Chapter 98 Unexpected Guest
At this moment, deep in the mountains and forests in the west of the Fire Kingdom, Scorpion, who had just built his new puppet, was also setting off, looking towards the direction of the Rain Kingdom.
"Maybe I can go there?"
He muttered to himself in confusion.
At this moment, Scorpion has not yet completely transformed himself into a puppet, so many complicated and messy thoughts and emotions often emerge in his biological mind, which makes him very troubled.
"I thought of the past again, all boring memories. The brain made up of cells is really inconvenient.
It seems that the progress of the whole body puppetization needs to be accelerated!"
Scorpion murmured to himself.
Scorpio is undoubtedly a genius, but he is also a lunatic with a strong self-destructive tendency.
More than a year ago, when he went to attack the Third Kazekage, he actually went there with a strong impulse of self-destruction.
That day, the two dolls he had made in the style of his deceased parents broke down, and the long-suppressed emotions burst out at that moment, almost drowning him.
Then, on the same day, he heard ninjas talking about the Third Kazekage outside the window.
One person praised the Third Kazekage as being definitely the strongest Kazekage in the village's history.
But the other person then complained why such a powerful Lord Kazekage finally chose to make peace with Konoha in the last war.
Just a few casual chats drove Scorpion, whose spirit was already on the verge of collapse, completely crazy.
Perhaps those two chatting ninjas would never have thought in their lifetime that their casual remarks in their spare time would lead to the death of the strongest Kazekage in the history of their village.
There is no greater highlight in life than this...
That night, the impulsive Scorpion attacked the Kazekage with the intention of destroying himself.
It’s a pity that fate favored him, but also seemed to have abandoned him.
Afterwards, he hated his talent for the first time in his life.
It’s just like the lyrics of a song: The person I wanted to love couldn’t be loved, and the person I wanted to die couldn’t die.
His talent did not fail him at critical moments.
His sneak attack was successful!
The Third Kazekage, who was known as the strongest in history, died just like that.
Afterwards, Scorpion fled the village and wandered around the border in confusion.
He couldn't find his direction or where to go.
His betrayal of the village was merely a result of a momentary impulse and emotional breakdown. He took the blame for his parents' deaths out on Fengying, who had lost the war.
But deep down in his heart, he still has feelings for the village.
In the original work, when Mirai captured Shukaku, the One-Tail, he chose to stay alone at the entrance of the village at the last moment, and only allowed Deidara to enter the village to capture Gaara.
Later, in the fight with Chiyo Sakura, he let her win several times, which showed his feelings for the Sand Village.
Scorpio regretted the momentary impulse that made him homeless.
Although he blamed all of this on the backward emotional response mechanism of the biological human brain.
After the Third Ninja World War broke out, he kept wandering around the battlefield.
He knew it was risky, but he enjoyed it.
He would even deliberately take out his most proud work when killing Konoha ninjas: a human puppet made from the corpse of the Third Kazekage!
(Scorpion and the Third Kazekage puppet)
Just like a gambler with a strong tendency towards self-destruction, he bets everything he has without hesitation every time he sits at the table!
But his talent never failed him.
He is too strong.
He is so strong that no Konoha ninja who has seen him has been able to pass on the information alive.
So even after a year, the Konoha ninjas on the front lines still knew nothing about his existence.
After setting off that day, Scorpion soon encountered a team of Konoha ninjas who were patrolling the battlefield.
He released the human puppets of the Third Kazekage without hesitation and buried them all in a few moves.
But afterwards he did not show any joy, instead he kicked the puppet hard.
"Waste! Such a bunch of weaklings actually forced you to kneel down and beg for peace while they were still alive?! You wimp! You are the strongest Kazekage in history? Trash! Trash! Useless! Why wasn't it you who died in the war?!"
After venting his anger, Scorpion covered his face and laughed wildly.
Until he was completely tired, he felt endless emptiness again.
"I really need to speed up the process of turning my whole body into a puppet. I have more and more useless emotions in my head recently.
The human brain is such a burden."
He believed that as long as he completed the puppet transformation of his body, he would be able to get rid of these useless emotions and regain stable and normal emotions.
He then quickened his pace towards the Rain Kingdom, while still not forgetting to taunt the puppets around him.
Even though the puppet had long lost consciousness.
"A small country like the Land of Rain now dares to declare war on Konoha, but you, the strongest Kazekage of all time, only admit defeat and humbly beg for mercy from Konoha. You are a piece of trash!"
Scorpion at this time is far less emotionally stable than in the original book.
He knew he was sick.
But the only cure he could think of was to abandon his existing brain.
So there is a reason why he seems to be emotionally stable in the original work, but in fact he can get along well with a group of perverts and psychopaths in the Akatsuki organization.
He is the most senior psychopath among them.
Now, just like in the original story, he took the initiative to choose to go to the Akatsuki organization at this time when the organization is reborn.
Affected by the butterfly effect of Shiba Kiyokawa, he set off even earlier.
But he would never have thought that the Rain Kingdom might be more lively than he expected.
A day later, somewhat to Shiba Kiyokawa's surprise, Terai compromised quickly.
Just when Shiba Qinghe was still worried whether this boy might have some hidden intentions, the other party's anxious pleading voice was heard.
"Godfather, please, save my sister! She is in danger! I will do anything if you save her!"
Only then did Shiba Kiyokawa realize that Yakushi Nono was already on his way, but there were a few pursuers behind him.
"Who is chasing her?" Shiba Kiyokawa asked immediately.
“I’m not sure. Our spiritual beasts can’t convey such complex information, and they don’t know those people.
But it should be very strong, my sister can't fight it at all, she is in great danger now, please save her!"
At this moment Terai dropped everything, knelt in front of Shiba Kiyokawa and begged at the top of his lungs.
Such feelings also moved Shiba Kiyokawa slightly.
He thought about it and decided to take a risk.
He instructed Kakuzu who was following behind him, "Plant the Earth Grudge in his body. If he shows any abnormality, take his heart immediately. You should be able to do this, right?"
Kakuzu nodded silently.
After receiving a positive answer, Shiba Kiyokawa released all the restrictions in the dungeon.
"Let's go."
Terai was still a little stunned, "Where are we going?"
"Take you out. Didn't you say you were going to save your sister?"
Terai took a tentative step out of the cell and found that he was no longer subject to any restrictions. Only then did he become convinced that this was true.
His biggest hope was to have Akatsuki accept Yakushi Nono.
But I didn't expect the surprise to come so suddenly.
"Godfather, go this way. The news about the spirit beasts came from this direction!"
This time, he called his foster father with rare sincerity, without a trace of reluctance.
But then, they met an unexpected guest on the road.
