Red sand dust

"This... I was wronged! Miss Saya and I are innocent!"

Daimaru said as he rushed out, ready to explain to Temari.

A quarter of an hour later, a dejected Daimaru came back.

"Why... didn't you find Temari?"

Nighteye asked curiously.

"Looking for it and finding it!"

"Then why are you still acting like this! Is it because Temari doesn't believe your explanation?"

"Worse than this!"

Daimaru hugged his knees dejectedly, squatted on the bench, and sighed,

"Temari actually said to me: Congratulations!"

Yemu and Qian looked at each other and understood immediately.

If Temari got angry and even beat Daimaru, it would at least mean that she cared about Daimaru.

The understatement of "congratulations" proved that Daimaru was not taken seriously by Temari.

"How about I explain it to you?"

It was the first time for Chiwa Yami to see Daimaru, who had completely lost his usual vitality as if he had lost his soul.

Qian, who couldn't bear it, said comfortingly,

"Temari still trusts me!"

"No!"

Daimaru shook his head,

"It's my fault! I shouldn't have done things that aroused criticism and even got Miss Saya involved in the scandal..."

Although Miss Saya may not care about it, it is still not good.

The key is Temari's attitude, which greatly affects Daimaru's confidence.

"Don't be too disappointed. Maybe Temari is just angry and doesn't really hate you at all..."

"real?"

"It's possible!"

Looking at Daimaru's hopeful eyes, Qian replied with complicated emotions,

"You have to confirm these yourself!"

"Um!"

The big pill seemed to be burned up, and the surrounding colors turned into faded black and white.

Looking at Dawan who exuded an aura of being kept away from strangers, the people around him naturally moved away, for fear of being angered by the bad-tempered Dawan.

After Yeme and Qianhan exchanged a few words, they didn't bother Daimaru to lick his wounds.

"Qian, you can't do it!"

Back to back to support the dozing Yemu, suddenly whispered to Qian,

"It's okay to be behind Temari. I'm almost surpassed by that weird woman Saya!"

"You...know everything?"

"Just found out!"

Yemu sneered,

"You are just too honest!"

"You lied to me?"

"Actually, I feel it all the time, but I just haven't confirmed it yet!"

Nighteye is petite in body but not young mentally.

"That sinful man actually made Qian worry about him and hooked up with one female ninja after another. It's really too much."

"He's just an idiot who can't figure it out!"

Qian sighed,

"I used to think that Daimaru's hope of being able to win Temari's favor was slim, but now, I don't think so anymore..."

"So, you gave up? A relationship was stillborn before it even started! You should also learn from Miss Saya and ask Daimaru out to confess..."

"I told you it was a misunderstanding!"

Qian reached out and rubbed Yemu's fluffy ponytails, and playfully tied the ends into a knot.

"Right now, I'm very satisfied with my current situation! Love affairs are too confusing. I'll wait until I have a clear idea. Now, what I value more is the friendship with Temari and the relationship between us as teammates!"

"Girls in love are all fools after all!"

Yemu pushed Qian's big hand away dissatisfied and muttered:

"Ignore that idiot Daimaru, do you think Temari knows that you secretly like Daimaru?"

"I definitely don't know!"

Qian replied matter-of-factly.

"Why? Temari is obviously so smart..."

"This intelligence and that 'smartness' are not the same thing..."

Qian Qing smiled and said,

"According to my many years of friendship with Temari, this young lady who is very smart in other things may be even more emotionally insensitive than Daimaru!

He can neither recognize others nor understand his own heart, so he is a complete idiot in love..."

There are some convoluted things that Temari won't understand at all if she doesn't explain them clearly to her.

"Those are really...two idiots who are quite right for each other!"

Nighteye couldn't help but sneer.

"That's why I said, if Daimaru has no competitors, there is still a lot of hope for the two of them to get married!"

"I don't know what you like about Daimaru. He is obviously just an idiot with a bad personality. He is not as handsome as Ziluo and has a very bad temper..."

"We are just ordinary Suna ninjas, limited to Sunagakure Village. If we die, we can only toss in the Kingdom of Wind. Temari and Daimaru are different. Their vision has long transcended the shackles and has fallen on the entire ninja world... …”

"Then, can we keep up with Daimaru?"

In fact, it is already very reluctant now.

In more than half a year, Yeme and Qian have become a lot stronger. It can be said that they have not worked hard, but the speed of their strength improvement is still far behind Daimaru.

When facing Iwa Ninja, although the two of them could still help, they also vaguely felt that even Daimaru alone might achieve similar results.

If, when the time comes when they can't even see their backs, where will the two of them go?

"Go to sleep. For us, surviving this war is the first priority. Have a good rest, maybe there will be another mission later."

