Escape From Konoha

Although Luo Sha approved the actions of the "Alliance" of the ghost kingdom on the surface, his vigilance and fear in his heart did not abate slightly.

On the contrary, following the sudden "alliance" of the ghost kingdom, they became more concerned about the affairs of the ghost kingdom.

Just as the Kingdom of Ghosts refused to join forces because it had no tailed beasts in the past, there is still no reason for the Kingdom of Ghosts to get involved.

But the Kingdom of Ghosts did not do this, but sent a team to seek cooperation, which is full of weirdness no matter how you look at it.

However, before he could figure out the purpose of the ghost country, Luo Sha still calmly started talking to Cai, showing his sincerity, trying to extract some useful information from the other party.

However, Caizao was prepared for this point.

When it comes to sensitive matters, he just responds with silence or shaking his head.

If you talk too much, you will lose. Once you are brought into the rhythm by Luo Sha's words, something may be revealed.

"Now that Maggie is safe, the next step is to consider how to rescue Gaara. The enemies to deal with are very powerful, especially scorpions. Once they are touched by his poison, the scratches will also cause fatal injuries. I would like some help from you on this point."

Luo Sha knew that she could not get more information from Cai, so she turned to this topic.

But when he said this, his eyes were more on Hanami Haruka who was behind Cai.

The other party, Xiaolu, easily eliminated Yanyin's poisonous poison just now.

If you want to deal with the scorpion, you may need the assistance of the opponent's medical ninjutsu.

"Don't worry, Kazekage-sama, give me about two days to make a certain amount of antidote."

Huajian Haruka said so.

"Two days?"

Luo Sha frowned, feeling dissatisfied with this time.

"I was able to solve the poison just now, relying on my own blood inheritance limit, so there is no need for complicated analysis work. But for others, when I happen to be unable to treat it in time, I must use an antidote, plus The conditions here are simple, and the herbs that can be collected are not complete, and the process of analysis and preparation will be very cumbersome."

Huajian Yao explained to Luo Sha.

In fact, the two days are also based on an optimistic situation.

If there is another deviation during the period, it is very likely that the time for the antidote to come out will be later.

"Is that so?"

Hearing Hua Jianyao's explanation, Luo Sha's face softened slightly.

Because of Gaara, he was a little too impatient.

When dealing with Scorpion and Didara, who was born in Iwakaku, one must not be impatient, and must calm down and think about countermeasures.

"I understand, then I will trouble you here. I will lead the team to go first."

Luo Sha distributes the work.

Time was tight, and he had no time to wait for Hanami Haruka to successfully produce the antidote.

If you waste a little more time now, Gaara might be a little more dangerous.

"But, in this case..."

Huajian Haruka was about to say something, but Cai interrupted:

"Just follow Kazekage-dono's arrangement. Hanami, you and Kirie will stay and make an antidote together. I, Karin, and Yamazaki will follow Kazekage-dono to rescue Ichio Jinchuriki."

Then, Cai looked at Luo Sha.

"Is it okay to distribute like this, Your Excellency Kazekage?"

"It's the best. When the time comes to search for work, you may need to rely on your supercilious eyes."

Luo Sha nodded, and had no objection to Cai's arrangement.

"Father, I too—"

Temari stepped forward, about to speak.

"No, you stay and take care of Maki. Gaara, and Kankuro's affairs, leave it to me to handle."

Luo Sha forcibly stopped, his voice was cold and hard.

Prepare for the worst. Gaara and Kankuro may both die in this battle. He doesn't want his only daughter to die on the battlefield.

Temari wanted to argue with Luo Sha, but seeing Luo Sha's firm eyes, he lowered his head silently, knowing that no matter how much he begged, it would be of no avail.

Luo Sha will not let her participate in this operation.

"Elder Chidai, Elder Ebino, and everyone from the Kingdom of Ghosts, let's take action now."

Luo Sha acted resolutely, and immediately led Sha Yin Anbu to rush out of the cave after giving the instructions.

Chiyo, Cai and the others looked at each other, followed Luo Sha and ran out to find Gaara.

Watching Luo Sha and the others leave, Temari silently prayed in his heart that they would be safe.

"Let's transfer here too. There is a hidden sand stronghold tens of kilometers to the west. There should be herbs you need to make antidotes there."

Temari knew that it was not suitable to be sad at this time, so he immediately calmed down and said to Hanami Haruka.

After that, she began to order the sand ninja who stayed behind to carry out the transfer work, whether it was the wounded Markey or the medical tools here, all had to be taken away.

"good."

Hua Jianyao didn't refuse, and nodded in agreement.

"Speaking of which, is it really okay for you to absorb those poisons into your body?"

