Ninja World: I'm not a man anymore!

Deep in the desert, a group of abandoned buildings stands.

Those buildings are very distinctive, long and thin, like towers standing in a row, forming a unique landscape in the endless and monotonous desert.

This is the ruins of the ancient Loulan Kingdom.

This country once prospered because of the dragon veins buried underground. Its population once increased dramatically and it was prosperous and lively.However, it also attracted the attention of the great powers, and was quickly destroyed by the entry of the Wind Country's army.

Today, in Loulan, there is only eternal desolation and loneliness.

Above the sky, after Kun poked his head out from the clouds, he did not fully appear, but slowly opened his abyss-like mouth.

A figure came out from its mouth. It was Kisame who had created a new shadow clone.

The next second, his clone flew towards the Loulan ruins below, while his main body, Kun, returned to the sea of ​​clouds.

Kisame's plan is very simple, that is to use a clone to enter the Loulan ruins, find the dragon vein and open its seal, and finally let Kun descend and absorb the power of the dragon vein on the spot.

Thirty kilometers, twenty kilometers, ten kilometers...

Kisame was getting closer and closer to the ground.In the process, he activated his Byakugan and could see that a hundred meters deep under Loulan, there was an incredibly huge energy flow, like a dazzling sun, which was emitting a dazzling light that made it difficult for him to look at it for a long time.

That is Dragon Vein, which contains nearly infinite chakra and is powerful enough to distort time and space.

However, Kisame soon discovered that he was not the only one interested in this dragon vein.

It seems to be very lively down there.

Outside the ruins of Loulan, a ninja force of dozens of people set up tents and stationed themselves here.

Kisame secretly monitors.

Although none of these people were wearing ninja uniforms or forehead protectors, Kisame could still tell that they were ninjas from Sunagakure Village.

Because, he saw a woman with short sandy hair in the crowd, with a big belly, holding a little girl and a little boy in each hand.

That woman was the deceased fourth generation Kazekage Rasa's wife - Garura.

The two-year-old girl and one-year-old boy beside her are her eldest daughter Temari and her son Kankuro respectively.As for what she was carrying in her belly, it was naturally her youngest son Gaara.

It seems that when Nagato razed Sunagakure and killed all the villagers of Sunagakure, a small number of survivors escaped and saved the last fire for Sunagakure Village.

In the camp, except for Garura, most of the other Sunagakure ninjas were very busy.They kept going in and out of the Loulan ruins, seemingly looking for something.

"Lord Garuru."

At this time, a young ninja with a bandaged head and a red mark on his right face walked out of the ruins and came to Garura and bowed to her.

"It's Maki, how's the situation inside?" Garuruo asked with concern, showing a kind smile.

Although Maki has just reached full age, he has already been promoted to jounin due to his outstanding performance on the battlefield.The most important thing is that he is loyal to the Fourth Kazekage.

So, when Nagato invaded Sunagakure Village, Maki was tasked with protecting the Kazekage's widow and children.

In the past six months, the group of people wandered around the Kingdom of Wind, evading countless tracking and pursuits along the way, and finally successfully escaped into the depths of the desert and found the Loulan ruins.

Ma Ji and others came here partly to find a safe haven, but more importantly, to find the legendary dragon vein.

Then, use its power to take revenge on Nagato and the Rain Ninja Village!

Facing Garura's inquiry, Ma Ji's face darkened, and he replied with some remorse: "My lord, I'm sorry, I still got nothing today."

"It's okay, Marky."

Hearing this, Jia Ruoluo comforted his subordinates patiently, "Actually, even if you find the dragon vein, I'm afraid you won't be able to open it. I heard that only the Queen of Loulan can unlock the dragon vein seal and release the power within it, but now Where are we going to find the Queen?”

Her implication was to persuade Marky to give up.

After all, searching for dragon veins was Ma Ji and others’ idea from the beginning.As a woman who lost her husband and a mother of three children, Kaura's only wish was to give birth to her baby son safely and not to cause any complications.

What Garuru didn't expect was.

