In the depths of the desert, stands an abandoned building complex.

Those buildings are very distinctive, long and slender, like towers standing in rows, forming a unique landscape in the endless and monotonous desert.

This is the ruins of the ancient country of Loulan.

This country once prospered because of the dragon veins buried in the ground. At one time, the population increased sharply and it was prosperous. But it also attracted the attention of the great powers, was entered by the army of the country of wind, and quickly perished.

Today's Loulan, only the eternal desolation and loneliness.

Above the sky, after Kun probed into the clouds, he did not fully appear, but slowly opened his abyss-like mouth.

A figure came out of its mouth, and it was the ghost shark who separated a new shadow clone.

The next second, his clone flew towards the Loulan ruins below, while his main body, Kun, returned to the sea of ​​clouds.

The ghost shark's plan is very simple, that is, use the clone to enter the Loulan ruins, find the dragon vein and open its seal, and finally let the shark come down and absorb the power of the dragon vein on the spot.

Thirty kilometers, twenty kilometers, ten kilometers...

The ghost shark is getting closer and closer to the ground. During this process, he rolled his eyes, and he could see that there was an incredible energy flow a hundred meters below Loulan, like a dazzling sun, emitting a dazzling light, making it difficult for him to see for a long time.

That is the dragon vein, which contains almost infinite chakra, powerful enough to distort time and space.

However, the ghost shark soon discovered that he was not the only one who was interested in this dragon vein.

It seems to be very lively down there.

Outside the ruins of Loulan, a ninja army of dozens of people set up a tent and stationed here.

Ghost sharks are secretly watching.

Although none of these people wore ninja uniforms or forehead guards, the ghost shark still saw that they were ninjas from Sandyin Village.

Because, in the crowd, he saw a woman with short sandy yellow hair, with a big belly, holding a little girl and a little boy with both hands.

That woman was the wife of the deceased four generations of Kazura Kazura, Kazura.

The two-year-old girl and one-year-old boy beside her were her eldest daughter Temari and her son Kankuro. As for what she was carrying in her stomach, it was naturally the youngest son Gaara.

It seems that when Nagato leveled Shayin and slaughtered the villagers of Shayin, a small number of survivors still escaped and kept the last fire for Shayin Village.

In the camp, except for Kagura, most of the other sandy ninjas were very busy. They kept going in and out of the Loulan ruins, as if they were looking for something.

"Karuru-sama."

At this time, a young ninja with a bandaged head and a red mark on his right face walked out of the ruins, came to Kaura, and bowed to her.

"It's Maki, how is the situation inside?" Kaura asked with a kind smile and caring.

Maki, although he has just turned eighteen years old, has long been promoted to Shangnin due to his outstanding performance on the battlefield. The most important thing is that he is loyal to the four generations of Fengying.

So, when Nagato invaded Sandyin Village, Maki was tasked with protecting Kazekage's widow and children.

In the past six months, the group has been wandering in the Land of Wind, avoiding countless tracking and killing along the way, and finally successfully escaped into the depths of the desert and found the Loulan ruins.

Maki and others came here, on the one hand, to find a safe refuge, but more importantly, to find the legendary dragon vein.

Then, use its power to take revenge on Nagato and Aminotsu Village!

Faced with Kaluru's question, Maki's face darkened, and he replied with some self-reproach: "My lord, I'm sorry, but I still got nothing today."

"It's okay, Markey."

Hearing this, Kaura patiently comforted his subordinates, "Actually, even if you find the dragon vein, I'm afraid there is no way to open it. I heard that only the Queen of Loulan can unlock the seal of the dragon vein and release its power, but now Where are you going to find the Queen?"

Her implication was to persuade Markey to give up.

After all, from the very beginning, finding the dragon veins was the idea of ​​Maki and others. As a woman who has lost her husband and a mother of three children, Kagura's only wish is to give birth to her little son safely, and she doesn't want any extravagance.

What Kaura didn't expect was that.

"My lord, according to the latest information we have obtained from our investigation, the last queen of Loulan is called Sarah. Not only did she not die in the war, but she is likely to have been hiding in the ruins. Our people have already searched the ruins. In some places, I believe she will be found soon."

