Chapter 542.2: Gaara
In the minds of many local shinobi, Gaara was a jinchuuriki and a monster. Although Gaara hadn't done anything like this in the past two years, the fact that he was killing Shinobi from his own village couldn't be so easily forgotten. No one wanted to help him at this moment, because no one could say that he wouldn't suddenly decide to kill all those who came to his aid.
Besides, Gaara had already become a Kazekage plus he was a jinchuuriki, so protecting himself from external enemies was his main duty. Basically, many shinobi did not want to help him, not because they did not want to, but because they could not dare to approach Gaara in the already ongoing battle.

The smoke and dust from the explosions dispersed, revealing a view of a large ball of sand.
Gaara managed to hide in it and remained unharmed.
— Su Xiao shouted, and at the same time, he pulled the thread back, causing it to fall down at a high speed.
Deidara was just about to throw a clay bomb, but stopped when he heard Su Xiao's shout and started preparing more clay bombs. If Su Xiao failed, he would have to intervene in this fight.
Su Xiao fell down at high speed, and just before the new sand ball was about to fully form around Gaara, he stabbed it with his sword.
With a single movement, the Dragon Flash sank deep into that sand ball. Gaara's sand ball wasn't weak and could protect him from a large number of attacks, but the Qing Gang Yin energy destroyed the chakra in the sand that got in the way of the sword blade, which caused the sand ball's defense to weaken significantly.
Suddenly, a long blade slid inside the sand ball, causing Gaara to flinch. The blade bit into his side and didn't do much damage.
— Shinobi who is good at swordsmanship-with the sand that floated in the air outside of his sand ball, Gaara could clearly see the situation outside.
Gaara immediately started folding the hand seals inside the sand ball, and a trickle of yellow sand rushed towards Su Xiao's torso. - Binding Sand Coffin.
Su Xiao's chest felt heavy, but he continued to throw punch after punch at Gaara's ball.
Just when the Gaara sand was about to completely entangle Su Xiao and crush him, something unexpected happened.
*Pouf*
Light blue spikes covered the entire ball of sand. Blood immediately stained the sand, and the sand that was shrouding Su Xiao abruptly fell to the ground.
When Su Xiao once again stabbed the Dragon Flash into the sand ball, he used the "Azure Spikes" technique. It was an attack he'd developed back on the ship, but this was the first time he'd been able to test it in real combat.
The sand ball surrounding Gaara dissipated, but more than a dozen new spikes appeared at the tip of the Dragon's Flash. These spikes immediately rushed forward and pierced Gaara's body, but due to his timely reaction, only one of his arms was disabled.
— Sand...
Just as Gaara was about to activate his new technique, Su Xiao was already right in front of him and kicked him in the stomach.
*Boom!*
Cracks began to appear on the surface of Gaara's body, as if it were made of ceramic. It was his sand armor. Her principle was to cover her entire body with sand with chakra.
But even though his normal attack had been stopped, all of Su Xiao's spikes had been able to easily pierce through his armor earlier and were still sticking out of his body.
Although Gaara wasn't weak, without Tailed's melee strength, he was no stronger than a normal chicken.
With another punch, Su Xiao lifted Gaara off the ground and rushed towards him with his sword in hand. If Gaara is hit by this blow, his sand armor will be no better than ordinary paper.
— Gaara, let me help you, you can't handle this guy! There was a sharp roar in Gaara's head, but he ignored it. He couldn't use the power of the tailed one, because once he accepted its help, he would immediately lose control of himself.
Su Xiao with the sword in his hands immediately struck Gaara's chest without any hesitation.
Given Su Xiao's character, if he didn't need to capture jinchuuriki alive, he would definitely try to chop off his head.
Was Gaara strong? The answer was quite unusual — he wasn't strong right now, not because he didn't have enough time, but because he was holding the tailed one back inside of him.
Gaara's pupils narrowed as the long sword sliced through the air and came within a very dangerous distance of him. Although he knew that he would end up being seriously injured, he wasn't going to back down.
Just as Gaara was about to attack Su Xiao in return and exchange with him, a sharp sound suddenly rang out above him.
*BOOM!*
A strong wind hit Su Xiao's body and pushed him back.
After adjusting his center of gravity in the air, he landed smoothly on his feet.
Temari appeared at Gaara's side, holding a large iron fan. Although she was only nineteen years old, she looked more mature.
Temari's intervention allowed Gaara to avoid injury.
Su Xiao wasn't considered a worthy opponent for Gaara before the rapprochement, and Gaara wasn't considered a worthy opponent for Su Xiao after the rapprochement.
— Hidden Sand Village can't stand by any longer, " Temari stared at Su Xiao. The intent in her eyes was too obvious.
— Deidara, buy me five minutes, I'll deal with her first.
Deidara in the sky immediately dived down, and Su Xiao immediately stopped paying attention to Gaara.
Deidara will definitely be able to hold him for this time.
— Couldn't you just watch from the sidelines? Su Xiao asked and immediately rushed towards Temari.
