Hatake Kurone who traveled through the ninja world

"Thank you Kazekage. Although we made some efforts last time, we mainly relied on Granny Chiyo." I smiled and said politely, "Naruto went to retreat to practice, so he didn't come this time."

Gaara looked a little disappointed when he heard that Naruto didn't come, but he was the Kazekage after all, so he couldn't lose his composure in front of us, so his disappointed expression disappeared in an instant.

"It seems that Naruto is also getting stronger, so I have to work hard!" Gaara said with a smile, and then changed the subject, "It's windy and sandy outside, come on, let's go inside and talk about business."

"Okay! Kai, please do some security work outside with the three brats." I turned around and said, although Kai and I are both ordinary waiting jounin and have no relationship between superiors and subordinates, I am the captain of this operation. Nature can command everyone. Kai is not involved in tactical command, so it only takes me and Yamato to talk to the Kazekage.

"Okay!" Kai didn't have any objections. He nodded with a smile and waved his hand. The three people in Kai's class spread out and each found a position to be on guard.

The buildings in the Kingdom of Winds look like a big earth-yellow ball from the outside. They are extremely weathered and the living environment feels very bad. However, once you enter the interior, you will find a different world. The interior is very spacious, bright and warm, which is in sharp contrast to the sandy outside, like two worlds.

"Lord Kazekage, I have roughly read the specific situation in the mission scroll. Since the traces of Akatsuki were found in the Kingdom of Wind, your search team should have more or less grasped some clues. Please inform Lord Kazekage. ." I have carried out this kind of cross-country reconnaissance mission countless times, but this is the first time I have directly inquired about the situation with the leader of a ninja village like this.

"Since the Hokage has given you a mission, I will not describe the details of what happened. Basically, Konoha's ANBU tracked Akatsuki, and then pursued them all the way to the Kingdom of Wind. After getting my permission and support, they went deep into We entered the desert hinterland of the Kingdom of Wind, and then the whole army was wiped out inside. Fortunately, the information was sent out in time." Gaara held his face in his hands and said expressionlessly, "As for the search team, I am very ashamed. The last time Akatsuki attacked the village, many ninjas in our village were afraid of Akatsuki, so only a small number of people participated in the search team this time."

"Does that mean we haven't found any clues?" I frowned. I didn't expect Akatsuki to have left such a deep impression on the ninjas of Sunagakure Village, even to the point where talking about Akatsuki changed her face. It seems that we can't count on it. What a help they were.

"It can't be said that. Under the leadership of Kankuro, our search team discovered the ruins of an ancient city where Akatsuki disappeared. It is very old, at least more than a thousand years ago." Gaara continued.

"Ancient ruins from a thousand years ago?" Gaara's words surprised me, and then I thought about it, "Why did Akatsuki go to the ruins? Is there any ulterior secret in this ruins?"

The money-grubbing Kokaku has long since burped, so it is unlikely that Akatsuki went to the ruins to find some gold and silver jewelry. So what is it for? Is there something weird about this ruins? For example, something as heaven-defying as Loulan's dragon vein that reverses time and space. If that's really the case, then I really have to go and see it. In my impression, there is no similar thing in the original work, but I am not sure. Who knows what the butterfly effect caused by my appearance will turn into in reality.

"Are there any records or legends about that ruins in Sand Hidden Village and the Kingdom of Wind? This may be a very important clue. I suspect Akatsuki may be working on some secret weapon." I said seriously.

"There must be no written records anymore. The age of that ruins is too old. It is completely beyond the scope of written history. It is even as old as the legendary Sage of Six Paths." Gaara shook his head, and suddenly the conversation changed. "But as for legends, I heard from Ebizou-senpai, the younger brother of Granny Chiyo, that he heard a legend told by an old man in the village when he was very young."

"Grandma Qianyo's brother, when he was a child, other old people said that this time span is nearly a hundred years. I don't know the credibility of this legend..." I scratched my head and smiled awkwardly, "You go on."

"I don't know the authenticity of this legend, so I don't have to put too much hope in it. After all, it's just a legend." Gaara stood up, walked to the window, looked out the window, and began to narrate, "Legend has it that in ancient times, there was a The monster named Baimugui will grow an eye every time it eats a person, and over time, its whole body will be covered with strange eyeballs."

"Damn it, that's not..." I suddenly thought of Danzo and almost let it slip, so I quickly answered, "That's so perverted..."

Gaara glared at me, and I quickly realized that I was being abrupt and it would be rude to interrupt someone else, let alone the other person was the Kazekage, so I immediately apologized.

"It's okay, I'll continue talking..." Gaara was also completely immersed in this myth and legend, and continued to talk without thinking too much, "This monster is very cruel, and often sneaks up late at night when the wind is dark and windy. This person caused great panic to the farmers at that time. So the farmers united and used a bold man as bait to lure out the Hundred-Eyed Ghost. However, something more terrifying happened, whether it was chopping with knives and axes, or burning When the water flooded, every time people killed the Hundred-Eyed Ghost, it would always come back to life and continue killing. Then, the unbearable farmers moved one tribe after another to far away places, and in the end, only an unknown person was left. The famous small tribe had not had time to move away. That night, the Hundred-Eyed Ghost came to this small tribe and prepared to continue the massacre. However, a traveler who stayed overnight in this small tribe stepped forward and not only killed the Hundred-Eyed Ghost again, but also discovered The secret of the immortality of the Hundred-Eyed Ghost. It turns out that every time the Hundred-Eyed Ghost is killed, it can return to the state before being killed by closing one eye. As long as there are still eyes in the body, it can be resurrected in an infinite cycle."

"What!?" I was stunned. Why did this Hundred-Eyed Ghost's move sound...so similar to the Sharingan's pupil technique...Where's Izanagi?

Gaara didn't notice my shocked expression, and continued to talk to himself: "After discovering this secret, the mysterious traveler gave up the useless method of killing the Hundred-Eyed Ghost, and instead used some kind of sealing technique. He sealed the Hundred-Eyed Ghost, and then built a very deep underground palace to imprison him permanently. He also let the people of that tribe live in the underground palace and guarded it for generations. He also named the tribe Andiris, which means Infinite loop."

"What happened next?" I couldn't help but ask, "Who was that mysterious man?"

"The true identity of that mysterious man is no longer known. Some say he is the Sage of Six Paths, some say he is Monzaemon, and some say he is a reclusive master. In short, there is no unified theory." Gaara shook his head. Shaking his head, "After doing this, the mysterious man left Andres. But the good times did not last long. A few years later, several young people in Andres wanted to gain the ability of the Hundred-Eyed Ghost, so they sneaked into the underground palace. As a result, this tribe disappeared into the vast desert, and there are no records anymore. Only this story has been passed down."

"What happened after entering the underground palace?" I was a little curious.

"This legend ended abruptly here, but based on the location and age of the ruins, I speculate that it is Andris." Gaara suddenly turned to face me, with a very strange expression, "As for what is in the underground palace, Go in and take a look, won’t you know?”
