The Thousand Faces of Konoha's Weird Man

25Anbu’s new life

"The above is the content of my report for this month." It's the day of the monthly routine report again, but Danzo is not seen today. Only Yakushi Kabuto appears in front of his eyes, and even the one who has been busy brushing up on his presence For the first time, Kisuke and Kisuke did not appear in the room, pretending to "authenticate" the authenticity of the contents of his report, which made Saki feel a strange atmosphere.

Could something have happened? He had obviously done well before, but today's report was indeed mixed with a lot of water. A trace of panic crept into Zoji's mind, "If nothing happens, can I left."

"You've already found out."

"What did you find?" Zoji was ready to continue pretending to be stupid. Most of the stupid people were deceived. This kind of low-level mistake should not be made. As the saying goes, "If you confess, you will be lenient, and you will go to jail; if you resist, you will be punished strictly, and you will go home for the New Year." Unless Yakushi Kabuto really has some evidence against him, Sakichi will not admit anything he has done.

"Today is really a good day." It's hard to read anything useful from the smiling tiger's face. No matter when he is deceiving people, sensationalizing, or killing people, he is always smiling.

"I don't know what you're talking about," Saki frowned. He just wanted to get away from Kabuto, the pharmacist who was thinking about his left and right, as soon as possible. "I know the road here, so I won't bother Kabuto-senpai to send him there." ”

"You are such an impatient young man." He fished out a document from somewhere, and Yakushi Kabuto threw it to Sakichi with some boredom. "This is your new identity. Get familiar with him as soon as possible. In addition, in order to make you better Complete the task of root delivery and we will give you some training.”

"Training, but this is different from what we agreed. What's more, isn't my mission just to monitor Moonlight Hayate? I think my current ability is enough for the job."

"This is what Elder Danzo meant." Kabuto Yakushi's words without texture and hardness crushed Sakichi's objections. "Or maybe it's the result of you trying to disobey orders."

It has to be said that humans are the most adaptable creatures, bar none. Human beings' ability to adjust their mentality is the best among all living things. At least these four months are enough to make Zoji's heart change a lot. The most intuitive change is that he changed his "root" from the very beginning. The fearful attitude of a tiger turned into a feeling of "it's not that scary". As long as we can survive, human beings can always position themselves correctly.

Now Sakichi regards "root" as his own company, and what he does is "work". You pay my salary, and I work for you, an equal exchange. This mode of thinking not only makes it easier for Zoji to enter the state, but also makes it easier to "persuade" himself on a moral level.

To give a more vivid example, a baby who has been pampered at home for more than ten years can become an extremely self-disciplined soldier after several months of training in the army. This is an intuitive reflection of the effect of the environment on people. There is potential to be tapped.

Besides, isn't it necessary to conduct some pre-job training before taking up the job? Zoji secretly calmed his restless heart.

After all, he didn't have the ability to resist the behemoth Gen. When he couldn't resist, lying down and spreading his legs was the best way to avoid being hurt.

"I understand." Although he was reluctant, Zoji was still ready to take a look and say, "So, when will my training start?"

"Now"

"Now" Zoji really wanted to say that I haven't brushed my teeth or washed my face. Can you give me a few days to prepare before making such a joke?

Obviously, the "anxious" Kabuto Yakushi would not be so kind: "Go out and turn left. In the training room, you will see your instructor. I hope you can get along with him very happily."

"All right"

It seemed that there was more than one person who wanted to ravage him, so he opened his mouth obediently and hoped that a third person wouldn't appear. It didn't feel good to be ripped open from behind.

"Remember to put this on." Yakushi Kabuto was very satisfied with Saki's performance and threw him a cat-face mask. Even in this building, Saki had never seen this guy take off his cat-face mask. The only chance for his true appearance was on that nameless beach. "Unless you want your brother to know that you are currently working for the ANBU."

Roots belong to the dark side, but the dark side includes more than just roots.

People's values ​​​​will never be unified, even in Konoha or even the ninja world. Some people are willing to stand in the sun and accept the most brutal exposure, while others are willing to stand in the shadows and spend their lives relaxing. The sensitive identity of Anbu is not something worth bragging about, because entering Anbu does not mean how strong you are. Of course, some people do enter Anbu for this reason.

There is a misunderstanding that ANBU ninjas are very powerful and deserve people's fear and respect. For example, Itachi Uchiha and Kakashi Hatake. This in itself is a wrong understanding and reverses cause and effect. They are feared because of their strength, which has nothing to do with their position and status. In this world where the jungle prevails, people will be respected if they have strength. It is because of their outstanding strength that they are entrusted with the important tasks of the top ANBU.

The structure of the ANBU organization is the same as that of most ninjas, with mediocre ninjas accounting for the vast majority. They are engaged in dirty work such as intelligence collection, surveillance, stealing and collecting general intelligence, and even burying corpses and cleaning up battlefields. Will people who do these things every day be respected? Obviously not. Most people actually don't have a good impression of ANBU. The reason why ANBU wears masks is not only to ensure the safety of themselves and their families, but also to ensure their normal life. Anyone who lives next to such a neighbor who likes to gossip will feel uncomfortable, even if he is not planning to make big news.

Therefore, people who work in high-risk jobs like ANBU generally have two identities. For example, the young lady from the Inuzuka family, even her younger brother, doesn't know that she is an ANBU working for the third generation. Here, most of the people Saki met also used nicknames such as passwords. For example, Kisuke, this nickname that sounded like it was not his real name, was his identity in ANBU. Of course, there are also guys like Aburame Shiguro and Yamafaze who have openly defected to Danzo and don't bother to hide their identities.

Of course, Zoji doesn't want his brother to know what he has done. Although the relationship between the brothers is not very good, they still meet each other without looking up. The two of them still have to get along for a long time, and he is not prepared to make the relationship too tense. . Naturally, he didn't want his brother to know about his identity through other channels, so he honestly picked up the mask and put it on.

"Your identity, name, habits and background are all in the document. Look carefully and don't make any mistakes."

"Okay," for players who have received nine years of compulsory education, memorizing something is not a problem. Saki felt that he could read all of these thin pages before arriving at the training ground, "Then after training I will It’s not about carrying out the mission given by Elder Danzo.”

"Maybe, maybe not, who knows?" Kabuto Yakushi had already left his seat after finishing everything. He seemed to have thought of something when he was about to retreat into the inner room. Then he turned his face and told Sakichi solemnly, "One thing you need to remember is that the infirmary is on the right side of this building. Don't try too hard. If you feel uncomfortable, go get checked as soon as possible."

"Hmm" What does this mean? Isn't it just training? Why does it feel like you will be beaten to death?