…

After lunch, Gaara went for a walk somewhere. While Kankuro was lubricating some of the puppet joints that were not very flexible, he glanced worriedly at Temari, who had been wiping the three-star fan.

"Hey, you've been wiping the same spot for almost half an hour. Is it time to change your position?"

"That's right! You observe very carefully!"

Temari showed a warm smile,

"What do you want to do by hanging around here?"

"Is this really good?"

Kankuro put down the puppet parts in his hand.

"what do you mean?"

"You hit Daimaru hard this time. Aren't you afraid that he will really get paired up with that weird Saya?"

"What does this have to do with me?"

Temari showed an exaggerated smile and said loudly,

"I'm not who he is, so can I care who he has a tryst with?"

"Then you shouldn't take it out on the Samsung fan! You've rubbed off the paint..."

Kankuro sighed;

"With your appearance, which sand ninja dares to marry you? Only that idiot Daimaru dares to shamelessly come up to you..."

"Oh? Is this how you see your dear sister? I'm just an unreasonable and ill-tempered young lady who can't get married?"

Temari said viciously to Kankuro.

"That's not what I meant! At the very least, you have to listen to Daimaru's explanation! If you really don't care about anything, there is no need to drive him away mercilessly..."

"I'm tired! If you think it's okay to say some useless things to him, go find him yourself!"

…

As for Miss Saya, she was leisurely cleaning the sand from the puppet, and said nonchalantly to Shana, who was cursing Daimaru through gritted teeth:

"Is that what people say outside? Interesting!"

"Sister, this rumor that damages your reputation must not be tolerated; and that Daiwan must be punished..."

"It's the relationship between a creditor and a poor man..."

Miss Saya didn't think those ridiculous scandals could have any impact on Daimaru and herself.

"It's too demeaning to be acquainted with those guys who don't understand the situation! Shanai, you have become more and more unruly recently, and you dare to interfere in my personal affairs. Am I too indulgent in your behavior?"

"Sister, I just don't want you to be deceived by others..."

"How could I have been deceived?"

Miss Saya raised her eyes and stared at Shanai unkindly and said,

"Not only did I not suffer any loss this time, but I made Daimaru owe me a large amount of money out of thin air!"

Shanai wanted to say more, but was driven away mercilessly by his sister Saya.

Zi Luo, who was watching with cold eyes, was amused by the relationship between the sisters.

"What a leisurely rich man!" 』

Nowadays, Ziluo, who is still fighting for his status, has no time and no desire to get involved in these trivial matters that have nothing to do with ninja training.

Zi Luo also had mixed feelings about the man at the center of public opinion.

Zi Luo was very grateful to Daimaru for saving him from a hopeless whirlpool and giving Daimaru a chance to become a ninja.

But Daimaru didn't seem to take this casual favor seriously, and he didn't seem to like himself, so Zi Luo, who wanted to repay something, didn't know where to start.

However, it is precisely because of his status as a bystander that he can clearly see that without the identity of "creditor", the bond between Miss Saya and Daimaru will probably be broken.

That mysterious and unscrupulous genin was simply not something that a lady with little common sense like Miss Saya could catch.

"You still want to lend him so much money even though you know that he won't be able to pay it back anytime soon!" It’s really… interesting! 』

…

It wasn't until night fell when Daimaru, Yeme and Qian went out on patrol that Daimaru returned to normal from his frustrated state.

"Are you okay?"

Nighteye asked with concern.

Daimaru is the core of the team, and it would be terrible if he is not in good condition.

"It's been fine for a long time!"

Although Daimaru remained motionless all afternoon, he had actually fallen asleep, so he was in good spirits now.

"I thought you were going to be depressed for a long time!"

"How can it be?"

Daimaru moved his somewhat stiff joints and twisted his sore neck.

"Whether Temari is angry or doesn't care about me at all, it's still the same as before!"

The stupid boy who always makes people angry seems to be able to interact with Temari normally, which can be regarded as a big step forward. Even if it doesn't work, it will just start all over again.

Even if there are occasional setbacks, Daimaru has no intention of giving up.

"Love will always go through a test, and I have been mentally prepared for it.

Besides, besides my love for Temari, there are many things I want to do..."

Tonight, it's quite satisfying to let the bastards of Iwa Ninja see the power of Lord "Red Dust".

"That's the best thing you can think of, Daimaru!"

Qian tilted his head and said with a smile,

"I wish you success!"

"What a shame! Who do you think you are talking to? I am not so weak that you need to cheer me up!"

"Let's go, I hope tonight will go well too!"

Under the cover of night, Daimaru led two teammates and entered the dangerous killing field again.
