Chapter 38: Chapter 38 Both Tasks And Companions
Sasuke stared intently at the mysterious ninja standing in front of Kakashi, eager to uncover their identity. This person was not mentioned in the original book, and Sasuke was intrigued to learn more about them. However, the situation with Sakura's critical condition took precedence, as they needed immediate medical attention. Naruto, holding Sakura in his arms, called out to Sasuke, urging him to make a decision.
Realizing that time was of the essence, Sasuke contemplated their options. He suggested heading east, crossing the border into the Land of Waves and returning to the Land of Fire, where they could find a Konoha town with ninja stationed there who could provide medical treatment. Naruto glanced in that direction, but they were concerned about whether they would reach help in time.
Sasuke assessed his remaining chakra and noted that it had recovered about one-third. He regretted using a significant amount of chakra earlier, which hindered their ability to reach help quickly. However, Naruto, displaying determination, declared that he would take responsibility and ensure they reached their destination. Without hesitation, Naruto ran towards the east, leaving Sasuke behind.
Sasuke initially hesitated, as his priority was to stay and assist Kakashi in dealing with the enemy. However, the system intervened, giving Sasuke a task that emphasized the importance of ensuring Dazna's safety. Reluctantly accepting the task, Sasuke understood that saving Dazna was crucial to the mission's success and the preservation of the future plot.
Activating his Lightning Style, Sasuke used his speed to swiftly chase after the ninja who had taken Dazna. He activated his Sharingan to track their movements, which would have been impossible without its enhanced vision. Despite his chakra running low, Sasuke's recovery rate was impressive, allowing him to resume using his lightning speed. This cycle of using chakra, depleting it, and restoring it continued as Sasuke pursued the enemy.
Meanwhile, the ninja who had taken Dazna observed Sasuke's lightning technique with interest. They recognized that it was different from any known technique, suggesting that Sasuke had developed it himself. Intrigued by Sasuke's potential, the ninja contemplated whether Sasuke would be a suitable vessel for their own purposes.
Eventually, Sasuke reached a point where his chakra was nearly depleted. He stopped about a hundred meters away from the enemy's location and focused on restoring his chakra before engaging them. Through his Sharingan, Sasuke noticed changes in the footprints left by the enemy, indicating that they had slowed down in that area. Sasuke realized that the enemy must be nearby, prompting him to conserve his energy for the imminent confrontation.
The enemy sensed Sasuke's presence and halted their movement, aware that he was recovering his chakra. They commended Sasuke's vigilance, acknowledging that he posed a significant threat. However, their own intentions remained unclear as they awaited Sasuke's approach.
