Shinji suddenly remembered why he had come here in the first place.

"Could firsthand combat intelligence about that guy fetch a good price?"

"Hey, money isn't important. I just want to make friends with Sunagakure."

Shinji suddenly understood.

Once he sells all this crucial information to Sunagakure, it will definitely be enough to give them a hard time!

After all, without the Serpent Sword, the opponent's unbeatable strength decreased drastically.

The biggest threat is that field whose power is unknown and could be perfected at any time.

Of course, this has nothing to do with him.

He couldn't be more eager for the entire Sunagakure army to be mobilized to help him detect the mines!

"...bastard Shinji!"

"Ok?"

"I've called you several times, what are you muttering to yourself about?"

"Oh, you're still alive?"

"Zhao! Even if I die, I'll drag you down with me!"

"Um, um, okay, is there anything else?" Shinji replied in an extremely perfunctory manner.

Hidan's face turned red before he finally managed to stammer out, "Why the hell don't you sew my head back up?!"

"Hey, you should have said so earlier! How am I supposed to know what you're up to if you don't tell me... Hmm? Is there anything else?"

Hidan hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "Make sure it looks nice, otherwise I'll have to take it apart and sew it again later."

"Damn! I've never seen you so concerned about maintaining your image before!"

Shinji gave him the middle finger, but didn't rush to sew up his head.

Instead, he took out the [Greedy Eyeball] first, and only after confirming that there were no other cursed spirits around did he pick up Fei Duan's head and sew it up with blood thread.

Although his skills were indeed not very good, Hidan was still dismembered by someone (or himself) every now and then.

So the finished result was so-so, at least much better than the crooked stitches of the first time.

Hidan wasn't entirely satisfied, but he knew that if he kept complaining, that bastard might sew his mouth back to his ass next time.

"That guy got away?"

"Ah, they fooled me in the end. I thought I was doomed, but it turned out to be an empty shell. They made some threats and then ran away."

"The next time I see him, I'm going to chop him into pieces."

Hidan's eyes were fierce, and he spat on the ground.

Shinji immediately gave a thumbs up, "Don't worry, I won't stop you when the time comes."

"What a wasted trip. Where do we go next?" Hidan stretched his neck, somewhat annoyed.

Shinji touched the golden serpent sword in his arms, thinking to himself, "This trip wasn't a waste at all; I'm completely exhausted from winning..."

"Find the location of the underground gold exchange in the Land of Wind. I'm sure the firsthand combat intelligence we brought will fetch a good price."

Although they planned to send Sunagakure to cause trouble for Cyber, if the two of them were to brazenly go to Sunagakure to sell information, let alone make money, it would be a question whether they would even survive to get out.

Therefore, in such situations, intermediaries like Huanjinsuo are needed.

Even Sunagakure wouldn't risk a complete falling out with the forces behind the Gold Exchange over such a piece of information. It's not that they couldn't, but the cost wouldn't be high enough.

Hidan naturally had no objections, and the two cleaned up the scene before continuing their journey.

. . . . . .

Two days later, Sunagakure acquired a valuable intelligence report and presented it to the Kazekage, Rasa.

The document details 'Sand Spirit' Cybert's various abilities (excluding his domain) and his weaknesses.

They even provided action guidelines for several options, which seemed highly feasible.

"Has this intelligence been verified?"

Luo Sha put down the intelligence report and asked.

"We have compared it with the mission report from Maki and others, and it is completely consistent, even more detailed, so the speculation is true."

"Hmm? The speculation is true?"

"The other party was very cautious and cunning. They spread the word through an underground gold exchange to lure our people there, but they never showed up during the entire transaction. We also tried to stake out the area, but we didn't get anything. The money from the transaction was probably withdrawn through another underground gold exchange."

Luo Sha thought about it and decided to forget about it.

After all, based on the intelligence reports sent back by Maki and others, the strength of 'Sharin' Cybert should not be underestimated.

The fact that the other party was able to obtain such detailed intelligence undoubtedly means that they had personally fought against the enemy and escaped unscathed.

In these turbulent times, there's no need to offend a powerful figure of unknown strength for the sake of a piece of information or some money.

