Sakura, Shino, Haruto, and Hinata have all been assigned to go to this village to help them out the Village of the Shadows have been attacked badly all the people flead so Haruto and Hinata are helping the person who they met when first coming to the village named Ryuu and there is another village that needs protecting so Sakura and Shino goes to help that Village. They are going to be staying there for a few months until they can figure out how to stop this war.

Meanwhile Sasuke has been getting stronger over the past 4 months and he feels powerful now all the training ended up being useful and he's been helping a bunch of villages near East a lot of people know him and the girls all like him like have crushes on him but he only likes one girl which is Sakura but he doesn't show it and Sakura likes him back. Ryuu starts liking Hinata for her kindness and how she is always shy and always kind even when they found some of the villagers she was taking it so easy on them. The more Haruto and Hinata stayed in the village the more he realized they didn't have no family like how he doesn't have no mother or father or any family members.

Hinata still needs to try and confess her feelings to Haruto since Sakura says she should so when she sees Haruto sitting near the river by himself planning on comeback she walks towards but then when Haruto sees Hinata he says

Haruto: I can kind of relate to these people..
