Sakura.

What?

I wonder if perhaps it would have been better just to tell Naruto the truth.

No, theres no way that I could have told him. Absolutely no way.

Sakura.

I think that you're underestimating Naruto.

I've located Sasuke.

That guy Tobi is right next to him.

All right, stop for a second.

What is it? Why are we stopping?

We already went over our formation.

Kiba, what is Sasuke's precise location right now?

Toward two o'clock when facing directly north.

One klick ahead.

Okay.

Sorry, everyo--!

Ut!

Just as I thought. You planned to put us all to sleep.

Sai, it's...

What?!

Bark Bark!

What do you mean?

Sakura was planning to go and take care of Sasuke by herself.

But why were you going to do it alone?

That is right!

We promised that we would handle this together, Sakura!

No one,

is going.

Huh? Huh?

[Sai] I'm not letting anyone proceed.

Why not, Sai??!

Why, you!

I've had my suspicions about you right from the start.

The four of us alone are no match against Sasuke or Tobi.

I told Kakashi Sensei I wouldnt let you go.

You did what now?!

And that's why you're doing this?

Listen.

I'll say this once.

Move aside, Sai!

Please hurry.

The situation's dire.

No, I won't let you go any farther.

[Sai] Ninja Art:

Super Beast Scroll!

Do you intend to bind us with those snakes?

I get where Kakashi Sensei's coming from,

but we can't let Sasuke roam free after all he's done, so I'll stop him, no matter what!

[whine]

Tch! Come on, Akamaru! Don't be a scaredy-cat!

Your dog's the smarter of you two. It seems he understands what I'm saying.

Shut up!

Quick! Let's go, Lee!

Sure thing! Yeah!

Augh!

I'll just use Tunneling Fang!

Thanks for the diversion, Kiba! And now for you!

Ah!

[Sai] Damn it!

[coughing]

[barking]

Sorry, everyone.

Kiba and Lee, too.

She got us. Please, you have to hurry.

Pretty gutsy, Sakura.

Sakura's Resolve

Sasuke.

When did I fall in love with you?

It seems so long ago, but back then, I was just infatuated with how cool you were.

Hey, guys, listen up! I have an announcement!

I'm in love!

And guess who it is!

This won't take long.

Here's a wild guess: it's Sasuke.

Huh? But how did you know that?

[Iruka] Squad Seven!

Sakura Haruno,

Naruto Uzumaki.

Uh?

YEEAAHHH!

And Sasuke Uchiha.

Cha! So cool!

[Sakura] And then, even better than I could have hoped, you became my teammate.

I'm Sakura Haruno.

What I like is, uh... I mean, the person I like is...

My hobby is...

And I guess that my dream for the future is...

[squeal]

[Sakura] Together we were Team 7.

Your assignment is very simple.

You just have to take these bells from me. Thats all there is to it.

Well, except for one little twist: if you can't get 'em by noon, then you go without lunch.

[stomach growl]

Here, take it.

Whaa?

What?! Sasuke, you cant! Sensei said!

Kakashis gone. We need to get those bells as a team.

If he's hungry, he'll be weak and ineffective.

That would hurt the entire team and jeopardize the mission.

Sasuke...

Mmh...

[chuckle]

Hwaahh!

Yoooou!!

Hmf.

You pass.

Huh?

Huhhh!?

What do you mean? How'd we pass?

A ninja must see through deception.

In the ninja world, those who break the rules are scum, thats true.

But, those who abandon their friends, are worse than scum.

[giggle]

[pleased] Hmm.

Being teammates didn't change my feelings.

I was still hopelessly in love with the cool Sasuke.

Just gazing at his handsome face was enough for me.

I never gave a moment's thought to who he really was behind that pensive face.

But...

[gasp]

Very soon now, Sasuke will want to seek me out.

He will desire my power.

Aagh!

You! What have you done to Sasuke?

I just gave him a little parting gift.

Augh! Agh!

Sasuke!

[pain grunts]

Sasuke, are you--?

What is it, whats he done to you?

Hang on, youre gonna be okay...

AAAUUUGHH!!!

He made me understand what I am. I am an avenger.

To follow my path, I must have power at any price, even if it means being consumed by evil.

Ah ha ha ha ha!

Looks like you're the only one left.

I just hope you make things more interesting than your friend did.

[sniffs]

Dont do it!

Stop.

Just stop!

Don't mention this mark. Understand?

I dont get what youre trying to prove!

Am I supposed to stand by and watch you tear yourself apart? I cant bear to watch it.

So dont, then! Stay out of it!

[gasp]

This has nothing to do with you.

Sasuke!

Oh, Sasuke.

[weeping]

You carried a shadow inside you.

And when I finally noticed, it was already too late.

Huh?

