Naruto Uzumaki and Sakura Haruno stood at the edge of the battlefield, watching Sasuke Uchiha defeat Shin with ease.
It was a completely one-sided battle!
At first, Sasuke had held back from striking ruthlessly because he wanted to learn about Shin's forces and gather more intelligence.

Moreover, Sasuke already understood
