Chapter 26: The First Meeting of Two War Criminals of the Fourth Shinobi World War
Minato waited quietly outside the orphanage door. This orphanage was a very long house, with doors at the front and back, and no buildings around it. Just such a house stood alone in this wilderness.
Although Minato was a high-level official in Konoha now and knew of the existence of this orphanage, he actually hadn't been here. It was said that the director of this orphanage was a powerful woman who belonged to Root's intelligence department and was known as the "Walking Miko."
Unexpectedly, such a woman would be so loving and build an orphanage in such a wilderness. Thinking of this, a trace of a smile flashed in Minato's eyes. It seemed that the people inside weren't necessarily all bad people. Many people inside, like this director, had a kind heart, but because of Danzo's existence, that kind heart was buried!
Danzo, a trace of killing intent flashed in Minato's eyes. Sure enough, he couldn't let him go! Although Minato wanted Danzo to die immediately, he knew clearly that it was still in the war period. In the case that the war hadn't ended, Minato couldn't rashly take action against Danzo; otherwise, it would easily trigger a Konoha civil war. If Konoha had internal and external troubles, things would be troublesome! So now he could only forcibly suppress the killing intent toward Danzo!
Looking at the woods opposite the orphanage, Minato just stared blankly like this! After about half an hour, the orphanage door opened, and Kabuto walked out from inside. He nodded toward Minato and said softly:
"Fourth Hokage, do you have anything to find me for?"
Minato smiled slightly and also nodded to signal, then said:
"Let's talk while walking! I'll tell you about the reborn ones first!"
Because Kabuto was one of the initiators of the Fourth Shinobi World War. Naruto determined that he could play an important role, plus he and Orochimaru were still alive and well after the Fourth War, so their memories were much more than ordinary ninjas, but they were also intermittent.
"Can do! Where are we going?" Kabuto asked.
"Go to Obito's house!" Minato replied!
"Obito? Alright, I haven't seen him for a long time either, just in time to reminisce with him."
So the two walked and chatted about things after the Fourth War. Because both of them didn't walk fast, it took them about an hour to walk from the orphanage to Obito's house.
"So Naruto is already..." Kabuto asked.
"Not clear, I think it's better to ask Mr. Orochimaru about this, he should have a way."
"This matter is more troublesome. At that time, I was busy with the orphanage's affairs, so I didn't participate in the research of this ninjutsu, so I'm not familiar with this ninjutsu either. Let's do this, after Orochimaru-sama returns to Konoha, I will study with him, and should be able to think of a way to resurrect Naruto," Kabuto thought for a moment and said!
Minato was happy upon hearing this, but thought for a moment and still said:
"You should be more suitable to go back to the orphanage to help at this time!"
"As you said, this crisis concerns all of us, how could I stand by and watch? Besides, the orphanage has the director and Aqi and the others, plus the Third Hokage's help, it should be very safe there. And if I guessed correctly, it should be about time to take action against Danzo now! By then, they will be safer."
Minato didn't speak, just nodded, which was considered default. The two walked to the door, Minato stepped forward and knocked on the door, and Obito's voice came from inside: "Please come in, the door isn't locked!"
So Minato and Kabuto opened the door and walked in. Only Obito was left in the room, Rin had already left! But there was still food on the table, presumably prepared by Rin, and a bouquet of flowers was added to the head of Obito's bed. With Obito's personality, whether now or in the future, it was unlikely he would do such a thing, so it went without saying that it was also Rin's masterpiece.
Seeing Minato and Kabuto enter, Obito quickly sat up from the bed and greeted Minato. Although Obito was exhausted now, he was already able to get out of bed, just temporarily unable to do too intense training...
After finishing the salute, Obito focused his gaze on Kabuto. The current Kabuto was only about ten years old, and didn't have so many chakra cells gathered, so Obito couldn't recognize him for a moment.
Seeing Obito couldn't recognize himself, Kabuto smiled slightly, walked up and said: "Unexpectedly, we would meet again in this way. Obito."
Hearing this, Obito quickly filtered through his brain, then frowned and asked: "Are you Kabuto?"
"Unexpectedly, you still remember me, this comrade! Really rare," Kabuto said.
"How come you were also reborn?"
"Thanks to someone, just like you."
After finishing speaking, he found a stool, sat down, and then carefully checked Obito's body before saying:
"There's nothing big with the body now, just exhausted, rest for a while and it will be fine!"
