Reborn Wind Shadow: Begins the Attack on the Fire Nation

In the dark night, above the house.

Maki, the head of the Anbu, stands here, and behind him are five masked Anbu members of the Sand Village.

Their eyes were all fixed on two locations in the Sand Village.

That was the place that the Sand Village used to accommodate the guests from the Cloud Village and the Iwagakure Village.

Tonight, when the Sand Village was holding a night banquet for guests from the Land of Demons, as expected, there were some commotions in these two places.

Two Anbu ninjas instantly appeared in front of Maki and said while half-kneeling on the ground.

"Master Maki, Samoyed, a ninja from the Hidden Cloud Village, used the excuse of wanting to drink to cause a conflict with the Anbu guarding there!"

"It's the same with the Iwagakure Village. The Iwagakure ninja named Moyan also used the excuse of wanting to drink and started a big commotion."

When Maki heard this, he snorted in disdain.

"Humph, you're too lazy to even make up an excuse? What about the others?"

"Our people in the building didn't notice any unusual movements, but we suspect..."

Having said this, the Anbu who spoke hesitated.

"It's just the clone that remains in the room."

Maki understood what his subordinate meant and said with some dissatisfaction in his eyes.

"Go and give it a try!"

"Hey!"

The two ninjas immediately left, and Maki spoke to the five ninjas behind him.

"Let everyone be careful and strictly monitor every move of the village!"

------------------

Because of the celebration, there is no curfew in the Sand Village tonight.

Sarah and Juan happily took the prepared gifts and prepared to visit Kunmi's home.

However, when the two of them passed through the bustling crowd and arrived at the street outside the Sand Clan’s residence, Sarah was startled by the quietness here. She could clearly hear cheerful laughter on the street not far away, but the street in front of her was empty. There was only a huge wall that seemed to separate the two worlds.

Juan, a native who grew up in the Sand Village, explained in a low voice when he saw Sarah like this.

"It has always been like this here, because behind the wall is the residence of the Sand Clan in the village. Ordinary civilians will not come here, so it is relatively deserted."

"Uh-huh!"

Sarah also expressed her understanding. As a former princess, the area around the Loulan palace was also so quiet.

So, without thinking too much, she and Juan happily walked into the streets.

But what neither of them noticed was that the street behind them was slowly disappearing.

A dark figure emerged from the shadows, forming seals with his hands.

"Illusion: This is not the right technique!"

————————————————————————

Sara and Juan quickly crossed the quiet street.

Sure enough, they saw an ancient gate appear in front of them.

Kunmi happily stood at the door to greet them.

The two sides greeted each other immediately, and Kunmi warmly invited them in.

But Sarah felt something was wrong, but she didn't know what was wrong.

Kunmi and Juan on the side asked with a strange look on their faces.

"how?"

Sarah wanted to express her doubts, but strangely, there seemed to be a voice in her head telling her not to think too much and that she was the one who was distracted.

Sarah thought about it and was convinced by the voice.

"No...nothing..."

Then, everyone started chatting happily.

But the more they talked, the weirder it seemed to Sarah.

For one thing, she felt that the world around her was too quiet, as quiet as a painting. There was only Kunmi's voice, and she couldn't even hear Juan's voice clearly.

Secondly, Kunmi's behavior was too strange. In her impression, Kunmi was a very shy boy who was always silent, but now he was always talking. Moreover, the questions he asked were very strange, all about his mother.

She really felt that something was wrong, but the voice in her head kept convincing her.

Just then, she finally realized something was wrong.

That is, the gifts she and Juan prepared for the visit were missing.

"Eh!?"

Sarah felt even more puzzled now. When she wanted to recall where the gift went, she found that no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't remember how she came here or how she entered the room. It was all like a dream at night.

"Wait! Dream!!!"

This keyword suddenly reminded Sarah of the common knowledge about ninjutsu that she had learned in the Ninja School over the past six months. Her teacher once told her that the feeling of being under an illusion was like a dream.

Sarah suddenly came to her senses.

In other words, I was under an illusion!

why?

Sarah became nervous, but she reacted quickly and the most urgent thing was to break the illusion.

Although ninjutsu and chakra are not taught in the first year of the ninja school, as the daughter of the Jingu, Sarah certainly enjoys some rights to start first. She started learning ninjutsu with her mother since she arrived at the Sand Village.

Sara put her hands together and mobilized the chakra in her body.

"untie!"

In an instant, the scene in Kunmi's house disappeared. Sarah opened her eyes and found herself still standing outside the Sand Clan's residence, in a secluded alley. Beside her, Juan stood there in a daze, looking absent-minded.

Although Sarah was still a little confused, she quickly put her hand on Juan's body.

After the illusion was broken, Juan was obviously unable to react and looked around in confusion.

Sara explained quickly, looking around warily.

"Juan, we just got hit by an illusion!!!"

"!!!"

Juan was startled. She was only eight years old and had never been out of the village. She couldn't understand the seriousness of Sarah's words. But soon, she understood because a low, rapid voice suddenly sounded in the quiet alley.

"What's going on?! How did this little brat break free from the illusion?!"

"I...I don't know either!"

"!!!"

The two girls were startled and looked in the direction of the figure. They saw two burly men standing in the dark corner. Their clothes were obviously not those of the Sand Village, and their skin was exposed.

Juan immediately noticed the forehead protectors on the two men, and their faces were filled with fear.

"It's...it's a ninja from the Hidden Cloud Village!"

"asshole!"

Seeing that their tracks were exposed, the two ninjas looked gloomy.

As jonin, they couldn't figure out how this little girl, who wasn't even a genin, could break the illusion, but they were not slow at all and quickly attacked the two of them.

At this moment, Sarah and Juan's pupils shrank and their bodies were shaking.

Although they didn't understand why the ninjas from the Hidden Cloud Village appeared here and cast illusions on them, they knew one thing: they were in danger. The words "kill and silence" suddenly popped into their minds!

At this moment, a pitch-black iron whip grabbed the two people's waists and pulled them backwards rapidly. At the same time, a small figure passed by them and a familiar voice sounded in their ears.

"Go find someone to help!!!"