Before moving the base, Temari asked such a question.

That was a jonin who was extremely resistant to poison, and she was tortured to death. She was a little worried that Hanami Haruka would not be able to control the poison.

It's not that she cares about Hua Jianyao's life safety, but that the next antidote must be used by the other party.

If something unexpected happens during the process, there will inevitably be some troubles.

"Don't worry, although this poison is powerful, it's still within the tolerance range of my body's immune system. If I hadn't confirmed this, I wouldn't take the risk of absorbing the poison into my body."

Huajian smiled back.

...

"By the way, is it really good to go directly like this? That guy called Scorpion is a master of poison, and he once assassinated the third Kazekage of Sand Hidden."

The team hung behind Luo Sha and the other Sand Shinobi and advanced steadily.

Yamazaki asked about the worries in his heart.

Judging from the information obtained so far, the ninjas they will deal with next are not simple characters.

Needless to say, Didala, who was from the Iwagakure Demolition Unit, the other person, the Red Sand Scorpion, had killed Kazekage, one of the Five Kages, by himself in the past.

No matter what method the other party took at that time, killing Fengying meant that the other party was an extremely dangerous person.

The ninjas who fought with the past exist on two levels.

"Yes, although I am good at healing, detoxification is not my area of ​​expertise."

Xianglin also expressed the worries in her heart.

After all, they are still ninjas in the growth stage, although compared with their peers, they are far ahead in strength.

However, if a ninja of Wukage's level is used as an opponent, even if the three of them join forces, the chances of winning are extremely slim.

And this slim chance of winning is still based on Cai's long-range sniper ability.

In addition, in the next battle, there can't be any scratches, otherwise the body will be corroded by the enemy's poison, which will further increase the difficulty of the battle.

"Don't worry about this. I have a special medical charm on me. It not only has the effect of healing, but also can cure all poisons. Although there is not much in it, it is enough for the three of us."

Cai said to Xiang Rin and Yamazaki Hisao to let them relax.

Without this hole card, no matter what, he would not take the lead in bringing Xiang Rin and Yamazaki Hisashi to join Luo Sha's advance search force, but obediently wait for Hanami Haruka's antidote to be produced before starting to act.

He still wouldn't risk the lives of himself and his team members in order to wipe out the enemy.

"So there is still such a method? Could it be that the medical talisman of the medical department can be put into use?"

Xianglin opened her mouth wide in surprise.

Although she is a medical ninja, she is more of a part-time medical ninja, and her job is still doing the old job of the Uzumaki clan - the research and use of sealing techniques.

"It is said that this is a special medical talisman. If the mass-produced medical talisman of the medical department is to be put into use, it may take a while. For the specific situation, you should ask Hana Jian. She is in charge of researching medical treatment. One of the project team members of Fu."

Cai replied.

"I always feel that this mission is a bit out of bounds for us."

Yamazaki clicked his lips for a long time.

Although with the strength of their team, it is not difficult to complete the S-level mission.

But S-level tasks are also divided into difficulty levels.

Strictly speaking, tasks like this to deal with five-kage-level ninjas are beyond the scope of S-level tasks.

"That's why we need to rely on the power of Sand Hidden and Kazekage. We just need to put cold shots behind us. After all, in order to regain Yiwei, they will definitely fight to the death."

Cai calmly analyzed.

His purpose was to reduce the staff of the Akatsuki organization, not to rescue Yiwei at all, and it was not even his consideration that Yiwei would fall into anyone's hands.

"However, now we also have to consider the worst possibility."

Cai added this sentence at the end.

"Worst possibility?"

Karin and Yamazaki tilted their heads, puzzled by what Sai said.

"Ichio Gaara, if the target has missed once before, the opponent will also consider that Sand Hikaku will provide a large number of reinforcements... So, the guys to deal with next may not only be the two in the intelligence."

Maybe, other Akatsuki members will also get involved.

After all, Shayin has already invested so much power, if Akatsuki wants to take back the tail without any risk, it is reasonable to suddenly reinforce at this time.

It also means that it will be more difficult to complete this task.

"Captain, can I go back now?"

The corner of Yamazaki's mouth twitched.

The two of them let their side be fully armed, and even dispatched Kazekage, one of the Five Kages.

If the enemy also sends reinforcements, no matter how you look at them, there is no chance of winning, and the entire army may be wiped out.

"Welcome to the prison in the military region, Yamazaki."

Cai silently said such a sentence.

"...That's right, it seems that I can only bite the bullet, and I hope you don't come to trouble the ninja. No, it's best that this is just your unrealistic guess, captain, not the truth. Miko-sama, please protect me Bar!"

