Land of Water, in a remote village.
Kabuto was sitting next to a high mound of earth, treating sick villagers. At first, in order to eliminate the villagers' wariness of outsiders, he made up a reason.
"I heard that this Village was trapped by the plague. Land of Water Daimyo specially sent me to rescue. Priority is given to seriously ill patients and the elderly, women and children. Please line up and come for treatment..."
Kabuto Yakushi, while treating an old woman, the unkempt little girl looked at the snake behind Kabuto curiously, with a confused face. "Uncle, why is there a snake behind your butt?"
Bah, bah, bah!
The snake stared at the little girl in front of him with its erect eyes and spat out the snake letter.
Kabuto Yakushi said with a smile, "Uncle is a bad guy, he has a heart of snakes and scorpions, so he has a snake growing on his butt..."
But the little girl said, "Uncle is not a bad person, he is a great good person. He cured his brother and ♡Dad♡'s illness, and now he can also cure grandma's illness!"
Dou smiled noncommittally and said to the kind old woman in front of him, "Old man, I will prescribe you some medicine. You can take it for three days starting from tonight, no, starting from tomorrow..."
The consultation lasted until the evening, and Kabuto warned them that they would have to fast all day long.
Then in the dead of night, Kabuto came to the only well in Village and poured the prepared medicine into it.
Sasuke, wearing a black robe and covering his hair with a hood, came behind Kabuto and asked in confusion, "Why would you do such a thing?"
Kabuto Yakushi pushed up his glasses and said, "The root cause of the villagers' illness is drinking unclean water. If the water is not Purification, even if it is cured now, they will still get sick in the future..."
Sasuke emphasized. "What I'm asking is not why you want to give them medical treatment and Purification water. Aren't we here to find someone? Just ask for the information directly. If they don't want to tell us, we can use Sharingan to settle it..."
Kabuto said, "Sasuke, force is not the only way to solve problems. When it is not a last resort, there are usually better ways than force."
"..." Sasuke responded with silence.
Kabuto Yakushi is persuasive. "I want to train you to be an intellectual person, not a machine that only knows how to kill."
"Naruto once asked Five Great Shinobi Villages for Secret Technique Scroll and Secret Technique are the top secrets of each village, but he is Missing-nin, but he only has friction with Kumogakure. Kirigakure is even grateful for his help. This is the brilliance of Naruto..."
Hearing this, Sasuke clenched his fists. "If you can do it alone, why place your hopes on those insignificant people!"
"That's wrong." Kabuto Yakushi shook his head lightly. "For example, let's assume that Naruto's force value is 100, and the force value of others is 1. It's a very simple arithmetic problem, 100+1, it must be greater than 100, right? If one day, Naruto also encounters a person with a force value of 100, then the role of 1 will be highlighted!"
"..." Sasuke was speechless.
Kabuto Yakushi said calmly, "Well, this example is a bit utilitarian. I hope you don't start from a utilitarian perspective and become an intellectual person..."
Hearing this, Sasuke chuckled, "Hmph... does anyone who uses all Impure World Reincarnate as Pawn have any so-called intelligence?"
"Well..." Kabuto Yakushi was startled for a moment, then pushed up his glasses. "I hope that my shortcomings can be improved by you. I have always had this idea recently, and I don't know why."
Kabuto Yakushi, do you know what this kind of mentality is called?
Kabuto has asked himself many times, but he is unwilling to admit it.
The answer is--[]
"Kabuto, I'm going to sleep first..." Sasuke turned around and walked towards the tent in the background behind.
Kabuto warned, "Remember to close the tent. The weather has been getting colder recently~"
Sasuke responded, "I know... what a long-winded guy."
Early the next morning, Kabuto saw Village Chief.
Village Chief held Kabuto's hand tightly and said enthusiastically, "Thank you so much. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have known how we would have overcome this difficulty. This is a little thought from the villagers, please accept it."
On the table, each family collected some money and food.
But Dou said politely, "I accept the wishes of the folks. I act impartially, and these cannot be accepted..."
Village Chief was happy inwardly, but also expressed regret on the outside. "Oh, it's so embarrassing to have to go all the way and cure the villagers' diseases, but to have you go back empty-handed..."
Dou Dagong said selflessly, "It is the bounden duty of a doctor to treat illnesses and save people. He does not ask for anything in return..."
Village Chief sighed, "Oh... you are such a good person. In this world, there are not many good people like you anymore. To be honest, we Village are actually very poor. These money and food are all squeezed out by the villagers through our teeth. If you really take it away, you will really be unable to open the door. Please allow me to thank you for your kindness on their behalf!!"
Saying that, Village Chief was about to kneel down and bow down.
"I can't, I can't..." Dou hurriedly held Village Chief's shoulders, helped him to the chair, and said seriously, "Actually, if you really want to thank me, you don't have to give me these, just tell me the whereabouts of a person..."
Village Chief asked, "Who is it? Please tell me. If I know anything, I will tell you!"
Kabuto Yakushi said, "That man is considered a friend of my father and has shown kindness to our family. Over the years, I have always wanted to find this benefactor and repay his kindness. I asked around and found out that he stayed in this Village for a period of time many years ago. You should know..."
Village Chief:"His name is..."
Kabuto Yakushi:"Cixin."
"This..." Village Chief's expression fluctuated strongly.
In order to find the orphan Senju, Kabuto used all his intelligence network, starting from the whereabouts of Cixin, the son of Hashirama Senju, and finally found a clue!
In his early years, Cixin, who had no ambitions in Ninja, came to the village of Land of Water in order to stay away from disputes and stayed for a while!
Village Chief sighed, "Well, to be honest, Cixin came to Village with a woman, the previous Village Chief, who was my father. Dear receptionist, the well in the village was dug by Cixin. Before leaving, he told us not to reveal anything about him. I think you will never see Cixin again..."
Kabuto Yakushi was surprised. "Why is this?"
Village Chief revealed the truth. "Cixin was suffering from an incurable disease back then, and his life was not long. After so many years, he should be gone long ago..."
Kabuto Yakushi felt disappointed. "Is this so? My benefactor has passed away. How can I repay him..."
Seeing this, Village Chief was distraught. Ninja Way: "You have saved the lives of the entire village. It shows that you are not an evildoer. I will make an exception and tell you the location of Cixin's descendants..."
Kabuto Yakushi, his eyes suddenly brightened.
Senju orphans actually exist!!
