Fresh from his training with Jiraiya, Naruto reunites with Sakura and Kakashi to form a new Team 7, just as the Akatsuki make their move. Their target: Gaara, now Kazekage of the Sand Village. Deidara and Sasori abduct Gaara to extract the One-Tail Shukaku, forcing Konoha and Sunagakure to join forces in a desperate rescue mission. As Naruto struggles with the fear of losing a fellow jinchūriki, Sakura and Chiyo confront Sasori in a battle that pushes their skills to the edge. The arc balances explosive battles with emotional weight, ending with a hard-won rescue and Gaara’s return as a symbol of hope for both villages.
