Chapter 32: The Sand Scorpion
The yellow sand is howling, and the sun is scorching the earth.
Sand Ninja Village, Kazekage Building, a conference room.
In the center of the conference room, there was a large round table several meters wide, and around the round table sat more than a dozen sand ninjas, all of whom were old ninjas from the sand ninja village.
Sitting at the top was a young man, about seventeen or eighteen years old, with red hair and the word 'love' on his forehead.
"Ahem~"
A ninja in the conference room coughed dryly and said: "Recently, we have frequent exchanges with various countries, and trade has gradually connected, especially with the country of fire, which has made our country's economy prosperous a lot, because of the newly opened rivers, our country's water shortage has been greatly alleviated, and 70% of the population's drinking water has been solved." ”
A smile appeared on a sand ninja's face after reporting.
"70% of the population?"
"That river must be heavily guarded."
"Yes, that's our river of hope."
The atmosphere in the meeting room was relaxed, and most of the ninjas were smiling.
The elder Chiyo Mother-in-law, who was sitting on the side, looked at the five generations of Kazekage and nodded with satisfaction, she was very satisfied with this generation of Kazekage.
"Also, in terms of cultivating new people, since the introduction of Konoha's education curriculum, there has been a good improvement."
"The middle ninja exam is coming soon, and the results of the exam are exciting."
"Well, it's good news, they're the future of the village."
The atmosphere in the meeting room was nice, and most of the ninjas looked relaxed.
"But ......," said a shinobi with a mustache and hair covering his right eye.
"What's wrong, Yura."
Markey on the side also spoke, and Marki's status in Sand Ninja Village is not low, second only to Chiyo.
Shinobu Yura pondered for a moment, the previous atmosphere in the conference room gradually disappeared, what was said before was good news, and now it was bad news.
"Have you heard of this organization?"
Yura looked around.
"I've heard a little."
"It is said that it is an organization assembled by a group of rebel ninjas, and it has been active recently, and they were responsible for the assassination of the Daimyo of River Country some time ago."
The ninjas present nodded their heads, and the first one, Iara, didn't speak, just listened quietly.
Although I Airo is the Wind Shadow, there are still many ninjas in the Sand Ninja Village who don't agree with him, and a village can't be without a shadow, coupled with the attitude of Konoha Side, I Airo became the Wind Shadow.
"The Akatsuki organization is composed of more than 10 members......
Shinobu Yura began to recount the information he knew, and for some reason, a tingling pain came from his head as he spoke, which made his eyes darken.
A seal appeared in Yuliang's mind, and as he mentioned the things he knew, some trivial memories appeared.
"What's wrong, Yura."
Yura's connections as the upper ninja of the Sand Ninja Village are quite good.
"It's fine."
Yura continued to recount the information he had, but his mind grew more and more drowsy.
Click.
There was a crisp sound in Liang's ears, a certain seal shattered, and a large number of memories poured into his brain.
……
In the Land of the Winds, on a desert.
Three figures walked slowly on the desert, and the three of them wore wooden hats, surrounded by a circle of cloth.
Jingle bells.
The bell rang, and one of them had a red string hanging from his hat, and a small bell was tied to the red string.
Su Xiao didn't care about the bell in front of him, this thing could relieve his irritability, after all, walking through the desert was not an easy task.
The trio had traveled on Deidara's clay birds, but when they arrived in the desert, they had to walk.
The wind and sand are too strong, and the temperature above is very high, and it won't be long before the three of them will become dehydrated, and the conclusion is that flying in the desert is a dead act.
Moreover, Deidara needs to consume chakra to control the clay bird, and entering the Land of the Wind is different from entering the Land of Water, which is surrounded by a vast ocean, so you don't have to worry about the appearance of enemies.
"Scorpion, how far is it?"
Su Xiao took out a bottle of water, drank half of the bottle, and handed the remaining half bottle to Bu Buwang, who drank it in a few sips.
Bu Bu Wang stuck out his tongue, his face full of lovelessness, and he was tempted to take off his 'leather coat' now.
"It will take about half a day to arrive at Sand Ninja Village."
There are scorpions, and a few people don't need guides, and scorpions grew up in this desert country.
Su Xiao stepped on the sand under his feet, the sand was very soft, leaving a deep footprint, and the sand made walking more strenuous.
"It's hot, nasty sand, phew."
Deidara blew sand into her mouth as she spoke.
"You're okay with that bag of clay? This time, the opponent is the human pillar force. ”
Su Xiao looked at a small cloth bag in Deidara's hand, the three of them would chat when they were in a hurry, otherwise it would be too boring to hurry.
"My ninjutsu is all art, and this time I prepared 'Eighteen' in advance, after all, this time the opponent is Ichio."
Deidara patted the ninja bag on her waist, which contained special clay.
Just as the three of them were walking forward, Scarlet Amber suddenly stopped, and the scorpion inside seemed to have discovered something.
Sensing this scene, Su Xiao pressed one hand on the handle of the knife at his waist.
"Enemies?"
"No, there's good news, the chess pieces I placed in Sand Ninja Village a long time ago have come into effect."
"Chess pieces?"
Deidara looked at the scorpion suspiciously.
"It's the kind of technique that was exchanged with Orochimaru."
"Oh? So, we don't have to hit it head-on? ”
"No, plans change, let's dive in."
Su Xiao didn't know what the two were talking about, and seemed to see his doubts, the scorpion thought for a moment and said: "I planted eyeliner in Sand Ninja Village a long time ago, and he was sealed by me in his mind, and he didn't know his identity as a spy, so he won't be suspected by others, I lifted the seal before this mission, if everything goes well, he is the key to this mission." ”
A spy who doesn't know he's a spy can often play an unexpected role.
"A spy who doesn't know his identity? I hope he can help us get into the Sand Ninja Village, it's really not a good idea to get in head-on. ”
With the strength of Su Xiao and the three of them, it was still a little difficult to attack Sand Ninja Village head-on.
"It depends on the situation, I have already contacted him, judging from the current situation, this chess piece is useful, but do me a favor after the mission, White Night."
"What."
"Clean up this piece."
Su Xiao looked sideways at the scorpion.
“……”
"My business, I'm going to make a decision later."
Deidara also looked at the scorpion.
"It's not a smart choice, it's not in line with your art."
"Who knows."
The trio continued on their way, and the team fell silent.
Su Xiao clearly felt that the scorpion had a will to die, and this situation appeared when he entered this desert.
"I'll deal with the chess pieces for you later."
"Thank you."
Su Xiao and Deidara glanced at each other, and Deidara nodded quietly.
"Scorpion, I and Deidara are responsible for capturing the human pillar force, and you are responsible for preserving your strength and dealing with the pursuing enemy, how about it?"
The scorpion didn't speak, which was a tacit acquiescence.
Five hours after the trio crossed the desert, a stepped circular wall loomed in front of them, which protected the Sand Ninja Village, reducing the wind and sand and preventing ninjas from other countries from infiltrating.
At this time, there was a famous sand ninja on the stepped wall, and one of the famous sand ninjas' eyes narrowed, and he saw a figure in the distance.
