Red sand dust

Two brothers who were burdened with the tragic fate of falling in love and killing each other. While the elder brother Uchiha Itachi was thinking hard about his future plans, Uchiha Sasuke also spared no effort to use every minute to improve his strength.

According to He Daimaru's plan, the practice progress will take into account the actual situation and make slight adjustments. Generally speaking, effective communication will be maintained every night.

Tonight, the situation changed. Daimaru, who had been waiting for a long time, did not receive any answers to his questions. Instead, Koyamabuki, who had not appeared for a long time, brought the news of a temporary break.

Not long ago, because Uchiha Sasuke improperly selected the location and failed to take good care of the pets entrusted to be raised, the "secret agreement" between the two was automatically invalidated.

Without the promise of helping Uchiha Sasuke practice genjutsu, Koyamabuki didn't even want to talk to the vengeful boy who promised to do it but didn't do it.

"put off?"

Uchiha Sasuke was a little strange.

Although time is tight, one or two delays are still affordable.

The problem is that in the past, only Uchiha Sasuke would be in trouble due to accidents, and Daimaru, who took the initiative, never slacked off.

As long as he can afford the price, Daimaru will basically respond to any request. Although the price is relatively harsh, he is very trustworthy and will make compensation even if there are occasional mistakes.

"Father is too busy and has no time. Please let me come over and inform you."

The attack organized by "Akatsuki" didn't last too long, but the damage caused was astonishing. Daimaru, who almost went all out, was busy with trivial matters in the village until midnight. He really didn't have the energy to do anything for Uchiha. Sasuke's training paid off.

"Okay!"

Uchiha Sasuke, who was a little disappointed, did not ask for the specific reason.

"There is something I hope you can pay more attention to."

"What?"

"Orochimaru and Yakushi Kabuto seem to be preparing to take action and have placed many suspicious barriers around them..."

"I know, it's a futile defense!"

Although the method used by Daimaru and Koyamabuki to contact Uchiha Sasuke did rely on the power of the spirit, in essence, it was a communication bridge built with the help of a contract, which was a branch of space-time ninjutsu - necromancy.

The establishment of a barrier that can interfere with such a secret technique is very cumbersome, and daily maintenance requires a large number of professional talents.

This is a luxurious defensive armament that only the Great Ninja Village can afford. Orochimaru, a rebel ninja, no matter how amazingly talented and powerful he is, cannot survive with just the few people under him.

Wanting Daimaru and Uchiha Sasuke not to "hook up" is just an impossible fantasy.

"As long as it doesn't affect my practice!"

Since the partners were confident, Uchiha Sasuke was too lazy to talk nonsense.

…

Returning his attention to Xiao Shanchui in the cradle garden, he sat lazily on the huge petals and looked at the hibiscus surrounded by a layer of ruby ​​radiant energy in the stamens. A satisfied smile appeared on his small face.

The entire "Cradle Garden" had a lot of chakra drained from it due to a big battle. Not only did it not decline, it actually accelerated the growth of several little guys.

"Chakra is like the 'staple food' that supplies our daily needs. If we want to thrive, we also need a variety of nutritious 'side dishes'! Sure enough, my father is right..."

Simply accumulating chakra cannot make the "Cradle Garden" truly a sacred place for "artificial elves".

Only by actively integrating into the web of fate woven by the ninja world can one turn from fiction to reality and become a natural part of the ninja world.

At the same time, Daimaru, who was sitting in front of the window with his eyes closed and concentrating, suddenly opened his eyes and looked in the direction of Sunagakure Village Hospital.

"Gaara, have you woken up? It's a little later than expected. Without the One-Tailed Shukaku, there is still an impact on the strength!"

Even after losing the tailed beast, Gaara's fighting ability is still good, and he is in his adolescence when his strength is soaring. Following the path he has taken, he can quickly recover and even reach a higher level.

For a long time from now on, before all the tailed beasts in Konoha Village are captured, the Sand Ninja, including Gaara, can hibernate and accumulate strength.

Sure enough, within a few minutes, a member of the Shadow Guard suddenly appeared in front of the window, knocked on the window glass, and reported in a low voice:

"I just got the news. The Godaime woke up, but he can't control his body freely. I wonder if Agent Kazekage has any further orders?"

"Just strengthen your defenses and block the news. Until Gaara can take care of himself, no unrelated people will be allowed to approach..."

“What to do if the news leaks?”

"Find out the leakage route, keep an eye on the main figures, but do not deal with it! Whether it is leaked information, or speculations and rumors that are indistinguishable from true to false, neither confirm nor deny. Someone asks questions and shirks the secrets of the village. There is no way. inform……"

"I obey your orders!"

After a while, the house became quiet again, with only the sound of wind blowing outside the window from time to time lulling people to sleep.

"It's really troublesome!"

Daimaru sighed.

On the bright side, there should be a reliable permanent secretary and a shadow who specializes in dealing with shady and dark affairs. The head of a village does it personally, which is tiring. There is no buffer with internal parties, and conflicts can be easily resolved. In the open, people can't get off the stage.

Daimaru, who used to be in charge of the actual authority of the air combat unit, had the need to advance his will vigorously and resolutely.

But Kazekage, apart from stepping forward when the village needs it, the most important work he usually does is not the important things that determine the future of Suna shinobi, but to reconcile the conflicts between all parties, unite the scattered village around Kazekage, and maintain such a large community. Yitan's business is running normally.

In the past, Daimaru was the commander of the air combat unit who "made cakes", but now he is the Kazekage who "cuts cakes" with a knife and fork. The change of role must not be mistaken, otherwise he will really become Gaara's "black glove".

I don’t know how Gaara managed to take care of Kazekage’s work and still have time to practice and steadily improve his strength.

In comparison, Daimaru is indeed not as patient as Gaara, especially when it comes to certain people and things that he doesn't like, and he also forcibly suppresses his desire to go to war.

Nowadays, Daiwan, who does not have high requirements for sleep, found that he could not fall into deep sleep. He picked up a few books on the table, turned on the lamp, and read at will.

Most of these books that had not been read for a long time were ones that Daimaru once thought were of some value. There were also a few essays on past spiritual practice. It was said that the scriptures of a certain shrine maiden who had died out left by his grandmother were also among them.

"Ebisu, the god of good fortune who can bring wealth and luck and keep your family safe? I really want to see who you are..."
