Sunshine Sasuke, from the forum to the strongest in the ninja world

"Have you been waiting for a long time?"

"It's okay. We don't expect to leave until half an hour later."

Aburame Shiwei answered without any emotion.

The eyes behind the sunglasses glanced in Temari's direction intentionally or unintentionally.

As the departure was imminent, people around were checking their bags and equipment, and speaking parting words in groups of three or four.

Seeing this, Nara Shikamaru finally plucked up the courage, walked quickly to Temari's side, and quietly pulled her aside.

"went well?"

Temari asked first.

She was smiling brightly, like a proud sun in the desert.

Shikamaru nodded obediently and said:

"Thanks to your information. I think the Scorpion of Red Sand is indeed the only person Granny Chiyo cares about.

"In addition, Senior Ebizou's intelligence network can also be used."

"As long as it goes well."

Temari smiled and nodded.

After a pause, she pretended to be relaxed and said loudly:

"You kid, don't get too carried away."

"how come."

Shikamaru felt a little embarrassed and his voice became lower and lower.

After a while, he finally mustered up the courage and asked Temari:

"Um, 伱, are you sure you don't want to go back with me, I mean, with us?"

Shikamaru's face was red and he could feel his heart pounding.

"No."

Temari shook her head solemnly and replied:

"Lord Hokage is right, Gaara's matter is the internal affairs of Sunagakure Ninja Village.

"Only by staying here can I participate in his recovery as soon as possible."

"Oh fine."

Shikamaru lowered his head, regretting it already in his heart.

Originally, it was a guessable answer.

It's something we obviously know, so why do we have to ask.

It's really, really bad.

Shikamaru was annoyed.

"What? Are you still thinking about bringing the hostages back to Konoha? Are you still thinking about the 800 million taels of compensation?"

After seeing the other person's embarrassment, Temari felt funny in her heart.

I couldn't help but tease the boy with a pineapple hair in front of me.

"how could be!"

Nara Shikamaru waved his hands repeatedly and said with a red face:

“On the one hand, bringing you back together this time is indeed based on your strong personal wishes.

“But more importantly, I want the Sunagakure Ninja Village to see Konoha’s sincerity.

"At the meeting, Uncle Zhiwei also made it clear that in view of the current special period, those compensation payments have also been made."

"Oh~~So, I'm just being sincere."

Temari said this deliberately with her hands behind her back and her eyes looking up at the sky.

"No, it's not

"Ugh"

Nara Shikamaru felt that the explanation was unclear.

Sighing deeply, I completely regretted this conversation.

Women are really troublesome.

Just as Shikamaru lowered his head, he felt a shadow cast down upon him.

Immediately afterwards, his face felt hot and a pair of warm lips kissed his cheek.

At that moment, time seemed to stand still.

Between heaven and earth, there was only the girl's warm breath and the remaining wonderful touch on her cheek.

Temari stood up and stood where she was, looking around with a red face.

call.

Thankfully, no one paid any particular attention to either of them.

Nara Shikamaru widened his eyes and looked at the other person in disbelief, feeling his cheeks burning as if they were about to burn.

"Thank you."

Temari looked at him, her eyes full of tenderness and love.

“This period of living in the Nara Residence was the happiest day in my life.

"When you go back, say hello to Uncle Shikaku and Aunt Yoshino for me. If,"

Temari paused and took a deep breath.

She mustered up her courage, looked into Shikamaru's eyes and said:

"If possible, I would like to go back to that place to live."

"Hey! It's time to go!"

In the distance, the Konoha delegation had already started to move out, calling out loudly to Nara Shikamaru.

At this moment, Shikamaru just woke up from a dream, he was at a loss and didn't know what to say.

"That,"

On the other side, Temari showed a hearty smile again, raised her hand and said:

"Goodbye!"

"goodbye."

Shikamaru carefully touched the spot on his face that had just been kissed.

I just feel that everything is so unreal.

The dust was flying and the crowds set off.

In a panic, Shikamaru bowed hastily, turned around and ran towards the delegation.

-

Bird country, along the northern border.

Between the lakeside, there are lush aquatic plants.

Between heaven and earth, the clear and ethereal sound of wind chimes occasionally echoes.

Along with it, there was a low, teeth-grinding, heavy friction sound, which continued to make a "rumbling" sound.

Looking closer, I saw a hunchbacked old man with a strange shape on the grass, wearing a black robe embroidered with red auspicious clouds, walking among the green.

The old man's entire body was covered by the black robe.

His back was so hunched that from a distance, his whole body looked like a small raised sand dune.

His feet were covered by the black robe, and there were long marks behind him, and a constant strange "rumbling" sound.

We have reason to suspect that the old man's way of moving is not to walk alternately on his feet, but to use mechanical tracks to travel.

Under the bamboo hat, the old man's skin was rough and his eye sockets were sunken.

From the nose down, the entire face is covered in a black beard-like mask, and the appearance is extremely vulgar and ugly.

A member of the Akatsuki organization, the powerful ninja, the Red Sand Scorpion, who once controlled Yakushi Kabuto using "submersible brain manipulation sand", walked alone in the Kingdom of Birds.

His lovely partner was recently summoned to the Amegakure Ninja Village by Tendo Pain, the leader of the Akatsuki organization for unknown reasons.

The wind chimes on the hat kept swaying as the old man walked alone.

A gust of wind blew by, and the old man suddenly stopped and said:

"Now that you're here, what are you doing sneakily?"

Along with the old man's hoarse voice, a strong young man jumped out from the bushes beside the lake.

"Ahaha! As expected of Sunagakure-senpai who shares the same name as me, you found me so quickly!"

This is?

The Red Sand Scorpion's deep eyes looked the young man up and down.

I saw this man with short hair, Chinese character face, and ordinary appearance.

Even his attire was just that of an ordinary civilian, and he didn't even look like a ninja.

The young man walked quickly to the side of the Red Sand Scorpion with funny steps, and took out a scroll from his arms for comparison.

In the scroll, Scorpion's appearance is further exaggerated and uglified, but fortunately the features match, and it can still be seen that the two should be the same person.

As the young man compared them, he made "hmm, hmm, hmm" sounds of approval.

Xie just glanced at it and saw the signature mark in the lower right corner of the scroll.

The square dark red seal is like a "curled sandstorm wall". Although it is not big, it is very contagious.
