01.
An A-level task in conjunction with Sand Yin.
It's not the first time I've traveled far away, but the feeling brought about by this mission is unprecedented.
All the people are elites, and any problems encountered will be immediately resolved by someone. I didn’t feel this way when the brigade group acted together, er, because everyone would push and push...cough cough .
When encountering the robbers, Sakura was about to skillfully roll up her sleeves and prepare to move forward, when a bunch of bugs crazily gushed out from the body of Yume Shino over there, and the robbers were immediately scared away.
During the night's rest, Naruto collected firewood, and Neji lit it with a fire escape. Over there, Sakura and Shikamaru had already returned with a few prey.By the way, Sakura is carrying the big load, and Shikamaru is only carrying two hares.
Everyone couldn't help laughing after seeing this comparison.
After simply handling the prey, Naruto began to grill the meat. He still learned the technique of grilling meat from Wojin, but right now there is not much seasoning and it is difficult to use it. Naruto had to beg Shikamaru to contribute some herbs to taste.
The last Chunin exam was also in the Death Forest. Naruto stole Shikamaru's herbs and used them for barbecue. As a result, they didn't have enough medicine later... It's embarrassing to think about it.
As the temperature rises the fat melts, the herbs infuse the meat and the flavors intensify, and before long the outermost layer is roasted to a tantalizing golden brown.Naruto took the shuriken from Neji, cut off the meat and distributed it to everyone.
Moonlight Gale shook his head when he saw it. He said that when they were on missions, they usually ate ordinary military food pills to satisfy their hunger. How could they be so grandiose like them? I don’t know if they thought they were going out for a picnic.
As a result, when Naruto handed the barbecue to him, he ate more than anyone else... and also said that jounin needed more energy, which won everyone's unanimous stare.Well, Moonlight Gale is a crappy design.
No way, this kind of wild game is really delicious. The rich gravy is squeezed out after one bite, and the taste buds are conquered in an instant. The meat is also tender and smooth. Fruit trees, the refreshing feeling of eating can be imagined.
After eating and resting for a while, they continued on the road. After several days and nights of traveling, Yueguang Gaifeng and his party soon arrived at Shayin Village.Not long after night fell when we arrived at Shayin Village, Shayin had a completely different scenery from Konoha, rolling yellow sand, endless desolation, and never-ending strong winds.
The cold moon hangs high, casting pale moonlight on the earth.
By the moonlight, I could clearly see a few people standing at the gate of Shayin Village.
When I got closer, I found that it was Gaara, Kankuro, and Temari.Gaara clasped her hands in front of her chest, her belt fluttered wantonly in the wind, her lower jaw was raised slightly, showing the usual cold and arrogant appearance of a teenager.
The footsteps of Konoha and the others stopped for a moment.
The scene where I met Gaara last time was really unfriendly. Needless to say, the scene where Gaara turned into a monster was witnessed by most of the people present. The horror of killing and blood The breath they still remember now.
Only Naruto rushed out immediately, walked over with a smile and said, "Ah, long time no see, you three! Let me emphasize again, long time no see! Gaara!"
After seeing Naruto, although the expression on Gaara’s face didn’t change, he was still very happy in his heart, and then he heard Naruto say, “Let me tell you that the song you sang last time was very good...I’ll go ?”
……Ha ha.
Naruto jumped a few steps back, and there was a spike of sand from where he was standing just now. If he hadn't dodged quickly, he would have been stabbed to death.
Um, because it was pierced by the feet, so the "heart" in "Touxinliang" refers to the "sole of the feet".
Hmm, no problem.
Moonlight Hayate immediately became vigilant, "Ninja Sand Hidden, what do you mean?"
"I'm not targeting you guys." Gaara said slowly, "I'm targeting Naruto."
Naruto: Pfft...
Ning Ci, who knew the inside story, coughed lightly, "It's not what you think, Captain Gale, uh, Naruto deserves it."
...In front of so many people mentioning Gaara's singing of the Land of the Wind ditties while drunk, Naruto, you are courting death.
Since Neiji Hinata, who has always been calm, said so, it seems that he misunderstood.Moonlight Gale thought.
Naruto continued: "But it's really nice to hear... Pfft... Gaara, are you really playing?!"
