"Where's Gaara? Where is he?" Naruto asked.

"this..."

Temari looked unhappy, "He's been taken away for almost a day. Kankuro went after him alone, but there's no news yet."

Naruto clenched his fists: "How could this happen... Kakashi-sensei, find a solution quickly!"

Kakashi was not vague and immediately summoned Parker.

Parker was a little dissatisfied: "Kakashi, what do you want from me? I'm still waiting for Xiaohui to communicate with me, can you please leave me alone?" Kakashi was speechless: "Don't make trouble, the situation is serious this time. You remember Kankuro's scent, right? Take us to find Kankuro now! By the way, you lock the direction, and we will take the giant eagle to find him!"

Parker didn't act pretentiously and immediately started working mode.

Its tracking ability is very powerful. As long as it smells familiar and there are traces of it on the road, it can find it.

Kankuro hadn't been gone for long, and the smell was basically still there, so he quickly locked onto the direction.

Tiantian summoned Badora's two giant eagles again, and then everyone jumped onto the eagle's back. The giant eagle immediately took off into the air and flew towards the direction that Parker had locked onto.

Then everyone seemed to realize that not only was Temari on the eagle's back, but there was also an old lady.

Temari was stunned: "Grandma Chiyo, why are you here too?"

Chiyo's mouth was leaking air, and he had no teeth left. "I heard that it was my useless grandson who captured Gaara, so I had to confirm it myself. If it is really my grandson, I will teach him a lesson myself!"

The information about Deidara and Sasori was naturally shared with Konoha.

Because of this, Chiyo's mother-in-law and her siblings were alarmed.

Grandma Chiyo is a decisive woman and she will not just sit there and wait.

Then, when Granny Chiyo saw Kakashi, she felt as if she saw her enemy, so she subconsciously reached out and pinched him: "Damn White Fang! Give me back the lives of my son and daughter-in-law!"

Kakashi was startled and quickly dodged to the side.

Fortunately, Temari hugged the person in time: "Grandma Chiyo, look carefully! That's not Konoha White Fang! It's Hatake Kakashi!"

Granny Chiyo was stunned for a moment, then looked at Kakashi carefully. Then she came to her senses and acted cute: "I made a mistake, hey!"

Hey, what does it mean?

This old woman!

Fortunately, since both Natsuki and Sasuke learned the White Fang sword technique, everyone basically knew who the White Fang of Konoha was. According to Chiyo's mother-in-law, the White Fang killed her son and daughter-in-law, which was quite a hatred. However, these were grudges of the previous generation, and the younger generation really had no right to interfere.

Naruto, however, asked curiously, "Grandma Chiyo said that your grandson captured Gaara? Could your grandson be the guy who played with clay?"

Temari said hurriedly: "It's not Deidara, it's Scorpion of the Red Sand!"

"Hey! That puppet man?" Naruto looked at Granny Chiyo, and could not see any similarities between Granny Chiyo and Scorpion.

"Hohoho, Puppet Man? That's an apt name."

Grandma Chiyo's smile was so intense that her teeth couldn't be seen. "Scorpion has always been a gifted puppeteer, showing amazing talent since childhood. I'm afraid his puppetry has reached its peak now. You've seen Kankuro's crow puppet, right? It was Scorpion's toy when he was a child."

Everyone was shocked.

Kankuro's strength is not weak, and his puppet is not bad either.

But that puppet was just a toy of Scorpion when he was a child. It is hard to imagine how powerful Scorpion is now.

Oh, I experienced this last time. Just a scorpion tail was enough to tie everyone up, and the subsequent thousand-blade attack almost poisoned several people to death. Everyone is still feeling the urge to do so.

Fortunately, this time we should have a chance to take revenge. We haven’t been playing around these past two years!

Under Parker's guidance, the giant eagle moved very quickly and soon found Kankuro lying in the desert.

"Kankuro! Are you okay?!"

Temari jumped down anxiously, but didn't dare to touch it, so she could only worry.

Just as Chiyo was about to step forward, Sakura crouched down first to investigate and quickly came up with the answer: "He's been poisoned. The poison must be extracted immediately and an antidote prepared. Fortunately, we discovered it early, and the poison hasn't spread further. We can still treat him quickly, but this environment..."

Grandma Chiyo was surprised and quickly checked and found that the little girl was right.

"You are..." Grandma Chiyo was curious.

"I am Master Tsunade's disciple!" Sakura introduced herself as her master.

"So you're Tsunade-sama's disciple, no wonder you're so outstanding. In that case, I'll leave Kankuro's treatment to you!"

