Red sand dust

Daimaru himself felt that it did not last long, but in fact, in the "Waterfall of Reality", the acuity of his mental will was significantly reduced, which indirectly led to a huge error in his view of time.

This situation is relatively common in illusion applications. The practitioner feels that only a moment has passed, and a long time may have passed to the outside world. In the eyes of others, he just had a good sleep.

"To be honest, I haven't felt this way for a long time!"

Daimaru said sadly.

The few times that impressed me most were the few times I was "educated" by Kurama Yakumo's genjutsu-type blood successor limit, and when I was fighting Itachi Uchiha, I was almost teased by Hitomitsu Tsukuyomi.

In terms of coercive power, "Real Waterfall" is not as good as the illusion Tsukuyomi, but in terms of concealment and deception, it is obviously better.

Although generally speaking, there is no danger, but if you really failed to pass the test and were affected by the underlying will and sub-personality inspired by the "Waterfall of Reality", it would be a bad ending like "setting yourself on fire".

In any case, the "Waterfall of Reality" is really a good secret place, and its effect on cleansing the soul and sublimating emotions is really good.

There is another thing that Daimaru is concerned about, and that is the basis for the existence of this "Real Waterfall".

With Yunyin Village's shallow illusion skills, there is no way to create such a magical secret realm.

If it wasn't the handiwork of Kumo Ninja, it was most likely the result of the overflow of the giant turtle's ability, which was the foundation of this "drifting island".

For a big guy like this who has lived for who knows how many years and whose very existence represents an ecological community, it is hard to determine how strong Daimaru is.

Daimaru secretly speculated that among the nine tailed beasts, no one with seven tails or below would be a match for the giant island turtle in the marine environment.

This is a mobile fortress on the sea that is almost always silent, and there is no problem using it as a shelter.

In the past few decades, the Ninja Village, which is most likely to overthrow the dominance of Konoha Village, has an amazing background. It even has this thing, and can generously provide it for the use of "allies". It will definitely not be the only one with a trump card.

Originally, Daimaru wanted to take the opportunity to explore, but after looking at the sky, Daimaru reluctantly gave up.

In the distance, the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki's chakra was like a bright light in the night sky, so dazzling that it was difficult not to notice it.

The main master, the compatriots who accompanied him, and the cloud ninja who were looking after him were all approaching.

"I wasted too much time. I still can't do it today. If you have any ideas, please come back next time. It will be much more convenient if you know the place..."

Soon after Daimaru put away the barrier formation materials, cleared away the traces of his own existence, and left quietly, Uzumaki Naruto took the lead and appeared near the "Waterfall of Reality", looking at it blankly with almost no features. miniature waterfalls and gentle pools.

"This is it? It doesn't feel like anything special..."

Last night and this morning, Uzumaki Naruto, who had been warned many times, stepped on the trickling water and approached the place where the little puppet Temari sat.

…

"how does it feel?"

After a busy morning, after lunch and a short nap, Gaara sat by the window, looking out at the snowy peaks of the plateau, sometimes covered by rain clouds, sometimes covered by a sea of ​​rolling mist with rainbow lights flashing out.

"It's very good. I feel a sense of relief after the filth in my soul has been wiped clean! In fact, the most difficult thing for people to face is the past that they can't let go of!"

During afternoon tea time, Daimaru would not talk about heavy topics while chatting leisurely.

"A person's experience will largely determine his character. It is both wealth and burden..."

"Abandoning the past? Wouldn't that affect self-perception..."

Before Gaara could finish his question, Daimaru chuckled and replied cheerfully:

"I'm not giving up, I'm just letting it go temporarily! The past needs to be remembered, but you don't have to carry it with you for the rest of your life..."

For example, Nara Shikamaru, the Konoha ninja who was married to Temari in the original timeline and Daimaru's theoretical love rival, actually no longer has so much to fear.

In addition, over the years, there have been many ideas along the way, some have been realized, and some have been buried. These are the scenery on the road of life.

Also, I have been a ninja for almost ten years. Although not too many people have died under my hands, they are not just one or two. Are there no innocents among them?

In the battle that made him famous, Daimaru led the air combat troops and bombed the Earth Kingdom indiscriminately. Many non-ninjas were accidentally injured among them.

