The Land of the Wind.

It is the largest country in the ninja world, but it is also the country with the harshest and most barren natural environment.

This is because the desert area, which occupies more than ninety percent of the land of the Land of the Wind, is accompanied by extremely scarce rainfall, and only a few oasis areas are suitable for habitation.

Due to the scarcity of resources, the Wind Nation relies on imports from the Fire Nation for a large amount of production and living materials.

In addition, the strength of the Sand Hidden Village has been suppressed by the Konoha Village, causing the Wind Country to be weaker than the Fire Country economically and militarily, and over time, it has become the younger brother of the other party.

And now, that's gone forever.

With the demise of the Fire Country, the Wind Country occupied a large amount of the other party's territory, and for the first time in history, the Sand Hidden Village rode on the head of Konoha and acted as a prestige.

Speaking of sand hide.

It is a ninja village located in the heart of the country of wind, and it is about the size of Konoha.

However, compared to Konoha Village, which has green mountains and clear water and fresh air, it is surrounded by desert, and there are only deserts and stones in the village, and sand and dust are flying all year round.

However, such a harsh natural environment is an excellent place to cultivate ninjas.

Today.

On the streets of Shayin Village, two ordinary villagers came.

In fact, they were Kakashi and Tenzo, possessed by Ah Fei, respectively, and both of them used the Wood Transformation Technique.

Wrap the branches around yourself to deform and transform yourself into the appearance of others, which is extremely realistic and cannot be seen by ordinary people.

This kind of wooden ninjutsu is very convenient for espionage and investigation.

As the former Konoha Shadow, the Kakashi duo have performed a lot of tasks, and the Sand Hidden Village has also been here several times, so they can be regarded as familiar with the road.

Thus.

When the Uchiha clan came to the vicinity of the sand hide, the two took the initiative to ask Ying to infiltrate the sand hide village to find out the enemy's numbers, strength, and defenses.

The two of them walked down the street, quietly surveying their surroundings.

The houses are very special in shape, they are all large round earth and stone buildings, which can be well protected from wind and sand, and the windows are also sealed with glass.

Recently.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Sand Hidden army was on the march against Konoha and the interior was empty, the ninjas of the Rain Hide attacked the Sand Hide, causing many casualties and taking away a human pillar force Aira.

Subsequently, the front line came back with bad news, saying that the fourth generation of Wind Shadow Raksha had unfortunately died.

Luo Sha's technique of magnetic retreat gold can pan for gold from the desert, and was once the main source of finance for Shayin Village. As soon as he died, it was undoubtedly worse for Sha Yin.

Fortunately, the war was won.

Together with other major ninja villages, Sand Hide colonized Konoha and snatched a large part of the territory of the Fire Country.

The Daimyo of the Land of the Wind originally had a lot of complaints about Sha Yin, and once he didn't even entrust the task to Sha Yin, but now he is also smiling and generously allocating a large amount of military expenses to Sha Yin.

After that, with the signing of the armistice treaty with Konoha, the Sand Hidden Ninja half-bought and half-robbed, bringing a large number of high-quality and low-cost goods from Konoha.

After sucking Konoha's blood, Shayin's days got better all of a sudden.

This can be seen and heard from the joyful expressions of the sand ninja and the villagers on the street, as well as their chatter and discussion.

The voices of several Sand Hidden Ninjas rang out behind the two Kakashi.

"After so many years, it's finally our turn to raise our eyebrows. I didn't expect that one day, the Sand Hidden Ninja could also enjoy super-national treatment and extraterritoriality in Konoha, which is really exciting. ”

"Not only that, as long as you join the garrison of Sand Hidden in Konoha, all expenses and expenses will be provided by Konoha, and you can eat, drink and have fun to your heart's content."

"I've long heard that the women of Konoha are white and good-looking, unlike the women in our place, who are exposed to the wind and sun all year round, and they are very rough."

"The money of Hua Konoha, the woman of Sleeping Konoha Village, this kind of fairy-like life is simply not too cool."

"Hurry up and sign up, if it's too late, someone else will preempt it."

The more they talked, the more excited they became, and they hurried past Kakashi and Tenzo and hurried towards the Kazekage Building.

Kakashi stopped, clenching his fists.

It wasn't the first time he had heard similar remarks from those mouths just now, but he still felt aggrieved and sad.

Tenzo also fell silent.

Come back to your senses.

The two cheered up and continued their investigation.

Near the Wind Shadow Building, a high point of a building.

White-eyed, open!

Kakashi opened his eyes and scanned the Kazekage Building, roughly ascertaining the personnel inside.

