Naruto: If I ask you to kill Sasuke, you will become a succubus?

Chapter 204 Hormone Problems

In the future I was born into, I only met Lord Kankuro, because Temari had already died in the battle.

Shortly after Gaara, one of the Five Kage, died at the hands of Uchiha Sasuke, Temari avenged her brother and also died at the hands of Uchiha Sasuke.

So I always thought that they had a good relationship. I was surprised when I found that Gaara was so cold in his attitude towards them during the Chunin Exam.

Later I thought that Gaara might have improved his relationship with his sister and brother in the process of becoming the Kazekage, but at this moment, looking at Temari's surprised and happy face, I felt that Gaara had indeed closed his feelings, but Temari might have had a close feeling towards him from the beginning.

Seeing the Sand Village behind her recognize us and subconsciously prepare for battle, Temari immediately stopped them and said, "No one is allowed to take action!"

She stopped at the front, blocking her subordinates behind her and keeping a distance from us to prove to us that she had no ill intentions.

"Gaara...can we talk?"

He looked at me, as if to tell the other party that I was the one who could make the decision.

But I can't concentrate right now.

How far away are Deidara and the others?

Will they be encountered by the Sunagakure ninjas and will they be attacked?

Thinking of this, I even felt that I heard an explosion in the distance, but Gaara and Temari didn't react at all, so it was obviously just my illusion.

I tried to focus on Gaara and not think about Deidara for the time being: "Listen to what she wants to say?"

I think Gaara must have noticed that I was distracted, so he deliberately asked for my permission for everything he said and did to divert my attention away from Deidara.

Just looking at his calm face, I started to wonder if I was overthinking.

Gaara looked at Temari: "What do you want to say?"

Temari held up her hands to show she wouldn't attack, "Can I come over, a little closer?"

With Gaara and I's current strength, we wouldn't be afraid even if Temari suddenly attacked, so we nodded and agreed to her request.

She pursed her lips, stared at Gaara closely, and walked over slowly.

"Gaara... did you know about the Kazekage's... father's death?"

"I know."

"You didn't attend his funeral. Do you want to... go see him?"

Gaara's tone became even colder as he said, "Not interested."

"I know you must have a lot of grievances, but as the Kazekage, father also has his own difficulties..."

Gaara frowned and interrupted, "If all you want to say is boring things like this, don't waste our time. We have other things to do."

But actually we had nothing else to do. After all, we had made time at the beginning, thinking of coming here to meet Deidara, and then concentrate on learning earth escape.

I can understand Gaara's hatred for his father. As for his indifference to his father, I am just an outsider and have no right to comment.

The only thing I can do is to cooperate with his feelings, stay with him when he wants to stay, and leave with him when he wants to leave.

Temari looked at me, then looked at Gaara: "...Is there really nothing in the Sand Village worth your nostalgia?"

"..."

I don't know what these words reminded Gaara of, and he hesitated and remained silent for a moment.

I gently touched the back of his hand with the back of my hand, encouraging him to express his inner thoughts honestly, and I would support him no matter what.

He received my signal, lowered his head and whispered in my ear: "Zhaolu, I want to go see my mother and Yashamaru..."

He misunderstood Karura and Yashamaru for many years, until he was in Konoha, and watched with me the most authentic memories of his mother that were recorded when he was first born.

He has no feelings for his father, but he must have a soft spot in his heart for his mother and Yashamaru.

Of course I said, “Sure.”

Gaara accompanied me before, but now my plans have changed. If Gaara has new plans, it’s okay if I accompany him instead.

Gaara frowned, "But now... I'm afraid I can't go back."

Indeed, with our current identities, the Sand Village probably won't allow us to enter openly.

If Gaara wants to go back and take a look, then maybe we can try to sneak in.

"If you want to go back to the Sand Village!" But Temari seemed to see something from our expressions, "I promise not to leak the news to anyone! I can take you in... You can leave at any time, I will never stop you."

This guarantee sounds incredible.

But considering that Temari is the daughter of the Kazekage, even though the Kazekage is dead, she may have some privileges. Maybe she can really take us in and let us leave without alerting anyone - that would really save a lot of trouble.

Gaara looked at me, "Do you think she can be trusted?"

"I think...she really cares about you."

Hearing this, Gaara lowered his eyes and looked at Temari: "I want to go pay respect to my mother and Yashamaru."

"Okay!" When Temari heard that Gaara wanted to go back to the Sand Village, a surprised smile suddenly appeared on her face: "I can arrange it."

We are closer.

Temari came up to us and I told her what had just happened, hiding my relationship with Deidara.

The Akatsuki organization is not well-known yet, but when she heard that Scorpion of the Red Sand had appeared, she left all her subordinates in this small town to be on guard, leaving her alone with us.

A Sand Ninja said worriedly: "They entered our border without permission... Lady Temari, you are alone, if something happens...!"

"Gaara is a ninja from the Sand Village! He doesn't need permission to return home!" Temari said firmly, "Who said I'm alone? I'm with my biological brother, why should I worry about my safety?!"

That dashing heroic demeanor and decisive courage, which were mostly suppressed by fear and caution towards Gaara during the Chunin Exams, was the first time I saw it.

I couldn't help but whisper to Gaara, "Temari is so handsome."

Now, it was Gaara who seemed a little absent-minded: "Really?"

Is it because you want to see your long-lost mother and uncle?

Temari quickly arranged her subordinates and took us to the Sand Village.

