(Alongside Ino)
Ino had walked approximately 200 metres away from the rest of her team when she found a small boulder that she used as a chair. After doing so, she removed her ninja shoes and rubbed them. After the long day of searching for Naruto, she had put a lot of mileage on her feet, and they were beginning to hurt badly.
Ino was massaging her feet when she heard someone fall and let out a groan.
"STUPID BUSH!" Someone moaned in obvious discomfort.
Ino started walking in the direction of the source of the sound. She came across a young girl who had green eyes, pink short hair, a red dress, bicycle shorts, and blue shoes. Her eyes were jade green. She was able to identify Sakura despite the disguise.
"BILL BORAD BROW!" Ino yelled out in astonishment.
Sakura looked up to see Ino. She was traumatised by the experience of having seen her.
"INO!" Sakura Shouted in surprise
The moment Sakura tripped over a bush, she immediately got to her feet and rubbed the front of her dress to remove the dirt that had gotten on it.
Sakura was concerned because she knew that she wasn't supposed to leave the village, that she had been kicked off the mission to look for Naruto, and that she wasn't even supposed to be here. Because Sakura had disobeyed Ino's orders, Ino had the right—if not the obligation—to report Sakura to Tsunadae. She was aware that Ino was upset with her, just as everyone else was.
The look on Ino's face changed to one of rage, and she asked, "What are you doing, billboard brow, here in this place? You really ought to be in the village right about now, don't you think?" Ino Asked, exhibiting a tinge of annoyance in her tone of voice
Sakura put on a phoney smile for Ino and saddenedly responded, "It's the same Ino. I am aware that I ought to be in the village at this time, but I came here in order to locate Naruto-Kun."
Ino's expression changed slightly to one of perplexity, and she thought to herself, "Naruto-Kun?" and "What do you mean, Naruto-Kun?" When Ino asked Sakura about it, she responded with a voice that suggested she was confused "You can't deny it, Ino, can you? During the time that I was at my house, I had a brief conversation with my mother. As you are aware, I have been gradually losing my feelings for Sasuke, and I shared this development with my mother. During the course of our conversation, I came to the realisation that..., I have feelings for Naruto-Kun. My feelings for him have been repressed for a considerable amount of time due to my crush on Sasuke. I merely wish to put things in their proper order, that is all."
"
*sigh*" The Sigil of Ino, "To tell you the truth, Sakura, I don't really believe you. It was because of you that he decided to leave the village in the first place. So you're telling me that you have feelings for him now, right?" Ino recapped the event with an unhappy tone in her voice, expressing her dissatisfaction with the fact.
She is absolutely correct; Sakura was the impetus behind Naruto's decision to leave the village in the first place. However, she came here in order to search for Naruto so that she could apologise to him when she found him. It was necessary for her to persuade Ino not to tell anyone else.
Sakura's face contorted into one of melancholy, and as she gazed at the ground below her and moaned, "I know, Ino...., I know that what I did was wrong," she finally admitted her guilt.
"BUT PLEASE DON'T TELL ANYONE! IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT I LOCATE NARUTO-KUN! PLEASE!" Sakura begged, noticing that a few tears were beginning to form in her eyes.
Ino was unable to lend a hand. It, Sakura had been her friend all along in the end. In addition to that, whenever she thought about the way that she had treated Naruto in the past, she couldn't help but feel guilty. Therefore, in this regard, it's possible that she and Sakura are in the same boat.
"*Sigh*" Once more, Ino sighed, then she smiled at Sakura and nodded in agreement "So, give me your best billboard brow. I will assist you in locating Naruto ", "I also feel your guilt because I've treated him exactly the same way that you have," you said. Ino inquired once more, "So...., You'll aid me?" As she wiped the tears from her eyes, Sakura asked, "Sure, Sakura, isn't that what friends are for?" "Sure, Sakura, that's exactly what friends are for." Ino smiled as she gave her response.
Sakura broke into a grin, and then she made her way over to Ino and gave her a warm embrace (With Shizune, Tsunadae and Jiraya)
The three of them were getting together to plan out how they would find Naruto.
"So, what do you think our chances are of locating that brat?" Tsunadae inquired while maintaining a solemn expression on her face.
"Jiraya-Sama, are you unable to request assistance from the toads?" Shizune questioned with a curious expression on her face.
"I'm sorry to say it's not Shizune. Because Naruto signed a contract with the toads, they are obligated to remain loyal to him even though they are only servants. They assist with human affairs whenever it is necessary. Since they are unable to assist us, we are on our own at this point." Jiraya Explained "Great. Simply outstanding. Now the question is, how do we locate the Brat?" Tsunadae Asked, with an annoyed tone of voice
"Tsunadae-sama, what do you think about the Slugs?" Shizune Asked
"Can't, the slugs don't want to interfere with one of the contacts of the toads. They have a difficult relationship that they will not attack or the toads and the slugs will be enemies again," said the slugs. Tsunadae Explained It, Sounding Slightly Irritated About It
"I take it that we are on our own at this point, right?" A guess from Jiraya was "That's absolutely right, we are on our own now." Tsunadae replied
After a short while, a silhouette of a hawk appeared, and when the three individuals looked up, they saw that it was a messenger hawk.
The hawk was brown and had a yellow beak. It had a small compartment on its left leg that held the message, and it had a small compartment on its other leg that contained blank sheets of paper and a pen so that it could reply to the message.
Tsunadae raised her right arm, whereupon the hawk landed, and she proceeded to grab the message and read it.
Dear Tsunadae Senju.
The Council knew that the Leaf was leaving, and they wondered why they should spoil one of the greatest moments in the Leaf's history.
You and the Shinobi are under orders from the Council to halt all searches for the Demon and to classify him as a wanted dead missing nin of the SSS class. His bounty should be between 10,000,000 and 30,000,00 Ryo.
Signed by Danzo, an experienced member of the Civilian council.
