Naruto: The hardworking model who realizes his dream is actually the white moonlight of the ninja wo

The Sand Village is not a very wealthy village.

But it is definitely the richest city in the Kingdom of Wind except for the city where the daimyo is located.

Well, poverty is a national issue.

Even if the ninjas of Konoha wandered, they would not be able to wander to here!

Yashamaru was puzzled.

It was really strange, being so close - it was possible that we would be caught the next day.

Even if you want to be a rebel ninja, you should go to a place like the Rain Country where all kinds of people mix!

Apparently Gaara couldn't think that much right now.

After bringing the person back, his mind went blank.

Will Yashamaru reject me?

Will my father find out?

In fact, none of Gaara's worries came to pass.

They were strangled in their cradles by an unknown force.

Yashamaru...

I love Rome repeating the young man's name silently, but I don't have the courage to say it out loud.

He actually knew in his heart whether he had acted impulsively or not.

So they chose to lock the man in the house first - the man didn't seem to have any intention of resisting.

The process of waiting for results is always long.

But this is not aimless waiting.

Gaara quietly hugged the toy in his hand.

It makes sense.

"what about your friends?"

"Gaara."

Yashamaru had just returned at this time, and his mind was in the Kazekage's office, so he couldn't find it for a while.

He watched Gaara bring people back using sand.

But now in the empty living room, only Gaara was there.

Next to it were Temari's small fan and Kankuro's puppet to play with.

I can’t see the people I want to see.

The boy with white eyes is not here.

"He's in the...room."

Gaara's voice was hesitant, and seemed like he was begging for something.

Don't take him away.

Please keep him.

How could Yashamaru not hear Gaara's silent request.

But he didn't plan to do anything about the Byakugan ninja now.

By the way, in Gaara's heart, he is a person who can do something?

"He looks very weak, does he need something to eat?"

Yashamaru's choice allows him to carry out his image of a gentle and kind person to the end.

The young man's voice lifted the alarm, and Gaara finally let go of his worries.

Doing a ghost thing is one thing, but completing the ghost thing is another price.

"Then I will...go and call him now..."

The child walked slowly towards the room on the far right with excitement.

This is the guest room, and it was also my mother's former room.

However, the three children who had lost their mother didn't want each other to live with them, and in the end, the room became a guest room.

Maybe Gaara has also come out.

Yashamaru looked at the child's back as he left and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Come out?

maybe.

The houses in Sand Village are generally made of sand.

There are flying sand and rocks here all year round, and even few animals can survive.

All I can say is that the residents here are indeed very tenacious.

Neji fainted halfway through.

According to common sense, ninjas need to be extra vigilant about fainting.

But Neji, who was wrapped in sand, didn't.

Even if I am caught, even if I am killed.

It's just one more time.

Maybe we can find a way to return to the previous timeline.

When the boy opened his eyes, the sand and dirt on his body had been cleaned off.

There was still a little chakra left, and one could tell at a glance who was doing good deeds.

The walls are made of sand mixed with stones. They are said to be windproof, but they are probably not very waterproof.

It's dry here all year round, and it doesn't look like there will be water.

"002."

"Host, I am here."

"System 002 Warm Reminder..."

The sound of half of 002 was mixed with various indistinguishable noises.

Maybe that's not noise.

Neji wasn't using his ears to identify 002's voice.

Instead, use your brain directly.

At this point, all the signals sent by 002 will be received by Neji without missing a word.

It's not noise.

It is the superposition of countless sounds after being accelerated or decelerated.

It was like the infinite electricity that had been stuck before.

So, 002 is stuck now?

In any case, Neji couldn't hear what 002 was saying now.

"Host, I am here."

After that long and ambiguous voice passed by, what was left was the sentence that Neji was familiar with.

"When can you go back?"

"You have achieved your goal."

Ningji said unhappily - everything was ready except for the east wind, all the plans were made, but suddenly the system brought us here!

Even the speed of chakra recovery has become only half of before.

"002 Friendly reminder, it is detected that the current space has a higher authority unit than the system."

"The system is temporarily unable to gain control."

"Host, please wait for a moment and be patient."

This is different from what the system said at the beginning.

"Higher authority?"

Is there anything else that is more powerful than the system capabilities? The answer is yes.

But what Ningji hadn't expected was that there was actually a competitive relationship between the two.