After seeing this, Chiyoko wasn't sure she could remove the poison her grandson had made. Luckily, Tsunade's disciples were there, and seeing the girl's confident look, it should be no problem. So, the old woman continued to chase her grandson. Some things had to be resolved.

Kakashi looked at Tenten: "Tenten, can your Flying Thunder God carry people?"

Tiantian shook his head: "I can't lead anyone yet."

Kakashi understood: "Then we can only use the giant eagle to take Sakura and Kankuro back to the Sand Village..."

Before he could finish his words, Kankuro started coughing and struggling: "Ahem! Wait, wait a minute! There's something here that can track the Red Sand Scorpion..."

As he spoke, the hand controlling the broken puppet opened its palm to reveal a piece of rag.

Obviously, Kankuro struggled to get it off from Scorpion. With this, 587 can quickly lock on Scorpion's position!

"Okay then, Sakura and Kankuro will take the giant eagle back to the Sand Village, and Temari and Sai will be in charge of escorting them. Everyone else, follow Parker and continue the pursuit. Make sure to rescue Gaara!"

Kakashi gave the order.

Tenten quickly said a few words to Badora, and then everyone worked together to lift Kankuro onto Badora's back. Sakura, Sai and Temari followed and flew away quickly.

Parker also took the opportunity to lock on a direction, and everyone rode on the eagle's back to chase after it again.

Unexpectedly, they flew all the way out of the desert and headed towards the border of the River Country. There were forests all below them along the way. If Parker hadn't been smelling it all the way, he might have missed it.

Kakashi used the Water Style: Telescope Technique to look all the way and soon locked onto three figures.

One is Scorpion of the Red Sand, one is Deidara, and the other is a low-flying clay bird that is encircling Gaara.

Caught up!

Scorpion and Deidara were also very perceptive and had already noticed the attack.

"Damn it! We came too fast! We haven't even reached the cave yet!" Deidara yelled.

"..."

At this time, the Red Sand Scorpion in Feiliu Arum was staring at the old woman who jumped off the eagle's back. There was no movement for a long time. He didn't expect that his own grandmother would come too.

It's not a good idea for the grandfather and grandson to meet at this time.

Chapter 243 Shibuki and Fu

In Takigakure Village, Xia Mu returned safely with Fu.

When Shibuki saw that Fu was safe and sound, tears welled up in his eyes and he hugged Fu in his arms.

It was the first time Fu had seen Shibuki like this, and for a moment she didn't know what to do, so she could only offer comfort in a stiff tone. However, Fu felt a different gaze from the others.

As a Jinchūriki, she was not treated well in the village.

The villagers and ninjas thought she was a monster, and they often treated her with cold violence and never showed her any warmth.

Now, the look in his eyes when he looked at her was even colder.

Fu knew what was going on. The man in the spiral mask had come to capture her. The previous deaths might be blamed on her, and everyone would think she was responsible. If only she weren't in the village. And now that she'd been rescued, would the masked man return? Would he kill more people?

Anyway, no one will welcome Fu like Shimu does. Some people want her to go away, and some even want her to die!

People are like this. Once they are hurt, instead of blaming the culprit, they blame some other victims. It makes people angry and funny.

Fu lowered her eyes silently, feeling indescribably lost.

She knew that she could no longer stay in the village.

Shibuki took a while to recover and thanked Xia Mu solemnly: "Sir Xia Mu, thank you for saving Fu! I have always treated Fu as a sister, but I was unable to protect her. Now it seems that my persistence was ridiculous. It was my willful will that killed my fellow villagers. It was my inability to protect Fu. I am really useless!"

Xia Mu nodded secretly, this leader was pretty good.

He took the responsibility on himself and shared it with Fu. He really treated Fu as a family member.

Fu wanted to argue, but was stopped by Shibuki, and her eyes suddenly became red.

Seeing this, Xia Mu changed the subject. "Captain Shibuki, I'm sure you understand that the Akatsuki organization is extremely powerful and not easy to deal with. They've begun to hunt down the Tailed Beast Jinchūriki. Not only you, but also the Jinchūriki of the major villages are being targeted. So, what are your plans?"

Shibuki hesitated when he heard this. He glanced at Fu, then at the villagers, and didn't say anything for a long time.

But the looks of the villagers and ninjas said it all. They didn't want Fu to stay any longer. In their eyes, Fu had never been one of them, and now she was a troublemaker.

So, Fu had no choice but to leave!

Fu then took the initiative and said, "I can't stay any longer! I want to go with Xia Mu!"