Yamazaki put his hands together, closed his eyes, and began to pray while he was on his way.

"What a useless guy."

Xiang Rin glanced at Yamazaki in disgust.

"I can't help it. I don't have as much power as you, and I'm still the holder of the blood succession limit. As an ordinary person, I always feel that this operation is completely redundant."

Yamazaki opened his eyes, shrugged his shoulders, and lowered his clasped palms.

"Then, I'll count on you for time and space support. As long as you stay in the sky honestly, the danger will be greatly reduced. Xiang Rin is responsible for the frontal containment, and I will snipe the enemy."

Cai said so.

As long as he finds a gap to snipe, the so-called ninjas who rival the Five Kages are nothing but mortal bodies, unable to withstand chakra bullets made of steel.

In just a few words, Cai determined the next formation deployment.

This is the safest strategy. With a sniper rifle and a blood follower who has blind eyes, he can use the 'distance' to forcibly make up for the gap in strength with the powerful ninja. There is no need to close the distance and confront the enemy head-on.

Konoha.

"Tsunade!"

The sudden shout made Tsunade dozed off in the office at noon, sucked the saliva flowing from his mouth, sat upright on the office chair, and looked at the consultant duo who broke in suddenly.

"Yo, what wind brought you two here, why, have you had lunch yet?"

Tsunade wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, and asked the duo of consultants who barged in with a bad face.

"Now is not the time to talk about these things. You should have heard about the matter of Sand Yin Village. Shikajiu is really too immature to do things. How can Naruto be involved in the rescue of Sand Yin Yiwei Jinchuriki? Isn't that a sheep into a tiger's mouth?"

Turning to bed Xiaochun's tone was low, with a strong sense of questioning.

Questioning Tsunade's laxity, such a serious flaw occurred.

"So, as far as the two of you are concerned, what do you think should be the best?"

Tsunade took a sip of tea calmly, and asked the two consultants for their opinions.

"Of course it is to bring Naruto back immediately, and then dispatch the village's elite ninjas to protect him. In addition, he will be sentenced to Shikajiu's crime of dereliction of duty. As Konoha's Jonin squad leader, he is acting like a child. , Putting Renjuri in a dangerous situation is really unreasonable."

Mitomonyan followed up on Koharu's words, and looked directly at Tsunade.

"So, do you want me, Hokage, to be relieved of my job at that time, and I only need to protect Jinchuriki?"

Tsunade asked unhurriedly.

"...Uh, that's not what we meant..."

"Then what do you mean? It is you who want Naruto to become stronger and become the pillar of the village. It is you who prevent him from going to the front line to fight, and put him in the rear as a greenhouse flower to support. If this is the case, why bother, let him learn how to be clever Mushan’s fairy art? Wouldn’t it be more convenient to just let him eat, drink and have fun in the village, just as a container for tailed beasts? Moreover, it also saves a lot of resources, which can be distributed to other people.”

Tsunade responded calmly, without any signs of impatience.

"This... In short, Lu Jiu handled this matter in a very messy manner. The power of that organization is unfathomable, and his thoughts were ill-considered."

After turning to bed, Xiaochun faltered and faltered, and his voice also quieted down.

"I have calculated that the various teacher resources and site fees invested in Naruto over the years can at least train hundreds of elite ninjas for the village. Your idea is still that you plan to invest all these things in, Is it acceptable to get a ninja that can't be used to fight?"

Tsunade continued to ask indifferently, with a hint of coldness in his tone.

"This...we are only for the village, but Renzhuli..."

"For the sake of the village, we should let Naruto grow, instead of arguing about these meaningless things. If you want to go your own way and insist on cultivating Jinchuriki as a useless tool that cannot fight, then I can resign and quit Hokage. Work, you can manage it. I have said long ago that the current era is no longer popular like yours. "

Tsunade stood up, walked to the window, turned his back to the two consultants, and looked out at the snowy scenery outside the window.

Mitomon Yan and Zhuannian Xiaochun fell silent.

They just want to open the windows, but Tsunade wants to lift the roof... If this goes on, both sides will only lose.

"We will discuss this matter with Danzo, and he is certainly not willing to put Renzhuli on the battlefield at this time."

Attempt to use the militant faction leader to put pressure on Tsunade.

However, Tsunade just sneered silently, and completely ignored the threat of no pressure from the two.

"And you are secretly expanding the scale of Anbu. We already know that if you don't restrain yourself, it will destroy the balance of the village sooner or later. This is against the original purpose of Hiruza, and it is also not in line with Hokage's work norms. You can do it yourself Bar."

