Yiji also considered Cai, her younger brother, and asked him to join the Thorns group to build a bond between the siblings.

But the little mother who always holds leisurely afternoon tea parties in the office and at home will never let her go easily.

Xia Xingxing was even more distressed.

Sure enough, excellent ninjas have been clearly arranged by their superiors and will not sit idle waiting for others to dig them up.

"In this case, there is only one choice. Captain, do you still remember the Iwagakure ninja who used explosive escape that we captured from the Kingdom of Forest last time? His ability seems to be good."

After Xia Xingguang reminded her, Yi Ji's eyes suddenly lit up, and then she thought of something, and her brows subconsciously frowned.

"I remember that he was assigned to serve a sentence of rehabilitation in the southern mining area. It is not easy to get people there."

"Since the superiors feel that our Thorns Team is not strong enough, I think we can ask them to be a little more accommodating to us in this regard."

The summer star spoke righteously and sternly.

Yiji nodded slowly and stood up from the sofa.

"Then I will go to the old man to explain and ask for a handwritten letter. You go and inform the others that we will set off for the southern mining area tomorrow morning."

"yes."

Xia Xing agreed and watched Yiji leave again.

Under the extremely hot sun, Deidara finally got through the morning's mining work. Deidara was dragging his exhausted body to eat in the large collective canteen with the workers in the mining area.

The meal consists of two meat dishes, one vegetarian dish and one soup, with plump white rice and balanced nutrition. Deidara looked at the work meal in front of him and wondered more than once whether the treatment here was too high. When he and Scorpion went on a mission together, they were basically

Bring cold rice balls and get water on the spot to satisfy your hunger and thirst problems.

Occasionally, when I settle down, I will treat myself to a hot meal.

After all, most countries in the ninja world are very poor. Ordinary people live a precarious life. Food is always the first priority. In addition, when ninjas go on missions, they are used to eating and sleeping in the open. As long as they can fill their stomachs and avoid being eaten,

Just starve to death.

Subconsciously, Deidara suddenly felt that mining here was also a promising career. At least he would not have to worry about food and clothing. It was extremely attractive to wandering ninjas who were hungry. See most of this

Miners who work honestly and honestly know this. Their edges have been smoothed out and they are beginning to consider retiring in the mining areas.

The only bad thing is that the chakra is sealed and I can't study my own art. Otherwise, such a life would be too fulfilling.

When he thought of this, Deidara couldn't help but feel itchy.

Unfortunately, there is no clay available here, so it is simply unrealistic to make something out of it.

Moreover, even if you pinch something out, it is completely meaningless.

Art that doesn't explode can't be called art at all. It's just a bunch of boring clay dolls. And this kind of thing is definitely not the inferior art he wants to create.

So, Deidara sighed, feeling melancholy about the future, and glanced at the place next to him.

This place was originally Hidan's place, but now it is empty. The reason why there is no one is because the other party suddenly had a nervous attack for some reason last night, and attacked the staff here with a fork for eating, and said something

Shout 'Long live the evil god'.

In the end, he was beaten to death by the ninja from the Demon Country who walked in with a black face and dragged out. He is still basking in the sun outside.

According to past practice, he would be hung for at least half a month, during which he would only be given some water and food to ensure that he would not die of hunger or thirst.

Deidara's thoughts of causing trouble were immediately eliminated.

It wasn't that he was afraid, but he didn't like Hidan's foolhardy approach. It served no purpose other than asking for trouble and making his future even more bleak and worrying.

He felt that if Hidan continued to act like this, he would never get out of the mining area and would have to dig here until he died of old age.

If you want to leave here, you must abide by the rules here. This is the fastest and only way to gain freedom.

Although the treatment here was good and he had no worries about food and clothing, when Deidara thought about his unfinished art, he told himself that he would never fall down so easily.

Set a small goal first, that is, get the Excellence Award for Sanhao Miners at the end of this year!

"No. 95! No. 95!"

The sudden shout interrupted Deidara's thoughts, causing him to subconsciously turn his head and look. A fully armed ninja from the Kingdom of Demons was standing at the door, shouting his number.

Prisoners serving their sentences in the mining area have no names and are only called by numbers. Deidara's number is exactly No. 95.

