Sakura and Kurotsuchi had just destroyed all the puppets when they heard Naruto yelling 'Uzumaki Barrage'.

The next moment, they saw over a thousand clones kicking and punching Gaara who was extremely high in the air. Kankuro was scared by the display of power. At that moment, Sakura delivered the finishing blow as she punched Kankuro while yelling, 'SHANNARO!'

Kankuro was sent through a tree as he slammed into Temari who was held captive by Shikamaru and was being choked using shadow strangle jutsu.

Gaara was now transforming into shukaku.

"GAARA! STOP IT," yelled Naruto.

"Why? Why do you fight for this stupid village? You are like me. WHY!" yelled Gaara.

"Because there are people who love me, who feel my pain. I have friends here," said Naruto.

"I ONLY FIGHT FOR MYSELF! THERE IS NO ONE WHO LOVES ME! NOT EVEN MY OWN MOM LOVED ME!" he yelled.

"Lies. No true mother would not love her kid. Whoever told you, was wrong," said Naruto quietly.

"HOW DO YOU KNOW!" 

"Because I can feel it. Your sand. It's not Shukaku who moves it when you aren't looking. The way it moves, to protect you, it's something only a mother does. Its chakra is much different than your or Shukaku's. Even in her afterlife, your mother is protecting you," said Naruto solemnly.

"YOU ARE LYING! I MUST PROVE MY EXISTENCE!" he yelled, as he completely transformed into Shukaku.

Sakura, Kurotsuchi, and Shikamaru approached him.

"What now?" asked Shikamaru.

"Shikamaru, restrain both his teammates. Kurotsuchi, Sakura-chan, I am making a clone who will make the necessary seals for the sealing process of Shukaku. Please protect him from all dangers," said Naruto.

"Hai," said Sakura.

"Sasuke, do it," said Naruto.

---Flashback---

"Sasuke, your Sharingan can stay in Mangekyou form for about 10 minutes, after which it will start affecting your eyesight. So practice only for about 10 minutes each day," said Naruto.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sasuke had discovered some of the abilities of his Sharingan, including Tsukuyomi, Susanoo, and Amaterasu. He found out that his left eye could manipulate the Amaterasu flames.

"Summoning Jutsu!" yelled Naruto, and Gamabunta appeared.

"OYE GAKI! WHY DID YOU SUMMON ME?" asked Gamabunta.

"Chief, I need your help in fighting that crazed raccoon," said Naruto.

"ARE YOU MAD! I am not fighting some tailed beast."

"Come on, you said you would make me your henchman. Isn't it the duty of the chief to help his henchman?" asked Naruto.

"But we didn't have a drink to finalize it."

"I AM UNDERAGE FOR GOD'S SAKE!" yelled Naruto.

"Okay okay," said Gamabunta.

Others sweat-dropped at their antics.

"Sasuke."

Sasuke activated his Sharingan and made a Susanoo armor for Gamabunta.

"What is this armor kid! This is good," said Gamabunta.
