"That guy being surrounded is the one we're looking for?"
In the distance, Obito emerged from behind a tree and looked toward Kabuto Yakushi, who wore a red robe and was surrounded by a group of Otogakure ninja led by the Sound Four.
Zetsu poked his head out of the ground and explained.
"His name is Kabuto Yakushi. He was originally an orphan at the Konoha Orphanage, raised by the Wandering Miko, a former member of Root.
"Later, Danzo blackmailed him into becoming a spy and infiltrating Iwagakure.
"In the end, Danzo even toyed with him, making him kill the orphanage director who had raised him with his own hands.
"Orochimaru later took him in. Although he never publicly accepted him as a disciple, he always kept him close and taught him, essentially training him as one.
"He made a considerable contribution to Orochimaru's Konoha Crush Plan.
"But he also came into conflict with Orochimaru after the Konoha Crush Plan. Only recently did they finally break with each other."
"Konoha, heh. I didn't expect him to come from Konoha too."
Obito gave a cold laugh.
"Do you know why he turned against Orochimaru?"
Black Zetsu thought for a while before answering.
"My guess is that it's still because of Konoha.
"Because of what happened to Yakushi Nonō, Kabuto Yakushi has always hated Konoha and Danzo.
"He probably kept following Orochimaru because Orochimaru wanted to overthrow Konoha.
"But Orochimaru's so-called Konoha Crush Plan only killed Hiruzen Sarutobi and a few unimportant people. Konoha wasn't destroyed, and Danzo didn't die.
"That left him very dissatisfied. Since the Konoha Crush Plan, Orochimaru has focused on developing Otogakure and the Land of Rice Fields. Perhaps that made Kabuto Yakushi feel there was no longer any reason to follow him."
Black Zetsu's speculation was perfectly