A piece of yellow sand flew up.
Naruto, who was almost buried in the desert, tried to crawl out of the sand with hands and feet. Although everyone didn't know what happened, but judging from Naruto's performance, he knew that his behavior could be called death.So everyone looked at him without any sympathy, Neji shook his head slightly, and stretched out his hand to Naruto.
"Ah, Neji, you are the best!" Naruto crawled out of the sand completely, and while saying this, he smeared the sand on Neji's body.
Neji: "..."
Shikamaru: "Pfft... Let me tell you about Neji, you must not have any sympathy for Naruto, he deserves it."
Gaara over there also said in an unwavering voice, "Yes, he deserves it."
So Gaara quickly reached a happy consensus with Konoha Ninja on this point.
"Even Gaara, you..." Naruto looked at Gaara in grief, and complained, "You have changed!"
Zhan Jiulang on the side looked very surprised. Although Gaara's moves looked dangerous, they didn't contain any murderous intent. It can be said that they were just playing around.
Fighting with people... Does Gaara have such a side?
And he looks very different to Uzumaki Naruto, if Gaara treats him like this...
Zhan Jiulang thought about it, and felt that he would die under Gaara's "slapstick". Anyway, he would never be able to hide from that moment just now... So cough, cough, let's not think about it for the time being.
The Temari over there smiled, and then said, "It's been hard work for you all the way here. We got the news from over there. It is estimated that you will come over tonight, so I am here to wait for you."
"It's time to work." Moonlight Gale said.
Temari continued, "You must be Konoha's Moonlight Jominin. I am Temari, the daughter of the former Kazekage. This is Kankuro and Gaara. They are all my younger brothers."
Gaara glanced at Temari, but didn't refute.
When Temari said this, her heart was beating wildly. During this period of time, I love Rob to get along much better than before, so she dared to say such things to outsiders.
But Temari's words are actually very decent in Moonlight Hayate's eyes. Of course Hayate has seen Temari, and knows that she is still a ninja at this time. It stands to reason that she is a bit unqualified as a receptionist, but Temari showed her daughter of the Kazekage position, and said that the two fellows are also the second generation of officials (...), so everything will work.
There are only a few polite words, everyone is a ninja, and they have always been straightforward. Temari directly took them to the pre-arranged accommodation, which is currently the best hotel in Sand Hidden Village.In the hotel, Temari explained the basic situation of the mission.
The mission is roughly like this. Recently, the Land of Winds mysteriously disappeared many children. I thought it was an ordinary abduction, but later found that there were traces of ninjas behind it, and the other party seemed to be a large-scale organization, which was very difficult.Since the battle with Konoha, Hidden Sand Village has suffered serious losses and lacks manpower, so they have sent an application for a joint mission to Konoha.
"I understand the general situation." Moonlight Gale nodded, "This kind of criminal behavior must not be tolerated."
"Thank you, everyone. Then, let's go back first." After Temari finished speaking, he was about to leave, but Gaara stood still.
"What's wrong? Gaara." Temari asked.
In fact, she was quite worried that I would reveal the situation, because the last time I met Konoha and his group, it was still in this situation of fighting to the death.
Gaara ignored Temari and looked at Naruto, which made Temari's heart skip a beat...then she heard Gaara say, "Let's go for a walk? Naruto..." and then he looked at Neji again , "Also, Neji."
Most of the people in Konoha didn't know that they had friendship, and the bloody and brutal side of Gaara was deeply impressed in their hearts, so they couldn't help being a little nervous at the moment.
"Okay." It was Neji who answered first.
This made everyone even more surprised.
Then Naruto also walked over with a smile, "Do you want to invite us to eat your village's specialty?"
Gaara nodded, "Yes."
It's not too late at this point, and it's perfectly feasible to go out and eat something together.
Kankuro showed an expression of lying on his face.
Is it raining red?Gaara actually wants to invite someone to dinner.
"Would you like a drink?" Naruto leaned over and asked.
Gaara didn't even look at him, and said without any ups and downs, "Don't talk about it."
"Ok."
Ning Ci looked at Moonlight Gale and asked for instructions, "Captain, can we leave for a while?"
