Looking at the grandmother in front of him who looked familiar yet strange, Sasori felt that after he left Sunagakure for more than ten years, his grandmother had seen and thought a lot of things clearly. The original iron-blooded and surly Chiyo had really become the most ordinary granny next door at this moment.
"Human life …"
For some reason, looking at Chiyo who was trying her best to save Sakura, Sasori's mouth began to mutter to himself.
"How small are humans, the erosion of time and the passage of time will take away human life. We may sigh and lament that mayflies only have a single day, but don't humans also only have a single day that they think is long? So, I tried my best to find a way to let us live forever … I succeeded, as long as my core is not destroyed, I can continue to make puppets to continue my life. What's wrong with this approach? "
Sasori's words seemed to be asking his grandmother, but also seemed to be asking himself. People often say, 'When a person is about to die, his words are kind. When a bird is about to die, its cry is sad. ' Perhaps at this moment, Sasori fell into such a state? The original paranoid and stubborn thoughts have slowly dissipated at this moment, leaving only a rational thought to look at his life.
"In fact, our life is destined to be a tragedy." Looking at her grandson who seemed to be a little confused, Chiyo transmitted her vitality to Sakura to restore Sakura, and said to her grandson with a little doting tone, "We live in an era that is destined to face more joys and sorrows, in this era, we are as small as the 'mayflies' in your words."
"We rise and fall with the waves of the times, and these waves are the blood of every ninja, and the tears in the eyes of every civilian. It turned out that I didn't understand, or I didn't put my eyes on these things. But since you left Sunagakure, I also took the initiative to remove my authority, and lived in seclusion outside Sunagakure with my younger brother, your second grandpa, Ebizo. "
"It was also this kind of life that gave me the opportunity to carefully consider my life. The life of fishing, playing chess, and even pretending to be dead every day was actually more satisfying than the life that I had lived for decades before. It was this kind of life that made me understand that everyone is equal, and everyone's life is worth respecting. "
As she spoke, Chiyo raised her head and looked at the scattered puppets belonging to Scorpion. These puppets were all human puppets, made from human bodies.
"Back then, when I discovered that you were creating human puppets, I wasn't that against it. This was because human puppets did have their own advantages, which ordinary puppets couldn't compare to. But as the Chief Advisor of Sunagakure, I can't tolerate and hide such things. That's why I lost my temper at you at that time, thinking that you don't have a long-term vision. "
"But, Scorpion … my grandson. You are also someone who has suffered the torture of the death of your family. Don't these human puppets have their own families? Perhaps they have their own children. Putting yourself in the shoes of others, do you really think that you have no regrets for what you have done? "
Facing his grandmother's gaze, Scorpion couldn't help but be silent. The death of his parents was the eternal regret of his life, and it was the most primitive motivation for all of Scorpion's actions. But when Scorpion took the lives of others at will for his own actions, did Scorpion also indirectly create more of himself?
Scorpion never thought about this problem before, because Scorpion had been completely covered by the curtain of his inner darkness, and he couldn't see anything else. But now, when he could seriously listen to his grandmother's words and began to reflect on himself, Scorpion suddenly found that he didn't know how to justify his behavior.
Was he really wrong?
Chiyo Popo and Sasori once again fell into silence. After a while, Chiyo Popo retracted the cyan chakra covering her hand. Xiao Ying, whose eyes were originally tightly shut, slowly opened her eyes at this moment. The first thing she saw was Scorpion's extremely expressionless face.
Without any explanation, Scorpion jumped up from the ground. Sakura directly punched Scorpion's face. A large amount of Chakra consumption made Sakura's fist no longer attached with monstrous strength, but her strong physical fitness still broke a large piece of the puppet's face, which was possessed by Scorpion at this moment.
"You bastard, what do you think of your grandmother and other people's lives?!"
After throwing such a punch, Sakura looked at Scorpion and said angrily. In Sakura's own cognition, Scorpion was simply a heinous devil. For his own selfish desires, many people lost their lives, and even caused his grandmother to be poisoned.
"Human lives …"
Chiyo was very weak at the moment. She wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, she closed her mouth, as if she wanted to save her strength to do something.
Looking at the core of his chest, which was still bleeding, Scorpion said with a little self-mockery.
"Right now, even I don't understand myself. Perhaps I'm just a failed product that tried my best to turn myself into a puppet but still retained some human characteristics … Let me give you, the child that my grandmother likes very much, a final gift …"
Looking at Sakura, Scorpion said slowly.
"I know that you are very concerned about Orochimaru, and to a certain extent, I am also a person who stands on the opposite side of Orochimaru. So, remember to go to Kusanagi Village after ten days. I left a spy in Orochimaru's place, and he has already made an appointment to meet me there. "
Hearing Scorpion's words, Sakura's expression changed obviously, and the anxious emotion instantly rushed to Sakura's heart. Sakura, who just wanted to ask about the spy, saw that Scorpion's eyes had slowly lost focus and became dull at this moment.
But Sakura quickly adjusted her mentality. After all, there is still a poisoned Chiyo around her. The most urgent thing at the moment is to save Chiyo's life, isn't it?
"Grandma, I will take you back to the village with the fastest speed. I will do my best to make an antidote to save your life."
