Furthermore, Pakura was no longer young; Rasa, who was the same age as her, already had nearly three children.
She was an older single woman, and such people certainly have strong desires.
Looking at Sasori's appearance again, he was more beautiful than a woman; in the past, a swarm of Sunagakure women would stare at him all day long, lusting after him.
Whether Chiyo and Ebizo believed it or not, the female Ninjas and Sasori's supporters present all believed it.
"Pakura, you actually forced yourself onto Lord Sasori? You are truly despicable."
Pakura gritted her teeth so hard it hurt; she was fuming with rage.
"Sasori, you bastard, how dare you slander me?"
Ryou stood to the side, looking pure and innocent, pretending to be a victim.
But inside his stomach, Sasori was so angry that his regeneration core wouldn't stop trembling; Ryou quickly used Chakra to seal it.
"Uchiha Ryou, you inherently evil Uchiha, do not use such a stupid woman to defame me."
What Sasori cared about wasn't Ryou's slander, but that Ryou was using a fool like Pakura to lower his standards.
To be fair, Pakura wasn't ugly; she could be considered the most beautiful woman in Sunagakure right now, and also the most provocative.
When Ryou saw her, Little Ryou took control of Big Ryou; he really wanted to turn Pakura into a human puppet.
But Sasori was asexual and only saw Pakura's stupidity.
Just how indifferent was he?
He turned himself into a human puppet, and he even cut off his 'little brother' because it was an eyesore.
He was now neither male nor female, neither human nor monster.
Sasori himself didn't know what he was anymore!
One would have to go to the Land of Lightning to confirm Sasori's gender!
In the Land of Lightning, referring to Sasori as 'he' would lead to legal disputes.
One should use—"it!"
The scene was falling apart; Rasa and the elders were a bit dazed.
They wanted to see Pakura and Sasori fight.
Not this kind of melodramatic plot.
Rasa stepped forward and said, "Pakura, don't say things that are detrimental to unity. Now that Sasori has finally returned to the Village, we should give him a warm welcome."
Pakura pointed at Rasa's nose and cursed, "Rasa, stop putting on an act. Lord Third was your teacher."
"He taught you Magnet Release, and now the murderer of Lord Third is right here. Are you going to pretend you don't know anything?"
Rasa clenched his fists in anger. "Pakura, use professional titles during work. Please call me Lord Kazekage."
"Pah!"
Pakura snorted disdainfully.
Although Rasa was very angry, Pakura was right. Since Sasori was a major suspect in the murder of the Third Kazekage, Rasa couldn't just do nothing in front of so many Ninjas.
"Sasori, apologies, but since you are suspected of murdering the previous Kazekage, please take a trip to the Anbu first!"
Several masked Anbu members walked toward Ryou.
Chiyo stepped forward and shouted, "Presumptuous!"
Once in the Anbu, whatever charges were laid would be up to Rasa and the Elder Council.
Even the most innocent person would confess after being hit with a baton.
Chiyo snapped at Rasa and the Elder Council, "Rasa, none of you are good people either. Don't make us tear each other's masks off."
Rasa and the Elder Council members' expressions immediately soured.
They knew Chiyo was using the Pakura matter to threaten them; after all, they had a hand in it too.
The pot shouldn't call the kettle black.
Ryou watched the drama from the side, thoroughly enjoying himself.
"Sasori, your Sunagakure is truly united."
Sasori snorted coldly, "How much better is your Konoha? Don't forget, you're a rogue ninja just like me."
(´;ω;`).
Ryou suddenly stopped laughing.
The Anbu didn't dare step forward. Although Chiyo was old, her prestige remained.
Besides, Rasa and the Elder Council were intimidated, so how could they dare provoke her?
Pakura was a bit confused. Why did a single sentence from Chiyo make Rasa and the Elder Council back down?
Did they have something to do with the Third Kazekage's matter too?
Pakura immediately became furious. No wonder Sunagakure lost to Konoha?
It was all because they were birds of a feather, disrupting supplies while the front lines were fighting, leading to defeat.
"Sasori, you must give me an explanation today!"
Pakura pushed past Chiyo and Ebizo, getting very close to Ryou.
Ryou, transformed into Sasori, wasn't tall. Pakura was taller than Sasori, and with the large green bun on her head, she looked much taller.
Ryou was currently being looked down upon by Pakura. He maintained a disdainful expression, but internally, he was sneakily eyeing Pakura's massive assets.
No wonder Pakura had no brains; it turns out they all grew in that area!
Chiyo and Ebizo surrounded them.
"Pakura, what kind of explanation do you want?"
Pakura snorted, "I want to interrogate you personally!"
Ryou snorted coldly, "This Village is as boring as ever!"
He then turned around and walked toward The Pass.
"You think you can defeat Uchiha Madara with just you insects? Ridiculous!"
"I'm not dealing with you anymore. I believe the other Four Great Ninja Villages would definitely treat me, Sasori of the Red Sand, as an honored guest."
With Sasori of the Red Sand's abilities, other Ninja Villages would certainly treat him well.
Especially during such a unique time.
Chiyo and Ebizo quickly caught up and grabbed Ryou.
"Sasori, Sasori!"
Sasori's supporters loudly denounced Pakura.
"Pakura, what good does it do you to drive Lord Sasori away?"
"I knew it, this woman definitely wants to lure Lord Sasori out and imprison him."
"Pakura, you're too despicable!"
Rasa and the Elder Council pulled Pakura aside.
Rasa said to Pakura, "Pakura, I know you're right, but let's not talk about reason for now. Even if Sasori killed the Third Kazekage, so what?"
Pakura said, "Of course we follow the rules. A life for a life, a debt for a debt. It's only natural."
One of the elders shouted, "Pakura, do you have any brains at all? Can Sasori be killed just like that?"
"Look at the devotion of his supporters and the protection of Grandma Chiyo and Ebizo. Killing him like this would cause the Village to split."
Another elder added, "Yes, and besides, Sunagakure needs Sasori's strength during this period."
"Even if Sasori is guilty, he should go to the battlefield to redeem himself through service."
Pakura said angrily, "Are we just going to let the murderer of Lord Third get away with it?"
Rasa said, "Pakura, I know you're upset, and I am too. These are extraordinary times; as a hero of the Village, you should understand."
"Uchiha Madara requires the combined strength of the entire Ninja World to be countered. Sasori's power is indispensable to Sunagakure, which has just emerged from defeat."
Pakura snorted, "I admit Sasori is strong, but he's not indispensable to Sunagakure. Besides, after wandering for three years, who knows how much strength he still has?"
"..."
Rasa and the Elder Council also really wanted to know.
An elder suggested, "In that case, go and test him. Have a fight, and after that, don't mention the Third Kazekage's matter again."
Pakura nodded; she hadn't sacrificed all her brains to her chest.
Sasori's reputation in the Village was too high; he couldn't be dealt with like an ordinary rogue ninja.
On the other side, Chiyo tried to persuade Ryou, "Sasori, don't lower yourself to Pakura's level. She's not very bright."
"If it weren't for the Uchiha Madara situation this time, she probably would have met her end in the Land of Water."
Ryou nodded, "I'm angry. I want to teach that stupid woman a lesson."
"Fine, fine, as you wish."
Chiyo was full of doting affection for Sasori.
