The night was bleak, the wind was biting, and the billowing sand and dust were blown by the breeze, tumbling into the air, and then falling back to the earth, rising and falling seemingly endlessly.
In the vast expanse of desert, near a sparsely populated sand dune, several figures vaguely emerged, talking softly to each other.
"Luo Sha agrees?"
"Um."
"So you can..."
"So unscrupulous?"
"We are also doing this for the good of the village."
After several consecutive exchanges, the atmosphere fell silent. Chiyo, who was in his fifties, barely suppressed his trembling shoulders and slowly exhaled.
Looking at the serious-faced red-haired boy and...
With a calm look on her face, there was a faint hint of the madness of the young mother. Chiyo was suddenly at a loss for words. She didn't know how to persuade these two people to give up.
Human puppet technology actually has the support of the village?
Got the support of Luo Sha, the Fourth Kazekage?
Arabian Nights.
Is she crazy?
Or...is the world crazy?!!
"Grandma, don't worry, I will carefully transform Master Feng Xiang's body so that his abilities can be fully utilized and he can contribute enough to the village."
"Master Feng Xiang is such a powerful person, he should not die on the bed of old, so I have the responsibility and obligation... to help him return to the top and enjoy eternal beauty."
The red-haired boy, the Red Sand Scorpion, said this with an extremely focused expression. When he mentioned the word eternity, a hint of intoxication flashed across his delicate face, as if there was infinite beauty contained in it.
"Scorpion, it's been almost three years since Senior Feng Yan died. Are you sure that the corruption problem will not affect the creation of human puppets?"
When Spider looked at his son, a touch of tender endearment flashed in his eyes. Then, when his eyes swept to the tombstone not far away, a slightly complicated expression appeared on his face.
Ashamed? Or sentimental?
Wind erosion...
This code name, which has a very special meaning in the hearts of all Sunagakure Village ninjas, should have turned into a spiritual totem over time and been buried forever in the dust of Sunagakure's history...
The old man who dedicated his life to the village should not be disturbed by the world after death.
But the unscrupulous younger generation finally succumbed to the pressure of reality, and so did Feng Ying, and so did Spider.
In order to cope with the upcoming war, Sunagakure Village, which has not yet recovered its strength, will inevitably go down the road of quick success and quick gain.
The human puppet concept proposed by Scorpion received the full support of Spider as soon as it appeared. Is there anything wrong with a mother supporting her son?
What's more, is it to gain the power of revenge?
In the same way, in front of Konoha, in front of the Fire Nation that is gradually moving closer to the all-encompassing army, in front of the more than 100,000 Fire Nation regular army ninjas headed by that monster Lei Luo...
Sunagakure Village, which cannot afford to lose anymore and cannot surrender, if it still wants to survive in the subsequent world war, or in other words, the catastrophe that swept the entire ninja world, the Fourth Kazekage Rasa...
Is there any choice left?
"Mother, it has only been a few years. I think given the dry climate in the desert, Lord Feng Xiu's body should not have been completely weathered. Please believe in my ability."
Spider's expression was very determined, and a confident smile appeared on the young man's face. The proud mentality of Sunagakure's genius puppet master finally showed up at this moment, making Spider couldn't help but like it more and more.
Simply, just like his father back then.
Watching the interaction between mother and son, Chiyo was slightly lost in thought. She pursed her lips slightly and wanted to try to persuade her, but in the end, she just sighed and said with a tired face:
"Scorpion, remember..."
"This is the first and last time."
"Okay, grandma."
With almost no hesitation, Xie nodded obediently to Chiyo, his attitude seemed extremely sensible, but his heart was filled with disapproval.
the last time?
Judging from the current situation, is it possible?
Human puppet technology, perfect eternal art... Once Pandora's box is opened, it will be difficult to close it again. This is true for both Scorpion and Sunagakure Village.
I have to say that Scorpio was born in a good era.
An era where he can fully display his talents.
…
"Dad, I still can't figure out why you must establish an alliance with Konoha, even now..."
"Still unwilling to completely break up with that village?"
Ai, who has grown into an outstanding Jonin, and is now in his early twenties, the son of the Raikage, looks at his father behind the desk in confusion, his tone...
With a strong sense of dissatisfaction.
Ye Yuueai, who crossed her arms and closed her eyes in thought, opened her eyes and glanced at her son. Instead of answering the question, she turned her head and looked at the young man in sunglasses sitting on the sofa on the other side.
"Bi, you can't understand it either?"
As the partner of the next generation Raikage, Rabbi Riki, the Eight-Tailed Jinchuuriki who is not yet twenty years old this year, after a brief thought, replied in an uncertain tone:
"Lord Raikage, do you think that Konoha can still win the final victory in this battle?"
After finishing his words, seeing Yeyue Ai being noncommittal, Qilabi couldn't help but frown, racking his brains and thinking for a while, but before he expressed his next point of view, Ai interrupted:
"Dad, there are four major countries now, and all the small countries are besieging Konoha together!"
"Honestly, I really can't imagine how Konoha can survive under this level of pressure, let alone win!"
Blushing and thick-necked, Ai elaborated on his views and unconsciously turned up the volume loudly, interrupting Kirabi's train of thought and attracting the glare of the Third Raikage.
The father glared at his son and replied directly:
"I want to correct two mistakes in your words. First of all, it is not all the countries in the ninja world that are besieging Konoha, but only the four major countries, Amakusa Takiyu and other small countries that are strong enough."
"Countries like Ghost Moon Snow Bird are not qualified to participate in this war. Secondly..."
"It is not Konoha that is under siege, but the Country of Fire. Do you know the difference between this? Have you ever understood the reform of the Country of Fire?"
After being scolded by his father, Ai felt a little dissatisfied, but he still replied with a smile on his face: "I really don't know much about it, but..."
"Nothing but."
Brutally interrupting her son's attempt to refute, Yeyue Ai closed her eyes again, making it clear that she no longer wanted to pay attention to the simple-minded Ai.
Why try to maintain friendly relations with Konoha?
This question can be said to be simple or complex.
Ye Yue Ai, the wise and wise leader of Yunyin Village, seems to see possible changes in the world situation in the future whenever he thinks alone.
With the current strength of the Fire Nation, even if we do not look at the high-end combat power, the number of low-level ninjas has almost reached the sum of all the ninjas in the four major ninja villages.
This terrifying mobilization ability truly touched Ye Yuueai's heart:
How can an advanced system be so powerful?
A small, extremely expensive reagent that can only help ordinary people extract chakra can create so many ninjas out of thin air?
The system of the Kingdom of Fire is really rich in knowledge.
So in the Kingdom of Thunder, is it possible to learn?
To maintain a good relationship with Konoha, is it...
Can Kumogakure have a pivotal position in the ninja world in a few years or more than ten years?
Ye Yuueai does not think that the Fire Country will lose, nor does he think that the backward feudal system can compete with the advanced capital system. Therefore, the structure of the five major countries will most likely change after this war.