Then, the two of them did the same, and it took a small half a day to carefully bypass the sight of the Sand Hidden Ninja and circle the entire village.

As Kakashi expected.

Most of the ninjas in Sand Hidden Village have gone to Konoha to conquer Konoha, and there are only more than 1,000 people left in the homeland, of which the middle ninja and the lower ninja are the majority.

There are very few forbearances.

This kind of strength, in front of the Uchiha clan, is simply vulnerable.

But.

Just as the two were about to leave and go back to report to Fuyue, a small episode suddenly appeared.

There was a brawl on the street corner.

It stands to reason that quarrels between villagers are normal, usually because of trivial things, and there is nothing worth caring about.

But Kakashi heard words like "human pillar force", "Iara", and "monster" from the mouths of both sides of the quarrel.

The two looked at each other and leaned over quietly.

"Apologize immediately and take back what you just said, or I won't be polite to you."

A girl of about seven or eight years old, with her hands on her hips, stood in front of several tall sand ninjas, and warned them very seriously.

The girl had warm yellow hair, her bangs were combed in a mid-parted shape, and there were four ponytails tied behind her head.

Her name is Temari, and she is the only daughter of the fourth generation of Kazekage Rasa, and the older sister of Ichi-Oto-Tsuri Iara.

Just now.

When Temari was passing by the street corner, I heard these people talking about Airo and saying something very unpleasant.

Thinking that his younger brother was taken away, he didn't know whether he was dead or alive, and he was cursed by the villagers behind his back, Temari couldn't get angry for a while, so he quarreled with these people.

"Apologize? Are you kidding. That damn imp in my Airo, who can't manage the tailed beast in his body, goes out of control every time, kills so many people, and even asks us victims to apologize. ”

"This kind of calamity star rolling out of the village as soon as possible is the greatest good thing for Sha Yin."

Several people disagreed, and looked at Temari condescendingly, with contemptuous expressions.

They knew that Temari was the daughter of four generations of Kazekage, but so what.

Although Luo Sha is a wind shadow, he has a cold personality, and his reputation before his death is not very good, and there are not a few people in Shayin Village who hate him in private.

Not to mention, he is already a dead man, and people go to tea and cool.

Damn it.

Teju clenched his fists, and his eyes flashed with a fierce light.

As my sister, she knows better than anyone how lonely and lonely her brother is.

Especially under my father's arrangement, I Airo personally killed my uncle Yashamaru, and after falling into darkness completely, Temari became the only link between Airo and this world.

She couldn't stand the insults these guys were using for her brother.

"Oh, want to do it?"

"Impolite little ghost, it just so happens that your father is dead, let's educate you well instead of him."

Several people also showed fierce eyes, not only bullying the small with the big, but also bullying the small with the more, and they did it on the spot.

Temari gritted his teeth and circled with a few people.

Although she is also a genius, after all, she is too young to be limited by this body, and her strength and speed are not enough.

Soon fell into disadvantage.

Seeing a group of adults bullying a little girl is inevitably unbearable, but Kakashi and Tenzo choose to stand by and watch.

After all, once they make a move, it means an extra point of exposure.

The two found no valuable information, and after a while they lost interest.

"Let's go."

Kakashi said and turned to leave.

Behind them, Temari was knocked to the ground by several men, punched and kicked, and covered in shoe prints and dust.

It wasn't long before I walked out.

A young man of fifteen or sixteen, with silver-white hair and a pair of glasses, hurriedly passed by Kakashi and the others.

"Huh."

Tenzo let out a sudden sigh, and a vague face flashed through his mind.

"What's wrong?" Kakashi asked.

"I seem to have seen that boy just now." Tenzo frowned and looked back.

I saw the silver-haired young man walk up to Temari, squat down, and carefully help her up.

"This is for you, go back and apply it to the bruises, and it will heal the next day."

He took out a bottle of medicine from his arms, handed it to Temari, and said softly.

"Thank you."

Temari hesitated for a moment and took the medicine bottle.

"No thanks." The boy smiled warmly, like a big brother next door.

Seeing that the young man was a little unfamiliar, Temari was about to ask for the other party's name, but the latter stood up, waved at her, and turned away.

Not far away.

"Do you recognize that?" Kakashi asked again.

"I remember, he's the pocket of the Konoha Orphanage." Tianzo looked at the back of the young man leaving, his eyes flashed, and he told the origin of the young man.

Dou, who suffered amnesia due to injuries when he was young, was taken in by Yakushi Nonoyu, the director of the Konoha Orphanage.

