Sasuke Retsuden: The Ring

Battling back to the institute with Meno's aid against flying dinosaurs, Sasuke spots the emerging Titan and realizes Jiji is Zansuru's accomplice, the only other soul who knew he had help. He sends Meno to evacuate the prisoners and races to reach Sakura, growing anxious when he cannot sense her chakra. Sakura, pinned and unable to mold chakra because of the poison, wakes to find Sasuke tending her wound; she had prepared a serum against it in advance. Zansuru, meanwhile, takes the polar particles from Jiji and prepares to slaughter the inmates before helping the prime minister crush Nanara's rebellion.

Meno turns on the beast attacking Ganno, tipping Zansuru off that Sasuke has seized control of it. Sasuke smashes the flying dinosaurs together with Chidori Senbon while Sakura shatters the ground around them. Zansuru narrowly escapes Meno atop a fleeing beast, and word arrives that King Nanara has imprisoned the prime minister, though Zansuru fights on. Sasuke draws the Titan out onto the lake, uses Amenotejikara to swap places and close on Zansuru, and when the director orders his mount to flee it drops him to his death instead, since Sasuke's takeover left his commands unheeded. Sasuke recovers the polar particles.

Jiji finally confesses he was a Suna missing-nin who revived the beasts in exchange for the corpse of his lost love Margo, only to learn from Sasuke that she is alive and working with King Nanara. Weeping with relief, he releases the reincarnation technique, crumbling every beast to dust, and shields Sakura from a dying creature's bite. Sasuke bids Meno farewell. Later, a recovered Naruto asks after Redaku, now ruled by King Nanara, while Ino notices Sakura's ring, which had helped Sasuke find her in the rubble. Nanara plans to rebuild the institute with Margo and Jiji, and though Sasuke and Sakura are once more apart on mission, neither is troubled.
