It truly takes his younger brother’s words to be effective.
After hearing this, Chiyo observed him carefully and indeed, it was not the White Fang of Konoha.
“Besides, the White Fang of Konoha died many years ago.
When he died, didn’t you weep bitterly because you couldn’t avenge your son with your own hands?
Right, Sister?” Ebizo said.
“What are you talking about!
I was just playing senile!
Hahahaha…” Chiyo suddenly remembered that Konoha was here to provide support and that she couldn’t come into conflict with them, so she laughed it off.
Everyone had an awkward look on their faces.
“Ah!
Urgh!” In the end, it was Kankuro’s painful howl that broke the awkward silence.
“Let me treat him!” Sakura immediately stepped forward, tied back her hair with her headband, and became serious instantly.
“Kakashi-sensei, please wait outside for now,” Sakura said to everyone.
The reason they had to wait for Kankuro was to confirm the direction in which Gaara had been taken.
All traces had been erased, and they were unable to track him.
Upon hearing this, everyone filed out, leaving only the medical Ninja and Temari behind.
After a simple diagnosis, Sakura identified the poison in Kankuro, stunning everyone from Sunagakure.
She then began the treatment, instructed the other medical Ninjas to prepare the necessary items, and began extracting the poison from Kankuro’s body.
Basin after basin of clear water was turned into basin after basin of poison by Sakura.
It took a long time to extract all the poison.
With that, Kankuro was no longer in life-threatening danger, and Sakura was exhausted.
Although she said it was all of it, it was impossible to truly clear it all.
There would still be some residue in his body, and she would have to clear all of that out eventually.
This was a complete showcase of the results of Sakura’s two and a half years of training in Medical Ninjutsu.
Facts proved that Sakura was truly well-suited to become a medical Ninja, arranging all the follow-up diagnostic work in an orderly manner.
Last night, Tsunade had already arranged for a hawk from the Hidden Sand Village to deliver a letter.
Now, Kakashi and the others had received the letter.
The content of which was naturally that Team Guy had been sent to provide support.
“Shin, I’m hungry.
Are you done dealing with that yet?” Inside Tsunade’s office, Tsunade was sitting leisurely in her chair, while Shin was processing documents.
All the documents that had piled up over these days were stacked in front of Shin.
As long as he finished processing these, there wouldn’t be any more documents piling up.
“Alright, I’ll go make you something to eat first.” Shin nodded and put down the pen in his hand.
The two of them no longer used honorifics when speaking to each other, and Tsunade even had a hint of coquettishness.
“Okay.” Tsunade also nodded, watching Shin leave.
The reason Tsunade called for Shin was because she wanted to eat the food Shin cooked himself.
The food he made was simply better than any restaurant in Konoha.
To save trouble, Shin had long ago arranged for a Shadow Clone to cook at home, so he just had to go home and get it.
Going back and forth, Shin dawdled, taking about thirty minutes.
After all, he had to set aside time for cooking so as not to arouse Tsunade’s suspicion.
After returning, Shin handed the food to Tsunade, while he picked up his own food and continued processing documents.
Tsunade looked at Shin, who was diligently processing documents, and then looked at the food in her own hand.
Had she perhaps been a bit too bossy?
“Thank you for your hard work.” Tsunade said to Shin afterwards.
“Oh?” Shin paused for a moment and looked up at Tsunade.
“It’s nothing.
It’s not hard work at all,” Shin said with a smile.
Tsunade nodded and turned away to eat.
Although Shin couldn’t see Tsunade’s blushing face, her favorability towards him had already reached seventy percent.
Over on Naruto’s side, after Kankuro woke up, he asked for his puppets.
Among his puppets, there was a fragment of clothing obtained after a fierce battle with Sasori of the Red Sand.
As long as they had this fragment, they could track the location of Sasori and the others.
“Summoning Technique!” Kakashi immediately formed hand seals to summon his dogs.
“Find out where this person is.
Go!” Kakashi placed the fragment of Sasori’s clothing among the eight Ninja hounds, let them sniff it, and after confirming the scent, the eight Ninja hounds immediately scattered.
Meanwhile, the Akatsuki Organization was currently extracting the Tailed Beast from within Gaara.
If it weren’t for the fact that the Phantom Dragons Nine Consuming Seals required three days, they would have flown far away long ago.
How could they have waited for Konoha’s support?
One of the Shadow Clones located in the Hidden Sand Village had long since rested and had been peeking from the roof where Kakashi and the others were staying.
With his ability to hide his presence, it was impossible for them to discover him.
Pakkun’s trip took an entire night, and he didn’t return until the next morning.
Kakashi and Naruto were provided with comfortable beds to sleep in, while Shin had to use the sky as his blanket and the ground as his bed again.
It was simply painful.
“Hurry up and let me learn these damn Ninjutsu so I can go back.
This is truly too painful.”
After Pakkun informed Kakashi of the Akatsuki Organization’s location, he was sent to find Might Guy and the others to rendezvous, leading them directly to the Akatsuki Organization’s location.
Speaking of Might Guy’s team, they were all Ninjas proficient in Taijutsu.
In terms of speed, they were indeed much faster than Kakashi and his team.
Meanwhile, Shin was suffering from hunger.
After Kakashi and the others packed their gear, they rendezvoused with the people from Sunagakure to prepare to rescue Gaara.
