Red sand dust

"Who the enemy is, can't you reveal it in advance?"

Gaara has also completed some secret missions, but those as mysterious as now are really rare.

The key is that it is closely related to the position of the Kazekage Fifth Generation that he is competing for. It is difficult for Gaara not to think about it.

"Be patient, Gaara! Also, be sure not to let Kankuro and Temari know..."

"knew!"

It is not appropriate for even those closest to you to know, and perhaps not only is it a matter of keeping it secret, but the danger is also considerable.

"There will be results soon! You have been communicating with Yiwei a lot recently, and you may need to rely on its power..."

"good!"

Ma Ji was also a little uneasy at the thought of fighting against the famous genius in the village.

The Red Sand Scorpion was once the object of admiration for many young people. Ma Ji, who is two or three years younger, also grew up bathed in the name of Scorpion's genius.

In the past, Ma Ji also embarked on the road of ninja with the aura of honor, but compared with the Red Sand Scorpion, he suddenly became eclipsed.

This was the case until the Red Sand Scorpion disappeared. Then, the world changed.

During the Third Ninja War, the young ninja Maki, who went to the battlefield at a young age and fought for the rest of his life, finally got a chance to make his mark. However, the genius puppet master back then was lost in the dust of history.

Now, that person is back.

Marky, who was in a complicated mood, took out a scroll and handed it over.

"Take this, and if the situation becomes critical, crush it..."

Gaara nodded and put it away.

If it weren't for Chiyo's instructions, Ma Ji really wouldn't want to give this to his students.

The psychic seal that sealed Ichibi Shukaku's own suppression ability was too weak. If he couldn't become a perfect jinchūriki, it would do great harm to Gaara.

Fortunately, Gaara, who has passed the dangerous period, is gradually getting back on track.

However, Gaara, who is in the growth period, has not stabilized physically and mentally. Even though he has reconciled with the One-Tailed Shukaku, the chakra is not completely synchronized yet, and he cannot instantly transform into a tailed beast and borrow it like a perfect jinchuriki. The process of tailed beast chakra is also not smooth.

Normally this small problem doesn't matter, but when facing a strong enemy, a moment of lag may lead to defeat and death.

In the scroll handed to Gaara, a simple technique is sealed. After crushing it, it will interfere with the psychic seal on Gaara, and at a critical moment, Ichibi Shukaku can be quickly liberated.

But there are risks in doing so. One careless move may cause One-tailed Shukaku to completely decouple from Gaara, and even the art of false sleeping has the risk of being completely out of control, not to mention directly interfering with the seal like this!

Maybe the current Ichibi Shukaku doesn't want to leave Gaara, let alone the death of his host, but if the seal collapses, no amount of thinking can do anything.

The jinchūriki who are linked by fate will lose the tailed beast in their bodies, and death will follow.

How likely this is, no one knows.

The magnetic escape that comes with Ichibi is too troublesome, and its chakra itself will involuntarily destroy the psychic seal that restricts itself.

The more seriously Gaara is injured and the longer the tailed beast's complete form appears, the more dangerous it becomes.

"Gaara..."

As a teacher, Ma Ji always felt that he should say something. He looked at the calm students and said seriously,

"The willingness to contribute to the village and the awareness to protect the compatriots is very commendable. However, you must also believe in your comrades. You are not the only one who has the courage to contribute. It is also important to rely on your compatriots occasionally..."

"what do you mean?"

Gaara pondered for a moment and asked in a low voice with some confusion.

Patting the immature shoulder of the young man who had grown much taller, Marky replied:

"Fengying... is not a lofty king, nor is he a lonely ascetic who is not understood, but a leader who leads everyone to create a future together. Maybe some people now misunderstand your consciousness because of your past misdeeds, but they They are not evil people with bad intentions, nor are they greedy people who need your blood and sweat to satisfy their desires. You, us and them are all the same and do not need to bear unnecessary responsibilities..."

"I... don't understand something!"

Being smart does not mean wisdom. Gaara, who lacked color in his childhood, still lacked some of the emotions he should have.

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand it yet, you just need to remember..."

Marky sighed and said earnestly,

"We don't need a Kazekage who surrenders to others with guilt and atonement. The past needs to be remembered, but not bound. Hold your chest high and be the Kazekage upright, the Godaime whom you are destined to be. It's a matter of course. The land should bear the praise of the villagers..."

Gaara, who was stunned for a moment, seemed to understand something, hesitated for a moment, and nodded heavily.

"Go back and rest first, stay in shape, and be prepared..."

After Gaara left, Maki looked at the list in his hand with a headache.

It just so happens that during this lean time, there are too few people in the village who can be useful.

In order to maintain secrecy, it is impossible to act with great fanfare, and only a small number of elites can complete the mission.

Once the loss is too great, the consequences will be disastrous.

In addition, the last two interviews with Elder Chiyo, his attitude also made people a little worried.

Even if she was a traitorous ninja, even if she violated the taboo, she would probably assassinate the Kazekage Sandaime, but that was her biological grandson.

It is always a tragedy to kill one's relatives for the sake of justice.

Perhaps, the day is not far away when the two elders Chiyo and Ebizo come out of their seclusion.

…

In the past two days, Daimaru, who had been hypocritically discussing with Jounin Centipede several times without knowing that the situation had changed, was seizing the time to repair the puppet and make some practical props at the same time.

As for teaching the students flight drills, they were completely out of consideration.

The current priority was to practice ninjutsu with Deidara as the imaginary enemy.

Daimaru can deal with ordinary clay puppets, and even C3·Eighteen and C0·self-destruct, Daimaru can think of something.

What troubles Daimaru the most is C4 Garuda.

Its power is secondary. The key is that those tiny invisible clay puppets can even enter the body with breathing. Once detonated, they will blow people into powder.

Even if Daimaru had the clones of Ukon and Hakuzetsu to protect him, he would not be able to withstand such an attack.

This move is a secret technique developed by Deidara specifically to deal with Itachi Uchiha and avenge his original defeat. Combined with the electronic prosthetic eyes that can see through illusions to a considerable extent, it is indeed very difficult to deal with.

If he could deal with this unpreventable nanoscale micro-detonating clay puppet, Daimaru would be quite confident that he would be able to contain Deidara for a period of time.

As long as Deidara doesn't defeat him quickly and fights a protracted battle, it will be quite beneficial for Daimaru.
