Gaara woke up again.
This time he found that he was not hanging in front of the ship, but lying on a relatively clean hospital bed.
His body was still wrapped in bandages as always, and the smell of disinfectant all over his body was even stronger.
Gaara woke up instantly.
His gaze wandered around, finding no one within a few meters.
He also saw a huge gourd placed by the bed, covered with adhesive tape, as if it had been repaired by someone.
That was the gourd that Naruto had shattered.
"Genjutsu?"
Gaara's first reaction was that he was under a Genjutsu, after all, he had run over wanting to kill the pirates, and he had previously wanted to challenge Whitebeard.
Under such circumstances, how could the pirates possibly give him such good medical conditions?
And how could they have repaired the shattered gourd for him?
Gaara took a deep breath and made a seal with both hands: "Release!"
Although he is not good at Genjutsu, he can also release Genjutsu Ninjutsu.
After all, Rasa is very worried that Gaara, a failing Jinchuriki, will be controlled by someone else's Genjutsu and eventually lose control.
In this way, the village would be in danger.
This led to the first Ninjutsu that Gaara learned in his life being the Ninjutsu to release Genjutsu, rather than the classic Three Body Technique of the ninja.
But Gaara found... the scene in front of him did not change.
"Not Genjutsu? Or... is this Genjutsu too good?"
Gaara unhesitatingly pulled out a few infusion needles inserted in his body, glanced at the dripping blood from the needle hole, and gently licked it with his tongue.
A pair of vigilant eyes kept wandering and observing every corner, and finally carefully stood up from the sickbed.
But before he could react, the door was suddenly pushed open.
Gaara was suddenly startled, he decisively made a seal, wanting to attack.
"You little brat are quite lucky!" Until Tsunade's voice suddenly sounded: "Other Jinchuriki who were caught here, in less than half a day, the Tailed Beast in their bodies was transferred away."
"The Tailed Beast in your body is still in your body, and that old man specifically asked me to treat you. It seems that Whitebeard is quite interested in you."
After Tsunade finished these two sentences, her head tilted slightly, and an invisible wind blade almost flew past her ear.
It was a Wind Release Ninjutsu used by Gaara!
"Hey hey!" Tsunade didn't change her face, she complained dissatisfiedly: "What do you mean by this little brat? I worked hard to treat you again, but you attacked me?!"
Gaara didn't bother to listen to Tsunade's words, he just quickly left this place.
After several beatings, he finally realized that the Whitebeard Pirates were not something an eight-year-old child could touch.
Even if he is a Jinchuriki, even if he can borrow the power of the Tailed Beast, he cannot shake the huge Whitebeard Pirates.
"Wind Release: Mirage Hide Technique!!!"
A handful of sand floated out of the huge gourd, accompanied by Gaara's Ninjutsu, under the combination of wind and sand, it made Tsunade's eyes a yellow blur.
At least in the naked eye's vision, she couldn't see Gaara.
And at this excellent opportunity, Gaara quickly approached Tsunade, he stooped down, wanting to crawl out from under Tsunade's crotch.
But when he just ran to Tsunade, a fair jade foot suddenly stepped down and stepped on Gaara's head.
Only heard a "thud" muffled sound, Gaara fell to the ground on the spot, he was stepped down by Tsunade.
"Little brat, you look down on me too much, I am after all the Sannin Tsunade!"
Tsunade rolled her eyes.
Her foot didn't use too much force, just suppressing Gaara, making him unable to get up.
Gaara tried to struggle, but found that this woman's strength was outrageous, his face was always in close contact with the floor, and he couldn't struggle free from Tsunade's trampling.
Looking down at Gaara, Tsunade sighed.
She had also learned about Gaara's past from others.
She knew this was a little brat with a rather pitiful past.
Tsunade began to speak: "There's no need to overreact, no one wants your life, the Whitebeard Pirates have dealt with so many Jinchuriki, and only Three-Tails Jinchuriki has died at their hands."
