Naruto: They are all reborn.

Chapter 41 Kakashi…Teacher

The exceptionally bright desert sun shone through the thick frosted glass, illuminating the interior of the tallest tower in Loulan.

An Lushan pushed open the door to the room at the top of the tower and looked at the exquisite doll on the throne: "Queen Sarah, the people are holding a celebration, won't you go and take a look?"

"Huh?" Sarah was slightly taken aback and asked in confusion, "Is today some kind of special day?"

An Lushan shook his head: "Even though it's not a special day, the people are still grateful to the Queen for everything she has done for Loulan. It is you who have brought them the peaceful and happy life they have today."

"Am I really that amazing...?"

"Please do not doubt yourself, Your Majesty. You should appear before your people with a more confident demeanor."

Having said that, An Lushan stepped aside to make way: "Now, please see for yourself the respect your people have for you."

Sarah stopped thinking about what had just happened, stood up and straightened her clothes: "Are the people all ready?"

"certainly."

Sarah no longer hesitated and, accompanied by two puppets, left the main hall and headed to the viewing platform in the tower.

The puppets opened the gate, and the blinding sunlight made Sarah feel slightly uncomfortable, but then a roar of cheers filled her ears.

It seems everyone is very happy.

Sarah walked forward and stood at the very front of the viewing platform, close to the railing, trying to look down at the crowd below.

"I really want to see the smiles on their faces..."

Sarah actually wanted to go to the bottom of the tower and be with her people, but An Lushan taught her that a queen should keep her distance from her people to maintain her authority, only in this way would her people be willing to obey her orders.

Suddenly, a hand reached out from behind and pushed her on the back. The sturdy viewing platform just happened to break, leaving her to be captured by gravity.

"Time was too tight, otherwise I would have definitely prepared a more ceremonial way for you to die, Queen Sarah..."

Before An Lushan could finish speaking, a cold light pierced out from behind, and Kakashi, wielding a ninja sword, swiftly and cleanly plunged it into An Lushan's body.

"Something feels off in my hands..."

Kakashi's eyes changed slightly; having missed his attack, he immediately retreated.

On the other side, Shi Xu jumped out from the middle of the tower, caught Sarah with one hand, and then swung back and forth while holding onto the fixed steel wire with the other hand. His movements were as smooth as those of that failed man (Spider-Man).

Sarah, still in shock, saw herself lying in the arms of a man...a boy. She glanced down and the dizzying height and the noisy voices of the people made Sarah struggle in panic.

Shi Xu, his feet imbued with chakra, stepped onto the side of the tower, tightening his grip on her hand slightly: "Queen Sara, please behave yourself. I still need to go support my companions."

After saying that, without waiting for her to agree or not, Shi Xu grabbed her and rushed up the tower.

Realizing she was getting farther and farther away from the ground, Sarah closed her eyes in fright. But the price of shutting off her sight was heightened hearing; listening to the whistling wind in her ears, Sarah's heart began to beat faster and faster.

Just then, a strong heartbeat broke through the wind, and she suddenly realized that she wouldn't fall.

An Lushan was nowhere to be seen atop the tower; only Kakashi and two puppets remained locked in a fierce battle. Shi Xu glanced around and quickly made a decision: "Kakashi, retreat."

This city of Loulan was An Lushan's stronghold. Who knows how many puppets were hidden here? It's best to flee.

Kakashi quickly retreated, forming hand seals: "Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall".

A wide wall of earth rose from the ground, blocking the two puppets on the other side. By the time they blasted through the earthen wall, the three people standing there had long since disappeared.

Once they reached a safe place, Sarah immediately got off Shi Xu, her face cold and stern: "Who are you?"

"We are ninjas from Konoha," Tokio explained, then added, "We've been through thick and thin together, there's no need to be so cold."

"But I just saw it. Your target is An Lushan, an important minister of Loulan. Why should I greet you with a smile?"

Shi Xu waved his hand slightly: "But you were just pushed off the platform by him. If it weren't for me, you would be dead by now."

Sarah remained silent for a long while before saying, word by word, "...Perhaps someone else pushed me."

"Couldn't you come up with a better reason?" Shi Xu rubbed his forehead with one hand. "An Lushan doesn't just want to kill you; he wants to use the power of his puppet army to wage war and rule the world."

"I don't believe it."

"Can you tell me why you're unwilling to give up An Lushan?" Shi Xu couldn't take it anymore. If it weren't for Sara's connection to the legendary dragon vein, he would have already given her a personality correction slap.

Sarah noticed Shi Xu's change in mood and her expression became tense: "It's not that I can't lose An Lushan, but that Loulan can't lose him. Before that man came, Loulan was only the size of a village, and the people worked hard every day but could only barely make ends meet."

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

"With An Lushan's power, it is impossible for him to fight against the entire ninja world. Once the war starts, only destruction awaits Loulan."

"I know... but what can I do?" Sarah's eyes were full of confusion.

"An Lushan came to this country when my mother was still alive. Since then, Loulan has been ruled by An Lushan. I am of no use."

Just then, Naruto Namikaze's voice suddenly rang out from the side.

"Queen Sarah, An Lushan has not governed Loulan well. On the contrary, your people are suffering under this false prosperity."

Almost the instant the sound rang out, Kakashi had already gripped his kunai, ready to strike. Fortunately, he saw Naruto's headband before he could make his move, and managed to stop himself from throwing the kunai.

Naruto took in Kakashi's every move, and walked forward with a hint of nostalgia in his eyes.

"It's been a long time, Kakashi... teacher."

Sarah clenched her fists tightly and waved her hand dismissively: "What nonsense are you spouting now? I see the lives of my people every day..."

"Those are just puppets," Naruto interrupted her. "If you don't believe me, come with me."

Naruto turned and left without showing any mercy, and Sara hesitated for a moment before quickly following after him.

They evaded the patrolling puppets and returned to the scene of the crime. Even though the Queen of Loulan fell from the viewing platform, the people celebrating below the tower remained unchanged.

Before Sara could ask any questions, Naruto drew his chakra sword and rushed out. When he returned, he was carrying a puppet disguised as a person from Loulan.

He threw the puppet on the ground, its parts clattering against each other, the sound echoing in the quiet air.
