After being hit by Sakura's punch, although Naruto was not seriously injured, he was unconscious.
Sakura is no longer what she used to be, and the force behind that punch is no longer a joke.
Because of Naruto's stupid action, the spar ended here.
The final result is naturally no one is the winner.
Sakura didn't want to fight against Sasuke, and Sasuke didn't have much interest in winning against Sakura.
So...
Their battles ended with an anticlimactic end.
However, Kakashi did not care, after all, it was just a whim.
It is a small punishment for these three's behaviors last night and this morning.
But, it seemed that only Naruto had suffered.
"It seems that it is over."
Kakashi sighed and then closed the Icha-Icha Paradise.
On the barren desert, the two were walking slowly.
Both of them wore black robes with red clouds pattern, and they also wore straw hats on their heads, which make them looked mysterious.
"Sasori-dana, the Sunagakure we are going this time is your village, right?" Deidara asked curiously.
"Yeah."
Sasori replied softly. There are no emotions in his voice and it is unknown what he is thinking.
"You must be in a complicated mood because you revisit your old village, right dana?"
Sasori was silent and didn't answer.
"Ah, Sasori-dana really doesn't like to talk. But let's talk about it first, I will take care of our target alone. I want to see how strong the Ichibi's Jinchūriki is."
Deidara said excitedly.
Although he has spent some time in Akatsuki and performed a lot of missions, there are not many opponents who can make Deidara feel excited.
Thinking about the time of being defeated easily by Itachi when he first entered Akatsuki, Deidara is still a little unconvinced.
Deidara knows that he can't win against those eyes.
He then touched his left eye. It was something he had prepared for dealing with Sharingan for many years.
'Sooner or later, one day, I will find Itachi to settle the account.'
"You can do whatever you want, just don't make me wait for a long time. I don't have much patience."
"Hahaha, don't worry Sasori-dana, our target is just a little brat. Even if he is a Kazekage, he's not my opponent. I will show him my art!"
Deidara laughed triumphantly, as if he had completed the mission.
"Idiot, don't underestimate the target. You will die if you're not careful."
"Hahaha, how is it possible, Sunagakure has no powerful Shinobi at all, and that Jinchūriki is probably my only opponent."
"Really? Are your explosive clays ready? The opponent is the Ichibi."
"Don't worry, even if I am arrogant, I will use my full power when fighting against a Jinchūriki."
"That's good, just don't make me wipe your ass."
"Hahaha, don't worry Sasori-dana. By the way, we are going to directly enter Sunagakure this time, right? Did Sasori-dana have a way to get inside without being caught?"
"Don't worry, even if I have already left Sunagakure, I have my spies there, so it's not a problem to enter Sunagakure."
"That's good! This time I will definitely show Sunagakure my art! Hahaha."
In the barren desert, the two figures gradually moved away.
The goal of their trip is Sunagakure, one of the Five Great Shinobi Villages in this world.
If others know that the purpose of their trip this time is to fight against the entire Sunagakure with just the power of two people, it will probably make people think that they are two madmen.
But if others know about their strength, they won't be able to think so.
Because these two people are S-rank missing-nin from their respective villages.
Sunagakure's crisis is approaching.
On the other side, Konoha Village, Kakashi's house.
"Yo, Kakashi!"
"Hmm? Jiraiya-sama?"
Kakashi, who was looking at the gift Naruto had given him, was a little surprised to see Jiraiya who suddenly appeared by the window.
"Kakashi, how about it, this book is my greatest masterpiece, it's pretty good, right?" Jiraiya said with a smile.
Yes, the book on Kakashi's hand this time is Jiraiya's latest masterpiece, the sequel to Icha-Icha Innocence, Icha-Icha Tactics.
"Yeah, I can only say that it is as expected of Jiraiya-sama."
"Haha, good. Now, let's talk about some serious thing."
Jiraiya jumped in from the window and landed in Kakashi's room.
"Your's room is still as boring as before." Jiraiya complainly said.
Kakashi's room is indeed very simple, not much different from Sakumo's room.
Except for the necessary things, there is no decoration.
Kakashi doesn't care too much as he doesn't like fancy things.
"Kakashi, I got some information. It seems that the people in that organization have started to act."
Jiraiya said as his expression suddenly turned serious.
Kakashi nodded and said: "Yeah I know. I heard that their preparations have been completed, and now they have entered the second step of their plan, they are ready to capture the Bijū."
"Well, I have already notified all the higher-ups of the other villages. As for whether they will pay attention to it or not, is hard to say."
"Sunagakure and Kirigakure should take it seriously, as for Kumogakure and Iwagakure, they may not care about that. Especially Sandaime Tsuchikage as he has worked with Akatsuki before."
"This is a troublesome problem. But right now, we can only do this. I really wonder what these guys are going to do by catching the Bijū. The one inside Naruto should also be targeted."
"We don't have to worry about Naruto for now."
"Huh? Why?" Jiraiya asked curiously.
"Akatsuki's purpose for catching the Bijū is to seal it in a certain container, and this container cannot carry the huge power of the Kyūbi at the beginning. So, the Bijū must be captured from the smallest number of tails first. If the order is wrong, it is very likely to cause failure. Therefore, Kyūbi must be their final target."
"So it's like that. I didn't find out about this information. Kakashi, I am becoming more and more curious about where are your sources of information. After all, I know that Konoha's intelligence system don't have such a powerful intelligence gathering capability."
Jiraiya looked at Kakashi suspiciously.
Kakashi looked back at Jiraiya and smiled: "Jiraiya-sama, I have made a lot of preparations for that organization. Not only in the village, but also outside the village."
Jiraiya slightly frowned upon hearing this.
"Jiraiya-sama, you can rest assured that this power will eventually be integrated into Konoha."
"Kakashi, for this power to be able to investigate this kind of intelligence, I am afraid it will not be small. If it was integrated into Konoha, I'm afraid it would cause an impact on the current situation. And now, Konoha has just finally entered a relatively stable situation..."
"Jiraiya-sama, I understand about that, that's why I have not called them into Konoha. This is the main reason."
Jiraiya didn't say anything anymore after hearing this.
He believes that Kakashi knew more about these things than he did.
After all, Jiraiya is not good at politics.
As for the young man in front of him, Jiraiya has full trust in him.
