With Nimato

Nimato hopped from branch to branch at high speed beside him was Sakura, Kakashi and Chiyo. The old woman had decided to come since she personally wanted to help stop her grandson Sasori. The old woman had originally attacked Kakashi which had been surprising but Nimato had found out by Kakashi that it was due to the grudge Chiyo held against Kakashi's father for killing her son and daughter in law.

Nimato glanced at Sakura for a moment as he was surprised at just how good she had become under the tutorage of Tsunade she had been able to take charge of the medical treatment for the patients at Sunagakure and how she had been able to remove the poison Kankuro had been infected with from his battle with Sasori.

"What should we do Kakashi-sensei if we come across a member of the Akatsuki?" Sakura asked as Kakashi was the team leader not to mention he had the most experience when it came to fighting the Akatsuki.

"Depending on which one it is...we'll think of a plan then" Kakashi responded and honestly he had no idea which member of the Akatsuki he would encounter he knew Izumi was one of the toughest people he had ever seen she had completely crushed him in a matter of seconds so to say.

Sakura frowned at her sensei's words she knew the Akatsuki members were the toughest of the toughest and there was no way to just easily beat these people, looking to Nimato she wondered how he would feel if they came in contact with Naruto since the two of them would most likely start fighting straight away.

Chiyo narrowed her eyes at the Konoha team she had no idea why they were so determined to save Gaara he wasn't their Kage and to be honest she wasn't even here to save Gaara either she was here to stop her grandson Sasori who she had thought was dead. However the little Konoha team did spike her interest she knew the power of the Akatsuki first hand after seeing Deidara fighting Gaara and from what she had heard he was one of the weaker ones in the Akatsuki.

Nimato clenched his fist in anticipation who would be the first Akatsuki member to step in his way of saving his friend...he hoped it wasn't Naruto...there was no way they could come out unharmed if they were to fight Naruto and Nimato knew Naruto wouldn't hold back the two of them had told each other the next time they saw each other they would be enemies and that meant one of them would get their ass kicked.

The most important thing now was to save Gaara Nimato knew the hell Gaara must have gone through as a child he knew the loneliness that came with being a Jinchuriki and for Nimato Gaara was one of the only few people that could relate to him.

Konohagakure No Sato

Jiraiya sighed at Tsunade why did she have to send Nimato on this mission he knew better than anyone just how strong Nimato had become but he wasn't ready to fight at an even level with the Akatsuki unless he dived into the power of the Kyuubi...which was completely out of the question he had seen Nimato's full control of the Kyuubi and the most he could control was three tails...after that was a monster that almost even killed Jiraiya.

"You don't think he's ready?" Tsunade asked Jiraiya as he looked outside of the window in the office.

"It's hard to say...he's still too emotional and it can sometimes cause a lapse in his judgement" Jiraiya answered as best as he could.
