Part Time Employee in Konoha

Everything Akihara Kagura says is the truth.

In the memories of a past life, Akihara Kagura had a certain impression of Kabuto.

In the future, Kabuto is a very useful talent. His spying ability alone is better than many others, probably only slightly less skilled than Akihara Kagura himself.

Besides, Kabuto's brain is also very smart, very good at learning, and in the future, he can help with human experiments, improve various ninja forbidden jutsus, and maybe even help Akihara Kagura learn the ninja world's most mysterious immortality techniques.

In short.

This person is a talent.

What is most needed in the ninja world?

Talent.

To get closer to Kabuto, Akihara Kagura made up a story out of thin air in Training Ground Nine about himself coming from an orphanage, which could barely make Kabuto feel good about him, but not enough to really trust him.

Of course, it is a strong bond.

What is the most important thing in the ninja world? Bonds.

As long as you can create a potential and strong bond with Kabuto, it would make him remember your existence, and in the future, there would be a chance to make him one of your own.

However...

The two actually have no connection at all...

So, Akihara Kagura first talked about his own origins from the Konoha orphanage, how he misses the life there, how he misses the Dean of the orphanage...

All these...

Are all false.

But these falsehoods are Kabuto's true inner feelings.

The one who really came from the orphanage is Kabuto, the one who really misses the life at the orphanage is also Kabuto, the one who really misses the Dean of the orphanage, Kabuto, and the one who really wants to show Yakushi Nono how he's grown up is still Kabuto...

Akihara Kagura tells these lies, just as a warm prelude, to make Kabuto think that there are similarities between them;

Now, Akihara Kagura needs to use a tragic story to break through the warm prelude and make Kabuto believe that there is actually a bond between them.

As long as there is a bond between the two...

In the future, there is the possibility of Kabuto helping him.

After all, Akihara Kagura doesn't know any otherworldly illusion techniques that can change the will of others, nor does he have a system ability to monitor whether the other party will be loyal to him, and he won't use a low-level and dangerous control method like embedding a curse seal in the other's vital parts...

Akihara Kagura is just an Employee.

An Employee who wants to get more and can only use some superficial methods and try to make more capable friends.

"Kabuto."

Akihara Kagura looked at Kabuto, who was full of caution, and smiled playfully: "What do you think I want you to do?"

"I don't know yet..."

Kabuto furrowed his brow, pondering for a moment before replying, "But I know one thing, when you met me, it shouldn't have been as you said, happy to see someone from the same orphanage..."

"When you first mentioned the Dean's name, there was no sense of longing on your face, more like talking about someone you hadn't seen for a long time..."

"However."

"I am still very happy today."

"Because it's been a long time since someone brought up the past."

"Because what you said on the training ground, is all that I wanted to say."

"Maybe I've been suppressed in this organization for too long..."

Kabuto adjusted his glasses and whispered, "I'm starting to miss the days in the orphanage more and more, and the person who treated me like a mother..."

As Kabuto spoke, he suddenly changed the subject: "However... you don't miss the days in the orphanage, nor do you miss the Dean..."

"Is that so?"

"Root Organization's Kagura."

Kabuto's eyes showed determination, believing in the intuition and experience his years as a spy had given him: "You hate me... and you also hate the Dean..."

"You say you want to take care of me, but you made me offend other members of the Root Organization, the combat ninjas I shouldn't have crossed..."

"You don't want me to stay in the Root Organization..."

"Even... you want to use people from Root to kill me..."

Feeling he might have guessed some truth, Kabuto softly asked, "Am I right? Lord Kagura."

"..."

Clap... Clap... Clap... Clap...

The young ninja couldn't help but clap his hands, his smile growing wider as he nodded and praised, "Well said, you guessed it all."

What a load of crap!

He guessed it all wrong!

Could it be that Kabuto never doubted the truth? Or does Kabuto think that they are not worth being deceived? Is this Kabuto really smart?

Well.

Everything was fake in the first place.

Kabuto could only guess the false results from a false direction, and it was already good to guess that he already formulated a tragic story line.

"I have some trouble understanding."

Kabuto looked at the young man with a hint of doubt in their eyes: "You were also adopted by the Dean and lived in the orphanage in the village, there shouldn't be any hatred between us."

"Why shouldn't there be?"

Akihara Kagura couldn't help but laugh cheerfully.

The young man slowly spread his palms, word by word saying: "Many great hatreds often stem from trivial matters, from a sudden thought in someone's mind…"

"What do you mean?"

Kabuto didn't quite understand.

"Jealousy."

"One of the original sins of the world."

Akihara Kagura slowly walked towards Kabuto, the smile on his face gradually turning cold:"'If there were no comparisons in this world, there would be no hurt, and emotions like jealousy would not arise…"

"Jealousy?"

"Yes, unprecedented jealousy…"

Akihara Kagura approached Kabuto, the young man's eyes gradually becoming fierce: "Why do you have the same surname as the Dean? Why does the Dean always keep you in mind? Even though we are all just adopted children, even though I came first…"

"Because…"

Kabuto hesitated to give the answer: "When I was adopted by the Dean, I had forgotten all my memories, didn't remember my name or parents, so Dean gave me her surname…"

Kabuto remembered the woman who was as warm as a mother and continued, "Dean.... has she been worrying about me?"

"Yes..."

"She has always been worrying about you..."

"She even forgot that there was another child who was also sent to the base of the Root."

Akihara Kagura slowly turned around and walked step by step towards the inside of the corridor bridge: "I originally didn't want to hate her, nor did I want to hate you, and I even didn't want you to enter the Root..."

"But..."

"I saw what she had done for you, saw her inquiring about you in the Root organization, but she never remembered me. She didn't know what kind of days I had here, how I was bullied here when I was a kid!"

"Maybe... she had forgotten me a long time ago."

"I began to slowly hate her, and also despise you, who was being cared for. I realized something, the self that had embodied the will of the Root, developed feelings of jealousy..."

"Even though we both entered the Root..."

"Even though we are the same kind of people..."

"Kabuto..."

"How unfair this is…"
