Chapter 99: Poaching Gaara "I... am loved?" Gaara murmured softly, seemingly in disbelief. "Your brothers and sisters care about you, too." Naruto tilted his head towards Temari and Kankuro. I saw Law looking between the two of them, Kankuro grinning awkwardly and Temari's eyes softening. "But... that's not right." Gaara seemed to remember something, and a haze appeared in his eyes. "Yashamaru told me that my mother hates me." "Using people close to you to control the Jinchūriki is a common method used by the ninja village."
Naruto scoffed, "A Jinchuriki can only fully control his power after he has filled the void within himself, but the Sunagakure is doing the exact opposite, endlessly committing stupid things." "Using assassination, emotional stimulation and other methods to test whether a Jinchūriki is qualified when his mind is not sound, it is hard to imagine that this is a decision made by the human brain. I heard that it was your father?" When Gaara heard this, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes. Temari and Kankuro were embarrassed. Although they were Gaara's older brothers and sisters, they didn't really know much about the Jinchūriki, and didn't know much about the decision to assassinate Gaara. If it is really like what Naruto said, then this behavior is indeed stupid to a new level... Temari opened her mouth, wanting to restore the father-son relationship between Gaara and Rasa. "Father...he did it for the village." "The top leaders of Konoha are always like this. Under the pretext of doing things for the village, they arbitrarily manipulate the fate of others...even their lives and deaths." Naruto spread his hands casually, leaving Temari speechless. "I'm not the type who likes to talk nonsense, Gaara... The reason I helped you today, in addition to bringing the Nine-Tails to meet its old friends, the main purpose is still because of you." Naruto pointed at Gaara and continued asking in the face of the other's puzzled look. "Do you...want to join Kumogakure?" "me?" Gaara was slightly stunned, and Temari and the other person beside him changed their expressions slightly. "Yes." Naruto nodded, "You see, we are both Jinchūriki, we have both been feared and rejected by others, and even our life stories are extremely similar." "But the difference is that I got rid of Konoha, a place that made me bored, and found myself and my destiny, while you are still trapped in Sunagakure, suffering from psychological torture. This is not okay." Naruto raised his index finger and shook it, his tone leisurely. "As long as you are still in Sunagakure, your Kazekage will never be at ease and will never stop assassinating you. Only when he drives you completely crazy will he tell others - see, you are indeed a failure."
"If you continue like this, you will never find yourself, the meaning of your existence, or any future. One day you will die in the cold eyes of your father and the village." Hearing this, Temari hesitated to speak. She wanted to defend herself, but she couldn't say anything. As a ninja from the Sand Village, she couldn't bear to see Gaara being poached by Naruto. But from her sister's perspective, she felt that Naruto was right. Perhaps Gaara leaving Sunagakure is the only way to be responsible for his own life. "It's only Sunagakure who doesn't love you, not the whole world." Naruto said gently, "I am a good example. Some things have to be found on your own." Gaara was silent again after hearing this, and only looked at Temari and Kankuro after a while. Kankuro looked embarrassed, not knowing what to say. Temari, however, looked serious: "I will change Gaara's situation!" "What do you want to change?" Naruto tilted his head slightly: "With your strength, it is basically impossible for you to reach the position of Kazekage, not to mention this puppet player. The only position you two can reach in this life is just two high-level positions." "And if nothing unexpected happens, the finances of your Sunagakure have reached a precarious point. Without the support of Konoha, the interests of the village cannot be met, and internal conflicts cannot be diverted. I am afraid that you will soon launch a foreign war." "A Jinchūriki who cannot control the tailed beasts will almost certainly die on the battlefield. Even the weak Konoha has more than one way to deal with Gaara." "Then what can I do?" Temari was furious: "Are you going to watch Gaara betray the village?" "What will happen if I stay?" Naruto was calm and composed: "Are you going to watch Gaara die?" "I won't let this happen!" "Then you can come up with a solution?" Two yellow-haired people, a man and a woman, were confronting each other. Naruto was calm while Temari gritted her teeth. "So...Gaara, what do you think?" Naruto looked at Gaara. "I want to leave Sunagakure." Gaara said calmly: "You are right, I can't find myself there, let alone the future. I want to go and find it myself." As he said this, he looked towards Temari and Kankuro. "You two want to come together?" Kankuro and Temari said nothing, obviously not approving of this behavior. However, even though they disagreed, they did not dare to refute at this critical juncture.
"Is this so..." Gaara nodded, his expression a little cold. Temari pursed her lips reluctantly: "Why don't we let Kankuro follow? As for the village..." "Hey, hey, how can we do this? Wouldn't that put all the pressure on you?" Kankuro's expression changed: "This should be my job. I'm not bragging, I'm pretty good at playing tricks." "Pushing back and forth..." Naruto looked at the two of them and said in a teasing tone, "Why, is it hard for you to be with your brother?" Gaara's eyes darkened and his expression became increasingly impatient. "without…" "how come!" The two hurriedly denied it. "How about we all follow?" Naruto tilted his head with a smile: "You two, you don't want Gaara to leave and then have his tailed beast taken away, right?" "Can the tailed beasts be extracted?" When Temari heard this, a hint of anticipation flashed in her eyes. If the tailed beast could be extracted, it would be a great thing for Gaara! It is entirely possible to seal Shukaku back into someone else's body, and Gaara will turn back into the cute little brother he was in his childhood. Only if it is sealed into someone's body later... Love whoever you want! Just don’t let him be her brother! "After the tailed beast is extracted, the life force of the Jinchūriki will also be extracted, and the Jinchūriki will naturally die with it." Naruto saw through Temari's plan at a glance. Although, he could use Yin-Yang Release to give Gaara enough vitality to prevent him from dying. But of course he wouldn't tell the other person about this kind of thing casually. "So... choose?" Seeing Naruto's smiling face, Temari and Kankuro looked at each other, and then sighed at the same time. "Kankuro follow." Temari made the final decision. As the daughter of the Kazekage, she had been expected by the people around her since she was a child, and she had her own responsibilities and obligations. Even if what awaits her when she returns is blame or even punishment, she must pay for the consequences of this matter. And if I can work hard to grow and remove the worries from Gaara's life, it wouldn't be a bad thing... "I still stick to my previous point of view, I will change everything!"
Temari looked at Naruto firmly, with an indescribable stubbornness in her eyes. "Until then... I'll trouble you, Gaara." First update today! The second update may be a little later, today is the birthday of the God of Wealth, there were firecrackers outside all night, my head is buzzing, let's talk about this group of people, they don't even make such a big fuss for their parents' birthdays... The second chapter may not be able to make it to twelve o'clock, but I will do it as soon as possible! (End of this chapter)
