"Get to work."

...

Akimichi family.

Choji Akimichi and Shikamaru Nara were curled up on the sofa playing video games.

For some reason, Nara Shikamaru wasn't very interested, and he couldn't figure out why.

Seeing this, Choji Akimichi took a bag of potato chips from the mountain of snacks and handed it to the other person.

"Give."

Nara Shikamaru looked at the potato chips, then shook his head after a moment.

Choji Akimichi: "What's wrong?"

"Still thinking about Sunagakure? That's not like you."

Nara Shikamaru: "No."

Choji Akimichi: "Then why don't you eat potato chips?"

The other person clearly loves potato chips just like him.

Nara Shikamaru: "I don't know, but I've suddenly lost interest in potato chips."

Choji Akimichi shook his head in confusion. Seeing that the other person really wasn't going to eat, he opened the potato chips and started enjoying them himself.

...

Outside Sunagakure Village.

Under the moonlight, the group finally saw the outline of the village in the distance.

"Finally back." Maki stopped wearily, looking at the familiar village in the distance, his tone revealing the relief of surviving a disaster.

He almost thought he wouldn't make it back.

Thank goodness, that guy from Konoha was a stubborn fellow, and they were able to please him and escape unscathed.

He never wanted to go to Konoha again.

In contrast to Maki's relief, two people in the group remained silent, their faces grim.

It's Kankuro and Gaara.

The two men, one carrying a gourd on his back and the other a puppet on his back, had an unyielding gloom in their eyes.

Kankuro raised his head, looked at the village in front of him, and spoke in a muffled voice.

"After I return, I will go into seclusion to study puppetry in depth."

"One day, I will become stronger and make those guys in Konoha pay the price."

Gaara, who was standing to the side, remained silent.

Kankuro looked at him, puzzled: "Gaara, Temari was left behind, don't you have any thoughts about that?"

He was furious, suppressed, and desperately wanted to become stronger immediately, return to Konoha, and wash away the shame of his clan. But he never expected that Gaara, who was always violent, would be so silent after experiencing such a huge blow.

He didn't understand.

Gaara, say something!

Gaara finally raised his head: "What did you say?"

Kankuro: "Don't you want to make that person pay the price someday?"

Gaara's expression darkened further.

he thinks.

Of course he wants to!

Although he doesn't have a deep emotional bond with Kankuro and Temari, their blood ties are there.

Thinking about Temari's fate, the anger in his heart was impossible to extinguish.

However... he had no choice.

There's absolutely nothing we can do.

That person's strength exceeded his own capabilities, and even exceeded Shukaku's capabilities.

Not long ago, when Temari was taken away, he clenched his fists, his nails digging into his flesh, and talked to Shukaku in his mind.

Can we give him the strength to try again?

He is willing to pay any price for this!

His response was a voice that Shukaku avoided at all costs.

No, please don't!

"Gaara, if you want to die, don't take me with you!"

"Don't say I don't want to give you power; even if I did, it would be impossible for me to defeat that guy."

"You're not a tailed beast, so you have no idea how powerful that person is."

"That's something you shouldn't even be facing."

Gaara, unwilling to give up, pressed on, "Just how strong is he?"

Shukaku: "Let me put it this way, do you know Hashirama Senju?"

Gaara nodded.

Shukaku: "Hashirama Senju once manipulated the Nine-Tails at will."

“I performed worse than that Nine-Tails when facing him.”

A profound sense of powerlessness left me, Ai Luo, speechless.

Ignoring Kankuro's anger and confusion, Gaara silently walked forward. When he entered the gates of Sunagakure, he stopped and turned back, gazing in the direction of Konoha.

total darkness.

'What is her situation now?' Gaara thought despairingly.

at the same time.

Leaf.

Temari's head throbbed with a dull pain.

But she was unable to speak; under the special training of Shenyue Xingyun, she was powerless to resist.

She couldn't even utter any harsh words; her usual sharp tongue left her speechless, and her eyes gradually glazed over in the face of the Divine Moon Nebula's immense power...

Chapter 541 Sasuke and Naruto Want to Improve

The following day, Shenyue Xingyun bid farewell to Sami.

Regardless of the reason, the other party had worked hard at home for many days. He was not a heartless person, so he escorted Samui to his doorstep and brought him many Konoha specialties.

Samui was deeply moved.

Although Shingetsu Seiun didn't do much, this was the first time since she came to Konoha that she had been treated so gently.

As they parted with heavy hearts, her eyes brimming with tears, she said, "Lord Xingyun, I will definitely come back."

He looked at Yekura and said, "Madam, while I'm away, Temari will take care of things for you."

Ye Cang: "Be careful on the road."

Samui then looked at Temari.

The latter's complexion was much brighter, but his breathing was somewhat weak.

"Take good care of Madam and Lord Nebula while I'm away."

"Don't be afraid of hard work."

"Don't be greedy."

"Practice your skills diligently and wait for my return."

Temari clenched her fists tightly and remained silent.

Ultimately, they had to part ways. Sam left reluctantly, meeting up with Mabui, who had been waiting for him, outside the village.

"Why are you so late?" Ma Buyi finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her come out. She had thought the other party had changed her mind and wasn't going back.

Samui: "I had to explain some things, which took a little longer."

He leaned forward slightly and looked up at Sam's reddened eyes.

"Isn't it?"

"You're so reluctant to part with it."

Sam remained silent.

Ma Buyi, however, had no intention of letting her off the hook: "Really? What kind of magic does that man possess that makes you so reluctant to let him go?"

"Just based on his looks?"

Samui shook his head: "Of course not."

Mabu-i thought for a moment, then suddenly grinned mischievously, "It wouldn't be ****%¥#~"

This time, Samui did not refute.

She wanted to tell some lies to cover it up, but everything from the past was still vivid in her mind, and she simply couldn't bring herself to say anything.

Seeing her shy yet lingering expression, Mabuya became even more interested.

"Is he really that good?"

If Temari knew about her question, she would definitely nod eagerly.

superb.

The kind that has no rivals.
