Pirate: I open a wooden escape on the top

Chapter 178 A friend who is the same as me but different
After Eddie and the others left, Temari and Kankuro appeared here, with weapons in their hands, and now it was their turn to look at Naruto vigilantly.

But Gaara has no physical strength now, but his deterrence against opponent Ju and Kankuro is still so strong.

After repelling the two of them, his eyes were neither fierce nor murderous looking at Naruto.

For a long time, neither of them spoke, the atmosphere was very silent, and finally Gaara broke the silence.

"He said... your name is Naruto, right?"

Hearing this, Naruto, who didn't know what to say, lifted his spirits instantly, and he said loudly with a smile that seemed to be able to illuminate all darkness.

"Whoooo!"

"My name is Uzumaki Naruto, and I swear to become Hokage!"

To become Hokage?
Obviously we are the same kind of people, obviously we are all monsters, but why...

Why is this person in front of me, why is he so bright, but I am so dark...

Thinking of this, Gaara couldn't help showing a sad expression.

But looking at such a bright Naruto, Gaara didn't know why, and the corner of his mouth also showed a smile with him.

But Naruto's words at this time made him laugh even more happily.

"Hey, do you want to be my friend?"

friend?

After stopping to say this, Gaara was taken aback.

friend…

Do I deserve to have friends?

He didn't dare to think that this kind of thing could really happen to him, recalling the tragic experience when he was a child.

Everyone wants to hurt me, everyone is afraid of me and avoids me, even if I want to actively make friends, no one will play with me.

Father wants to kill me, everyone wants to hurt me.

While they are afraid of me, they need a tail of strength at the same time...

Am I really worthy?

Gaara fell into deep self-doubt.

Seeing that Gaara stopped talking, and now he was looking down again, Naruto walked up to him carelessly, patted him on the shoulder, and asked again with a smile that was always full of hope and light.

"Hey, so you want to be my friend?"

Hearing Naruto's words, Gaara looked at him in bewilderment, but still didn't answer.

Seeing that Gaara didn't answer for a long time, Naruto stood up.

Gaara, who saw Naruto standing up, suddenly panicked for some reason. He wanted to agree to be friends with him, but he didn't know how to say it.

And just when Gaara thought Naruto was going to leave, he didn't expect him to say such a sentence.

I just heard Naruto say: "Since you don't answer, then I will take it as you agreed."

Said Naruto stretched out his fist, wanting to touch Gaara.

Looking at the smiling Naruto, and at his outstretched fist, Gaara smiled.

He stretched out his hand to meet Naruto's fist two by two, and then smiled back: "Okay."

"Yosie! Then we're friends now!!"

Naruto smiled happily, after Gaara has been through so much suffering, now he can finally smile happily.

He looked at Naruto closely, as if he wanted to imprint his appearance in his heart.

friend…

I finally have friends too! !
Then, the two who became friends began to share their stories with laughter and laughter, just like old friends.

Of course, Naruto is talking and Gaara is listening.

After all, Gaara was in too much pain when he was a child, and he didn't want to share his pain with his new friends.

So he has been listening to Naruto telling his story.

Even so, the smiles on Gaara and Naruto's faces never faded.

And Eddie, who was watching Naruto and Gaara from a distance, also smiled when he saw this.

After lighting a local cigarette, Eddie thought to himself: As expected of the prince's mouth, he is strong.

If he were to replace himself, the only way to go would be to 'convince people with virtue' first.

Well, convincing people with virtue, is Wude also a virtue?

A long time has passed, Sasuke and Sakura are already kicking stones bored, Naruto is coming back.

Looking at the smiling Naruto, Eddie also smiled and asked: "How is it, Naruto, isn't that kid not bad?"

Hearing Eddie's words, Naruto nodded frantically: "Yeah, Gaara is a very good person, we are friends now!"

Sure enough, Naruto's personality charm has been reflected since childhood.

But what is more obvious is the expressions of Sasuke and Sakura.

They stared blankly at the smiling Naruto, but didn't say anything.

It's just Sasuke, he feels a little upset that he didn't officially complete his Chunin exams.

Seeing such a proud Sasuke, Eddie touched his thorns, and then led the three of them back towards Konoha.

Of course I have to go back. Now that the matter here has been resolved, I will report it as a ninja leading the team. Although I said that I will not be a ninja at the third generation, it is reasonable to set out a mission to protect my nephew.

And now the third generation doesn't seem to be able to control himself anymore. After being out for so long, it seems that the third generation has now died with the first, second generation and Orochimaru's two hands.

Thinking of this, Eddie glanced at Naruto.

If this kid knew the news that the third generation had died in battle, he would probably be depressed for a few days.

Several people continued on their way, and they met Asma and others on the road. After the two sides exchanged information about the enemies they encountered and the battle process, they rushed back in the direction of Konoha.

At the same time, there was another group of people rushing back to their village, and that was Gaara and the others.

Although the tailed beast form was released after being hypnotized by Eddie, Gaara is still physically exhausted and looks weak.

Kankuro and Temari have never seen such a weak Gaara.

But looking at Gaara's smiling face from being taken to the present, Temari and Kankuro were a little surprised, or scared?
Anyway, it is always some inexplicable feeling, this feeling is like Gaara has changed into a different person.

After leaving there for a long time, Kankuro looked at Gaara who was still smiling on his back, gritted his teeth and mustered up the courage to ask him.

"My Gaara...you...what's the matter with you, why have you been... laughing all the time?"

Kankuro stumbled as he spoke, gritted his teeth and said the last laughing word, as if he had exhausted all his strength.

He waited for Gaara's answer in a cold sweat, as if waiting for the final judgment.

Temari also looked at Gaara with a terrifying face, and was also waiting for his answer.

They really have never seen Gaara like this before.

But the trial Kankuro imagined did not come, and Gaara behind his back was still smiling, as if he was thinking of something beautiful.

But Gaara like this makes them feel even more scary, because the Gaara they know is not like this at all, and the word "beautiful" seems to be insulated from him.

But Gaara doesn't care what they think, just listen to him whispering behind Kankuro's back.

"Oh, nothing, it's just that I've made friends."

"A friend who is the same as me, but different from me..."
