Chapter 123 Precisely Avoiding Landmines
Rewind a few minutes, when the three members of Akatsuki went with Yekura to meet the Queen of Loulan, Shiba Kiyokawa's questions were no less than Hyuga Hanabi's.
Because in his memory, he clearly remembered that the Queen of Loulan should have died long ago by this time.
In the movie he remembered, the Queen of Loulan died right at the beginning, which, if you calculate the timeline, should have been around the time the Second Shinobi World War ended.
But they are still alive and well.
She doesn't even know if it's because of the protection of the dragon vein, but her complexion and skin are well-maintained, and she still looks charming.
The villainous big boss who appears throughout the entire movie, the traitorous cyborg known as An Lushan, simply disappeared without a trace.
At that time, Shiba Kiyokawa realized that something was wrong.
At first, he didn't think much of it, assuming it was just another butterfly effect caused by his time travel.
Moreover, his emotional intelligence is much higher than that of the people in Konoha. No matter how surprised he was, he wouldn't ask the queen directly, "How come you're still alive?"
Meanwhile, the Queen of Loulan was very polite when she met Yecang, saying that the previous conflict was all a misunderstanding and that Loulan had no intention of being enemies with Sunagakure. This made everyone subconsciously think that the trip would not be too bumpy.
However, when asked who the ninja who fought Rasa in the desert a few days ago was, the Queen of Loulan hesitated for a moment and could not give a clear answer for a long time.
This made Yekura even more suspicious, convinced that this was all a staged performance by Rasa.
"Your Majesty, do Konoha ninjas actually exist? Can't you tell us the truth even now?"
"Lord Kazekage, please believe me. I really didn't mean to deceive you. It's just that this matter is too bizarre, and I don't know how to explain it to you so that you will believe me."
Ye Cang scoffed, "How bizarre could it be?"
Then, Xiao Nan noticed a falling figure outside the window and instinctively flew out to save the person.
When I returned, the whole truth finally became clear!
For a fleeting moment, Shiba Kiyokawa had to admit: This is really, really bizarre!
He looked at the group of four opposite the tower with a serious expression, silently complaining to himself.
Where did this come from?
Is this still the Loulan from the theatrical version?
The traitorous centipede has completely disappeared, replaced by four transmigrators, each more formidable than the last!
Sasuke, Hanabi Hyuga, Gaara, and Boruto Uzumaki!
With this lineup, are you guys teaming up to capture the Otsutsuki?
Ye Cang, standing beside him, was so shocked that his mouth gaped open, and he was speechless for a long time.
"Wow... there really are Konoha ninjas who have sneaked into the desert?" That was the only thought in her mind at that moment.
Because both Hyuga Hanabi's Byakugan and young Sasuke's exposed Sharingan are very distinctive Konoha features, they cannot be concealed even without their headbands.
Not to mention Boruto is also wearing the Konoha headband on his forehead.
Looking at it this way, Gaara became the most eye-catching person in the crowd.
Among the group of ninjas who were clearly from Konoha, only his demeanor and the few wisps of sand drifting around him seemed out of place.
Yekura immediately fixed her gaze on Gaara, staring at the gourd behind him and the silk-like sand belt that surrounded him.
"Red-haired one, you're a Sunagakure ninja, right? So you're the one who brought this group of Konoha ninja into the desert?"
It's obvious that Yekura misunderstood.
That's not surprising. Who in their right mind would immediately think of time travel?
In comparison, the explanation that someone from one's own village acted as a guide seems much more reasonable.
Gaara instinctively wanted to deny it, but Sasuke subtly tugged at his sleeve and shook his head slightly.
Their guiding principle is to avoid interfering with the past and destroying history as much as possible.
Given their current predicament, Sasuke clearly doesn't want to expose their true identities directly.
But this immediately made Ai Luo feel extremely distressed.
How should I explain that?
The woman across from me has a murderous look in her eyes!
"Yes, but, well, I can explain! These Konoha ninjas are my friends. They meant no harm. It was just a misunderstanding."
Ye Cang stepped forward and had already formed hand seals to summon his signature fireball.
The voice grew increasingly cold, devoid of any warmth.
"Misunderstanding? If bringing Konoha ninjas into the heart of the desert is considered a misunderstanding, then what constitutes a crime?"
Are you going to lead them into Sunagakure in a few days, unleash the Tailed Beasts, and blow up the entire village?!
To be fair, Gaara actually did release a tailed beast to blow up a village when he was a kid...
Although he did it unconsciously.
It's hard to say whether this was a belated boomerang that struck him.
Gaara's expression immediately turned even more bitter.
Only now did they realize how troublesome the era they had traveled back to was.
The war outside is still raging!
If their actions cannot be explained, let alone finding Urashiki Otsutsuki, they themselves will first become enemies of the ninja world.
Seeing that Gaara was really struggling to cope, Hyuga Hanabi whispered some advice to him.
"Just try to smooth things over with someone you know to dispel her doubts. I remember the Feng Ying of this era is your father, isn't he?"
Gaara suddenly remembered that he was a second-generation rich kid.
Sasuke, who was standing to the side, actually wanted to say something to remind him.
He was the one who had a brief encounter with Luo Sha in the desert not long ago, and he felt that the other party's attire and situation seemed a bit off.
But the next moment, Gaara spoke.
"Don't misunderstand, I absolutely did not betray the village! I can go back with you to see the Wind Shadow, and then everything will be clear."
Ye Cang suddenly fell silent.
Sasuke and Hanabi, who were standing nearby, assumed that the explanation had been successful and even showed some relief.
Only Shiba Kiyokawa, who saw through everything, sighed silently from the sidelines.
This is probably not going to end well.
After a long silence, Ye Cang spoke again in a chilling tone, asking, "The 'Wind Shadow' you mentioned, you wouldn't be referring to Rasa, would you?"
Gaara nodded with a complicated expression, "Yes."
His relationship with Luo Sha as father and son had never been good, but seeing that there was really no other way at the moment, he had no choice but to swallow his pride and go see his father.
But what he didn't know was that if he had simply said that his greatest ambition was to kill Luo Sha with his own hands, it would have been a better answer than what he was giving now.
Shiba Kiyokazu, who witnessed the whole thing, commented: "He made a perfect mistake!"
From the perspective of simply provoking Yekura, not a single answer is superfluous.
The next moment, Ye Cang, enraged, did not hesitate to activate Fire Release first!
"Now, I am the Kazekage! Die, traitor!"
Shiba Kiyokazu sighed silently to the side.
Chaos has begun again.
He had left the Land of Rain twice in a short period of time, and both times unexpected events occurred.
I don't know if it's because I didn't check the Chinese calendar before going out.
