At the Sand Border of Sunagakure.
The mechanical puppet that was responsible for surveying the Sand Border had already shattered to the ground. It was clear that it had been defeated. "Damn it, my body is no longer numb. Could he use poison?"
Under the scorpion cloak, his face was gloomy. "Although your skills are not bad, it's a pity that you chose the wrong opponent because I knew from the beginning that your puppet was master."
"What?!"
Upon hearing Sasori's words, Kankuro was shocked.
"Hehe, looking at your surprised expression, you must be thinking about how your attack was seen through, right? This is very normal, because the puppet you used, [Karasu], [ Kuroari], and [Sanshouo], all cfrom my hands!"
"Huh?" Upon hearing this, Kankuro could not hide the astonishment on his face.
It turned out that the puppet technique he was good at had met his grandmaster. It could be said that he had displayed a broad axe in front of double bit. Sasori could not help but sigh.
"Humph! I never thought that I would play with the remaining juniors. It's really a long-lost feeling. Interesting."
Kankuro seemed to have a look of realization, "You… You're not Sasori of the Red Sand who had beca puppet-making genius, are you?"
Sasori said, "A little brat like you actually knows my name. What an honor."

"Why are you still asking so many questions when you are about to die?"
After saying that, the giant tail behind him, which was like a white bone, fiercely lashed out at Kankuro.
At this time, in Konoha.
The two teams – Kakashi and Yamato – gathered together.
Yamato had other important tasks, so they were sent to other places, so Leiyin, Eri, and Meng Xiaomeng were under Kakashi's command.
"Well, let's go!"
The six of them were ready to set off.
"Bye, Tsunade-sama." Meng Xiaomeng said goodbye to Tsunade, but the male ninja who cto send them off at the village entrance never looked away from her.
At this time, a figure suddenly appeared. "Hey! Are you going to carry out a mission?"
It turned out to be Jiraya.
"Hey!" Naruto said.
Jiraya turned his head to Tsunade, "Tsunade , this is not good. That Kazekage."
Tsunade crossed her arms in front of her chest. "Needless to say, I already know. This mission is for this purpose."
And Jiraya waved at Naruto, "Naruto, chere."
"Huh?"
"Those who meet [Akatsuki] must not fight them head-on." Jiraya said seriously.
Naruto was the Jinchuriki of the Kyubi, and this identity was the target of [Akatsuki].
Naruto didn't want to admit defeat. "They actually want to find me. This time, I will go directly to them."
Jiraya pondered for a moment, "You have indeed becstronger, but if you can't calm down, it is no different from suicide. Your biggest weakness is that you are easily excited."
"…"
"Naruto, I hope you can think about it yourself." Jiraya continued, "You can't use that technique no matter what, understand?"
Naruto lowered his head and looked a little unwilling. "I… understand."
"And Kakashi, you have to look after Naruto well. Don't let him mess around. Please."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn fact, Jiraya didn't want Naruto to take the risk. In fact, he was a JInchuriki, and was the target of [Akatsuki]. Although his strength had becstronger, he definitely hadn't grown to the level where he could compete with [Akatsuki]. In private, he was his own student. The two of them were like father and son, and Jiraya didn't want him to be in danger.
However, Naruto was a ninja. If he was afraid of taking risks, then why would he still be a ninja?
"In that case, everyone, let's go!"
"Growing up, how incredible."
……
Sunagakure.
Sasori easily dealt a heavy blow to Kankuro, but he did not kill it. Perhaps because they were both Sunagakure Puppet Masters, Sasori did not kill him, and left.
Not only was he injured, but he was also poisoned by the scorpion and was saved by the ninja from Sunagakure.
Baki and a group of ninjas surrounded him in front of his bed, all of them frowning. "We have never seen this kind of poison before. We don't know how to cure it. If this goes on, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold on for long. At most, it will only be two or three days."
Baki's mood is very low, "Before it was Gaara. Now that things have cto this, I'm afraid we can only look for that pair of brother and sister who have been retired for a long time."
……
At this time, Kakashi, Leiyin, and the others are rushing towards Sunagakure.
Sasori also caught up with the footsteps of his teammate, Deidara.
"You are so slow, Sasori." Deidara, who had been waiting in the sand for a long time, complained.
Sasori said, "Don't complain. The higher-ups want you to capture one. I am helping you to cover the retreat."
