As soon as possible Kakashi Sensei went to catch up his work to move on to new mission . Sai was told to give this information to Naruto and Sakura . He found Sakura on the way to Naruto's house and told her to get to the Konoha Gate by sharp 10 . He then went to Naruto's home finding him sleepy . No replies to the doorbells . He went to see him from window , he was in deep sleep . He started to knock the window in case if he will get any reply . And for the sake of hokage , he waked up . He answered to Sai . Sai told him nothing but only to get to the Konoha Gate by 10 AM knowing that even if he tell him , nothing will stay in his mind . He then departured to finish his work .  Naruto with less of his mind woke up and started his routine to move for mission .

At quarter to 10 Sai and Sakura were there at Konoha gate . Giving each other cold vibes that they will do this mission better than previous . The day was warm with blowing breezes , Giving Konoha it's happy looks . After about 5 to 6 minutes Kakashi Sensei arrived . He was on time for a day . Giving Sai and Sakura a smile with eyes hoping to have a good mission , as he already knew about what happened in the last mission . And now it was time for Naruto's arrival . Who quietly arrived at correct 10 AM . Well it was not that quietly.  He ambushed them from woods who knows what he was doing outside the Konoha and when did he get there . Seeing him their made whole team happy that they won't be late for the mission . From the look of Kakashi he seemed to be satisfied with the team . As from a long time his team 7 was not assembled . Not knowing about what to do Naruto just started to follow them as for the moment no chance for him was given to talk . Sai and Kakashi have known the reason for mission . After a while crossing trees , Naruto eagerly asked Sensei , " What is the mission Kakashi Sensei and where are we going ?". Kakashi was in front of the team to give them a guidance to Land of Sandalwoods . " We have a mission to check on The land of Sandalwoods ". He gave the answer with no efforts . Naruto seemed confused , " I have never heard about it ! Do such a land exist ? " He never known about it . Sakura seemed to be worried , " It's impossible ! How can this mission exist ! " Giving the idea of her mind that she knows about it ! " It's glad that you know about it Sakura ! "Said Sai with smile . " What ! What are you guys saying ? " With no idea Naruto now got interested in mission . " Well Naruto , Land of Sandalwoods is somehow similar with Land of rain ! They never open themselves with others ! " Kakashi started to explain with moving . " And now we got letter that they need help ! So we have to go to help them ." With small amount of words Kakashi tried to explain him . For Naruto that was the best to understand . " Land of rain , well i don't know . But they asked for help so we have to go ! " With his helping nature Naruto was ready to give them a full help . After going close to the border of Land of fire , the excitement between Sai , Sakura and Kakashi increased . The land where no one is allowed is now will be seen by them . Lots of questions , why they don't interfere with others matter and for now why they want help . And only with land of fire . Especially the village konoha .

The day passed it was now the evening time . The day was went off like a second . All they were in such hurry that they didn't catch up that four of them was moving with extra speed than they usually do . Reaching the border of the Land of Sandalwood Kakashi noticed ! " I wasn't expected to reach here so quick ! " He mumbled . Sai heard " me too !" " It was supposed to 2 to 3 days." Sakura too now was seen concerned about it ! Naruto with no idea was  got ahead of them as he saw the entrance to the Land . The emerge gate was there written as " Sandalwoods " . Naruto stopped there waiting for others . As he reached someone came from shadow , having a curved back bone and with wrinkles all over his face covered with white long beard . Having certainly height of Naruto but as he aged and with that curved at his back he was looking small in front of him . He was looking like a sage mentioned in fairy tales . In a time Naruto will say anything the three of them reached . As they reached Kakashi noticed something . He felt some chakra flowing over there . Sai too was having a feeling about it . But regardless Naruto had no idea . And Sakura too was unknown about it . As a leader Kakashi moved in front of them and took a lead . Seeing Kakashi coming the old sage said , " Thank you so much for coming , we were waiting for you ! " Greeting them with the posture like bowing which he was physically not able do . Kakashi with embarrassed tone said , " we possibly tried to arrive soon to help you . But i consider it's really took very soon as we expected ! " That sentence hit the old man's thoughts . He with weird tone started to invite them inside , " ah , please please . Have a rest for today . I might tell you the whole story what happened . But please have a rest ! " He started to walk in front of them showing a way . They started to follow . Naruto was in excitement to see how the land of Sandalwood looks like . Seeing the huge gate and the whole area was covered with tall trees . By seeing no one might guess does the land exist here . By walking Kakashi was now surprised and thinking about how he got here withing just a day . With full speed too , it might take 2 days at least . Wondering what was happening ! He was sensing some flow of charka too . Feeling like someone was watching him . He took look here and there but no presence of any one was there . He took a look to Sai , thinking he might figured out something . But Sai too looked surprised . He was trying to capture all the things in his mind . Kakashi considered it might be his mission from danzo . In meeting with hokage Kakashi was told to keep eye on Sai . He might do things which are not appropriate . But thing was in Kakashi mind was ,  a previous mission to find about trades , in which he tried to check on land of Sandalwoods , And followed the traders .
