Chapter 317 Doesn't anyone think that thing on the giant snake's bellyband is lewd?
In Izanami, Kabuto initially kept repeating the illusion of "slaying Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Sasuke".
But as he got stuck in a loop hundreds and thousands of times, Kabuto became impatient and asked Itachi Uchiha in the illusion what he had done.
Only then did Itachi give him a hint—
"Only when you accept your true self and stop pretending to be anyone else can you see the true nature of this technique."
Before Itachi's words had even finished, the surrounding scenery had already changed drastically. The dark and damp cave had vanished, and the jagged rock walls and unique architectural style indicated that this was the place where he had traveled in different identities and delivered intelligence countless times on the brink of life and death.
—Iwagakure Village.
Dou looked up at the moon in the sky, the soft moonlight shining on her body, the gentle night breeze brushing against the fine scales on her skin, in the silence only the chirping of insects, along with the sound of the wind rustling the fallen leaves, everything was so real.
His breathing grew heavier, and his senses, expanded to their fullest extent, spread outwards like an invisible giant net, desperately trying to capture every flow of chakra and every tremor of the air, wary of any possible attack from Itachi and Sasuke Uchiha from the shadows.
Suddenly he sensed chakra quietly approaching him from the side and behind!
Kabuto's arrogant expression returned!
"You were careless! Itachi Uchiha!!"
Victory still belongs to me!!!
The moment the ambushers realized their presence had been exposed, they shot out like arrows, heading straight for Yakushi Kabuto, intending to confront him head-on!
However, the next moment... *Pfft!*
A muffled thud of flesh being torn apart suddenly ripped through the air. The white python on the apothecary's abdomen struck first, like a pale white bolt of lightning, piercing the attacker's chest without mercy.
The man froze instantly, looking down in disbelief to see a gaping hole in his chest, blood gushing out, while the giant python's cold scales gleamed against his back.
With a smug smile, Kabuto slowly turned around, just in time to hear the man say with his last breath, "Bake-mono--" (Monster).
Kabuto's smug smile was still frozen on his face, but when he realized who he had killed, he was so terrified that it felt as if all the blood in his body had turned to ice water!
"Godmother"
He forgot about his fight with Itachi! He used almost all his strength to rush to Yakushi Nonou and catch her as she fell.
The enormous hole in his upper body meant that even with the magical powers of Ryuchi Cave, he couldn't save the dying woman.
"Godmother?! Godmother!!"
No matter how much Kabuto called out, he couldn't stop Nono Yakushi's life from rapidly slipping away.
With a massive wound and all her vital organs pierced by the white snake, Yakushi Nonou was unable to speak. Only in her gradually losing light could Yakushi Kabuto see his own appearance.
His grayish-white skin, created through biological experiments, was covered with fine, large snake scales, and his head bore the dragon horns he was so proud of—proof of his dragonhood.
Recalling the godmother's last words "ばけ——もの————" monster.
Kabuto suddenly felt extreme panic at his own appearance! He didn't even dare to touch Nono Yakushi's body anymore! He let go of her body, letting it fall to the ground, and then jumped back more than ten meters away!
However, the sound of "monster" kept echoing in his ears, and even though Kabuto covered his ears and shouted "Shut up!" over and over again, it was no use!
"Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!" Kabuto Yakushi screamed frantically, "Godmother is long dead! This is an illusion! It's Itachi Uchiha's genjutsu!!"
Just as someone having a nightmare knows they are having a nightmare but cannot wake themselves up from the dream, Kabuto Yakushi could not wake himself up no matter what.
Instead, the surrounding environment transformed back into Kirigakure (Hidden Mist Village) —
Filled with hatred for killing his godmother again, Kabuto vowed to capture Itachi and Sasuke and cruelly torture them in front of them until the brothers were completely dead!
However, tragedy struck again; he killed Yakushi Nonou once more in Kirigakure.
"ばけ——もの————" monster.
It was that same line again: everyone clearly saw their own reflection in the godmother's dulled eyes.
Kabuto tried to wake himself up, muttering to himself, "No, this is an illusion! I killed my godmother many years ago! Many years ago, she was killed by Yakushi Kabuto!!"
He held Nono's body, repeating that sentence over and over again.
But after repeating the same thing for who knows how many times, he suddenly raised a question—
"who I am----?"
"Who is Yakushi Kabuto?"
The surrounding scenery shifted again, transforming into Sunagakure, the village where he had once carried out a spy mission.
Having experienced two previous accidental killings, Kabuto hesitated this time.
He repeatedly confirmed that the chakra he sensed belonged to Itachi Uchiha! And he cautiously used an attack method that did not cause a large wound area.
Unfortunately, he was in a state of high tension, and his muscle memory still caused his attack to be fatal to Yakushi Nonou.
"Godmother! Godmother!!"
This gave Kabuto the opportunity to say a few words to Nonou Yakushi before she died.
Kabuto Yakushi continuously transferred the power of his Sage Mode to his godmother, who was suffering a fatal attack, and repeatedly called out to her, "Godmother! Godmother!"
