Red sand dust

The mission had just begun, and they encouraged their compatriots to prepare to escape. Even if they knew that what Daimaru said made sense, the three siblings still felt a little uncomfortable.

Gaara opened his eyes and said in a deep voice:

"There is no shadow in the ninja world that escapes from battle!"

"Indeed not, but you are not a shadow yet!"

Daimaru could understand Gaara's thoughts.

For him, who was targeting the Kazekage Godaime, giving up the mission and running back in despair was too unacceptable.

Kankuro said impatiently:

"It's so ugly, Daimaru. You don't even know who the enemy is, and you just want to give up on the mission. Do you think you don't take the village's orders seriously?"

"Um……"

Daimaru, who pondered for a while, nodded thoughtfully and said,

"What you said makes sense. Once you know who your opponent is, it's not too late to prepare to escape!"

"You guy, you don't understand at all..."

Some impatient puppet masters stepped forward, pointed at Daimaru's chest, and complained with some dissatisfaction,

"Why don't you have any sense of responsibility? As a leader, isn't it natural for you to lead your subordinates to complete their tasks?"

"Kankuro..."

Daimaru grabbed the puppet master in front of him by the collar and said seriously,

"It's you who didn't understand the situation! Our mission is to protect the homeless rain ninja who have been kicked out and cover the actions of our colleagues in Konoha. That's all. As for how to complete it, I have the final say. Don't act without authorization and cause trouble... …”

Letting go of his hand, Daimaru gently pushed Kankuro away.

"If you want to do something more and show off, you have to decide when. There are many internal conflicts in Sunagakure Village, and Konoha Village is not monolithic. It is too enthusiastic to help allies and falls on the wrong team, which is not necessarily a good thing... "

"I see, who called you a chunin?"

Kankuro, still unconvinced, stepped aside and no longer questioned Daimaru's decision.

"Very good, you finally understand the authority of high-ranking ninjas!"

Ignoring his brother-in-law's indignant attitude, Daimaru glanced at the others.

"No matter where the enemy comes from or which side they represent, we cannot separate. If we win, we will attack them without mercy. If we cannot win, we will disperse without any delay!"

If things go wrong, you can "pack up" everyone, throw them into the puppets and ghosts, and quickly leave the dangerous place without anyone being able to catch up.

"Of course, this is just in case we encounter a dangerous situation. Maybe everything goes well and we can go home safely before long..."

No one knows whether Daimaru believes these words.

As long as those "root" ninjas don't change their goals and focus on confronting Nagato, who has the Samsara Eye, they won't be able to survive.

How those Shimura Danzo's subordinates died depends on who takes action against them.

Later, according to Daimaru's idea, the Sand Ninjas "persuaded" the people from the Rain Country who were in the vicinity one by one. Of course, almost no one would be obedient, and basically all the people with bad intentions turned into Yushen. Part of the natural cycle in pristine forests.

Later in the night, it was time to change the shift. Daimaru yawned and looked at Temari who was approaching, preparing to take over Daimaru's night duty.

"Time is up?"

"Well, it's my turn..."

"Then be careful!"

Daimaru stood up and stretched comfortably.

"I'm going back to rest first. I've been really exhausted these past few days..."

It has started to snow in the northern countries, and the night breeze in Sunagakure Village is also slightly cool. In the virgin forest in the south of Kawano Country, it is still so humid and hot. The night climate affects the quality of sleep too much.

What’s even more annoying are the annoying mosquitoes that bite the skin, which are simply impossible to prevent.

"Daimaru..."

Temari called to the boy who put her hands on the back of her head and hummed a slang ditty in an unknown dialect as she walked towards the camp.

"Don't take Kankuro's words seriously."

"Um?"

Daimaru turned around and thought for a while, then realized that Temari was talking about what happened during the day.

"Well, if you didn't tell me, I would have almost forgotten..."

"I know!"

With Daimaru's temper, if he was really angry, he would beat someone on the spot. There is no need to hold it in and feel uncomfortable!

"He is just a little impetuous because he has not been able to find the opportunity to be promoted to Chunin..."

"So, as long as I have the chance, I want to perform well. I understand this!"

If there was no Daimaru, everyone would be genin, and there wouldn't be so many things.

There happened to be a benchmark for early promotion, which made the young puppet master who was one step behind a little anxious.

Young Kankuro is far less mature than Temari, who is more than a year older than him, and is still too impetuous. It doesn't matter when a person is immersed in his own world. Now that he has someone to compare with, of course he doesn't want to stay behind others for a long time.

"I will find an opportunity to persuade him. It is not a good quality to make one's own decisions in tasks!"

"As a sister, you are really worried! But I guess Kankuro won't appreciate it..."

Daimaru smiled and waved his hand,

"Don't worry about this matter. A man's mind is like the ocean. What does this little thing mean? After a while, it will be as if it never happened..."

"how do you know?"

Temari said unconvinced,

"He is my biological brother, how could I not care?"

Daimaru said:

"Don't always treat Kankuro like a child. He also wants to save face. It's fine if he is repelled by me. If you bring up old things again, it might arouse his rebellious psychology, which is not good..."

"Kankuro is different from you. He is not as thick-skinned as you..."

He sighed softly and said meaningfully:

"If you want to be a good sister who cares about your younger brother, you must first make Kankuro willing to listen to you. Knowing when to say less is more effective than long-winded preaching..."

"You mean, Kankuro and Gaara will think I'm too annoying if I'm too verbose?"

"How did I know? I don't have a sister..."

Daimaru paced, slowly lifted the tent flap and walked in.

"Impatient guy!"

Seeing Daimaru disappear from sight, Temari complained dissatisfiedly,

"Obviously I am the older sister, but those two little bastards Gaara and Kankuro are actually willing to listen to Daimaru's nonsense instead of relying on me..."

Since her two younger brothers became more and more familiar with Daimaru, although Temari lamented that the two finally had acquaintances outside of their family, she occasionally worried that she would be excluded.

But Temari never thought it would happen so soon. As Gaara and Kankuro grew up, they were no longer satisfied with their sister's care. Daimaru, a guy with an unscrupulous style, actually became more popular.

Even if there is a quarrel, there is almost no room for you to "step in".

As for Daimaru bragging about having a mind as broad as the ocean, Temari pretended not to hear it at all.
