A group of unidentified people had been causing destruction throughout the Land of Wind. With the intelligence unclear, Sunagakure might mistake them for desert bandits or wandering ninja.
When faced with desert bandits who occasionally popped up to cause trouble, as well as wandering ninja who had appeared from who knew where, Sunagakure usually would not make a big show of dealing with them.
