Part Time Employee in Konoha

Chapter 49: The man Behind the Nine-Tails Rebellion

The wooden spike's sneak attack was perfectly timed!

This was precisely the trap set by Akihara Kagura!

The wooden spike thrown by Akihara Kagura was aimed at the moment when the mysterious masked man, using a spacetime vortex, released his body and couldn't resist!

The mysterious masked man looked down at the wooden spike piercing his body, his voice somewhat muffled: "I thought I would never be hurt in this false world again"

How long had it been since he was last injured?

Was the last time during the Nine-Tails' disturbance?

The last time he was injured, he wanted to kill the father of Uzumaki Naruto who was behind him. This time, he got injured while trying to protect this little guy, Uzumaki Naruto, behind him.

This world is so false that it feels ironic.

The mysterious masked man naturally thought he was protecting Uzumaki Naruto, keeping the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki from being killed, ensuring that nothing unexpected happens to the Eye of the Moon Plan.

"Wood Release: Piercing Spike Technique!"

Akihara Kagura raised his finger!

The wooden spike inside the mysterious masked man's body suddenly grew!

A bizarre scene unfolded, the growing wooden spike did not harm the mysterious masked man's body, and even suddenly fell to the ground from inside him.

The mysterious masked man's body had just become transparent and dematerialized!

This is the mysterious masked man's spacetime dojutsu, which can place his body inside an alternative space, avoiding harm in the real world!

"Strange technique... and the Sharingan!"

Akihara Kagura's gaze shifted to the Mangeky Sharingan revealed by the mysterious masked man, his expression gradually turning cold: "A member of the Uchiha clan, reveal your identity, why are you sneaking around here in the middle of the night!"

"No need to know who I am."

The mysterious masked man looked at Akihara Kagura, speaking coldly: "I am here just to prevent the blond kid behind me from being killed"

How can this kid have the audacity to ask such a question!

His own appearance here was because of this crazy kid!

To frame the murderer, he even thought about killing Konoha's Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. A Konoha ANBU ninja, more extreme than himself, an enemy of Konoha!

"How did you know someone wanted to kill Uzumaki Naruto"

Akihara Kagura's eyes narrowed slightly, staring intently at the mysterious masked man, as if trying to see the secrets hidden in him: "Even I, a member of the ANBU, don't know about this"

"Oh? You don't know?"

The questioning voice of the mysterious masked man was somewhat chilling.

If it weren't for you, this little kid suddenly wanting to kill the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, how could I possibly have revealed my identity and rushed over here? What on earth is Hatake Kakashi, that bastard, doing? How could he leave such a dangerous kid in the Anbu!

"Now I know!"

"I am from Konoha Anbu, and I will protect him!"

"You are the one who wants to harm Naruto, aren't you?"

Akihara Kagura sneered and suddenly shouted loudly: "Uzumaki Naruto, quickly come behind me, this guy might be an enemy!"

"Huh?"

Uzumaki Naruto was a bit confused.

Undoubtedly, in Uzumaki Naruto's mind, Akihara Kagura was definitely one of their own. The little blond quickly ran towards Akihara Kagura.

"Don't go over there!"

The mysterious masked man threw a black rod with his hand, stopping Uzumaki Naruto's action: "Uzumaki Naruto, don't get close to that guy, he wants to kill you!"

"An invader slandering the Konoha Anbu?"

"Has this world become too absurd?"

Akihara Kagura quickly controlled a vine that sprouted from the ground, which swiftly reached for Uzumaki Naruto, seemingly trying to protect him!

"This false world has always existed, it's absurd in itself!"

The mysterious masked man instantly appeared beside Uzumaki Naruto and kicked him away from the vine, sending the little blond flying backward!

The mysterious masked man did not trust Akihara Kagura!

Ain't no way.

In an instant!

Uzumaki Naruto saw the mask of the mysterious masked man!

A hint of red appeared in Uzumaki Naruto's eyes, and a violent surge of crimson chakra instantly enveloped his body, coating him in a chakra cloak!

Uzumaki Naruto, with a fierce look, seemingly lost in madness, lunged at the mysterious masked man!

"The Nine-Tails, huh..."

"Still not learning your lesson?"

The mysterious masked man glanced at the crazed Uzumaki Naruto, quickly raised his palm, and a black rod instantly extended from his sleeve, piercing the shoulder of the little guy and pinning him directly to the ground!

Dealing with the Nine-Tails, the mysterious masked man had plenty of tricks, let alone controlling a young Jinchuriki wrapped in a bit of the Nine-Tails' chakra!

"Now it should be my turn to find this interesting, right?"

Akihara Kagura tilted his head, seemingly very curious about the scene before him: "Why does Naruto react like this upon seeing you? No, rather, why do the Nine-Tails inside Naruto react like this upon seeing you?"

"..."

The mysterious masked man suddenly clenched his fist!

Ever since the Nine-Tails incident six years ago, there had been no issues with the Nine-Tails inside Uzumaki Naruto. But this time, upon seeing his mask, it suddenly became violent!

Now everyone knows there is a problem! Originally, it was just to protect the Nine-Tails from being killed, but unexpectedly, the Nine-Tails' violence exposed some secrets of the past!

"Let me guess..."

Akihara Kagura stroked his chin, starting to deduce the process based on the known results: "The Nine-Tails wouldn't go berserk without reason. The last time it went berserk... during the Nine-Tails incident, you were also involved, right, intruder?"

"You really are smart..."

The mysterious masked man begrudgingly complimented him.

"Your Sharingan is not bad either..."

Akihara Kagura returned the compliment, continuing leisurely: "The Uchiha clan's Mangeky Sharingan can control the Tailed Beasts. If I'm not wrong, six years ago, you must have controlled the Nine-Tails..."

"Not bad."

The mysterious masked man slowly nodded his head.

"Do you hate Konoha?"

Akihara Kagura suddenly quickened his questioning.

"Yes."

The mysterious masked man did not deny it.

"Do you also dislike this world?"

Akihara Kagura seemed to be asking a meaningless question.

"Yes."

The mysterious masked man found this question quite meaningful.

If Akihara Kagura keeps talking like this, the mysterious masked man wouldn't mind letting this little guy understand his thoughts, even wanting to tempt this little guy to agree that the false world needs to change.

However...

Akihara Kagura's questions gradually became strange: "If you hate this world, you always need a reason. It seems your family must all be deceased?"

"Correct."

The mysterious masked man didn't have time to thoroughly instill into Akihara Kagura that this world is a mistake, suddenly being asked and reminded of his grandmother whom he hadn't thought about for a long time.

"Did you kill Aburame Tatsuma?"

Akihara Kagura abruptly asked a question.

"Correct."

The mysterious masked man abruptly spoke the truth.

"Little kid..."

The mysterious masked man's eyes suddenly tightened, feeling like he had been tricked: "Did you deliberately distract my attention just to find out about this?"

"I should say, this is the only thing I could ask."

Akihara Kagura hugged his arms, with his left finger gently tapping on his right arm: "The one who once caused the Nine-Tails Disturbance, you have too many secrets on you. Killing Aburame Tatsuma seems rather trivial, so I was able to ask..."

"But..."

"It doesn't matter anymore..."

"After tonight, these will no longer be secrets..."

Akihara Kagura's chakra violently erupted, and vines burst out from the ground: "Now I just need to entangle you, the rest is just waiting for the Anbu reinforcements!"