"Tch, just like what Rin said, I say Kabuto, your ninjutsu hasn't regressed, has it?"
Rarely seeing his ally from the Fourth War, Uchiha Obito couldn't help but crack a joke.
Kabuto wasn't annoyed upon hearing this, just smiled, and then said: "Hehe, is that so! Then she doesn't know if she told you that your current physical condition is very poor. Because these two forced uses of Kamui have already caused too much burden on your body. In the long run, you might die before the Otsutsuki descend."
"Is it that serious?"
At this time, Minato, who had been keeping silent, finally spoke:
"Then does Kabuto have a way to solve it!"
"The method is actually very simple, as long as Obito transplants the First Hokage's cells. I remember in the memory world, he mastered the Mangekyo Sharingan thoroughly through this method, right? And transplanting the First's cells can make him master Yin-Yang Release, ensuring that he won't go blind in the future because of excessive use of the Sharingan, or die young like Uchiha Itachi because the burden of the Sharingan is too great, leading to his body collapsing."
Kabuto said.
"I thought so too, so this is also one of the reasons I requested to see Uchiha Madara. In my previous life, I transplanted the First's cells there."
Obito nodded in agreement with Kabuto's words!
"Then I advise you to give up on that idea! Uchiha Madara is a ruthless person; in the future world, he had already placed a Cursed Seal on your heart! He was plotting against you at every turn! If you go looking for him now, I think you're just in a hurry to die!"
Obito scratched his head awkwardly and said:
"I didn't mean to persuade him, I meant to let him stand completely on our side before asking him to help. There are very few people in the ninja world who can transplant the First's cells well, and the only one I can think of is him."
"I don't oppose you going to see him, but if it's to do something like transplanting the First's cells, I can help you. To tell you the truth, now in the ninja world, the ones who have the deepest research on the First's cells and the Sharingan should be me and Orochimaru-sama. The body that Uchiha Madara was resurrected with back then was all made by me."
Kabuto said confidently. Obito looked at Kabuto suspiciously and joked:
"Did you take the wrong medicine to be so actively helping me? I remember when we cooperated to fight the Fourth Shinobi World War, I remember you were stingy to death! Guarding against me in everything!"
A trace of memory flashed in Kabuto's eyes and he laughed:
"Although we were in a cooperative relationship back then, we were both using each other at that time, how could I sincerely help you?"
"Oh? It looks like a lot of things happened on your side back then too! Tell me about it, maybe I'll agree to be your lab rat if I'm happy."
Obito revealed a wicked smile! Since both of them were reborn, they found that the mistakes they made in the memory world hadn't happened yet, and everything could still be remedied~ Without so much pressure, their mentality unknowingly became younger and younger! If it were before, it would be good if they didn't calculate against each other when they met, how could they be joking like this now?
"A lot of things happened, I'm not like you, having no worries, dying and that's it."
Hearing this sentence, Obito couldn't help but roll his eyes at him. Kabuto pretended not to see and continued:
"After the Fourth Shinobi World War ended, I found out that someone had been looking for me, but like you, the mistake had already been made! So many people died, this isn't something that can be solved by one or two apologies!"
"I originally thought my second half of life would be spent in prison, but what I didn't expect was that some guy used his life to guarantee me. It was precisely because of this that I was spared from imprisonment, and later I returned to the orphanage and became the director!"
"Oh? Then your meaning now is to come out of the mountain again, oh no, it should be to come out of the orphanage," Obito laughed.
This time it was Kabuto's turn to roll his eyes at Obito! Continued: "Owed such a big favor to someone, how could I still stand by and watch?"
Although Obito and Kabuto didn't explicitly state the identity of this person, everyone tacitly knew who the other side was talking about.
"Sorry, let me interrupt your reminiscing for a moment."
At this time, Minato stood out and said:
"Regarding this matter of the First Hokage's cells, what ideas do you have, do you know where we can get them?"
"Regarding this matter of cells, Minato-sama, you can rest assured," Kabuto revealed a smile and continued: "The place with the most First Hokage cells in this world is Orochimaru-sama's research lab. Although Konoha should also have quite a few. But it should be very troublesome to find them. I think if it's Orochimaru-sama, knowing he is returning to Konoha! No matter what, he should bring a copy." ===== CHAPTER 28 =====
