Gaara lay on the ground, unable to believe that he failed after only one move.

Gaara moved his fingers, trying to mobilize his chakra, but failed?

Even the absolute defense collapsed... Damn it!

Gaara's eyes gradually became crazy, and he roared in his heart:

Impossible, I am the strongest, and my existence will not disappear.

Only by continuously killing people will the world remember my existence, and failure is absolutely not allowed.

Naruto stood in front of Gaara and said helplessly:

"I told you, let's go to Uncle Ichiraku's place and have a good chat while eating."

"I have to get a beating"

"Hey, why bother."

This time, Gaara truly felt the double pain of body and soul, and it was a very uncomfortable feeling.

To people other than himself, what am I?

A monster, a person that everyone wants dead... Gaara.

But what is the purpose of my existence?

If I die, will there really be anyone in the world who will care about me and feel sad for me?

Mom...

The strength displayed by Naruto made Gaara feel powerless.

He didn't understand why this boy who looked very stupid and wanted to drag him to eat ramen could burst out with such great energy.

Gaara lay dejectedly on the cold ground, with a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.

His eyes were empty and confused, staring blankly at the sky, with only waves of sadness in his heart.

The pride he once had was gone, leaving only his brows tightly furrowed, as if his heart was being entangled and pulled by countless thoughts.

"Naruto, are you okay?"

"Naruto……"

…………

At this time, Naruto's companions hurried over.

They surrounded Naruto and asked about his condition with concern.

Those anxious greetings were like sharp blades, deeply hurting Gaara's heart.

Gaara looked at this scene, and an indescribable bitterness surged in his heart.

Gaara silently asked himself in his heart: The path I chose, the pursuit of so-called strength, but in the end it was such a miserable defeat.

And he, there are so many people who care about him, this is the warmth that I will never have.

Am I really wrong?

What have I always insisted on...

Gaara's body trembled slightly, falling into unprecedented confusion and pain, in the abyss of darkness, unable to find a way out.

Sasuke rushed to Gaara with a kunai in his hand like a gust of wind, and the kunai flashing with cold light was about to stab Gaara fiercely.

However, almost in an instant, Naruto flashed in front of Sasuke at a speed beyond ordinary people's imagination. He also held a kunai in his hand, accurately and quickly blocking the fatal blow.

Kunai collided with kunai, making a sharp sound and bursting with sparks.

Naruto stared at Sasuke in front of him with an extremely serious look, his eyes were full of unquestionable determination.

Everyone was at a loss as to what to do with this sudden scene.

After a moment of stalemate, Sasuke finally slowly put down the kunai in his hand.

"Naruto, this is your prey. You can handle it."

Sasuke originally wanted to kill Gaara before leaving. The tailed beast in his body is definitely a huge safety hazard for Konoha and Naruto. As a traitor, he can bear the anger and revenge from the Sand Village for killing Gaara.

But the premise of this is to respect Naruto's choice.

Naruto sighed helplessly when he looked at Sasuke's eyes.

His eyes were as cold as before the last defection. It seems that you still chose the path of Orochimaru.

That's good. Orochimaru is so powerful now.

"Sasuke has never been a prey in my heart. Like you, he is my most important partner."

"No matter which of you has gone astray, I will bring you back safely."

"Boring."Sasuke said coldly and turned away.

Gaara stared blankly at Naruto who was standing in front of him, and complicated emotions surged in his heart again.

At this moment, it seemed as if time had stopped, and everything around him became extremely quiet.

Only the figures of him and Naruto left a deep mark on this land.

Companions? I can also have companions……

"Naruto, how can you go against Sasuke for a monster? Do you know that this is stupid?"

"That guy is very dangerous. If he goes to Konoha to cause trouble again, will you be able to take the responsibility?"

Sakura said angrily, not intending to pay attention to Naruto's reply, and went to chase Sasuke.

"Sasuke’s back is so handsome, but… why is he getting farther and farther away from me? Hey, Sasuke, wait for me."Karin hurriedly trotted after Sasuke. Shikamaru saw that Naruto and Gaara must have a story, so he asked everyone to leave first and leave them some space alone.

Yes, I am a monster. How can a monster really have friends?

At this moment, Gaara felt that no one in life seemed to really love him, and no one would care whether he existed or not. A deep self-doubt overwhelmed him like a tide.

At this moment, Naruto slowly squatted down, stretched out his hand, and gently slapped Gaara on the face.

The crisp sound of the slap was particularly clear in the silent air.

Gaara's eyes gradually focused, his thoughts were pulled back to reality, and the whole person woke up.

In fact, Naruto felt the same way as Gaara in his heart.

As a Jinchūriki, he also suffered all kinds of cold treatment when he was a child, but he had Teacher Iruka.

Thanks to his father who loved him deeply, he took away the evil side of the Nine-Tails when he was sealed.

This allowed him to become a"relatively" stable Jinchūriki.

On the other hand,���Gaara, the Jinchūriki, is a"failed product".

The tailed beast Shukaku in his body is at risk of going berserk at any time.

His existence is bound to be feared by Kage-level figures.

Even his father, the Kazekage, once ordered Gaara to"kill".

Gaara is suffering from pain that he should not endure at his age.

Growing up in such an environment, how can he be normal?

The final result is that he gradually becomes a"killing tool".

Gaara has become selfish, angry, and hateful.

"Actually, your father is dead."

Naruto's calm voice broke the silence between them.

Gaara was stunned for a moment, but did not show any strong sadness:"Dead?"

Naruto continued:"He is already dead and cannot die again. If nothing unexpected happens, he has been made into a puppet."

"But these are not the main point, the main point is that you Sand Village is now leaderless."

Gaara didn't understand what Naruto meant, the loss of the Kazekage didn't seem to have much to do with him.
