Naruto: The Abstract Strategist of the Akatsuki

Chapter 385 Resurrection in Progress

Sasuke should be thankful that Sakura and Ino learned the Lightning Blade, not Tsunade's classic Painful Kick.

Fortunately, he fell face down.

Fortunately, he is still a teenager who has just begun to develop, which is... well, those who know, know.

If any one of the three conditions were missing, Sasuke would have already lost everything.

It's alright now; Sasuke only got stepped on in the thigh area.

"Sa-Sasuke? What's wrong?"

Sakura was startled.

She didn't expect that Sasuke was "seriously injured and collapsed".

A myriad of thoughts raced through my mind at once.

What exactly happened here?

Did Sasuke fight Naruto here after he was knocked away by Killer Bee?

What about Naruto?

Without thinking about anything else, Sakura squatted down, preparing to use medical ninjutsu to heal Sasuke's injuries.

Once he's healed, Sasuke can say it himself.

"what?"

Sakura was a little confused when she placed her hand on it after activating Healing Palm.

No injuries were found on Sasuke's entire body...

Oh no, there is still some, in the spot where she stepped on it just now.

Apart from this, there were no other injuries.

This is simply a lack of chakra and fatigue.

Sakura can't be treated with simple medical ninjutsu.

Sakura took a soldier's ration pill from her pouch and put it into Sasuke's mouth.

"Hey, Sakura, wait a minute!"

Ino saw this and was about to stop her when Sakura had already stuffed the soldier's ration into her mouth.

"What's wrong?"

Sakura looked at Ino with a puzzled expression.

Is there something wrong with this?

She believed that she and Ino were on par in both medical ninjutsu and taijutsu. Could it be that Ino received special training and knew something that she didn't?

"...How long have you kept these soldier ration pills?"

Ino looked at Sasuke, who had already swallowed the soldier's pill, sighed, and asked Sakura.

"Huh? Uh..."

Sakura finally realized the problem and looked extremely embarrassed.

—Ever since Kakashi mentioned that eating soldier pills during puberty could affect development, Sakura has never bought or made soldier pills again.

So here's the question: where did these soldier's ration pills come from?

It was obvious that Sakura had forgotten about it in her ninja tool bag a long time ago.

Do military ration pills also have an expiration date?

Sakura asked in a low voice.

What do you think?

Ino rolled her eyes.

"Sakura, Ino, please... look at this~"

Hinata pointed in Sasuke's direction with a look of panic.

"What's wrong, Hinata? Sasuke...?"

The two looked in the direction Hinata was pointing and found that Sasuke was convulsing.

"Oh no, Sasuke's about to poop! Quick, call Akamaru over and feed him."

Ino was startled and quickly took a few steps back to create some distance.

They were afraid that Sasuke would turn into a jetpack fighter.

Sakura did the same thing, even more so than Ino, taking a few steps back and shielding Ino in front of her, acting as a shield.

Ino was furious when she saw this.

What a terrible best friend! She has no loyalty whatsoever!

Fortunately, Ino also had a target, and she protected Hinata in front of her as well.

The three of them were arranged in the order of medium, large, and extra-large, like an eagle catching chicks, with Hinata, the largest one, acting as the first layer of shield.

"Hinata, you're from the Hyuga clan, you should be able to save the day, right? It's up to you!"

Ino lowered her head and hid behind Hinata.

"what?"

Hinata was completely bewildered.

She didn't realize for a moment why Sakura and Ino were hiding behind her.

Besides, Ino is right behind her now, how can she use the Reincarnation skill? Wouldn't using it just send Ino flying?

After a while, Hinata finally realized that Sakura and Ino had misunderstood, and she was both amused and exasperated: "You've got it wrong. There's something strange moving under Sasuke-kun, so..."

"What?"

"You should have said so earlier."

Upon hearing this, Ino and Sakura immediately released their grip.

They definitely believe Hinata's words.

Hinata's personality dictates that she won't lie, and since she always has her Byakugan active, giving her the ability to see through things, she can naturally see things that others can't.

"Could it be some kind of disgusting bug?"

Ino went over and took a look, and found that Sasuke really hadn't woken up, nor was he twitching on his own; his body was being moved by something below him.

"The bugs aren't disgusting at all."

Upon hearing this, Shino was heartbroken.

"Let's be careful..."

Sakura tiptoed forward, intending to push Sasuke aside and see what was under him.

"Woof woof."

Akamaru barked twice from the side, his dog eyes full of disappointment.

What happened to dinner?

Sniff.

To be honest, even though there was no staple food to eat, Akamaru smelled a familiar aroma.

Following the scent, Akamaru arrived beside Sasuke.

Sakura, unaware of Akamaru's approach, pushed Sasuke aside from the ground.

In that instant, the thing that Sasuke was pressing down flew into the sky.

"Woof woof!"

While everyone stood there in astonishment, only Akamaru, like a vicious dog, pounced and swatted down the flying object, pinning it under his paws and then licking it.

"Woof woof!"

Akamaru's eyes lit up; this was the taste of milk.

Akamaru's dog tongue began to frantically lick the milk.

"Uh, can anyone tell us what this is?"

"Shino, you're so knowledgeable, can you tell me?"

Everyone present, except for Akamaru who was enjoying his milk, remained silent.

That thing, it seems, perhaps, is a... drum?

There was a flower stuck in it.

It's not unusual to have a leather drum, nor is it unusual to have a flower on it.

The strange thing is, why is this drum constantly moving?

If it simply appears, it could be explained that someone was blown to pieces by the explosive tag, and part of it fell here.

But why does it move?

"Could it be the body of someone who is immortal? Like that bloodthirsty pervert in the Akatsuki?"

Sakura suddenly thought of someone.

That perverted ninja who once used his blood to intimidate all the female ninjas in the ninja world.

"Regardless, let's contact the sealing team first."

After discussing it, the group made a decision.

After resting for a while, Sai arrived with the sealing team of three.

"Let me seal a leather drum?"

Even Sai, who was used to his signature fake smile, couldn't quite keep it up when he saw his mission objective.

"Alright, leave it to me."

"Excuse me, you three ugly ladies, could you please move aside?"

"And that guy with menstrual blood smeared on his face, take your wife and squat over there."

Sai said with a smile.

"Who's going to get menstrual blood?... You bastard—wait, what wife? You bastard... damn it!"

Kiba Inuzuka's face kept changing, like a Sichuan opera face-changing master.

At first, I wondered who Sai was talking about with menstrual blood on their face, and then I realized that he was the only one with something on his face.

Then, when Sai said "wife," he suddenly felt a bit shy, even though he didn't know which of the three girls Sai was referring to...

Then Kiba realized that Sai was referring to Akamaru.

I couldn't hold back any longer.

Just as Ya was about to explode, he suddenly discovered a terrifying spot.

If Sai said that, shouldn't there be three other people, or two other people, who would have been enraged before him?

Why is it so eerily quiet?
