Naruto: I open a pet shop in the Ninja world.

Naruto narrowed his eyes and was still out of the situation.

Seeing that he didn't recognize Chi Qing, Gaara simply didn't say anything.

At this time, a team of Sound Ninja jumped out and tried to grab the scroll.

But when he saw Gaara on Naruto, he was stunned and sweating profusely: "Sorry...sorry to bother you..."

"Stop." Gaara's hoarse voice rang out, causing all the Sound Ninjas to stop.

"Yes, is there anything I can tell you about?" The leader lowered his head and looked submissive, for fear of angering Gaara.

What a joke! They saw the one-sided massacre before!

Gaara crossed his arms, "Take it out, and get out."

As for what to take out, the Sound Ninja of course did not ask any questions. They placed their scrolls on the tree trunk and ran away without stopping.

Gaara controlled the sand and rolled the scroll from the tree trunk over and asked Naruto: "What do you want?"

Naruto looked at Sasuke: "Hey~ Which one are we looking for, the sky? Or the earth?"

The scroll was given to Sasuke for safekeeping: "Earth."

Sasuke's eyes were still looking in the direction the two men had left.

That was a speed that even his Sharingan couldn't see clearly...those two people were very strong!

Sasuke clenched his fists unwillingly.

"Here you go." Gaara's sand placed the "Book of Earth" in Naruto's hands.

"Wow~ Aren't you going to keep it for yourself, little Ai Ni?" Naruto took it in his hand and touched the flexible sand. The sand flowed through Naruto's fingers like water, and it felt cool and comfortable.

Gaara shook his head, "Our team has already collected them."

"Then I'll take it without hesitation~" Naruto waved the scroll in his hand towards his partner: "Mission accomplished!"

Xiaoying held her forehead with her hand, not knowing what to say.

Is it really okay for someone else to help complete it like this?

Sakura looked at Sasuke.

Sasuke nodded, "It's only the first day, so we don't have to bother looking for it and it saves energy. There will be people coming to snatch it later, so let's conserve our energy for now."

"Okay, since Sasuke said so." Sakura walked over and thanked him: "Thank you Gaara, you really helped a lot."

Gaara simply nodded calmly and said truthfully, "No need to thank me, I didn't do anything."

He looked at Naruto, "I'm leaving now. I'll see you in a few days."

"Okay~" Naruto grabbed Gaara's hand: "Be careful!"

"…I will." Gaara was not used to this kind of skin-to-skin contact yet.

Gaara said goodbye to Naruto and the others and caught up with Chi Qing.

Chi Qing's fight was over by this time, and the two sat facing each other.

Orochimaru's clothes were covered in dust and had bruises.

After all, he wasn't really serious. Orochimaru was inexplicably tolerant of Chi Qing, so he just let him vent his anger and was just defending himself unilaterally.

Chi Qing also noticed this and stopped when he saw that it was almost time.

He was helping to heal his wounds, muttering, "How dare you? According to seniority, Naruto should call you uncle-master. Is it appropriate for you to bully him like this?"

"His father is Jiraiya's apprentice, and has nothing to do with me." Orochimaru sneered.

"How can it be unrelated? You and Sensei Jiraiya are both disciples of Grandpa Sarutobi, so you have a close relationship." Chi Qing stopped, there was not even a broken spot on Orochimaru's body.

"Brother Chi Qing." Gaara approached only after seeing that they had finished.

"Xiao Ai~Did you come from Naruto and the others?" Chi Qing brushed the dust off Gaara's clothes.

Gaara nodded obediently, "Yeah, there was an attack from the Sound Ninja just now, and now they have collected the scrolls."

"Heh, the One-Tail Jinchuriki is acting like a good kid in front of you." Orochimaru probably knew the reason behind this, and his eyes became even more scorching as he looked at Chi Qing: "When will you be free to cooperate with me in the experiment? We can't get much breakthrough just from blood."

"Well... let's talk about it later. I'm busy recently~" Chi Qing blinked. He was indeed busy recently as a lot of things were happening.

"What a shame." Orochimaru did not force it: "I am also interested in the tailed beasts."

"That's impossible. To be honest, the tailed beasts are just manifestations of chakra. They don't have blood for you to draw."

"There are ways to extract chakra." Orochimaru entered thinking mode.
