Ch. 241Searching for the Truth
After Sakura’s defection, Meihui’s teams searched the Land of Fire while Sakura used a new disguise technique to approach Konoha and target her parents. Meihui suspected she had a system, rushed back to the village, and attacked her at the gates.
- Tsunade mourned Ino as Jiraiya comforted her, while Meihui organized a broad search for Sakura and warned the other villages about her defection.
- Sakura hid in a cave, received the Thousand Faces Technique from her system, and decided to sever her ties to her parents before anyone could use them against her.
- Jiraiya arranged protection for Sakura’s parents, anticipating that she might target them, while Sakura traveled toward Konoha in disguise.
- Meihui suspected Sakura had a system because her strength had grown so suddenly, then used Flying Thunder God to return to Konoha with Naruto and Sasuke.
- Sakura passed through Konoha’s gates without being recognized, but Meihui suddenly attacked her from behind with a Rasengan.
