Konoha's Way of Death

Chapter 123 The Wind Rises

To the west of the country of fire is the country of rivers, and further west of the country of rivers is the country of wind.

The Kingdom of Wind has a vast territory, and its territory is much larger than the Kingdom of Fire.

But it is useless, because two-thirds of the land in the Kingdom of Wind is desert.

Only the oasis left in the desert can make people survive.

The Hidden Sand Village is located in the Land of Wind, surrounded by a huge stepped earth wall rising from the ground.

The good weather here is sunny. When the weather is bad, the wind will roll up a huge sandstorm and cover everything. It will not be until a few years later that a gust of wind blows to reveal the traces hidden here.

As for the lack of rain, it is impossible to expect a month of rain in a year.

In Sand Hidden Village, Grandma Chiyo walked home with a tired face.

The daimyo of the land of winds has become more and more dissatisfied with Hidden Sand Village recently, and may reduce the village's funds again.

In puppetry, her grandson is more talented than her, and in another ten years, he may be able to become an existence that makes the ninja world tremble.

She gave orders, and the Anbu ninjas quickly dispersed, but the news brought after a long time was that Kazekage was still gone.

Although he was exhausted, he still had a smile on his face when he thought of his grandson.

Amidst the whistling sound of a ghost coming out of a cage, the sound of gravel beating on the window seems to be the return of the dead from hell begging the stranger to open the door and let them go home.

She tossed and turned on the bed, finally trying to get up to see her grandson.

"Yeah, it looks like you are going out, what's the matter?"

Not only that, but also sealed the puppet of that person.

She used to deliver food to her grandson, but since her grandson didn't care about eating and didn't want her to deliver it, she didn't do this kind of thing.

Such golems retain the uniqueness of the ninja before death, such as bloodstains.

"Fortunately, I still have scorpions."

Fortunately, Scorpion seemed to see the fear in her eyes after the frenzy, so he returned to his original state.

Her popularity in the village is no less than Kazekage's.

It is her grandson, Sha Yin's talented puppet master, the Red Sand Scorpion.

So she began to search the entire village, and every time she met a person, whether she was familiar with them or not, the first sentence was: "Excuse me, have you seen my grandson, Xie?"

"Don't be too tired, Scorpion." Chiyo said gently.

"Send someone to look for it."

So she couldn't kill White Fang, let alone trap the village her husband built for revenge.

She is such a ninja, a puppeteer, and a poison master. The white secret skill she masters can control ten puppets at the same time, and she has the ability to break through the city alone.

After the birth of the scorpion, the sun in this house seems to be brighter.

"I have some new ideas and want to go to the warehouse."

But except for occasional visits to some places, he seems to have no friends.

She smiled and could only toss and turn on the bed.

She yelled again, but it was still quiet here.

So I ate dinner alone.

Since you can't see it in the village, look for it outside the village.

When she saw that her grandson had actually learned this forbidden technique, she felt that the world was falling apart.

The so-called human puppet is a puppet made by draining the blood of a human corpse and using the body of a ninja and the mechanism in puppetry.

Anbu came back soon, but the response he brought was: Kazekage was not at home.

So she patted the table and everyone fell silent.

When she finally arrived at the warehouse, she pushed open the door, and saw countless finished and semi-finished puppets hanging in rows like mummified corpses hung from a tree. There were countless limbs scattered on the ground, which were the incomplete parts of the puppets. , or props used in research.

But after thinking about it, she lay back down again.

The desert flower will always wither, but as long as it is alive, it cannot let go of all this.

Thinking of this, she breathed a sigh of relief, and after tidying up the kitchen, she prepared the meals.

If Sha Yin is strong enough, she will naturally agree in every possible way.

The only guy who can be regarded as a friend has already been dealt with by him, and there is not even a corpse left.

"Yes."

Anbu left immediately, and the meeting ended before it even started.

Along the way, the villagers would greet her respectfully when they saw her, and she would respond with a smile.

"You're back, Grandma."

Why was that man able to gain such a reputation on the battlefield of Yinsha?
In addition to super strength, it is also because the man's fighting style is too restrained.

Ke Sayin's current situation makes it impossible for her to retreat behind the scenes even if she has conflicts with Kazekage.

Not worried, just feeling alone.

The wind and sand tonight seemed to be more manic than ever. Apart from the whistling of the wind, the sand engulfed in it was constantly eroding the houses and everything else that was tangible.

She knew that since the news of the parents' departure reached the child's ears, the child's psychology had changed.

She frowned, thinking: "Using this method to gather power seems a bit too petty."

She sighed, feeling that Fengying is really getting more and more nonsense now.

It was finally dawn, and the wind and sand last night seemed to be the roar of evil spirits. When the sky was illuminated by the sun, evil spirits could only return to hell.

After Xie responded, he opened the door and left.

She started running towards the village entrance.

Looking at the closed door, Chiyo sighed.

But this kind of puppetry is too weird and bloody, and it has long been banned by Shayin Village.