Of course, this is all on the premise that the other party did not lie to him about this information!

[Chapter 86: Re-forging]

Inside the medical room of Sunagakure Village.

"How is he?"

"Vitality signs are all normal..."

"Everything is normal, so why won't he wake up?"

"We...we don't know either."

After a brief conversation, the doctor shook his head and left.

Only Maki, Juan, and Mahler, who lay motionless on the hospital bed, remained in the room.

For unknown reasons, after bringing Mahler back to the village, he remained unconscious.

Juan was very worried, but there was nothing she could do to help.

"Don't be too pessimistic. It's already a great achievement that you were able to come back alive."

Maki offered a dry, unconvincing word of comfort.

Juan didn't seem to hear her, but just hummed in response.

"By the way, it seems that Lord Kazekage has obtained some very important information. Perhaps next time, we will be able to successfully capture 'Sand Spirit' Cybert, and then we might be able to find out what he did to Mahler."

There are some things he can't reveal casually, but without disclosing the specifics, it's necessary to casually mention it to Juan Ti to help him regain confidence.

After all, the recent series of events has caused considerable losses to the Sealing Squad.

Mahler remains unconscious, and it would be even worse if he were to collapse further.

Upon hearing this, Juan nodded firmly.

If Brother Mahler remains unconscious, then the problem must lie with 'Shalin' Cybert. Finding and subduing him is the only solution!

Seeing this, Machi felt much relieved.

In addition, due to this series of unexpected events, coupled with Mahler's continued coma, the fact that Mahler had previously sent people to monitor the two wandering ninjas has yet to receive any news has temporarily gone unnoticed.

This also explains why the wanted notice that someone had anticipated was delayed...

. . . . . . .

"Why did we even come to this godforsaken place to do this? I hate this feeling."

Under the bright sunlight, the green willows provide ample shade.

One by one, passengers were buried in pre-dug sand pits, including Shinji and Hidan who was complaining.

This is a tourism project created by the Wind Kingdom to generate revenue, euphemistically called: Sand Bath!

Shinji always thought that sand bathing meant something on a beach at the seaside, or even indoors.

In reality, natural sand bathing originated in remote deserts, where prolonged exposure to solar radiation heats the sand, allowing people to bury half or all of their bodies in the sand for a sand bath.

Of course, this time must be well controlled, otherwise the person will die before even experiencing it.

The design here is very human-centered. The location is on the edge of the oasis, with rows of trees nearby. The dense foliage can block some of the scorching sun.

This ensures that the remaining sunlight is absorbed by the sand and the temperature does not become too high.

The warm, fine sand felt wonderfully comfortable against my skin.

To be honest, Shinji's experience was quite good.

Especially after an intense battle, coming to a place like this to relax is just so nice!

But Hidan's experience was terrible.

He was very unaccustomed to and felt very insecure because he had almost been swallowed by quicksand twice before.

With only his head showing and wearing sunglasses, Shinji whispered, "Calm down. Don't forget we took down those Sunagakure henchmen and swindled a huge sum of money from them. They're definitely wanted by the authorities now."

"Is there any necessary connection between being wanted by the police and staying here to take a sand bath? Shouldn't you run away as soon as possible?"

Hidan sat up abruptly, revealing his 'average' abs, which caused several women nearby to scream repeatedly.

Shinji thought to himself, "Women these days really have no taste, their aesthetic sense is so low."

Then he explained, "If even someone with your brain can think of that, do you think the people of Sunagakure wouldn't?"

"So they will definitely send people to strictly check the roads leading out of the country. Going out now is simply walking into a trap."

"Although forcing our way in is one option, since there are other choices, there's no need to fight to the death with the people of Sunagakure."

"They would never have imagined that we would do the opposite, coming to such a deep place and lying here openly to sunbathe."

Hidan thought about it and, aside from feeling that this bastard had mocked his intelligence again, it seemed to be true.

The more dangerous a place is, the safer it is.

"Tch, unnecessary. I really don't want to stay in this country full of sand for even a day longer."

After saying that, Hidan lay back down in the pit and buried himself again with his hands.
