[Naruto] The Disaster of the Red Sand Scorpion

At five o'clock in the morning, the sun shines faintly from behind the mist, with a little warmth. Accompanied by the chirping of cicadas, Naruto yawned in waves.

Xie stood on the bridge with a calm expression, and the resentment emanating from his body invaded the other two as if it had substance, and the latter secretly moved away from him.

Xie really couldn't figure out why he didn't change it back this time. What was wrong with that little girl? Or is it that it can’t be exchanged? He was already very worried about this matter and had been waiting for that Hatake for an hour, but the guy was still missing. Scorpion was now eager to find Kakashi and kill him.

"S-Sasuke." Naruto shuddered, and he quietly came to Sasuke's side, "Do you think Sakura-chan is scary today?"

What he thought was very quiet was heard very clearly even by Xie, who's face turned even darker.

Assistant Sao ignored Naruto. He pushed Naruto away and walked towards Scorpion. He said with a cold face: "Let's compete."

Huh?

Xie Xie smiled: "Just the way you are now?"

The young man couldn't bear to hear such words with a disdainful tone, and Sasuke's fighting spirit was suddenly aroused.

He took out a kunai from his ninja bag and looked directly at Scorpion with his deep eyes.

Xie felt that Hatake wouldn't be able to come for a while, so it would be better to have a fight with this Uchiha to vent his anger.

So he accepted Sasuke's battle message: "Come on, Uchiha brat."

After hearing what Scorpion said, Sasuke immediately threw the kunai in Scorpion's direction. Scorpion jumped back a few steps and dodged the sharp weapon.

"Art fire escape ho fireball."

The next second, an overwhelming heat wave surged toward Scorpion. He stared at the fireball without blinking, and only when the flames were about to lick his cherry hair, he slowly dodged away.

However, he forgot about the length of the girl's hair. When he jumped to the left, Sakura's hair flowed to the right, directly facing the flames, and then most of it was burned off.

scorpion:"……"

Naruto, who was confused, didn't react until he saw this. He angrily said to Sasuke: "Sasuke, don't hurt Sakura-chan!"

Sasuke replied quickly: "Idiot." Then he looked at Scorpion, hesitating to speak, and finally pursed his lips.

Scorpion, who smelled a burning smell, looked down and saw that his waist-length hair had been burnt to shoulder length, and the ends of his hair were still a little curly. Mistakenly, he got up late this morning because he never liked being waited for, so he went out before he could tie his hair. As a result...he remembered that the little girl took good care of her hair...

Xie pretended that nothing happened and asked with a half-smile: "Is this all you have?"

Sasuke was brought to this topic easily, and he asked angrily, "Are you looking down on me?"

"I didn't take you seriously at all."

Hearing Scorpion's arrogant sneer, Sasuke's pupils tightened suddenly. He looked at his female teammate, and the words that person said in the same tone as Sakura suddenly rang in his mind - "My stupid brother. "

There was a faint red color in the depths of the dark pupils, but Sasuke quickly suppressed the anger.

Scorpion smacked his lips in disappointment, he thought he could see Uchiha's Sharingan. But it doesn't matter, it's his turn to attack.

Chakra lines were connected to Naruto's limbs, and Scorpion temporarily regarded this person as his puppet. Amid Naruto's confused questions, Scorpion controlled him to attack Sasuke.

Seeing that Naruto was the one taking the lead, Sasuke threw the kunai at Naruto with greater confidence.

"Wait, Sakura-chan, Sasuke! There's no need to fight!"

The two of them turned a deaf ear to Naruto's words, and Scorpion even made a request to Naruto: "Create a few clones."

Although he didn't understand why he did this, Naruto obediently created two clones with shadow clones. Then the clone was connected by the chakra line again, and was controlled by Scorpion to attack Sasuke from three sides.

It's a pity that Naruto is not one of his group of modified puppets. He is not very mobile and does no harm, so he can only fight Sasuke in hand-to-hand combat.

Scorpion controlled one of the clones to hold Sasuke's head. After Sasuke knocked the clone away with a palm, the clone in front of him shook his hands into a fist and pointed it directly at Sasuke's face. Sasuke ducked back, dodged the attack, and kicked the clone apart. At this moment, Naruto dropped from the sky and hit him hard in the stomach.

