In the same dark forest where Naruto had previously been found with the 1st Hokage's Secret Scroll, Sakura stood atop a tree with a thoughtful look on her face. Trying to grasp her next action.

On top of that, she trained to maintain a number of Clones while using the Body Flicker Technique.

Or to be more precise: 'Afterimage Clones'.

These were different from the projection types that had no strength, as each clone could be her real body at any particular moment. Unless all of them were attacked simultaneously, the main body wouldn't be able to be easily found among them.

But it put too much strain on her body and chakra reserves to be useful yet. It would be saved for now. Unless she was going to go all out without thinking of future plans, it was better to hide it.

"Three is my limit, huh?" She couldn't help but be a little disappointed. Her body was limiting her.

She'd heard that 'Sishui of the Body Flicker', a legend of the Uchiha Clan, was able to create a lot more clones like this. Each one of them could display the same strengths of Shadow Clones despite having no mass. But couldn't go too far.

Unlike proper 'Shadow Clones', they could only be maintained at a certain distance from each other.

Such a weakness didn't really matter though.

This clone technique was specifically created for battle, unlike Naruto's reconnaissance type Jutsu.

It was part of her special strategy.

To go against monsters who could release giant kaiju Tailed Beasts to fight, she needed to be quick enough to never get hit. Like a sky of shooting stars, unlike the Raikage's thunderous speed.

The 'Flying Thunder God Technique' added one layer of movement, and 'Body Flicker' another.

Allowing her to dodge pretty much anything.

Once she was done and released her Clones, her body disappeared. A tiny streak of yellow lightning shot towards a tree miles away. Rather than the speedy Body Flicker, this was true teleportation.

It was only after extensively training this Jutsu did she realise... why Sasuke was so fond of these two techniques in the Fifth Great Ninja War. They truly complimented each other when mastered fully.

Body Flicker being harder to incorporate than the actual S Rank supplementary type movement skill.

Despite being a type of Fūinjutsu (Sealing Ninjutsu) that Sasuke had a harder time learning, it was without question that it was great. This technique was the best offensive and defensive Space-Time Ninjutsu, with instantaneous teleportation speed.

Even Obito's Kamui, that could create portals and bend space, couldn't compare to this in execution.

Kamui, being a Sharingan specific ability, had its own strengths outside of teleportation itself.

In her past life, Sakura had only been able to use the first level (which is the basic application of the applying Formula Marks in the midst of battle), the second level (which was an advanced combat technique derived from this Jutsu that could attack from a person's blind spot), and the fourth level (what she used to travel back into the past using massive amounts of Chakra).

Though despite her extensive mastery of the Flying Thunder God Technique, there was no way she compared with the Sasuke of the future. This was due to missing his signature technique he created by fusing his Lightning Release with this Jutsu.

The third level of this technique was forever unattainable to her in the past. The 'Third Step'...

Something she studied but could never attain.
