Inside the training ground on the outskirts of Kirigakure.

Kimimaro's original training opponent was Temari, but he was not satisfied with one-on-one combat, so after suppressing her, he suddenly attacked Haku, Gaara, and Kankuro.

He is now fighting against four kids at the same time with his own power.

"This guy is too crazy, I must teach him a good lesson today."

Although Kankuro is young, he speaks in an old-fashioned manner.

It's a pity that his strength is obviously not as strong as his mouth, and Kimimaro suddenly appeared close to him dexterously, and gave a solid kick on his stomach.

"Wooo!"

Kankuro let out a whimper, as he is lifted his feet off the ground, flew backwards, and fell heavily on the ground. Fortunately, the ground of the training ground was relatively soft, which played a great buffering role, so he was not that injured.

"Hey, it hurts..."

Kankuro sucked in a breath of cold air, grimacing in pain, then simply went out of the ground and turned on the rotten mode, "I admit defeat, and I won't fight you. Everyone here is a monster other than me."

The remaining three were also unable to resist Kimimaro's attack.

'Whoosh.'

He was extremely fast. He, who had just beaten Kankuro, turned around and went behind Gaara.

Gaara panicked and turned around quickly while hurriedly manipulating the sand around him to form a shield, trying to protect himself.

However the bone spear in Kimimaro's hand pierced the shield effortlessly and stopped less than ten centimeters away from Gaara's throat.

"Your sand shield is too weak. It's the same as the one made of paper. It's better to call it a paper shield."

Kimimaro sneered blankly, then retracted his bone spear and knocked Gaara to the ground with his elbow.

"Kimimaro, eat this!"

Temari shouted from the side. As Gaara's older sister, she has always doted on this lovely younger brother. Seeing her younger brother being bullied in front of her, she naturally couldn't bear it.

She quickly formed the seal and opened her mouth to spit out a dozen wind blades from her mouth, they moved at a very fast speed and approached Kimimaro.

Haku was not idle either. He also launched Ice release ninjutsu, creating several ice picks to sneak attack Kimimaro from behind.

"Humph."

Kimimaro didn't panic, he stood still in place without dodging or evading, instead a large number of bones suddenly appeared on the surface of his body, and he instantly turned into a hedgehog.

Next second, he spun violently, like a human-shaped spinning top, forming a three-dimensional defense with no holes.

Bone Dance.

'Bang bang bang!'

The wind blades and ice picks that attacked him were bounced off by his high-speed rotating. They not only failed to cause any damage to him, but bounced back the same way, causing Temari and Haku to be shocked.

Just as the two were busy defusing their own ninjutsu, Kimimaro attacked again, first he punched Haku in the face, knocking him down, and then kicked Temari away.

"You are too weak. There is no way for me improve to anymore by training against you."

After Kimimaro defeated them, he frowned and said that he was not satisfied with these opponents.

At this moment, Gaara stared blankly at Temari, his elder sister who was knocked to the ground, and then stared at Kimimaro stubbornly. He clenched his pair of small fists as a huge and terrifying chakra burst out from his body.

Seeing that his sister was being bullied, he instinctively awakened the one tail's power, who was sleeping in his body.

"Wait..."

Temari was surprised and happy when she saw this, and after recovering, she shouted in a clear voice, "I'll help you."

As soon she said that, she quickly formed seals and attacked Kimimaro.

"Finally."

The corners of Kimimaro's mouth curled up. In fact, he has a good relationship with them, and the reason why he is aggressive to them is to let them fight him with all their strength.

This is a battle between Jinchurikis.

Kimimaro's eyes flashed as red chakra emerged from his body and wrapped his body like a coat, it's the nine tails's chakra.

Seeing that the battle is about to heat up and enter a very dangerous stage.

"They are too hasty. They are using the power of the tailed beast because they are simply impatient."

Pakura frowned and instructed Yamato, "Stop them and let them calm down."

"Yes."

Yamato responded quickly and jumped out with a swoosh and entered the battlefield.

