Sky Curtain: Short Video Commentary on Konoha Villagers

Iwagakure Village, Tsuchikage's Office.

When Ohnoki saw this description, the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

"The weakest? That's practically nonexistent. Just that sandy area alone is completely unsuitable for production."

Heitu stood to the side, hands on his hips, looking somewhat gloating.

"Grandpa, what do you think the people of Sunagakure eat? Sand?"

Onoki glared at her. "Don't talk nonsense. At least they have an oasis where they can grow something. But..."

He suddenly thought of the attitude of the Daimyo of the Land of Wind towards Sunagakure. From this perspective, the people of Sunagakure probably really don't have enough vegetables to eat on a regular basis.

Kumogakure, Raikage's office.

The Fourth Raikage, A, leaned back in his chair, his expression slightly relaxed.

"I once led a team through the desert of the Land of Wind, and after three days we didn't see a single person."

"Moreover, Sunagakure does rely on imports for its resources, and its economy is mainly supported by mission rewards and funding from the Daimyo. However, the Daimyo of the Land of Wind has always provided limited support to Sunagakure."

Thinking about this, Ai just found it funny.

Living off charity, it's no wonder they're getting weaker and weaker.

Unlike them, the lords actively begged to allocate funds to them.

[Later, the Land of Wind repeatedly reduced its ninja force due to economic problems, which further exacerbated the already weakened fighting strength of the Sand Village.]

However, they began to focus on cultivating elites, such as ninjas like Gaara and Temari who were far beyond their peers.

[And among the elite of the elite, none other than those with bloodline limits.]

Besides Magnet Release and Sasori of the Red Sand, Sunagakure also had a bloodline limit in its early days: Scorch Release: Leaf Release.

He was an elite Jonin of the village, who made countless contributions to Sunagakure, and his title as a Scorching Release Ninja once resounded throughout the ninja world.

Under the sky, the ninjas who had witnessed Yekura's performance on the battlefield were all taken aback.

Yekura's Scorching Release technique is extremely powerful, and it has made many enemies tremble with fear on the battlefield.

Many of them died from the Scorching Release technique.

After the war, they never heard from Yekura again, but with such a strong ninja, she must have been treated well in Sunagakure, right?

After all, a place like Sunagakure, which is short of talent, should cherish that level of combat power.

Thinking about this, many of them felt resentful.

The more they thought about it, the angrier they became. A man who had killed so many of his comrades on the battlefield was actually being treated well when he returned to the village.

[A ninja with such a rare bloodline limit should, according to normal logic, be well protected by the village.]

But it's clear that Rasa is not a normal person.

[Rasa and some high-ranking officials of Sunagakure, in order to gain some benefits from Kirigakure, deliberately sent Pakura as an envoy to Kirigakure for peace talks, where she was ultimately killed by Kirigakure ninja.]

Under the sky, everyone was dumbfounded.

Is this even humanly possible?

Even those who hate Yekura the most will feel relieved after seeing this message.

A ninja was betrayed by the village he trusted most.

No wonder they haven't heard anything about Yekura all these years.

It turns out they were betrayed long ago.

It's unbelievable that a ninja of such fighting prowess would end up like this...

[And Luo Sha didn't even spare his own son.]

When Gaara was born, Rasa sealed Shukaku inside him.

[Rasa initially wanted Temari or Kankuro to become Jinchūriki, but for some reason it wasn't suitable, until Karura gave birth to Gaara.]

[Furthermore, Rasa had always wanted to create a perfect Jinchūriki. Before Gaara, Rasa had tried to use three ninjas as vessels for Shukaku, but all of them failed.]

In Kumogakure, the Fourth Raikage, A, stroked his chin upon seeing this text.

"Hmm... Although Rasa is a bit obsessed with this, the perfect Jinchuriki has indeed greatly improved the village."

"Losing only three people wouldn't be a huge blow to the village, would it?"

Although the number is small, it should be noted that the number of usable ninjas in Sunagakure is extremely limited.

Those who are chosen as Jinchūriki must excel in some aspect.

[Rasa's actions had a more severe impact on Sunagakure's fighting strength than the Daimyo's reduction of ninja numbers.]

Upon seeing this, the Raikage immediately retracted his previous statement.

"If that's the case... Sunagakure was already weak, and he's still messing with his own village's elite. Isn't that digging his own grave?"

"Isn't this just like Danzo, only targeting his own people?"

Sunagakure Village, Kazekage's office.

Luo Sha looked at the words on the sky, his whole body turning red.

"I did all of this for the village!"

"You simply don't understand! Sunagakure suffers from a lack of resources and a talent gap. If we don't cultivate perfect Jinchūriki, how can the village stand among the Five Great Nations?!"

Granny Chiyo's tone was powerless; she was utterly speechless at Rasa.

"Luo Sha, your initial intentions may have been good. But your actions..."

Faced with the lecture from a seasoned veteran like Chiyo, Rasa could only shut up.

After all, he was in the wrong, and Chiyo was, strictly speaking, his elder.

After Rasa's death, Gaara succeeded him as Kazekage. Sunagakure experienced an unprecedented period of prosperity, demonstrating the crucial importance of the village leader's ideology.

Sunagakure Village, Kazekage's office.

Luo Sha sat in the chair, feeling as if all his strength had been drained away.

"Gaara is stronger than me as Kazekage?"

"How is that possible? That brat... that failed experiment..."

Under Gaara's leadership, the relationship between Sunagakure and Konoha has improved significantly.

With the frequent wars over, Princess Temari married into Konoha, and Temari and the Hokage were close friends. With Konoha's support, the village of Sunagakure's economy also flourished.

Furthermore, they eventually came to understand each other, and they would help each other when one of them was in trouble, which served as an invisible guarantee of Sunagakure's fighting strength.

The village of Sunagakure developed significantly better under Gaara's leadership compared to Rasa's.

Under the sky,

Luo Sha listened to all this with a very unpleasant expression.

It's one thing for Temari to marry Nara Shikamaru, but how come Gaara is now brothers with the Hokage?

Why did my whole family end up in Konoha?

He felt his blood pressure was a little high.

But at this point, we must mention what Gaara experienced in his childhood.

Under the sky, everyone fell silent.

Sunagakure Village, Kazekage's office.

Upon seeing these words, Luo Sha's face turned pale and then flushed.

Is Tianmu about to start digging up his past again?

But everything I did was for the village!
