This ninja in Naruto is unscientific

Chapter 420 Red Bean and Kabuto

"Hey, you with the afro! What are you doing? Hey? What happened to your afro?!"

Hongdou pushed open the door with practiced ease.

Hiruko was standing in front of a huge fiberglass cylinder, recording data with a happy expression.

Upon hearing Hongdou's voice, he was not annoyed at being disturbed; instead, he smiled like a flower.

"Oh! It's Maruko! The explosion last time was just an accident. Come and see, Uncle's miniature chakra converter is going to be tested again!"

The origin of the afro hairstyle is that when Anko first met Hiruko, Hiruko's experiment happened to explode, which resulted in her having an afro.

Hiruko was very enthusiastic towards the little girl who gave him the nickname. In the secret laboratories of Building C, only Orochimaru, Nishikawa Tetsu, and himself had the authority to enter.

Orochimaru only treats me like an assistant, and Nishikawa Tetsu doesn't come over often these days, so he has no one to share his experimental results with.

The arrival of the red bean perfectly satisfied Hiruko's desire to show off.

"Wow! This glowing thing is so cool!" Red Bean leaned closer to the fiberglass cylinder. "Uncle, can this be used to grill meat?"

"Uh..." Hiruko's smile froze. "Well... theoretically, if the high temperature generated by the fusion of lightning and wind can be controlled, grilling meat... shouldn't be a problem. But its main purpose is to manufacture individual combat weapons!"

"Using it for grilling meat is such a waste!"

Red Bean was a little disappointed: "What? Weapons are nothing compared to barbecue! I'd rather go find my short, red-haired brother!"

……

"Red-haired, short, stout brother! What are you doing?"

The door to the office area surrounding Scorpion's private laboratory was pushed open, and Red Bean was about to go in and cause trouble as usual, but suddenly froze.

In that corner full of metal parts, there was surprisingly a soft mat.

On the cushion sat a little boy who looked two or three years younger than her, with delicate and beautiful features.

The little boy was having a great time playing with a puppet part that didn't have a poison needle attached to it.

The expressionless red-haired puppeteer sat stiffly to the side, holding a wooden stick with its edges smoothed down, occasionally waving it in front of the little boy, his movements clumsy like a robot.

Wow! What an adorable child!

Red Bean's eyes lit up instantly. She completely ignored Scorpion's darkened face and rushed to the mat.

She crouched down, took a slightly melted candy out of her pocket, and waved it in front of the little boy.

"Little brother, what's your name? My name is Mitarashi Anko, you can call me Anko-neechan! Here, let me give you some candy!"

The little boy raised his head, his big, dark eyes looking at the red bean, then turning to look at the scorpion beside him, as if seeking his opinion.

"His name is Kabuto Yakushi." Sasori uttered two words coldly, leaning back slightly, trying to distance himself from the two troublesome brats.

"Dou, hello there!" Hongdou pinched Dou's chubby little face without any hesitation, and was even happier to see that Dou didn't cry.

"Shorty brother, is this your son? He's so cute!" Red Bean excitedly circled around him.

Scorpion's face flushed red, and he spoke with barely suppressed anger.

"He's not my son, and I'm still growing, I'll grow taller! You little brat, don't call me a shorty!"

"Huh~ Is that so?" Red Bean tilted her head. "Will I really grow taller?"

Scorpion clenched his fist, but ultimately held back: "Really!"

"Okay, but I have to go back to eat now. The teacher said that if I don't eat on time, I won't grow tall."

"Dou, how about I take you out to play next time? Let's go catch fish in the river behind the research institute!"

Although Dou didn't quite understand, she sensed Hongdou's kindness, gave her a sweet smile, and waved her little hand.

"It's a deal! Bye-bye!" Red Bean waved.

Watching the door close again, Scorpion let out a long sigh of relief, his previously tense shoulders relaxing.

He glanced at Dou, who was still playing with parts on the mat, and a hint of anticipation flashed in his eyes.

"I'll take him out to play next time..." Scorpion murmured to himself.

If this crazy girl could really take this clingy little troublemaker away... that would be a fantastic thing for him.

Sasori rubbed his temples, realizing for the first time that Orochimaru's annoying disciple was actually quite adorable.

Of course, this is on the premise that you don't say he's short.

……

All morning, Hongdou was like a busy little bee, shuttling between different floors of the research institute.

From Building A to Building C, the researchers were both amused and exasperated by the nicknames she gave him, such as "Afro-haired Uncle," "Glasses Uncle," and "Bald Uncle," but none of them could get angry at this innocent and carefree little girl.

Around noon, Red Bean's stomach started growling with hunger, and she finally wandered back to Orochimaru's laboratory.

"Teacher! I'm home! I'm starving!"

Red Bean shouted.

In the laboratory, Orochimaru was standing in front of a huge petri dish, recording the division of White Zetsu cells.

Hearing Anko's voice, Orochimaru put down his notebook, turned around, looked at the expectant little girl, and sighed helplessly.

"Where did you go causing trouble this morning?" Orochimaru walked up to Anko, took out a clean handkerchief, and wiped the sweat from her forehead and the sugar frosting from the corner of her mouth.

"I didn't cause any trouble! I went to inspect the work of the red-haired sister, the afro-haired uncle, and the glasses uncle!" Red Bean retorted confidently.

Orochimaru's eye twitched slightly.

"Stay away from that guy Nishikawa Tetsu next time."

"Let's go eat." Orochimaru took Anko's little hand.

"I want to eat three-colored meatballs!"

"Eat your main meal first; the meatballs can only be served as dessert."

"Oh……"

"Oh, right, teacher, teacher, I have something to tell you."

"I just went to see that short, red-haired guy, and guess what I saw?"

Orochimaru raised an eyebrow: "Anko, don't give her an insulting nickname. It's very impolite."

"Okay, okay, I understand, teacher."

Seeing that Anko was reflecting on her actions again, Orochimaru continued, "What else could Sasori do besides researching puppets? Is it some kind of strange mechanism?"

"No way!" Anko shook Orochimaru's arm. "In Red-Haired Brother's lab, there's a kid even younger than me named Kabuto Yakushi! He's so cute, all chubby!"

As Hongdou spoke, she gestured animatedly to indicate the name.

"Teacher, you wouldn't believe it! That older brother who always has a cold face actually sat on the ground and teased him with a little stick! It was so funny! I even made a promise with Dou that I'd take him fishing next time!"

Upon hearing this, Orochimaru paused slightly.

Scorpion, who is indifferent to everything except revenge and his art, is actually taking care of a child in his laboratory?

And what is the relationship between this child, Yakushi Kabuto, and Yakushi Nonou?

A meaningful glint flashed in Orochimaru's golden vertical pupils, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Oh? It seems our genius puppeteer has also found his bond."
