? There is a rectangular guest table in the hall, Yakushi Nonō is sitting in the middle, the fat aunt Enna and the old man Fukamura are standing behind her, looking at the three uninvited guests who appear in front of them with wary faces.
He has black hair like a hedgehog, Haki Imbuement with white bandages on his right eye and right hand, a cross scar on his chin, and an indescribably sinister and deep gaze in the exposed left eye.
The man sitting in front of Yakushi Nonō is none other than Shimura Danzō, one of Konoha High Command.
Not only that, there were two ninjas standing behind Danzo. One had long black hair and a pair of evil snake eyes carved on his pale cheeks. The other wore a pair of black sunglasses and had a purple mark painted on the right corner of his mouth.
It is Orochimaru, one of Legendary Sannin, and Aburame Torune, another master of the Aburame Clan.
"I didn't expect that you, who is called 'Wandering Miko', would now be willing to be a nanny here."
Looking at Yakushi Nonō who looked a little haggard in front of him, Danzo held his chin with one hand and spoke in a deep voice to break the silence.
"I've given up on that name a long time ago..."
"And I have already negotiated the aid fund with Konoha, what are you doing here now?"
Staring at the uninvited Danzo and his two terrifying ninjas, Yakushi Nonō frowned deeply.
"Have you, who was once the top elite of the Intelligence Department, become so ignorant since you left your roots?"
"I came here this time... not just for the aid money."
Feeling the obvious resistance in Yakushi Nonō's eyes, Danzo got straight to the point and directly stated the purpose of today's trip.
"We have received intelligence...Iwagakure guys are planning to launch a large-scale combat plan during the current war."
"Now we need you to sneak into Iwagakure to investigate whether this information is true. If it is true, I hope you will investigate the time and place of the action, as well as the specific content of the action, and report it to us."
"This should be a long-term mission..."
At this time, Aburame Torune, who was standing behind Danzo, took over Danzo's words and explained his purpose to Yakushi Nonō.
"You have found the wrong person. I am no longer a member of your roots..."
But before Aburame Torune finished speaking, Yakushi Nonō interrupted him directly.
"You don't understand! How important the director is to the orphanage and the children!"
"The dean worked hard to raise funds and managed to save this place..."
At this time, the old man Fukamura, who was standing behind Yakushi Nonō, couldn't help but say excitedly.
"And for such a dangerous task... can't we just send people from your roots to do it? Why do we have to let the dean do it?!"
Similarly, the fat aunt Enna standing next to the old man Fukamura also spoke.
"Because the only one who can handle this long-term mission is Wandering Miko!"
Faced with the questioning from the two assistant directors of the orphanage, Danzo also raised his voice. "There is no spy who is more skilled than her in the root."
"A mediocre ninja will eventually have a mental breakdown or defect to the enemy."
"But if it is this woman... I believe she will never betray Konoha."
Looking at Yakushi Nonō sitting opposite him, Danzo's left eye narrowed slightly, revealing a dangerous light, "Looking at your expression, you seem to have understood?"
"Yes, Nonō, if you refuse, the orphanage will never receive funding in the future."
It seemed that the lines had been corrected a long time ago, and Aburame Torune beside him threatened in a deep voice.
"This... how can this be done?!"
"Master Third Hokage has already agreed... He can't possibly allow this to happen!"
Hearing the threats from Danzo and Aburame Torune, the fat aunt Enna standing behind Nonō couldn't help it.
"I think this orphanage seems to be easy for thieves to break into..."
"I advise you to hire a bodyguard to prevent your money from being stolen. The prerequisite is that you have money."
I had long expected that Nonō and the three of them would react like this, but Aburame Torune threatened them coldly.
"By the way, don't let all the children be stolen."
"After all, these unidentified children still have some use value..."
At this time, Orochimaru, who had been standing behind Danzo, also spoke.
The low, hoarse voice coupled with the threat revealed in the words, and the cold snake eyes make people shudder.
"You are so shameless! What kind of ninja do you think you are?"
Seeing Danzo in front of me and the dignified Konoha High Command actually doing such a thing, the old man Fukamura next to him was simply furious.
"You are the ones who are ignorant!"
Hearing Fukamura's angry curse in front of him, Danzo raised his voice and interrupted him, his sinister eyes flashing with almost pathological persistence, "As long as it is to protect Konoha, this price is not worth mentioning!"
"I understand..."
Faced with the threat of Danzo and his party, Yakushi Nonō, who was silent at this time, finally spoke.
"Dean! Could it be that you..."
Seeing Yakushi Nonō's compromise, Enna seemed to want to dissuade her.
"It's just because you're not ruthless enough that you're like this. You're really not suitable for Gen, Nonō."
Seeing Nonō compromise, Danzo showed a satisfied smile, but couldn't help but sigh.
"Shameless... it's okay to say this!"
Staring at the shameless Danzo in front of them, Fukamura couldn't help but grit his teeth.
"In addition... in order to obtain the information this time, one of my subordinates died. I will choose a child from here to supplement him."
It was as if he didn't hear the scolding deep down at all. As the leader of the roots, Danzo had already smoothed away these unnecessary emotions.
Realizing that someone outside the hall was eavesdropping on their conversation, Danzo felt a move in his heart and spoke deliberately.
"Originally, I was most interested in Yakushi Hane, but unfortunately, I was beaten to the spot by that guy Sarutobi..."
"Anyway, we will prepare the future expenses, so this time, let's exchange the money with that kid named Yakushi Kabuto."
Speaking of the name Yakushi Hane, remembering that he had been beaten one step ahead by his old rival Sarutobi Hiruzen, Danzo's eyes couldn't help but become gloomy again.
"Ha? Kabuto?"
"Don't push yourself too far! I have already agreed to your request! I will not give you any of the children here!"
Hearing Danzo make another rude request, Yakushi Nonō, who had always been gentle and graceful, finally became emotional.
She treats every child in the orphanage as her own, and she will not allow them to be harmed no matter what happens.
"I didn't expect it to be so lively here today..."
Just when several people in the hall were arguing, a clear voice broke the heaviness of the scene.
There is another kid?!
Hearing the sudden sound, Danzo and Orochimaru were stunned.
They could detect that Yakushi Kabuto was hiding outside the hall and eavesdropping on their conversation, but they did not realize that there was another kid outside at this moment.
