His two teammates returned to reality just in time to see him swinging a kunai toward each nukenin's temple. Sakura, ever the quicker with the mental faculties (and the screeching of their conclusions), decided that a prisoner was more useful than a corpse and screamed, "No!" Unfortunately for her, said scream proved so similar to the previous that it was summarily ignored (as well as damaged several ear drums). On the positive side, Central Command came to the same conclusion, and Naruto swung the kunai ring first. After the blows connected, he looked at his hands and noted that he held kunai he didn't remember drawing (though he knew, logically, that he had them before he began his advance).
With the new unconsciousness of the OPPFOR, most of the adrenaline and some of the rage began draining from his system. He collapsed to his knees and issued an order, unaware that it was the first of many. "Sasuke, bind and gag them. We'll be going full speed back to Konoha. If the drunk gives any objection to being carried, bind and gag him too." Though Sasuke resented being ordered around by the dobe, he simply grunted and obeyed. Naruto had earned it... this time.
Twenty minutes and a quick Kage Bunshin later, they gathered all their 'packages' (including Tazuna, who had in fact complained) and set off toward Konoha. Naruto himself bore Kakashi, in all his pieces, not relegating his corpse to a Kage Bunshin or a teammate. It was the least he could do after he contributed to the man's demise. No one on the way back had any right to complain that they were travelling slowly; in fact, they pushed their own limitations as hard as their bodies would let them.
