perhaps……

This must be why Konoha assigned Uchiha Kumo to this mission...

"Darui...let him lie low for now."

"Unless Konoha shows any obvious signs of decline, from today onwards, all actions of Kumogakure will be based on a policy of lying low!"

"Only in this way... will Lord Raikage's sacrifice not have been in vain, and will my life have been saved with some value."

……

under night.

At this moment, Uchiha Yun had just finished taking a bath and was drinking tea in the courtyard, wearing a bathrobe.

It's a publicly funded trip; since it can be counted as hospitality expenses when we get back, we might as well take advantage of it.

The little nine-tailed fox that had been lying down wrinkled its nose and slightly opened its eyes to look out of the courtyard.

In that direction, a little guy with dark circles under his eyes was slightly lifted by the sand, his eyes just over the courtyard wall, looking at the leisurely clouds.

That person!

That's the person...

If I kill him, wouldn't that prove my existence?

A being who could instill fear in my father and those guys... if I could kill him...

"You little brat, if you want to die, can you please not take me with you?!"

Gaara's cold gaze faltered for a moment, then he grinned maliciously, inwardly roaring, "Even a monster like you is afraid? Killing someone like that would be meaningful to me..."

Shukaku was speechless for a moment.

While the sealing methods used by Sunagakure were indeed a bit crude, there was nothing the medium could do if she was conscious.

"Kid, all I can tell you is not to go looking for death. With this person's strength, if you rush up, you'll be no bigger than a mosquito at best."

"No, a mosquito might at least bite you. But you... you're probably only about as good as dust."

"laugh!"

Gaara scoffed, "Dust? If I am dust, then what is my value? Only by killing this guy in front of me will I know..."

Shukaku remained silent, recalling what Uchiha Kumo had said to it earlier.

Perhaps he won't kill this brat in front of him...

At the same time, Gaara's ferocious gaze narrowed slightly.

With a casual lift of his hand, a stream of yellow sand suddenly swept towards the clouds from the gourd behind him.

Even as the sand and gravel swept in, the left hand holding the teacup remained perfectly still.

He swung his right hand out as if swatting a fly.

"boom!!"

The sand and gravel exploded and scattered all over the ground.

This scene stunned Gaara, who was standing on the wall.

too strong!

No wonder my father was terrified; such power is simply too strong!

Correct!

That's it. Only with such power can one demonstrate the meaning of their existence by killing!

"what!!"

With a roar, Gaara leaped down, raising both hands.

Instantly, quicksand swept in again.

Yun frowned slightly and casually set up a shielding barrier.

Then it allowed the quicksand to sweep over it and envelop it, forming a sphere of sand that kept squeezing as if trying to crush its prey.

But the next moment...

"boom!"

The round grain of sand was shattered with a punch, and Yun slowly walked out, looking at Gaara: "He's just a child, I don't know why he's so full of hostility..."

The little nine-tailed fox lying nearby seized the opportunity to say, "Yun, it seems that the stupid raccoon didn't guide him well... How about we drag out the one-tailed fox and give him another beating?"

Yun turned around and glared at it: "I've noticed that your style is changing more and more drastically lately, are you a street thug?"

As he spoke, Yun casually brushed away the sand that was rushing towards him again, and the next moment, his figure vanished in an instant.

The cloud reappeared, standing in front of Gaara, its gaze indifferent.

Gaara sneered, "Such immense power, I wonder if it can break through my absolute defense..."

"boom!!"

A kick landed squarely on Gaara's side.

At this moment, neither the person nor the automatically defending sand could rise up, let alone react.

"boom!"

Gaara's kick sent the wall flying, causing it to shatter. Yun slowly walked forward and said, "Have you calmed down yet?"

Gaara, with one cheek slightly swollen, struggled to his feet, a trickle of blood slowly flowing down his forehead.

Stimulated by his own blood, Gaara's gaze became even more ferocious.

"Blood...my blood...blood that can feel pain! This feeling...I want to kill you, kill you!"

Gaara, laughing wildly, once again activated the gourd behind him. However, before the sand inside could emerge, Yun Shunshen approached and slapped it back.

The next moment, Yun shook her head slightly and said, "Is he still not awake? He clearly slept long enough today since Yiwei didn't disturb him, right?"

As he spoke, Yun suddenly stomped down again.

"boom!!"

Gaara was kicked away once again, crashing into the wall and only managing to get up shakily after a long while.

With his cheeks swollen and his dark circles under his eyes, the scene was rather comical.

Even so, this seemingly mentally broken kid still hasn't given up.

The art of feigning sleep!

Feeling drowsy, Gaara collapsed to the ground and fell asleep.

This scene made both Yun and Little Nine-Tailed Fox laugh.

If they can't win, they're going to unleash their ultimate move. But this eight or nine-year-old kid seems to have forgotten that Shukaku didn't want to fight in the first place. If he comes out now, he'll definitely get beaten up. Only an idiot would come out like that!

Yun stepped forward, picked Gaara up, casually put him aside, and then patted his swollen face.

After a few moments, although the swelling worsened, the little devil thankfully woke up.

Upon opening his eyes, Gaara immediately saw the clouds and said in a deep voice, "Is it still not enough? I didn't even kill you..."

Yun smiled and replied, "Shouhe doesn't dare to fight me, because it knows that coming out will only get it beaten up, so why would it come out to suffer?"

At this point, Yun looked at Gaara and said, "You have the ability to control sand, but it's different from Magnet Release. To have such power at your age, you're already very strong."

Gaara slightly raised his head, his gaze fixed on the clouds: "That was the power of the monster within me, but even so, I couldn't kill you!"

Yun shook her head slightly: "This power doesn't belong to Shouhe. Since you came to me, it wouldn't dare lend you any of its power..."

Gaara was stunned as soon as he finished speaking.

It wasn't... the power of that monster, was it?

Gaara raised his hands, his eyes filled with doubt.

Where does the power of sand come from, always protecting itself?

At that moment, he recalled the monster's words from his previous consciousness. Given that attitude, it wouldn't grant him power, would it?

A fleeting smile crossed Yun's eyes before he spoke, "The power of protection isn't from the tailed beasts. It seems the person who gave you this power wants to protect you forever, kid."

Gaara raised his head slightly, a hint of softening appearing in his ferocious gaze: "You mean... someone wants to... protect me forever?"

Yun nodded: "What you possess within you is not just the power of Shukaku. The sand you just saw contained something that truly protects you."

At this moment, the little nine-tailed fox jumped over and perched on Yun's shoulder, saying, "You're really lenient with kids... Is there something special about this brat?"

special?

In the original story as I remember it, the reason why he was able to become the Fifth Kazekage was perhaps primarily due to the lack of successors in Sunagakure. However, once his personality was corrected, he became the perfect candidate in the plan.

The original intention of stopping Shukaku from disturbing its rest was to plant a seed.

But now that it has delivered itself to our doorstep, we might as well nurture this seed and make it remember us completely.

Give them a beating, then lecture them.

This method, based on the power of persuasion, seems surprisingly effective.

"Buzz!"

With a soft sound, the chakra overflowing from Gaara's body was suppressed by Yun.

"Such a random outburst can damage things. Even though you're just a kid, I'll still beat you up."

Gaara slightly raised his head and answered irrelevantly, "Yashamaru said... Mother never loved me."

"Gaara, the demon who only loves himself..."

"Fighting only for myself..."

As Gaara murmured to himself, another image suddenly flashed into his mind.

At that time, Yashamaru's statement was followed by another statement.

"Only in this way can you continue to exist..."

Gaara has never understood the meaning of this sentence.
