428

Thinking about her friendship, Tenten asks Kurenai to learn more about the genjutsu, but in her dream world, Kurenai refuses, and they discuss various methods about failed attempts. Later, Tenten sees the man disguised as a merchant, who asks and gives a map to Tenten about the Rain Village that can break the genjutsu. That night, the guards capture and arrest Tenten for attempting to leave the village. They reveal the intel about the Rain ninja attack, checking the map, which secretly revealed as a letter. While in jail, Tenten sees Lee and Neji calling outside. While Tenten recalls her friendship, the Leaf Village is invaded by intruders of the Rain ninja that uses the summoning formula. Menma brings the man in jail and asks her Tenten to help everyone. As Menma with the Tailed Beast mode distracts Hanzou and his giant salamander, Tenten uses her Treasured Tools scroll to defeat Hanzou to thwart the attack of the Rain ninja. As Menma and friends congratulate Tenten, she smiles and says that she belongs in the dream world.
