He carries an enormous gourd full of sand and has a kanji tattooed on his forehead that means \"love.\" From the first scene it is clear he is different: he stops Kankurō with a threat and his presence unsettles even the jōnin. In the Forest of Death, Team 7 does not see him in action, but the reader does: he crushes a Rain team with his sand without getting a scratch, and his siblings barely dare speak to him.

Gaara then crushes his opponent's arm and leg with Sand Coffin, and only Guy's intervention keeps him from killing him.

Hurt for the first time, he begins to transform into the Shukaku, the one-tailed demon sealed inside him. He chases Sasuke through the forest and faces Naruto and Sakura, who come to Sasuke's aid. That fight reveals his past: his uncle Yashamaru, the only person he trusted, tried to assassinate him on his father's orders and told him no one had ever loved him. From that day on, Gaara decided to be a demon who loves only himself.

The two collapse, exhausted. Gaara does not understand how someone who also grew up alone can fight so hard for others, and Naruto explains that his friends are what give him strength. Those words disarm him. For the first time, Gaara apologizes to Temari and Kankurō.

When Deidara of the Akatsuki attacks Suna to capture him, Gaara meets him in the air and uses his sand to stop a giant bomb aimed at the village, while the same villagers who once feared him cheer him on. Exhausted from protecting everyone, he is captured. The Akatsuki extract the Shukaku from him over three days, and a jinchūriki without their beast dies. Naruto, Kakashi, Sakura and old Chiyo arrive too late. Chiyo, who had sealed the Shukaku in Gaara when he was a baby, uses a technique that trades her life for his.

Afterward he seeks out Naruto to tell him what happened and ask him to stop carrying Sasuke alone. In the war, Gaara is chosen as the Alliance's field commander, and his speech before the assembled ninja becomes one of the Alliance's central moments: he reminds them that all of them, whatever their village, have suffered at the hands of the same enemies, and that they are no longer ninja of the Sand or the Leaf, but simply ninja.","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-516","pos":516},{"h":"His father","t":"On the front, Gaara faces Kage resurrected with the Impure World Reincarnation, among them his own father, the Fourth Kazekage.

Seeing what his son has become, he admits his mistake. Before being sealed, he reveals something Gaara never knew: the sand that always protected him was the will of his mother, who loved him.

When Madara tries to take the freed tailed beasts, Gaara wraps Madara in sand to seal him along with the beasts and fights to hold on to the Shukaku, his former tenant, which remembers its ex-jinchūriki's words about the heart and acceptance. Despite everything, Madara extracts the beasts. At the most critical moments, Gaara carries a dying Naruto to Minato and, together with Lee, Kakashi and Minato, deflects Madara's black spheres while Guy fights. For the boy once feared as a demon, defending the very tailed beast that tormented him is proof of how much he has changed.","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-669","pos":669},{"h":"Kazekage of another era","t":"Years later, Gaara is still Kazekage and has adopted Shinki, a boy with a power similar to his.

In Two Blue Vortex, the Land of Wind is under attack again, and Gaara risks his life to protect Shinki's team from the Claw Grime. His role is no longer that of the protagonist, but of a mature leader who backs the new generation, just as Naruto backed him when no one else would.","lvl":3,"ch":"tbv-15","pos":795}],"facts":[{"k":"Estado","v":"Alive","lvl":0},{"k":"Cumpleaños","v":"January 19","lvl":0},{"k":"Edad","v":"12–13 (Part I) · 15–17 (Part II)","lvl":0},{"k":"Altura","v":"148.1 cm (Part I) · 166.1 cm (Part II)","lvl":0},{"k":"Rango","v":"Genin","lvl":0,"ch":"naruto-35","pos":35},{"k":"Rango","v":"Fifth Kazekage","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-247","pos":247},{"k":"Afiliación","v":"Sunagakure","lvl":0,"ch":"naruto-35","pos":35},{"k":"Seiyū","v":"Akira Ishida","lvl":0},{"k":"Doblaje latino","v":"Eduardo Garza","lvl":0}],"techniques":[{"name":"Sand manipulation","kind":"tecnica","lvl":0,"article":"arena","ch":"naruto-59","kindLabel":"Técnica","pos":59},{"name":"Sand Coffin","kind":"tecnica","lvl":0,"article":"arena","ch":"naruto-59","kindLabel":"Técnica","pos":59},{"name":"Sand Shield","kind":"tecnica","lvl":0,"article":"arena","ch":"naruto-82","kindLabel":"Técnica","pos":82},{"name":"Sand Armor","kind":"tecnica","lvl":0,"article":"arena","ch":"naruto-83","kindLabel":"Técnica","pos":83},{"name":"Third Eye of sand","kind":"tecnica","lvl":0,"article":"arena","kindLabel":"Técnica"},{"name":"Shukaku transformation","kind":"modo","lvl":0,"ch":"naruto-134","kindLabel":"Modo","pos":134},{"name":"Sand gourd","kind":"tecnica","lvl":0,"article":"calabaza-gaara","ch":"naruto-35","kindLabel":"Técnica","pos":35},{"name":"Wind Style","kind":"naturaleza","lvl":0,"article":"futon","kindLabel":"Naturaleza"}],"quote":{"t":"We are no longer ninja of the Sand or of the Leaf.
