he is willing to help, I am willing to fund a remuneration for the orphanage!"
The middle-aged nun nodded repeatedly.
After leaving the address of his mansion, Kanpū left quietly.
...
Time passed, and three days passed in a blink of an eye.
At noon this day.
Kanpū is lying in the backyard of his home and basking in the sun, trying to speed up the recovery of his right hand injury through photosynthesis, but the effect is not good so far.
Not far away, Karin is standing in the shadow of the courtyard wall practicing the Fuinjutsu, and from time to time, she would take out a scroll to check. Her little mouth seems to be murmuring and it is unknown what she was talking about.
Kanpū looked up at the scorching red sun and blue sky, and then thought about the size of his mansion, suddenly feeling the years are quiet!
"Brother, Brother!!"
Hayate's shout came from the front yard, "Someone is looking for you!!"
"Okay."
Kanpū yawned, and lazily stepped on the wooden corridor to the front yard.
In front of the big iron gate, stood a fourteen-five-year-old youngster with a messy shoulder-length gray hair, and there was some baby fat on both sides of his cheeks. Wearing a pair of round eyes, his eyes dodged a little shyly.
'This is…'
Kanpū is somewhat dumbfounded.
'Is he really Kabuto?'
'This unconfident appearance… is seriously inconsistent with his capable appearance at the beginning of the plot.' If he sees this guy outside, Kanpū will never recognize him as Kabuto.
"Brother, who is he?" Hayate asked while standing beside him carrying a sword.
"Go train with your sword."
Kanpū waved the little brother away, then turned to look at the young man outside, and said with a smile, "You are Kabuto, right?"
The young man outside the iron gate nodded: "It's me, you…"
Kabuto's gaze looked towards Kanpū's right hand, and said, "The nun has already told me about you. I will try my best to heal your hand."
Kanpū smiled: "I will also try to support the orphanage."
Kabuto revealed a forced smile when he heard this.
"Come in."
Kanpū led Kabuto to the reception room and poured him a cup of tea with his left hand.
"Let me take a look at your hand first."
Kabuto took the teacup but didn't drink it.
'Alertness is not bad.'
Kanpū sat across from him with a smile on his face, and stretched out his right hand which is wrapped with plaster cast.
Kabuto seemed to be relieved, and put his hands on Kanpū's right hand, and soon, a layer of Chakra light overflowed from his hand and quickly spread to Kanpū's hand.
After a while, Kabuto frowned.
"How is it?" Kanpū asked with a smile.
"Your finger bone is broken."
Kabuto glanced at him, then lowered his head and said, "I don't have a better solution for this kind of injury. I'm sorry, I can't help you."
After saying that, Kabuto stood up and wanted to leave.
Kanpū hurriedly motioned for him to sit down again: "Don't worry, I still have something to tell you."
Kabuto looked at Kanpū in confusion.
"I heard that you mastered Medical Ninjutsu through self-taught in childhood. I think your talent in Medical Ninjutsu is very good, how about it? Do you want me to introduce you to Anbu?" Kanpū probed.
"Anbu?" Kabuto's expression changed upon hearing this.
'There is something wrong with this expression.'
A thought flashed through Kanpū's mind, he smiled and asked: "Did Advisor Danzo tell you something?"
Even though Danzo is weak now, it does not mean that Danzo is an idiot. With his control of the Root, Kabuto's appearance is probably due to a certain mission granted by Danzo.
'For example, getting the undercover agent to be by my side, or to enter the Anbu through me as an undercover agent?'
"You, you already know that I am…" Kabuto looked horrified, and his expression changed again and again.
Kanpū smiled with satisfaction: 'Hehehe, I like to look at your expression!'
But at the next moment, Kanpū felt some creepiness!
'How did Kabuto debut?'
'He is a spy, an undercover agent, a cunning character who can lie in the Four Great Shinobi Villages of Sunagakure, Iwagakure, Kirigakure, and Kumogakure, without any injuries and escape completely!'
'Although Kabuto in this time and space has not embarked on the old path of being a pro spy like in the original work, it is absolutely impossible for him to be the simple youngster whose 'expression changed drastically' in front of me!'
'That means…'
'What I see in front of my eyes is fake!'
'Danzo is…No, it's Kabuto. He has collected my information, analyzed my character, and deliberately revealed such a look that would please me!'
'He knows that I can guess Danzo's conspiracy, but he deliberately made such a gesture in order to… protect himself?'
