Naruto: I Can Take People Through the Ninja World in the Future

As dusk approached, in Konoha Village, Naruto and Sai were transporting the last of the supplies to be relocated.

Since Danzo’s death, all Root Anbu ninjas had been reorganized and integrated into the main Anbu, now under Kakashi’s leadership and command.

Even the tongue curse seal that once bound them had vanished.

Sai was now truly free.

Of course, other ninjas accustomed to Root’s dark and bloody lifestyle might need time to adjust.

Blending with Naruto and the others as easily as Sai did was difficult for them.

"Naruto, based on the timeline, Akatsuki should be arriving soon, right?"

"Hmm, I know."

"If Sasuke is among them, you..."

"I won’t let Sasuke harm the village!"

"I know. But Shikamaru spoke to me. He said if Sasuke does show up, he hopes we handle him. It’d be better for you and the village."