Maki said with burning eyes, showing a firm determination.

Oh?

These words were heard by the ghost shark hiding in the dark, which made him raise his eyebrows.

Without making any noise, he quietly bypassed the Shayin camp and sneaked into the Loulan ruins in secret.

Half an hour later, deep in the ruins.

The ghost shark came here alone, the leather shoes stepped on the ground, and the crisp footsteps echoed in the empty street.

Although the buildings on both sides of the street are dilapidated, it can still be vaguely seen that they used to be resplendent. The former Loulan, at the peak of its development, was no less prosperous than Muye Village.

The ghost shark seemed to walk forward aimlessly, but in fact, he had already sensed an unfamiliar chakra wandering around here.

The owner of that chakra seems to have discovered the arrival of the ghost shark, and has been monitoring him in the dark, playing a game of peekaboo with him.

Click.

Suddenly, a crisp sound came from the corner of the street, and it sounded like someone stepped on the dead branches of trees that had fallen to the ground.

It was a girl with long dark red hair, looking sixteen or seventeen years old, young and beautiful.

Oops.

The girl glanced at the dead branches under her feet, then looked forward again, and found that the ghost shark was following her reputation, looking at her with a smile.

She didn't have time to think, she turned and ran, and soon disappeared into the depths of the ruins.

ten minutes later.

"hu~hu~"

The girl hid behind a statue in the park, panting with fear, looking back from time to time to make sure the enemy was not following.

She is the last queen of Loulan, the mother of Salsa, the previous queen, who was killed by the minister because she saw through the conspiracy of the minister Baizu. After that, the army of the Kingdom of Wind arrived, destroying Loulan in a destructive way. Only Sarah survived under the desperate protection of her subordinates.

In the former Loulan Kingdom, now she is the only one left.

Although she is a queen, she has no subjects. Despite this, in the past few years, Sarah has still adhered to the duties of the Queen of Loulan in the past——

She lives alone in the ruins, guarding the dragon veins.

If nothing else, this lonely and long life will continue until Sarah's death, until she also dies and leaves this world decades later.

But recently, a group of uninvited guests came from outside.

Sara speculated that those people came for the dragon vein, so she carefully hid in the dark, monitored them for more than two months, and used various means to interfere and prevent those people from approaching the dragon vein.

She grew up here, and is familiar with every corner of the street, so she was able to use the terrain, and she narrowly escaped the search of the sandy ninja several times.

Just like this time.

Thinking of this, the corners of Sarah's mouth curled up, revealing a smug smile.

After all, she was an adolescent girl, and it was too boring to stand alone in this ruin for several years. Well now, these guys who came to find the dragon veins have added a lot of fun to Sarah's boring life.

However, it turned out that Sarah was too happy.

"Hello."

Just when Sarah thought she had gotten rid of her pursuers, a voice suddenly came from the side.

Sara was shocked and looked forward with a look of astonishment, only to realize that——

The ghost shark quietly appeared in the park at an unknown time, sitting on a bench a few meters away from Sarah, raised Erlang's legs, and greeted her.

Without saying a word, Sarah turned around and ran in the other direction, but just after she ran a few steps, she tripped over the chakra wire under her feet and fell on the grass.

The ghost shark walked to Sarah, stretched out a hand to the girl, and said again:

"Don't be nervous, I'm not in the same group as those Sandyin ninjas, I'm here to help you."

"help me?"

Sarah stared at the ghost shark with a wary expression on her face, instead of shaking his hand, she frowned and said coldly, "I don't care who you are, you are not welcome here, and I don't need anyone's help."

"No, you need to."

The ghost shark corrected Sarah's thoughts on the spot and explained to her, "I know that you are the Queen of Loulan, guarding the dragon veins here. But you don't know that the energy of the dragon veins is very unstable, and it is very likely to cause space-time confusion, thus Summon people from the future era or from other worlds. Once that happens, there will be a series of chain reactions that will bring disaster to this world. Have you thought about this?"

"You... Who are you, why are you talking nonsense here?"