It's impossible to say that I don't feel a little guilty in my heart. If an indiscriminate attack order is issued, civilians must be affected.

Even so, Daimaru never regretted it.

"I'm not that noble of a person, but I won't put the blame on others, or shirk excuses like the vagaries of the world and no choice. Even if I were to go back in time and choose again, the result would probably be different. What difference will it make? To deny my past is to deny who I am now..."

"You are really... treacherous!"

A faint smile appeared on Gaara's face,

"Although I can't live as I want, I can still be free from external pressure!"

"That's because I have lowered other people's expectations of me to a relatively low point. You can't do that. Those things you did in the past need a more positive image to cover up..."

Daimaru was a naughty and mischievous kid when he was young, and few acquaintances would expect him to grow into a gentle and humble gentleman;

Gaara is not the case. The contrast between the murderous monster and the Kazekage Godaime is too strong, giving people the impression that it is either/or.

In other words, if you cannot become a village chief who is loved by others and fulfills his duties, the terrible Shura-like impression of the past will easily come to the minds of the villagers.

It's hard to choose between.

Gaara nodded reservedly:

"Now that I've decided to be a Kazekage, I've thought about it one day!"

Gaara didn't seem to want to talk about this topic, so he changed the subject:

"Is it always effective for people like you to just put on a strategy of 'I have no morals, and no one can kidnap me with morality'?"

"Um……"

Daimaru tilted his head, thought for a moment and replied,

"There are exceptions..."

"For example?"

"Basically, let's focus on the creators! Unless they are plagiarists or despicable thieves who steal their reputations, for the most part, they cannot hide their true feelings..."

For example, poets, novelists, screenwriters, directors, especially film directors, can easily instinctively expose their weaknesses during creation.

Creators who are good at depicting bad people and reasoning about crimes are not necessarily good people, but those who praise atrocities, beautify ugliness, and repeatedly trample on people's moral bottom line are definitely not decent people.

Real creators cannot hide their moral values, aesthetics, preferences, stances, views on good and evil, etc., and they can easily be revealed in their works.

Directors who are involved in private work like to appeal to the audience's IQ, kitsch poets will gradually lose their spirituality, and novelists full of violence will not be able to write beautiful things in the world.

"Revealing your true feelings, is your true nature spilling out? You said it before..."

Gaara understands that as he gets older and chats with Daimaru more and more, he can gradually keep up with the rhythm of the conversation.

"If you have no talent and rely on plagiarizing one or two poems, one or two novels, writing lyrics and music, just to pretend to be a cultural person, sooner or later you will be ruined. Except for those things that are full of craftsmanship and deceive laymen, the real creators The works you create can be understood by anyone who cares! Unless you wash your hands in the golden basin and retire, it is inevitable..."

"Then...who do I belong to?"

Daimaru grinned:

"Did you see it? This village is the work of you and me!"

Following Daimaru's finger, Gaara saw a light rain coming from far and near. On the sidewalk on the street, colorful raincoats and umbrellas began to appear, flowing as the people walked.

In the past, how could such a scene have happened in Sand Hidden Village?

"Yes, our hard work, spirit, and wisdom are all condensed in it! Everyone...has seen it!"

Therefore, even though Daimaru was notorious when he was a child, and the Playboy scandals never stopped, girls laughed reservedly, and boys frowned in disgust, but these are not the focus of Daimaru's masterpiece in life.

In terms of personal ethics, the majority of compatriots in Sunagakure Village have very low requirements for Daimaru, and their reputation is almost fine. As long as they don't give up, challenge public order and good customs, they can be scolded, despised and despised, and they can be discussed after dinner.

But in the realm of justice, Daimaru fought extremely steadily.

As long as there are still people who benefit from Daimaru's achievements in opening up new territories, drinking clear fresh water, and having no worries about food and clothing, Daimaru's status will be as stable as Mount Tai.

"Do you still remember the agreement we made? How to make the villagers have enough food and clothing, and make the country rich and powerful, I am better than you; how to make the compatriots spiritually strong and noble, that is your task..."

Body and soul, external objects and culture!

"I... haven't forgotten! I'm working hard..."

"So, don't worry..."