"Stop!"

He let out a loud shout as his hands skillfully formed a seal quickly and instantly separated a shadow clone, that rushed towards Gaara and Temari.

'Shhhhhh.'

Yamato's shadow clone raised his arm and shot several vines from his palm, entangling Gaara before he ran amok. The power of Mokuton's seal immediately suppressed the tailed beast Chakra him calm down, making his eyes clear and calm. He then stopped Temari by binding her too.

On the other hand, Yamato's main body was in trouble as he failed to take down Kimimaro.

'Swish.'

In the face of the oncoming vines, Kimimaro reacted quickly, by waving the bone spear in his hand and cutting them off. After that, he went straight to Yamato and fought the latter.

"It's a blood bone pulse."

Yamato's eyes narrowed, and formed a seal again, then his palm was aimed at Kimimaro, as a black word "Seal" appeared on the palm of his hand.

Next second, more thicker wooden vines shot out from his palm, like a flexible and vicious python, which easily stopped and bound Kimimaro.

But what Yamato didn't expect was Kimimaro being very tenacious, Kimimaro let out a deep roar from his throat, and a powerful force erupted again, breaking the wooden vines on his body one by one.

"What?!"

Yamato's pupils shrank, as he took a few steps back with a pale face. He looked at Kimimaro in horror as a red chakra tail appeared.

'Huh?'

Pakura too showed a surprised look when she saw this scene. Kimimaro, who was only four years old, was able to borrow the Nine-Tails chakra to form a tail behind him.

If this continues, it won't take long for him to master the ability to transform into a half-tailed beast.

'It's no wonder Kisame-sama chose to transplant the most powerful nine tailed beast into Kimimaro's body. Now that this Kid's talent and temperament are far beyond his peers, and he can even control the nine tails chakra a bit, he has the potential to become a perfect Jinchuriki.'

However, in Pakura's view, Kimimaro is still a bit rash. After all, he is only four years old, and he was still too tender compared to a thousand-year-old fox like Kyuubi, and he would easily be bewitched and played by the latter if he was not careful.

So-

'Whoosh.'

Pakura's figure flashed and disappeared from the spot in an instant, and when she reappeared, she was already in front of Kimimaro. She raised a palm and a Scorch ball was released. Before Kimimaro could react, his chest was attacked.

'Chi Chi Chi.'

A flaming circle was left on Kimimaro's chest, as he stepped back on the spot, knelt on the ground with a plop, and the translucent red tail behind him quickly disappeared.

In his body, the nine tails behind the iron fence is now blazing with fiery flames. He no longer lie down lazily, but instead rolled around in pain and roared angrily.

After finally extinguishing the flames on his body, he hurriedly warned Kimimaro:

"Brat, this woman is very strong. In this village, besides the terrifying tigress Tsunade, she is the second person you must not provoke, remember it."

After that, it pretend to be dead, fell into a deep sleep and did not move.

As the Nine-Tails chakra dissipated, Kimimaro finally woke up and realized that he had just crossed the line and made a big mistake.

"Sensei, I rashly used the power of the Nine-Tails to attack my friends and Yamato-senpai. Please punish me!"

Kimimaro hurriedly lowered his head deeply, his heart full of self-blame and remorse.

"Of course I will punish you." Pakura said coldly, with her eyes stern.

"Sensei, Kimimaro is not usually like this. He must have been impulsive just now, please forgive him."

Haku ran over and pleaded for Kimimaro. He and Kimimaro grew up in the same cradle, and the relationship between the two is better than anyone else, and it can even be said that they are as close as brothers.

Temari also took Gaara and walked forward, and bowed in front of Pakura, and took the initiative to plead guilty:

"Sensei, Kimimaro is not the one who went extreme first, it's us. Please punish us first."

"Are you all going to plead for Kimimaro? I didn't expect you guys to be quite loyal."

Pakura folded her arms across her chest with an indifferent expression, but her heart softened a bit. She was originally worried that the her students were competing with each other fiercely, and their relationship would deteriorate in the process of competing with each other and gradually became estranged, may even enemies.

