As Nagase expected, Naruto and Sasuke were training at the place he arranged at this time.
"Uncle Nagasawa/Teacher Nagasawa."
Naruto and Sasuke saw Nagase coming and temporarily stopped their training to greet Nagase.
And Nagase responded to them with a smile, then moved a little to the side, revealing Gaara who was hiding behind him.
"He came to our Konoha from another village to study. He may train with you in the future. You two should get to know each other." Nagase introduced Gaara to Naruto's left assistant.
At the same time, Nagase also said to Gaara: "Say hello, the one with yellow hair and a white shirt with red patterns is the Naruto I told you about before, and the one with black hair and a blue shirt next to him is Uchiha Sasuke."
"Hello... hello." Gaara was a little nervous when he was suddenly exposed to the sight of Naruto's left assistant and felt the curious gazes of the two.
"I'm from the Sand Village, and my name is Gaara."
After the introduction, Gaara closed his mouth, lowered his head slightly, and secretly glanced at Naruto and Sasuke out of the corner of his eyes.
Seeing Naruto's smile that seemed to show infinite confidence, Gaara could already imagine what kind of child he was.
"He must have many friends just like Nagasawa-nii said," Gaara thought to himself.
Naruto's left assistant was also very curious about the other ninja village children brought by Nagase, especially Naruto.
Looking at the dark circle next to Gaara's eyes, Naruto was a little curious and said, "Hello, I'm Namikaze Naruto, why is there such a dark circle next to your eyes?"
After hearing what Naruto said, Gaara subconsciously touched his dark circles, then lowered his head even lower, as if he didn't want people to see his dark circles.
Obviously, this characteristic that was different from other children caused him to encounter many obstacles in making friends.
"Because I often suffer from insomnia and can't sleep, that's it." Gaara said with his head down.
"So that's how it is. I thought you painted it yourself to make yourself look more unique." Naruto showed a shocked expression.
"Stupid Naruto, how could anyone do that?" Zuo Zhu complained.
Naruto scratched his head and ignored Sasuke's complaints, and continued to speak to Gaara:
"I also have trouble sleeping sometimes, but I don't have such exaggerated dark circles under my eyes. How serious is your insomnia? It must be very uncomfortable."
As for Naruto himself, the time when he couldn't sleep was when Nagase finished telling a story and then stopped talking. Naruto would start to daydream and guess what the next plot would be, and he couldn't fall asleep at night.
Naruto felt really uncomfortable at that time. Not only was he in pain from having the chapter interrupted, but he also felt uncomfortable from wanting to sleep but not being able to.
I clearly wanted to sleep, but my thoughts kept wandering. In the end, the more I thought, the more awake I became, and I became more and more unable to sleep.
When you force yourself not to think about something, you start thinking about something else in the blink of an eye. Maybe half an hour later you realize that you have started to think about random things again. Then you force yourself not to think about them again and start a new cycle until you are mentally exhausted and fall asleep without realizing it.
He felt uncomfortable even if he did this occasionally, and Naruto couldn't imagine how painful it would be for someone to have to do this every day.
"It's okay, it won't be that uncomfortable once you get used to it." Gaara raised his head and looked at Naruto.
He felt that this time was really different, Naruto was different from the other kids he had met before.
In the Sand Village, when others saw his dark circles under his eyes, they could only think of rumors about monsters, but Naruto would care whether he was feeling uncomfortable.
At this moment, Gaara had a feeling in his heart that Naruto would become his friend, and they would definitely become good friends.
"If you have insomnia, you should go to the hospital. It's not a good idea to fight it on your own." Naruto's left assistant interrupted.
"Thank you, but my situation is a bit special. It's not that I'm sick, but..." Gaara thanked him and wanted to tell the truth, but stopped.
"And what? Why don't you say anymore?" Naruto got a little anxious when he saw Gaara was halfway through his words. He was curious about why Gaara was like that, but suddenly he stopped talking.
Gaara is planning to tell people that there is a monster inside his body, which requires courage.
"But, there is a monster named Shukaku in my body. Its power disturbs my sleep, so I often suffer from insomnia." Gaara said helplessly with courage.
"There's a monster in the body, right?" Zuo Zhu looked at Gaara with suspicion. Isn't this a child of the same age as them? How could there be a monster in such a small body
"Monster, why is there a monster in your body?" Although Naruto looked at Gaara without doubt, he also raised a question.