Yeah Im listenin.

I want you to fight me. Fight me now.

[gasp]

Actually, this is perfect.

I was just thinking about how I wanted to kick your butt.

Blast!

Stop it! No, you guys!

That Chidori. It was not the size youd aim at a comrade from the Leaf Village.

Were you really going to kill him, Sasuke?

Naruto knew. He knew about your shadow, your dark burden.

Listen, Sakura.

This is between us, stay out of it.

Before I knew it, Naruto had grown up, and was standing on the same level as you.

I was the one left behind. But even then, my feelings didn't change.

Im not the same as you. Im traveling a path the rest of you can't follow.

But Sasuke! I'm so in love with you that I can't even stand it!

If you would only be with me, I promise, I would never let you regret it!

Every day will be a joy!

I can give you the happiness you need!

I'll do anything for you, Sasuke.

Ill even help get your revenge! Ill do whatever it takes to make it happen, I swear!

So stay here with me.

And if you can't,

Then take me with you, Sasuke.

[weeping]

You havent changed.

You're still annoying.

[gasp]

Just bring him home. Please, bring Sasuke back to me.

Don't you worry one bit. I'm gonna bring Sasuke back.

I promise that on my life, Sakura!

I didn't even think about it. I put the entire burden on you, Naruto.

I went crying to you, clung to you, and expected you to make it all better.

While I did nothing.

That's why, this time,

Sorry, Naruto.

You may have to wait for me a little bit.

Next time I'm coming too!

I tried it my own way,

to catch up to the two of you.

But Sasuke,

is no longer the person we once thought he was.

He's far beyond our reach now.

It doesnt matter even if there isnt a promise between us anymore.

Because rescuing Sasuke is just something that I have to do.

Auugh! Enough! I'm going home!

Naruto. I'm so sorry!

But Im also grateful.

However, I've already decided. I'm going to take care of Sasuke myself!

That was a narrow escape.

For the shinobi world and the Leaf, I cannot let you two continue to live!

Ah!

It's a Reverse Tetragram Sealing Jutsu!

Sasuke! Get away from Danzo!

[Madara] It was a Collateral Damage Sealing Jutsu. It drags you into his corpse, sealing you inside.

He probably had it set to activate at the moment of his death.

That was close.

Now that's done. It's on to the Hidden Leaf.

The Hidden Leaf, huh?

I'm taking his eye.

Sasuke. Don't be so hasty.

Go back to the hideout and rest.

You overused your visual prowess. Eventually you wont be able to keep it up.

Your eyes are losing their light.

What can you do by yourself in the Hidden Leaf, anyway?

Remember, patience is necessary to reach one's goal.

Sasuke. I'm going to give you one piece of advice.

That woman.

[moan]

If you don't need her, make sure you finish her off.

She knows too much about us.

What do you mean, us? Since when do you assume that I've joined up with you?

[chuckle] Hmf! Well, never mind. We'll meet again.

[weak moans]

Hey, where is everyone?!

[growl]

[roar]

OH!

Lions Barrage!

[explosion]

An earth scroll, just like ours, huh?

My glasses!

Well, later, Karin.

I wish I couldve seen your face from those days, just one more time.

[bracing herself]

No! Sasuke!

[panting]

What a surprise.

He feels... totally different.

Is this really Sasuke?

What are you doing here, Sakura?

Who is she?

Look, Sasuke.

I'm here 'cause I've deserted the Hidden Leaf! I'm coming with you!

[Yamato] You finally awake, Naruto?

[Naruto] What happened? Where am I?

You lost consciousness. You really had us all worried.

[Naruto] Captain Yamato, where are Kakashi Sensei and Sai? Did they leave already?

[Yamato] Youre going to come back to the village with me. That's a direct order from Kakashi.

[Yamato] Next time on Naruto Shippuden: Lost Bonds.

Naruto. Let Kakashi handle Sakura.

[Sakura] What?! The champ got knocked out in the first round?

Damn it, how pathetic can you get!

He lacks fighting spirit!

To make a girl's heart stir, whisper in her ear...

Oh, I get it now!

Rrgh! Augh!

Hello, there.

When you punch, you've really got to put your back into it!

Hauugh!

[gasp]

Oh, Sai! Im so sorry, are you okay? That was just an accident!

Come on, Sai! Snap out of it!

Augh! The featured pinup is sealed inside!

I hate it when they do that!

Damn it, theres gotta be some way that I can see it. Sai! Wake up, already! I can't keep this up all day!

Byakugan!

Get up, Sai!

Yeah right, like I can use that.

[Naruto] I guess I have no choice.

[Sakura] Cmon, Sai! Wake up!

All right! Let's see that pinup!

Huh?!?

What the hell is this? Why is this a featured pinup? I want my money back!