Just its existence will prevent the system from working properly.

But 002 quickly rejected Neji's idea.

"The other party used a higher authority to forcibly shut down the time transfer capability of this system."

In other words, all the dominant power is now in the hands of the "higher authority holder".

As long as the other party doesn't let me go, failure of my mission is imminent.

What a bolt from the blue.

Neji's breath caught in his chest - even though this mission was not a must.

But have all my previous efforts been wasted just because the other party said indifferently, "Close the permission"?

He thought about the many possibilities of his mission failing.

But I haven't thought of this one.

He is still like a bird in a cage, but if his owner is unhappy, he will starve to death in the cage.

Even the corpses will rot in the cages.

He couldn't open the cage because he was not a smart enough bird.

The clever little bird can open the cage by itself.

"You're awake..."

That was when Neji was feeling melancholy - thinking about how to become a smart little bird.

The child pushed the door open, holding a toy.

Gaara was really small at that time, much smaller than when Neji saw him.

"Do you need something to eat..."

Facing Neji, Gaara didn't know what to say.

But similarly, facing Gaara, Neji didn't know how to deal with him.

The first time they met was during the Chunin Exams.

Later, it was a chance encounter.

The next time they met was during the Chunin Exams.

When it comes to what kind of person Gaara is, Neji can only give a vague idea.

He is actually a very gentle, kind person, but he has a tragic fate.

Overall, it can be described as pitiful.

But Neji couldn't completely let go of what Gaara had done.

poor person must have something mean.

Every hateful person will eventually become pitiful.

Gaara has been a hateful person, but he has also been a pitiful person.

Neji could forgive Gaara for torturing Rock Lee half to death that day - after all, even Lee himself didn't say anything.

But that doesn't mean he can forget.

What would happen if Lady Tsunade wasn't there at that time?

What would happen if Lady Tsunade was helpless at that time?

Ningci didn't dare to think further.

There are not so many ifs in this world.

Fortunately, there are not so many ifs in this world.

But he was also the one who helped during the second Chunin Exam.

As a ninja of Konoha, this is his responsibility and his obligation.

And Gaara himself is also excellent and worthy of the word "appreciation".

But now, he is just Hyuga Neji.

Even if they threw him in front of Hyuga Hizashi and Hiashi, they would only come to the conclusion that such a person does not exist.

After all, Hyuga Neji is now a bird that has just been put in a cage, waiting for misfortune to come again.

What attitude should we adopt towards Gaara? This is indeed a good question.

The ease I felt last time completely disappeared at this moment - meeting someone and getting along with someone are two completely different concepts.

"Ah... My name is Gaara..."

The child is still shy - maybe he is still afraid of strangers.

If you are afraid of strangers, why do you take me away?

Neji didn't know, but now was not the time to think about that.

"Nora, my name is Nora..."

"I have no home and no name."

"But they'll call me Nora."

When you don’t know what to do, wearing a mask is the best option.

This is something Teacher Kai couldn’t teach, a dishonest child.

I don't know when, but Neji learned skills that he couldn't learn before.

Whether it's dealing with people or controlling chakra.

Add to that danger detection, combat skills - many areas that were never thought of before have been supplemented.

Is he still himself?

Even if I chose to sacrifice myself in the Fourth World War, I might not dare to admit it.

Neji thought to himself with some self-mockery as he pulled his body out from under the covers.

He was still a little unsteady and his movements were a little shaky, but he was steady on the sand.

It’s a really useful ability.

"careful..."

The next thing to do is to say thank you.

"Thank you for helping me..."

Although the child in front of him was only about half his height, Neji still thanked him sincerely.

He knew what Gaara wanted to ask most.

Yes, they've met before.

But the goodbye I said at that time definitely didn’t mean now!

Thank you, repay the favor, and then...

There is something Hyuga Neji wants to do.

Even though something bad might happen, he still wanted to give it a try.

"Gaara..."

Just as Neji was thinking about how to respond, another person squeezed out from behind the door.

A blond young man he didn't recognize.

Wearing the Sand Village's forehead protector and the most basic jonin attire.

According to known information, Gaara has been a lonely and insecure child since childhood.

There are only a handful of people who can get close to Gaara.

The most famous among them is Gaara's uncle.

This was the last straw that pushed Gaara completely into the abyss.

"Yashamaru..."
