Sign in and send Uchiha Madara

Ura Gu Ao's figure moved slowly under the light of the torch, making people feel like he was a ghost, wandering around.

Natsuki walked slowly, neither too big nor too small, just enough to follow Uraya and Kakashi.

The three of them moved forward slowly.

On the way forward, there were ninjas one after another staring at this place. Xia Sheng could feel that the ninjas hidden in the darkness were very strong. There were even a few who might be able to compete with Kakashi. Up and down.

"This Sunagakure is really a crouching tiger, hidden dragon." Xia Sheng said to himself.

Finally, they came to a cave.

Here, it is darker than outside, and there are almost only a few scrawled torches, which look like dots of starlight.

"Minister, the Hokage-sama from Konoha wants to see you." Uraya Asubaki said, and Natsuki could hear that there was a slight tremor in Uravani Asubaki's words.

He is afraid, but what is he afraid of?

"Hokage...?" It was Kankuro's voice.

Although Xia Sheng has not heard this voice many times, after all, after watching so many Narutos, Xia Sheng has his own research on each character.

"Whoa!" Suddenly, Xia Sheng felt a strong wind coming from beside him.

It's the face of a man.

Natsuo's Sharingan was almost activated as a stress response, staring at the man in front of him.

He is Kankuro, and his extremely familiar face and conspicuous purple stripes prove his identity.

However, Natsuki saw coldness and rage on Kankuro's face.

"Kankuro, we have met before." Natsuki said slowly.

"Come in." Kankuro said, then blinked again and disappeared from Natsuo's eyes.

Natsuki was relieved to see that Kankuro had not forgotten him.

At least, there is no need to further prove your identity.

"Da da da."

……

A small table, a candle, and some stools.

"You guys sit down, Temari has gone out to perform a mission. I apologize for the poor hospitality." Kankuro said.

After Kankuro sat down, Natsuki could read on his face the sincerity that Kankuro once had on his face, as well as the helplessness and self-blame hidden in it.

No one wants to see Sunagakure like this, let alone Gaara's direct descendant, Kankuro.

"Kankuro, I won't talk nonsense. I know that Sunagakure has been in great turmoil recently, but as your ally, I have an obligation to help you." Natsuki's voice reached Kankuro's ears.

It was obvious that he was slightly surprised after hearing Xia Sheng's words.

The turmoil in Sunagakure began a few months ago.

As for Konoha, it is impossible that he just knew about this situation, and he once had expectations for Konoha.

At least, the covenant they made meant they were obligated to come to help.

But as time passed, he gave up.

Maybe the so-called covenant was just a joke, and Xia Sheng couldn't waste time solving problems that didn't belong to them at all.

"You Konoha, have you finally got some time? It turns out that you still remember that we are your allies." Kankuro's tone was full of yin and yang.

Natsuki admitted that Konoha's handling of this matter was indeed problematic.

However, Xia Sheng also understood that the current situation was not what Konoha wanted to do.

Having more than enough heart but not enough strength may be the most true portrayal of Konoha.

"Kankuro, I'm sorry for Sunagakure and Gaara," Natsuki said.

"Is this your sorry attitude?" Kankuro said.

Xia Sheng sighed and said: "I just returned to Konoha yesterday. I almost lost my life. It's not that Konoha doesn't want to take action. I'm not in Konoha. Konoha has more than enough ambition but not enough power. The shortage of manpower is simply not enough." I can't spare any time, I hope you understand." Xia Sheng said.

Such sincere words would cause a certain amount of turmoil in anyone's heart, let alone Kankuro, who was already exhausted physically and mentally during the war.

"Oh." Kankuro sighed and said nothing more.

Xia Sheng could feel that the other party had already let go.

"Let me talk about the recent situation first. I don't have much time. Within three days, I hope this matter can be resolved." Xia Sheng said.

"Three days? Impossible." Kankuro shook his head, but he still took the trouble to tell Xia Sheng.

"After Gaara died, Temari and I wanted to temporarily stabilize Sunagakure, but it wasn't that simple."

"When Gaara was here, there were a lot of people in Sunagakure who were dissatisfied with him. They were waiting for opportunities to act, like poisonous snakes. But Gaara's departure made them even more rampant."

"Although for the time being, our Sand Branch is the largest branch and has the most personnel, the other branches are all uniting against us. In total, there are four more."

"They are, respectively, the division of water, the division of earth, and the division of fire."

"Almost all their leaders are elite jounin, and many are stronger than me. So, so far, we have no way to get the other branches back."

"Yeah." Xia Sheng nodded, "I probably understand."

"Our long efforts have not made today's situation better. I even think that Sunagakure's situation will last for many years." Kankuro said.

"Is there any way you can bring the leaders of these branches together?" Xia Sheng asked.

"Hmm..." Kankuro seemed to think for a moment, but he was not thinking about the feasibility of this matter, but what it meant to Natsuo.

But in the end, he gave up thinking.

He chose to believe Natsuo, Gaara's friend.

"Tomorrow, there will be a meeting at Sunagakure's headquarters, and all the leaders will arrive." Kankuro said.

Xia Sheng's face immediately flashed with a light of extreme surprise.

"Okay! Then take me there tomorrow!" Xia Sheng said.

Although Kankuro didn't know what Natsuki was going to do, he still nodded.

Now, for him, Xia Sheng is the greatest hope. No matter what the consequences of believing in Xia Sheng are, he must choose to believe it.

Kankuro arranged a place for Natsuki and Kakashi to stay.

Although the conditions are a bit crude, they are quite valuable in today's troubled times.

Clean sleeping conditions have long been a necessity for many people.

The day disappeared slowly like a blink of an eye.

When the sunshine slowly came the next day, Xia Sheng just rubbed his eyes gently.

it's time.

I hope that today, I can fulfill my promise as an ally with Sunagakure.

Xia Sheng was never one to break appointments.
