Shikamaru remembers a past mission where Team 10 collaborated with Team 7 to save a hostage held by bandits causing chaos in a village. Guided by Tofu, a former bandit member, they approach the enemy hideout. Tofu is captured and revealed to be working for Baji, the bandit leader. The genin infiltrate the fortress, and Shikamaru offers himself as a trade for Tofu. However, Baji silences Shikamaru, preventing him from communicating his strategy to his teammates during the exchange. This memory is part of the Locus of Konoha arc, specifically episode 20 or 21.