Hearing Naruto's question and Sasuke's suspicious look, Gaara really felt the difference.
In Sunagakure he would be treated as a monster even if he didn't say anything, but here he is still doubted even if he says there is a monster in his body.
But he had a question. Didn't Nagase say that there was also a monster in Naruto's body? But Naruto didn't have dark circles under his eyes. The only thing that made him different from an ordinary child was that he had three or a few long whiskers on his face. And it seemed that Naruto didn't know that there was a monster in his body.
What Gaara didn't know was that not everyone had the same attitude towards the Jinchūriki as his father Rasa.
For example, Minato, when Naruto was so young, he naturally would not tell Naruto that he was a Jinchuriki and there was a tailed beast in his body.
Minato planned to wait until Naruto graduated from the Ninja Academy and became an official ninja before telling him the situation.
At that time, Naruto already had enough mental strength to face all of this.
"I don't know how to explain it, but there is indeed a monster in my body." Gaara thought about it and didn't know how to answer Naruto's question.
At this time, Naruto said to Nagase beside him: "Uncle Nagase, Gaara said there is a monster in his body. Can you help him kill the monster? You are so powerful, there must be no problem."
Hearing Naruto's words, Nagase smiled and said, "The monster in Gaara's body is a tailed beast. Now it is closely connected to Gaara. It is easy to kill Shukaku, but Gaara will die with it."
For Nagase now, the tailed beasts are no longer a problem. Defeating a tailed beast is extremely easy.
But he couldn't guarantee whether the Jinchūriki would be sent along.
According to the experience in the original work, if a Jinchūriki wants to escape from the tailed beast and survive, the tailed beast can only take the initiative to give up a part of its chakra and remain in the Jinchūriki's body, so as to prevent the Jinchūriki from dying suddenly.
It's like the Eight-Tailed Fox left an octopus tentacle for Killer Bee.
However, it is obvious that the relationship between most of the tailed beasts and the Jinchūriki is not that good, and it is impossible for them to deliberately give up a part of their power and keep it in the Jinchūriki's body for the sake of the Jinchūriki.
"Hey, why is this happening?" Naruto was obviously a little disappointed.
"Hey, hey, this is not the point. It turns out there really is a monster inside his body!" Zuo Zhu showed a shocked expression.
He looked left and right, but couldn't figure out how Gaara's small body could accommodate the monster. Could it be that the monster was not huge but rather very mini
Zuo Zhu fell into deep thought.
I don't know if it was because he heard someone wanted to beat it to death, or because he hated the smell of the Nine-Tailed Fox the most, but Shukaku in Gaara's body woke up.
"Why does it smell like that stinky fox?" Shukaku was a little confused when he woke up.
"Is the war starting again? Even a small man like this has to go to the battlefield?"
The tailed beasts inside the Jinchūriki's body can actually sense the outside world to a certain extent.
So when Shukaku was a little confused, it directly sensed what was happening outside.
Shukaku discovered that this was not the battlefield he had guessed, but only two children and an ordinary ninja he didn't know. Shukaku couldn't help but become even more confused.
"That blond-haired, bearded kid should be the Jinchūriki of the stinky fox." Shukaku said that he could smell the stench of the Nine-Tails even through a space.
Shukaku was confused and ecstatic.
Although it didn't know why the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was here, nor did it know where this place was, it didn't look like the Sand Village at all.
But it knows one thing, that is, the time for revenge has come.
The little brat Nine-Tailed Fox always shows off his nine big tails, and preaches that the strength of the tailed beasts is determined by the number of tails.
Can you tolerate the One-Tail's violent temper? Of course not. Not only do you brag about yourself, but you also praise others and put others down. You are just short of directly saying that the One-Tail is the weakest among the tailed beasts.
But is the One-Tail really weak? In fact, it is not weak, so the One-Tail naturally hates the Nine-Tail.
A tail of violent chakra exploded in Gaara's body, and a violent and murderous aura slowly rose.
If Gaara had grown up, he might have been able to suppress the tailed beast with his mental strength, but the three-year-old Gaara at this moment obviously did not have this ability. A terrifying aura surged out of Gaara, and the wind and waves he created made the surrounding trees rustle.
