In the Sand Village, the sound of hurried footsteps broke the tranquility of the night.

Outside the acting Kazekage's office, a voice came: "Elder Chiyo, we have found Master Scorpion's trail!"

When Grandma Chiyo heard this, she rushed out of the office, her face full of anxiety and concern. "Where is he? Where is my grandson now?" she asked anxiously.

"Our people found Young Master Scorpion at the border of Bird Kingdom and Rain Kingdom. However, when we found him, Young Master Scorpion seemed to be in a coma. Now we have successfully escorted him back to his room, and he has woken up." The visitor reported truthfully.

"Hurry, take me to see him!" Grandma Chiyo said anxiously, "Where has this child been for so many days? Why is he in a coma?" Although in front of outsiders, Chiyo has always been a very tough and unkind elder, but in her heart, she has always loved her grandson Scorpion very much, and Scorpion has been her only sustenance and hope over the years.

Under the guidance of the visitor, Grandma Chiyo finally arrived at Scorpion's room and met Scorpion.

She walked forward, gently stroked the scorpion's head, and said with tears in her eyes: "Child, where have you been all this time? Do you know how worried we were when you were away?"

Scorpion looked at Grandma Chiyo with a hint of apology in his eyes: "Grandma, I was sleeping soundly that night, and suddenly I felt someone had taken me away. I don't know how long it had been, but when I woke up again, I was already in a strange place. Then I asked for directions and looked for food along the way. Until a few days ago, because I had been walking in the mountains for a long time, I didn't find any food to fill my stomach and I passed out."

Granny Chiyo stroked Scorpion's head lovingly and comforted him softly, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back. You should have a good rest first, and we'll talk about other things tomorrow."

After Granny Chiyo left Scorpion's room, Ebizo followed and asked curiously, "Sister, do you think this is a scorpion?"

Granny Chiyo nodded, a solemn expression on her face: "Although I didn't find any traces of transformation, I didn't detect any traces of transformation when the kid from Konoha turned into White Fang. This shows that Konoha has developed a new transformation technique that can deceive the eyes of most people nowadays. Tomorrow, after he has rested well, I will find an opportunity to teach him to practice puppetry. Scorpion's puppetry technique is a unique puppet control method inherited from me, and no one else can imitate it."

When Ebizo heard what Grandma Chiyo said, he nodded in agreement.

The "Scorpion" at this time is actually the one transformed by Liu Sheng Po Xiao using the Natural Phantom. He asked Tianming in his mind: "Tianming, after using the Natural Phantom to transform into a Scorpion, can I really use puppetry?"

Tianming's voice sounded in his mind: "Don't worry, Tiansheng Meiying can perfectly imitate Scorpion, and can even imitate some of Scorpion's basic puppetry operations, but when it comes to the use of those puppetry techniques, there is no way."

Poxiao looked at the puppets in the room and thought to himself, "I have a feeling that Grandma Chiyo will come to test my puppetry tomorrow. I must be prepared in advance."

The next morning, Grandma Chiyo came to Scorpion's room and called softly, "Child, are you awake? Grandma is coming in."

After entering the room, she saw several puppets lying on the ground, and "Scorpion" had just climbed out of the bed, rubbing his eyes sleepily.

He explained to Grandma Chiyo: "Grandma, I couldn't sleep last night, so I practiced the puppetry you taught me before."

Hearing this, Granny Chiyo smiled with satisfaction: "It seems that Scorpion is indeed hardworking. Then I will come to check whether your puppetry skills have become rusty after not practicing for so many days."

Then, chakra threads emerged from Scorpion's fingertips and quickly connected to the puppets on the ground. Instantly, these originally motionless puppets seemed to be given life, and as Scorpion's fingers flicked, they displayed various exquisite movements.

When Grandma Chiyo saw this scene, all her doubts finally dissipated. This method was the puppet control method she created herself. The person in front of her must be her grandson Scorpion.

"Not bad, not bad!" Grandma Chiyo praised, "I didn't expect that you've not practiced puppetry for such a long time, but you're still so skilled. Grandma decided to give you a reward."

After a moment of contemplation, she said, "Grandma will take you to our Sand Village's storehouse. There are many items confiscated from enemy ninjas by our ancestors. If you like anything, just take it away."

"Scorpion" nodded happily and followed Grandma Chiyo to the storeroom. When the guard at the door saw Elder Chiyo, he immediately saluted respectfully: "Greetings, Elder Chiyo!"

Granny Chiyo waved her hand to indicate that it was okay, and then said to Scorpion, "Just pick out what you like. No matter what you choose, Grandma's contribution points are enough to exchange for it."

"Scorpion" walked into the warehouse, his eyes wandering among the dazzling array of ninja tools and ninjutsu scrolls.

At this time, the guard at the door suddenly came to report: "Elder Chiyo, Konoha's Orochimaru has led his men into the Land of Sand, and the frontline ninjas are unable to stop him."

Granny Chiyo frowned, "Who else besides Orochimaru?"

The guard replied, "There is also a black-haired boy standing next to him."

Granny Chiyo nodded to show that she understood, then turned to Scorpion and said, "Scorpion, have you made your choice? Grandma may have to go to the front line for something."

Scorpion said, "Not yet, grandma. If you have something to do, please bring me here to choose another day."

Grandma Chiyo waved her hand and said, "That's not necessary. Let me talk to the guards, and when you've made your selection, just give it to them for registration. Grandma, go to the front line first."

Afterwards, Chiyo came out and gave a few words to the guards, then rushed to the front line. The guards also said to Scorpion inside, "Master Scorpion, Elder Chiyo has already told us, you can choose whatever you want inside, we won't bother you."

After saying that, the guard also retreated. Now in the Sand Village warehouse, only Scorpion was left and began his selection journey alone.

Poxiao looked at the scene in front of him and was secretly proud of himself: "It turned out to be so smooth? Did I underestimate my plan or did I underestimate Chiyo's love for her grandson?"

Tianming also said in his mind: "It is said that the generations apart are close, and Chiyo lost her son and daughter-in-law during World War II. Now Scorpion is her only hope."

Poxiao also sighed: "I don't know why, although I am in the enemy camp with Chiyo, I feel that I have a deep sense of guilt for using Chiyo's love for Scorpion to achieve my goal... By the way, Tianming, do you have a storage space?"

Tianming looked at Poxiao helplessly: "I do have storage space, but didn't you just say that you would feel guilty for doing this?"

Dawn said: "I'm talking about the guilt of taking advantage of Chiyo's feelings for Scorpion. What does it have to do with me taking these things? These things were also looted from the Sand Village anyway, and most of them can't be used by them, so it's a waste to keep them here."

Tianming: “…………”

During the raid, Dawn found his father's sword, which was different from the traditional samurai sword. It looked more like a precious sword from China.

When Dawn touched the sword, a familiar yet strange feeling came from the sword, as if the sword had some indescribable connection with him.
