I'm sorry... Gaara...
We'll now be entering
What shall we do about the pesky flies?
They're moving
No problem.
We stalled them effectively.
Besides
In the end
Let's hurry and finish
We've got guests to greet.
You'll want to catch

It's conceivable that the nearby lands
will take advantage of this confusion
Don't think of this as
The teams that are ready
What's the matter
Is this really okay?
Is what okay?
Lord Gaara has been kidnapped.
And yet
for an enemy who may or may not come
It's an order from our superiors.
No way!
Lord Gaara is the Hidden Sand's...
our Kazekage!
I know that!
I'm sorry...
This way.
Right!
I don't like it.
What is it
Is it an enemy?
No
I don't feel any enemy presence at all.
Here they went so far as to use...
that powerful of a Jutsu
Then...
Could it be...?
They no longer need to stall us.

Naruto
Geez.
Why's that kid trying so hard to
And what in the world is he?
He's also a Jinchuriki.
He has the Nine-Tail sealed within him.
Indeed

But Gaara is a Jinchuriki Host

Naruto knows how Gaara feels.
After all
That's exactly why he feels
It doesn't make
if he's from the Leaf or the Sand.
For Naruto
who knows the same pain as he does.
Naruto's dream is to
He was frustrated when he heard
I see. So Gaara became
But at the same time
he was also very happy for
I won't be outdone by him!
I'll become the Hokage
Just you wait
Naruto has a mysterious power.
However small the words he exchanges
with everyone he meets.
I myself have lived a long life.
I've seen many things.
And in my own way
I've learned the nature
Learning that the alliance with
what I did was to create resources
I'm the one who used the Jutsu...
and forced the possession
After consulting with his father
What I did to protect the village
And now a village I avoided

What am I...in the first place?
I'm just a small...feeling.
It's finished.
Oh man.
In the end
It's exhausting every time
Ohhh
Good work
I've got a bad feeling
Damn it! Isn't there something I can do?
This is the place
Gaara is on the other side
It looks like they put up a barrier.
What's the plan?
Let's bust through!
No!
You're late... Kakashi.
