Nonou Yakushi’s Role in Naruto
Nonō was a member of Konoha's Anbu sub-division Root. She was an expert in the area of intelligence gathering, but left the organisation to run Konoha's orphanage instead. While out one day, she found a wounded child near a deserted village.
Personality, Abilities, and Story Impact
She healed the child and brought him back with her to the orphanage. As the child could not remember anything, at Urushi 's behest, she named the child " Kabuto " for the helmet he was wearing at the time. One night when he was caught out of bed past curfew, the other caretakers, Keiri and Kanpu, brought him to the clock in order to teach him how to tell time.
