Chapter 365 Unity

Looking at Gaara's embarrassed appearance, he was obviously injured, but it shouldn't be serious.

The Jinchuuriki's continuous combat ability is very strong. As long as the body is not seriously injured, the impact on the combat effectiveness is not great.

In comparison, Daimaru's situation is much better.

However, from the beginning to now, Daimaru's chakra has been consumed a lot by continuing to suppress Gaara's performance.

Feeling that the chakra in his body was slowly recovering under the nourishment of spiritual power and the life energy provided by the White Zetsu clone cells, Daimaru looked at Gaara, who had calmed down his injuries with the help of Ichibi Shukaku's chakra, and let him go again. Surrounded by freely moving sand, he carefully defended himself against Daimaru's attack.

The Daimaru hovering above Gaara's head did not attack as before.

After giving up the idea of ​​victory or defeat, Daimaru was ready to give it a try. There was no future for Daimaru to play Ninjutsu against the Jinchuuriki. Daimaru's advantage lay in close combat.

Even though Temari, Kankuro and Gaara had hired Zi Luo as a Taijutsu teacher in advance, the three siblings were all average in terms of fighting ability.

Although Daimaru formed an air combat unit and had a lot of fun with flying ninja tactics, the path he insisted on in ninjutsu has never changed.

Gaara, who changed the direction of his gaze in response to Daimaru's rhythm, was thinking about how to deal with Daimaru, who was flying in mid-air at a speed far exceeding his own. When he was stunned, the figure in his sight suddenly disappeared.

"not good……"

Realizing the change, the one-tailed Jinchuuriki's body had not yet reacted, and the surrounding sand had already risen in advance to block possible attacks.

"too slow!"

Daimaru suddenly appeared, passed directly through the sand defense wall that had no time to react, and appeared in front of Gaara. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Gaara who had a slightly horrified face.

"Sudden instantaneous movement so quickly..."

Before he could finish speaking, Gaara's neck was grasped by big hands like steel pliers, and the remaining words that were left unsaid were naturally blocked.

"Ninpo Makoto Moon Minions!"

Wind Release was like an all-pervasive fine steel needle, piercing the sand armor on the body surface and seeping into Gaara's body.

Gaara was caught off guard. Daimaru held his neck and threw him to the ground. The extremely destructive wind was raging in his body.

But Daimaru, who had once succeeded, did not show a look of joy. Instead, he frowned, released his palm, let go of the figure whose throat was smashed, and quickly retreated, avoiding the counterattack of Sunako's big hand.

Sure enough, the figure that was broken by Daimaru was just a layer of sand armor, with nothing inside. Gaara himself had used the Substitute Technique to avoid it.

"You're not slow either!"

Daimaru, who chuckled lightly, stamped his feet violently. The shock wave of Earth Release and Sand Dance spread along the ground. The force of the squeezing of the sand made Gaara, who was hidden underground, rush out of the ground and land firmly on the sand. superior,

"I can do Sand Ninjutsu. Although it's not as good as yours, it's still good enough!"

After saying that, Daimaru's Wind Release wings reappeared as he jumped up lightly, avoiding the attack of the sand pillar gun rising from the ground.

"Let me tell you, although it's a bit arrogant, Gaara, you don't seem to have thought about how to deal with enemies that are flying in the air and are far more flexible than you. You are not qualified to protect Sunagakure Village..."

"The best air combat troops are our compatriots. With them, I don't have to cover everything, and I can't do it..."

Gaara, who struggled to control the sand to float into the air and fight with Daimaru, knew that every ninja's energy was limited, and he, as a Jinchuuriki, was no exception.

The Kazekage lineage who are proficient in Magnetic Release can actually fly. For example, the Kazekage Sandaime has excellent aerial combat capabilities, and it is not without reason that he is known as the strongest Kazekage.

Kazekage Fourth Generation Rasa, who is good at magnetic escape and sand gold secret art, also has the ability to fly, but his aerial combat ability is relatively poor. It's not that he doesn't know it, but he has given up the practice of fighting ability in the flying field.

Compared to the Sandaime's focus on improving combat effectiveness, Rasa actually prefers to use the sealing expertise of Blood Succession Limit and Magnetic Release.

Because the first one-tailed jinchūriki passed away at the end of his life, a suitable successor could not be found for a long time. Gaara's previous sealing experiments all ended in failure, causing extremely heavy losses.

Even though Gaara barely managed to control the one-tailed Shukaku, strictly speaking, he was actually a failure.

Because of the demand and the responsibility of being a Kazekage, Luo Sha had to make a choice and focus his limited energy on the most practical area of ​​sealing.

As for the young Gaara, his goal is to increase his absolute power as quickly as possible. In the field of aerial combat, which is extremely technical, it is natural that he cannot spare time to practice.

Daimaru sighed slightly:

"It's a good idea to believe in the strength of our compatriots and unite all forces! However, the village today does not have the strength to defend the core. Even the elite Shadow Guards are actually just like that..."

Although it was a bit frustrating to tell the truth, both Daimaru and Gaara knew this was the truth.

"Besides, I'm not talking about others, but you! Now the village can no longer bear the sad news of Feng Ying's death in battle. If you want to protect your compatriots, you must first consider your own safety..."

"you mean……"

Gaara, who frowned slightly, looked at Daimaru, who was constantly looking for a fighter, in confusion.

"The movements of your hands are slow..."

Gaara was slightly distracted, but Daimaru saw the flaw. The Wind Release wings behind his back suddenly flapped, turning into a ray of light. The sharp wing tips directly cut through the defense of the sand wall, and cut off the captured ones. Big sand arm.

"Desert wave!"

A huge amount of sand instantly emerged from all over his body, surrounding him. Under absolute defense, he controlled the outer layer of sand to form spikes and faced the impact of Daimaru.

"Wrist electricity·Constant voltage!"

In short-range assaults, Daimaru's most commonly used secret technique of wind escape can be used both horizontally and in the air. However, the killing distance is too close, and the power decreases sharply if it is further away.

Ignoring the sand gun that came back, Daimaru's speed did not slow down and he collided directly. He was pierced by the sand gun, and his left arm wrapped with sharp wind attribute chakra also cut through the desert wave's defense and submerged into it.

The Feng Dun held in his hand exploded violently, blasting away the desert wave and shattering his own arm inch by inch.

However, no blood flowed from Daimaru's body, including the pierced torso.

Gaara, who was shocked at close range and had blood flowing from his ears, had his pupils shrink.

"It's a puppet again..."

Gaara slapped the puppet down with his giant hand of sand. Before he could recover, the scattered remains of the puppet suddenly burned, and a strange smell followed his nostrils and penetrated into his chest and abdomen.

"Poison smoke?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the burning puppet fragments suddenly exploded.
