Chapter 050: Gaara vs. Naruto and Sasuke! (Seeking Data Support)

Gaara, with his large gourd on his back, seemed to be targeting the harmless Kitahara Kaede. However, just as he was about to appear, Naruto and Sasuke, who were standing next to Kitahara Kaede, simultaneously attacked.

Then, their movements were synchronized.

The two attacked and threw punches at the same time.

As soon as Gaara's body appeared, he was simultaneously sent flying by a well-coordinated punch from the two!

Bang!

Gaara's body was embedded directly into the wall beside him.

"!!!" x2

Temari and Kankuro, the Sand Village genin who had come with Gaara, widened their eyes in shock.

This was the first time they had ever seen... Gaara get sent flying.

Although... Gaara's specialty wasn't taijutsu, but rather the use of sand, But...

Gaara was sent flying before he could even start using his sand!

Keep in mind, Gaara had undertaken S-rank missions alone, and had killed over a dozen Jonin by himself!

And then...

He was simply... sent flying like that!

Thump!

Gaara's body was deeply embedded in the wall.

But it was only for a moment. Gaara's body rolled down, and he pressed his hand against the ground.

Although his forehead had a slight bleeding from hitting the wall, there was no anger on his face. Instead, he smiled.

The smile was not quite normal.

It had a slightly rampaging, manic tendency.

"Interesting!" Gaara opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"I thought no one among my peers could defeat me."

"But now..."

"This is truly interesting!"

Gaara reached behind him with his hand and unfastened the half-man-tall gourd of sand he carried on his back.

Sand flowed down with a shuuu sound.

Sasuke and Naruto exchanged a glance.

"This sand is like it's alive," Naruto commented.

"But it's good for hitting people," Sasuke replied. "Someone who attacks without a word... needs to be taught a good lesson!"

Sasuke said this and winked at Naruto.

Naruto instantly understood.

This meant... they could test their current level against genin from outside the village.

So...

"Konoha Style!"

"Sexy Jutsu!"

While Temari and the others thought Gaara would finally use his sand and the opponents would become nervous, Sasuke and Naruto's excitement actually spiked.

And as Sasuke fought with Gaara, Kitahara Kaede just stood there watching them.

"Temari—" Kankuro noticed Kitahara Kaede.

"Mm..." The village beauty from the neighboring village lightly nodded.

Gaara had rushed towards this boy earlier, likely because this boy was the weakest.

And he wanted to provoke him.

After all... their purpose for coming here was ordered by their father, the Fourth Kazekage.

It was to destroy Konoha.

So... they had to make a display first.

They wanted to find a soft persimmon to crush.

But they hadn't expected the two people beside this boy to be such tough opponents, capable of stopping Gaara and sending him flying.

Konoha actually had people with such taijutsu skills.

The skill level of this taijutsu... it's definitely not a regular Genin, so Chunin... no, it might even be a Jonin!

She thought Gaara was already a genius, but Konoha has this many geniuses too?

And two of them at once!

"Interesting, very interesting!"

Gaara's sand began to move, but he found it difficult to catch Sasuke and Naruto.

Instead, he himself was hit from time to time.

However, his body was already covered in a sand armor. Each time he was hit by a punch, a piece of the armor would fall off, vaguely revealing his true body.

Gaara had also been hit once.

He had a wound on his face.

But.

He only grew more excited.

Because.

This was more interesting than the S-rank mission he had previously undertaken!

It had been a very, very long time since he had been injured.

Which is to say...

"Gotcha!"

His sand instantly covered the ground, then grabbed Naruto's left foot.

"Beep!"

But Naruto's body suddenly disappeared.

And in the next second.

"What do you think you're doing!"

An adult voice called out.

"Naruto, Sasuke, and Kitahara Kaede."

"This isn't even the exam yet, why are you fighting!"

It was the voice of Konoha's elite Jonin, Kakashi Hatake.

"Ah..."

Being scolded, Naruto rubbed his head.

"..." As for Sasuke, he put his hands in his pockets, looking very arrogant.

Stubborn.

"Never mind." Kakashi knew he had no dignity within Team 7.

He jumped down from the tree and looked at the Sand Village group.

"Sorry about that, our village's Genin can be a bit impulsive."

"You're from the Sand Village, aren't you?"

"Your Kazekage is staying at the guest inn up ahead."

"Oh, look, your Jonin instructor is here."

Kakashi said.

And as Kakashi spoke, the Sand Village group also noticed a Sand Village ninja appearing in the trees.

The light-colored ninja uniform of the Sand Village, with facial markings, and half of his face covered by bandages.

This was the elite Jonin of the Sand Village, the Jonin who held things together - Baki.

"Hmph!"

Gaara grabbed with one hand, seemingly wanting to activate his sand again, but Baki glanced at him.

"..." Gaara shut up. He closed his eyes, then opened them, and the sand on the ground seemed to come alive, flowing back into his gourd.

This scene amazed the rookie Genin, Sasuke and Naruto.

They had also been training in taijutsu during this time. As for ninjutsu, they had only encountered Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu and Kakashi's Water Dragon Bullet.

So, they were very curious about the ninjutsu of other villages.

"Sorry, our village's rookie Genin got into it with your elite."

Baki came before Kakashi and, as if enthusiastically, shook Kakashi's hand.

"..." Kakashi.

"No," Kakashi said. "They are guests who traveled a long way, and our people were a bit impulsive."

"But it looks like your Genin are quite strong," Kakashi added.

Kakashi knew that Naruto and Sasuke's taijutsu training was already excellent, reaching Jonin level. They could even send him flying if he wasn't careful.

However, if Gaara could withstand it, it meant... Gaara's strength... had also reached Jonin level.

And this Gaara...

He was the Fourth Kazekage Rasa's... Jinchuriki son, wasn't he?

Thinking this, Kakashi couldn't help but recall [Observing Kitahara Kaede?(^_-) Small Group]. Then he thought of the Worst Kazekage-Rasa in the group, and now these people from the Sand Village.

When Rasa was still around, the Sand Village was governed so inhumanely. It was like a corrupted version of the Third Hokage.

And now that Rasa was gone, Orochimaru became the Kazekage... and then these people from the Sand Village... became Orochimaru's pawns.

Truly... pathetic.

Baki had noticed Kakashi looking at them with pity.

However, Baki just thought Kakashi had seen Gaara being beaten and assumed they were weak.

"..." Baki also felt a little regret.

He had instructed Temari and the others to provoke Konoha a little upon arrival.

But as soon as they provoked, they were beaten up instead.

What kind of hellhole was this Konoha?

They thought it was weak and could be invaded, but now... two Genin were beating their Sand Village's secret weapon, the One-Tail Jinchuriki?

It seemed they needed to observe more carefully.