"Sir, according to the latest information obtained from our investigation, the last queen of Loulan was named Sarah. Not only did she not die in the war, but she may have been hiding in the ruins. Our people have already searched the ruins. In some places, I believe she can be found soon.”

Marky said with burning eyes, showing his firm determination.

Oh?

These words were heard by Kisame who was hiding in the dark, and he raised his eyebrows.

Without making any noise, he quietly bypassed the Sunagakure camp and secretly sneaked into the Loulan ruins.

Half an hour later, deep in the ruins.

Kisame came here alone, his leather shoes hitting the ground and crisp footsteps echoing in the empty streets.

Although the buildings on both sides of the street are dilapidated, you can still vaguely see their former glorious appearance.In the past, Loulan, at its peak of development, was as prosperous as Konoha Village.

Kisame seemed to be walking forward aimlessly, but in fact, he had sensed a strange chakra lingering nearby.

The owner of that chakra seemed to have noticed Kisame's arrival, and had been monitoring him in the dark, playing a hide-and-seek game with him.

Click.

Suddenly, there was a crisp sound coming from the corner of the street. It sounded like someone was stepping on a dead branch of a tree that had fallen to the ground.

It was a girl with long dark red hair. She looked about sixteen or seventeen years old, young and beautiful.

Oops.

The girl glanced at the dead branches at her feet, then looked forward, and found that Kisame was looking at her with a smile.

She didn't have time to think about it, turned around and ran, quickly disappearing into the depths of the ruins.

10 minute later.

"hu~hu~"

The girl hid behind a statue in the park, panting with fear, looking back from time to time to make sure the enemy was not following.

She was the last queen of Loulan, the mother of Salla, the previous queen. She was killed by Minister Bai Zu because she saw through the conspiracy.After that, the army of the Kingdom of Wind came and destroyed Loulan like a beast. Only Sarah survived under the desperate protection of her subordinates.

She was the only one left in the Loulan Kingdom.

Although she is a queen, she does not have any subjects.Despite this, Sara has still adhered to the duties of the Queen of Loulan in the past few years——

She lives alone in these ruins, guarding the dragon's veins.

If nothing else happens, this lonely and long life will continue until Sarah dies, until she also dies and leaves this world decades later.

But recently, a group of uninvited guests came from outside.

Sarah speculated that those people came for the Dragon Vein, so she carefully hid in the dark, monitored them for more than two months, and used various means to try to interfere and prevent those people from approaching the Dragon Vein.

She grew up here and was familiar with every corner of the street, so she was able to use the terrain to narrowly escape being hunted by the Sunagakure ninjas several times.

Just like this time.

Thinking of this, Sara's lips curved up, revealing a proud smile.

After all, she was an adolescent girl, and it was too boring to guard the ruins alone for several years.Well now, these guys who come to look for dragon veins have added a lot of fun to Sara's boring life.

However, it turned out that Sarah was happy too early.

"Hello."

Just when Sarah thought she had escaped her pursuer, a voice suddenly came from the side.

Sara was shocked and looked forward with a look of shock, only to find that——

At some point, Kisame appeared quietly in the park, sitting on a bench a few meters away from Sara, crossed his legs and greeted her.

Without saying anything, Sara turned around and ran in the other direction, but after just a few steps, she tripped over the chakra line under her feet and fell to the grass.

Kisame walked up to Sara, stretched out a hand to the girl, and spoke again:

"Don't be nervous, I'm not on the same side as those Sunagakure ninjas, I'm here to help you."

"help me?"

Sara stared at Kisame with a wary look on her face. She did not shake his hand, but frowned and said coldly, "I don't care who you are, you are not welcome here, and I don't need anyone's help."

"No, you need to."

Kisame corrected Sara's idea on the spot and explained to her, "I know you are the Queen of Loulan and you are here to guard the dragon vein. But you don't know that the energy of the dragon vein is very unstable and is very likely to cause time and space chaos, thus Summon people from the future era or from other worlds. Once that happens, there will be a series of chain reactions that will bring disaster to this world. Have you ever thought about these?"

"You...who are you and why are you talking nonsense here?"

Sara looked shocked, not only because the other party revealed her identity, but also because of Kisame's sensational remarks.