But later, because Tuan Zang wanted to blackmail Ye Naiyu, for the safety of the dean and the orphanage, Dou voluntarily took refuge in Tuan Zang and worked for the latter as a ninja.

Thereupon.

Dou entered the roots, was trained as a spy and left Konoha to collect intelligence in various countries and ninja villages, and is a person who is very good at disguising his whereabouts.

Later, for an unknown reason, Dou betrayed the root organization like Tianzang, and since then he has been out of the control of Tuan Zang and has disappeared.

Unexpectedly, after a few years, he would meet a pocket in Shayin Village.

Tenzo couldn't help but wonder, who is Dou playing for now, and why is he here?

"There's weirdness, follow along."

Kakashi's eyes froze and he made a decision.

After separating from Temari, he walked around the crowded place and walked quickly into a deserted alley.

"Hmph."

He snorted softly, a smile on the corner of his mouth, and put his hand on his glasses, and a cold light flashed under the lenses.

Dou betrayed Tuan Zang because the latter carefully arranged for him to kill each other with Yakushi Ye Naiyu, and Ye Naiyu was a mother-like existence to Dou.

Since that manslaughter, Dou believes that he has lost the meaning of his existence.

However, Orochimaru, who was sent by Danzang to kill him, out of appreciation for Dou's talent, spared Dou's life and invited the latter to join his command.

Since then, Dou has been working for Orochimaru.

He first followed Orochimaru's orders, pretending to follow the Red Sand Scorpion, acting as a double agent to spy on Xiao's intelligence.

With the death of the scorpion, and the disintegration of the Akatsuki organization, Orochimaru fled to Tanokuni and secretly established a small village called Otoshinobi.

Dou's current identity is a spy of Otoshino Village, and this time he was also ordered by Orochimaru to steal a secret of Sand Hidden Village.

The move he deliberately approached Temari just now was because the other party was the daughter of the Wind Shadow.

Dou is a very patient person.

In order not to arouse Temari's suspicions, he played a trick to get away with it, and he didn't even tell the other party his name.

He will gradually approach Temari to make the latter let his guard down, and then use the piece to get what he wants.

Da-da-da.

Suddenly, a trail of footsteps came from outside the alley.

Well?

When he looked back, he found that it was a stranger, and without saying a word, he walked straight towards him.

He frowned, retracting his gaze and preparing to leave.

Unexpectedly, a stranger also appeared in front of him, and the people behind him were in a flanking situation, blocking him.

exposed.

Dou's face changed, and he instantly realized where he was showing his feet.

Before he had time to think about it, his eyes flashed, and several shurikens appeared in the palms of his hands, and they were thrown at the two enemies respectively.

Then there was a "bang", and a cloud of white smoke rose in place.

Under the cover of smoke bombs, they climbed over the fence and tried to escape.

It's a pity that he underestimated the strength of the enemy.

Woohoo.

Several sticks of wood struck from behind him, instantly wrapping around his body and pulling him off the wall.

Then, as soon as he saw a flower, he saw a scarlet three-hooked jade writing wheel.

The next second.

His eyes glazed over, controlled by the other party's illusions.

Subsequently, Kakashi interrogated Dou with the power of the Sharingan, and obtained an important piece of information from the latter-

Orochimaru didn't actually die, and secretly established the Otoshinobi Village.

"Senior, what are you going to do with this guy?" Tenzo asked

Kakashi thought for a moment and said in a deep voice, "It's better not to startle the snake." ”

Boom.

He summoned Parker, the ninja dog he had been raising for many years, and ordered the latter to sniff and remember the smell of the pocket.

Then, Kakashi used an illusion to erase the memory of Dou, leaving the latter where he was, and left with Tenzo.

A moment later.

I woke up and looked around blankly, my head in chaos.

Could it be that I was too tired during this time and accidentally fell asleep?

He patted his head, took off his glasses and wiped them with his handkerchief, still unable to remember what had happened before he fell unconscious.

In desperation, I had to give up for the time being.

Night falls.

In the night sky, dark clouds obscured the moon, and there were only three or three lights left in Shayin Village.

The temperature difference between day and night in the desert area is very large, and the temperature plummets at night, so the villagers of Shayin do not have much entertainment, and they all go to bed early.

When the entire Shayin Village fell into a deep sleep, danger was quietly approaching.

On a sand dune outside the village.

Suddenly, black shadows appeared, and there were hundreds of people in a rough number.

It's the Uchiha clan.

"Let's get started."

Fu Yue looked at the Sand Hidden Village not far away with an expressionless face, and ordered in a cold voice.
