Meanwhile, Naruto, Shikamaru, and the rest of the H2O crew had been assembling the tubes by connecting them with the other. They were all standing on top of the flat surface of the sandy mountain while wearing their oxygen masks on, including the safety goggles. This was only for the case of emergency.
"Alright. Is everyone ready to water down all of the gas?" Baki asked for reassurance.
"Hmm. Yes, sir!" They nodded firmly in unison.
"Good. Now, hold on tight in your positions!" Baki commanded strictly out loud.
"Shit. What if this plan won't work? We got to use our own jutsu," Naruto whispered quietly to Shikamaru behind him.
"Oh, light up, will ya? Definitely it will. You got to trust the process," the leaf jounin leader stated carefully with a slight chuckle.
"Trust the process?! Pfft. My ass," the blonde-haired ninja muttered scornfully under his breath in his mask.
"Ahem. Is there a problem, boys?" Baki questioned as he approached beside them.
"Ahh! No, no, sir Baki," Naruto's eyes startled when he motioned his hand back and forth and laughed nervously.
"Hehe. We are just waiting to drench the air contamination, you know," Shikamaru said formally and secretly narrowed his eyes at the blonde-haired ninja to not comment any further.
"In about thirty seconds or so. And after this, it will all be over. Okay, everyone. Listen up," Baki called out to get their attention and continued on. "Once all of the five remaining seals are activated, you must saturate the bottom of this village, which is at the exact same time as the rest of the other crews around these mountains. Each five seals contains purified liquid suffusion, making it 20 times bigger and double amount of its capacity. We don't have time to waste, so I expect that we should all work together and end this horrid mess. Quit slacking off or else I will sue your asses down. In other words, I will take good beatings on you. Heh. Just kidding. No, but seriously, if you do not concentrate on this task, you will lose your title or position as a shinobi. Now, when the timer goes off in ten seconds, I'll blow the air horn when you open the water hoses."
"Right!" Everyone replied strongly in accordance.
"Okay, get ready! Five, four, three, two, one!" Baki held up the air horn on the front of the crew and blared it noisily. "GOO!"
Naruto, Shikamaru, and the rest of the shinobi started to cry out in rally as they hose down the water all over the buildings while the seals had started to switch on and released a huge splashes of water like a rainfall.
"Wooahh!" They gasped in amazement as they grinned happily and continued on to eliminate all the toxic gases out of the areas permanently until the very last drop of the hoses.
Back in the attic, Kankuro and Temari started to travel down the tunnels without notifying their younger brother about their whereabouts. One of them was holding the map while the other is reading the history book with the keys inside it.
"This is so fun. We never have this kind of adventure," the purple-faced ninja said snickering.
"Ugh. Oh, please. I'm certain that we are much more in trouble for doing this gimmick," Temari noted, rolling her eyes.
"Maybe. Maybe not. We'll see. Okay, so the cave is just right around the hallway of our tunnel area," Kankuro said, pointing out the direction from the map.
"Wait, shouldn't we also retrace our steps back in case we might gone astray?" Temari mentioned and continued on. "If we do, we have to put light marbles on the ground."
With that said, she laid down every pieces of balls as they continue to walk silently as possible. Once they've reached the door of the cave, they decided to stopped by and think for a second.
"Hold on. Before we go in, we have to make sure that we prepare ourselves," the purple-faced ninja noted as scrolled up the map and shoved it in his bag.
The ponytail-haired kunoichi sighed tiredly and admitted impressively. "Wow, you really are into this kind of arrangement. I must say, I'm proud to have you as a brother."
"Yeah. Thanks for the compliment," Kankuro grinned with a curt nod.
"Okay, anyway. Let's peek in," Temari said as she stick her kunai knife through the wall to make a small dotted holes for them to view the indoors.
Both of them had their eyes focused on the inner cave and the first thing that they saw was very ominous form of convention. There were dark purple aura circling around the red circle, which happens to be an offering.
"What the fuck is that...?" Kankuro cursed slowly under his breath with his eyes widened in horror.
Inside the cave shows three black figures discussing their plan.
"Deidara, I'm advising you to capture her as soon as possible. If all else fails, I will absolutely destroy you and you wouldn't be able to breathe, do you understand?" The mysterious girl asked for his expected answer.
"Ugh. Yes, yes. I'll do it. But what about you? Shouldn't you also be obliterating the heads of those leaf and sand shinobi? Don't forget about where you came from, hmm. I, the artist, will be erupting one of my biggest masterpieces of art. They will like the surprise, yeah," the blonde-haired Akatsuki member nodded arrogantly with his arms crossed.
"Ah. Well, be careful with that. You might lose another arm," the white Zetsu chuckled in amusement and continued on with a sigh, saying. "The master will be pleased to hear this news once we unleash our powers that will destroy every human being. You, my lady, are amazing."
The mysterious girl laughed proudly and said. "Of course. Plus, this will be a perfect treat for that pink-haired bitch."
The three of them began to laugh wickedly as they continued forward to talk over their strategies.
"This is going to be bad..." Temari said strongly as she tries not to panic and guessed what it was. "A sacrifice?!"
"Oh, shit!" Kankuro swore in a whisper and tries to figure out who the mysterious girl is until he noticed a light strand of hair that naturally fell from the side of her neck, dawning him into realization. "That can't be..."
"Huh?! What are you talking about? Hey, Kankuro. What did you see?" Temari asked when his brother pointed out towards the girl. Then, her eyes began to widened in disbelief and shock at who she truly is. "Impossible..."
Later on in the afternoon, the medical nurses and doctors were taking an hour break while Sakura continues to work restlessly by curing the patients' wounds and injuries. A few of the workers noticed something strange happening to her and they have no idea what it is, so one of them politely asks her.
"Uh... Miss Haruno, are you sure that you don't need take a moment to have a break? I mean, you've been working so hard nonstop lately and your eyes haven't been blinking for quite sometime now," the medical doctor guy said laughing nervously at her unusual state until he froze in his spot as he watches her shaking involuntarily. "Miss Haruno? Are you feeling alright?"
Sakura stood up from her chair and lift it up using both arms and threw it across the wall as it broke slightly almost in half, much to the others' fear and dismay. The patients began to move away further from her since she started losing self-control.
Her eyes turned bright red as she started yelling at one of the nurses. "Just mind your own business!"
"Woah, miss Haruno... Hold on. You must be out of-" the medical doctor stuttered nervously.
"WHAT?! You got a problem with me?! You know I'm sick and tired of y'all complaining about your health," Sakura growled angrily as she grabbed one of the medical instruments that appears to be a knife. She held it down and started walking towards him, whereas the others started running away screaming for help and in motion.
"Miss! Please calm down! You must take a rest! Don't take your anger on a few of the ill-patients-" One of the medical nurses pleaded.
"Shut up! I don't care!" The pink-haired kunoichi shouted with a low tone of her voice, which seems to be strange and unusual. Her eyes were still glowing bright red.
Outside the hospital receptionist desk, the medical kunoichi was calling for a quick emergency using her telepathic mind.
"Sir! We need your help! Apparently, Miss Haruno has lost control and she's been taking out tantrums on her patients," she ranted out.
"What room?" He asked sternly.
"Eh. Section room B14," the nurse answered. "Please hurry!"
"Alright, I'll be on my way," he said as he untouched the right side of his temple and formed his hand a tight fist on his table.
He then stood up from his chair and flew out of his office with his dark brown cape on like a swish vanish and drops a small cherry blossom origami paper on the floor.
