Why didn't Kazekage kill Gaara himself?

I'm just making that up, but the point is we'll never know if Kazekage was easily beaten, or if it was a good match. Hey, Oro might have stabbed him in his sleep, who knows.

That's sure the easiest way to kill somebody, still one can assume that a ninja and especially a Kaze, would have a light sleep and wake up with the slightest disturbance in his environment.
I can think of Hyuuga Hiashi. The guy who tried to kidnap Hinata didn't wake her up but obviously woke up her father.
Also, considering how the Kazekage was, it's not far-fetched to think had awaken people guarding him, especially with Gaara around. And those guys would fight and wake up the Kage.
Maybe those two guys were guarding outside his room got killed without waking up the Kage.
Well, he may have trusted Oro enough as to sleep in the same room with him....
Yeah, even though I can see holes in the killed in his sleep theory, that's one I'd go for, right after the we will never know assertion.

You can't kill the Sand Man!!!! How would you ever get any sleep?!?

the kazekage sucked compared to orochimaru.

i can't believe this discussion is still going on. it was purposely not explain in full detail to show how strong orochimaru is and how unimportant it to explain minor details that don't effect the future story line.

[Insomniac]

its been established that Orochimaru is one of the strongest nins to ever live, he was going to be hokage ffs

obviously Kazekage was weaker, and its not really important.
Also Kazekage could have just been testing Gaara.

Then again, Sakura seems to have nice parents...but that didn't help any.

lol.

I would go with Kazekage manipulating - not fearing. The timmy (p.ball anyone? ) factor was just used as a cover to get people to go along with the ass-ass-ination attempts. If Gaara really was a problem - they could've just offed him while he was doped up or something. I mean - a headbutt by Naruto debilitates him.

btw: I thought the brother-in-law was a sister-in-law. I'm so confused. He had boobies... someone clarify?

[ech3lon]

its because kazekage still loves gaara as his son.........

Nope, Yashamaru's a guy. Go over in the thread 'Yashamaru: Dude or drag queen' to check it all out.

Secondly, BakaShinji, a headbutt debilitates him AFTER the whole drag down fight. It's Naruto's finishing move, I highly doubt it would have made a difference if Gamabunta hadn't already helped deal with Shukaku, plus, Gaara was woken from his false sleep from it, and we learned from Sasuke vs. Gaara that halting the transformation in the middle has consequences for Gaara.

ok lasaire.. you're right.
