[Ōnoki: Danzo, you've done so many bad things! Why Tenten keep planting spies in our Iwagakure?]
[Danzo: Hmph, Hiruzen will definitely understand me. Everything I've done is for Konoha.]
Danzo has started to completely lose his shame. Besides, it's all too common for them to plant spies in each other's villages. Can you honestly say that your brother, Ōnoki, didn't plant spies in Konoha? Let's not accuse each other.
Next, Nonō's son, Kabuto Yakushi, officially leaves the game, and our Dream-Making Master of the Shinobi World, the number one person below the Six Paths, the Dragon-Snake Sage Kabuto Yakushi, officially enters the game.
[The plot shifts, and Kabuto resumes his espionage career; their first target is Akatsuki.]
Kabuto quickly gained Sasori's trust with his outstanding abilities and became a double agent under Sasori's command.
[Yahiko: Ah, what's with Akatsuki again? Was I too careless when I chose the name? How come there are so many people with the same name?]
[Obito: Yahiko, have you forgotten Lord Jiraiya's assessment? It's obvious that the Akatsuki is no longer the peace-loving Akatsuki you claim to be. It seems Nagato has secretly sidelined you.]
[Nagato:???]
[Obito: I suspect Nagato wants to rule the Shinobi World. Yahiko, you need to be careful; Nagato might be rebellious.]
Even Nagato was now questioning whether he was truly going to rule the Shinobi World. Before, when he took stock of himself, he seemed like a bad person, and now there was Sasori from the Akatsuki, whose appearance didn't seem like that of a good person at all.
Sasori had no idea that he had been tricked by Kabuto. On the surface, Kabuto was helping Sasori collect data on Orochimaru's Impure World Reincarnation, but in reality, he was using Sasori to make contact with the Akatsuki.
Kabuto did his best to complete every task under Orochimaru's command.
Assist in experiments and collect data.
The scene depicts countless subordinates like him, who were subdued by Orochimaru. Some possess powerful Kekkei Genkai, some have strong physiques, and some are incredibly powerful.
Kabuto's task was to collect data on their bodies and then conduct experiments in cooperation with Orochimaru.
Hozuki Suigetsu's Hydrification Technique, Jūgo Cursed Seal Power, Kimimaro's Shikotsumyaku, and Karin's Uzumaki Bloodline.
Many of the experiments sent chills down the spines of the viewers; for example, Kabuto had actually implanted a snake's blood into his own body.
At this time, no one knew that it was Orochimaru's corpse, and that Kabuto was using this method to transplant Orochimaru's abilities.
Kabuto's appearance has changed. His once handsome appearance has inexplicably been covered in snake-like scales, and he is evolving into a half-human, half-snake.
[Rasa: Holy crap, what is this guy doing? Is he experimenting on himself?]
[Shikaku Nara: If I'm not mistaken, he's probably having something transplanted.]
[Tsunade: No, no, this is disgusting. None of the people who follow Orochimaru are normal.]
[Mei Terumi: What a poor little thing.]
Orochimaru dismissed Tsunade's accusations, saying, "Kabuto is searching for his own path to strength, what's wrong with that? But you, Tsunade, we're old teammates, aren't we? I didn't hesitate when you lent me money before, and you've already forgotten about it?"
Tsunade probably knew that what she did was somewhat unfair, and that she had no right to criticize others.
There are many ordinary people like Kabuto in the Shinobi World; only by being ruthless to oneself can one become stronger.
[The scene shows Dou acting suspiciously in a cemetery.]
All around him were the sacrifices he had captured to be used in the Impure World Reincarnation.
The surrounding area was filled with abandoned graves, their sheer number astonishing.
[Yugito Nii: This situation seems familiar, but I'm not sure. Let me take another look.]
[Hunter: Do you even need to look? This guy's just a grave robber.]
Good heavens! When we were doing the initial review, everyone was wondering who used such a large-scale Impure World Reincarnation. At the time, everyone pointed the finger at Orochimaru, but now we never expected that we would have wronged Orochimaru.
You little rascal, you sneaked here to rob graves? Don't you have any ancestors? You're stealing other people's ancestral graves.
Oh, you're an orphan? That's alright then.
No, even if you're an animal, you can't dig up someone's grave.
They say the dead should be respected, but judging from Dou's appearance, he's not going to let the dead rest in peace.
Kabuto watched the ongoing Impure World Reincarnation with bated breath. The number of corpses was too great; he could only hope to pull out a powerful one, like opening a blind box.
At this moment, Dou is just like a player who is drawing cards. He has painstakingly collected so many gold coins and is just waiting for the first draw.
"What? I thought it was Scorpion," Kabuto complained.
Then, Sasori's grandmother, Chiyo, was summoned. Although both were A-rank ninjas, Sasori was clearly stronger in combat.
In the Land of Waves, two graves await. Kabuto finally finds the grave of Zabuza, the Demon.
[Zabuza: What do you mean, my grave?]
[Zabuza: Did I send it?]
[Obito: The Land of Waves, huh? That sounds familiar. Could it be from when I first did that dungeon quest?]
Since Zabuza and Haku did not die at Gato's hands in the Butterfly Effect arc, Obito was unaware that Zabuza died in the Land of Waves.
[The scene shifts again to the Memorial Stone in Konoha.]
[Hiruzen Sarutobi: How dare you, you brat, you wouldn't be...,,,
[Jiraiya: This... that young man named Kabuto wouldn't really do that, would he?]
[Nara Shika: No matter what, it's absolutely unforgivable.]
The Memorial Stone contains the tombstones of over a thousand deceased individuals, each a hero who died fighting for Konoha.
The camera then shifts to show inscriptions on many tombstones.
Asuma Sarutobi, Dan Katō, Gekko Hayate, and many other unnamed Shinobi.
In Kabuto's eyes, these were all gold coins for him to use in the lottery; he didn't believe he couldn't win them.
Amegakure, card drawing phase.
A Shinobi wearing a gas mask slowly emerged from the Impure World Reincarnation.
"You're Hanzo of the Salamander?" Kabuto said with delight.
"No, I am Hanzō Heiji, the right-hand man of Hattori Heiji."
Dude, if you're not Hanzō, what are you pretending for? He's wearing a gas mask and you're wearing one too? Who do you think you are, wearing the same one as him? You made me happy for nothing.
Seriously, dude, is your luck really that bad? You've tried so many times, at least give me an S! You gave me a Hanzō and right hand, which is practically Hanzo's underling.
Helpless, Kabuto arrived at the Fire Temple in the Land of Fire. The Fire Temple was now abandoned, with hundreds of coffins in the backyard, each one completely dismantled. Clearly, the gacha master Kabuto was planning another gacha pull.
"Are you the Twelve Guardian Ninja, Chiriku?" Kabuto asked a short monk.
"No, this humble monk is Chiriku's teacher Chūkaku."
At first glance, it seemed that Chiriku's teacher was even more capable than Chiriku, but upon closer inquiry, it turned out to be about teaching.
I'm really at my wit's end. I've dug up so many graves, and all I get in return are a few of these tiny karaomi.
Wait a minute, it wasn't this difficult when Orochimaru was teaching me before. Didn't I manage to draw an Explosion Release: Hunting Technique back then? How come my luck is so bad now?