Naruto and Sasuke were so shocked by Shukaku's powerful and brutal killing that they stood there unable to move.
After all, they are just three-year-old children who have just started training. It is really too much for them to face the tailed beasts easily.
The Nine-Tailed Fox in Naruto sensed the movement outside and sensed it curiously. Then, after sensing Nagase's breath, it quickly suppressed its own breath to the lowest level.
"It's that stupid raccoon cat. This idiot still hasn't made any progress. He's probably going to be in trouble." The Nine-Tailed Fox in Naruto's consciousness space couldn't help but grin, revealing an expression of gloating.
Ever since he was inexplicably dragged out and received an unprecedented beating on the night of the Nine-Tailed Fox, the Nine-Tailed Fox has been extremely obedient now and doesn't dare to make any small moves.
Do you know how much psychological trauma a tailed beast would have if it was caught in someone's hand and smashed around? The Nine-Tails said that he knew it and had even experienced it twice.
One time, Hashirama's big Buddha statue grabbed it like a chicken and said that he was too powerful.
Kyuubi really wants to say, can you please not pinch me so tightly when you say this, it hurts.
The next time, he was beaten up by Nagase with his fists.
That time also made Jiuwei doubt his life. How could such a little guy like Nagase be so strong
The Nine-Tailed Fox is now lying down. Let him do whatever he wants. He is not happy to go out and is worried about getting beaten again.
So now seeing the One-Tail revealing its true form as a tailed beast in front of Nagase, the Nine-Tail is extremely happy. What could be better than having someone else suffer the same loss as him? Of course there is, and that is when that person happens to be someone he hates.
Gaara's face turned pale when he felt the drastic changes in his body. Looking at Naruto and Sasuke who were so scared that they stood still, Gaara tried his best to suppress the One-Tail to make it come out more slowly, while shouting:
"Naruto and Sasuke, run quickly. The monster in my body is going to go berserk. It will hurt you then. I can't control it."
Watching his body gradually being replaced by the ugly body of the One-Tail, Gaara's big eyes were filled with tears, and the tears could no longer be controlled and flowed down.
Why, why did this have to happen when he was about to make friends.
Seeing how ugly and disheveled he looks, Naruto and the others would definitely be very scared of him. Not to mention being friends with him, they would be scared to even be together with him.
Gaara's aura became stronger and stronger, starting with his hands and feet, transforming into the gray-yellow limbs of One-Tail, and then other parts of his body.
A powerful aura rose into the sky, and a large number of birds sensed this violent and powerful aura and were frightened so that they flew everywhere. Some animals on the ground were frightened so much that they huddled up in place and trembled. This was the oppressive feeling of the tailed beast.
Even the ninjas at a certain distance felt this terrifying aura and hurried to report to their superiors.
'Maybe I should really stay alone. People with monsters living in their bodies don't deserve to have friends. My existence will only hurt them.' Gaara thought sadly. This was his last thought before he lost consciousness.
"You're quite brave." Nagaze next to him raised his eyebrows. Has this Nine-Tailed Fox always been so brave? Doesn't it know that Nagaze is here? Not even the strongest Nine-Tailed Fox dares to be so arrogant.
Sensing the aura here, Nagase's real body descended directly. He first slapped the beast back with a big slap, and then used a sealing technique to reinforce the seal.
Seeing the real body coming, the shadow clone nodded and disbanded the shadow clone, otherwise it would be a bit inappropriate for the two Nagasawa to stand together.
After all, his shadow clone also inherited his handsomeness. When two such handsome guys stand together, it is easy for everyone to decide which one to look at. That would be a big deal.
As the One-Tail was sealed at the speed of light, Gaara regained consciousness.
Seeing that everything around him was safe and sound, Gaara opened his eyes wide, somewhat in disbelief. Every time he did this before, the surroundings were basically a mess.
This time, nothing happened at all. Naruto and his left savior were standing still, except that their hair was a little messy.
"I'm sorry, I..." Gaara lowered his head and apologized to Naruto, Sasuke and Nagasawa.
At this moment, Gaara was ready to be scolded and beaten, and he decided in his heart that he would no longer look for friends in the future. People like him were not worthy of it.
"You guy, you are really..." Naruto came to his senses, walked in front of Gaara and raised his hand.
Gaara still kept his head down.
