Chapter 134 Reunion with Ye Cang, She Awaits Revenge

Chapter 134 Reunion with Ye Cang, She Awaits Revenge

"It's been a long time, Uchiha Kiyoshi."

Yecang, whose mere back view was enough to spark the imagination, turned around.

She deliberately raised her voice when she heard the name "Qing Si," and stared intently at Qing Si.

There were several Sunagakure ninjas beside her.

This is the only way to Sunagakure, so they came to meet us early.

"Yes, it's been a while since we last met."

Kiyoshi looked at Yecang.

Yekura was the oldest ninja in their group participating in the Chunin Exams, and was in the midst of rapid development.

And her clothing is becoming more and more like the original work.

The sleeveless, backless ninja outfit revealed her fair back and hands, which shone brightly in the sunlight.

A strip of cloth was wrapped around her waist, and the white cloth, instead of accentuating the rounded curve of her heart, further highlighted her figure.

It is clearly visible as it gently rises and falls with each breath.

"That's really good."

Kiyoshi's eyes flickered again.

Isn't this a mature leek ready to be harvested?

Moreover, the ninja world doesn't have plastic surgery technology yet, so everyone is completely natural.

The disguises of the "Transformation Technique" are all false illusions; once the chakra is exhausted, it will revert to its original form.

Even Orochimaru's B-rank ninjutsu, "Face Removal Technique," is merely a relatively sophisticated disguise. It involves attaching another person's facial skin to one's own face, thus achieving a level of disguise that is very effective without the need for chakra.

"It's really nice. Seeing you has fulfilled my wish."

A slight smile appeared on Ye Cang's lips.

It's perfectly normal for friendly exchanges to foster friendship among "Mokusa".

She had considered many ways to deal with Kiyoshi's physical strength.

"You're not bad, are you?"

Tsunade glanced at the two of them, then, as if remembering something, smiled and patted Kiyoshi on the back.

Even with Kiyoshi's current physique, he could still feel the pain.

If it were anyone else, they would probably be knocked to the ground immediately.

"You've misunderstood, Lady Tsunade."

"Oh, who hasn't been young once?"

Tsunade's light brown eyes narrowed with a smile, causing the flamboyant heart to sway.

Young people these days are really capable; even beautiful and talented women from other villages will keep their eyes on them.

Sarutobi Asuma and Yuhi Kurenai were both fighting Maki during the Chunin Exams, and it's unclear what exactly happened between Kiyoshi and Pakura.

All I know is that Kiyoshi chased Yokura away.

"Kiyoshi is actually exchanging glances with Yekura."

Sarutobi Asuma was secretly delighted.

Wouldn't that mean no one would compete with him for the top spot?

A temporary lead is not a true lead; the one who laughs last is the winner!

Unlike Sarutobi Asuma's almost laughing expression, Kurenai Yuhi's expression was much more distressed.

Kiyoshi was holding a shrine maiden before, but now he's got some complicated entanglements with Yokura.

Aren't they enemies?

"Yakura, is that the Konoha genius, the Uchiha?"

To Yekura's right was a handsome young man with red hair.

"There are so many people in Konoha. Even after the death of Konoha's White Fang, new geniuses keep emerging."

The scorpion, who appears harmless and has a delicate appearance, speaks without any mercy.

This immediately made Tsunade frown.

"scorpion!"

Ye Cang called out, telling Scorpion to tone it down.

Sasori's parents were killed by Sakumo Hatake, the White Fang of Konoha, so it's normal for him to hate Konoha ninjas.

But today, Konoha is on a diplomatic mission to Sunagakure, and a slight mishap could result in a serious diplomatic incident!

Scorpion didn't speak, but simply turned his head to gaze at the empty desert.

Yecang suddenly understood why Sasori, who usually acted very aloof, couldn't control his emotions today.

It's because the person he always wanted to hate is dead, leaving him with no one to avenge.

It's like a punch that's been building up its power, but it landed on a lump of cotton, leaving the person feeling powerless and extremely frustrated.

Yecang sighed and looked at Tsunade, who was at the head of the group.

"I'm sorry to have made you laugh. Please follow me; the village is still a bit further away."

Yekura turned around and led the group toward Sunagakure, leaving a trail of footprints in the desert.

Tsunade looked at Sasori's red hair and remembered that Sakumo Hatake had killed a couple famous for their puppetry skills.

Could this child be their offspring?

Tsunade told Kiyoshi and the other two to follow her as they walked through the vast desert.

Qing Si glanced at the scorpion in front of him a few times, and had already made up his mind.

White Fang is dead, and Sasori will definitely poison the Third Kazekage; it's only a matter of time.

Because Sasori would take his anger out on the Third Kazekage because of his parents' deaths.

He believed that the Kazekage, as the leader of Sunagakure, was negligent and incompetent, which led to Konoha's invasion and forced his parents to die.

This logic is very abstract, but that's how Scorpion thinks.

That's why Kiyoshi believed that the ninja world was full of extremists and mentally ill people.

Konoha does not have a department responsible for caring for children's mental health.

There is none in Sunagakure either.

No ninja village in the entire ninja world has established an institution like a "Children's Heart Therapy Room".

The first "Children's Psychological Therapy Room" will not be established until six months after the end of the Fourth Shinobi World War.

It was Sakura who took the lead in proposing it, and it took a lot of time and effort.