"Even if the Whitebeard Pirates want to take the Tailed Beast from inside you, they have methods to safely extract the Tailed Beast from you, and you, will not be in danger of life."
Tsunade paused, then continued: "You've seen it too, right? With your strength, you can't escape. After three seconds, I will move my foot, and I suggest you stop thinking about running away."
Three seconds later, Tsunade did indeed move her foot.
Gaara rubbed his head and slowly stood up.
He heard what Tsunade said.
Mainly because this woman is also outrageously strong, she is blocking the door here, Gaara knows that he can't escape at all.
The next moment, Gaara's eyes widened.
Because his feet were directly off the ground.
He looked incredulously at Tsunade in front of him, not expecting Tsunade to pull this move on him.
Gaara felt a kind of awkward humiliation.
Because he was directly lifted up by Tsunade holding the collar of his back!
"Let go of me quickly!"
Unfortunately... his struggle in front of Tsunade seemed like a kitten flapping its limbs.
Tsunade threw him onto the sickbed with one hand: "Don't move around, stinky brat! Let me check how your injuries are doing."
Gaara soon found out that this woman seemed to be just checking his injuries.
Other than that, she didn't do anything to harm him.
After Tsunade finished checking, she first nodded in satisfaction with her medical skills.
Then she waved her hand dismissively at Gaara: "Alright, alright, as long as you don't move vigorously, there's nothing wrong with your injuries, little brat."
"Shooo, Shooo, don't blindly occupy the bed in the ward! Moby Dick is such a big place, go wherever it's cool!"
Tsunade gave Gaara an eviction order.
Gaara was stunned.
This woman let him go?!
His first reaction was not anger, but doubt.
Isn't it...
Isn't this room for imprisoning him?
Can he leave at any time?
Gaara couldn't believe it.
This woman just stopped him, just to check?
That's all?
Gaara was skeptical.
He instinctively thought this was a trap.
But he also knew that this was his only chance to get out of this room.
He took a deep breath, carried the huge gourd on his back, and carefully made his way to the door.
Then he looked at Tsunade cautiously again, and found that Tsunade didn't care about him at all, so he turned around and left quickly.
"She really didn't follow..."
As Gaara walked down the dim corridor, he kept looking back three steps at a time: "What's going on?"
He couldn't figure out the current situation at all.
In the end, Gaara made seven turns and eight turns in the cabin corridor of the Moby Dick, and finally came out.
He saw the sunlight outside.
He came to the deck.
"It's those guys!"
Gaara saw Naruto, Sasuke, and Neji at first glance, he had a very deep impression of these three people, because he had fought with these three people before.
"Hehe, little friend, are you awake?" Just then, a gloomy voice sounded from the side.
Gaara's pupils shrank, he quickly turned his head to look, and found a woman with a large chest standing quietly next to him.
If it weren't for her speaking, he wouldn't even have noticed someone standing next to him!
Orochimaru licked his lips, glanced at Gaara with interest: "Tsk tsk, if I had met you a few months ago, you might have become my backup container!"
It's just a pity that Orochimaru now has a better container.
He looked down on gifted brats like Kimimaro and Gaara.
"Your name is Gaara, isn't it?!" Another voice sounded, the voice came from above.
Gaara's face was tense, he looked up.
He saw that it was a girl with brown-colored skin.
She had a pair of unique wings on her back and was flying skillfully above him.
"My name is 'Fu'! Would you like to be my friend? You are a Jinchuriki, and I am a Jinchuriki, I think we will definitely become good friends! Hahaha!"
Fu landed with a flap of her wings, she showed a sunny smile and reached out a hand to Gaara.
Gaara frowned, did not shake hands with her, but questioned her: "You are also a Jinchuriki?!"
Fu, who belongs to the carefree faction with no mind, didn't mind Gaara's rudeness.
She giggled: "Yes! I am the Jinchuriki of the Seven-Tails!"
