Chapter 175 Hello, fellow
Chapter 175 Hello, fellow
Kankuro and Temari looked in the direction of the voice and spotted the black-haired boy who had appeared behind Gaara earlier.
The man had a cold expression and was wearing a black jumpsuit. The silent blue arc of electricity in his hand condensed into a solid entity, giving the two a strong sense of threat.
"Gaara's absolute defense was penetrated by something like this?"
The sharp-eyed Kankuro glanced behind Gaara without leaving a trace. The bit of sand armor that was peeling off proved the terrifying penetrating power of that strange ninjutsu.
"She's pretty cute, and pretty strong, but I didn't expect there to be so many monsters in Konoha Village."
Seeing the battle situation, Temari's expression changed slightly, not daring to show any contempt.
Three against two. Judging from the current situation, their side has the advantage in numbers for the time being, but no one can guarantee how strong the two guys in front of them are.
The lowered head was raised, and the coldness and murderous intent in the eyes made Naruto and Sasuke frown slightly. They sensed the feeling of loneliness from Gaara.
"Another opponent worthy of being killed has arrived. You, tell me your name!"
"Sasuke, Uchiha Sasuke, a ninja from Sunagakure can openly appear in Konoha Village. Could it be the jonin examination?"
Sakura behind them exclaimed in surprise, "Jounin Examination? These guys in front of them don't look much older than them?"
It’s no wonder that Sasuke made such a judgment. Based on Gaara’s strength alone, he is indeed qualified to participate in the Jonin examination.
Although Temari and Kankuro never took action, they were able to team up with Gaara, so their strength must not be too weak.
"No, it's the Chunin Exam."
Since it was pointed out to her, Temari simply did not hide it. Instead, she lamented that Konoha was in a dark place.
"Looking at your age, you are probably Genin who have never participated in the Chunin Exam. Let's stop here today and see you on the day of the Chunin Exam. How about that? Gaara..."
At this point, their eyes slightly met, and Temari secretly cursed in her heart when she saw Gaara's suppressed excitement and murderous gaze.
broken!
If the monster in Gaara's body is stimulated now, things will probably become unpredictable.
On the other hand, Naruto, who had been frowning and staring at Gaara, felt very strange. This strange feeling seemed like he had felt it somewhere before.
"Shut up!"
As expected, Gaara's sharp shout made Kankuro feel exhausted.
"That's why I hate this emotionally unstable kid. When will he learn what it means to listen to his brother?"
He couldn't stop roaring in his heart, but on the surface he showed a forced smile, trying to calm Gaara's emotions.
"I...Gaara, think about it, isn't Maki looking for us? We should go ahead and not let the teacher wait anxiously. Anyway, these guys will definitely participate in the Chunin Exam, right?"
His eyes were cold and indifferent, showing no interest in anything except killing.
Just as Gaara turned to leave, Naruto's call made Temari and Kankuro sweat profusely.
"Wait, Gaara, let's try and see if I'm qualified to be your opponent. It doesn't have to be complicated, just a fist bump will be fine."
As soon as these words were spoken, the two men were so scared that they broke out in sweats, and Sakura behind them even spoke up to stop them.
"What are you doing, Naruto? You should just let them leave. If a fight breaks out in the village, it will cause trouble for Kakashi-sensei."
"Shut up, Sakura. Does Naruto have his own ideas, or do you think the two of us are no match for the three of them?"
Sasuke didn't even turn his head and shouted sternly. Although his deep eyes were a little puzzled, he still chose to believe it.
Gaara, who was about to leave, stopped where he was, turned around and stared into those blue eyes.
After a brief look at each other, Gaara seemed to sense a different presence. He raised his right hand, clenched it into a fist, and smashed it hard.
boom!
A strong wind suddenly arose, and blood flowed from the fingertips of the two men who were punching each other. Their blue eyes flickered inexplicably, and the chakra of the tailed beasts in their bodies pulled them into an inner world that ordinary people could not reach.
The azure blue heart lake reflected the two of them, and Naruto's eyes flashed with understanding, and his tone was humorous.
"It seems that I am not the only one who is regarded as a monster. There is also a monster hidden in your body. Isn't that good? We are the same kind."
His pupils trembled slightly, Gaara looked around, and then looked behind him.
"Mom? What's going on? Why am I entering here?"
"Mom? Um... Never mind, let me start from here. This is the inner world that only Jinchūriki can step into. It is also an independent spiritual world that communicates with the tailed beasts."
"Who is the tailed beast in your body? Don't tell me you don't even know its name. My partner is Kurama. Are you still sleeping? Get up and meet your companions."
The azure water behind him suddenly opened a pair of red vertical pupils as big as a carriage, and his mountain-like tail splashed up huge waves.
"So annoying, little brat...wait. This chakra belongs to a stinky tanuki!"
"Who are you calling a stinky civet cat, you bastard!"
Shukaku, with curse marks all over his body and looking like a tanuki, appears clearly behind Gaara, glaring at Kurama.
"You bastard fox, you've been locked up in a stinky brat for so many years, and your temper hasn't improved at all!"
"No matter what you say, it's useless. The strength of a tailed beast is determined by the number of tails it has. Just one tail, tsk!"
"You bastard, I will kill you, absolutely kill you, and make your fox skin into fur..."
The roars of the two tailed beasts echoed in his inner world. Naruto had a smile on his face, looking as if it was just as he expected.
"From the one-tail to the nine-tail, each tailed beast is unique. I am really happy to meet the only nine companions in this world."
"Goodbye, my fellow creature, my natural friend."
The contact was cut off, and the length of the inner world was only a moment in reality. The expression on Gaara's face changed from murderous intent to confusion, and finally to puzzlement.
Naruto smiled without saying anything, turned around and left with Sasuke and the others.
"I... Gaara, please stop fighting, please. Just treat it as a request from your elder sister and elder brother..."
Gaara's eyes swept across the two people's forced smiles, turned and left without saying a word. The lonely world he constructed for himself began to crack unknowingly.
He thought he was unique and could endure the existence of loneliness, but from this moment on, Gaara knew clearly that there were also people struggling alone in this world.
Only you know yourself best. Aren’t your childhood experiences the same as those of that guy, Uzumaki Naruto?
"No, no! That guy, that guy has his own companions. I am the one who is feeling the loneliness. I will never allow it. I will never allow myself to be alone..."
"Let's go, Chunin Exam, we must kill him, Uchiha Sasuke."