Daimaru Yun said calmly,

"The coming of war is never a joyful thing! If one day you issue a war mobilization order, and the people below enthusiastically sign up and shout to fight and kill, I will give you a lesson. After several years of being a prostitute, Ying, is this a bunch of stuff under the rule?"

It’s normal to have criticisms and conflicts!

Starting a ninja war was a last resort. Soldiers are important matters of the country, the place of life and death, and the path to survival. They must be observed. Different worlds, the basic principles are still the same.

We should not resort to militarism, but we should not be afraid of war. This is the correct concept.

"You...have heard everything?"

Daimaru spread his hands:

"I don't want to know about such a trivial matter. Isn't this someone asking me to come to my side?"

Some people want to contribute to the village, while others back down.

Those who want to make a fortune through promotion through military service, those who are opportunistic, and those who have no independent opinions. At critical moments, there will be no shortage of them.

"I didn't do it well!"

Rarely showing a trace of shyness, Gaara apologized softly, Daimaru waved his hand and said nonchalantly:

"This is not your problem! With the rapid expansion of Sunagakure Village, there will inevitably be problems. In more than three years, the number of ninjas in the village has increased five or six times, and the number of residents directly and indirectly controlled has increased hundreds of times. It is strange that there is harmony everywhere. !”

Among them, the most troublesome was the merger of the old nobles and Sunagakure Village forces. A large number of new people who joined had no intuitive understanding of the urgency and danger of the Fourth Ninja World War.

To be honest, in today's Kingdom of Wind, there are not many people who can really influence Gaara's decision. The two elders Chiyo and Ebizo are hard to find. Outsiders such as Maki are not reliable, and Daimaru is not easy to find either. , but there are all kinds of people under his command, and he is really the most down-to-earth force, so there are always dissidents who want to use Daimaru to check Gaara.

"At our level, the so-called conspiracies and tricks are actually of no use. The general situation is not what it should be, and the small details have no impact! Maybe someone puts pressure on you, but you have to withstand these yourself. Don't miss the opportunity of the Ninja Alliance. Formation!”

After a pause, Daimaru continued,

"Those annoying flies, I can't slap them all to death, so I can only drive them away! In formal occasions, I will not publicly support you. At this time, every comment I make is an injury to Feng Ying's authority. !”

Gaara breathed a sigh of relief:

"As long as you don't play it off and give them the wrong impression that we are at odds, that's enough..."

"Okay, okay!"

Daimaru chuckled,

"Don't worry, I'm busy. I have to keep an eye on whether the destined savior is reliable. I don't have time to play palace battles!"

As long as a group of people get together, a faction will inevitably be born, and a struggle for power will ensue. Daimaru is so fed up with this that he doesn't bother to be the Sixth Generation of the Kazekage. He has become worthy of everyone after being an agent for a few months.

"This time, when you come back, will you leave soon?"

"It's hard to say. I'll probably have to fight with someone, but I won't be back for another three to five months!"

The combination of Uchiha Sasuke and Uchiha Obito is still a relatively big threat, especially with the help of Yakushi Kabuto and the filth bodies he controls.

After Otsutsuki Toneri gets used to the transplanted Soke Byakugan and Rinnegan, if the enemy doesn't take the initiative to come, Daimaru will simply keep the other Rinnegan for experimentation.

After the lunch break, Gaara left, and only Daimaru continued to fish.

"Father, Feng Ying seems to have some concerns!"

Koyamabuki, who was taking a rest, did not monitor Uchiha Sasuke's movements for the time being. Instead, he sat across from Daimaru and chatted.

"Maybe... he is a little suspicious!"

Daimaru pursed his lips and chuckled.

There will be some instinctive perception between blood successors of the same kind who are too close to each other, especially magnetic release. Gaara was once a one-tailed jinchuriki, and even now he retains a large part of one-tailed shukaku's chakra.

As the current Feng Ying, one has access to a lot of top-secret information. If one has doubts about Luo Sha, whose pseudonym is Yama Luo, and Ye Cang, whose pseudonym is Yan Yanluo, it is possible that he may have other ideas.

This is different from Daimaru's previous big moves of going his own way, killing first and then showing off.

"If you doubt me, just doubt me, just don't tell him the truth! At a young age, you are becoming more and more cunning, and you even use it on your brother-in-law!"
