Red sand dust

Chapter 255 Intersection

Compared to the difficulties faced by other people traveling with him, Kurama Yakumo had an easier time. However, the camel was not a stable mount, and the cabin on its back was far from comfortable.

The most uncomfortable thing is the air that is so dry that it makes your throat smoke. Every time you exhale and inhale, your chest and abdomen feel like they are on fire.

I always drink cold water to moisten my throat, but the effect is getting worse and worse.

Fortunately, after persisting for so many days, we are not far from Sunagakure Village. This arduous journey is finally coming to an end. ·

When the seasons turn, it is always the most difficult time in the Kingdom of Wind.

Even the chuunin would be in danger if they were caught in the sandstorms that were coming and going.

The Konoha group was lucky enough to not encounter any extreme weather conditions that they could not cope with. When they were still dozens of kilometers away from Sunagakure Village, someone was already greeting them.

The person who came had short red hair, was carrying a gourd on his back, folded his hands on his chest, closed his eyes, and was quietly waiting for someone to approach.

Except for Kurama-sensei, who knew nothing and didn't care much, everyone's hearts, including Umino Iruka's, involuntarily skipped a beat.

When everyone approached, Gaara opened his eyes, walked up to them, and greeted them calmly:

"welcome……"

The ordinary words were repeated in the boy's mind countless times. Gaara, who was working as a receptionist for the first time, really didn't know what expression to use at this moment and could only use simple words to express his greetings. .

"Thanks!"

The leader, Umino Iruka, stepped forward and stretched out his hand.

As if he was a little surprised by the opposite action, Gaara's face showed a trace of surprise. After hesitating for a moment, he also stretched out his hand and held it with Umino Iruka's hand.

"Sorry, I was delayed a little on the way! I hope I'm not late..."

"fine!"

Gaara looked at the exhausted Konoha ninjas,

"The Kingdom of Wind is difficult, and some of you are tired..."

Other people could say it was okay, but Mr. Kurama, who had a pale face and seemed to have no intention of coming down from the Bactrian camel cabin, was really unusual.

Sensing Gaara's scrutinizing gaze, Umino Iruka smiled and explained:

"This is the top painting teacher at the Konoha Ninja School. Considering that literature and art are also part of the exchange, I also came with him! Because of my poor health, I am a little uncomfortable with the climate of the Land of Wind. I apologize for my rudeness... "

"It doesn't matter!"

Gaara, who was unconvinced by the explanation, nodded slightly.

"Come with me..."

With the help of the Incarnation of Sand, the nearby wind and sand seemed to have calmed down a lot. Everyone followed Gaara's footsteps and felt a lot more relaxed indeed.

After walking for a while, we could already vaguely see the tower at the top of the wall of Sunagakure Village in the distance.

"We're finally here, but don't look at it. It's still a while before we get there. Please just hold on..."

Speaking, Umino Iruka asked Gaara in front of him,

"Looking at your attire, are you already a chuunin?"

"yes!"

"You are really young and promising. Are you responsible for the Suna Ninja aspect of this 'exchange' event?"

Gaara shook his head!

"The person in charge is too busy, so he asked me to come and greet him..."

"That's really troublesome for you! I wonder who is your person in charge?"

"Daimaru..."

"It turns out that that interesting boy has grown up to the point where he can stand alone? In comparison, I am really slacking off, haha..."

Umino Iruka smiled and tried to ease the awkward atmosphere.

When the other Konoha ninjas heard this familiar name, their hearts trembled.

"It's him again!" 』

Teacher Kurama, who was sitting upright and looking at the outline of Sunagakure Village in the distance, lightly danced with a brush in his hand, and the outline of the fortress in the wind and sand instantly appeared on the paper.

Daimaru tapped his fingers on the table.

"Temari, you have been distracted several times. Do you hear what I said clearly?"

In order to successfully form the aerial team, Daimaru mobilized almost all available forces.

"You have a great responsibility to screen out the most suitable candidates..."

"I know, it's very simple!"

Daimaru has already assigned what Yeme and Qian have to do.

Kankuro is doing a preliminary inspection of the wingsuit that is almost ready. If there are no problems, Daimaru will test it himself. Once it is completely fine, it can be ready for deployment.

Apart from that, the top priority is the selection. Everything is ready, just waiting for the graduates of the ninja school.

"Gaara goes out alone, I still feel uneasy..."

"Aren't you a little too nervous for a genin to worry about a chuunin?"

"That's not someone else, it's Gaara. I'm his sister. Shouldn't I be worried?"

"Then what are you going to do?"

Daimaru said nonchalantly,

"Kankuro, shouldn't you also be concerned? I've been so busy for several days that I haven't slept well at night..."

"Isn't it because you have too many things arranged? Gaara is different..."

"What's different?"

Daimaru said casually,

"My sister's concern for my younger brother should not become a burden that troubles them! You have to adapt well in the future. Kankuro and Gaara are no longer children who need your protection. Your immature shoulders cannot bear this burden. Taking up the burden of the three siblings..."

"You don't have any younger brothers or sisters, so you can speak so easily..."

Temari retorted dissatisfiedly,

"If it weren't for you, they wouldn't have gradually distanced themselves from me and no longer relied on me as a reliable sister..."

"You blame me? People always like to complain, but rarely find reasons from themselves..."

Daimaru chuckled and handed the document in his hand to Temari.

"finished?"

"Well, you go and hand it over to Yura-senpai. He knows what's going on. It's almost time for the Konoha ninja to arrive. I'm going to greet him..."

"You go find Yura Jounin, why don't I go and greet you?"

It was just a good time to see if Gaara caused any trouble when he went out to the village alone to do errands.

Daimaru sighed:

"The leaders of the 'exchange' activities of Konoha Village and Sunagakure Village have officially met. Why are you, a genin, joining in the fun? You can consider taking my position after you become a chuunin..."

With that said, Daiwan wanted to leave.

After weighing the documents in her hand, Temari seemed to remember something and asked softly towards Daimaru's back:

"Is this really possible? Air Force Team..."

Many years ago, the Fourth Kazekage Rasa also launched a similar plan.

Not long after, the look of disappointment on her father's face was one Temari will never forget.

"Who do you think you are talking to? I am the genius of Red Sand Dust. How could such a trivial thing go wrong?"

Daimaru turned around, clenched his fist and pointed his thumb at his proud smiling face.

"In a little while, just wait and see how I lead the Sand Ninja to conquer the sky..."
