Part Time Employee in Konoha (Completed)

Chapter 343: From start to finish…



The voice of Akihara Kagura was very gentle.

Even at this time, while Black Zetsu was nearly going mad, Akihara Kagura still seemed like a patient parent coaxing a child, as if afraid Black Zetsu would go astray!

However…

This was somewhat terrifying!

What kind of person could speak so gently, even saying tender words, but still make people feel a bit scared?

“This…”

Even Uzumaki Naruto, who was a bit slow, felt something was off: “Something doesn’t seem right... Kagura is always caring about Black Zetsu’s feelings?”

“That’s clearly mockery…”

Tobirama glared at Uzumaki Naruto, feeling that this kid was overly naive: “Akihara Kagura has always manipulated the entire ninja world and Black Zetsu, how could he be so kind-hearted to care about its feelings!”

Such a naive kid!

But this little guy called Uzumaki Naruto, the son of the Fourth Hokage, now seemed to have become the strongest force in the new generation of Konoha!

What’s happening with Konoha?

Either someone as manipulative as Akihara Kagura appears…

Or a simple-minded kid like Uzumaki Naruto…

All the spectators could hear Akihara Kagura’s mockery, and Black Zetsu felt like it was about to explode with rage. It had always manipulated the ninja world…

This world…

Was too false!

Black Zetsu did not want to endure this pain of being deceived!

False reality had actually descended upon it one day!

As the mastermind hidden behind the ninja world for thousands of years, Black Zetsu always believed the ninjas living in the ninja world were merely living in a false reality. When Kaguya Otsutsuki was revived and descended again, they would see the true world!

At this time…

It had become someone else’s plaything!

“You…”

“Who are you?”

Veins appeared on Kaguya Otsutsuki’s face as her Byakugan stared at the chakra pathway system inside Akihara Kagura, seeing the Ten-Tails inside him!

This question…

Not only did Kaguya Otsutsuki find it very curious…

But all the ninjas present were also curious.

If the records of the Hyuga clan were false, if Akihara Kagura was not a branch member of the Uchiha clan but an extraterrestrial being from legend, what was his purpose?

“Where should I start?”

Akihara Kagura raised his forehead again, as if he was at a loss for words, his brows gently furrowed: “When a certain creature appears, another creature capable of controlling its fate will also appear. Even beings as powerful as gods have those who can spy on them…”

Akihara Kagura’s gaze fell on Kaguya Otsutsuki: “Someone is greedy for this world, trying to use the God Tree to convert natural energy into chakra for their own.”

“……”

Kaguya Otsutsuki’s eyes lifted.

“Naturally, her chakra will also become prey.”

Akihara Kagura changed the topic, mentioning his own origins: “Because there are also those who can watch all of this unfold, observing the operations of those worlds. By chance, there may be opportunities to intervene and take what they want…”

“Prey…”

Everyone’s eyes turned to Kaguya Otsutsuki.

Because…

Only Kaguya Otsutsuki was the one sealed.

“Considering mother as prey…”

Black Zetsu’s heart was filled with anger and fear.

On one hand, it was angry that Akihara Kagura turned out to be a hunter, always watching Kaguya Otsutsuki. His purpose in coming here was to hunt Kaguya Otsutsuki!

On the other hand, it feared Akihara Kagura’s true intentions. He regarded Kaguya Otsutsuki’s chakra as prey, bringing immense trouble for his resurrected mother!

“!!!”

Kaguya Otsutsuki’s forehead twitched!

The nine tomoe Rinnegan on her forehead trembled!

“So…”

“Everything that happened in the ninja world…”

Black Zetsu’s body shrank suddenly, as if it imagined there were terrifying eyes watching it all along!

“Was it all within your observation?”

“No…”

Akihara Kagura slowly shook his head, speaking sincerely: “I only saw some interesting stories, some worth observing…”

As he said this, the corners of Akihara Kagura’s mouth lifted into a smile: “Black Zetsu, your story is undoubtedly the most interesting…”

“The clever thing is.”

“I also got an opportunity.”

“An opportunity to come to this planet and intervene.”

Akihara Kagura looked at Kaguya Otsutsuki before him, revealing a seemingly helpless and regretful smile: “It’s just a pity that my timing wasn’t very clever, the prey had already been sealed, and I could only find a way to unlock the sealed cage of the prey…”

“You…”

Black Zetsu glared at Akihara Kagura with gritted teeth!

At that time...

Both Kaguya and himself were targeted by Akihara Kagura!

"Hunting..."

Ignoring Black Zetsu, Akihara Kagura began to explain the concept of hunting to Kaguya, who frowned slightly, "It's a way for early humans to obtain food."

