Naruto: Who made him a ninja

Chapter 20 Scorpion? Scorpion!

"Where exactly is it?"

In the Land of Wind, amidst the howling sandstorms, Scorpion slowly walked towards the depths of the desert.

He had been searching for a few days after he noticed a major battle.

His purpose in returning to the Land of Wind was simple: to find suitable "materials" to create more puppets.

When he heard that the battle would likely take place among Pakura and some mysterious, powerful ninjas, his interest was immediately piqued.

After all, only excellent materials can be used to create a more perfect puppet!

He searched for several days but found nothing.

He even killed several search teams, but still had no reliable intelligence, which frustrated him somewhat.

"Let's keep looking. Anyway, the organization doesn't have any missions. But we can't stay here too long. It seems like their secret service has made a move."

Scorpion wasn't afraid of the Dark Guard, but he didn't want a bunch of fleas always following him around; it was too annoying.

"Looks like I need to create a new puppet to somewhat conceal my identity."

Scorpion thought to himself, but just then, he suddenly noticed a group of people moving forward in the desert ahead—

"It seems that you didn't get any valuable information, senior."

Walking on the desert, Xiuze glanced at Shisui, whose face was dark, and then looked back at Yecang, who seemed a little listless. Xiuze smiled and said.

Two days have passed in the blink of an eye, and Shisui has used quite a few illusion techniques on Yekura.

But without exception, the final result was that Yekura really knew nothing!

Although everyone expected this outcome, after all, if you really want to sell someone, how could you tell them in advance?

However, the lack of any valuable information was somewhat disappointing.

"As expected, after all, didn't you already say so?"

Xi Yan tilted her head and glanced at Ye Cang before looking at Xiu Ze.

"Also, next time you run into trouble, let us know. Don't always try to solve things on your own; we're teammates!"

"Yes, yes, I understand. Thank you for your concern, senior."

Xiuze smiled and nodded in agreement, after all, strictly speaking, their evacuation this time was indeed related to him.

Because Xiuzawa still needs to help Kabuto, since Kabuto tricked his own people into coming here so that Xiuzawa could wipe them all out, and he needs to stay in the village for the time being.

Therefore, he also needed to report some things back, so Xiuze and the others could not stay in this place any longer.

Besides, Xiuze also has his own plans, and it's time for him to make a move.

Xiuze wasn't quite sure what Kabuto was planning, but the kid's talent for being a spy was off the charts.

However, Xiuze also had his own plans, which was to help his younger brother.

"For example, how about using bitterness to stop the flow of water?"

Xiuze's gaze unconsciously drifted to Shisui, who was staring at Yecang to prevent her from escaping.

Shuzawa had been thinking for a long time about how to make Kabuto more effective, especially how to get Kazekage out of the office, which was a real problem.

After much thought, it seems the best solution is to let Shisui, who has most likely already activated the Kaleidoscope at this point in time, contribute his efforts!

This idea, after all, Shisui possesses the Flower Lens; if he can exert the necessary effect, it might actually force the Kazekage to reveal himself.

Of course, the kaleidoscope alone is probably not enough to get the Kazekage to act, so Yekura is just a bargaining chip for him!

His initial plan was to plant a trap for Yekura, and then rely on Shisui to take action, forcing the Kazekage to negotiate.

That guy Rasa is probably negotiating with Kirigakure right now, and Pakura is his bargaining chip, so there's a high chance he'll come.

Moreover, in order to protect Yekura's reputation, he might talk to her privately.

In this way, Hidezawa could brazenly frame Danzo and also leave a seed for Yokura.

"But now?"

Now, he wants more!

If Kabuto steals the information, wouldn't that allow the seeds of suspicion in Yekura to take root and sprout?

And wouldn't this event allow Lord Danzo's name to truly resound throughout the skies of Sunagakure?

"I was indeed the most loyal."

Xiuze nodded, and after thinking carefully for a moment, he spoke to Shisui.

"Captain, there's something I'd like to talk to you about."

"Um?"

Shisui paused for a moment, then nodded.

"Okay, let's go up ahead."

With that, Shisui took the lead and walked forward, and Yugao quickly took his place to guard Yecang.

After walking a short distance to make sure that Yekura wouldn't overhear their conversation, Shisui asked curiously.

"Do you have any thoughts, Xiuze?"

"Yes, there are some."

Xiuze nodded. Although he already had an idea, he needed to carefully consider the wording.

After all, it is necessary to "suffer" Shisui, and how to get Shisui to willingly "suffer" is a very challenging thing.

"Senior, I've been thinking about a question: how do you think we can bring more benefits to the village?"

"How can the village benefit?"

When this topic comes up, Shisui, the Uchiha dove, gets all excited.

Tell me your thoughts.

"It's actually very simple."

The latest novel is first published here!

Xiuze smiled. He knew some of Shisui's little thoughts, or rather, the little thoughts of this group of Uchiha doves, and he didn't hide them from him.

"Although I have my suspicions, I don't have any concrete evidence to prove it all. But that doesn't stop me from wondering whether the village really wants Sunagakure to get through this crisis safely."

"Xiuze-kun, what do you mean by this?"

Upon hearing this, Shisui frowned instantly. The chaos in Sunagakure was definitely not a good thing for Konoha. Why did things change when it came to Hidezawa?

"What I mean is, Sunagakure cannot be thrown into chaos, as this will affect Konoha."

Xiuze sighed helplessly; Shisui was truly exceptionally foolish.

"But Sunagakure will have to pay a price, and it may not even be able to resist Iwagakure to the north. This seems to be more beneficial to us, right?"

After all, a complete Sunagakure dares to provoke Konoha, while a broken Sunagakure would be Konoha's best ally, wouldn't it?

"Forehead"

Shisui couldn't quite understand Xiuze's words because they were too convoluted, but upon closer inspection, they didn't seem to have any problems.

Wasn't the outbreak of the Third Shinobi World War instigated by Sunagakure? And since they lost, they became allies.

But if even the Hokage doesn't trust this ally, then suppressing them and preventing them from having a chance to turn things around will keep them as allies indefinitely.

Tell me more!

Zhi Shui finally figured it out, and asked with a gleam in his eyes.

"It's not actually that difficult, it just requires more effort from those with more experience."

Xiuze spoke cautiously, but Shisui didn't seem to care and asked directly.

"Tell me more details. If there are no problems, I can do it for the village."

"That's good, that's good."

A smile appeared on Xiuze's face beneath the mask. "Since you're willing, that makes things much easier."

"First, let's..."

Just as Xiuze was about to say something, his gaze suddenly turned to the distance, and not only him, Shisui's gaze also turned to that direction.

In the distance, a lone figure appeared in the sandstorm, the raging sand making the figure appear somewhat blurry.

He walked slowly towards Xiuzawa and the others, and Xiuzawa could sense that there seemed to be a dangerous and enormous chakra within this guy.

"This is."

Shisui frowned, but as the figure drew closer, Xiuze's expression changed slightly!

The stranger wore a long robe with a black background and red clouds, and his short red hair fluttered in the wind.

The pair of eyes that were exposed were exceptionally bright, but the look in them was extremely unsettling, as if a wild beast were watching its prey.

"Is this guy... a scorpion?"

Xiuze murmured to himself, but then he suddenly remembered something, and his eyes began to light up slightly.

"Wait, Scorpion!"
