In the Land of Wind, under the endless Sand Sea.
A young man with red hair was fiddling with a puppet in front of him.
"Sure enough, it's still not working … Really, I wanted to keep that guy as a precious collection, but with my current strength, if I really meet him, I'll most likely become his collection."
Thinking of the man named Shimizu Garashi, even Sasori, who didn't have many human emotions, felt a slight wave in his heart.
"If I want to have the power to protect myself in front of that man, unless I get the body of Hashirama or Uchiha Madara, otherwise, even if I use those Kage's bodies as materials, it will be useless in front of him."
"Since it's difficult to improve the quality of the puppets, maybe I should work on the quantity. Of course, the quality of these puppets can't be too bad, at least they should be able to withstand that guy's normal attacks … "
Just as he was lost in his thoughts, his subordinates walked in.
"Sasori -sama, we just received a piece of information, I think it may be useful to you."
Sasori said while fixing the puppet. "Tell me, what information?"
"Just a few days ago, some of the puppets of Sand Crypsis defected, and when they fled to the border between the Land of Wind and the Land of River, they were caught by the Sand Crypsis."
A puppet troop defected … Perhaps thinking of his own experience, Sasori stopped what he was doing and listened carefully.
"That defected ninja was going to lose, but maybe his luck was better, their battle triggered an ancient mechanism, and several of them fell into it."
"When they found the traitorous ninja again, the traitorous ninja found a strange ore from who knows where. After the ore was embedded in the puppet, the strength of the puppet suddenly increased several times, and the puppet master was able to escape."
"That defected ninja knew the value of the ore, so the first thing he did after escaping was to spread the news, most likely to cause trouble for the Sand Crypsis, so that they won't be able to spare extra energy to deal with him."
After that, his subordinate added, "According to the information from our spies in the Sand Crypsis, there is indeed a change in the Sand Crypsis, and the reliability of the information should not be low."
"Strange ore? Just by embedding it on the puppet, it can increase the puppet's strength … "The corner of Scorpion's mouth rose slightly." Heh, interesting! "
His subordinate asked eagerly, "Sir Scorpion, should we send some people to fight for the ores?"
"If the Sand Crypsis is really going to take action, you won't be able to compete with them," Scorpion said calmly. "Let me do it myself!"
His subordinate's eyes were filled with worship. "Since you're personally taking action, there naturally won't be any problems!"
"That's hard to say!" Scorpion shook his head slightly. "Don't you think it's too much of a coincidence that it's a treasure that's useful to the Puppet Masters and that it appeared at the border between the Country of River and the Country of Wind?"
His subordinate was shocked. "You mean, this is a trap set by the Sand Crypsis?"
"It's just a possibility." Scorpion's voice was calm. "After all, I'm the biggest stain in the eyes of Sand Crypsis!"
Although he had some doubts, he wasn't worried. With his current strength, as long as he didn't encounter a monster like Shimizu Garashi, even if a team of Jonins came, they wouldn't be able to do anything to him!
His subordinate was hesitant. "Speaking of which, I did hear another news."
Scorpion frowned slightly. "What other news?"
"I heard that Shimizu Garashi seems to be in the Sand Crypsis now!"
"Shimizu Garashi!" Scorpion's eyes jumped wildly. What he was afraid of really happened. "How could he be in the Sand Crypsis?"
"It's said that the Yondaime Kazekage asked him to use Mokuton to change the environment of the Country of Wind." His subordinate suggested. "Why don't you wait for Shimizu Garashi to leave the Sand Crypsis before snatching the ore?"
Scorpion was silent for a long time before he asked. "Does the ore really have that effect?"
His subordinate replied, "In order to make what he said more credible, that rebellious ninja publicly showed the power of the ore. From this point of view, it should be true!"
"I don't know how long it will take for him to leave. If the ore enters the Sand Crypsis, even I will have a hard time snatching things from the hinterland of a big ninja village."
Scorpion muttered to himself for a while and ordered, "You exaggerate the role of the ore and let more people enter the ruins!"
His subordinate quickly responded. "Yes!"
…
Sand Crypsis Village, at the banquet.
A group of Sand Crypsis ninjas were enthusiastically flattering.
"Garashi -sama is so powerful that even the existence of Kyuubi can be easily suppressed!"
"And Kazekage-sama, his deep wisdom like the starry sky really makes us ashamed!"
Rasa was indeed very proud. At that time, he agreed to Garashi using the undeveloped Mokuton as one of the conditions for participation in the war. Many people said that he was brainless behind his back, saying that he was cowardly and compromised. He even agreed to such an obvious condition.
But now? Being brainless has become far-sighted, and cowardly compromise has become decisive and wise!
And for Garashi, as the "loser", no one dared to despise him.
People with discerning eyes know that the person who can really decide the fate of Wood Leaf is not the Naruto sitting in the Naruto building, but the boss in front of them!
If he gets tired of playing the game by the rules, he can easily replace Naruto, and even subvert the rules of the ninja world is not impossible!
If the boss in front of them doesn't want to play anymore and overturns the table to make new rules, what can they do?
Just close the door and release the Kyuubi, no one can resist!
Therefore, they naturally have to flatter each other, make the boss happy, and don't have any bold ideas.
You are good, I am good, everyone is good, this is a harmonious world!
"Garashi, it's not that I want to criticize you." Rasa put his arm around Garashi's shoulder and said, "You went back for so long and didn't come to our Sand Crypsis, the little guys in the school miss you very much!"
Garashi smiled, "It's rare that they still remember me!"
"By the way, Wood Leaf, do you want us to protest?" Rasa looked unsatisfied, "You are the honorary consultant of our Sand Crypsis, if you are treated unfairly, we Sand Crypsis will not agree!"
The surrounding Sand Crypsis Jonin looked at him strangely, wasn't this the proposal of the spy? Last time, you said that someone's ass was crooked, why are you using it yourself?
Garashi shook his head slightly, "No, this is also a rare opportunity for me to cleanse my soul and truly see myself clearly!"
Rasa of course knew that Garashi would not agree, but on the surface, he still looked regretful, "Garashi, you are too kind, if it was me … Forget it, if you don't have a good time in Wood Leaf, the door of Sand Crypsis will always be open for you!"
A group of Sand Crypsis Ninjas' eyes lit up, as expected of the Kazekage-sama, he easily said what they didn't dare to say.
Garashi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "There is no need to consider this!"
