thinking he's powerless. Sakura begins to cry and states they couldn't
bring him back. She then says though, that they're still together and
they'll get stronger together as well. Sai states they have six months.
He himself is strong and three is better than two. Naruto chuckles and
he and Sakura begin to perk up. Yamato tells them to move out. A
short while later the team stands before Tsunade. Naruto promises
they're not giving up, and she states that's fine, she already has a
mission for them. Later Sai kneels before Danzou. The old man is
surprised by Sai's mission failure. Sai asks a favor, to keep his name
and to stay with Team Kakashi for the time being. Danzou says Sai will
need to ask Tsunade; he then notices Sai's smile. He then warns Sai
that emotions can lead to war. Sai thinks of Sasuke's words of hatred
for his brother, but he then thinks of how Naruto stated he connected
with Sasuke. In Sai's apartment he holds a scroll marked "Comrade"
and he remembers Naruto others words, demanding to know if Sai
even knew what that word meant. Sai smiles and begins to paint a
picture; he then thinks of his brother. Outside Naruto yells for Sai to
hurry. Sai puts down the brush and we move to the window seal. With
the window frame to the outside world appearing like a painting, Sai
joins the group while "Comrade" sits below it, marking his new
beginning among friends.

while he prays. Kakuzu is annoyed but Hidan explains he has to. The
kunoichi states she is the one in control and destroys all the entrances.

to change into her Jinchuuriki form. Chakra swirls and quickly
resembles a huge feral feline. Hidan offers his surprise and the beast
swipes. Kakuzu reaches up to stop the blow. It then emits a fiery ball
out of its mouth and Hidan jumps away. Soon the building itself
collapses and Hidan jokes of not being able to stand the heat. He takes
refuge in the rubble and states he's trapped like a rat to the two tailed
demon feline known as a living ghost. In Konoha, Kakashi asks what
Asuma wanted but Kurenai enters and Asuma takes his leave. He
states he'll tell Kakashi later. Back at the fight Hidan rests impaled on
the ground on his religious symbol. He turns from black to his normal
tone and Kakuzu offers his annoyance at this constant sacrifice. Hidan
states he has to and it's blasphemy to skip. He pulls the spike out and
we see blood-drenched Yugito high on a wall, with a spike impaling
both her hands. Kakuzu pulls out a map with multiple countries marks
