To Sakura's immense relief, the members of team 10 were relatively fine. It wasn't as if Sakura was a medical professional or had trained as an Iryō-nin yet, but she knew basic battlefield first aid from reviewing the original Sakura's carefully handwritten notes. Even so, despite her cursory check informing her that their vitals were stable, Sakura was fairly sure that they needed immediate medical attention. Who knew just how much invisible internal damage they had suffered…
Rifling through the unconscious bodies' pockets, Sakura quickly found Team Dosu's earth scroll and Team 10's heaven scroll, and she pocketed them. She then tapped experimentally on Dosu's gauntlet, but much to her disappointment, her action only produced a dull metallic thunk; it was broken.
When Zaku had fired his ultrasonic acoustic waves at his teammate, he had also hit the amplifying gauntlet on Dosu's forearm, with predictable results. The gauntlet had either increased the ultrasounds' amplitude beyond what the materials it was made of could resist, or perhaps the ultrasounds had happened to hit one of its delicate components' specific resonant frequencies, destroying the mechanism from the inside.
Either way, the gauntlet had produced an explosion of silent sound powerful enough to incapacitate everyone around! At any rate, the loss of the gauntlet was acceptable, at least when compared to the lives of Sakura's fellow Konoha 12.
'Just how embarrassing would it have been to lose the Ino-Shika-Cho on our watch?' said Inner Sakura with an amused tone. 'Even the original Sakura would have done better than us, just by doing nothing!'
Sakura pushed down Inner Sakura's nagging voice back down into her subconscious mind; she now had a decision to make concerning Team 10. The exam site was supposed to be filled with proctors and surveillance cameras, but the Forest of Death was still a huge place, making it easy to slip through the cracks. If she wanted to make sure that Team 10 received immediate help, there was only one solution…
Sakura retrieved a roll of bandages from her first-aid supply kit and tore off a length of cloth from it, wrapping it around her head like a blindfold; just in case the proctor summoned by the premature opening of the scroll attempted to make her fall in a Genjutsu before she could fully explain the situation. With her preparations complete, Sakura retrieved Team 10's heaven scroll and unfurled it facing away from her.
There was poof noise, and the odour of cigarettes began pervading the surrounding air. It smelled like Sakura had successfully summoned Team 10's chain-smoking Jōnin in charge…
"You just couldn't help yourselves, could you?" Sarutobi Asuma sighed, taking a long drag of his cigarette, before coughing out a cloud of smoke in surprise. "Wait, what's going on here?"
"Who's there?" Sakura called out tentatively. "There are some people here who need medical attention, so I opened their scroll…"
Sakura was suddenly overcome with the feeling that someone was staring at her chest, even though she couldn't see at the moment, due to her blindfold. Was this what they called women's intuition? Or perhaps, was the Sarutobi clan's libido so powerful that Sakura could literally feel Asuma's gaze burning a hole through her chest?
As expected of the man who had married the hottest woman among the youngest generation of Jōnin kunoichi…
"You can remove that thing, I understand the situation," came Asuma's weary voice. "But I'm curious, how did you know that the scrolls would summon someone?"
"There has to be a way to enforce the no-peeking-at-the-scroll's-contents rule without having anyone to look over our shoulders," Sakura explained, as she removed her blindfold. "In my opinion, opening the scroll would either summon a proctor to immediately disqualify your team, or cast a powerful Genjutsu that would knock you out for the remainder of the exam, thereby disqualifying you."
Asuma looked rather impressed at Sakura's reasoning; what she had said was quite obvious in hindsight, but to get that far required thinking, which was a skill that many regretfully lacked. Furthermore, she had taken the risk of failing her own exam in order to save comrades from the Leaf, which was very commendable, as per the official village propaganda: the Will of Fire.
Although, the only reason why Sakura knew for sure that the scrolls worked like this was because she knew the story…
"I see," Asuma said, chuckling. "That's why you put on the blindfold; most Genjutsu operate using sight."
His girlfriend Kurenai used such Genjutsu, so he was well aware of this fact.
"Also, the rules that Anko-sensei laid out clearly state that it's forbidden to look at the scrolls' contents," said Sakura mildly. "But nowhere is it mentioned that it's not allowed to open the scrolls and then not look at their contents."
If it was up to Asuma, he would have passed Sakura then and there.
In his opinion, she had demonstrated all of the qualities required to graduate from Genin to Chūnin. She had strength, judging from the unconscious bodies of the Sound-nin; she clearly cared for her fellow villagers, judging by her actions; and lastly, she knew how to minimize risks and look between the lines.
These were all qualities required for leadership, and Sakura had earned lots of brownie points with Asuma by saving his team, so he was definitely going to pass on the message to the higher-ups and recommend her for promotion!
And so, Asuma collected the unconscious bodies of Team 10 and Team Dosu, before reverse-summoning himself back to wherever he had come from, leaving Sakura alone with the unconscious Sasuke and Naruto.
Congratulations to the Host for achieving G-cup (96cm). Accept rewards?
"Hold up," Sakura interjected. "I was an F-cup before, and Kin Tsuchi had to at the very least wear a B-cup. How come I'm only one cup size bigger?"
Is the Host unaware of the Square-Cube Law?
"Er…" muttered Sakura, as she tried to remember what she had learned in school.
When any object, such as your breasts, increases in size, its new volume will be directly proportional to the cube of the size multiplier.
"I knew that," said Sakura quickly.
What the Host steals isn't brassieres, but mass, volume and chakra. As the Host ascends through official cup sizes, the Host will either have to absorb breast chakra from exponentially greater numbers of flat-chested women, or absorb breast chakra from large-breasted women in order to increase their official cup size.
For example, to advance from B to C, the Host had only required an additional 70 cubic centimetres of breast tissue. But to advance from M to N, barring any changes to the Host's weight or band size, the Host would need to absorb 250 cubic centimetres of breast tissue (the equivalent of the entirety of a B-cupper's breasts plus the breasts from one washboard chest).
As it is, the Host is just shy of achieving H-cup, which is why the Host feels so large compared to their cup size.
The System's rewards only appeared when Sakura graduated from one cup size to the next, but otherwise, she could just keep going on with her life as usual. She could still absorb superior nature affinities and chakra from regular female opponents, without going out of her way to go on Breast Hunts, but if she maintained her current growth rate, she'd be getting gifts from the System less often in the future.
And speaking of which…
Accept rewards?
