Everyone was shocked at the sudden appearance of Sasuke.
"SASUKE-KUN!!" Sakura yelled as she was the first one to notice.
'Is that Sasuke? He sure has grown up,' Kakashi thought as he saw Sakura run up to him. It was the first time that he had seen Sasuke since he left the village so it was kinda expected for him to be surprised at Sasuke's growth.
"So Lady Tsunade was right," Shizune said as she looked at Tsunade, who was silently observing him.
"Sasuke?" Naruto muttered as he slowly rotated his head 180 degrees to see Sasuke right behind him. He was the last person to understand what was going on.
"SASUKE!!!" Sakura yelled as she jumped at Sasuke who grabbed her with his left arm.
"SASUKE!!!" Naruto shouted as he hugged Sasuke too.
'It's weird to hug a guy like that, but I can't let them know that I'm not the Sasuke they once knew,' Sasuke thought as he kept hugging his former team 7 members even though his shirt got wet from their tears.
Meanwhile, Kakashi was extremely happy to see that his Team 7 has finally been reunited.
On the other hand, Tsunade and Shizune waited for them to finish before asking Sasuke some questions since Tsunade still had some doubts about him.
"Stop overreacting, you two," Sasuke said in his classic annoying tone as he tried to separate them from him, especially Naruto since his little peanut was touching his thigh.
With some struggle, he pushed Naruto away but Sakura refused to let go. He simply decided to let her keep hugging him.
"Sasuke, I knew you would come back" Naruto said as he wiped off his tears.
"Welcome home, Sasuke-kun" Sakura said with a teary face as she raised her head.
Her smile melted Sasuke's heart to the point where he decided to take her as his woman at all costs.
Yes he had made fun of her online previously for being useless but now he has seen how much she loves him. He will make her the most powerful Kunoichi.
Someone who can stand beside him and support him at all times, even if it means betraying everyone else.
Sasuke grabbed her face and kissed her gently on the lips in front of everyone.
They all were dumbfounded after seeing the shameless act of Sasuke, but he didn't give a shit.
*Cough*Cough*
Tsunade coughed with a slight blush as Sasuke parted his mouth with Sakura who was on cloud nine.
Sakura's face turned red like a tomato. She was stunned since she never expected her dream to come true randomly.
She had always wanted Sasuke's attention and love since their childhood days. She loved him so much that she was willing to leave the village for Sasuke so could be with him.
Sasuke understood Sakura's emotions and wanted to give some love back. He felt that Sakura might be the only one who could actually handle his beast with her superior body and healing.
"That's enough, Sakura" Tsunade scolded Sakura who was still looking at Sasuke lovingly. She decided to part ways for a little moment since she didn't want her teacher to get angry. However, she still stayed near Sasuke so he wouldn't run away again.
Either way, Tsunade's behavior pissed off Sasuke to the point where he decided to punish her. He was the only one who could scold his woman.
'She will pay for interrupting my time with my simp' Sasuke said as he got ready for the interrogation.
"So why are you back in Konoha?" Tsunade asked as she looked at him with a glare.
"What type of question is that Granny Tsunade?" Naruto yelled and complained but was stopped by Kakashi.
"Naruto, it's necessary," Kakashi said as he put a hand on Naruto's shoulder. He knows how things work in the world.
Sasuke was a rogue ninja who should be punished according to the law for betraying their village.
The fact that Tsunade has not called for the Anbu to arrest him is already a big favor for Naruto.
"That's fine but I won't let anyone hurt Sasuke" Naruto yelled to which Kakashi nodded.
After that, everyone turned their eyes towards Sasuke to hear his answer.
"I came here to warn you of the upcoming enemy attack" He said as the whole room became silent.
"Is it another Hidden Village or someone else?" Tsunade asked anxiously.
"You know who it is" Sasuke said as Tsunade sweated a little.
"Wait, who is going to attack Konoha?" Naruto asked a dumb question which shocked no one.
"The Akatsuki Leader, Pain. He will be coming for The Nine Tails" Sasuke said as the whole room became silent yet again.
'JIRAYA!!!' Tsunade wondered what happened to him but decided not to ask him yet.
"How do you know that information?" Tsunade asked as she tried to be calm.
"I have my informants in The Hidden Rain Village" Sasuke said as he could hear Naruto gritting his teeth.
"What else do you know?" Tsunade asked as her Anbu guards gave her some information.
"According to my sources, Pain will attack Konoha tomorrow" Sasuke said as everyone looked at him with a dumbfounded face.
"What?" Shizune yelled
"Are you sure that they are going to attack tomorrow Sasuke?" Kakashi asked suddenly.
"They may attack today" Tsunade said as everyone looked at her.
After that, Tsunade revealed the shocking information to them.
"Danzo and the Root have been disposed of. There are signs of a big battle in their headquarters" Tsunade announced.
That information stunned both Kakashi and Shizune since they knew about the Root's existence, unlike Naruto and Sakura.
"What is Root?" Both Naruto and Sakura asked.
After that, Kakashi explained about Danzo and Root so they could understand the urgency of the matter.
"How can a whole ninja force die overnight?" Naruto asked despite knowing about the Uchiha Clan massacre.
"It's because Danzo was working with the Akatsuki leader who must have killed him after using him" Sasuke said which attracted everyone's attention.