After all, Moonlight Gale is the current captain, and he needs to ask for instructions if he leaves the team without authorization.
"Well, come back early, there are tasks the next day." Moonlight Gale said.
"I know, I know." Naruto said, listening to his tone, I always feel that he doesn't take it seriously... And it is true_(:3∠)_.
02.
The folk customs of Shayin Village and Konoha are also completely different. This is a village that pays great attention to tradition, to the point of being a bit old-fashioned.Naruto could even see that many women on the street covered their faces before going out.
But the nation in the desert is a warm and open nation. If it is a festival, you can see bonfires everywhere, and beautiful girls are singing ancient songs and dancing by the bonfire.
Naruto's eyes fell on a bunch of barbecue banquets over there, and said, "It's so lively."
"They're celebrating," Gaara said.
"Is it a holiday?" Ning Ci asked.
Gaara nodded.
All three of them were silent.
Every festival is their loneliest time, and the lively surroundings can reflect the fact that they are alone... this fact.
But not anymore.
Naruto thought for a while and said, "They sing better than Gaara."
Gaara: "..."
Rather than listening to Naruto's words, he would rather continue to be alone, ahem...
Under the leadership of Gaara, they entered a nearby restaurant, and all the guests inside immediately got up and ran away after seeing Gaara.The waiter came over tremblingly and asked what Gaara wanted. Gaara reported the names of a few dishes, and the waiter slipped away immediately.
"People in your village are so afraid of you." Naruto shook his head and said, "How many people have you killed?"
"You don't need to kill many people." Gaara said.
"That's true." Naruto also agreed, "If the murder method is cruel, many people will be afraid."
"Indeed." Gaara readily agreed.
Ning Ci on the side felt a lot of pressure. The two seemed to have reached a wonderful consensus in a terrible field.
"...But killing people is meaningless." Naruto shook his head.
Gaara nodded.
"Being with everyone is happier than killing people." Naruto continued.
Gaara didn't say anything, didn't nod or shake his head.
"Okay." Naruto raised the drink in his glass. It is a unique drink in Shayin Village. It is brewed with local herbs. It is refreshing and delicious, clearing away heat and relieving summer heat. !cheers!"
Neji first raised the cup very cooperatively, and Gaara also raised the cup, the cups collided, and they drank it all in one gulp.Naruto refilled them, and continued: "Let me tell you something, some time ago I was targeted by an organization named Akatsuki. Visually, the strength of that organization is quite terrifying, and it is estimated that there is more than one Kage-level strength."
Neji frowned slightly, he was with Naruto when he was arrested.
"They came here specifically for the Nine-Tails in me. I don't know whether they are just for the Nine-Tails, or whether the tailed beasts are all in their consideration. In short, you should pay more attention recently." Naruto said seriously.
"Understood." Gaara nodded, and after a while, he said, "The next Chunin exam will be in the Land of Thunder, will you take part then?"
"Participate." Ning Ci replied.
"Should participate." Naruto said.
"Then we can see each other again then." Gaara said.
Ning Ci was stunned for a moment, "Isn't it once every three years?"
Gaara shook his head, "The last Chunin exam ended in a mess due to the turmoil, and no one advanced to Chunin. The five major powers are now discussing to add a temporary exam this winter or tomorrow spring. The location has been set in the Land of Thunder, presumably There will be news in the near future.”
"I see." Naruto nodded.
"Understood." Ning Ci nodded, and then he looked at Gaara, "Your news... seems very well-informed?"
Gaara looked down at the clear liquid in the water glass, and said after a while, "If nothing goes wrong, I will take over Kazekage within two months."
Naruto squirted out the drink on the spot.
The drink sprayed irregularly towards Gaara radially in mid-air, and then the sand appeared automatically, blocking the drink dripping.Gaara muttered in his heart: For the first time, I am glad that I have the protection of this sand.
"Nani! Kazekage!" Naruto accused Gaara with his eyes, "We promised to be street fighters together! Why are you a god now?!"
"One, I didn't agree with you to hit the streets together. Two, I have to pass the assessment of the elders' group to succeed Kazekage." Gaara said.
