Red Dust

"No, when did you become such an unconfident brother-in-law?"

That guy who even dared to dissuade the berserk Gaara from time to time, silently calling himself the number one puppet master of the new generation, actually showed such a weak state in front of his peers.

"You'll understand when you get hit!"

Kankuro murmured in annoyance.

In less than two years, Daimaru, who was slightly inferior to himself, can't even see his back now.

Although he was sent to deal with emergencies because he was familiar with Daimaru, to be honest, if his subordinates hadn't looked at him, Kankuro would have wanted to retreat.

The place where Orochimaru and the others are located is thousands of miles away from Shayin Village. Even for Daimaru, it is quite difficult to directly interfere with the distant battle through the rhythm of the subtle natural energy.

In a hurry, it is naturally impossible to hold back.

Ordinary villagers and mid-level and lower-level ninjas just instinctively felt discomfort in their hearts because of their limited perception ability.

A Jōnin like Kankuro, who is weaker than above, but more than enough below, can vaguely perceive the surging natural energy around him.

It's not that they are strong enough to use natural energy, but that Daimaru absorbs it with all his strength, and the nearby natural energy concentration rises sharply, and then is absorbed by Daimaru like a giant whale sucking water, just like a natural energy suddenly opened at the bottom of the sea. , like a bottomless abyss swallowing everything.

Kankuro, who was close at hand, was even more deeply touched. At the perceptual level, it was as if he was in the wind and waves, and there was a feeling that he was about to be torn to pieces at any time.

Even if he knew that this sense of threat was illusory, he was still afraid of being overwhelmed by the pressure.

"Although I don't know what you're fighting with, but just the aftermath of my inattentiveness makes me feel incompetent. This sense of panic is really bad!"

Daimaru put down the teacup, chuckled a few times, and explained slowly:

"The gap between us is not that big, you should worry too much! Natural energy and immortal chakra are a more efficient and more threatening force, and they suppress ordinary chakra in the order, just like a lion with a chakra. It preys on buffaloes for a living, but the buffaloes have the ability to kill lions even if they are ruthless. It is not because of lack of strength, but because herbivores have a natural fear of fierce predators, which makes them unable to resist the fangs and claws of lions..."

"You said that, but it made me even more frustrated. Can we no longer compete on the same stage?"

"Why are you so stupid? Go back and act like a spoiled brat with Temari, she might be happy to enlighten you!"

Temari, the eldest sister, waited a long time for the day when she was relied on by her younger brothers.

"She? Forget it, she'll only be laughed at. If you're in a hurry, you might even greet him with a fist..."

"Is it so violent? I feel that Temari's mood has been stable recently!"

"That's because she knows she can't beat you, and I can't. Even if I get beaten up, I don't dare to fight back..."

It turns out that it seems that it is still rare every day, and the understanding of the ecological relationship between the three siblings is a bit lacking.

But come to think of it, Temari was really the kind of girl who would throw her fists when she was in a hurry.

Kankuro's doubts are actually a major problem that most sand ninja puppet masters need to face after they reach the level of Shangnin.

The upper limit is too low!

Unless you embark on the road of researching forbidden arts like the red sand scorpion, it is difficult to rely on traditional methods to get closer.

In the past, the development of the field of puppet masters was still at the level of "skill", and there was no expansion of "dao". For example, a young puppet master like Kankuro, who was talented but didn't know where to go, could only rely on his experience in puppet manipulation. Kung fu, occasionally break through the bottleneck with a puppet with better performance.

But this is only quantitative accumulation, and there is basically no possibility of qualitative change.

The "Cradle Garden" plan initiated by Miss Sha Ye actually has the potential to be highly anticipated, but with the size of Shayin Village, it is actually difficult to supply.

The majestic male lion was malnourished when he was a child, and it will be difficult for him to grow up to the level of the king of the grassland in the future.

Without a little supplement from Daimaru, it may end up being a tasteless and unfortunate chicken rib.

"If you just want to find someone to complain, I don't care. As for the solution?"

Daimaru shook his head slightly.

"Among the classic puppets left by the red sand scorpion, the crow, the black ant and the mountain pepper fish, you only got the first two, and the mountain pepper fish can't be used proficiently, so it's too early to worry..."

If you ask Gaara to help you start in advance, maybe it will be possible, but because he is a brother, it is not easy to speak. Daimaru, a self-proclaimed brother-in-law, has the right degree of relationship.

"Temari is already the acting commander of the reorganized patrol ninja army..."

"Hey! Isn't that the general manager of the logistics reserve? You don't have much power, you have a lot of things to do, you have to give everything, and others have to help when they make mistakes..."

The function is roughly equivalent to the armed police plus urban management, the garrison department with the characteristics of Shayin Village, a department that is very close to the people, and will also go to the battlefield in an emergency.

This position is definitely hard work, and I can get some benefits to some extent. If you are a black heart, you can still get some oil and water, but Temari is Gaara’s sister. Everyone looks at it with a critical eye, and some things don’t work. Well done.

In the next few years, it will be the general trend for young people to take the lead, and Temari is just the beginning!

"That's also a senior cadre in the village. You don't look down on it, and some people are jealous!"

Kankuro was a little unconvinced. Although he understood that he was short-tempered, he was not suitable for leading the charge, but he was a little unbalanced.

Looking at the brother-in-law with "I want to make progress" written all over his face, Daimaru stroked his forehead, there are still many troubles to be solved on Gaara's side, and he is a little restless here.

Chapter 0614 Successor

"The task of the Shadow Guard is not enough for you to toss?"

It's not that Daimaru is perfunctory. Even if Gaara's position is relatively stable because of the unexpected supporter of Daimaru, the enemy will not change camps because the opposite is much stronger.