"It's a process that requires strength..."

"And also tests one's skills."

"If a hunter wants to capture timid prey like a rabbit, they must first make it gradually lower its guard and slowly step into the trap..."

"So..."

Akihara Kagura's gaze fell on Orochimaru as he began to speak of his own experiences, "I chose to integrate into this world to lower the prey's vigilance..."

"......"

Everyone's eyes were on Orochimaru.

"......"

Orochimaru's eyes narrowed slightly. He hadn't entered the Infinite Tsukuyomi, yet he was still being manipulated by Akihara Kagura!

Orochimaru had always known.

He was always a pawn for this bastard Akihara Kagura.

Akihara Kagura's identity had shifted from being a descendant of the Senju clan to a descendant of the Uchiha clan, and now to someone from another world...

No wonder this guy could master any technique so easily!

No wonder this guy could constantly set up various schemes because everything in the ninja world was under his surveillance!

"Orochimaru-sama."

Akihara Kagura looked at Orochimaru, smiling lightly as he spoke, "I must admit, even in the ninja world, there are geniuses like Orochimaru-sama who yearn for science..."

"Your science gave me direction..."

"In order to reasonably integrate into the ninja world..."

"In order to reasonably gain great power..."

"I found you, hidden in the darkness, and used a few simple methods to gain your trust, allowing you to help me transplant the cells of the ninja god Hashirama, thereby unlocking the power of Wood Release, and obtaining the power that can be reasonably used in the ninja world..."

"......"

Orochimaru's mouth twitched.

Back then, Akihara Kagura was indeed not a perfect lab assistant, but he had just defected from Konoha, and the experimental subjects captured couldn't match Akihara Kagura's level.

"At that time, I originally wanted to kill Orochimaru-sama..."

Akihara Kagura paused, then continued with a light smile, "But I found that Orochimaru-sama's identity was very useful. He could connect me with Konoha... because he was still colluding with the person I respected most in this ninja world."

"......"

Everyone present had a strange expression.

Those who had stayed in Root mostly knew who Akihara Kagura was talking about and what fate that person met...

One should say...

As expected of someone from another world...

He could even say this without guilt!

He could describe that most miserable old man as the person he respected most!

"Who is the person Kagura respects?"

Uzumaki Naruto asked hesitantly, frowning.

"Shimura Danzo..."

Uchiha Sasuke had to answer for his friend, and added, "However, Kagura forced Danzo to defect from Konoha and become a rogue ninja, and then used Danzo as a sacrifice for the Edo Tensei to revive the Third Hokage..."

Such a thing...

Just thinking about it feels a bit pitiful...

Shimura Danzo, who fought for Konoha almost his entire life, lost both his reputation and his life in his old age...

"I am very grateful to Danzo-sama..."

Akihara Kagura spread his hands, slowly closing his eyes, as if reminiscing about Danzo's lost anger and appearance, "Because Danzo-sama wanted to use me as a handy killing weapon, I was able to enter Konoha, enter the origin of everything..."

"......"

Tobirama's face twitched.

The long-dead Shimura Danzo wouldn't want your gratitude at all!

"Because of Danzo-sama, I encountered very interesting people..."

Akihara Kagura's gaze swept over Hatake Kakashi, who was lying on the sea, and he spoke softly, "This ninja world is more interesting than I imagined, with stories beyond just killing..."

"Of course..."

"The most crucial part..."

"I came into contact with the Eye of the Moon plan..."

Akihara Kagura's lips curved into a smile as he spoke of his regrets, "I always knew that Black Zetsu was the true mastermind behind the Eye of the Moon plan. Unfortunately, Black Zetsu never wanted to reveal his true identity..."

"Even when I revived Uchiha Madara, he still wanted to exist in the world through Uchiha Madara's will. I guessed that Black Zetsu wanted to use Uchiha Madara as a sacrifice to revive Kaguya Otsutsuki, which coincided with my own plans..."

"However..."

Akihara Kagura's tone suddenly lowered, and a sinister smile appeared on his face, "Madara's personality is a bit too arrogant. He might consider me irrelevant and kick me out of the Eye of the Moon plan, causing my plan to revive the prey to fail..."

"So..."

Black Zetsu's voice became angry, recalling the contents recorded on that piece of Senju bark, he gritted his teeth and said, "You forged the Senju bark, forcing Uchiha Madara and me to split, and made me believe that Hagoromo still had a backup plan..."

"Similarly..."

"You also wanted to use Madara as a sacrifice…”

Black Zetsu's voice became hoarse again: "But you cannot ensure that the power you reveal will defeat the ever-growing Madara..."

"And once you reveal too much power, it will arouse my suspicion..."

