At last, the feeling of being watched was gone. Chen Fan let out a breath, and the smile faded from his face. When cats fought each other, they started by staring each other down, competing in sheer presence. The side with the stronger presence would surely win. Though they had not actually fought this time, Chen Fan had gained a slight upper hand. Yet he felt no joy at all. Akatsuki had still set their sights on him. Have I been too high-profile lately?
What a pity he did not have Naruto's Talk-no-Jutsu, the ability to talk every enemy into surrendering.
Suddenly, several voices rang out. "Teacher Chen Fan!" Chen Fan turned and saw Kakashi hurrying over with Naruto and Sakura.
"Teacher Chen Fan, where's Sasuke?" Uzumaki Naruto asked anxiously.
Chen Fan shook his head. "Sorry, I ran into a little trouble on the way, and they escaped using a teleportation technique, so I don't know where they are."
"What do we do? Teacher Chen Fan, if Sasuke is taken away by Orochimaru, his life will be in danger." Sakura spoke with a worried expression.
Seeing the anxiety on Sakura's face, Uzumaki Naruto seemed to make up his mind. "I'll definitely bring Sasuke back. Sakura, don't worry."
"You don't need to worry about Uchiha Sasuke's safety for the time being," Chen Fan said.

Souls can be transferred, but not too frequently. The interval between body changes must be at least three years, so you still have three years."