"Who are you calling?" Yakushi Nono asked weakly.
This question left Dou speechless.
Who am I? Kabuto Yakushi? Who is Kabuto Yakushi?
"Who are you?!" Yakushi Nonou asked again.
In desperation, Kabuto shouted, "I am Kabuto! I can save you now! I can now—" He still had a lot to say, that he had become a better ninja than Orochimaru and had obtained the power of Ryuchi Cave that even Orochimaru had not obtained.
However----
"You are not—Dou—"
"A pocket—it doesn't have horns—nor—it has—a piece—"
"Kabuto—is not—a monster—"
Kabuto felt dizzy and nauseous, and he didn't even know when he stopped treating Nono, letting her die in his arms.
He then endured immense pain and killed Yakushi Nonou time and time again.
With each kill, the scene and time rewind, as if helping him gradually recover his memories. Until time returns to before he became a spy, he sees another Kabuto Yakushi healing Orochimaru during the Ninja War with medical ninjutsu.
"Are you the next person to receive treatment?"
Young Kabuto obediently reached out his hand to Orochi Kabuto, who, in a fit of terror, killed his younger self.
He wanted to take back the identity of Yakushi Kabuto from his younger self.
At this point, Kabuto Yakushi was in a state of madness.
He had forgotten Itachi Uchiha and Sasuke Uchiha, and he had forgotten the Fourth Shinobi World War.
He was trapped in a vicious cycle, repeatedly ignoring the hand that Kabuto Yakushi reached out to him when he was a child, killing him again and again, but instead of taking back his identity, he felt even more strongly that Kabuto Yakushi was already dead.
Until he heard Itachi Uchiha's voice again—
"Only when you accept your true self and stop pretending to be anyone else can you see the true nature of this technique."
The voice was like a glimmer of clarity in the chaos, allowing Kabuto Yakushi to re-examine everything in his environment before killing his younger self.
He saw Urushi and other relatives in the orphanage.
This discovery finally brought about some changes to the vicious cycle —
Before killing Kabuto again when he was a child, Kabuto saw Urushi approaching and asked, "Kabuto? You're Kabuto, right?"
Perhaps it was because Kabuto Yakushi so desperately wanted to be recognized, but Urushi here actually spotted and recognized him, even asking, "Is Godmother's mission finished? When is she coming back?"
This question caused the giant serpent to flee in panic.
Then he experienced again the scene of killing Yakushi Nonou from years ago, but this time, before dying, Yakushi Nonou mistook Orochi Kabuto for Yakushi Kabuto, touching his face and saying, "I really want to see—the real—one more time."
pocket----"
Perhaps Nono was referring to Kabuto in the photo, but to Kabuto, it sounded like Nono wanted to see that pure boy—Kabuto.
So when the young Kabuto asked him again, "Are you the next person to receive treatment?", Kabuto didn't kill his younger self. Instead, he held his hand, giving up on taking Kabuto's identity from him, and said as if finally giving up everything, "Please—make me you—".
Kabuto: Because the person Godmother wants to see is you, not me, this monster.
"What are you talking about? Did you have a nightmare?" Urushi frowned disapprovingly. "Aren't you Kabuto? We've all been waiting for you to come back! Idiot."
Beside Urushi, the other children in the orphanage chimed in, "Having a stupid little brother is such a worry."
"No matter what it becomes, a pocket is a pocket. As long as you explain it clearly to your godmother, isn't that enough?"
Kabuto, who had already given up on everything, was surprised to find that his hand, clasped with that of a younger Kabuto, suddenly emitted a white light. In the process of realizing what was happening, he suddenly understood—
—The dream is over.
He was still in the cave where he had hidden, but Itachi and Sasuke had already left, and the large-scale Impure World Reincarnation array had been dispelled.
"Why—" Kabuto muttered in astonishment, "You didn't kill me—?"
He wanted to ask Itachi Uchiha, but since his Edo Tensei had been completely undone, it meant that Itachi had also returned to the Pure Land, right?
He desperately wanted to know what had happened, and after recalling the events of his dream for a while, Kabuto immediately rushed to the battlefield of the Fourth Shinobi World War.
A strange twist of fate led him to encounter Urushi, who was part of the Allied Shinobi Forces fighting against the Edo Tensei army, on his journey!
Seeing Kabuto's pale skin and indescribable appearance, the Allied Shinobi Forces assumed he was a remnant of the White Zetsu, and everyone, including Urushi, went into battle mode.
"Watch out! The enemy looks very strong!!" shouted a ninja from Kirigakure.
He could barely be considered a sensory ninja, as he could sense far more powerful chakra from Kabuto Yakushi than they could.
Kabuto didn't intend to attack them, but he looked at Urushi and didn't know what to say for a moment. He was afraid to hear Urushi say the same things his godmother had said back then.
