Team 7 took a triangle formation, with Naruto and Sasuke in front and Sakura behind. Sasuke and Sakura trusting Naruto's detection abilities, he will be the first to sense enemies.

"We really should create an effective battle plan for this survival test," Naruto said, leaping from a branch.

"Okay, over there in the clearing," Sasuke says, and they run into the clearing he was talking about, hiding behind some trees.

Sasuke says, "The plan is simple: find and ambush a weaker team for their parchment of the earth and bring them to the tower. We will act sparingly, even at night."

Naruto was confused by the last point, "Even at night?"

Sasuke nodded, "I was counting on your night vision."

Naruto agreed and said "I have an excellent opportunity to use my Shadow Clones to their full potential. I can search Earth Scrolls with them, but we'll have to find a place to wait. we will have the two parchments, I will be able to make decoys and distribute them between the three of us.

"Sounds good, Uzumaki. But where can we hide?"

Sakura spoke for the first time, "Sasuke-kun, we can hide up in the trees."

Sasuke raised an eyebrow, "How is that a good hiding place?"

"Our enemies believe we would not hide in the trees, because we know they know it. They will never guess that we will be hiding right above them."

Naruto nodded. It was a good plan for a temporary hiding place. "Alright, we'll do that. I'll make my clones and send them out first." He was holding a half-ram, and smokeless, forty shadow clones appeared, disappearing to complete their tasks just as quickly.

They settled on the highest level of a large tree. Naruto spread his senses, not wanting to be off guard for a moment. He took out his rolls and sealing supplies and began to prepare the decoys. "Remember that while searching for the scroll, they will also collect information about the teams to see if they are weak or strong. As soon as their memories come back to me, I will review them to select the best path to follow. "

"You're much worse in weight," Sakura said with some concern. Naruto smirked but remained silent.

When he was done with the decoys, a sudden rush of memories made his eyes widen. His teammates looked at him urgently, apprehension on their faces. Something had scared him and they didn't know much that could scare the strongest member of their team.

He turned to look at them and they almost flinched at the coldness in his eyes. "I'll say it again, Sakura, Sasuke. If you see Suna's team, run away. You see Suna's kunoichi, run, fly, disappear. I don't care what you do, but avoid the confrontation with her at any time. Cost Is that included ?! "He gave them an even colder look, to express his seriousness about the statement.


Sasuke's eyes narrowed. "Why, why is she so..." Naruto cut him off with a wave of his hand. With a straight face, he said, "It's better if you trust me on that, Sasuke. Now ..."

His expression became neutral again. "I found a team to ambush us. Do you remember Ame's team? They're a mile from us, northeast. If we hurry, we can catch them before we go. they don't fight over who gets the real and fake scrolls. "

Sasuke glanced at him sharply to change the subject, but didn't ask for more information. This time he was ahead of his target.

Just as they stopped behind a large tree, Naruto informed him, "The real parchment is with the one in the middle."

Sasuke said, "Alright. Naruto, do you have a plan?" He had accepted the fact that it would be better if Naruto made the plans between them. Naruto's plans followed the utmost discretion in such situations, which they needed at the moment.

Naruto nodded, forming three shadow clones without making a sound. "Sasuke, do you remember how Kakashi-sensei buried you in the bell test?" That's what these three are going to do. In case one of them escapes, you and Sakura take care of them.

Sasuke and Sakura looked at him speechless, "THIS IS THE BEST you have ?!" He hardly refrained from attacking it because the plan was completely stupid. Naruto smiled in a way that did nothing to comfort the raven haired avenger.

"No, but I hope they all escape my grip. The decoys I gave you? They're a bit dangerous so keep a safe distance after you've given them away. We'll see that we'll take the competition out completely. back off... in case they see you, "he said, preparing to jump into the tree.

"Because?!"

Naruto looked at the pink haired girl, "Every plan must have a backup plan." With that, he jumped.
