Shikamaru and Choji stood together, with Shikamaru wearing the green Chunin vest. After a moment, Naruto reached into his seal space and pulled out his own green Chunin vest. Yugito had been imprisoned for over six months now, receiving treatment similar to that of Kurama before her. The difference is that the seal space is no longer in Naruto's body, but in a separate space. Even if Yugito wanted to escape, it would probably be a pipe dream. Naruto's goal was to suppress Kumogakure and use Sasuke's identity to make a small warning. Since he was able to capture Nibi right under the noses of the Kumogakure’s people, then one day, he could capture Killer B, Raikage's most cherished brother.

Though Yugito was an unfortunate collateral victim, being imprisoned was better than losing her life. It's impossible to release her, so he would just lock her up for now. Anyway, Naruto doesn't have any ideas for the current situation. There are too many pressing issues to deal with, and Naruto had to handle them one by one. After donning the green vest that symbolized the ‘weaker’ Chunin, Naruto suddenly felt his presence diminish. He couldn’t help but gasp, ‘Damn it! Is this why Konoha's Chunin has no sense of existence?’ He looked over at his familiar friends. Tenten and Neji looked normal in their attire, but Choji wasn’t wearing a vest, likely because there wasn’t one in his size. Seeing his buddy stand out so much, Naruto couldn’t bear it. So he took off his vest, stood next to Choji, bumped into his tumbler-like body and said, "Chouji, I don't wear it either." Hearing this, Choji looked confused, "I'm wearing clothes, though." Naruto: “…” "I'm talking about the Chunin vest." "Oh, that! I couldn’t find one big enough." Choji patted his belly and said, "And if I use my Multi-Size Technique, my Chunin vest will burst." As soon as these words came out, Naruto snapped his head toward him, suddenly eyeing Choji up and down. Choji felt a little uncomfortable under Naruto’s odd gaze. He took a step back with a chill and said while covering his chest with his chubby arms, "If you’ve got something to say, just say it. Don’t look at me like that." "I just wanted to ask… are your clothes passed down through generations?" Naruto lowered his voice and asked mysteriously, with an expression that said, ‘I won't tell anyone’. To be honest, being able to expand and shrink his body at will was something even Naruto envied. But at the same time, he was also very curious whether Choji's clothes was made by the same tailor who designed the Hulk’s stretchy pants. "What are you even talking about?" Choji, though embarrassed, noticed they were surrounded by friends, so he relaxed and joked back, "I just infuse some Chakra into the clothes, that’s all." "Oh wow, being able to grow and shrink like that is so convenient." Naruto praised sincerely. The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously. Tenten, who was waiting on the side, accidentally heard the conversation between the two, and her face immediately turned red and she lowered her head quietly, ‘Boys’ conversations… so perverted.’ There was still some time before the gathering, and Lee couldn't sit still. While doing push-ups, he listened to the conversation between the two people. After standing up, he joined the conversation between Naruto and Choji. His round eyes looked at the clothes on Choji’s body, then at his own bright green training clothes. Suddenly, he became excited and pointed at Choji’s clothes. "Amazing! They can grow and shrink!" Tenten couldn’t take it anymore. She punched Lee in the head and shouted, "Lee! Don’t say stuff like that!" "Ah! Why not?" Lee was baffled, not realizing how weird the topic could sound to someone with a more grown-up perspective. Simply put, as people grow older, their view of things becomes… well, a little less innocent. What you see isn’t always what it seems. Shikamaru, with a long face, didn’t join the casual banter. As the team leader, he was preoccupied with the mission’s difficulty. It involved long-distance travel, and also involved diplomacy. More importantly, they may encounter unforeseen dangers on the way. The pressure of leading a team of eight people is extremely great. Listening to Naruto, Choji, and Lee talk about growing and shrinking made Shikamaru smile wryly, ‘Once again, I found myself in a troublesome situation I couldn’t avoid.’ His gaze lazily swept across the group until it lingered briefly on Naruto’s neck. Then, he suddenly asked, "Naruto, what happened to your neck?" "Mosquito bite." Naruto blurted out instinctively without even thinking. Only amateurs hesitate when lying. Naruto, after being caught so many times, had mastered the art of smooth deception. Fortunately, Shikamaru didn’t press the issue, and just asked casually. But Neji glanced at Naruto, and his Byakugan made Naruto feel a bit uneasy. "Are there mosquitoes this time of year? It’s not even summer yet, right?" Lee asked, genuinely confused. "Mutated mosquitoes. The world’s a big place, a few strange mosquitoes are normal." Naruto brushed it off casually, quickly changing the subject, "Hey, Lee, did you get a haircut?" “No.” Nearby, Sakura and Tenten were chatting. Sakura’s peripheral vision caught Naruto messing around with his friends, and a faint, almost imperceptible smile flickered across her lips. A moment later, Ino came running up, slightly out of breath but just in time. Naruto noticed the pink band-aid on her neck and instantly understood what she had been doing. However, Tenten looked at Ino with some curiosity and asked, "Ino, what happened to your neck?" "Oh, I was..." Ino was about to say that she was bitten by a bug, but when her eyes met Naruto's, her sixth sense suddenly told her that something was wrong, so she quickly changed her answer, "I accidentally scratched it on some flowers." "Oh, Ino has a hard time as well." Tenten commented, sounding almost like an old man. "Don't talk like some old uncle, Tenten." Ino sighed, rubbing his forehead. The three girls chatted together, but Sakura remained more thoughtful. She turned her head and glanced at Naruto for a brief second before looking away. "Alright, since we’re all here, let’s move out!" Shikamaru gave the order. "Yes!" Once they entered mission mode, the playful atmosphere disappeared, and everyone became more serious. Shikamaru led the way, Neji scouted ahead, and Naruto took the rear. The team composition was well-balanced. Sakura was the main Medical-nin, and Ino knew some basic Medical Ninjutsu, together making up almost half of a medical team. For an eight-person team, having one and a half medical Shinobi was a luxury. Neji handled reconnaissance, with Team 3 covering close and long-range combat, and Team 10 brought their clan’s secret control techniques, with Naruto providing the heavy firepower. Even against a typical Jonin tean, they could hold their own. The journey was long and monotonous. After several days of travel, the group finally arrived at Sunagakure. Amidst the swirling sand, they saw the welcoming party from Sunagakure. There were a couple of Jonin and a few Kunoichi, with Temari standing proudly in the middle.
