"You don't understand what true strength is." Gaara

"With great power comes responsibility. " Naruto

"That way of thinking will get you killed." Gaara

''Then I welcome death with open arms. " Naruto

"Then die." Gaara said as he created multiple sand spears.

Naruto used his space magic transport the spears heading for his teammates. He let the other spears hit him.

Naruto took the blast head on and disappeared with the bijuu bomb.

"Where did he go." Shukaku thought until he saw a explosion occur high above the clouds

Shukaku laughed at this. Shukaku decided to kill Sasuke and Sakura next.

Just as he was about to Shukaku felt as his body freezing. He looked to see his lower body was frozen.

"What the." Shukaku

"Why can't nobody kill me." Naruto said as he appeared in front Shukaku

"How is he alive." Shukaku said shocked

Shukaku could see that Naruto was crying.

"If things continue like this. I will be forced to annihilate humanity." Naruto said as his eyes glowed red. His thoughts filled with nothing but contempt for humanity

Kurama saw that Curse was influencing Naruto.

"Naruto calm down. What would Natsu think if he saw you acting like this." Kurama

"Natsu" Zeref said before thinking of his dear brother

This helped Naruto snap out of it.

"Thank you Kurama. You stopped me from doing something foolish." Naruto

"No problem Naruto." Kurama

Shukaku saw that Naruto was distracted. He decided to fire another bijuu bomb.

Before Shukaku could finish making it. Naruto made it disappear.

"It's over." Naruto said before firing a large death ball at Shukaku.

When Shukaku was hit by it he and Gaara died. Afterwards Shukaku body dissolved and Gaara's transformation came undone.

Naruto caught the boy. Before Shukaku's chakra could leave Gaara's body. Naruto revived him.

"I lost." Gaara Thought as he opened his eyes

"Master may I ask.Why would you fight for anyone but yourself." Gaara

"I don't like seeing others get hurt Gaara. " Naruto

"Master." Gaara

"Unlike me Gaara you have the opportunity to connect with others. Don't push away others. I could tell your brother and sister care deeply for you" Naruto

"They do. Even though I treated them badly." Gaara

"Yes even though you did. They still love you. Well heck I would still love my brother even he did try to kill me" Naruto

"You are crazy you know that" Kankorou said as he and Temari

"Thank you for the compliment.'' Naruto

Kankorou and Temari rolled their eyes at this.

They picked up Gaara. They thanked Naruto before leaving.

As they were jumping through trees.

"Don't push others away." Gaara Thought of what Naruto said

"Kankorou Temari I am sorry" Gaara

Kankorou and Temari were surprised by this.

''Don't worry about it." Kankorou

With Naruto
"Well today was certainly fun. I can't wait to take a long nap" Naruto said

"You did stop an invasion singlehandedly. You earned it." Kurama

"I should get these two to the hospital." Naruto said as he saw the sand that binding them was gone.
