After taking over the snake uncle's foundation, Sasuke came to surrender on his own initiative.

"Kill them!"

As Karin's emotionless voice sounded, a look of struggle suddenly appeared on Haku's face. "These Grass Ninjas didn't provoke..."

"I said... kill them!" Karin's eyes became even colder, staring at Bai without blinking, and said coldly, "To me, any Grass Ninja is an enemy. I will never forget how they abused me and my mother!"

Hearing this, Bai lowered his head and fell silent.

At this moment, the eyes of several Grass Ninjas in the encirclement suddenly changed when they looked at Karin.

The three of them looked at each other, then at her red hair, their eyes suddenly becoming suspicious. "This kid... could he be the Uzumaki clan member who suddenly disappeared from the village a few years ago?"

"Although the eyes don't match, the hair color is definitely from that clan. I was wondering why this kid looks a little familiar..."

"How did these mobile blood bags get to the Sound Village?"

"I don't know, but I have to tell the leader about this when I get back. Any of the talented ninjas in that clan is much more useful than the so-called medical ninjas. The key is that they are free..."

The Kusagakure ninjas stood back to back, their heads close together and whispered to each other. But the Kusagakure ninja who was facing Bai didn't notice that the look of this boy who looked more feminine than a woman had subtly changed when he looked at them.

"If that's the case... then Karin's enemies are the enemies of Otogakure..."

Thinking of this, the pity in Bai's eyes quickly disappeared, and he formed seals with his hands with a solemn expression.

"Ice Release - Exploding Ice Crystals!"

Bai pushed out with both palms, and the palms were quickly covered with a layer of cold white frost. Then a large number of translucent ice crystals shot out from his palms, launching a 360-degree attack on the Grass Ninja team opposite.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

There were dense and numerous sounds of breaking through the air, and a chilling ice-blue light flashed by. Soon the ground was filled with frost-colored thousands of swords. The three Grass Ninjas were pierced by countless ice needles, like hedgehogs.

As blood flowed out of their bodies, it quickly dyed the light blue ice needles on their bodies red. On the frosted ground, three blood-red human-shaped ice sculptures soon appeared.

Even though someone had been killed, the atmosphere became even more awkward.

"Ahem...your ice escape technique is getting stronger and stronger, Bai." Sakura coughed dryly, breaking the awkward atmosphere. He stepped forward, dressed in a white robe. "By the way, these ice escape techniques should have been developed by you, right?"

Bai glanced at the expressionless Karin, then forced a smile at Sakura, "You guessed right, there's nothing I can do, because I don't have the ninjutsu inheritance of Mizunotsuki."

"Then..." Hesitantly, Bai turned his head and looked at the three "hedgehog" ice sculptures standing on the ground, "Do we still need to take their mission scrolls with us?"

At this moment, Karin, who had been silent for a while, suddenly jumped up and landed next to the two of them.

She rolled her eyes at Bai, "You shot all of it into a hornet's nest. Are you going to take it to Konoha as evidence of our murder? Clean up the scene first, make it more tidy."

"Oh..." Bai pouted a little aggrieved. He suppressed his reluctance and helped Karin to get revenge, but he still couldn't get a smile from the girl...

Seeing this, Sakura hurriedly comforted Bai and said softly, "Well, well, Bai, don't mind it. Karin is just that straightforward. You'll understand once you get to know her. Don't you see that she and I quarrel every day?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Karin said sarcastically, "Oh... you look really kind-hearted with a broad forehead. So you prefer mature and gentle men like Shiro?"

Sakura's forehead veins suddenly jumped, and she turned around and shouted angrily, "What are you talking about, you bastard glasses girl!"

Karin was unmoved, she just curled her lips with disdain, "Unlike a flower-crazy like you, the one I like will always be Ototake-sama."

Then, she looked at Bai, who had a somewhat shocked expression, and teased, "You better be careful, a woman like Sakura is not someone you can control!"

Shiro blushed, and quickly avoided Karin's teasing gaze, stammering, "No... No... What are you talking about..."

how is this possible? ? ?

He doesn’t like a girl like Sakura who is two-faced!!!

......

On the other side of the Forest of Death, Kimimaro finally waited for the person he wanted to meet.

Gaara was walking in front of the forest carrying a large gourd on his back, followed by his brother Kankuro and sister Temari ten meters behind him.

Within a two-kilometer radius centered on Gaara, in the dark mid-air where no one can see, there is an 'Eye of Sand' connected to Gaara's optic nerve in the four directions of front, back, left, and right.

The three of them hurried on their way in silence, at a distance from each other. They felt more like teammates who had just met, and there was no feeling of family at all.

suddenly!

Gaara, who was walking in front, paused, narrowed his eyes slightly, and seemed to see something through his third eye.

Temari and Kankuro behind them looked at each other, both confused, but in order to avoid doing anything out of line and angering the irritable Gaara, they stopped and didn't even ask why.

Whatever Gaara does, he naturally has his reasons.

"This direction... is the central tower... is it heading for the quest scroll in my hand?" Gaara in front frowned slightly, a little confused.

But when he controlled the Eye of Sand to lower its head and saw the appearance of the white figure clearly, his pupils suddenly shrank.

Gaara followed the rapidly approaching white figure, and his eyes gradually became irritable. He suddenly realized that the other party was coming for him!

But soon, Gaara began to murmur in suppressed excitement.

"You're finally here... Kimimaro..."
