Naruto: Starting from Eating the Gold Fruit

Chapter 459 What was he doing running off to Sunagakure?!

Earlier:

"Hello, boss, I'd like a carnation." A boy with brown hair falling diagonally across his forehead and a "love" character on his temple walked into a flower shop.

Some people might recognize him at a glance; this person is Gaara.

Moreover, although the fourth Kazekage of this world has now been confirmed to be Rasa, the third Kazekage was Chiyo, and Sunagakure has developed into an international metropolis after more than 30 years of development. Rasa has only been in power for a few years, and the One-Tailed Shukaku inside Gaara was sealed into Gaara's body with the unanimous consent of the elders of Sunagakure.

Although Gaara is still seen as a monster by the village children, at least in this world his mother was saved by Granny Chiyo and did not die in childbirth, so Gaara's personality is not so extreme.

He also has a loving older brother and sister, so Gaara has a very gentle personality; simply put...

The future Kazekage Gaara has been born ahead of schedule.

Yes, especially that greasy hairstyle, it was born ahead of schedule.

"Oh, Gaara, you bought flowers for your mother again? Okay, wait a minute, I'll go get them for you." The florist was quite enthusiastic towards Gaara.

In fact, this is reflected in Yua's development of Konoha over the years.

Tailed Beasts? How many divisions do you have, Tailed Beasts? I have three divisions here, each with five heavy combined arms brigades, and each brigade has an artillery battalion. Each artillery battalion is equipped with at least three hundred of the latest chakra cannons.

All the artillery battalions of the three divisions opened fire simultaneously. I wonder how many rounds of bombardment your Tailed Beast can withstand.

One round not enough? Then two rounds, three rounds, four rounds! Even ten rounds! A hundred rounds!

Therefore, the older one gets, the less afraid one is of tailed beasts.

What's there to be afraid of about tailed beasts? If they want to cause trouble, just pull out the cannons and take them down. Don't like it? Then bring out the missiles! Konoha Village's missile technology is undoubtedly the best in the world, but other villages are also developing it now. After all, Kumogakure had researched balloon launch technology before, so it wasn't starting from scratch. Therefore, Kumogakure Village already has missiles.

Compared to Yua's ability to cover the entire planet and even reach the moon from Konoha, Kumogakure's range of only a couple hundred miles seems utterly pathetic.

But something is better than nothing.

Since taking office, Rosa's most important task is undoubtedly to develop rockets and missiles.

Putting everything else aside, we absolutely must develop missiles with a range of 1,000 kilometers. Otherwise, it would be absurd if Konoha could hit them while they couldn't hit Konoha.

Therefore, Luo Sha has gradually become distant from her child recently.

You could say it's an inevitable consequence of the Shadow position.

Even the Hokage Yuya couldn't avoid becoming estranged from his son, resulting in him failing to properly educate his children. How could other Hokage be any different?

The florist gave Gaara a small vase of carnations. Gaara happily took the vase and then handed the florist two 10,000 yen bills: "Thank you, keep the change."

Then Gaara turned and left.

The florist happily accepted the money.

It smells so good, it smells amazing!

Who wouldn't like a kid like that?

So filial!

Gaara ran home carrying a vase.

His mother is in poor health and can't go out much. However, although she can't go out, she doesn't complain and loves growing flowers.

Gaara thought that if he bought all sorts of flowers to take home, his mother would be very happy.

Well, Gaara had no idea that most of the flowers sold in flower shops couldn't survive.

However, his mother, Galura, probably wouldn't care whether he could support the child or not, since it was her son's good intention.

Then, he encountered a pervert carrying a red fishing rod.

"Hello, Uncle, I'm going back now. Please make way for me," Gaara said to the figure in front of him.

It's true that Gaara was treated like a monster by the village children because of Shukaku, but Shukaku didn't cause him any harm.

After all, Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, had come out once before, and was bombarded by several rounds of cannon fire as soon as it appeared. After that, it refused to come out again, and no major casualties were caused. Naturally, the adults in the village had no fear of the tailed beasts.

As for children...

Hey, what do kids know? When they get older, they'll lose their fear of tailed beasts.

Just like when you were a kid you were afraid of caterpillars, and now that you're grown up... well, you're still afraid even now.

Anyway, Gaara's mentality hasn't collapsed yet, so he's being very polite.

Unfortunately, while he was polite, Urashiki Otsutsuki wasn't very good at it.

Urashiki Ōtsutsuki slung the fishing hook over his shoulder and then hurled it at Gaara.

"brush"

A ring of sand suddenly appeared around Gaara.

Then, Gaara watched in shock as the fishhook on the fishing rod passed through the wall of sand (short for Sand Wall) and entered his body.

"This thing can't stop me!" Ōtsutsuki Urashiki laughed wildly.

Then, Urashiki Ōtsutsuki pulled the fishing hook back.

However, upon closer inspection, there was nothing on the red fishhook.

Urashiki Ōtsutsuki: "???"

Gaara clutched his chest. After the fishhook came off his body, Gaara opened his eyes, looking somewhat puzzled.

Huh? Nothing's wrong.

At that moment, within Gaara's consciousness space, the roar of Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, echoed:

"Get out of here! You silly brat!"

Gaara was still wondering when Urashiki Otsutsuki charged towards him.

Gaara was startled and immediately turned and ran.

At this moment, the ANBU ninja from Sunagakure, who had been secretly protecting Gaara, jumped out and blocked Urashiki Ōtsutsuki's path.

Urashiki squinted at the Sand Village ninja in front of him, then revealed a sinister smile and a hurricane appeared in his palm.

With a sudden clench of his fist, Urashiki Otsutsuki dissipated the hurricane, and a series of wind blades shot towards the Sunagakure ANBU ninja in front of him.

The Sand Village ninja were shocked and quickly used the Body Flicker Technique to dodge.

The next moment, the red fishhook pierced through their bodies.

Urashiki Ōtsutsuki pulled hard on the hook, and his face darkened as he looked at the meager amount of chakra suspended on it: "Only this much?!"

This is like going fishing full of hope, with your target set: a big fish! But what you end up catching is a tiny fry.

Who can withstand this?

Urashiki Otsutsuki crushed the chakra ball in his hand.

He'd be ashamed to even throw that much into his own bottle!

Damn it...

Meanwhile, the Kazekage Rasa of Sunagakure, along with other Sunagakure ninja, also received the news and rushed over...

……

The next day:

Yuya sat in the Hokage's office, still wondering why the situation Sasuke had described yesterday hadn't occurred, when a communication request came from Sunagakure...

Subsequently, the newly appointed Kazekage declared that Konoha Village lacked martial ethics, sending people to their Sunagakure Village to steal a Jinchuriki! This matter wouldn't be over until it cost a million or eight million ryo!

You Ya was speechless.

He seemed to know where the person the middle-aged Sasuke had told him about was...

No, what did he go to Sunagakure for?!