However, halfway there, Temari was stopped by Baki, who told her to stay behind to defend the national border.
Although Temari refused, it was an order from above, and she had no choice.
In the end, Temari and her subordinates were left behind, and Chiyo joined them instead.
This result was acceptable.
After all, Chiyo’s strength was still very formidable.
Team Guy had just prepared to take a rest when they encountered Pakkun.
“Wait, Guy.”
“Eh?
Pakkun?” Might Guy was slightly stunned when he saw Pakkun.
“Ordered by Kakashi, our eight Ninja hounds dispersed to track the scent of the Akatsuki Organization.
We discovered that they have already gone to the Land of Rivers, which is between Konoha and Sunagakure.
This means that the closest people to the Akatsuki Organization right now are you, who are rushing from Konoha to Sunagakure,” Pakkun said to the group.
“I see…” Rock Lee nodded, while Tenten was a bit nervous.
After all, she had heard those Guys were very powerful.
“Please follow me.
We can talk about the details while we walk,” Pakkun continued, saying to the group.
“Hmm?” Just as Pakkun was about to lead the way, he suddenly twitched his nose.
“Why is there the scent of another person here!”
“Crap!” Shin, who was hiding not far away, quickly dove underground to escape.
He couldn’t withstand a kick from Might Guy.
“What?
Where?” Might Guy and the others became alert after hearing this.
“They’ve gone…” After sniffing carefully, Pakkun said.
“It’s possible they are from the Akatsuki Organization.
Let’s speed up and head over!” Pakkun said.
“Alright!” Might Guy nodded and led Rock Lee and the others to follow.
“Discovered?” At this moment, a person emerged from a tree beside them.
This person was none other than Zetsu of the Akatsuki Organization.
Zetsu immediately used the Magic Lantern Body Technique to notify everyone in the Akatsuki Organization.
“The enemy is heading toward our gathering place.”
The so-called Magic Lantern Body Technique involves members of the Akatsuki Organization sitting down and emitting ‘thought waves’ converted from Chakra.
Pain, acting as the command tower, receives these waves, amplifies them, and then projects the illusion onto a specific location.
This illusion is different from an ordinary projection.
If relayed through Pain, it can unleash various techniques.
“Enemies?” Deidara asked.
“And they are high-level experts.
The name is Might Guy,” Zetsu said.
If Shin were nearby, he would definitely praise him.
“Young man, you’ve got a good eye.”
“Then, who is he?” Deva Path Pain asked.
Having stayed in the Land of Rain for many years, he wasn’t very clear about these things.
“A Jonin from Konoha, skilled in Taijutsu, and quite strong.
You had best not underestimate him,” Uchiha Itachi said at this moment.
“So it’s that Rare Beast,” Kisame Hoshigaki said after hearing this.
Back when he and Itachi went to Konoha, Kakashi had been caught in Itachi’s Tsukuyomi.
If Might Guy hadn’t arrived to save the day, Kakashi might have died at the hands of Kisame Hoshigaki, which had left a strong impression on Kisame Hoshigaki.
“Use that technique,” Pain said.
“Then let me go.
I haven’t been able to find the Jinchuriki, and I’m already furious,” Hidan said.
“No, let me go.
I have a bit of a personal grudge with him,” Kisame Hoshigaki said.
“True, even within the Akatsuki Organization, you are the most suitable person to go, given your abundant Chakra,” Kakuzu said.
“Indeed, I can finally avenge that kick from that day,” Kisame Hoshigaki said with a laugh.
Subsequently, Kisame Hoshigaki and Uchiha Itachi, who were near the Land of Rivers, used the Shapeshifting Technique together.
The so-called Shapeshifting Technique is a Ninjutsu where Pain distributes the Chakra of an Akatsuki Organization member onto a living sacrifice to create a sophisticated ‘replica’ for combat.
The strength of the replica is determined by the amount of Chakra allocated, and it can use the abilities of the original body!
However, if the Chakra is exhausted, the Ninjutsu will automatically be dispelled, and the sacrifice will die immediately.
It is a cruel Ninjutsu that even drains the sacrifice’s own Chakra.
Because he was discovered by Pakkun, Shin had no choice but to rush ahead to the Land of Rivers, which he had heard them mention.
His speed was much faster than Might Guy and the others.
After arriving in the Land of Rivers, Shin found the cave where the Akatsuki Organization was located, looked around, found a suitable tree, and climbed to the very top.
“Eh!?”
“Eh!?”
As soon as Shin climbed the tree, he let out two exclamations.
Shin looked over, and wasn’t the other person the Shadow Clone he had sent out earlier?
“What a coincidence…
You’re hiding here to learn Ninjutsu too,” the Shin who arrived first said to the Shin who arrived later.
“Ah…
As expected of me, we chose the same spot,” the later Shin nodded and said.
“Then are you the original body?” the first Shin asked.
“No, I’m also a clone.
I came with Might Guy and the others.”
“I see…” Shin nodded, and the two suddenly looked at each other, falling into an awkward silence…
“Um…
do you have anything to eat?” the later Shin asked the first Shin weakly.
“What a coincidence, I just stole two flatbreads in the Hidden Sand Village!” The first Shin pulled two flatbreads from his robes.
“Great!” The later Shin grabbed the flatbread and started devouring it ravenously.