After finishing speaking, the two advisors knew that Tsunade had made up his mind and could not find a breakthrough here, so they turned and left.

Hearing the sound of closing the door behind him, Tsunade just still stared at the snowy scenery outside the window, and sighed:

"Alas, power..."

◎

"Art is a blast!"

Countless small white birds rushed down from the sky and landed among the rocks.

"drink!"

Accompanied by loud shouts, a series of flashes of flame suddenly erupted from the endless rocks, and at the same time, a chain of explosions was carried out.

The towering rocks collapsed one by one, and the entire terrain was brutally transformed in an instant.

Didara, who rode with Scorpion on a huge white bird pendulum, looked at the masterpiece he created and nodded with great satisfaction.

Satisfied with the 'work' in front of me.

...

"That guy named Deidara is really a reckless explosive maniac...and that idiot Kankuro was caught. He should have been killed if he knew it earlier, so as not to add trouble to me now."

Gaara, who was hiding behind a tall mountain rock, opened his closed eyes with murderous words in his mouth.

A naked eyeball floated down from the sky and landed on Gaara's outstretched palm.

It is the third eye formed by his ninjutsu.

Can remotely monitor the movement of the enemy.

Because of this kind of ninjutsu, he can know in real time where Didala and Scorpion are, and lock the target position so that he can hide or attack.

After the eyeballs landed on Gaara's palm, they turned into grains of fine sand and were blown away by the wind.

Gaara walks towards the deep mountain with a gourd on his back.

It is no longer a question of whether he is reluctant to deal with two people at the same time by himself, but it is impossible to do it at all.

In terms of feeling, the other person is more dangerous than Didala.

Even if the good-for-nothing brother Kankuro is to be saved, a favorable environment needs to be created in advance.

If you go up rashly, you will only throw yourself into a trap.

...

"Sure enough, Brother Scorpion, the aesthetics that rises at the moment of the explosion is the ultimate art. Hmm."

On the back of the bird in the sky, Didara was intoxicated by his "artistic creation" and couldn't extricate himself.

Xie glanced at him coldly, and said, "Then, what about the traces of Renzhuli? Now is not the time to discuss art. Moreover, your art is too simple and crude to be called art at all. Art that stays in a moment has no worthless."

"It is precisely because of this that we can leave a splendid trace in this world. In this regard, Brother Xie and I still have a hard time getting along."

Deidara sighed regretfully.

However, Xie is right, now is not the time to argue whose works are more artistic.

You have to get Renzhuriki into your hands as soon as possible.

"That one tail Jinchuriki, to be honest, it's a bit difficult for me to deal with it alone. And I don't know where it's hiding, so let me blow up this place. Hmm."

Didara's gaze swept across the endless rocky area, itching to make an earth-shattering artistic 'masterpiece'.

"Don't mess around, your art is too ostentatious, enough is enough, don't involve the ninjas of Yanyin. I don't want to clean up the mess for you then."

Scorpion stopped Didara's willful and troublesome behavior.

Although doing so did force Jinchuriki out of this complex terrain, it would inevitably attract the investigation of the Iwagakure ninja.

Currently, Sand Yin and Yan Yin are in an alliance state, and the leak of Deidara's information is likely to be done by Yan Yin. Based on this situation, it is definitely not a good thing for them to let the ninjas of the two villages merge.

"Indeed, that old man's dust escape is very troublesome, and it would be terrible to be targeted."

Seemingly reminded of some shadow, Didala's high mood gradually calmed down.

"In that case, let's use this hostage. Hmm."

Deidara pointed at Kankuro behind him.

The other party had already woken up, but his hands were twisted off, and the rest of his body was tightly bound with hard ropes. In addition, Scorpion injected him with anesthesia. Even if he woke up, he could only stare at him without any resistance. .

It is the best bait to lure Renzhuli to make a shot.

"Then let Zhuli know where we are, or find the other party first, so that the hostage can play a role. In my opinion, the other party will not take the initiative to attack, but let us find him."

Scorpion pondered for a moment.

"But such a big place is hard to find."

"Baijue will come here soon. It's only a matter of time before we find Jinchuriki. I'm more worried. Before that, other guys will come to make trouble. For example, Kazekage of Sand Hidden, that is a ninja that is difficult to deal with."

Scorpion thought about it.

If Kazekage and Jinchuriki join forces, the difficulty for him and Didara to capture Jinchuriki will rise sharply.

"Should I stop them?"

"No, I have other plans. Maybe this is a good opportunity. With luck, I can add another Fengying to my collection."

Listening to the exchange between Didara and Scorpion, Kankuro's worry was beyond words, but right now he can't do anything, he can only watch the two vicious plans being carried out.
