Gaara revealed a cruel smile.
He loved watching others bleed the most.
But the moment the sand wrapped around Jinghuo Uchiha's feet, the Chakra controlling it was burned away by the Orange Flame's high temperature.
"I need denser Chakra!" Gaara's battle instincts made him abandon the vast amount of sand gained by assimilating the ground. He controlled only a portion of it and swept it toward Jinghuo Uchiha again.
