Chapter 166 Alliance
"Actually, I can't talk at all." Looking at Gaara, who was curled up in the corner and seemed to be only seven or eight years old, Ino sighed.
The other person kept his head down, and had no reaction at all to an outsider entering his inner world. He hugged his knees, buried his head deeply, and seemed very numb.
"I don't know, Kankuro, but your sister loves you. She is actually very scared and timid, but she still musters up the courage and wants to protect you with her tender hands."
Gaara said nothing.
Ino suddenly thought of something, and she said, "Your father is dead, you know this, right?"
Gaara really didn't have any good feelings towards his father who dug sand and picked up garbage, but Ino still read a little bit of emotional fluctuations in his inner world.
It is still a common problem of the Jinchūriki. Their hearts are full of love, but because of the tailed beasts, they are hostile to everyone. In agony, they want to gain recognition, especially the recognition of their loved ones.
Naruto is like this, Kaede is like this, and Gaara seems to be like this too.
In her inner world, Ino grabbed the extremely depressed Gaara and held him up with one hand, with the same posture as before at the competition.
"I'm asking you a question. Did you know that your father is dead?"
Gaara glared at her, "Aren't you talking nonsense? I knew it at the time!" Ino read some of his memories and found that it was true. This mental guy had discovered something unusual when Orochimaru unlocked the Five Elements Seal for her.
"Now that you know the truth, it's easy. Stand up like a man, don't let your sister and your half-witted brother worry, fight with us, find Orochimaru, and avenge your father!"
In this world, there is no law or rule of law. What matters is revenge and injustice. If you kill my father, I will kill you! People like Uchiha Itachi are extremely rare. Most people don't think that exaggeratedly.
Gaara falls within this range of most people.
Ino's words are in line with the current world's values and are also in line with human nature.
"Are you willing to help me? Why?" After Gaara put aside the anger in his heart, he actually had a calmness and wisdom beyond his age. He asked directly.
Ino answered honestly: "Yes, helping you is also helping ourselves."
She let go of her hand, and Gaara in his inner world covered his head. His body quickly grew from seven or eight years old to about fourteen or fifteen years old. He was slightly shorter than Ino, but no longer had the childlike appearance before.
Walking out of the cage he had set for himself, he stood up and looked back, as if looking at his past. Then he thought for a while, and finally reached out his hand, and the two held hands together.
"Okay, let's join forces."
Ino withdrew from Gaara's inner world, nodded gently to Shikaku, and released the shadow binding technique, releasing Temari and Kankuro as well.
Gaara half-knelt on the ground, breathing deeply, the characteristics of the tailed beast fading rapidly.
Ino threw a bottle of antidote to Temari: "Take it orally, the toxins will be eliminated soon. The remaining residual poison can be slowly excreted with his physical condition."
Haiyi winked at her and she nodded slightly.
Haiyi exchanged glances with Lujiu again, followed by Dingzuo.
The three families made up their minds and decided to "assist" Gaara in quelling the unrest.
In the original time and space, Shikamaru was able to marry Temari as his wife because they were in love with each other, but the secret arrangements of the Nara family in the Sand Village could not be ignored.
How many years of history does the Ninja Village have? Only sixty years, but the history of the Ninja Clan is much longer.
The Hyuga family and the Taketori family have always been allies, and this has nothing to do with the village.
Ino-Shika-Cho also have their own forces outside the village. Now that Konoha is in turmoil, they have made their move in the Sand Village in advance. This is the way for the ninja clan to survive.
Gaara is not only a Jinchūriki, but also the son of the previous Kazekage. He has outstanding talents in ninjutsu and can gain a large number of supporters by making a strong appeal.
The three families of Pig, Deer and Butterfly are fully qualified to form an alliance with him.
If he wants to inherit the position of Kazekage, he will need some external support, and the same goes for Ino-Shika-Chou.
If the situation really becomes hopeless, Ino-Shika-cho can leave Konoha and go to the Sand Village to continue to be a powerful ninja family, Shikaku can continue to be his adviser, and the Yamanaka family can continue to have control of intelligence. For them, apart from the damage to the family business, there will not be any major losses in other aspects.
Going to the Sand Village is their last resort, as that place is too poor. Currently they still want to keep the big ship of Konoha.
Ino-Shika-Chou intercepted the bond between Naruto and Gaara, but Ino didn't think it was a problem. With Naruto's brain that was negative in political ability, what kind of help could he provide to Gaara? Ninjas are not only about fighting and killing, but also about social skills! Temari and Kankuro were half-believing and half-doubting, but Gaara pointed out with certainty that the previous Fourth Kazekage was a fake, pretending to be Orochimaru, and the Sand Village was deceived by him.
The three of them were still very influential. Some Sand Village ninjas saw them standing together with the Konoha Village ninjas. After some explanation, they looked at the Konoha Village ninjas from afar and did not take any more action.
Soon, Gaara gathered nearly a hundred ninjas from the Sand Village.
On the other side, the Konoha ninjas were also discussing.
"Lord Shikaku, what should we do?" Don't even mention how depressed Genjian Shiranui was.
At first, he was a subordinate of the Third Generation. Later, seeing that the Fourth Generation was young and had few subordinates, he decisively joined the Fourth Generation. As a result, the Fourth Generation died within two days of taking power. He had no choice but to return to the Third Generation. After a lot of effort, he regained his trust, but then he had to face the unfortunate Chunin Exam. Now, when he heard this, he was like, what? The Third Generation is finished? Shit, what have I been busy with for the past ten years!
He was weak and could only rely on Ino-Shika-cho. After all, Shikaku was also the captain of the jonin squad, a chief of staff, and one of the high-ranking officials in the village. It was not shameful for a former jonin like him to obey the orders of the chief of staff.
"Gather the Konoha ninjas, assist the Sand Village ninjas, and start a counterattack." Shikaku set the tone for the entire operation. Ino-Shika-cho began to slowly gather those ninjas who had been disbanded, and headed towards the Chunin Exam site at the speed of old men and women taking a stroll after dinner.
Along the way, Ino-Shika-cho contacted the Hyuga family, the Inuzuka family, the Aburame family, and the Sarutobi family of the Third Hokage. Many ninja clans took action together. A large number of ninjas rushed to the battlefield under the leadership of their families, as if they had just learned of the invasion of foreign enemies. The originally stalemate situation began to reverse.
Ino was dissatisfied with the slow speed of the large group, so she said to Haiyi: "I heard that the Second Hokage is over there, I want to go and take a look."
"Don't enter the battlefield. Also, be careful." Haiyi knew that she had learned a lot of ninjutsu from the Second Hokage. Now that Orochimaru had been reincarnated as the Second Hokage, and she saw her idol beating up the Third Hokage, she would probably learn something new, right? (End of this chapter)