After hearing this, Naruto couldn't help but feel a little sad, as if the friend who had promised to have a good time together suddenly became popular and professional, but after a moment of sadness, he became happy for Gaara again, "It doesn't matter, anyway, with your strength, what test pass But ah?! Wahaha after you become Kazekage, don’t I have another backer? When I go out in the future, I will say, my father is Hokage, and my brother is Kazekage, so I will ask you if you are afraid!”
"It's scary." Neji said over there.
Naruto pondered for a few seconds, then slapped the table and said, "Are you mocking me?"
Ning Ci was speechless and didn't want to talk anymore.
Gaara shook his head, feeling a little helpless towards Naruto.
03.
There are actually many obstacles for Gaara to succeed Fengying, and the prejudice against him in the village alone is enough for him to drink a pot.But based on Gaara's actions, it's actually not considered prejudice hahaha.
But besides Gaara, who is qualified to take over Kazekage?
Just like Konoha, if Tsunade doesn't come back, those elders are pushing and shoving, and they seem to be active by jumping up and down in normal times, but there is really no one who dares to stand up in that period, Rao Danzo At that time, I didn't show up... and I didn't dare to show up.
They are actually very self-aware.
My Gaara's teacher, Maki, had a long talk with Gaara, and tried to reject all opinions, but the elders took a step back and made a long list, saying that it was the assessment plan for Kazekage. If you can do it all within one year, you will take over Kazekage's position.
The first assessment was in terms of force, and Gaara won against three Sand Gakuen Jōnin at once, not even using the technique of feigning sleep.
The second assessment is policy, Gaara completed with Temari's help.
And the current child abduction incident is the third assessment.
Kidnapping of children happens in any period, especially in peacetime. After all, orphans are everywhere in times of war, and no one even wants to sell them, because everyone can pick them up casually... As for what to do after picking them up , depends entirely on their ideology and morality.
In times of famine... there is naturally such things as exchanging children for food.
"The children they abducted, those with poor physical fitness, were intentionally mutilated, and then they were sent to the streets to beg." Temari said with a frown, "as one of the organization's sources of income."
"So far, a total of three children have been found. One's legs were cut off, one's arm was twisted off, and one's eyes were gouged out. What they all have in common is that their tongues were all cut off." Kankuro stood aside Said, "And...they have all been sexually assaulted to varying degrees."
"This kind of scum." Shuju punched the table, "They should be arrested and tortured to death bit by bit."
Konoha's ninja also showed more or less shocked and indignant expressions.
After all, this kind of thing is really terrible.Inhuman.
Kankuro distributed the photos of those children to everyone, and their tragic situation was moving.The children were supposed to be the hope of the future, but they were treated like that, and Kankuro said that even the best medical ninjas in Sagakure could not save their injuries, and one of the children died of an infected wound.
"It's really terrible, how can humans do such a thing." Shikamaru said with a frown.
Then Yue Zongjin's voice appeared in his mind on the third day: "It is because he is a human being that he can do this kind of thing."
...that makes sense too.
"Other species don't have the wisdom to do this for their own benefit." Sanri Yue Zongjin said.
"Are you bashing humans?" Shikamaru asked.
"No, I'm just objectively explaining humanity and human wisdom." Mikayue Zongjin said.
Their communication was carried out in their minds, so it seemed to others that Shikamaru was just in a daze for a while, and everyone thought Shikamaru was shocked by what he heard and saw.
"So, according to your investigation results, is there a breakthrough?" Moonlight Gale was still calm, and he directly asked the key to the current matter. .
"Yeah." Temari nodded, Kankuro unfolded a map of the land of the wind, and then Temari pointed at two places with his fingers, and said, "Akino Town, Arashi Village, these two places, there have been incidents of missing children recently. , but because of time constraints, I suggest..."
"The soldiers are divided into two groups?" Moonlight Gale asked.
"Hmm." Hand bowed his head, "To be on the safe side, one person from each team will serve as a dedicated liaison officer, and everyone should try not to act without authorization."
"Yeah." Moonlight Gale over there also agreed.
Next is the grouping, and Gaara said directly: "Naruto, Neji, Shikamaru and I are in a group."
Kankuro said, "Gara, so..."
"You guys will hold me back." Gaara said flatly.
