Konoha: Otsutsuki from the Earth

In Sand Hidden Village, Qi Fei was on the roof of the hospital telling Kakashi about the previous battle with Scorpion.

"Really? I didn't expect Scorpion to be such a troublesome existence. Fortunately, you are here, otherwise Sakura and the others would be no match for Scorpion alone."

When Kakashi heard the information about Scorpion that Qi Fei told him, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

If it weren't for Qi Fei, how could he have defeated Scorpion at such a small cost and captured Scorpion alive. In contrast, Kakashi and the others couldn't even stop a member of the Akatsuki organization with so many people.

Qi Fei turned the scroll in his hand and said, "Fortunately, I was just for his puppets. These can keep me entertained for a long time."

Kakashi was also deeply puzzled by this, because he didn't know when Qi Fei learned the puppet technique of Sunagakure Village.

But seeing that Qi Fei was unwilling to say more, he had no choice but to put away his curiosity.

Yesterday, the unconscious Gaara was finally carried back to Sunagakure Village by Naruto, because Naruto did not want Scorpion, the puppet who almost killed Gaara, to carry Gaara.

What was gratifying was that after learning that Gaara was safe and sound, all the villagers of Sunagakure Village spontaneously came out to greet him. Seeing Gaara so recognized by the villagers, Naruto was really moved.

Today, Gaara, who has woken up, is chatting with Naruto in the ward. Naruto is also very curious about Gaara, whom he has not seen for a long time, and keeps asking him how he got the approval of the villagers and how he became the Kazekage.

After finishing the conversation with Kakashi, Qi Fei came to the ward.

Seeing that Naruto and Gaara were still chatting, he sat aside silently and began to carefully examine Qi Scorpion's body puppet.

[As expected of a puppet master, it is an extremely exquisite and reasonable application.]

Qi Fei dismantled it a little and found that the entire puppet was equipped with countless mechanisms and weapons, making full use of the entire internal space of the puppet.

If he hadn't had the Byakugan to be able to see through things, he would never have guessed that there were weapons embedded in the puppet's skin.

Moreover, the entire puppet is coated with poison. Even if a normal person picks up the puppet and touches it with his hands, he will be poisoned and die without knowing it.

[Think about it, Scorpion doesn’t need to come into direct contact with the puppet, and it will have no effect on him at all if it is coated with poison.]

Just when Qi Fei cut Xie's puppet into pieces, Tiantian came over and asked, "Is this the puppet from Sand Hidden Village? A new toy?"

"Hmm... wait! Don't touch it, it's highly poisonous."

Qi Fei quickly stopped Tiantian's attempt to use a puppet arm to check.

"It's so dangerous, why are you so happy watching it?"

Tiantian sat beside Qi Fei helplessly, watching him tinker with the puppet parts.

If it weren't for his reminder, who would have thought that those parts scattered on the ground could be so dangerous.

"Isn't it highly poisonous? Why do you seem to be completely fine?"

"It is highly poisonous to others, but it is ineffective on me." Qi Fei continued to piece together the parts of the puppet.

"Is it so fun?" Tiantian watched him flexibly put the dismantled puppets back together piece by piece, feeling a little curious.

Qi Fei pondered for a moment and explained: "For me, it's like putting together a jigsaw puzzle. Putting together seemingly unrelated parts into a perfect individual is definitely a very fulfilling thing. I'll collect it from you.

It’s like a rare kunai.”

While Tiantian and Qi Fei were chatting, Chiyo and Sakura walked up to Qi Fei together, and Chiyo was holding a translucent nutrient jar in her hand.

Sakura was the first to speak: "Brother, we need to set off back to the village immediately."

It turns out that after Chiyo had some communication with Scorpion's core through the puppet technique, he learned that Scorpion had an undercover subordinate next to Orochimaru, and decided to meet near the Tenchi Bridge after Nine Days.

Chiyo knew that Sakura was very interested in the news about Orochimaru, so he informed Sakura about it.

After learning the news about Orochimaru, Sakura was ready to hurried back to the village. After Kakashi's permission, Sakura began to notify others. Now only Qi Fei and Naruto in the ward were left who had not received the notification.

.

"The core of the scorpion is returned to you. Thank you for fulfilling some of my old bones' wishes." Chiyo very politely handed the nutrient tank soaked in the core of the body to Qi Fei.

She had never thought about detaining Scorpion's core. Considering Qi Fei's strength, no one in the village should be his opponent. In a real fight, the entire Sand Hidden Village might be destroyed.

Qi Fei stood up and sealed the parts into the scroll, clapped his hands and said, "Let's go, there's nothing to do if we stay here anyway."

"Huh~" Tiantian also stood up and stretched, "I'm finally going back, and I must soak in the hot springs this time!"

"You are still thinking about it..."

Soon after, a total of seven people, including Kakashi Ban and Kai Ban, gathered at the entrance of Sunagakure Village.

In the team, Naruto looked at his palms thoughtfully.

"Very good~ Let's rush back to the village in two days!" Kai shouted.

"No! I can use it for one day!" Xiao Li said confidently, "And I won't lose again!"

Looking at Xiao Li and Kai, Tiantian said helplessly: "Here we go again, you really didn't learn your lesson."

"Senior brother, do you usually train like this?" Sakura asked curiously.

She felt that only monsters like Qi Fei could survive in such a strange class.

But then I thought about it, Tiantian, who is also a girl, is really pitiful. I really don’t know how she persists until now.

"Really~ They are always like this, no matter how much I try to persuade them, they won't listen." Tiantian said, spreading his hands.

In the end, Kai and Xiao Li succeeded. Because Kai decided to have a formal competition with Kakashi. The content of the competition was: who could lead his class to the gate of Konoha Village first.

Although he has always found it troublesome, Kakashi really won't refuse Gai's challenge.

Ever since, Kai and Kakashi led their respective class members to run wildly on the desert, speeding along the way.

After two days and two nights of crazy trekking through the endless desert and the lush forest, Qi Fei and the others finally saw the familiar door frame of Konoha Village.

"I didn't expect...Naruto and the others could persist until now..." Tiantian said to Qi Fei beside him, somewhat out of breath.

After all, Kaiban is a class specialized in physical arts, so it is very normal to be able to run like this day and night.

But it's incredible that Sakura and Naruto can persevere like them until now.

Glancing at Sakura and Naruto who were reluctantly following behind, Qi Fei replied: "It's hard to say about the others. They are normal. After all, they have been training very hard for Sasuke in the past two years to become stronger."

"Sasuke..." Tiantian also knew about Sasuke's "rebellion" from the village, and it seemed that this time he had to return to the village urgently because of the news about Sasuke, "I hope it goes well."

Qi Fei glanced at the nutrition tank in his hand and said, "It's probably difficult."