She asked us to disguise ourselves as her subordinates, so that as the daughter of the Kazekage, no one would conduct a detailed inspection of her.

Gaara said, "Will the elders agree with you acting so arbitrarily?"

Temari was very happy that Gaara would take the initiative to talk to her: "So, just don't let them know."

I couldn't help but ask out of curiosity, "Does the Sand Village have any ideas for the next Kazekage?"

"In what capacity are you asking? If you are asking as a ninja from the Hidden Mist Village, I will tell you that this is a secret of the Hidden Sand Village. But if you are asking as a friend of Gaara, I will tell you... some elders are interested in Kankuro."

I can feel that Temari's every word and action is playing the emotional card. I think Gaara must have heard it too, but he said nothing and had no reaction.

Regarding his sister's sincerity...does his emotions resonate with it?

"Kankuro..."

Kankuro-sama becomes the Kazekage…?

He was indeed the leader of the Sand Village ninja after Gaara and Temari's death, but I don't remember him having the title of Kazekage.

I asked, "What about the other group of elders?"

Temari sighed, "I."

I widened my eyes in surprise: "Huh?"

"Because Kankuro said he has no interest in the position of Kazekage. Now, the only child of my father in the Sand Village, besides him, is me."

I asked curiously, "If Temari becomes the Kazekage, she will be the first female Kazekage in history, right?"

"Do I have the courage to do that...?" Temari muttered to herself and smiled bitterly, "Where's Gaara?"

Gaara said, "What?"

Temari asked, "What does Gaara think about the position of Kazekage?"

"It has nothing to do with me. I am no longer a ninja from the Sand Village."

"You are." Temari said, "As long as you come back. The village has not issued an execution order for you yet, everything can be discussed."

Gaara said coldly: "They just want Shukaku to go back, right?"

The place where we met was about a day away from the Sand Village, and we needed to camp on the road at night.

After dinner, the moon had risen. In the vast desert, it looked big and round.

Gaara said to me, "Come here, Asaro."

I looked back to see Temari setting up the tent and walking towards Gaara, "What's wrong?"

We walked to a sand dune and Gaara asked, "Do you want me to go back to the Sand Village?"

I was slightly stunned: "If you want."

"Then you just want me to go back." Gaara lowered his eyes, feeling a little bad, "You always think I will go back, always want me to go back, and think that I will be more helpful if I leave you than if I stay with you, right?"

"No!" I explained quickly, "I just feel that, Gaara, you could have been a hero of the Sand Village... but now you have become a traitor to the Sand Village and can no longer become a 'Kage'. Is this really a good thing?"

"..."

"Besides, I think if Gaara stays by my side, we can definitely make the Hidden Mist Village a better place. But if Gaara returns to the Hidden Sand Village, maybe both villages can change, but the speed will be a little slower... Don't talk as if I deny your talent. No one knows better than me how good and powerful Gaara will be in the future!"

"You've been thinking about so many things by yourself, but you didn't tell me." Gaara frowned, "Didn't you say that you should speak directly?"

"Because I think that's just my personal little emotion. I can handle it by myself. It's not worth talking about it and making everyone upset..."

Gaara looked at me and said, "Asaro."

"Ok?"

"Are you in a bad mood right now?"

"…A little. But it could also be that I'm tired, and the breakup with Deidara just now also had some impact. I really thought that 'becoming friends' was too simple… I've been through so many things, and I've been thinking about it over and over again every day, but why am I still making no progress and still so naive…"

The more I thought about it, the more I felt like a failure. Suddenly, Gaara asked, "Are you about to have your period?"

“…Huh? Why are you suddenly saying this?”

"Because every time before your period, you will feel inexplicably low, depressed, have very negative thoughts, lack confidence in yourself, and feel anxious and restless."

I've been working with Gaara and Neji for so long, so it's not surprising that they know about my menstrual period, but I never thought that one day he would take the initiative to bring up this topic with me, nor did I expect that he would actually notice it.

"Now that you mention it... it seems so. So, I'm in a bad mood now because my period is about to come?"

Once you realize that those low and depressed thoughts are due to the influence of hormones, you will feel that things are not really that bad.

I suddenly felt a sense of relief - based on experience, as long as I can hold on for a while, those bad feelings will disappear on their own.

Gaara said, "Usually, you always move towards your goal very firmly - remember? Your ideal?"

We said in unison: "I will let fate flow in the direction I want."

Gaara smiled. "Yes. That's the aura. Since you are letting fate flow in the direction you want, why should you worry that my fate will not be perfect after being changed by you? You will definitely lead me to a better future, right? I have always had confidence in you."

He looked so determined that I even envied him: "Won't Gaara be shaken?"

"Chaolu, you have never made me waver."

But maybe it was the effect of the premenstrual period, Gaara's words made me think: "...Is it because boys are not affected by hormones...? I suddenly feel a little angry at boys who don't have menstrual periods."

"But if we are disappointed and frustrated, there is no way to let go of the burden through hormone changes, and we can only keep feeling upset. Is it worth getting angry?"

I thought about it - what if the depressed and pessimistic mentality during the hormone period continues and cannot disappear on its own?

How terrible...

"If that's the case..." I put myself in his shoes and thought about it, feeling a little scared: "I feel a little pitiful for boys."

Gaara smiled noncommittally: "So, don't always think about abandoning me. Otherwise, won't I be even more pitiful?"
