"What's going on?!"
Hearing the explosion, Chiyo was the first to rush out of the Kazekage Building. In the distance, crimson flames and thick black smoke rose into the sky from a cluster of buildings!

Baki and the others rushed out as well, and the moment they saw the direction, their expressions changed drastically.
That was where Gaara's home was!
"Who are you?"
Amid the thick black smoke, Gaara stood with his red hair and crimson shinobi attire, looking like a blazing flame!
Hiruko, Zetsu, and Sasori of the Red Sands slowly approached.

A violent explosion suddenly erupted against the sand wall, the explosive shockwave nearly tearing it in half!
"What kind of ninjutsu is this?"
Gaara narrowed his eyes as frenzied killing intent gradually surfaced within them.
In the original story, Gaara had been enlightened by Naruto's Talk no Jutsu during the Konoha Crush Plan, gradually stepping out of darkness and into the light.

Whoosh, whoosh...
The yellow sand in the gourd on his back surged out wildly, directly forming a cloud of sand that densely swept toward Hiruko like a swarm of locusts.
Hiruko sneered and threw another punch.
The instant his fist came into contact with the sand
