Chapter 392

"Hmm?"

Scorpion was stunned for a moment, and looked at Chiyo, Yamato and others with a strange look: "You want me to help you rescue Gaara?"

Chiyo nodded: "Yes, little Scorpion, you are also a member of the Sand Village, you should know what the consequences will be without the Kazekage."

Scorpion frowned and hesitated for a moment. He did know this.

If there is no Kazekage in the Sand Village, it may fall into civil strife again, and there is no candidate for the Kazekage in the Sand Village now.

The Sand Village is not Konoha, and the talents are completely incomparable. If there is really a candidate, the Kazekage will not fall on Gaara, who is not yet an adult.

But knowing it is knowing, but he is no longer a member of the Sand Village.

It stands to reason that the House of the Spirits is neutral, and getting close to Konoha is already a bad behavior.

Even if he wants to help, he has to think about his current identity.

"No, I can't help you. After all, I belong to the Elf House now, and every move I make represents the Elf House."

Scorpion shook his head, not daring to look at Chiyo.

Chiyo didn't know how to speak for a while when he heard this. What Scorpion said was indeed the truth. He now represented the Elf House, and every move he made represented the Elf House.

If the Elf House intervened, it might have a bad impact.

What if everyone went to the Elf House for anything in the future? Wouldn't the Elf House agree?

And if he agreed this time, and he didn't agree to other people going to the Elf House in the future, wouldn't he be criticized?

"Mr. Scorpion, you don't need to worry about this. Mr. Xu, the boss of the Konoha Elf House, also agreed to help us, but he plans to help us only when we are in danger."

Yamato approached and answered politely.

Scorpion fell silent again. He was not surprised to hear this.

Instead, he was wondering why Xu Liang would only take action when he was in danger.

After thinking for a while, he still couldn't figure it out, but Xie was sure that nothing would go wrong in this mission.

After all, Xu Liang had said so, there would definitely be no danger in this mission.

And he didn't need to worry about Chiyo, and immediately shook his head again and said: "I still can't help you, but you can rest assured that since the boss has promised you, you can go openly."

Yamato frowned, looked at Xie's serious eyes and sighed, and then didn't say anything more.

He knew that this was the only way, Xie would definitely not go with them.

So he could only give up persuading him and see if Chiyo could persuade Xie later.

But what made Yamato a little confused was that Chiyo didn't say anything more after hearing Xie's answer, and directly stood up and said: "In this case, let's not bother you, we will leave first."

She noticed the change in Xie's expression just now, and she almost understood what it meant.

Since there would be no danger, it didn't matter whether Xie was asked to go with them or not.

So he didn't say anything more, and stood up to leave.

Although Yamato and others were a little puzzled as to why Chiyo didn't persuade them any more, they suppressed their curiosity and followed him out of the office.

Along the way, the group went down the stairs and walked out of the gate of the Elf House.

"Grandma Chiyo, where are we going now? Do we need to find someone?"

When Naruto came outside, he asked Chiyo curiously.

Chiyo shook her head with a smile: "No need to find someone, let's go out now and start our mission."

For Naruto, Chiyo was very kind at this moment, and the smile on her face was from the heart.

After all, the actions in the office just now made Scorpion change a little, and he was still very grateful to Naruto in his heart.

"Ah?"

Naruto was stunned for a moment, and then he became a little excited: "Are we going to Sasuke?"

Chiyo nodded, did not choose to answer, and continued to walk with a few people.

Yamato behind him frowned when he heard this, but did not say anything, and followed Chiyo out of the gate of the Elf House.

The group came to the entrance of the Sand Village again under the leadership of Chiyo, and then quickly rushed in the direction.

Along the way, everyone's eyes became alert. After all, they had already left the Sand Village, and they didn't know if they would encounter any danger along the way.

Of course, there was also someone special in the crowd, that was Naruto. At this moment, Naruto was not alert at all, but a little excited and anxious.

He didn't think about whether he would encounter any danger, but only thought about meeting Sasuke soon. This time he would not let him leave like this, and he must bring him back to Konoha.

Just like that, the groupThe departure of the person did not affect others at all, and he had left the Sand Village without being known by many people.

…

At the same time, in the Elf House of the Sand Village, in the office on the fourth floor where Naruto and others had just stayed.

At this moment, Scorpion was no longer sitting at the desk, but smoking and looking out the window in the direction of the village.

"I hope nothing will happen. Feelings are really a headache."

Muttering to himself, he took a puff silently.

In the two years since he came here, he learned to smoke. Every time Chiyo came here and left, he would quietly light a cigarette, as if he would control himself and not think too much.

I don't know when he developed the habit. Now every time Chiyo left the Elf House, he would consciously get up and come to the window, smoking and watching.

"But what the kid said is indeed right. Should I really change?"

Rubbing the cigarette butt on the ashtray next to the window, Scorpion muttered to himself again.

In his heart, he recalled Naruto's words again, and asked himself uncertainly.

Originally, he had never blamed Chiyo, nor had he hated her, but he just couldn't face it in his heart.

He couldn't face the fact that he abandoned his only relative and left here.

He couldn't face the fact that he abandoned his homeland and the fault of provoking the war.

In fact, he knew all this, and he had always known it, but he just couldn't forgive himself.

He felt that he was no longer worthy of having such people who cared about him, and he was not worthy of being called the person raised by this land.

"It's time to change. I'm so old, how long can I hold on."

His eyes gradually became firm, and the shackles in his heart slowly broke free, and his heart knot slowly untied.

After whispering this sentence, Scorpion's eyes became clear, without the coldness of rejecting people before.

With a slight smile on his lips, he squinted his eyes and felt the wind blowing from the window. Although the wind was a little hot, it made Scorpion feel warm at the moment.
