Naruto Flower Stem

Chapter 27

Upon hearing this, the boy's beautiful eyes were full of hope again.He laughed, not feeling like this for a long, long time.He smiled brightly.

It's just that the trick of fate is really hard to accept.

I don't believe you are a monster.It was just a naive thought when I was a child, if I changed to now, what I should say is "I believe in you".

Or "We're companions, so we'll always be there for you."

Believe in you, so be your companion, so stay by your side forever, let you feel the meaning of your existence.Can live happily.You will no longer frown all the time, and you will not see boiling killing intent from your blue eyes.

In a coma, I seemed to see the back of Naruto who was desperate.

See him fight against all odds.Fight for your companions.

There are so many shadow clones, Naruto, is this really you...you have become so powerful.

Being encased in sand can also perform psychic spells.

A giant toad that transformed into a fox together with Naruto.Gaara, that huge hostile monster on the opposite side is you, right?I finally see what the monster inside you looks like.But I am not afraid.

They are fighting, they are fighting to protect.

I was so confused that I didn't know if all this was real or just my hallucination.

It can only be said that if this battle is real, then it is indeed a very fierce battle.

The huge pressure on the chest suddenly disappeared.

As I felt free to breathe, memories came flooding back.

"Gaara!" I called Gaara's name loudly, and suddenly opened my eyes.

And Gaara at this moment.Lying in a clearing under a tree.Naruto lay next to him, but still didn't lose consciousness.

The shackles of the sand disappeared, and I fell weakly on the tree trunk. Sakura hadn't woken up yet, and fell weakly, but was fortunately caught by Sasuke in good time and placed below.He hesitated for a moment, then jumped down.

Is it over... Gaara.

Naruto, he is very powerful, right?
So you... lost outright.

At this time, Gaara was lying motionless on the ground, looking at Naruto who was trying to climb towards him with his head tilted.

Why is he so strong... He is obviously injured, and obviously has no physical strength.Why, he can still crawl towards him, that look.that look...

Gaara doesn't understand.

He closes his eyes.Painful childhood memory.Called a monster by everyone, hated by everyone.Those people looked at him with disgust.Why hate him, he did nothing wrong.Just because there is a monster sealed in the body.treat him like a monster...

In this world, is he not needed by anyone...

Looking at the powerful boy in front of him, Gaara panicked, "Don't...don't come here!"

The boy moved tirelessly.His face was full of scars and he still didn't give up.

"The pain of being alone is very uncomfortable..." Naruto raised his head, his blue eyes shining like jewels.Gaara's heart was deeply touched by the emotion contained in those eyes.

There was an incomprehensible gleam in his eyes.Naruto said silently, "I don't know why...I can understand your feelings very well. But I already...have someone to cherish..." His tone suddenly became firm, "People who are important to me...I will not let you hurt them!"

"Otherwise... even if I have to kill you, I will stop you!"

"Why..." Gaara looked at Naruto, "Why do you do this for other people..."

"Because they rescued me from the hell of being alone. And acknowledged my existence, they... are my important companions!"

Companion...that word again.

Gaara looked up.

When did the sky above get so blue?Why have I never noticed it... The pure white clouds are floating gently, and the kind of shimmer that they emit seems to be able to illuminate people's mood.

The shadow of that person appeared in front of him.He smiled, his tone gentle and soothing.Such a nostalgic voice.

"Emotion is the idea of ​​wanting to sacrifice for the important people around you and protect them with compassion."

Yashamaru... The feelings you mentioned are what they are now.

Just like Uzumaki Naruto, he becomes powerful because of his feelings.So... you can persevere like this, you can fight for others to this point without giving up.

"Feelings..." He murmured this strange and warm word thoughtfully, "Is that why he is so strong..."

"Naruto, that's enough." Sasuke jumped down and stood beside Naruto.Carefully lift Naruto up.

"I. Gaara..." A thin voice called out to him.

I resisted the pain and powerlessness all over my body, and forced myself to finally come to him.

But.He looked so weak.

Sasuke supported Naruto and looked at me.There was an elusive emotion in the eyes, but I didn't see it.

"Gara." I sat beside him, trying to gather chakra and inject it into his body. "Gara..." I kept calling his name.Distressed to help him up.

You are finally back……

You are finally... not the Gaara I didn't know anymore...

I closed my eyes in pain, the continuous loss of chakra made me feel dizzy.

"That's enough... the peduncle..." Gaara's voice was weak.My hand was gently taken away by him, and the gathered Chakra immediately dispersed. "You don't have much chakra anymore..."

There was a warm feeling in my heart.Burning like a slight flame.

He is worried about me...

For a long time, he looked at me with calm eyes, and he asked, "Stalk... what is... a companion?"

Eh?I froze.

Gaara...you know what, I never thought that one day you would ask me such a question.

I smiled exhaustedly, wiped the blood on his face, and said softly, "Idiot, I am your companion..."

The plan to destroy Konoha failed this time.

However, Konoha's third-generation Hokage grandfather lost his life because he used the forbidden technique ghoul ban in the battle with Orochimaru, and the price Orochimaru paid was: losing his hands and all ninjutsu.

This is probably retribution.

After returning to the Land of Winds, Mr. Maji and some other ninjas from Sand Hidden found the body of the Fourth Kazekage-sama in a hidden valley.Only then did I finally understand that the instigator behind all this is Orochimaru.

He first killed Kazekage-sama, then pretended to be Kazekage, gave orders, and teamed up with Otogashi to attack Konoha.In fact, this is not Kazekage-sama's original intention, but Orochimaru's conspiracy.

As a result, Shayin immediately announced a full surrender to Konoha, and the two countries reconciled.

In fact, this is the perfect ending, isn't it?

In the future, there is no need to worry about the fate of being destined to become an enemy.Konoha's companions.
