Ep. 21: Sasuke and Sarada
Shizune learns from Sakura that Sarada left the village to meet Sasuke, fearing she might be drawn into his past conflicts. At the tower, Sarada confronts Sasuke about his absence and the woman in a photo, causing her to leave in tears. Naruto and Sasuke reflect on Sasuke’s secret mission to guard against threats like Kaguya. A mysterious attacker named Shin Uchiha arrives with clones to revive Akatsuki using Sasuke’s Sharingan. Shin uses a visual prowess technique to mark Sasuke’s sword, causing it to pierce Naruto. Shin then targets Sarada, but Sasuke intervenes, getting pinned by Shin’s blades. Sakura appears and defeats Shin with a single punch. As Naruto grabs Shin, a creature teleports Sakura away instead of Sarada, leaving her surrounded by Shin’s sons in his hideout.