Kankuro immediately fell silent, even though I love Robbie, who was easier to get along with before, at least he wouldn't kill someone if he disagreed with him, but his fear of him couldn't be eliminated for a while.
With Gaara's intervention, the final group came out quickly. Group A was Gaara, Neji, Naruto, Shikamaru, and Sand Ginjo Asakura Rika.Group B is Hayate Moon, Temari, Kankuro, Sakura, and Shino Aburame.
The power distribution seems to be even, but everyone knows that Group A can beat Group B, so when Gaara directly asked for the more dangerous place of Akino Town on behalf of the family, no one stopped it.
The mission started soon. It stands to reason that the captain of Group A should be Rika Asakura who is a ninja, but because of Gaara, she lowered her sense of existence as much as possible.Naruto and the others were also happy to see the success, and Shikamaru directly assumed the command work.
Shikamaru said that it feels a bit cool to be able to command Jonin.
Everyone can trust Shikamaru's talent in this area.
Including Gaara... After all, Gaara has suffered a lot from his father, but in fact, he will name Shikamaru because he knows that Shikamaru and Naruto are companions.In other words, he named Shikamaru for Naruto.
After thinking about it, Shikamaru understood the reason. He couldn't help feeling that Naruto is really like a magnet, able to attract many people to him.
But in the end, who will be closest to him?
Now no one knows.

An A-level task in conjunction with Sand Yin.
It's not the first time I've traveled far away, but the feeling brought about by this mission is unprecedented.

After several days and nights of traveling, Yueguang Gaifeng and his party soon arrived at Shayin Village.Not long after night fell when we arrived at Shayin Village, Shayin had a completely different scenery from Konoha, rolling yellow sand, endless desolation, and never-ending strong winds.
The cold moon hangs high, casting pale moonlight on the earth.

Ning Ci was stunned for a moment, "Isn't it once every three years?"
Gaara shook his head, "The last Chunin exam ended in a mess due to the turmoil, and no one advanced to Chunin. The five major powers are now discussing to add a temporary exam this winter or tomorrow spring. The location has been set in the Land of Thunder, presumably There will be news in the near future.”
"I see." Naruto nodded.
"Understood." Ning Ci nodded, and then he looked at Gaara, "Your news... seems very well-informed?"
Gaara looked down at the clear liquid in the water glass, and said after a while, "If nothing goes wrong, I will take over Kazekage within two months."
Naruto squirted out the drink on the spot.
The drink sprayed irregularly towards Gaara radially in mid-air, and then the sand appeared automatically, blocking the drink dripping.Gaara muttered in his heart: For the first time, I am glad that I have the protection of this sand.
"Nani! Kazekage!" Naruto accused Gaara with his eyes, "We promised to be street fighters together! Why are you a god now?!"
"One, I didn't agree with you to hit the streets together. Two, I have to pass the assessment of the elders' group to succeed Kazekage." Gaara said.
After hearing this, Naruto couldn't help but feel a little sad, as if the friend who had promised to have a good time together suddenly became popular and professional, but after a moment of sadness, he became happy for Gaara again, "It doesn't matter, anyway, with your strength, what test pass But ah?! Wahaha after you become Kazekage, don’t I have another backer? When I go out in the future, I will say, my father is Hokage, and my brother is Kazekage, so I will ask you if you are afraid!”
"It's scary." Neji said over there.
Naruto pondered for a few seconds, then slapped the table and said, "Are you mocking me?"
Ning Ci was speechless and didn't want to talk anymore.
Gaara shook his head, feeling a little helpless towards Naruto.
03.
There are actually many obstacles for Gaara to succeed Fengying, and the prejudice against him in the village alone is enough for him to drink a pot.But based on Gaara's actions, it's actually not considered prejudice hahaha.
But besides Gaara, who is qualified to take over Kazekage?
Just like Konoha, if Tsunade doesn't come back, those elders are pushing and shoving, and they seem to be active by jumping up and down in normal times, but there is really no one who dares to stand up in that period, Rao Danzo At that time, I didn't show up... and I didn't dare to show up.
They are actually very self-aware.
My Gaara's teacher, Maki, had a long talk with Gaara, and tried to reject all opinions, but the elders took a step back and made a long list, saying that it was the assessment plan for Kazekage. If you can do it all within one year, you will take over Kazekage's position.
