Chapter 25 Uneasy mood

Temari has been feeling a little uneasy lately.

Ever since the Chuunin Exam Qualification Preliminary Test ended, teacher Maki Jounin's words always felt a little abnormal.

"What does it mean to be well aware and ready to protect the glory of Sunagakure Village with your life?" Is the mere Chunin Exam so dangerous? 』

Gaara is a problem child who doesn't care about anything, and Kankuro is not very reliable either, playing with a bunch of broken puppets all day long.

Only Temari, who seemed to be irritable but was actually as considerate as a hair, could detect anything strange.

Some things are hard to mention to others, and even if you ask others, you won't be able to get the answer.

After venting her somewhat depressed emotions at the training ground, Temari came to her friend's house as promised.

As the daughter of the Kazekage family, there are many people who fawn over her.

Many wishful thinking young ninjas also tried to capture Temari's heart to change their status.

There are some female ninjas who are of similar status to Temari, but most of them are eldest ladies with bad tempers, and almost none of them can talk to Temari.

While enjoying the convenience brought by his father's status, he also suffered some natural criticism.

Being able to make friends with Qian is a matter of course.

When they were in ninja school, both of them were ninjas who used fans, and they also liked ornamental plants.

They have common interests and hobbies, and after a few years, Temari and Qianya know each other well.

Although there is a huge gap in status and strength between the two, this does not affect their friendship.

In the past few days, Qian ventured out and brought back several precious desert plants, hoping to make powerful potions to prepare for the Chunin Exam.

Before that, Qian wanted Temari to come and see her achievements, so she specially invited her to come over.

Chatting with her friends made Temari, who was depressed, feel a little more relaxed.

"With these, I feel more confident about the Chunin Exam!"

Although the effect is not known yet, it can be considered that we have tried hard.

"Qian, be careful during the Chuunin Exam."

Temari wanted to remind him, but due to Ma Ji's instructions, he should not spread bad news at will.

"Don't underestimate me now, I might surprise you!"

"Really!"

Temari, who didn't know where to start even if she wanted to explain, sighed silently.

"Temari is a little weird today, what's wrong with you?"

"The only thing that makes me unhappy lately is your idiot teammate Daimaru. I don't know why that guy keeps pestering me..."

"It depends on the person! You see, I meet him almost every day, and I don't see him trying to take advantage of me. And Nighteye, in Daimaru's eyes, he is probably just a brat who hasn't grown up!"

"You talk like it's a good thing to be entangled with him! There are not many people who can talk to me properly regardless of their family background. To be honest, having a stupid friend is not a bad thing, but Daimaru..."

Temari waved her hand,

"It's so stupid that it makes me very embarrassed!"

"Miss Temari is really greedy!"

Qian covered her mouth and snickered,

"Unsatisfactory life always comes from having too many demands. If Daimaru had a normal mind, some girls would like him.

There are too many young ninjas with various quirks in our village. In comparison, Daimaru is really quite normal..."

"If you say so..."

Temari held her chin and thought lazily.

"It's really...there is no stupidest, only stupider!"

His two younger brothers were not economical. Among the ninjas he knew, there were many who behaved more erratically than Daimaru.

"Actually, it's been almost three months since I teamed up with Yeme and Daimaru, and I always feel like this person..."

Qian recalled the past events during this period,

"How should I put it? It's a bit contradictory..."

"oh……"

Temari became interested,

"You seem to like it?"

"It's not that I like it, it's just that I haven't seen a Suna ninja of the same age who is better than him so far!"

"That's a very high rating! Are you out of your mind...have you been infected by Daimaru's stupidity?"

Qian chuckled lightly and brushed away Temari's hand that reached out to touch her forehead.

"It's not that I can't understand that you think Daimaru is a bit stupid. In my opinion, Daimaru only seems to be a bit brainless when facing you. Most of the time, it's really extraordinary!"

"Hey, are you so eager to say good things to your teammates? If you like him, I can reject him in person and let him haunt my thoughts, and you can take advantage of it!"

"You do not understand!"

Qian shook his head,

"Daimaru has never looked at me directly. In his eyes, I am just a female ninja..."

"Your relationship ended before it even started? It's so boring..."

Temari teased.

The two of them have long been familiar with each other's way of getting along, and they won't have any grudges just because they speak a little rudely.

"The phoenix flying proudly in the sky cannot look down upon the chirping sparrows in the forest!"

Qian said with some regret,

"Although he is a little reluctant, Daimaru's vision is really accurate and he picked the best one at a glance!"

"Are you praising me in disguise? It won't do you any good!"

"No need! I just hope that no matter what the future holds, we will always be friends!"

"Of course!"

Temari smiled with a smile on her face.

"Chunin Exam, don't die, I will be sad."

"so serious?"

Qian was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said,

"You too, be careful! If you need our help, don't be polite. That guy Daimaru is almost stunned waiting for the chance for a hero to save the beauty!"

"If that happens one day, I might look at him differently!"

Temari scoffed.

He added troubles that Kankuro and Gaara couldn't solve, so it's strange that Daimaru could find a solution.

…

In the single ninja apartment, it was rare for Miss Saya to prepare honestly at home, checking and filling in the gaps for her puppet.

Daimaru next door is also patiently carving his own stand-in puppet.

Although he is not an orthodox puppet master, he still needs to be skilled in the ability to confuse the enemy and protect his body.

Not only that, Daimaru did not waste the remaining scrap materials.

Taking into account the enemies that may be encountered during the Chunin Examination and the Konoha Collapse Plan, some small things were made in a targeted manner, just waiting to be used when the time comes.

On the other side, Maki, who is the leader of the Chunin Examination team and the commander-in-chief on the surface, is selecting the ninjas to perform the mission according to the plan.

Daimaru's former captain Sunatetsu and current captain Nekaze were both recruited. Even Chuunin Sunato, whom he met at the Northern Fortress, was incorporated into the raiding team at the main venue of the third Chuunin Examination.

As time went by and the departure date got closer, Daimaru, who was originally a little anxious, gradually calmed down.

Daimaru, who had returned home for the first time, still didn't have a few words with his quarreling grandfather, but his mother, a housewife, didn't know much about ninjas either.

After saying goodbye to their families, the genin with various thoughts received their passes and embarked on their journey to Konoha Village.
