Chapter 364 Rapid descent

The discomfort caused by the cold and lack of oxygen made Gaara a little unfocused, but the one-tailed Shukaku inside him was very awake.

Although I like the feeling of flying high in the sky, now is not the time. Shukaku, who sensed something was wrong, reminded Gaara in his mind:

"This place always feels a little bad! Fight back quickly, otherwise we will be in trouble."

There were no clouds in the sky, the deep blue sky, and the golden sunlight dazzled Gaara's eyes.

"This is?"

The strong wind entered my throat, making it impossible for Gaara's voice to be heard at all. Only the place where my palms were pressed against my back was pressed heavily, making me very uncomfortable.

"No, I'm going to suffer..."

The sand armor on his body was almost completely broken, and the rapidly flowing air was like a steel brush, cutting the exposed skin and stinging badly.

The self-prepared sand cannot keep up, and there is no sand in the nearby environment. When using sand manipulation ninjutsu at this moment, the environment is even worse than when using water escape in the Kingdom of Wind.

Fortunately, there is a Shukaku inside him, otherwise it would be difficult to even fight back.

He waved his right hand with all his strength and turned into a big hand of sand, forcing Daimaru back. After his body rose several hundred meters with the inertia, Gaara turned around with difficulty and looked down, dozens of kilometers away. The northern fortress is as inconspicuous as a scar the size of a fingernail dotted in the golden desert.

"This height is too dangerous!"

Even the brave Gaara, who is an expert in arts, couldn't help but start to feel frightened.

"Can you fly?"

"I'm not that cowardly bug from Chongming who can't fly!"

Ichibi Shukaku seemed to be remembering some past events and said some unhappy words in a weird tone.

"If I could fly, why would I need to ask others to take me?"

Gaara had no choice but to give up his plan to ask Shukaku to help.

Below, the sand with its own chakra mark is approaching quickly. Soon, it will be able to hold itself up and land slowly. The only trouble is the big pill waiting for an opportunity.

Gaara, who had nowhere to rely on, now really became a target with little defense ability.

Just when he was hesitating and not sure how to defend next, the invisible star puppet string tied Gaara's limbs and torso. A shadow clone instantly appeared behind the unsuspecting Gaara and locked his neck. .

"With my own attack, I really can't do anything to you, so I have to resort to this trick! Don't die..."

As he spoke, Daimaru's shadow clone controlled Gaara to spin and fall upside down, his wings vibrating and accelerating. Daimaru's body also "caringly" used Wind Release and Gale Palm to give the two of them a boost.

It was as fast as a meteor when it rose, and even faster when it fell. After a while, it was diving three times faster than before.

The friction with the air intensified, and the wind escape chakra that enveloped the two of them was quickly wiped out. Daimaru's shadow clone also dispersed, leaving Gaara turned into a ball of fire.

Knowing that his love was not good, Ichibi Shukaku transformed into a small avatar of sand and wrapped Gaara to protect him from harm.

The outer layer of sand vaporizes and burns during the friction with the air, and Shukaku's chakra inside is quickly replenished, preventing the incarnation armor from being completely stripped off.

"This won't work. Even if you don't get burned to death, you will be shocked to death by the impact of landing..."

Gaara, who was completely sealed inside, didn't know what was going on outside.

It was obviously just a sparring match, but he accidentally dug a big hole for Gaara. If he couldn't think of a way to deal with it, he would probably be seriously injured even if he didn't die.

"Flying ninja, this is how you fight?"

"I didn't know, I've never seen this before..."

Ichibi Shukaku was a little helpless. Even when the tailed beasts fought, Shigeaki Nanao, the only one who could fly, had never used such a fighting method.

Tailed beasts are immortal and can be resurrected after a few years after being killed.

Even the one with the least amount of chakra is not very afraid of falling from high altitudes. He will be injured and weak, but he will not die, but this is not necessarily the case for Gaara.

A body of flesh and blood is no match for a tailed beast. If there is no buffer, if it falls at this speed, it will most likely be doomed.

"Anyway, let's start saving ourselves!"

Gaara made up his mind and quickly took over the incarnation of sand. His two front paws quickly expanded and turned into big hands like cattail fans, which could catch a little bit of the wind.

But this was far from enough. Gaara, who fell like a burning fireball, needed something other than such a superficial approach.

When he was at a loss, the reserve sand, which was far behind, finally hit Gaara head-on.

As if sensing that Gaara's condition was not good, Suna automatically formed a soft cotton pad and dragged Gaara down.

"Is this okay?"

Daimaru stared dumbfounded at the "fight and then retreat" sand pad, slowly but surely reducing the speed of Gaara's descent.

“It’s good if it’s passed down from home!”

Automatic defense is just one of its manifestations. The core is to get Gaara out of danger.

As long as these seemingly living sands are close to Gaara, they will have an effect.

If Daimaru hadn't used some tricks to separate it from Gaara, he probably wouldn't have been able to reach this level.

Now Gaara is falling too fast, and it is probably impossible to stop it completely. He will be slightly injured when he lands, but his life should not be in danger.

Daimaru, who originally thought that if Gaara was helpless, would pull him in at the critical moment, gave up his thoughts.

The first wave of tests was over, and Daimaru used an unexpected strategy to gain the upper hand, but it was still early to win.

At the same time, Gaara, who noticed the turn of events, hurriedly controlled the sand pad under him to slow down. Unfortunately, the pressure was too much, and the chakra consumption was astonishing. Fortunately, there was Shukaku, who kept helping Gaara. Replenish.

A few minutes later, Gaara, who was covered in sand armor, hit the soft sand heavily. The sand flew up. When the dust settled, a sand pit with a center depth of five to six meters and a radius of nearly fifty meters appeared.

After a while, sand surged in the center of the pit, and a somewhat embarrassed Gaara stood up with a heavy breath.

"It's really amazing, I almost died! I underestimated the enemy..."

Daimaru looked at the eager Gaara below with some embarrassment.

The method of surprise is most effective the first time. Gaara, who has gained wisdom every time he suffers, will probably not let Daimaru have a second chance to succeed.

"It's really troublesome!" Fortunately, it’s just a discussion, not a life-and-death battle..."

Hard power is lacking. If the initiative is lost, the results will not be good.

"In that case, let's come upright and have a good fight!" 』

Winning or losing is not unimportant, but it is more important to test your own strength and understand your status.

I guess Gaara thinks so too!

There are also those secretly peeping eyes who also want to see if Gaara is qualified to be a candidate for the Fifth Kazekage.