The first assessment was in terms of force, and Gaara won against three Sand Gakuen Jōnin at once, not even using the technique of feigning sleep.
The second assessment is policy, Gaara completed with Temari's help.
And the current child abduction incident is the third assessment.
Kidnapping of children happens in any period, especially in peacetime. After all, orphans are everywhere in times of war, and no one even wants to sell them, because everyone can pick them up casually... As for what to do after picking them up , depends entirely on their ideology and morality.
In times of famine... there is naturally such things as exchanging children for food.
"The children they abducted, those with poor physical fitness, were intentionally mutilated, and then they were sent to the streets to beg." Temari said with a frown, "as one of the organization's sources of income."
"So far, a total of three children have been found. One's legs were cut off, one's arm was twisted off, and one's eyes were gouged out. What they all have in common is that their tongues were all cut off." Kankuro stood aside Said, "And...they have all been sexually assaulted to varying degrees."
"This kind of scum." Shuju punched the table, "They should be arrested and tortured to death bit by bit."
Konoha's ninja also showed more or less shocked and indignant expressions.
After all, this kind of thing is really terrible.Inhuman.
Kankuro distributed the photos of those children to everyone, and their tragic situation was moving.The children were supposed to be the hope of the future, but they were treated like that, and Kankuro said that even the best medical ninjas in Sagakure could not save their injuries, and one of the children died of an infected wound.
"It's really terrible, how can humans do such a thing." Shikamaru said with a frown.
Then Yue Zongjin's voice appeared in his mind on the third day: "It is because he is a human being that he can do this kind of thing."
...that makes sense too.
"Other species don't have the wisdom to do this for their own benefit." Sanri Yue Zongjin said.
"Are you bashing humans?" Shikamaru asked.
"No, I'm just objectively explaining humanity and human wisdom." Mikayue Zongjin said.
Their communication was carried out in their minds, so it seemed to others that Shikamaru was just in a daze for a while, and everyone thought Shikamaru was shocked by what he heard and saw.
"So, according to your investigation results, is there a breakthrough?" Moonlight Gale was still calm, and he directly asked the key to the current matter. .
"Yeah." Temari nodded, Kankuro unfolded a map of the land of the wind, and then Temari pointed at two places with his fingers, and said, "Akino Town, Arashi Village, these two places, there have been incidents of missing children recently. , but because of time constraints, I suggest..."
"The soldiers are divided into two groups?" Moonlight Gale asked.
"Hmm." Hand bowed his head, "To be on the safe side, one person from each team will serve as a dedicated liaison officer, and everyone should try not to act without authorization."
"Yeah." Moonlight Gale over there also agreed.
Next is the grouping, and Gaara said directly: "Naruto, Neji, Shikamaru and I are in a group."
Kankuro said, "Gara, so..."
"You guys will hold me back." Gaara said flatly.
Kankuro immediately fell silent, even though I love Robbie, who was easier to get along with before, at least he wouldn't kill someone if he disagreed with him, but his fear of him couldn't be eliminated for a while.
With Gaara's intervention, the final group came out quickly. Group A was Gaara, Neji, Naruto, Shikamaru, and Sand Ginjo Asakura Rika.Group B is Hayate Moon, Temari, Kankuro, Sakura, and Shino Aburame.
The power distribution seems to be even, but everyone knows that Group A can beat Group B, so when Gaara directly asked for the more dangerous place of Akino Town on behalf of the family, no one stopped it.
The mission started soon. It stands to reason that the captain of Group A should be Rika Asakura who is a ninja, but because of Gaara, she lowered her sense of existence as much as possible.Naruto and the others were also happy to see the success, and Shikamaru directly assumed the command work.
Shikamaru said that it feels a bit cool to be able to command Jonin.
Everyone can trust Shikamaru's talent in this area.
Including Gaara... After all, Gaara has suffered a lot from his father, but in fact, he will name Shikamaru because he knows that Shikamaru and Naruto are companions.In other words, he named Shikamaru for Naruto.
After thinking about it, Shikamaru understood the reason. He couldn't help feeling that Naruto is really like a magnet, able to attract many people to him.
But in the end, who will be closest to him?
Now no one knows.