"I am a peace-loving person who is committed to maintaining the balance of energy in this world."

Kisame smiled slightly and said enigmatically, "As for whether I am talking nonsense, when you take me to the dragon vein, I will naturally prove it to you, little girl."

"Don't even think about it!" Sarah heard this and immediately refused without hesitation.

When Kisame wasn't paying attention, she climbed up from the grass and ran away into the distance.

Kisame looked at Sara's beautiful back as she escaped, and followed her calmly, putting his hands in his pockets.

Sarah's good luck seemed to have run out today.

She had just escaped from the park, and before she could take a breath, she ran into another group of Sunagakure ninjas.

"Catch her!"

Several Sunagakure ninjas were overjoyed and immediately launched an encirclement formation. After a moderately fierce battle, Sara was quickly captured.

The Queen of Loulan was tied up with chains by the Sunagakure ninja and carried back.

Kisame witnessed all this, but he did not take action, but watched Sara being taken away by the Sunagakure ninja.

Since someone plays the role of the villain, he can save some effort. He only needs to have a oriole behind him to easily pick the fruit at the last moment.

Sara was brought to Garuru by the Sunagakure ninja.

"Your Majesty, please forgive their rudeness and I apologize."

Jia Ruo couldn't bear it when he saw the bruises on Sara's neck from being strangled by the chains, and quickly ordered Maggi on the side to untie the girl's shackles.

"Hmph, stop being so hypocritical. It's unlucky for me to fall into your hands. I can kill or chop him as you please. Anyway, I will never hand over my dragon veins to you."

Sarah turned her head to the side and said stubbornly.

"Really? Don't worry, we have many ways to make you talk." Ma Ji sneered, and even winked at several sand ninjas, indicating that they could use their methods.

Seeing this, Karuo frowned and told Ma Ji again: "Don't embarrass her."

At her request, the Sunagakure ninja finally did not torture Sara, but used genjutsu to interrogate her, and soon learned the location of an underground passage from her.

According to Sarah, the end of that passage is the dragon vein.

After getting this information, all the Sunagakure ninjas were extremely excited and couldn't wait to get the power of the dragon vein and take revenge on the enemy.

So, they immediately escorted Sara towards the underground passage.

Shortly after.

Everyone in Sunagakure came to a dilapidated palace.Stepping into the collapsed door, passing through a hall covered with marble but with cracks on the ground, finally, under the guidance of Sarah, who was controlled by illusion, he entered a room deep in the palace.

Rumble.

When Sarah opened a secret mechanism, the hidden grid on the floor slowly rose, and a deep tunnel suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

Garura is a pregnant woman and has two children to take care of, so her mobility is very inconvenient, so it is impossible to enter the tunnel.

"I'll wait for you here. Be careful when you go down."

She warned Marky, feeling very worried in her brows.

"Sir, don't worry, we will be extremely cautious to obtain the dragon vein."

Maki nodded solemnly and ordered several Sunagakure ninjas to stay and take care of Garura and her two children.

Under Garura's watchful eyes, Sara was the first to jump into the tunnel, followed closely by Maki and others, and the group soon disappeared deep into the tunnel.

"Sir, please rest for a while."

A Sunagakure kunoichi helped Garura, walked to the clean sofa next to her, and asked her to sit down.The other two ninjas were playing with Temari and Kankuro.

Garura glanced at the two children, then leaned on the sofa with a smile, closed his eyes, and planned to take a nap, patiently waiting for the good news from Ma Ji and others.

But at this moment, a sudden change occurred.

Swish!

A ray of sword light wandered around the room and attacked several Sunagakure ninjas. With several screams, they fell down one by one.

The reason why these people were defenseless was because the person who attacked them turned out to be their most trustworthy companion.

The murderer is a young ninja named Yura.

boom!

As the two ninjas collapsed in shock, the hot blood spurted from their necks splashed onto Temari and Kankuro, making the two brats burst into tears.

"Yura, you..."

Kaura opened his eyes wide and stood up from the sofa. He looked at the murderer in front of him with shock and anger who suddenly betrayed and killed his companions.