"So you forged a wooden tag from the Hyuga clan, creating an elaborate story in public, allowing you to justifiably use the power of the Mangekyo Sharingan..."

Even at this moment...

Black Zetsu had to admit that Akihara Kagura's fabricated past was extremely brilliant...

Because at that time, the ninjas present all believed the history recorded on the Hyuga clan's wooden tag. The minor flaws in it concealed Akihara Kagura's grand conspiracy!

This man...

Revealed his Mangekyo Sharingan at that time...

He even fabricated an almost flawless reason for the birth of his Mangekyou Sharingan, showing everyone the terrifying nature of Akihara Kagura and his ancestors with his eternal Mangekyo Sharingan!

However...

It was all fake!

"Black Zetsu, you guessed correctly."

Akihara Kagura clapped his hands and laughed, praising Black Zetsu's wisdom: "The only use of that wooden tag was to help me forge an Uchiha lineage, allowing me to justifiably use the Sharingan's eye technique, making you believe that I am a hidden Uchiha, not some so-called outsider..."

"Before that day..."

"The entire ninja world was terrified of my attempt to destroy the ninja world..."

"In order to stop me from destroying and recreating the ninja world, all ninjas gathered together, their chakra becoming the nourishment for Kaguya's resurrection..."

"And after that day..."

Akihara Kagura's smile suddenly became radiant, as if finally speaking of his pride: "The hunter with the sharp blade finally had the chance to approach his prey, and the prey's will even chose to trust the hunter's goodwill, willingly offering itself up..."

"......"

Uzumaki Naruto's teeth were chattering.

As for Haruno Sakura, she was even more terrified, trembling beside Tsunade!

"What a flawless plan..."

Orochimaru took a deep breath, his heart not as terrified as Black Zetsu, yet still feeling a sense of trepidation: "Even someone hearing this story from the outside would feel a chill down their spine..."

"This guy..."

Tobirama glanced at Kaguya Otsutsuki and the Black Zetsu in her sleeve: "Using over ten years to set up a series of interconnected schemes, making the progenitor of chakra his prey, silently leading Black Zetsu into the trap without him realizing it..."

Akihara Kagura...

Truly the most terrifying hunter in this world!

Even the best hunters in the ninja world couldn't have devised such a meticulous plan as Akihara Kagura!

To be honest...

Even if they were in Black Zetsu's position...

They might have also fallen into Akihara Kagura's trap...

Everyone couldn't help but look at Akihara Kagura!

Everyone present felt an overwhelming fear as if they were on the edge of an abyss!

"......"

Black Zetsu was still regretful and angry at his short-sightedness!

He...

Did not notice any flaws at that time!

But how could he have noticed any flaws back then?

The ancestor fabricated by Akihara Kagura was not a powerful Uchiha, nor the reincarnation of Indra's chakra. Why would he even think to check that, especially when he was shocked by the supposed terror of Akihara Kagura's lineage of Uchiha!

At that time...

He was also angry at Uchiha Madara's betrayal, and delighted that Akihara Kagura voluntarily took his place as his pawn!

But...

This pawn...

Was actually the true master of the game!

He himself was the pawn that fell into the trap on the chessboard!

As for the rest of the story, there's no need to elaborate...

Because Black Zetsu trusted Akihara Kagura and did not doubt that Akihara Kagura was an extraterrestrial enemy, he entrusted the Eye of the Moon plan to Akihara Kagura...

As a result...

It was all too late!

Everything in the ninja world fell completely under Akihara Kagura's control!

Uchiha Madara, in order to resist Akihara Kagura's destruction of the ninja world, absorbed the chakra of the ninja world and became the sacrifice for Kaguya's resurrection. Akihara Kagura successfully revived Kaguya Otsutsuki, the prey he sought...

Kaguya Otsutsuki looked nervous; how could this man named Akihara Kagura be more terrifying than the Otsutsuki clan!

Black Zetsu was filled with fear, not daring to speak to Kaguya Otsutsuki, all because he fell into the trap leading to the current situation!

"Now..."

"This long hunt has finally reached its end..."

Akihara Kagura's voice became gentle, softly sighing at his hard work: "The prey has escaped the cage that imprisoned and protected her, and the hunter has finally reached the moment of harvest..."

"To think... I am treated as prey..."

Kaguya Otsutsuki's expression showed a hint of nervousness!

At this moment, Kaguya Otsutsuki, disregarding everything, directly raised her hands towards Akihara Kagura!

Two gray bones shot out from her palms, suddenly flying towards Akihara Kagura!

In this tense moment, Kaguya Otsutsuki decisively used her most terrifying bloodline ability, the All-Killing Ash Bones, a lethal strike from the progenitor of chakra!
