Sarada persuades Konohamaru to continue the battle as Team 7 defeats a White Zetsu. The group discovers Sasuke has been nearby, using his Amaterasu to burn the remaining enemies. Konohamaru explains that Sasuke is on a secret mission to investigate the Ootsutsuki clan, which must remain hidden from the ninja world. Afterward, Team 7 departs the area.