Assassination is an excellent way to protect Gaara's work, and it is not necessarily easy.

Gaara has not been in the position for a long time, and it seems that he is gradually on the right track, but to be honest, the Shadow Guards have not been completely cleaned from top to bottom. No one can guarantee whether there are ulterior motives.

"Why do you want to be a personal bodyguard? Haven't you thought about it? Do you really think that you are strong and have excellent guarding skills?"

"I see!"

Kankuro answered in a loud voice,

"Only I can be completely trusted!"

"So, what do you want, you can only temporarily fight for it within the scope of the Shadow Guard..."

The entire shadow guard team is roughly composed of a three-level structure. The ordinary shadow guard team consists of four to five people, led by a captain. Kankuro is now a captain, because of his outstanding strength, he is quite outstanding.

Three to five teams form a wing, the number of which hovers between 20 and [-] people throughout the year, and a staff officer who manages daily affairs is in the center to give orders.

The entire Shadow Guard is composed of three wing units, nominally led by Gaara.

Except for Kazekage, in theory, no one else can mobilize the Shadow Guard. However, there is a full-time defensive escort in Sandyin Village, which is different from the second-line troops led by Temari who check for leaks and fill vacancies. It is a serious garrison. ninja army.

In the past, it was led by Liang Ren, and since being implicated by the scorpion of the red sand, the elder Longsha was concurrently in charge.

The garrison has the right to ask the Shadow Guards to assist in the defense. Both are ninja troops specializing in defense, but there is a difference between favoring the entire village and favoring Kazekage.

When Fengying was strong, naturally no one dared to take the idea of ​​the Shadow Guard. Unfortunately, the fifth generation was vacant for more than a year. God knows what the name of Gaara's direct line troops has been infiltrated.

It is impossible to cleanse, not to mention whether Gaara has that prestige or not.

If it wasn't for such embarrassment, he wouldn't have dug up the most promising fighting genius under Daimaru's command, Hiroishi, and attacked Kankuro.

Half a year has passed, and it is difficult to take the most important force of the Shadow Guard in his hands. If Kankuro is messing around, it will be difficult.

"I didn't say no. Clearing spies, chasing down rebels, catching assassins and bounty hunters, I think I've done a good job. I just feel that I can play a bigger role, but I only bring four or five Personally busy..."

"Speak the truth..."

Daimaru waved his hand,

"Don't talk about these things! It's okay to lie to your sister. Do you really think that you can pass the test with me with such silly lies? Others may be dissatisfied because of their light power and too many trivial matters. You are the first generation. The young master of Feng Ying's family, the current brother of Feng Ying, is it necessary to compete with ordinary people for opportunities to improve?"

Protect Gaara, what is there in the future?

"All right!"

Kankuro said sullenly,

"Actually, I don't think the three staff officers of the Shadow Guards take Gaara seriously. The number of times they ask for Dragon Sand is far more than that of Gaara..."

"You want to get rid of one?"

Kankuro, who nodded earnestly, replied:

"At least make them feel a little crisis, don't join forces to fool Gaara!"

This is a real problem. The more advanced the ninja, the less interested in Gaara, and the new generation, who has high expectations, has not yet grown up.

However, the Shadow Guards are rather special, and Gaara should really take the initiative earlier.

Apparent obedience is not unacceptable, but if one is not obedient, problems may arise.

Those people can share wealth and wealth, and they will never share weal and woe with Gaara.

After thinking about it, Daimaru said to Kankuro:

"I'll think about it, don't participate in this matter, and perform the task with peace of mind. The rest of me and Gaara will decide!"

After sending Kankuro away,

Daimaru rested for a while, thinking about whether to do some push hands.

As Gaara thought, the power of time will overturn all opposing forces, but this is too slow.

What most people think is that Gaara is only 14 years old, and he can afford to wait, so it is right to make more decisions for him.

If there is no "Xiao" organization, there is no Fourth Ninja World War, this is really not a problem.

The subtle and complete transfer of power at the least cost is perfect for the sandy-hidden village, which has been hit many times.

But Daimaru is also selfish.

If you really want to remove Ichiao Morizuru from Gaara's body, it will be dangerous. It is absolutely impossible for Daimaru and Gaara to do it together. You have to get the support of many people, not the key. Always mess up.

In the eyes of the sand ninjas, the tailed beast is a dangerous thing, and it has brought a lot of pain to everyone, but if it is not, it is also the common property of the entire village. .

It would be great if Gaara's integration of the village's power could be accelerated a little bit, so that he could meet the Fourth Ninja World War in the best possible condition, and at the same time, he would take care of Ichiao Morizuru as soon as possible.

"The Shadow Guard and Kankuro may be a breakthrough! 』

Daimaru, who was thinking about it, waved his hand, and a puppet appeared in front of Daimaru. It was the puppet of the third generation of Kazekage.

Since years ago, this human puppet has been used by Daimaru, and it is a very good supplement to Daimaru's combat power.

However, since he gained the power of Mu Dun, cultivated into the immortal mode, and broke through the bottleneck, the effect of the magnetic sand iron secret technique has become smaller and smaller.

Whether it is flight ability or general attack methods, there are alternative methods, that is, the sealing effect of Magnetic Dun is not bad, but Daimaru has basically never used it.

How to break the seal, Daimaru is quite good at it, so he doesn't care much about applying the seal.

"Having "borrowed" for so long, it's time to find a suitable next master for him! 』

Anyway, it is also a powerful bloodline, and it will not become a tasteless, but it can be left in Daimaru's hands to eat ashes, it is better to let Kankuro take over.
