Summary

Having lived through the tailed beast extraction, Killer B slips under the Infinite Tsukuyomi. Within the dream, he teams with Yugito Nii and their chibi-sized beasts Matatabi and Gyuki to sneak into Sunagakure and free Gaara alongside Shukaku. A colossal version of the puppet Karasu blocks the cell, but Gyuki restrains it while B breaks Gaara out, handing over the details of a mission only jinchuriki can carry out through a fist-bump. Once Yugito recovers Gaara's sand gourd, the two Kumo ninja peel off to gather the rest, and B and Gaara set course for Konohagakure, where Naruto and Kurama sit locked inside the mouth of Tsunade's likeness on the Hokage Rock.

Key Events

Naruto raises a racket until ramen shows up, giving away why he was so loud. The guards drop before he can eat, and B shatters the cell with a Lariat in his Version 1 cloak. A fail-safe drags them into the statue and underground, held by Tsunade, Shizune, and an Anbu unit. Rather than turn three jinchuriki loose on the village, Tsunade settles it with a dice roll; Gaara has Shukaku mimic the dice to fix the outcome, but the transformation can't hold under her hard shaking. Gyuki screens their getaway with a cloud of ink dust. Tsunade sends Yamato, Yugao Uzuki, and Anbu after them toward Takigakure. The team is cornered by the Konoha squad, fights them off, then reaches the outskirts of Takigakure only to meet Itachi Uchiha, Sasori, and Deidara of Akatsuki as a fresh battle erupts.