"...Hmph." Gaara gave a light hum, didn't say anything, but the astonishment in his eyes was always unable to hide.
The kind of smile on Fu's face, Gaara had never shown in his life.
Both are Jinchuriki, why is her mentality so good?
Hasn't she experienced some tragedies?
Then why should I experience those things?
Without comparison, there is no harm.
Gaara was very disdainful of Fu on the surface, but in fact, he was a bit envious of Fu.
"Hello! Hello!" At some point, a figure with golden hair suddenly appeared in front of Gaara.
Gaara was scared and his hair stood on end.
Gaara stared at Naruto: "You?!"
His impression of Naruto was very deep.
Because it was Naruto's one hit that shattered his big gourd and almost killed him.
Naruto scratched his head, grinned and said: "Haha, sorry! I used a little too much force before. This gourd was repaired by Sister Shizune for you."
Sasuke walked over with his arms folded, he looked at Gaara: "There is no killing intent as before, it seems that after fainting a few times, he was finally learned his lesson."
Gaara's forehead was full of blue veins.
Although Sasuke's tone didn't mean to provoke, the ambiguity of this sentence was too great.
Neji also came over: "You are strong."
He said seriously to Gaara: "We can spar again if we have the chance."
"..."
Gaara didn't speak.
He always felt that the atmosphere was strange, why didn't these pirates have any hostility towards him?
Didn't they regard him as an enemy before?
And, Gaara found that the attitude of these pirates was incredibly good!
He had never seen such friendly people in Sunagakure Village.
But in the Whitebeard Pirates, he saw a group of friendly people.
This made Gaara feel a very strong sense of disconnection.
It made him feel unreal.
"Gurararararara!!" It wasn't until Whitebeard's loud laughter sounded that Gaara came back to his senses.
A huge shadow enveloped Gaara's body. An invisible tension began to permeate his heart.
The first time he faced Whitebeard, Gaara was full of killing intent because he was narrow-minded.
The second time he faced Whitebeard, Gaara gritted his teeth because he wanted to fight to the death.
Now this third time, Gaara's mentality has changed again.
He knows he shouldn't fear anyone, but the fear that creeps into his heart is something he can't control.
When he turned around, he could see Whitebeard's tall and burly figure standing in front of him!
"...Why didn't you kill me?!"
After a long silence.
Gaara asked this question.
Whitebeard looked down at Gaara with hollow eyes, his rugged face full of hearty smiles: "Gurararararara, if I want to kill someone who has been betrayed by their family, wouldn't that be too cruel for that person?!"
Betrayed by family?
Gaara was taken aback.
The next second, he realized that Whitebeard seemed to be talking about himself!
Betrayal... these two words are simply filled with Gaara's entire childhood!
Gaara's eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes.
He looked up at Whitebeard.
But what surprised Gaara was that Whitebeard's gaze was something he couldn't describe.
In that gaze... there was no disgust, no anger, no hatred, no deception.
"Little brat, I've heard all about you."
Whitebeard slowly leaned down, he reached out a big hand to Gaara: "Don't let hatred and anger change your character and don't become so dark and brutal for those rotten people, that you don't even recognize yourself!"
Whitebeard smiled, he continued: "If you think Sunagakure Village is a place full of betrayal, if you think Sunagakure Village has no place for you... then perhaps, the Moby Dick of the Whitebeard Pirates, can make you feel a real home."
Gaara was a bit dazed, not understanding what Whitebeard wanted to say.
"Gurararararara! Little brat, be my son!"
Whitebeard laughed loudly: "If you hold a grudge against your biological father who betrayed you, then I will turn the entire Sunagakure Village upside down! Gurarararararara!"
An invisible Conqueror's Haki swept all around.
The clouds in the sky were completely dispersed, but it did not affect anyone on the ship.
Gaara was completely stunned.
He stood there like a thunderbolt, staring blankly at Whitebeard.
Gaara never dreamed...
One day, someone would say such a thing to him.
...
