Chapter 106

In the sealed space.

Kaze had furrowed his brows into a character resembling the Chinese character for "river" as he watched Naruto playing outside.

"Did this idiot think of me as a summoning beast?"

"It seemed that after the trust and reliance values were high, he genuinely didn't care about saving face."

Kaze found himself somewhat missing the previous Naruto, who had been stubborn, distrusted him, and wouldn't let him go outside.

Although the current Naruto greatly trusted and relied on him, he also irritated him.

The Nine-Tails beside him also tried to hold back laughter, turning to look at Kaze with a dark expression.

"Hey, Kaze, aren't you going out?"

"Your dear little brother is summoning you~"

Upon hearing the teasing from the Nine-Tails, Kaze's icy gaze glanced over.

Just one look froze the Nine-Tails' smiling face.

It immediately turned into indignant anger.

"That's right! You're right!"

"That brat outside really did act like an idiot!"

After speaking, the fox face quickly changed, replacing the gloomy expression with a wicked smile.

"How about it, do you need my help? I could forcibly intervene and infuse power to make that brat lose control and go berserk."

"I guarantee that even if the weak little brother of my own is released, it would still be defeated!"

"No need." Kaze withdrew his gaze and looked back outside.

...

Outside.

In a quiet waiting moment.

Gaara, who had caught Naruto, was also intimidated by Naruto's momentum just now.

With a face full of vigilance, he stared fixedly at Naruto as if facing a formidable enemy.

And Naruto, who was waiting with closed eyes, realized that Kaze was completely ignoring him!

Inwardly, he anxiously shouted Kaze's name.

As a minute passed.

Seeing Naruto still unchanged, Gaara's expression gradually became ugly.

Coupled with Shukaku's constant taunts and mockery in his mind.

His entire face twisted with anger.

"Bastard, how dare you deceive me!!!"

"Since you won't let the monster inside you come out, let me help you!"

Angry Gaara enlarged his body once again, like a small mountain!

Carrying Shukaku's chakra-infused sand, he created a terrifying wave.

In an instant, it transformed into a colossal claw, slamming heavily towards Naruto!

Bang!

Roar!

The faint red tailed-beast cloak couldn't withstand this terrifying force.

Naruto instantly coughed up blood, completely pinned down and unable to move.

"And you!"

Gaara turned his head towards Sakura and the others.

"Your deaths are all because Naruto refused to use that power!"

Swish!

As the words fell, Gaara once again formed a towering claw with sand, tearing towards the three of them!

"Stop!!!"

Naruto, eyes wide with fury, no longer cared if Kaze was angry.

He directly retreated his consciousness into the sealed space!

In the sealed space, Kaze, not having an external consciousness, remained calm and looked at the suddenly appearing Naruto.

Naruto also noticed something was wrong, incredulously looking at Kaze.

"Kaze, why didn't you go out?"

"What about outside?"

Turning his attention outside, Naruto saw his external self lying unconscious on the ground!

Thinking of Hinata, Kiba, and the imminent attack, he anxiously shouted.

"Hurry! There's no time! Kaze, quickly go out and save Hinata and Kiba!"

Kaze waved his hand in response, "No hurry, the flow of time inside is slightly slower than the outside, there's still time."

"Now let's talk about the conditions for me to intervene."

"Conditions?" Naruto was initially puzzled.

Then, tapping his own head, he revealed an expression that conveyed, "I understand what you mean."

"No problem. After rescuing everyone, I'll let you use my body until the exams are over!"

Naruto thought that Kaze, not coming out these days, must be feeling a bit pent up.

"In the future, just tell me directly when you want to come out, as long as it's not during ramen time!"

Kaze: "???"

What does he mean by using his body until the exams are over? Isn't he asking him to take the exams for him? He really has no shame!

Feeling a headache coming on, Kaze spoke with a stern face, "Don't play around."

"I have only one condition for intervening: after I go out, you can't disturb my actions or seize control of the body impulsively."

"No problem!" Naruto nodded repeatedly like a bobbing chick.

Then, he remembered something and added, "But you're not allowed to randomly kill people like before, except for enemies!"

"I promise." Kaze had already guessed that Naruto would make this request.

He didn't hesitate and nodded in agreement. After all, the boundaries of enemies were quite blurry for him. Those who attacked him were enemies, and those who treated him with malice or hostility were also enemies.

Outside.

Just as Gaara's claw was about to tear into the three of them, a twisted smile appeared on his face.

But the next moment, his smile froze on his face.

A sharp pain surged from his right hand, and a familiar voice sounded from behind!

"Although you've already transformed into a tailed beast, the strength of this body is really nothing to boast about."

It turned out that Naruto, who had been pressed to the ground, had somehow appeared behind Gaara!

In Naruto's hand was a massive sand claw, broken off cleanly, enveloping Gaara's right hand!

"You!!!"

Gaara, belatedly realizing what was happening, was cut off by the intense pain in his right shoulder just as he uttered a word!

Crack!

Blood gushed out from the cut, and the severed part spouted large amounts of blood, causing Gaara incredible pain.

"Ah!!!"

"That's my arm!!!"

Screaming in pain, disbelief and shock appeared on Gaara's face.

Naruto, or rather, Kaze, pulled the corners of his mouth, revealing an extremely bloodthirsty smile.

"Not Naruto, it's Kaze!"

Still in pain, Gaara's sand that was binding the three of them collapsed.

Looking at this Naruto, whose temperament had completely changed, even Kiba instantly recalled the Kaze that appeared a few days ago!

"Great! Naruto called him out, we're saved!"

Hinata and Shino breathed a sigh of relief, excitement showing on their pale faces as if they had survived a disaster.

"So fast! In an instant, he directly tore off Gaara's arm!"

"The change in strength is simply on two different levels from what he showed just now!"

On the other side, spectators like Kankurou and others also witnessed Gaara's arm being severed in an instant, with no time for him to resist!

Their faces were filled with disbelief and deep fear.

But soon, Temari reacted, swiftly flying away.

"Avoid it! Under these injuries, Gaara will definitely go berserk!"

"The complete form of Shukaku, the one-tailed raccoon, will soon come out and destroy everything!"

As if confirming Temari's words, the massive amount of smoke shrouding the sky suddenly appeared!

The terrifying tailed-beast chakra swept across the entire battlefield, creating a horrifying wind pressure.

Then, a sharp and piercing laughter echoed throughout the entire space.

"Hehehehe!"

"He's passed out, I'm finally free!"
