Konoha's Sea of ​​Fire

After Kakashi and his party entered the Kingdom of Wind, the extremely harsh environment made it impossible for the ultimate clone to follow them closely.

Moreover, after entering the Kingdom of Wind, Kakashi directly channeled the Eight Ninja Dogs and used the dog's nose to sniff around.

Without plants to cover up its own scent, the smell of the Jue Clone could not be hidden from the Eight Ninja Dogs. Therefore, the Jue Clone had to choose to evacuate.

No one is following

Kakashi responded to the information from the Eight Ninja Dogs with a calm expression.

Three guesses instantly appeared in his mind. First, the Akatsuki organization did not discover them. Second, Danzo had colluded with the Akatsuki organization. Their intelligence would be leaked through Sai. Third, everything was Kakashi's imagination. , maybe, nothing will happen on this mission.

Thinking like this, Kakashi saw Sai taking out the drawing board again and starting to draw.

bother

Kakashi said: "Sai, you really like drawing."

Sai said with a hypocritical smile: "Ah, I have liked drawing since I was a child. When I see beautiful scenery and strange things, I want to draw them."

"That's right." Kakashi narrowed his eyes.

Naruto came up to him at this time and suggested to go to Sunagakure Village first, first to see if Jiraiya was still there, and secondly, to leave Sai in Sunagakure Village.

Kakashi touched his chin and thought about it. He was very moved, but still refused.

After all, Sai is not stupid, and Sai is also good at super beast fake painting. Even if he leaves him behind, he can catch up as quickly as possible.

Naruto was a little discouraged.

A group of four people trekked in the Gobi desert. Due to water supply problems, the speed was sometimes fast and sometimes slow. It was not until more than half a month passed that they approached the Loulan ruins according to the map provided in the mission information.

The ruins of Loulan are surrounded by endless desert, with ruins and ruins everywhere. A large number of buildings have even been buried by the wind and sand, and their specific shapes cannot be seen.

"Kakashi-sensei, is this the ruins of Loulan?" Sakura looked around, feeling a bit eerie inexplicably.

With a smile, Sai took out the drawing board and started painting again.

"Kakashi-sensei, the traitorous ninja named Baizu is hiding here, is that right?" Naruto asked.

"Ah." Kakashi smiled and channeled the Eight Ninja Dogs and said, "This ruins is much larger than I thought. It may take some time to find Baizu."

"I'm here to help too" Naruto formed the seal, "Shadow Clone Technique"

Hundreds of shadow clones were instantly separated, and they scattered in search of Baizu's whereabouts.

"Then, let me help too."

Sai said with a smile, "Ninjutsu Super Beast Fake Painting"

砰

In the smoke, black and white birds flew out of his drawing paper, hovered in the air, and flew away in all directions in an instant.

"This is"

This was the first time for Naruto and Sakura to see such a ninjutsu, they actually used drawing to perform ninjutsu.

"Sai, I hope you know what you are doing." Kakashi looked at Sai's fake smile and said seriously.

"Of course, as a ninja of Konoha, I will never forget my mission." Sai walked to Naruto with a smile and said, "So from now on, I will always follow Naruto to ensure that he Safety."

"What are you saying? I don't want your protection. You stay away from me, do you hear me?" Naruto jumped in anger and pushed Sai away from him with a look of disgust.

"What, are you shy?" Sai tilted his head and smiled.

Naruto gritted his teeth: "You are so shy, I just hate you and don't want to be so close to you."

"That's not okay, this is my mission." The fake smile on Zuo's face faded slightly and he said, "

Even if it costs my life, I will keep you safe, Naruto."

Naruto was stunned by his affectionate confession, and then became angry: "Asshole"

"found it"

Kakashi suddenly spoke, and then quickly moved toward the southeast, "Naruto, Sakura, and Sai, follow up."

"understood"

Naruto responded, then seemed to run away from Sayi.

at the same time.

A hundred miles away from the Loulan ruins, Tiandao Pain, Jue, Beiliuhu and Orochimaru had already gathered.

"Where are Xie and Xin." Tiandao Payne looked at Jue.

"It will probably take half a day to arrive." Jue said.

His clone merged with the shadows of Scorpion and Uchiha Nobu, so he could tell the time accurately.

"I'm a little curious." Orochimaru suddenly smiled, "What about Konan? Didn't she come?"

Tiandao Payne said: "She has a more important mission."

"That's it." Orochimaru smiled and looked away, but his golden vertical pupils flickered.

After his soul fell into the hands of Payne of Heaven, Orochimaru had already had close contact with Payne of Hell. He already knew that Payne was six people.

And these six people are very strange.

They have weird abilities and powerful strength, but all of them have expressionless faces. One or two are okay, but all six are like this, which makes Orochimaru suspicious.

And Tendo Payne suddenly changed from Yahiko to the tall and thin appearance in front of him, which made Orochimaru even more suspicious.

He suspected that Payne's Six Paths were just six puppets of someone.

Yahiko's puppet was broken, so he replaced it with another one.

If my guess is correct, then the person who controls the puppet

Orochimaru suspected it was Konan.

But Konan often appears with Tendo Payne, so it seems like it's not her.

Then, Orochimaru thought of another person.

It seems to be called Nagato.

Among the three disciples that Jiraiya took in from the Land of Rain, only the red-haired Nagato never showed up.

Could it be that Konan's so-called more important mission is to stay with Nagato?

If so, they must be nearby

Orochimaru retracted his hands in his wide sleeves and swayed slightly backwards. Several small white snakes immediately got into the yellow sand and left quickly and quietly.

Jue glanced at him, but didn't say anything.

"Uchiha Fenghuo and the others, have they arrived?" Tiandao Payne asked again.

"I entered the Kingdom of Wind a few days ago. At this time, I might be near the Loulan ruins." Jue said.

Although his clone did not dare to approach Feng Huo and his group, it was still okay to take a few glances from a distance.

"The Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki has also entered the Loulan ruins."

Orochimaru suddenly spoke.

In the distance, a black and white bird that looked like a landscape painting was seen flapping its wings and flying towards this side, circling steadily above Orochimaru's head.

Orochimaru took out a piece of paper and opened it. The bird bumped into it, and a line of clear handwriting appeared.

Arrive at the Loulan ruins

"Now that we're here, I'll go catch them." Bei Liuhu took a step forward, his tone a little urgent.

After all, that guy Kakashi has also arrived. He has been coveting the Sharingan for a long time.

"Don't worry, wait until Xie and Xin arrive before taking action." Tiandao Payne said.
