This ti, without wasting any ti, Kuroto entered the main building of the Ninja Academy and soon arrived at the faculty office.
The arrival of Kuroto was noticed by the teaching staff, and as he entered the staff room, the mbers of faculty hurriedly got up, respectfully greeted him, and introduced themselves.
Kuroto nodded to each of them one by one as he observed all of his subordinates.
‘All of them are low-level Chunin… But I suppose this is not strange…’ he thought.
Because the teaching staff doesn’t have to directly confront the enemy shinobi, as such, generally, low-level Chunin are made the teachers of the academy.
And there is nothing strange with it either, to provide basic education to all the trainees in different aspects of Shinobi Arts, low-level chunin are more than enough, as for the further training, that is the responsibility of higher-ranked shinobi.
After getting a basic idea of their strength, Kuroto noticed several familiar faces… One is Umino Iruka, while the other one is Mizuki, the presence of these two is also not so surprising… But what made Kuroto completely taken aback is that––a face that shouldn’t be here by any ans––is also present in the faculty room…
And it was none other than, ‘Kabuto? What is he doing here? What on earth does Orochimaru-sama want to do by sending him here?’
Kuroto couldn’t figure this out.
Currently, Shimura Danzo is the temporary Hokage Agent of Konoha, he has enough power to revoke Kuroto from his position as the principal of the Ninja Academy, so, inserting an insider in the Konoha Academy is not at all a problem for him.
But Kuroto couldn’t understand the reason why Danzo bothered to insert Kabuto in the Ninja Academy, after all, Danzo should be very clear about Kabuto’s identity and his loyalty.
Other than Danzo’s purpose, Kuroto is also very curious about Kabuto’s purpose, why would Kabuto of all people choose to beco a mber of the teaching staff of the Konoha ninja academy?
Although curious, Kuroto decided to suppress his doubts for the ti being, as such, he chose not to confront Kabuto while the other mbers of the teaching staff are also present.
He then gave a few brief instructions to faculty mbers, then turned around and left the staff room.
After exiting the faculty room, Kuroto paid attention behind him… if he isn’t wrong, then Kabuto will likely co to him, and as he expected, Kabuto followed him…
After walking for a while and coming to an area where they wouldn’t attract much attention, Kuroto stood silently, waiting for Kabuto.
Kabuto didn’t make him wait too long and soon arrived.
After making sure that no one except Kuroto was present in the surroundings, he greeted Kuroto in quite a cheerful manner, “Kuroto-senpai, we et again.”
Considering the attitude with which Kabuto greeted him, Kuroto frowned… Kuroto is very clear of the fact that Kabuto doesn’t like him very much, therefore, such a greeting is impossible to co from Kabuto…
He stared at the other party and asked bluntly, “What are you doing in Konoha? And what is your purpose at the academy?”
“Hey now Kuroto-senpai, you shouldn’t ask such secrets so bluntly, moreover, even if you asked, I wouldn’t tell you… besides, even if I did tell you, it would put you in a difficult position, and you might not be able to continue your duty without offending Orochimaru-sama, which I don’t think you want to risk…” Kabuto said playfully, his face seed quite confident that Kuroto can’t force him…
Kuroto narrowed his eyes, the very next instant his figure disappeared from his position, grabbed Kabuto by the neck, and before the other party could react, Kabuto was pinned on the wall by Kuroto…
After pinning Kabuto on the wall, Kuroto released intense killing intent and coldly whispered in Kabuto’s ears, “The next ti you dare to play around in front of , it won’t stop here… and you will regret ever standing in front of … understand?”
“You?!” Kabuto was taken aback by Kuroto’s sudden move, he didn’t expect that the other party would really dare to act against him…
What shocked Kabuto more is the cold killing intent that Kuroto released, it was like facing a bottomless valley…
And when Kuroto warned him, Kabuto knew that the other party wasn’t just bluffing, Kuroto would really dare to do what he said, without any regard to the consequences…
Realizing the situation, Kabuto imdiately put away his disrespectful tone, and sincerely apologized, I-… I understand, please forgive , Kuroto-sama!”
Kuroto nodded slightly, “You are forgiven for now!” then without releasing his hold, he added, “What exactly your purpose is in Konoha and at the academy, I couldn’t care less… but while I am the Principal of the Ninja Academy, this school is my territory, and in my territory, you are not allowed to ss around or do anything that would defa or put in a difficult position… do you understand? Because if you don’t, I have more than enough experience in the Anbu to make you understand it the hard way…”
“Y… yes!” Kabuto nodded repeatedly.
“What do you understand?” asked Kuroto.
“I… I won’t do anything that would put you in a difficult position.” Answered Kabuto.
“I am glad that you understand things fast because if you hadn’t you would have to experience a lifeti of torture in an instant…” said Kuroto, then added, “Make note that if you ignore my words, it would an fate far worse than death for you… And I won’t hesitate just because it might remotely offend Orochimaru-sama.”
Kabuto didn’t understand what Kuroto ant by ‘lifeti of torture in an instant’ but he didn’t have the intention of finding out the aning… So, all he did was nod as Kuroto released him.
“Good, now, you may go… While you are a mber of the teaching staff, you are my subordinate… so do your job, else you will be fired.” Kuroto said these last words and then walked away without giving Kabuto any glance.
As Kuroto walked away, Kabuto breathes a sigh of relief…
‘Looks like I really can’t offend him… otherwise, completing the mission won’t be possible.’ thought Kabuto as he watched Kuroto’s back… ‘Well, he doesn’t care about my purpose anyway, so as long as I don’t interfere in anything he is doing, he won’t stop … at least this is good news.’
Kabuto’s purpose behind becoming a mber of the faculty is quite simple… One to keep watch over Uchiha Sasuke, obviously… after all, Uchiha Sasuke is Orochimaru’s target, so by remaining closer to Sasuke, they have a better chance of capturing Uchiha Sasuke…
But this is just the primary purpose, the other more important purpose is to observe Uzumaki Naruto up close and collect information about Senjutsu and Sennin Mode.
After studying Jugo’s body for years, Orochimaru was already aware of the secrets of the Natural energy, then his contract with the Ryuchi Cave gave him further information about the Senjutsu and the Sennin Mode, but because his physique was not suitable for Sennin Mode, so he was never able to experience it… And since he has never been able to watch and study anyone using Senjutsu from up close, true understanding of Senjutsu is still a mystery for him.
With Naruto’s success in mastering the Sennin Mode, this opportunity ca close, however, they had to return Naruto to Konoha so Orochimaru lost the opportunity to collect and extract enough information that would help him master Senjutsu.
Orochimaru didn’t want to let go of this opportunity…
Therefore, he used this opportunity and used his contract with Shimura Danzo to make Kabuto a mber of the teaching staff to kill two birds with one kunai, and that’s why Kabuto is here.
It’s just that neither Orochimaru nor Kabuto expected that Kuroto will beco the principal of the academy, so, they will have to be careful.
