After the Third Hokage restored the seals around the Sealing Book, the two of them left. On the way, Sakura pulled out two photos and handed them over to the Third Hokage.

"Grandpa Third Hokage, this is for you. If Hidden Cloud Village ever wants to cause trouble again, show this to the Fourth Raikage!"

"What is this?" The Third Hokage took the photos with confusion, but after just one glance, he felt like he was going blind.

"This is the Fourth Raikage? Who is the other person?"

"The Fourth Raikage and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Killer Bee. They used Transformation Jutsu!" Sakura explained. "Unless the Fourth Raikage wants everyone in the ninja world to know how flamboyant his appearance is, he won't dare to attack Konoha again!"

"Very good!" The Third Hokage chuckled and kept the photos. If the Fourth Raikage ever causes trouble again, he'll show him these photos. It'll be quite amusing.

The next morning, Sakura woke up Kakashi, Guy, and Shisui, who were all suffering from kidney deficiency, and they all headed to the gathering place together.

When they arrived at the designated location, Ino and her friends were already there, packing up their things.

"Sakura, who are these people?" Ino asked, looking at the three people behind Sakura.

"This is Kakashi Hatake, a Jonin from Konoha. He was a genius in Konoha and graduated from the Ninja Academy at the age of five. He became a Chunin at six and a Jonin at twelve. But now that he's grown up, he's become a delinquent who never lets go of his little yellow book!"

Kakashi was happy with the introduction at first, but what was that last sentence? What did she mean by "a delinquent who never lets go of his little yellow book"?

Ignoring Kakashi's resentful gaze, Sakura pointed to Guy.

"Might Guy, the master of Taijutsu in Konoha. He's very strong, especially in Taijutsu. Even in his Eight Gates state, he can fight against the Hokage!"

At this point, Guy had already reached his limit with the Seventh Gate, and he couldn't maintain it for long. If he went all out, he could only fight the Third Hokage to a draw. If he could maintain the Seventh Gate for a longer period of time, he could defeat the Third Hokage.

"Finally, this is Uchiha Shisui!" Sakura pulled out Shisui, who was smiling. "He's a genius elite from the Uchiha clan and a Jonin from Konoha. He's known as the 'Shunshin Shisui' in the ninja world for his mastery of Genjutsu and Body Flicker Technique!"

"Hey? Uchiha? Sasuke's clan?" Naruto jumped out and stared at Shisui for a while before asking in confusion, "Why don't I feel like he's anything like that arrogant guy Sasuke?"

"Shisui and Sasuke are only from the same clan, not direct relatives. It's strange to expect them to be alike!" Sakura replied to Naruto before looking around and asking, "Has Sasuke not arrived yet?"

"I'm here!" As soon as Sakura finished speaking, Sasuke's displeased voice sounded from behind.

Sakura turned around and saw Sasuke holding Itachi's right hand with a hostile look in his eyes, staring at the girl with long hair on Itachi's left.

"Excuse me, I'm Uchiha Izumi, Itachi's friend..."

Uchiha Izumi smiled gently, but Sasuke's resentment grew stronger. It seemed that his older brother's heart had been stolen by someone else, as he now called Itachi by an intimate name.

Sakura and Ino exchanged a glance, and everyone immediately agreed to bow to Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Izumi.

"Hello, Itachi and Mrs. Izumi..."

"What?!" Uchiha Izumi's face turned red. She did have feelings for Itachi, but it was just a one-sided love. The title of "Mrs." was a bit too much. "I'm not Itachi's girlfriend. We're just friends!"

"Isn't a romantic relationship usually developed from a friendship?" Sakura said. "If you like someone, you should pursue them boldly and confess your feelings. Don't miss the opportunity to confess just because you're shy!"

"I...no, I..." Uchiha Izumi blushed like a tomato. Pursuing someone and confessing was too embarrassing for her.

"If Mrs. Izumi doesn't mind, I can help you by giving him a love potion. He'll be burning with desire, and you can just push him away. With his personality, he definitely won't do anything indecent!"

Sakura rubbed her chin, her eyes shining. In the original story, Uchiha Itachi remained single until his death. Uchiha Izumi, who was most likely to become his girlfriend, died under Itachi's Tsukuyomi in the novel, and died at the hands of Obito Uchiha in the anime. To prevent Itachi from being single forever, Sakura decided to help them get together.

"No...I don't need it!" Uchiha Izumi refused Sakura's proposal, even though she was tempted.

"Compared to me, you seem more like a delinquent girl. You can think of such dirty tricks!"

Kakashi still remembered Sakura's evaluation of him and couldn't help but make a sarcastic comment.

"You don't understand. I'm helping Itachi get out of being single. It's not easy to find someone who likes you wholeheartedly these days!" Sakura sneered at Kakashi. "Besides, my method may be a bit unsavory, but maybe Itachi actually likes being treated this way. Men often say one thing and mean another. They pretend not to care even when they're burning with desire. And Kakashi, do you think everyone is like you, still single and raising a dog? Calling yourself a single dog is like cursing yourself!"

"Don't make such jokes, kid!" Uchiha Itachi's expression was about to crack. What kind of friends did Sasuke make? They even wanted to drug him. But considering that this girl even tricked Sasuke into wearing women's clothing, it wasn't impossible for her to do something crazy.

"If you really like someone, just confess. Don't always wait for the girl to make the first move!" Shisui smiled and walked over, patting Itachi's shoulder and giving him a suggestive look.

"Shisui, why are you..." Itachi was really helpless. Even Shisui was joining in on the fun.

Sasuke listened to everyone discussing how to matchmake his older brother and Uchiha Izumi, and his anger was about to explode. His older brother was his, how could he be taken away by someone else?