He stood up from his seat and walked towards the Ghost Country ninja.

The other party called me over, obviously something was wrong.

"Number 95, someone wants to see you, come with me."

The ninja from the Kingdom of Ghosts glanced at Deidara, dropped this sentence, ignored Deidara, and led the way directly in front, gesturing for the other party to follow.

After hearing this, Deidara's face was full of confusion.

But in the end, he remained silent and endured his doubts. He wore hand and leg shackles and hurriedly followed the opponent's footsteps at the same speed.

…

Rest area behind the mining area.

In a simple conference room, Yiji crossed her legs and held two pieces of personnel information in her hand, scanning them.

One of them is Deidara and the other is Hidan.

However, on the white paper that Hidan was recorded on, there was a large red font printed on it - Danger.

Kazuki knew that this evil cult member named Hidan had an extremely dangerous anti-human personality, and if he was released rashly, it would cause a lot of trouble.

Coupled with the poor performance of the other party's southern mining area, the managers here have begun to consider whether to extradite such a difficult-to-manage thorn to the mining area of ​​​​the Country of Snow to dig potatoes. There is a shortage of manpower there.

In comparison, Deidara's performance was lackluster, but his calm and honest behavior still gained him a lot of points from the manager's side.

Understanding this, Kazuki felt that Deidara could temporarily build a relationship with Shiraishi and fish him out of the mining area, but Hidan was out of the question.

This evil cult member with a serious anti-human personality will have no choice but to dig potatoes in the Land of Snow and leave it up to fate when he comes out.

Therefore, Kazuki simply threw Hidan's information into the trash can and kept Deidara's information.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door.

Yiji shouted to the person outside the door without raising her head: "Please come in."

The ninja from the Kingdom of Ghosts outside the door opened the door and brought in Deidara, whose hair had become a little dry and withered.

Here you just have to work and have no worries about food and drink, but in the end you have no chance of freedom.

Especially for a ninja who pursues art like Deidara, it is simply killing his nature and preventing him from touching his art. Therefore, the expression on Deidara's face looks very depressed and a bit...

The smell of decay.

The ninja from the Kingdom of Oni brought Deidara and took the initiative to leave, leaving space for Kazuhime and Deidara.

"I thought it was who it was, but it turned out to be Her Highness the Princess. What's the matter with a subordinate prisoner like me? Hmm."

Deidara grinned reluctantly. It could be said that he became like this because of the other party.

"You seem very unconvinced."

Yiji raised an eyebrow, sat on the seat, continued to cross her legs, crossed her arms and stared at Deidara, with a condescending attitude.

"Of course, you defeated my art with despicable means. If it were an honest duel, it's hard to say who will win. Hmm."

Deidara was so arrogant.

On the one hand, he was dissatisfied with the despicable way the Thorn Team captured him, and on the other hand, he was extremely confident in his own art.

If it were an honest competition, he firmly believed that he would never lose.

What he expressed was this strong belief in not yielding to others. Even the hard work in the mining area could not erase his unwillingness.

"Originally, I thought that the work here would smooth out your edges a bit, but it seems to have no effect. However, ninja battles don't matter whether they are despicable or not. That is something only children will care about.

.”

Yiji's attitude was still cold and arrogant, and her condescending attitude made Deidara feel a little aggrieved, but he also knew that there was no point in showing off one's words.

And if he wants to prove his strength with actual actions, as a prisoner under his command, this possibility is basically ruled out.

However, Yiji's next words surprised him.

Yiji looked indifferent and said, "In that case, I will give you a chance to prove yourself again and make you convinced."

"A chance to prove myself?"

Deidara was stunned.

"Yes, that is to use your art to fight me. Defeat me, and you can be free immediately. And from now on, the ninjas of the Ghost Country will never be your enemy, nor will they appear within ten meters of you.

Guilty. But if you fail, the rest of your life will be decided by me!"

Yi Ji looked at Deidara who was completely shocked by his momentum, with a look of satisfaction on his face:

"The conditions are here, you are free to choose. However, I think you don't want to spend your whole life mining here and ruin your art, right?"

The provocative and provocative words resounded loudly in the room.