Sara was shocked, not only because the other party revealed her identity in one sentence, but also because of the sensational remarks made by the ghost shark.

"I am a peace loving person dedicated to maintaining the balance of energies in this world."

The ghost shark smiled and said inexplicably, "As for whether I am talking nonsense, when you bring me to the dragon vein, I will naturally prove it to you, little girl."

"Don't think about it!" Sara heard the words and immediately refused without hesitation.

Taking advantage of the ghost shark's inattentiveness, she suddenly got up from the grass and fled into the distance.

The ghost shark looked at the beautiful back of Sarah's escape, and followed him with his hands in his pockets.

Sara's good luck seems to have run out today.

She had just escaped from the park, and before she had time to catch her breath, she ran into a group of sandy ninjas head-on.

"Catch her!"

Several sand-hidden ninjas were overjoyed and immediately formed an encirclement formation. After a moderate battle, Sarah was quickly captured.

The Loulan Queen was bound by the Shayin Ninja with chains and held back.

The ghost shark witnessed all this, but he did not take action, but watched Sarah being taken away by the sandy ninja.

Since someone plays the role of the villain, he can save some effort, just need to have a oriole behind, and easily pick the fruit at the last moment.

Sara was brought to Garula by the sandy ninja.

"Your Majesty, please forgive their rudeness, I apologize to you."

Seeing that Sarah's neck was bruised by the chains, Kauri couldn't bear it, and hurriedly ordered Maki, who was beside him, to release the shackles for the girl.

"Hmph, don't be hypocritical. It's unlucky for me to fall into your hands. If I want to kill or cut it, I will never give you the dragon veins anyway."

Sarah turned her head to the side and said stubbornly.

"Really? Don't worry, we have many ways to get you to speak." Maki sneered, and even winked at a few Sand Ninjas, indicating that they could use the means.

Seeing this, Garula frowned, and again ordered Maki: "Don't embarrass her."

At her request, the Ninja Sandy did not torture Sarah, but interrogated her with illusion, and soon learned the location of an underground passage from her mouth.

According to Sarah, the end of that passage is the dragon vein.

After getting this information, all the Sandyin Ninjas were extremely excited and couldn't wait to get the power of the dragon veins and take revenge on the enemy.

So, they immediately escorted Sarah towards the location of the underground passage.

Shortly after.

Sandyin and everyone came to a dilapidated palace. Stepping into the collapsed gate, through the hall covered with marble but the ground is full of cracks, and finally, under the guidance of Sarah, who was controlled by illusion, entered a room deep in the palace.

Rumble.

When Sarah opened a secret mechanism, the dark grid on the floor slowly rose, and a deep tunnel suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

Kaura was pregnant, and with two children, it was very difficult to move, so it was impossible to enter the tunnel.

"I'll wait for you here. Be careful when you go down."

She told Maki that she felt very worried between her brows.

"Sir, don't worry, we will be extremely cautious to obtain the dragon vein."

Maki nodded solemnly, and instructed a few sandy ninjas to stay and take care of Kagura and her two children here.

Under Kagura's gaze, Sara was the first to jump into the tunnel, followed by Maki and others, and the group quickly disappeared into the depths of the tunnel.

"Sir, please rest for a while."

A sandy-hidden girl, Ninja, supported Kagura, walked to the sofa that was wiped clean next to her, and let her sit down. The other two ninjas were playing with Temari and Kankuro.

Kaura glanced at the two children, then leaned on the sofa with a smile, closed his eyes, planned to take a nap, and patiently waited for the good news from Maki and others.

But at this moment, a sudden change occurred.

Swish!

A sword light roamed the room, raiding several sandy ninjas, and with several screams, they fell down one by one.

The reason why these people were defenseless was because the people who attacked them turned out to be the most trustworthy companions.

The murderer is a young ninja named Yura.

boom!

As the two ninjas collapsed in shock, the hot blood spurting from their necks splattered on Temari and Kankuro, causing the two little devils to burst into tears.

"Yura, you..."

Kaura opened his eyes wide, stood up from the sofa, and looked at the murderer who suddenly defected and murdered his companions in horror and anger.
