"Qianyu!!!"

Seeing Chiba's current predicament, Naruto spoke with concern.

He never imagined that the situation would reverse so quickly.

Seeing this, even the comments section started to discuss it.

"Is this little Calabash Brother really that strong?"

"Yes, I always thought that Qianyu was the strongest among his peers, but now I find out that there are always stronger people out there."

"It seems that Chiba is going to have a tough battle this time."

"What's the point of fighting? Based on the strength Qianyu demonstrated before, she would be completely helpless against an enemy like this!"

"Where are my teammates? Help! Teammates, please save me!"

The viewers in the live chat were very worried about Qianyu.

However, Qianyu, who was deemed to be out of options, simply smiled and said, "What makes you think that I didn't take your gourd into account?"

"What?" Gaara was taken aback.

Then he saw Qianyu holding the hilt of the sword, raising it high at an angle, striking a rather peculiar pose.

Meanwhile, in Sasuke's Sharingan vision, light blue chakra once again filled Chiba's body.

This is the Hao Shui Bracelet, which Qian Yu later upgraded from a proficient to an expert level by investing a huge sum of money in, enabling it to enhance the entire body.

Only with the enhancement of the Great Water Arm to her entire body could Chiyu use the move she was about to use.

That was the sword move of the master-level White Fang Sword Technique!

"White Fang Sword Technique - First Form - Modified Slash Dance!"

As the longsword slashed down, Qianyu's body followed the blade, transforming into a storm of sword blades.

The spinning blade, like the sharp teeth of a tiger, easily tore through Gaara's automatic sand defense, turning the tough sand wall into shattered yellow sand.

Gaara still wanted to manipulate the shattered sand to continue blocking the way.

But no matter how many times he gathers the sand, without sufficient quantity, the sand will eventually turn into even more fragmented ashes under Qianyu's ferocious onslaught.

In just a few brief clashes, the yellow sand that Gaara had gathered using his gourd was completely destroyed by Chiba!

"Gaara!!!"

Amid Temari's scream, the swirling storm of sword blades successfully engulfed Gaara.

"Aaaaaah!" Gaara's pained, distorted screams echoed from within the storm.

Hearing such cries, for some reason, a gloom suddenly settled over everyone present.

"Oh no, Gaara!"

Temari, worried about her younger brother, wanted to go and help him.

But then, two figures, one in yellow and one in black, blocked her way.

Where do you want to go?

"I can't let you interfere with Qianyu's battle!"

Sasuke and Naruto spoke in turn.

"Damn it!" Temari gritted her teeth in anger.

When she turned to look over there again, she only saw that the sand sea summoned by Gaara had swallowed him and Chiba together, and had destroyed a large section of the wall.

"Qianyu!"

This time, it's Naruto and Sasuke's turn to worry.

However, their worries did not last long.

In just a few breaths, Chiba leaped out of the piled sand, brandishing his long sword, and arrived at Naruto and Sasuke's side in a few flashes.

That's why she uses the Slash Dance skill; its blade storm effect is all-around, making her immune to attacks from behind.

Otherwise, if you just want to break through Gaara's defense, you can use First Form: Slash.

Upon seeing Chiba jump out, Sasuke immediately asked, "Chiba, how did it go? Did you defeat that person?"

"They must have been defeated!" Naruto shouted before Chiyu could answer. "How could they not be defeated after taking that kind of attack?"

However, Sasuke merely glanced at Naruto disdainfully: "Idiot! You mean your eyes can see more clearly than my Sharingan?"

"Huh?" Naruto then realized that Sasuke had already activated his Sharingan. He was speechless for a moment and could only look to Chiba for help.

But Qianyu couldn't give him a definite answer either.

"No!" Qianyu shook her head: "Besides the sand defense, there's another layer of sand defense on that guy's body surface!"

"What, there's another layer of defense?"

Naruto was shocked by Chiba's words.

In his opinion, Gaara's sand automatic defense was already amazing, but you tell him that there is another layer of defense behind Gaara's automatic sand defense!

"Did you break it?" Sasuke pressed.

That's the question he really wanted to ask.

With the Sharingan's insightful perception, Gaara's Sand Armor had already been observed by him, but the subsequent outcome was blocked by the sand sea Gaara returned to, so he didn't see it.

“It’s broken!” Qianyu gave an affirmative answer first, but then immediately shook her head: “But it’s only broken a little.”

Gaara's Sand Armor is very tough; even Lee, with his third gate, could only shatter it, let alone completely break through the fourth or even fifth gate.

Compared to Xiao Li of the Three Gates, Qian Yu's only advantage is that she uses sharp weapons instead of blunt weapons like fists and feet.

therefore……

After giving Naruto and Sasuke a few perfunctory replies, Chiba turned her gaze back to the collapsed alley wall.

There, the yellow sand, which had been dormant for some time, began to stir.

Soon after, Gaara rose from the sand.

Just as Chiba had predicted, Gaara's body was now covered in cracks.

