No one knows Hokage better than me

With Ji Zhixing's eyesight, he recognized the old man fishing at a glance. He was the puppet master Qianyo Granny.

Walking over with Gaara on her back, Granny Chiyo glanced at the two of them and continued fishing without saying a word.

Ji Zhixing placed Gaara on the bank of the river and asked calmly: "Are you Granny Chiyo?"

Chiyo glanced at Ji Zhixing again, then turned his head without comment.

Ji Zhixing thought that Qiandai didn't want to talk to him, and was just thinking about what to do. Suddenly Qiandai's mother-in-law asked softly: "How do you know my name?"

"I am an orphan from the Kingdom of Wind. When I was in the orphanage, I often heard the director mention you." Ji Zhixing's traditional arts have always worked.

Chiyo was so calm. She originally wanted to ask about the life experience of the strange child in front of her, and why he wanted to stay with the strategic weapon of Sunagakure Village.

Now that Ji Zhixing had reported his life experience first, she no longer planned to ask the following questions.

After the two were silent for a moment, Granny Chiyo asked: "Why are you here? Don't you know that this training ground has been closed?"

Ji Zhixing shook his head, "I don't know. Gaara and I came to explore, but we were assassinated by powerful ninjas."

When Ji Zhixing said this, he pretended to be depressed and lowered his head. Seeing this, Grandma Qianyo explained: "This place has been closed. If you just break in, it is normal for the ninjas in the village to treat you as a foreign enemy."

"But, that person knew Gaara and said that he was assassinated on the orders of the Kazekage-sama. Gaara is obviously the biological son of the Kazekage-sama."

Ji Zhixing said this deliberately, and it really caught Qiandai's attention.

Ji Zhixing continued to build momentum: "I heard from the director of the orphanage that Granny Qiandai has a grandson whom she loves very much. If it is a grandson, Granny Qiandai will not be willing to hurt him."

Chiyo seemed to have been provoked by someone, and was looking at Gaara with complicated eyes at the moment.

Yes, she has a grandson whom she loves very much, named Xie.

As a child, Scorpion was so lovable. Chiyo loved to hold him when she went shopping, so that people in the village would praise him when they saw Scorpion. As a grandmother, Chiyo felt very proud and happy.

It's a pity that war is always ruthless. Scorpion's parents died at the hands of "Konoha White Fang" in a war.

At first, Chiyo's mother-in-law was able to deceive Xie on the grounds that her son and daughter-in-law were out protecting the village and guarding the border. But as time went by, the sensible Scorpio guessed the tragedy of his parents' sacrifice.

Chiyo couldn't bear to see his grandson sad, so he taught the latter the art of puppetry. This made the young Scorpion no longer indulge in longing for his parents, but instead had something he liked to do.

But this was just a misunderstanding by Chiyo's mother-in-law. Xia devoted himself to studying puppetry in order to make human puppets of his father and mother for comfort.

But after all, a puppet is just cold wood without any emotions.

When Scorpion was immersed in the arms of his parents' puppet, the chakra line connecting the puppet was broken, and the cold puppet immediately fell to the ground, showing a terrifying expression.

This made Scorpion heartbroken, and at the same time he realized that the puppet was just a plaything and had no warm soul.

At that scene, Granny Chiyo was caught by Granny Chiyo who was standing outside the door and was about to give Scorpion a surprise. The latter's joyful mood suddenly dropped, and in the end she had no choice but to leave.

Scorpion's parents are dead, this is an indisputable fact. Even if she feels sorry for Scorpion, what can she do at this moment?

Later, Xie defected and fled the village. Grandma Qiandai blamed herself entirely for the incident and retired to seclusion, no longer interfering with everything in the village.

Now seeing the unconscious Gaara, Chiyo's mother-in-law's memories are replayed scene by scene.

Scorpio just lost his parents and eventually embarked on the path of rebellion.

As a one-tailed Jinchuuriki, Gaara not only lost his mother to childbirth when he was born, but his father failed to give him any warmth, and instead planned to kill his son many times.

