Since that incident, Sakura has always avoided Sasuke because she does not want his existence to interfere. Although Sasuke did not care at all and was more focused on his training.
‘’Sakura-chan, did you fight with Sasuke-kun?’’ ask Hinata.
‘’Last-lately you always leave when Sasuke comes,’’ Tenten said.
‘’Hm, I'm so not excited to take Sasuke-kun if you're like this,’’ Ino said.
Sakura smiled softly. ‘’Me and Sasuke-kun did not fight. I just felt useless for hindering the mission of that time. You came to save me. So I apologize to the two of them who were struggling to fight, but Sasuke-kun instead said to me.’’
‘’Uzai? Sasuke-kun said that to you? Well, he was very cold in the past, but there was no need to say such a thing to my cousin. Tenten, you better scold your cold cousin!’’ ino.
Tenten smiled stiffly. ‘’Sasuke it is. Even though I reprimanded her, she must have ignored me.’’

Yahiko, Konan and Nagato turned their heads after receiving the message.
‘’This is an emergency message from Hanzo-sama. We have to get to this location right now,’’ Yahiko said.
‘’But, he's not back yet. We better wait a minute, just came there,’’ said Konan.
‘’Cannot. The three of you should come right now,’’ said one of the envoys ninja.
‘’Then write a letter and leave it here. He will read it after returning and following heading to the location,’’ Nagato said.
Yahiko nodded and wrote a short letter while attaching the location he had received earlier. Without wasting any time, they rushed away.
However, without the three people noticing, a ninja figure hiding in the wall appeared, and instantly burned the letter.
......................
The yellow-haired figure who had just returned, stared around. His forehead shriveled as he did not see the three people.
‘’Are they out?’’
Not long ago he landed, a wooden strike from behind instantly locked him up. ‘’You?’’
‘’Yo, ohisashiburi Uzumaki Naruto.’’
‘’Captain Yamato, as I recall you are no longer on a mission to kill me.’’
Yamato smiled behind his mask. ‘’It was true.’’
‘’Then why are you here and tie me up?’’
‘’I won't kill you. But, I will prevent you with all my might from leaving here,’’ Yamato said.
Hearing Yamato's words made the yellow-haired child frown.
The deg!
Wait for. The three people disappeared, and Captain Yamato was here. Prevent me from leaving? Uh, he said inwardly.
It was then that he came to his senses after recalling Nagato's story in which Hanzo framed them to kill Yahiko.
‘’I have promised to stop suffering in this time, therefore do not bother me dattebayo!’’
Yamato gasped at the change of the child who instantly pulled out five tails. Before reaching the ninth tail, Yamato performed a hand seal.
‘’Hokage-Shiki Jijun Jutsu Kakuan Nitten Suishu!’’
The statues surrounding the yellow-haired child would be a binder that could absorb chakra. This is done to stop the Kyuubi's bijuu chakra.
Bugh!
All the statues were destroyed in an instant. Yamato rounded his eyes while raising his head. His body trembled violently looking at the nine-tailed, intact monster standing before him.
The difference was that the entire body of Kyuubi that he saw was covered in a yellow sparkle like gold.
Yamato was silent in his place. It looks like it's gonna be over soon.
