章節 86: Chapter 86 The Master of Breaking Defenses
Fortunately, Naruto had enough sleep during the day, so he didn't feel sleepy even after staying up most of the night.
Hiding quietly in the dark, Naruto dared not make a sound. It was not until the middle of the night when he heard a quarrel from the neighboring inn that he suddenly opened his eyes.
Relying on his skills of climbing walls and climbing roofs that are more proficient than a peeper, Naruto slid down the slanted roof with ease.
As he approached the edge of the roof, he flattened himself against the wall like a puddle of water, using Chakra to minimize any sound.
After crossing the balcony between two buildings, Naruto leaped and hung onto the window of another inn.
Nothing in this world goes smoothly. It was all about careful planning. He had already mapped out the infiltration route a day earlier during his casual stroll.
Quietly opening the window, Naruto slipped into the room.
The lights were on in the room, but there was no sound. Tsunade's personal secretary, Shizune, fainted on the futon.
Kato Shizune is the niece of Kato Dan, who is known as cannon fodder version of Minato. Kato Dan pursued Tsunade but was not able to enjoy it before he died on the battlefield during the Second Shinobi World War.
Whether it was due to some Shinobi's dark humor or deliberate revenge...
The attack had been brutal and targeted, with Kato Dan's entire kidney removed.
It seemed to be another case of robbing beauty.
Fortunately, Shizune was a compliant person. Abducted by Tsunade since childhood, she had been shuffled through various casinos and kept as a maid. Years of hardship had made her exceptionally resilient to any situation.
Naruto shook Shizune's limp form but got no response.
As basin of cold water was poured on her face, Shizune jolted awake. She sat up straight from the futon and recognized Naruto at a glance.
She didn't care how Naruto got in, and quickly grabbed Naruto's hand and spoke anxiously, "Quick! Where's Jiraiya-sama? Tsunade-sama went to find Orochimaru alone!"
…
"He's here."
In a nearby tavern, Jiraiya was sprawled on a table, fast asleep.
Shizune and Naruto exchanged looks. Naruto went over and nudged the sleeping Jiraiya, while Shizune dipped a finger in Jiraiya's sake glass and smelled it.
"It looks like he won't wake up anytime soon." Naruto said.
"It's a sleeping drug Tsunade-sama used." Shizune frowned, "At this point, we can only do what we can do."
Naruto was horrified as he watched Shizune grit her teeth and pull out a scalpel.
"Shizune-san, this could be dangerous, right?"
"It's just to draw some blood to wake him up faster. There's no time to make an antidote." Shizune said anxiously, "Tsunade-sama is in danger. If we don't hurry…"
Naruto was convinced and stepped out of the way, then nodded, "Please increase the intensity."
After a while, Jiraiya woke up weakly, surveying his surroundings with a pale face.
"Shizune, is that you?"
"How did I end up here sleeping? I was just drinking with Tsunade…"
Naruto remained silent on the side.
After Tsunade had parted ways with him, she had gone to drug Jiraiya. It was still dark, and theoretically, if they rushed now, they might still make it in time.
Shizune didn't have time to explain further. She only urged, "We need to leave now. We'll discuss the rest on the way."
Jiraiya, weakened from the drug Tsunade had given him and the bloodletting performed by Shizune, looked pale and exhausted as they rushed to the battlefield.
"Hey, Pervy Sage, you're looking really pale?"
"Shut up, you brat."
"Pervy Sage, you are bleeding."
"It's just a minor injury." Jiraiya said, but he stopped mid-sentence, panting heavily and leaning against a tree, "You guys go first and leave a mark on the way." Jiraiya said while panting, "I don't have much Chakra in my body, and I won't be able to help if I go now."
"Hold on, and wait for me to come over."
Shizune frowned, hesitated for a while, and then gritted her teeth and agreed.
It wasn't long before Shizune, clutching the pig, Tonton, used her keen sense of smell to locate Tsunade's whereabouts.
"It's just ahead!"
A loud rumbling sound was heard not far away. Without needing further explanation from Shizune, Naruto could tell the direction from the numerous craters Tsunade's fight had created on the plain.
"Tsunade-sama!!"
Shizune rushed to the rescue, shooting poison needles from her wrist to drive away Kabuto, who was about to attack Tsunade. Tsunade's body was stained with blood, and at this moment, she was sitting on the ground, trembling with a terrified expression on her face.
'Hemophobia.'
'With such a troublesome condition, she still dare to come out and fight alone.'
While complaining in his heart, Naruto followed behind Shizune and pulled out the sword from the seal space. He wasn't used to kunai and preferred a sword. He's the holder of the belief, 'The longer the blade, the stronger it was.'