In Gaara's heart, he should be in more pain than Scorpion.

Granny Chiyo sighed softly, touched Gaara's cheek, and murmured: "When Scorpio was a child, he also had red hair like this."

Ji Zhixing heard the change in Chiyo's tone, so he then asked: "Granny Chiyo, why did the Fourth Kazekage send someone to assassinate Gaara?"

Chiyo's mother-in-law sighed again and replied: "This child had a bad life and was treated as an experiment when he was born. Later, the Fourth Kazekage found out that the experiment failed, so he wanted to erase this dark history."

Chiyo avoided mentioning the tailed beast, and Ji Zhixing pretended to be confused and said: "The experimental product that Chiyo's mother-in-law mentioned refers to Gaara being used as a container to seal Shukaku. The person who just assassinated Gaara mentioned it." been."

Chiyo frowned. She didn't want to mention the tailed beasts, but unexpectedly, the ninjas of Sunagakure Village revealed the secrets of the village before performing the mission. The quality of ninjas was really deteriorating, and each generation was worse than the last.

Thinking of this, Chiyo no longer had any reservations and told the truth.

"Yes, Gaara does have a Shukaku sealed within his body."

"As a container, he cannot control the power of the tailed beast and may go berserk at any time. This shows that the Fourth Kazekage's experiment failed."

"Today's ninjas always like to bet their luck on others, which is really annoying."

Chiyo seemed angry and resentful. She claimed that as an elder, she would never joke with her child's life.

Although the Fourth Kazekage is putting the overall situation first, from Gaara's perspective, he is a complete scumbag

This kind of person becomes a wind shadow. On the surface, he has great feelings, but in fact, he is just a castle in the air and cannot withstand any test.

Granny Chiyo admitted that she was pedantic, but she couldn't do it under any circumstances if she wanted to become someone who ignored family ties.

It was precisely because of her disdain for the twisted thinking of ninjas that Chiyo's mother-in-law refused several requests from senior officials of Sunagakure Village to return to the ninja world.

Looking at the look in Granny Chiyo's eyes, Ji Zhixing was secretly happy and continued to add fuel to the fire: "Gaara is still young, so isn't it normal for him not to have the power to control Shukaku?"

"When he becomes a powerful ninja, I want to control Shukaku, and even become friends with Shukaku. It's not impossible, right?"

When Ji Zhixing expressed his opinion, Chiyo's mother-in-law had no emotions in her heart. She just shook her head slightly and said, "When Gaara's own power exceeds that of the tailed beast, it will be possible to control Shukaku."

"But I've never heard of a Jinchuriki and a tailed beast being friends."

As soon as Granny Qiandai finished speaking, Ji Zhixing wanted to refute with the example of Kirabi. But as he thought it would reveal his identity too much, he didn't say anything.

"But the reason why ninjas are ninjas is because they can do things that ordinary people can't."

"Since the tailed beast has an independent mind, I think it is not impossible to become friends if we get along with it as an equal."

"Hahaha, this kind of thing is really not something a pedantic person like me can say."

Chiyo smiled like a child, which made Ji Zhixing feel happy.

"Then why did the Fourth Kazekage not give Gaara a chance to grow up and conclude that he was a failed experiment at such a young age?" Ji Zhixing then asked.

Granny Chiyo saw the fish floating on the water surface and quickly raised the fishing rod, only to find that what she caught was just a small fish.

Granny Chiyo pulled the fishing line and slowly removed the hook from the fish's mouth. She said: "No one wants to wait for the fish to grow up because they don't want to take risks. There is more than one person who covets the fish in this lake. You If you release a small fish, how do you know that it will live to be a big fish and will not be taken away by the next fisherman?"

When Chiyo said this, he released the little fish. The little fish swayed in the river, turned three times in front of Chiyo's mother-in-law, and then swam to the bottom of the water.

Ji Zhixing understood Qiandai's meaning and also understood Qiandai's position.

She is the one who is willing to let go of the little fish, that is, the one who is willing to give Gaara a chance to grow.