Shibuki opened his mouth and finally sighed: "Ah! Lord Natsuki, can I talk to Lord Hokage? After all, Fu is my sister, and as her brother, I can't just ignore her!"

"Yes, I can take you and Fu to the Hokage right now. Do you need any guards?"

Xia Mu didn't want to dwell on this matter. Since Shibuki wanted to see the Hokage, he would just take him there and let him talk to Tsunade about anything.

Shibuki said hurriedly: "I trust Mr. Xiamu and Mr. Hokage, so there is no need for guards."

Xia Mu nodded and left a spell on the table beside him. He said to the others, "I will take your leader away for a while. He will be safe, so don't worry. I will bring him back to this spell later. Please don't touch this table."

Everyone looked at each other, not understanding what it meant.

It wasn't until he saw Xia Mu, Fu and Shibuki disappear from the spot that he suddenly realized what was going on.

It turns out that this Konoha ninja can teleport!

No wonder he was able to rescue Fu from that scary masked man!

Swish! Xia Mu appeared in the Hokage's office with two people: "Tsunade-sama, I have rescued Fu. And this is Shibuki, the leader of Takigakure Village. He wants to talk to you."

Tsunade was busy and smiled when she saw this: "Hello, Chief Shibuki, Fu, I am Tsunade, the Hokage of Konoha Village."

Shibuki was still amazed at Xia Mu's speed. Upon hearing this, he quickly pulled Fu to salute and said, "Hello, Lord Hokage, thank you for sending Lord Xia Mu to rescue us. This time, I came mainly to discuss Fu's problem with you."

Xia Mu silently found a chair to sit down, then took out some snacks and started eating.

Since Shizune became the director of Konoha Hospital, she is very busy now and has little time to come to the office to help Tsunade, so there is not even anyone to pour tea for her.

So Xia Mu simply took matters into his own hands and poured not only a cup for himself, but also for Tsunade, Fu, and Shibuki.

I handed Fu some snacks, and the little girl ate them with gusto.

Shibuki looked helpless and doting as he continued talking to Tsunade.

The discussion mainly focused on the issue of Fu's protection. Currently, Takigakure is unable to protect the Jinchūriki, and if they try to forcibly protect her, they will only risk the destruction of the village. However, Shibuki is uneasy about leaving Fu in the hands of others, so he wants to know how Konoha Village will protect Fu. If that's not possible, Takigakure can pay for the commission.

Shibuki wouldn't be so stupid as to think that Konoha could protect Fu for no reason. There must be some purpose behind it.

Tsunade said sincerely, "Don't worry, Chief Shibuki. We in Konoha have no bad intentions. Currently, the Akatsuki organization is hunting down the Tailed Beast Jinchuriki everywhere, and our Konoha Jinchuriki has also been targeted. They are very powerful, and the entire organization is composed of S-rank rebel ninjas from various villages. It will not be easy to deal with them."

As for their purpose, it is still unclear, but just in case, they cannot be allowed to obtain the tailed beast, and protecting Fu is also to crush the conspiracy of the Akatsuki organization."

Shibuki felt relieved after hearing this.

If Tsunade said that she would protect Fu for free for the sake of love and peace, Shibuki would definitely not believe it.

But it does make sense to say that it was a conspiracy against the Akatsuki organization. Maybe protecting Fu was just a convenient plan, but it was a great help to Shibuki.

At this time, Shikamaru knocked on the door and came in. Seeing Tsunade meeting a guest, he did not avoid her. He was now the office advisor.

He saw Xia Mu (Li Qian Zhao) eating snacks nearby, so he leaned over and whispered, "Xia Mu, what's going on?"

Natsuki pointed at the two guests with his chin: "The leader of Takigakure, Shibuki, and the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki, Fu. Takigakure was attacked by the spiral-masked man from the Akatsuki organization before. Fu was taken away and sought help from Konoha. I just rescued her."

Shikamaru understood.

Shikamaru had an impression of Fu when he was an examiner.

She is a lively and cheerful girl, but I didn't expect that she is a Jinchūriki. Her personality seems to be somewhat similar to Naruto.

"Akatsuki has also attacked Takigakure Village?" Shikamaru was surprised.

"More?" Xia Mu paused while eating snacks.

"You don't know yet? A while ago, news came from the Sand Village that the village was attacked by Deidara and the Red Sand Scorpion, and Gaara was seriously injured and taken away. After receiving the news, Lady Tsunade immediately sent the Gai Team and Team 7 to rescue them."

"Oh, I see."

Chapter 244: Saving People and Fighting Enemies

Xia Mu sensed the location of the spells on Tenten and Kakashi, and they were indeed not in the village.