Now, she seems to be overly worried.

Thinking of this, she shook her head and said coldly:

"Get up, stop bowing in front of me and look pitiful. If Yukino-sama sees it, she will think I am abusing you. Remember, this is the last time!"

"Thank you Sensei, I know that Sensei is the best."

Temari immediately ran to Pakura's side cheering, hugged her arm, and rubbed her face against her affectionately.

"Kimimaro, stop bowing, Sensei has forgiven you." Haku sighed in relief and helped Kimimaro up.

"Haku, I'm sorry."

Kimimaro said softly and he isn't able to forgive himself in his heart.

He actually always knew that he was different from Haku, Temari, Gaara and others. His family once staged a coup in an attempt to overthrow Mizukage's rule, only to be wiped out by Hoshigaki Kisame.

As a descendant of the traitor clan, Kimimaro could not have survived originally, but he fortunately received Kisame's mercy and became Haku's sibling, and was under the care of his mother, Yukino. He got a happy childhood.

What made Kimimaro even more flattered was that Kisame had high hopes for him and transplanted the half nine tails obtained from Konoha into his body. Although he was young, he also knew that this matter was of great significance.

Although Kisame has unfortunately died in battle, Kimimaro wants to live up to this expectation and sweared in his heart that when he grows up in the future, he will become as strong as Kisame.

At that time, he will personally avenge Kisame by killing Nagato.

Therefore, Kimimaro, who bears this belief, worked so hard and desperately trained. The time and effort he put in not only allowed him to surpass his friends, but also impressed Kyuubi, showing his initial recognition of him.

It was almost noon now, so Yukino and Karura came to the training ground carrying lunch boxes, which exuded a scent that made their mouths gulp.

"Grumble..."

When the children smelled the aroma, their stomachs rang out one after another. But without Pakura's orders, none of them dared to act rashly.

"Let's rest." Pakura said lightly.

"Great!"

They immediately smiled and scrambled to greet the two, like a flock of little birds waiting to be fed.

"Pakura-Sensei, and Yamato, let's eat together. I brought extra today."

Yukino waved at Pakura with a smile, while Karura organized the kids to spread picnic mats on the training ground, and took out bentos and arranged them one by one.

"Yes, Yukino-sama." Pakura agreed and walked over with Yamato.

Although it was noon, most of the sunlight overhead was blocked by the branches and leaves of the divine tree. Everyone enjoyed a delicious lunch under the shade.

"You don't need to train in the afternoon. I'll give you a holiday. Go back and take rest."

After eating, Pakura stood up and instructed them. She realized that the recent high-intensity practice was indeed a bit hard for these children, who are just a few years old.

"Sensei, I'm not tired, I want to continue my training." Kimimaro looked at Pakura firmly and pleaded.

"So are we." Temari and Haku, not wanting to be outdone by Kimimaro, added.

"No, I order you to rest, don't make me say it again."

Pakura's eyes turned cold and her attitude became very tough. They immediately shrank their necks and stopped talking.

Seeing this, Yukino looked at Karura and smiled at each other. Then she said to the children:

"Just listen to your Sensei, the combination of work and rest is for more efficient training. Let's go, I will take you out to play this afternoon, buy delicious food, fun things, and new clothes."

"Yeah!" When the kids heard that, they immediately smiled, Kimimaro too, restoring the innocence that a child of this age should have.

So, they walked out of the training ground talking and laughing and gradually moved away.

'Huh?'

Pakura, who was walking at the end, suddenly felt something and looked back.

For some reason, from the very beginning, she always felt that she had a pair of eyes watching them silently in the dark.

'Is it... a hallucination?'

After staring at the empty training ground for a while, she shook her head, no longer thought about it, and turned to leave.

Kisame's figure slowly emerged.

Watching Pakura and the others go away, he has his arrangements in mind for the tailed beasts that have not yet been dealt with.
