Meanwhile, Uchiha Gen returned to the Eastern Battlefield and learned that a team including Obito Uchiha had left for Rōran under Sarutobi Shinnosuke’s leadership.

• Ganghuo captured Sasori and his puppets, transported Sasori to his hidden base, and twisted off Sasori’s limbs while demanding to know his value.