They had long been subtly distorted by the ninja system.

"Try to lure the scorpion sometime."

Kiyoshi secretly said.

The twisted scorpion became useful to him, and thus shone brightly.

After all, the scorpion in the original work didn't do anything particularly wicked.

…………

The group soon arrived at Sunagakure.

This is in the very center of the desert, and one of the few oases in the desert.

The Sand Village ninjas built their homeland by taking advantage of the harsh geographical conditions here.

Kiyoshi looked at these strange buildings.

Looking at it for too long can create a feeling of oppression.

This place is filled with earth-colored buildings, constructed in the shape of fortresses.

Even a little bit of color is a luxury.

Yekura noticed Kiyoshi's gaze and snorted.

She felt that Kiyoshi was definitely not looking at her with an appreciative eye.

That's the privilege of being born in a rich and prosperous place!

Kiyoshi turned his head and glanced at Yokura's proud expression.

Education is of paramount importance in every village.

Having lived here since childhood, Yecang naturally doesn't feel any sense of oppression; they've become accustomed to it.

The official novel, "Gaara's Secret Story," states that most of the ninjas of Sunagakure are not interested in a luxurious lifestyle.

In Kiyoshi's eyes, it was nothing more than finding joy in hardship. If one does not understand the spirit of contentment, one will sooner or later suffocate in this desert and become a meal for the vultures.

Those ninjas who wanted a good life probably lived in purgatory every day.

As the group walked through Sunagakure, curious Sunagakure residents would occasionally cast their gazes at them.

They had clearly spotted the Konoha insignia on the ninja headbands worn by Kiyoshi and the others.

"arrive."

Not long after, Yekura stopped in front of an impressive building.

The buildings where the Kage conducts their offices, conducts diplomatic missions, and assigns tasks are always more impressive than other buildings, regardless of which ninja village they are located in.

After the group went inside, the man who was working looked up.

"Welcome, Konoha ninjas, to Sunagakure."

The Third Kazekage had light blue hair, narrow eyes, and wore a blue ninja outfit that was a shade darker than his hair color.

"Third Kazekage, I'm here on behalf of Konoha to discuss the alliance with you."

Tsunade's nonchalant expression turned serious. She took out a sealing scroll and some paper covered with densely written words.

"certainly."

The Third Kazekage nodded, having anticipated Konoha's desire to strengthen the alliance.

The reason they didn't stop Tsunade and the others was because Konoha had already sent out a notification via remote electronic devices.

Afterwards, Tsunade and the Third Kazekage began to discuss the alliance, how to strengthen it, and whether to modify any unreasonable aspects from the past.

Kiyoshi glanced at the Third Kazekage a few times before looking away.

The Book of the Monarchs says he is "the strongest Kazekage of all time."

His immense power comes from his bloodline limit, "Magnetic Release".

It can convert highly refined chakra into magnetic force, and freely manipulate iron sand in the sand of nature.

Moreover, any weapon that can be interfered with by magnetism will have no effect on him.

The setting is quite powerful.

He was killed by the scorpion because he never expected that someone he trusted would poison him and play dirty tricks.

I waited for about two hours.

The Third Kazekage raised his head and looked at Sasori standing behind him, seemingly lost in thought.

"Go and take them downstairs to rest; it's getting late."

"Yes, Third Kazekage."

Scorpion said calmly.

His expression didn't reveal any emotional fluctuations.

The Third Kazekage had become accustomed to Sasori's attitude.

Sasori, Chiyo's most beloved grandson, is a genius in every way except for his somewhat aloof personality.

She was able to learn Chiyo's puppetry and "poison" techniques at a young age.

As expected, the powerful ninja strength of Sunagakure will undoubtedly become the pillar supporting the village in the future.

Scorpion walked ahead, leading Qing Si and the others down.

After everyone left, Yekura stayed behind to report to the Kazekage on whether there were any suspicious Konoha ninjas along the way.

…………

"Scorpion, could you show me around Sunagakure?"

After Scorpion led the group to the location, Kiyoshi suddenly spoke.

Scorpion gave Kiyoshi a strange look and nodded.

It's nothing.

With him by my side, nothing will happen.

"Kiyoshi, I want to go too."

Kurenai Yuhi spoke up.

But her little face betrayed her fatigue.

I've been traveling for the past few days. In the desert, the daytime temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, while the nighttime temperature drops below freezing.

It's fair to say they're not getting enough rest.

"Rest now, Hong. I'm going outside to check things out. I'll be right back."

Kiyoshi smiled slightly.

"……All right."

Kurenai Yuhi could only nod.

Sarutobi Asuma exhaled and said:

"Let's go rest first."

Sarutobi Asuma entered one of the rooms.

Each person has their own small room, and Tsunade, being part of the diplomatic mission, is given this small privilege.

Go early and come back early.

Tsunade said.

"Yes, Lady Tsunade."

Kiyoshi nodded and followed Scorpion away.

Along the way, Kiyoshi frequently asked Sasori about Sunagakure.

Scorpion answered Kiyoshi without expression.

Until Kiyoshi deliberately walked towards areas with large crowds.

The more crowded the place, the better it can conceal what Kiyoshi wants to do.

The two were sandwiched between the bustling street.

It's a nice day, and there are many pedestrians on the street.

"I heard your parents died at the hands of Sakumo Hatake?"

Qing Si suddenly asked.
