[PART I]
Naruto finally catches up with Sasuke. Naruto tries to convince Sasuke that it isn't too late to turn back and not to forget the experiences they had as Team 7. However, Sasuke is unaffected, going full out against Naruto while saying that he isn't leaving because everything they did as Team 7 was meaningless; he intends to kill Naruto because he is his best friend- which would be the way to attain the Mangekyo Sharingan. Naruto, however, doesn't know what Sasuke means and is deeply upset by Sasuke's words. After beating Naruto senseless, Sasuke has a flashback to his life as a child, revealing the reason he must go to Orochimaru is to fulfill his life's purpose of revenge; in the scene, he is crying as his older brother, whom he thought he once knew and shared many memories with, stands over the bodies of his parents with a bloodied ANBU katana. What makes it worse is that Itachi then proceeds to torture the broken and sobbing Sasuke with the Mangekyo Sharingan by showing Sasuke his parents' deaths at the hand of the person he used to look up to. This is what ultimately makes Sasuke betray Konoha in search of power.
Understanding that Sasuke will never return on his own, Naruto vows to bring Sasuke back by force, even if he must break every one of Sasuke's bones. The two of them keep raising the bar, Naruto with fox's chakra, Sasuke leveling his Sharingan to three tomoe, Naruto turning into a one-tailed state, and finally, Sasuke powering his Cursed Seal of Heaven to level 2. A demon fox-powered Naruto and Level-2 Cursed Seal Sasuke face off in a final clash, Chidori vs. Rasengan. The two attacks explode and bathe the two in a blinding white light. For a brief moment, their hands touch, and a scene of Sasuke and Naruto smiling at each other as children is shown. Before both are knocked out, Naruto purposely puts a scratch on Sasuke's protector (refuting Sasuke's boast that Naruto wasn't powerful enough to even scratch his forehead) at the same time Sasuke hits him. Naruto is slightly wounded and unconscious while Sasuke is left in critical condition by his cursed seal because Naruto quit the fight. Making it to his feet first, Sasuke is tempted to kill the helpless Naruto - his best friend - and thereby obtain the Mangekyo Sharingan. Sasuke, however, realizes that this is exactly what Itachi wants, and refuses to play by his rules. Sasuke vows to become stronger than Itachi his own way: through Orochimaru's powers.
This experience is traumatic to Naruto, not only because he has promised Sakura to bring Sasuke back, but also because it's the first time he is unable to live up to a promise he made to an important person. Unlike Jiraiya, however, who from his own experience with Orochimaru believes that Sasuke is out of reach so Naruto should forget about him and concentrate on his own survival, Naruto believes that there is still hope for Sasuke. He tells Sakura that he will, one day, bring Sasuke back to the village and live up to his promise. Sakura nods, and says determinedly that next time; they'll bring Sasuke back together.
[PART II]
Although the mission to rescue Sasuke was considered a complete failure, Shikamaru was commended for at least keeping everyone alive during the entire ordeal. Choji and Neji were saved by advanced healing techniques while he, Kiba and Naruto were returned to heal both their physical and emotional wounds. While in recuperation, Naruto is approached by Jiraiya telling him two vital pieces of information: that Orochimaru would not be able to join with Sasuke for three years and that Akatsuki also has a plan that will begin three years from now. Seeing the opportunity to assist him in training and protect him from his inevitable threats on both fronts, Jiraiya offers Naruto to train him for the future ordeals. Although unsure at first, Naruto eventually accepts Jiraiya's deal. Meanwhile, Sakura approaches Tsunade about training her so she would no longer be a helpless burden to her teammates, upon which the Hokage also accepts.
After some time, life returns to normal in the Leaf Village. Shikamaru sees off the Sand siblings while Kiba makes a new promise to protect Akamaru, Choji recovers and begins to rebulk up and Neji begins training again with his uncle Hiashi. Lee continues his own taijutsu training once again and even Sakura begins to show inroads in her healing abilities under Tsunade's watch. It is at this time that Naruto finally leaves the village, starting his own ordeals for the future. Grasping the face of the Fourth Hokage, he asks for him to watch over him during his new ordeals. Meanwhile, in the shadowy depths of a cave, the members of Akatsuki make their own pledge that in three years, their master plan will begin.