And beneath that crack, faint traces of blood were seeping out!

Clearly, those were the wounds inflicted by the Thousand Feather Longsword!

Seeing Gaara like this, Temari was stunned: "Oh no, Gaara is injured!"

A deep sense of pessimism instantly filled her heart.

After all, she knew all too well what it meant for Gaara to be injured!

Having just entered Konoha, Temari was exposed due to her inexplicable battle rampage, and she never expected it to end like this.

Given their cold-hearted father's character, such a disastrous plan would likely result in imprisonment even for their own children.

Even if it's not prison, it's still the kind of extremely difficult task that will make you suffer terribly, and it's not impossible to die if you're not careful.

But then I thought, what does it matter if I go to jail or die?

At least I could escape this situation: having to deal with a cold-hearted father, carefully care for my youngest brother, and also balance the needs of my middle brother, all while working myself to the bone and maintaining high standards for myself.

The moment the thought of giving up arises, the world suddenly becomes vast.

"That's enough!" Temari, having calmed herself down, looked up at the sky, sitting like an old monk, her face expressionless, ready to await Gaara's destined rampage.

However, Temari waited for quite a while, but there was still no sound from Gaara's side.

"Huh?" She turned her head in confusion, looking in Gaara's direction.

It was only then that Temari realized that Gaara was also looking at her.

And Gaara was acting very strangely at this time.

He was seen with his arms crossed, his fingers gripping his arms tightly, as if he was struggling and enduring.

However, only one of Gaara's eyes showed a struggle and endurance, while the other was filled with tyranny.

And that eye, once filled with savagery, slowly began to show signs of Gaara's struggle and forbearance under his suppression.

This scene instantly stirred up a myriad of emotions in Temari.

This clearly shows that Gaara is rational, knows what's important and what's urgent, and is controlling himself from going berserk.

However, Gaara only glanced at Temari before looking away, as if his glance was merely a coincidence.

The next second, an inhumanly tyrannical aura instantly overwhelmed everyone present!

"Oh, how terrifying!"

Sensing such an imposing aura, Sakura, who was supporting her teammate not far away, suddenly turned pale and trembled like a leaf.

Naruto and Sasuke's expressions also changed drastically.

"What a terrifying aura!"

"Is this really the same person as before?"

"He's even more terrifying than Zabuza!"

"Qianyu!"

The two of them looked at Qianyu.

Although he didn't say much else, the worry in his eyes was unmistakable.

And there was something they didn't say: although they had always trusted Chiba's intellect and decision-making, they still felt that Chiba's decision to provoke Gaara this time was a bit rash.

Of course, now that the deed is done, discussing right and wrong is pointless; the key is how to resolve the situation.

However, when faced with the gazes of the two, Chiba smiled faintly and looked at Gaara.

Because in his rage, Gaara, although he suppressed Shukaku, also unleashed a considerable portion of his power.

Large amounts of yellow sand undulated around him as if they were alive, and the surrounding walls and cement floors looked as if they had been gnawed away, with pieces missing here and there.

However, it was not devouring, but assimilation. Whenever the undulating yellow sand, like a living thing, touched the walls and land around Gaara, a portion of the walls and land touched by the yellow sand would turn into yellow sand and join it.

In this way, with just a few undulations, the yellow sand around Gaara piled up into a small dune the size of a truck.

Then he raised his hand high, and a large amount of sand began to rise into the sky, forming a giant wave of yellow sand that was six or seven meters high!

Looking at Chiba, Gaara's eyes flashed with a cruel and bloodthirsty light: "Woman, I want you dead!"

"Mom, I'll love your blood!"

After saying that, Gaara waved his hand forward, and a giant wave of yellow sand crashed down.

It is foreseeable that once such a huge wave falls, it will be like a flood bursting its banks, instantly engulfing and destroying the entire alley!

Seeing this, Chiyu's eyes showed satisfaction.

Because that's the effect she wanted.

As for the ending? What ending?

In this conflict, it was never her who needed to end it, but Gaara!

Chiyu reached out and grabbed Naruto and Sasuke, preparing to help them avoid the crashing wave.

Unfortunately, Gaara's giant sandstorm was not captured on film.

Because just as his hand was halfway through its swing, a calloused, rough, and large hand grasped Gaara's arm.

Then, without seeing what the newcomer did, the wave of yellow sand, which had just been poised to surge, suddenly slid down softly, as if its spine had been removed.

At the same time, Gaara seemed to have overexerted himself; his eyes rolled back, his body went limp, and he fainted.

The person who came over helped Gaara up and then looked over.

Only then did Qianyu and the others realize how peculiar the newcomer's attire was.

His appearance was nothing special; he had the weathered look of someone from the Land of Wind. However, the headscarf covering his head was hanging down halfway, obscuring half of his face.

"Who is this?"

Looking at the newcomer, Naruto asked in a daze.

"Maki-sensei!" Temari exclaimed in surprise.