It is known that a Samurai from the Land of Iron could interrupt a Shinobi's hand seals if they were fast enough.
Naruto wasn't that fast yet, but he could still disrupt people's hand seals. So he drew his sword and without saying a word, he seamlessly followed the rhythm of the poison needles Shizune had fired.
Not giving Kabuto a chance to breathe, Naruto struck with his sword like a crescent moon. Kabuto barely managed to block the strike with his kunai.
Green Chakra was swirling in his other hand, which seemed to be the Chakra Scalpel Technique.
This is an advanced Medical Ninjutsu that uses Chakra to transform into a scalpel capable of cutting through muscle and blood vessels without causing visible injury. However, even the most skilled Medical-nin couldn't cut deeply in the middle of a battle.
The sharper the blade, the thinner it was, and the more prone it was to breaking, so the user need to be more careful and focused.
But Naruto wouldn't give Kabuto the chance. Strictly speaking, Kabuto is just using a blunt knife that can only cut the surface layers of muscle to incapacitate the target.
"Kyubi."
Through the gap in Naruto's raised arm, he saw Kabuto's mocking and sinister face. The round lenses of his glasses reflected light slightly.
During the Chunin Exams, Kabuto had tried to get close to Team 7, but was disrupted by Naruto. As a specialist in intelligence, Kabuto naturally knew about Naruto's past and deliberately called him Kyubi to provoke Naruto.
But Kabuto would never have expected that Naruto, a person from another world, is equally aware of Kabuto's background, and harbored ill intentions as well.
Kabuto was originally an orphan, and was later adopted by the Konoha Orphanage. However, due to his congenital nearsightedness, Konoha had no money for glasses to give an orphan.
The glasses on his face were given to him by the Orphanage's director and his most important guardian, Yakushi Nono. Later, that gentle woman died miserably at Kabuto's hands.
What's even more heartbreaking is that until the end, Nono didn't recognize Kabuto.
With nothing left to his name, the only thing Kabuto treasured was those glasses.
Naruto has no conscience, so he naturally will not let go of such a great opportunity. As they clashed, Naruto's expression grew increasingly mocking, and his sarcasm was higher than that of Kabuto Yakushi.
"Your glasses are so ugly, Nono."
Almost instantly, Kabuto's defenses were completely shattered, and the painful memories he wished to forget surged to the forefront of his mind.
"Die!"
The green Chakra Scalpel surged at this moment, and Kabuto almost went crazy.

章節 87: Chapter 87 Having Been Drenched by Rain, I Excel at Ruining Others' Umbrellas
Seeing Kabuto's mental defenses break down, Naruto swiftly retreated, bending his knees to jump back three times in a row.
Kabuto, successfully provoked by Naruto, was nearly driven mad. At one point, he had a gentle light in his life, someone who was more important to him than even a mother, Yakushi Nono, the Orphanage's director.
But he didn't know that Nono was the former top intelligence gathering officer of the Root, known as the 'Wandering Miko'. She had only become the Orphanage's director after withdrawing from the Root.
Because Kabuto was too outstanding, he had caught the eye of Danzo at a very young age and was dragged into the Root.
Nono could only learn about Kabuto's condition through photos as she was not allowed to see him in person.
Danzo seized this flaw and started to make trouble. By slowly replacing Kabuto's photos, he gradually erased Nono's memory of the real Kabuto's appearance.
In the end, Nono completely mistook someone else for Kabuto, forgetting what the real Kabuto looked like.
So when she received the mission to assassinate Kabuto Nono felt no emotional turmoil. She didn't know how the real Kabuto looked like, and Kabuto also didn't know that the person who assassinated him was Nono, so he killed her instead.
Kabuto was originally an orphan who had lost his memories. It was Nono who had given him a name, warmth, and a sense of self. But in the end, Nono didn't recognize him, even at the moment of her death.
The last person in the world who remembered his existence died, and he lost his true self as well.
"Nono doesn't remember you at all. Isn't that ironic? Your existence has no meaning, no one cares whether you live or die."
As Naruto dodged Kabuto's attacks, he taunted him with a mocking expression, each word cutting deeper into Kabuto's heart. He had no intention of guiding people toward the light. Instead, every word was a silent, devastating blow.
"Shut up!"
Kabuto snarled with a ferocious look on his face, and the Chakra Scalpel in his hand gathered into a short whip, and he aggressively pursued Naruto.
"You have nothing and nowhere to go."
Naruto continued his verbal assault, moving more fluidly with each step, his sword strikes becoming increasingly precise. Kabuto's attacks grew wild and uncoordinated as he desperately tried to kill Naruto, his sanity slipping away with each reckless strike.
"Shut up!"
