A/N: So following the latest episode of Boruto, Sasuke is said to be investigating Urasaki's whereabouts.
Well the story takes place sometime after when Urasaki strikes in Konoha again...
Reviews always appreciated.. it's only my second fanfic. ( I'll be writing this in a few chapters for suspense purposes I guess lol enjoy!)
The village of Konoha was attacked by a previously mentioned Otsutsuki clan member, Urasaki.
Although the village's structure is barely destroyed, the medical team has counted numerous injuries varying from superficial to lethal. While the nanadaime Uzumaki Naruto and his supporting shadow Uchiha Sasuke are fighting the enemy beyond the village's frontiers, their fellow team mate Uchiha Sakura, is using all her chakra reserves to heal the wounded.
The extremely skillful kinoichi is facing an enourmous challenge: the enemy has induced a fast spreading disease into the population; together with other medics and assistance from the Hyuga Clan, including former heiress Uzumaki Hinata, she analyses the disease's structure and quickly finds a cure.
Urasaki has cast the geographical area surrounding Konoha with a disease that slowly absorbs chakra from people whilst spreading it to the next as the chakra flows through the air to him. The members of team seven had then decided to put as much distance between him and his chakra reserves while they found a way to stop the epidemic.
Since the disease was transmitted through chakra, Sakura needed to find a way to release the antidote she had quickly found in large quantities through the same means.
As she was discussing the possibilities with Katsuyu the slug princess, an idea ran through her busy brain cells.
" We could release the chakra the same way we do for healing. Damn how did we not think about this... Katsuyu, if my chakra and yours are coated with the antidote we can transmit it to everyone around since your clones surround the village " she blurted out, somehow ashamed not to have thought about it immediately.
" Sakura-chan that's a great idea but... your chakra.." Katsuyu retorted in a sad voice.
Hinata who was standing by their side, used her Byakougan to check her friend's chakra levels... at this rate she will be knocked out for days. But she knew that Sakura always thought about everyone's health before hers. She could even lose the seal that she had spent years conserving her chakra to obtain.
" Sakura.. how certain are we that this will work?" Hinata added, a serious tone of concern in her voice.
Sakura looked up at her, the worry was evident in her soft eyes. " it's a fifty fifty actually... but it's all we got. To make sure we should pick a sample area and try our luck "
Sakura was in medic mode, Hinata noticed. It had been long since the village faced this type of medical threat, and she wanted to do everything to help.
" Then let me help you. My chakra reserves are still pretty full. I can't just sit here and watch " she offered
Sakura smiled at her friend who had not only inherited her Best friend's surname, but his zeal to help and protect others. They were definitely a perfect match, she thought.
" Hai, let's do this!" She happily responded while Katsuyu got her clones ready for the intervention.
The early morning breeze was slowly coming over to Konoha's AN gated; Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto, two half-god Shinobi we're walking back towards the village, completely battered from their bloodlust filled fight with the Otsutsuki member. The man had been killed in the same way as his fellow clan member, though the dobe's son was not present to give the final blow.
" Daaamn. Do you think Sakura-chan will have enough chakra left to heal us ? Cause I'm going to have some crazy work after this nightmare " he spoke happily to his brother, reminiscing all the times they had successfully knocked out an enemy together during their genin days.
" Hn... don't be too hopeful. We don't even know what happened with the disease . She might still be trying to cure everyone so we'll wait" he retorted in an almost warning tone to his voice.
" Hai hai you're right. But I'm sure she's taken care of it. The Hyuga were also there to help with chakra so I hope she's not overworked herself " said the blonde, a tone of compassion in his voice. Even if they were dealing with the fight, Sakura's mission was just as difficult to handle — nothing was ever easy with that damn clan, he thought.
His only wish was that his best friend was safe and sound; it was his duty after all to protect the villagers, and even if Itachi had warned him not try and do everything by himself, he would certainly not forgive himself if his sister got hurt in his place— he still had that overprotectiveness over her, no matter how strong she had become.
Sasuke on the other side, had learned to trust his wife more than anyone else: he knew at the back of his mind that she had found a solution to the epidemic, though he was sure, she was going to be even more tired than he was.
He might as well spend a couple of days at home, his battered body cuddled against his chakra-depleted wife's would surely increase both of their healing— he inwardly smirked at this thought.
And so the two Shinobi made their way to the village,both trusting their comrade to have wrapped up the mission. Though they didn't expect what happened on their arrival.
They totally didn't.
