The Country of Wind, Sand Hidden Village.

In the evening, after a busy day, Chiyo returned home tired.

When she opened the door and smelled the aroma of medicine filling the house, Chiyo knew that her grandson had also returned.

I arrived at Scorpion's laboratory with familiarity and pushed open the door. At this time, Scorpion was concentrating on shaking the medicine in the test tube.

"Are you still busy, Scorpio?"

Seeing that her grandson did not turn around, Chiyo asked in a casual tone.

As Scorpion grows older, and with the complicated education in the Sand Village, the communication between Scorpion and Chiyo becomes increasingly rare.

Especially after his son and daughter-in-law both died on the battlefield many years ago...

Not getting a response, Chiyo turned around silently, prepared to close the door and leave to prepare dinner.

"Ah."

Scorpion's somewhat indifferent voice sounded, interrupting Chiyo's steps.

"Ah? Scorpion...you..."

Chiyo didn't expect that her grandson, who had ignored her in the past, would respond to her today.

Turning around, Scorpion was still busy with his own affairs, as if the response just now did not come from his mouth.

"Is that so? Then are we still going to have dinner at home?"

Chiyo smiled in a relaxed manner.

"..."

After pouring the medicine in the test tube into a special container, Scorpion turned around and looked at Chiyo in front of him with an expressionless face.

After a while, Scorpion tilted his head and curled his lips: "Whatever."

Scorpion hasn't eaten at home for a long time. He spends most of his time around the Third Kazekage.

As the most trusted bodyguard of the Third Kazekage, and now that he is in the hospital, Scorpion is more concerned than ever...

In order to cherish Scorpion's rare opportunities to dine at home, Chiyo specifically ordered his men to get a bunch of rich ingredients and cook a table of dishes.

"How is Fengying's health lately? I heard that he was hospitalized due to anger and often stayed in a daze without eating or drinking."

Chiyo put some of Scorpion's favorite vegetables into his bowl and started looking for topics to talk about.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but I heard that the Third Kazekage was so weak that he would fall down when he walked, and he was as thin as a skeleton.

The Third Kazekage, who suspected that he had been poisoned, had approached Chiyo several times, hoping to get her checked out.

However, after a series of examinations, the conclusion was always that there was no sign of poisoning.

"Well, it's alright."

After swallowing the vegetables and rice, and quickly picking up a few more chopsticks of food, Scorpion nonchalantly answered Chiyo.

"I'm stuffed."

Without waiting for Chiyo to continue asking questions, Scorpion put down his bowl and chopsticks, stood up and walked towards the laboratory.

"I still have tasks to do. If there is nothing more important, please don't bother me."

As one of the top leaders, Chiyo naturally knew that the mission Scorpion mentioned was to protect the Third Kazekage, so she had no doubts.

After all, in the past, Scorpion liked to stay in the laboratory all day tinkering during other tasks.

"I understand. Just come to me if you need anything."

early morning.

As the first ray of sunlight penetrated the clouds and shone onto the earth, the Third Kazekage woke up from his hospital bed, half asleep and half awake.

The silent Scorpion stood beside him and fed him a cup of hot tea with his own hands.

Soon, the Third Kazekage covered his throat and convulsed violently, struggling to fall to the ground from the hospital bed.

At this last moment, his cloudy eyes suddenly became clear, which was rare.

"Cough, cough, cough, why, Scorpion..."

"You, you did...what did you do to me! Cough cough cough."

The Third Kazekage, who was half-kneeling on the ground and curled up, coughing up mouthfuls of black blood from time to time, raised his head in pain and looked at the red-haired boy in front of him with disbelief on his face.

This is a close confidant whom he promoted, and he is also the link between himself and the top leaders of Chiyo's faction.

Now, the young man stood in front of him indifferently, with cold eyes, as if he was looking at a pile of dog shit on the side of the road.

"Why, why..."

"Ah~ah~why do you think this is?"

Hearing the unwilling questioning of the Third Kazekage, Scorpion tilted his head out of habit.

