Time rewound to an hour ago.
Sakura, in the midst of training, felt she was being watched, so secretly created a Shadow Clone and followed the watcher, discovering it was Uchiha Itachi, and his target was Kakashi.
This aroused a bit of curiosity in Sakura.
Uchiha Itachi, a prodigious young man, why would he be spying on a middle-aged uncle ninja?
So, she followed—
Then, in this Forest of Death, she found ninjas sneaking in from outside the village.
One with a mask.
One looking like a Venus flytrap.
Neither seemed like any upstanding person, or rather, not completely human.
According to Sakura's senses, these two were, instead of humans, more like plant-like beings with properties similar to plants.
Sakura speculated that these two probably didn't need to eat and could replenish energy directly through photosynthesis.
Thus, she disguised herself as Kakashi to probe the true intentions of these two individuals.
"You're not from Konoha, are you?"