"Maki!" Qianyu said, her expression turning serious as she read the name of the person who had come.

Maki, the most elite of Sunagakure, is a man who, even if you include freakish Jonin like Kakashi and Guy with their Mangekyou Sharingan, still ranks among the top Jonin!

If it weren't for the improved Gaara suddenly appearing out of nowhere, he would definitely be the Fifth Kazekage!

This person is much more difficult to deal with than Gaara is now!

Sure enough, after subduing Gaara, Maki immediately looked over: "What happened?"

"Mr. Maggie, it's like this..."

Temari quickly ran forward and began to recount her story.

"Is that so? Is that so?"

Upon hearing Temari's words, Maki's sharp gaze suddenly turned as piercing as a knife.

He asked coldly, "Is this how the people of Konoha are?"

With his words, an invisible pressure was rekindled.

Suddenly, Naruto, Sasuke, and the others felt as if they were walking in the desert and had suddenly fallen into quicksand, helplessly feeling the yellow sand filling their mouths, noses, and ears, unable to breathe or exhale.

Qianyu felt slightly better, but she still felt tightness in her chest and had some difficulty breathing.

This made her somewhat unhappy.

Why do they all like to intimidate people with their imposing manner?

So what if you kill a lot of people, have a lot of chakra, and a strong mind?

Okay, that seems really impressive.

Faced with Maki's questioning, Chiyu frowned, thinking about how to stall.

At the same time, she was also puzzled: how come the enemy's Jonin had all arrived, but Kakashi hadn't?

Fortunately, Kakashi didn't keep her waiting for long.

"Wow, it looks really lively here!"

A flippant voice came from not far away.

"Kakashi-sensei!" Naruto exclaimed in surprise upon hearing the voice.

Sasuke smiled and said, "You've finally arrived, Kakashi!"

"Sorry, a black cat blocked my way here, so I'm a little late. I'm so sorry!"

Kakashi, without batting an eye, delivered his lame excuse.

But this time, everyone felt completely at ease.

According to the law of conservation of emotion, Qianyu is at ease, while Maki is naturally upset.

However, there was nothing that could be done about it. The moment Maki saw Kakashi, he knew that this matter would most likely come to nothing today.

Moreover, while he did manage to temporarily subdue Gaara using a secret technique, Gaara transforms into Shukaku when he falls asleep, so his technique cannot last long and must be dealt with immediately.

Maki could only glance at Qianyu and the others with displeasure: "My disciple overused his power in a fit of rage and needs to be settled."

"However, people of Konoha, remember this: I, the Sand Village, will definitely seek justice for what happened today!"

After saying that, Maki quickly disappeared with Gaara in a flash.

Temari followed Maki's footsteps and left.

"call--"

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief as they watched the Sand Ninja leave.

"That was quite a fierce battle!"

"With such results, the Sand Village's genin are truly full of hidden talents. No wonder they only sent this one team this year!"

Looking at the large crater eroded by Gaara's sand, Kakashi was filled with emotion.

But at the same time, he looked at Chiyu and the others, puzzled: "How did you end up fighting with the Sand Ninja?"

"This one……"

Hearing Kakashi's question, the group, who had just relaxed, tensed up again.

The group exchanged glances, and finally, Kyo Kusagami, who had been silent the entire time, gritted his teeth and stepped forward.

"I'm sorry, it's my fault!"

"I was carrying a bento box and wasn't looking where I was going, so I bumped into the Sand Ninja. Then I acted arrogantly, which angered them."

"Chiyu got into a conflict with the other party because she stood up for me..."

"Is that so?" Kakashi looked at Chiba.

He could accept this reason.

However, Qianyu shook her head: "Yes and no!"

"Eh?"

Qianyu's answer surprised everyone.

Then they heard Qianyu continue, "My classmate was bullied, so of course I wanted to fight back for him."

"But more than that, I want to fight that guy."

"Why do you want to fight?"

Sakura couldn't understand Chiba's thought process.

To make such a big fuss just for a fight, and then to frame others, is just too much.

"Is it that hard to understand?" Chiba gave Sakura a strange look. "The Chunin Exams are about to begin. Those Sand Ninja are obviously here to participate. It's essential to understand the strength of the strong opponents before the exam, right?"

"Eh!!?" ​​Hearing Qianyu's words, everyone exclaimed again.

"The Chunin Exams?" Naruto looked completely confused. "What are those?"

Kakashi looked even more surprised: "I didn't tell you this, did I? How did you know?"

"Just a guess, it's not that hard to guess, is it?"

Chiyu looked at everyone with feigned confusion: "Although the Sand Ninja are our allies, they don't usually appear in the village. In that case, we just need to think about the reasons why they could appear in the village, and then summarize a few pieces of information to guess."

As she spoke, Qianyu twirled her sword gracefully and sheathed her longsword.

Qian Holmes Yu said calmly, "This is just simple deduction (reading the script), my friend!"