Fortunately, the fake photo was only given to Yakushi Nonou by Shimura Danzo. The others in the orphanage did not know Yakushi Kabuto's whereabouts, and many guessed that their brother Kabuto was dead, but Urushi, for example, still held a glimmer of hope.
"pocket?"
Uluxi asked tentatively.
He hadn't initially recognized the monster in front of him, which was no longer quite human, as Kabuto. But Kabuto kept staring at him, which inexplicably reminded Urushi of his younger brother who hadn't returned in a long time.
It was fate again. Not long ago, a comrade from the Allied Shinobi Forces had told him that his family had all died and he had nowhere to go. Urushi invited the man to his home, which led to the conversation about Kojiin. He casually mentioned that he had a younger brother who was exceptionally skilled in medical ninjutsu, but hadn't been back for a long time.
This incident served as a prelude, leading Uruxi to recognize Kabuto by some strange twist of fate.
The name his godmother gave him was like a redemption, allowing him to completely return to his original identity.
"Kabuto? You mean he's your younger brother who's incredibly skilled in medical ninjutsu?" the Konoha ninja who had spoken with Urushi earlier asked in surprise.
In truth, Urushi wasn't entirely sure; he was merely probing. But Kabuto responded, calling out his name immediately: "Urushi?"
"What? It's Urushi's brother! You scared me to death."
After days of fighting, the Allied Shinobi Forces were on high alert. Once they confirmed that the person who came was an acquaintance and not an enemy, they immediately relaxed their vigilance.
"I thought it was another powerful enemy resurrected through Edo Tensei," the Konoha ninja breathed a sigh of relief. "It's strange, those powerful Edo Tensei users just suddenly ascended to heaven."
"Someone must have taken care of the guy behind it all."
"They were already dead, so they couldn't be killed at all. Luckily, someone took care of them, otherwise we cannon fodder would either be killed or slowly worn down to death!"
Kabuto Yakushi overheard the conversation between the Allied Shinobi Forces.
He stared at Urushi in astonishment. "You—" Before he could finish speaking, Urushi asked first, "Were you also sent to fight against the Edo Tensei army, Kabuto?"

Dou is in a huge predicament!
How could he possibly answer that?! He was the one who summoned the Impure World Reincarnation! But he never imagined that the enemies resurrected through Impure World Reincarnation included his own brother, Urushi!!
Even though he could control the resurrected dead and strip them of their sight or consciousness, he barely paid any attention to the vast majority of ordinary resurrected ninjas who were merely used as secondary combatants!
His silence didn't lead the Allied Shinobi Forces to believe he was the boss of the Edo Tensei army; instead, they speculated in the opposite direction: "Urushi, your brother is amazing! Could it be that he's the one who took down that treacherous guy behind the scenes?!"
Yakushi Kabuto:
'
This question is even harder! How is he supposed to answer it?!
Are we going to steal Itachi's identity and say he defeated the Edo Tensei army? But honestly, wouldn't it be more accurate to say he was defeated?!
"Anyway—" Kabuto Yakushi hesitated before speaking, "The Edo Tensei army has been dealt with, but we still need to be careful of White Zetsu, those inhuman monsters."
As they were talking, a White Zetsu hidden in the crowd shouted, "Kabuto! You bastard!!" and charged at Kabuto. Of course, it was easily killed by Kabuto, which further convinced the Allied Shinobi Forces that he was the hero who had killed the mastermind behind the Edo Tensei army.
Kabuto was panicked, but at the same time, he was incredibly grateful to Itachi Uchiha for defeating him and reminding him of his true self. Otherwise—
Looking at Uruxi before him, and his brothers and sisters from the orphanage who might be heading to other battlefields, he felt a wave of fear. He had almost killed them all as well, and by then, perhaps there wouldn't be a single person who truly cared about him.
"Are you going to other battlefields?" Urushi guessed, seeing Kabuto's dazed look. "Although it's not easy for us brothers to meet again, if you have the ability to end the war sooner, then go quickly, but don't push yourself too hard."
As the song ended, Kabuto's memories also came to a halt.
The last part of the recollection is that on his way to the core battlefield, he suddenly realized that Uchiha Sasuke's chakra was so weak that it could not be sensed unless he used Sage Mode!
Neither Kabuto nor Sasuke could have imagined that it would be him who ended up saving Sasuke. When Sasuke woke up and saw him, it was completely unexpected.
Both of them simultaneously thought of Itachi Uchiha, wondering if this was also a move that terrifying man had foreseen. However, the battle was too intense at the time, and they didn't have much time to pay attention to such matters.

Dou chuckled as he looked at the comments, "Those all-knowing gods really know how to stir things up."
"Yes," Urushi chuckled.
The little kaleidoscopes in the distance, after the VCR in the sky ended, all stared at Kabuto Yakushi, their gazes lowered, their expressions serious, their tone as rigid as a machine:
Uchiha A: "Father—"
Uchiha B: "The hidden Orochi—"
Uchiha C: "How perverted—"
Uchiha D: "Like Okinojin—"
Yakushi Kabuto:

His expression froze on his face.