Sasuke, who was knocked to the ground, gave Naruto a backhand elbow, and the latter was pulled away. Sasuke took the opportunity to jump up, but was pulled away by the chakra thread that was wrapped around him at some point, and hit Naruto who was waiting there.

"You... the tail end of a crane!"

Naruto's back was burning with pain at the moment, and he was not happy when he heard Sasuke's words. Sasuke only felt that it was embarrassing to let Naruto act as a human shield, and his stomach hurt from being hit by Naruto. No matter who the culprit was, the two just started fighting.

scorpion:"……"

Scorpion used chakra lines to separate them. The two glared at each other fiercely. Naruto said to Scorpion: "This is a duel between men. Sakura-chan, please don't interfere."

Scorpion's little temper suddenly came up, and Sasuke couldn't control it, so he manipulated Naruto to crash into Sasuke. Sasuke had to dodge Naruto's attacks and guard against Scorpion's chakra lines. You can't do two things at once, and you will be attacked five times out of ten. Naruto wasn't much better. He didn't dare to force Scorpion to stop, so he could only hold his head to protect his smart little head.

"Are you still fighting?"

"..."

"No fight, no fight Sakura-chan, please let me down!"

So, when the time hand pointed to ten o'clock and Kakashi arrived belatedly, what he saw were two boys covered in injuries. One was holding the railing on the bridge half-dead, and the other was standing upright, still expressionless but with shame written in his eyes.

The girl stood among them intact, with a teasing smile on her face.

Kakashi: "???"

Kakashi: "What happened?"

As soon as these words came out, the two of them stiffened and their eyes wandered. It can't be said that Yingbao beat them, it's too embarrassing. So the two of them identified each other as the one who hit them, and never mentioned the third person.

Kakashi didn't quite believe it, so he turned to a more reliable girl.

After receiving Naruto's pitiful gaze, the delighted Scorpion said, "That's right."

Boys at this age are indeed prone to fighting. Kakashi sighed: "The survival drill can only be postponed. Let's go to the hospital first."

On the way to the hospital, she met Class 10 who had just come out of the barbecue restaurant. When she saw Scorpion, Ino's eyes widened slightly. She ran over quickly and asked, "Sakura, what's wrong with your hair?"

How could Scorpio admit that he was overdoing his pretense? He did not hesitate to blame the blame on his classmate: "The two of them were fighting, and I was accidentally injured."

Only then did Ino notice the scarred Sasuke and Naruto, and she said dissatisfiedly: "Why are you trying to persuade them to fight? Can you hold them back?"

accidental injury? Kakashi narrowed his eyes. When the girl said this, Sasuke snorted in disgust, while Naruto looked confused. Coupled with the guilty expressions of the two boys when they were identified just now, it seems that there is another hidden reason behind this incident. Just ask the Sandaime later.

At this time, Sakura was studying Scorpion's pile of books.

Being bored this morning, Sakura came to Xie's laboratory. Just when she was about to turn on the light, she was frightened by the puppets in the room. She was timid and fainted. When she woke up and found that she was still in this room, she wanted to go out but found that the door was accidentally locked.

Sakura hugged her weak and helpless self tightly. She shakily turned on the light and found that they were not corpses, but a bunch of humanoid puppets, but they looked like humans in the dark night.

She breathed a sigh of relief, and her curiosity drove her to see the puppet up close, and by the way, she touched it. It felt no different from a real person.

Then she got poisoned.

"..."

Why would someone put poison on a puppet?

Sakura felt hot and cold in her body, and there were stabbing pains in her heart. The pain was so painful that she couldn't breathe. She wanted to go out and ask for help, but remembered that the door was locked and there were no windows in this small shabby house.

Sakura grabbed the clothes on her chest, trying to see if there was anything left in this room. It's impossible to sit still and wait for death. What if she dies before it's too late to change it back.

She groped towards the experimental table in the corner of the room. The table was filled with bottles and cans, as well as several work notes. Tears overflowing from the pain blurred her vision, making it difficult for her to see.

What is the source of this symptom?

The work notes record the structure of each puppet, and it is clearly written down where there is a mechanism and where poison is applied. The puppet she touched just now... why was there so much poison on it! Aren't you afraid of accidentally hurting yourself?

Sakura, who had no intention of complaining, read each word carefully and found the poison that matched the symptoms.

So the question is, how to solve it?