The air rippled with warmth as Kabuto's Chakra Scalpel slashed through it. Naruto knew better than to let his guard down. After all, a single hit could sever his tendons or ligaments.
Kabuto's speed was overwhelming, forcing Naruto to abandon forming hand seals altogether.
Naruto dodged step by step, continuously provoking Kabuto's nerves. Jiraiya hadn't arrived yet, Tsunade had already lost her combat power, and Shizune couldn't handle Orochimaru on her own.
"If you can't find your own identity, then just rob it from someone else!" Kabuto rolled over and swung a Chakra chainsaw-like at Naruto.
"What a joke! Then go ahead and rob it!" Naruto slashed at the chainsaw, bringing the two of them face to face once more. Through the narrow gap, they locked eyes, both gritting their teeth with menacing smiles.
On the other side, Shizune had already started fighting with Orochimaru in order to protect Tsunade.
Naruto silently prayed in his heart that the Pervy Sage would come to the rescue quickly, all while missing the timely rescues that Sasuke used to deliver.
"People like you, who have a name and identity, will never understand the despair of someone like me, who is completely blank." Bloodshot suddenly appeared in Kabuto's eyes, and his gaze was vicious.
"Uzumaki Naruto!" He panted heavily, like a wild beast, "Do you know what it feels like to kill yourself with your own hands? I am nothing."
"Names are just marks, and glasses are tools. You're right! From the start, I was nothing, I had nothing!"
"Heh." Naruto's face was equally ferocious, "What disgusting nonsense are you spewing? If your life has no meaning, then just die already!"
"You think I'd feel sorry for you? I'd kill you right now and spit on your grave. You think you've figured something out? If you have anything to say, save it for Nono!"
But Nono was dead, so who could Kabuto possibly talk to?
Kabuto didn't know how Naruto knew all this, but at this moment, Kabuto had no time to think, as his anger had overwhelmed his reason.
Naruto was fighting like a madman, showing no regard for consequences, as if he didn't care about the consequences.
If he couldn't have it, he'd destroy it, no redemption, no mercy. In the life-and-death struggle, why should he care who was more pitiful? Only the living has the right to spit on their enemy's grave.
Kabuto's life had been completely stolen by Danzo through despicable means. And until her last breath, Nono still believed that Kabuto was still living safely in Konoha.
Death is a constant, and so is tragedy.
But the world is not fake, the warmth of a loved one is real, and all Naruto wanted was to take it easy.
So, he said the most venomous thing he could to Kabuto.
"Have you ever wondered why it wasn't you who died that day?"
With a roar, Kabuto broke down completely, screaming in agony.
"Shut up! I'm going to kill you!!"
"KILL YOU, UZUMAKI NARUTO!!!"
"Bring it on!!" Naruto's neck veins bulged as he shouted back, refusing to back down. Lava Release Chakra instantly covered his blade, "Why did Nono raise something like you?"
It was so dirty. Naruto once again demonstrated the most shining quality in Shinobi duels, his flexible moral bottom line.
A child who has been drenched by rain is the best at ruining other people's umbrellas.
He knew exactly what could instantly crush a person's spirit, what could utterly destroy their beliefs.
With his blade engulfed in flames, Naruto charged at Kabuto like a young cheetah, and the molten lava completely scorched the blade red. Kabuto's Chakra Scalpel screeched as it aimed straight for Naruto's heart.
But Naruto's combat instincts were astonishingly sharp. In an instant, it was as if the whole world slowed down. The sound of wind, the hum of Shizune's poison needles slicing through the air, the chakra scalpel, all of it seemed to be infinitely magnified in his eyes.
In that split second, Naruto's leg muscles exploded with power, making him jerk violently like a leaf caught in a hurricane. Just like a movie tape being stuck, a black and white picture flashed by with a sizzling sound.
The high-speed twitching allowed Naruto to miraculously dodge the Chakra Scalpel. He had already reached into Kabuto's side. Then, without any hesitation, he swung his molten blade.
Kabuto's pupils dilated as the molten blade sliced into his right ribs. Fortunately, he activated Yin Healing Wound Destruction just in time. Before his right side was attacked, he mobilized his cells to heal in advance.
In this way, the cells that are constantly being destroyed and the cells that are constantly healing are intertwined together crazily, making it look like he was rapidly healing from his injuries.
This Ninjutsu is similar to Tsunade's Creation Rebirth and can be considered an exquisite Ninjutsu.
At the same time, the blade in Naruto's hand could not withstand the high temperature and broke. Kabuto's eyes narrowed, and a wicked grin spread across his face as his Chakra Scalpel surged.
In that instant…
Naruto casually threw away the broken Ninja Sword in his hand. Then, while Kabuto almost doubted his own eyes, a brand new Ninja Sword suddenly appeared in his hand!!!