Once upon a time, this place should be full of laughter and laughter. The son is a gentle and outstanding ninja, and the daughter-in-law is also gentle and full of respect for her.

Xie welcomed Chiyo inside, then bowed and said, "Then, I'll go first, it may take a lot of time, so don't wait for me to eat, if it's too late, I'll rest in the warehouse, don't worry."

"The whole village doesn't see him. What the hell is Fengying doing? Does she still have the mind to go out at this time?"

But all of this can't go back.

But after waiting for a long time, Fengying still didn't come, and the meeting room has changed from quiet to noisy at the beginning.

At the beginning, he would use puppetry to make the bodies of mutilated ninjas so that they could have legs and feet like ordinary people.

She thought, closing her eyes, but she couldn't fall asleep.

In addition to escapism, Shayin relied on puppetry and poison.

The third generation of Kazekage has already begun to be dissatisfied with her, because her reputation is too high, and she has threatened Kazekage to a certain extent.

Her son and daughter-in-law died in World War II a few years ago, and it was Konoha's hero, "White Fang" Hatake Sakumo, who killed them.

The only thing that comforts him is that her grandson is very talented.

"Go to Master Fengying's house and have a look."

Not only because she is the first generation Kazekage's wife, but also because of her strength and contribution.

Anbu, who was looking for Kazekage, met her at the entrance of the village.

When Chiyo went to visit him some time ago, she found that Scorpion had made the man's body into a human puppet.

These things made her head explode, but she couldn't stop listening.

When she got home, she opened the door, and a young man with red hair appeared, with a gentle and handsome appearance, about sixteen or seventeen years old.

But when she walked into the conference room, all the high-level officials had arrived, but Fengying hadn't appeared yet.

Today is another busy day, and the discussion is still on how Sain should respond if the daimyo of the land of wind cuts the funds.

But when she returned home, she found that the house was as deserted as ever. Besides, what was more important was that there was no trace of Xie's return.

But a few days ago, after a small-scale battle, one of his friends came back seriously injured. Before he died, he dragged his body and told him "I don't want to die", and he changed.

"It seems that the scorpion will not come back."

She used an affirmative tone, and she seemed lonely alone in the whole house.

After finishing speaking, he said to Anbu Ninja: "Here, all unemployed ninjas will go out of the village in small groups to look for Kazekage."

She was a little angry and a little uneasy.

"Scorpion, are you there?"

Thinking of this, she sighed.

When she was a child, she handed over the puppet art to Xie. She didn't expect that soon after, Xie used the eliminated materials to make two puppets - in the shape of his parents.

The sky was getting darker and darker, until the whole village fell into silence, only the sound of sandstorms buried some discordant voices, she turned and went back to sleep.

"Master Fengying couldn't find it. The meeting is postponed. Let's go back and sort out our thoughts."

Her heart sank slowly, like a bucket with an exposed bottom floating on the surface of the sea. When there was more and more water, the bucket would sink continuously until it fell to the bottom of the sea and was covered by sand.

When the dishes were getting cold and Xie still didn't come back, she knew that her grandson was immersed in puppetry again.

The warehouse is very dark, plus this scene, except for the lack of bloody smell, it looks like a Shura hell.

Fortunately, his grandson is a sensible child and has not done anything to embarrass her.

She used to be the wife of the first generation of Kazekage, and now even though it is the third generation of Kazekage's ruling period, she still needs to help.

And ever since he knew about his parents, this child has become too obsessed with puppetry.

Her heart became more and more restless, and she ran towards the warehouse.

Of course she harbored hatred, wishing to drink his blood and eat his flesh, but she couldn't kill that man by herself.

Seeing Scorpion holding the scroll and looking like he was about to go out, Chiyo couldn't help asking.

She shouted, her tone was a little urgent, but no one responded.

Fengying has hinted more than once to her and her younger brother Hai Laozang to let them retire.

Due to her inability to avenge his parents, out of guilt towards her grandson, and out of love for her grandson, she always doted on him.

"Scorpion will feel guilty and worried if he sees me."

These days, the senior officials of Hidden Sand Village have been discussing this matter. Some people want to talk about the name of the Land of Wind, and some people are planning for the worst, talking about what should Hidden Sand Village do if the funds are cut. how to respond.

No one has seen a scorpion today.

"scorpion?"

"Lord Chiyo, we failed to find Kazekage-sama, but there are traces of battle in the north."

And if you choose the puppet technique to become a puppet master, the ninja's close combat ability will become a flaw, especially in the face of assassin ninjas.

But she didn't care about these, not only because she was used to it, but more importantly, the person she wanted to see was not in it.

So she called Anbu.

However, her melee ability is also her weakness, and most puppet masters are like this.

So she left and ran to the place Xie liked to go, or his friend's house.

But she was disappointed.

Hearing this, Chiyo immediately changed direction and headed there.

Not for Kazekage, but to find traces of Scorpion.

Even though it doesn't seem to have anything to do with scorpions there.

It was clear that the sky was clear, but a gust of wind blew by, and the wind and sand hit his face, but it brought endless chill.

got windy!
