Saving Kankuro

Half an hour later, all the people and ninjas in the village had returned. However, they knew that Gaara had been captured. After Kankuro went to chase after them, Temari's expression did not change. There was no sadness, no pain, and no hysterical roar. Instead, she calmly settled everything in the village.

Such a calm display was really too strange. Only Baki knew that Temari was very sad, but she was the only one left at this time. She could not reveal any panic or lack of confidence.

Instead, she had to pretend to be very calm and confident. It could be said that Temari was supporting half of the village by herself.

"Okay, everything has been arranged. Baki, I will leave this to you. As a Jonin of this village, I have already done my work very well. Now, I have to do my duty as a sister."

Temari picked up her iron fan. She did not call Ryoha over to help. Not because she was strong enough to face this alone but because she did not want to do so. She did not want to involve Ryoha. Although they had been separated for more than two years, they often met through the Hiraishin. Their relationship was very good.

She was very clear about the hatred between Ryoha and Akatsuki, but she also knew that the relationship between Ryoha and Konoha was very bad. Baki just requested some reinforcement from Konoha. If the people of Konoha saw Ryoha around when they came, it would be very troublesome for her and him.

If Konoha discovered their special relationship, then the alliance between her village and Konoha would be broken. This would be very troublesome for Gaara and the village.

Konoha would use the special relationship between her and Ryoha to threaten the village. They might even attack Suna or capture her to lure Ryoha out. Although this possibility was not very high, as a wise person, Temari had to consider any possible situation.

What's more, she was very clear that the village's strength had been greatly reduced after the Konoha Crush incident. Now that the Kazekage had been captured, it would be great if Gaara could save himself. However, if his Tailed Beast were taken away, it would be difficult to guarantee that Konoha would not throw stones at them and swallow them up in one fell swoop.

As for why they were not worried about Konoha would immediately throw stones at them, it was very simple. Whether it was because of the existence of the Akatsuki or because both sides were allies, as long as the village did not violate the treaty of their Alliance, then Konoha must help Suna unless they wanted to lose their trust.

If that were the case, how would the other small villages dare to accept Konoha's protection? There was also the possibility that the big Ninja Villages would dare to form an alliance with Konoha. Therefore, as long as Ryoha did not appear, whether it was for the sake of the Alliance or to deal with the Akatsuki, Konoha would definitely come to help.

If Konoha were really so short-sighted, the other three Ninja Villages would definitely not ignore it. Whether it was to deal with the Akatsuki or not to allow Konoha to devour other villages to become stronger, the other three big villages would not let that slide.

So as long as Ryoha did not appear, and the treaty of the Alliance had not been violated, then Konoha was still obliged to help the Suna.

Of course, Temari could also ask Ryoha to help save Gaara and defend Suna. But this would be a violation of the Alliance's treaties.

She couldn't selfishly drag Ryoha into this matter, and even if Ryoha took the initiative to stay, Ryoha couldn't protect the village forever. After all, Ryoha was not bound to any village.

In the past, Ryoha was so considerate of her, so she was also trying to be mindful of him. She did not want to drag Ryoha into this matter.

Temari already had a detailed plan. If Konoha's ninjas could solve this matter, of course, everyone would be happy. If they could not solve it, then she would only expose her relationship with Ryoha. It could be said that asking for Ryoha's help was the last resort. Temari would not use it until the last moment.

"What we have to do now is to buy as much time as possible and delay the people who took Gaara." Temari took a deep breath. She was very clear about Kankuro's habits. If he went for a chase, he would definitely leave a mark along the way. Sure enough, Temari followed the desert and found the mark that Kankuro left behind that was very difficult to find. She continued the chase.

After more than ten minutes, she found Kankuro, who was lying in the desert. She did not expect this. In her opinion, if Kankuro could not defeat the Akatsuki duo, he would definitely escape. However, she ignored one thing. Today, Kankuro really regarded Gaara as his precious younger brother. Kankuro was trying to stall for time with dear life.

How could she ignore him? Therefore, she had to bring the still-alive Kankuro back. She could not chase after the kidnappers, and now she needed to rethink her plan. Her previous arrangements really could not keep up with the changes.

"Damn it." Although Gaara was also her precious younger brother, his current fate was still unknown. It is obvious that she must prioritize bringing Kankuro back for treatment. Otherwise, he would definitely die. Regardless of her feelings towards her two brothers, she really couldn't continue the pursuit. Moreover, she might not be able to catch up with the Akatsuki duo now.

More importantly, without Kankuro leading the way, she did not know where Gaara and his kidnappers were heading. She could only save one person at a time. She felt that if she woke Kankuro up, she might be able to get some important information.

"Damn you, Akatsuki!." Temari fiercely cursed. She swung her fan to lift Kankuro into the air and moved him along the direction of the wind. As Temari ran, she also fanned the wind. In this way, she could exert her speed to the maximum.

Now, she had to use this method to send Kankuro back as fast as possible. Temari's exquisite Wind Release ensured a quick and smooth trip for Kankuro.

When Temari brought Kankuro back to the village, Baki was covered in cold sweat. The way she saved people was too unique. Although it was a really fast method, it was too strange.

However, no matter what, speed was essential to save the injured. Unfortunately, Sasori was from Sunagakure. How could he not understand the level of the village's medical expertise?

With the village's current level of medical expertise, it was impossible to save Kankuro. In today's world, the only ones who could cure Kankuro 100% were Tsunade, her apprentice Shizune, and finally, it was Sasori himself.

But maybe there were three more ninjas who could cure Kankuro in Konoha. The first one was Kabuto's foster father. His medical ninjutsu was only second to Tsunade. The second was Kabuto, as his medical ninjutsu was still quite excellent. Finally, there were Kabuto's foster father's new apprentices: Sakura and Ino.

Although Sakura was not taught by Tsunade now, Kabuto's foster father did not spare any effort to teach her. With Sakura's talent, her medical ninjutsu was still improving day by day, but she did not know the monstrous strength fist just yet. However, she changed to another style. Like Kabuto, she was using medical ninjutsu to kill her enemies.
