Acting and Misdirection

Yakushi Kabuto picked up the Suitcase next to his seat and got out of the car.

Standing in front of Charlotte Agency, Yakushi Kabuto looked up at the sign above his head and then walked forward.

Just as he reached the door, the doorman immediately opened the Agency door and respectfully said, "Please come in, sir!"

Yakushi Kabuto nodded and entered the Agency.

This was Yakushi Kabuto's first time visiting Charlotte Agency. He walked inside, taking in the layout and decor of the entire Agency.

As I walked through the administrative corridor, the staff I encountered all showed respect upon seeing the Headband the Yakushi Kabuto.

Selene was working at the service desk at the time, while Michael stood aside acting as a security guard.

Selene watched as Yakushi Kabuto approached step by step, and was somewhat surprised when she saw the Headband on his head. That mark looked like the symbol of S.H.I.E.L.D..

Thinking of this, Selene opened a drawer and took out a Business Card. The front of the Business Card showed Phil Coulson and his phone number, while the back had the S.H.I.E.L.D.. logo of a soaring eagle.

Looking at the S.H.I.E.L.D.. logo on the Business Card and the Jonin Headband mark on the man's forehead, Selene was momentarily bewildered. What was going on? Did S.H.I.E.L.D.. also train ninjas?

Yakushi Kabuto, carrying a Suitcase, approached the service counter, looked at Selene sitting inside, and said:

"I am Yakushi Kabuto, a ninja from S.H.I.E.L.D.., and I'd like to purchase some Ninja Tools from you."

Selene was visibly taken aback by the man's words. On one hand, just as she had guessed, the man in front of her was indeed a S.H.I.E.L.D. ninja. On the other hand, she hadn't expected him to come to buy Ninja Tools.

"Sorry, Charlotte Agency does not sell Ninja Tools."

Yakushi Kabuto looked at the woman in front of him and said, "You're not a ninja, are you?"

Selene nodded upon hearing the question, "That's right, I'm not a ninja."

Hearing that the other party's reaction was as he had expected, Yakushi Kabuto nodded secretly, then said, "Yakushi Kabuto from the Land of Fire Missing-nin, has come to pay a visit. Please inform the ninja in the Agency that he is willing to meet with me."

Selene looked at the man in front of her, thought for a moment, and then said, "Okay, please wait a moment."

Selene picked up the landline on the service counter, dialed the number, and waited a few seconds before the call was answered.

"Master Ninja, a man has come to the front desk. He says he's Missing-nin from the Land of Fire and has come to pay a visit."

"Yes, yes, I understand."

Selene hung up the phone, then looked at Yakushi Kabuto and said, "The ninja has granted your request."

"Michael, take this Yakushi Kabuto, to the Reception Room."

Yakushi Kabuto smiled, nodded, and followed Michael toward the Reception Room.

At this moment, in Nick Fury's office at S.H.I.E.L.D..

Nick Fury and Coulson sat in the office, where a speaker on the table played back every single word that Yakushi Kabuto had said after entering Charlotte Agency.

However, Yakushi Kabuto's Suitcase contained a miniature Bug that recorded all his words and transmitted them to S.H.I.E.L.D..

Yakushi Kabuto followed Michael into the Reception Room, placed his Suitcase on the table, and sat down on the sofa.

Yakushi Kabuto didn't have to wait long in the Reception Room before the meeting room door was pushed open.

The newcomer was none other than Anbu Kakashi Hatake. However, although Kakashi was dressed as Anbu, he was not wearing an Anbu mask.

Looking at the man in front of him, Yakushi Kabuto immediately recalled the man's information.

This week was Kakashi 'Anbu to guard Charlotte Agency. When he received a call from Selene, and she mentioned the Land of Fire, Kakashi knew things weren't simple and agreed to meet her.

Kakashi, upon entering the conference room, spoke first, "You are Missing-nin Yakushi Kabuto from the Land of Fire?"

At this moment, Yakushi Kabuto spoke while communicating with Kakashi using hand gestures and coded language commonly used by Anbu Ninja.

"Yes, I am Yakushi Kabuto, Missing-nin from the Land of Fire, but I have now joined S.H.I.E.L.D.. on Earth and become one of their ninjas."

Yakushi Kabuto's Anbu language conveyed another meaning. "I am a ninja brought by Lord Charlotte, and I have been assigned to infiltrate S.H.I.E.L.D.."

"I suspect there's a listening device in the box, and that's why I communicated with you beforehand using Anbu sign language."

Kakashi watched Yakushi Kabuto's sign language and listened to what he was saying. He glanced at the Suitcase on the table, multitasking as he answered Yakushi Kabuto's words while simultaneously communicating with Yakushi Kabuto using Anbu sign language.

"Since you are Missing-nin from the Land of Fire, how did you come to Earth?"

"What brings you here?"

The coded message on his hand read, "Understood, I will cooperate with you."

When Yakushi Kabuto revealed that he was brought by Lord Charlotte and could use Anbu sign language, he knew that the other party was not an outsider, but a Konoha Ninja brought by Lord Charlotte with Ninja Tools.

After all, ninjas outside the village don't know how to use the Anbu sign language, and those who aren't Anbu members don't understand it either.

However, Yakushi Kabuto had received training from Root since childhood and was very familiar with Anbu sign language, after all, Root was also known as the Anbu Training Department.

The conversation between the two was transmitted back to Nick Fury's office at S.H.I.E.L.D.. However, they could only hear the two talking, but could not see the two sitting face to face, frantically communicating using Anbu Guard sign language.

With a smile on his face, Yakushi Kabuto began, "The main reason for this visit to Konoha's base here is to purchase some Ninja Tools, such as Explosive Tags, Smoke Bomb, and Military Ration Pill."

"How did I come to Earth? It was because I entered a Temple and triggered the Formation within it, and that's how I inexplicably ended up here."

"As for the location of the Temple, I can tell you, but I have a condition: I need the qualification to continuously purchase Ninja Tools from you."

"After all, as you know, now that I'm here, I don't have the ability to go back, and I can't replenish my Ninja Tools."

"While Ninja Tools such as Kunai and Shuriken can be crafted and replenished here, supplies like Explosive Tags, Smoke Bomb, and Military Ration Pill cannot be obtained."

"Especially the Explosive Tags and Military Ration Pill, these are of paramount importance!"

Upon hearing Yakushi Kabuto's words, Kakashi nodded and said, "Since you're willing to exchange the location that led you to Earth for the right to purchase Ninja Tools in the future, I'll make the decision and agree."

Meanwhile, in S.H.I.E.L.D.., Nick Fury looked at Coulson and asked, "What are Military Ration Pill?"