After a moment, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he looked at the "strongest wind shadow" in front of him with an expression as if he were looking at a defense. A cold voice sounded:

"This is the retribution you deserve for being unable to fulfill your duties as the Kazekage."

Although Scorpion's parents were killed by Konoha White Fang, in Scorpion's eyes.

The Third Kazekage, who assigned his parents to lead a surprise attack on Konoha Village during the Second Ninja World War, was also an accomplice.

Moreover, the Sand Village under the rule of this "strongest Kazekage" can be said to have completely disgraced the reputation of the previous Kazekage.

After hearing what Scorpion said, the Sandai Kazekage's face, which had already turned black due to the poisoning, became even darker.

He never thought that Scorpion would poison him for such a reason.

Through the severe pain transmitted through his meridians, the Third Kazekage knew clearly that his life was slipping away bit by bit.

Filled with pain and unwillingness, the Third Kazekage forcibly mobilized the chakra in his body.

"It's useless. Give up struggling. No one can cure my poison."

"Ever since I became your bodyguard, I have been poisoning you."

As iron sand began to flow out of the Third Kazekage's body, Scorpion's tone remained cold and he stepped back slightly to keep a distance.

"Ahem, you're scared..."

After spitting out another mouthful of black blood, the Third Kazekage forced himself to stand up slowly.

Behind him, the iron sand had condensed into a huge cone, which was now floating on the ground.

Looking at the Sandaime Kazekage, Scorpion frowned slightly, then took out the summoning scroll and summoned a human puppet.

As the strongest poison maker in the Sand Village, Scorpion naturally knew how terrible the poison he had given to the Third Kazekage was.

But now the other party could actually stand up and mobilize chakra, which was really unexpected.

"Sand iron..."

The Third Kazekage opened his arms and began to control the sand iron to move towards Scorpion.

then……

"puff--!"

As he spat out a mouthful of black blood mixed with organ fragments, the iron sand that the Third Kazekage had just condensed also scattered again.

At this time, the Third Kazekage was in a very miserable state, his body was twitching and bleeding from all his orifices.

He staggered a few steps, knelt heavily on his knees, lowered his head, and fell silent.

After observing vigilantly for a while, Scorpion controlled the puppet to come in front of the Third Kazekage and touched him with the puppet.

Even so, the Third Kazekage did not react at all.

"Finally dead, huh."

Seeing this, Scorpion let down his guard and muttered to himself.

"Go to hell, ugh!"

Just when he thought that the Third Kazekage had died, the other party's head, which had been lowered, suddenly raised up.

With a roar, a thin needle made of iron sand flew quickly towards the scorpion's head.

Shit!

Thinking to himself that something was wrong, Scorpion quickly dodged.

The thin iron needle flew across the scorpion's cheek and cut a gash.

He touched the wound, and Scorpion still looked calm and composed.

But his slightly rapid breathing proved that his heart was not as calm as he looked.

"Damn shit..."

Cursing inwardly, Scorpion gave up the puppet he had summoned earlier and swung out a chakra line that pierced the Third Kazekage's body.

At this time, the Third Kazekage was completely dead, and could not be deader.

Feeling the life force slipping away from the corpse in front of him and confirming that the other party was really dead this time, Scorpion hurriedly took out the scroll he had prepared long ago and sealed the body of the Third Kazekage inside it.

The human puppet needs to be made while the corpse still has chakra.

He is currently in the Sand Village's hospital, and the doctor will be on duty soon. It is obviously not a wise move to stay here.

After working for a while and cleaning up all the traces at the scene, Scorpion put away the scroll and was about to leave.

Then, as if he thought of something, he stopped and took off the forehead protector.

Without any hesitation, Scorpion slashed it hard with his kunai.

From today on, there will no longer be a Scorpion of the Sand Village.

"Just wait, Konoha White Fang..."

"When I make the Third Kazekage into a human puppet, I will go to Konoha Village to find you."

Having made up his mind secretly, Scorpion turned around and jumped out of the window. Taking advantage of the fact that there were no one outside, he jumped several times and ran into the desert.

As the wind and sand rose, his figure gradually disappeared.
