Chapter 705 brings Sarada face to face with the father who fails to know her, unpacks Sasuke's secret mission against a Kaguya-linked threat, and ends with a new Uchiha enemy and his clones striking at Naruto and Sarada.
When Sasuke moves to strike, Sarada stops him by naming him as her father, hurt that he shows no sign of knowing her. Naruto and Chōchō turn up moments later, Chōchō scolding her friend for wandering off alone. Sasuke demands to know why Naruto dragged youngsters along, and Sarada admits the girls trailed him to reach this spot. Chōchō openly muses over whether this man might be her own father, while Sarada instead confronts Sasuke about whether Sakura truly gave birth to her. Far away, Shizune relays to Sakura what her daughter has discovered and what she means to do. Frustrated by Sasuke's blank responses and his refusal to say anything about himself, Sarada storms out.
Chōchō then admits the man really is Sarada's father. Naruto's thoughts drift to a Kage gathering where Sasuke had spoken of a fresh danger tied to Kaguya and the White Zetsu Army, requesting freedom to look into it quietly. As Naruto tries to console Sarada and Sakura hurries toward them, Shin's father declares Akatsuki reborn to Shin and a row of identical copies, exposing the many Sharingan set into his scalp and left arm. His summoned creature warps him straight to Naruto's position. Chōchō half-jokingly tells Sasuke to bond with his daughter over food just as he senses the attackers closing in. Shin and his father lash out at Sarada and Naruto, who deflects the blow, and when the elder charges, Sasuke enters the fight.
Sarada confronts Sasuke and questions whether Sakura is her real mother, only to be met with cold indifference. Naruto recalls Sasuke's private report to the Kage about an emerging enemy connected to Kaguya and the White Zetsu Army. Shin's father announces the revival of Akatsuki and reveals a body studded with Sharingan.
Using his creature to teleport, Shin's father assaults Naruto and Sarada, prompting Sasuke to join the defence as Sakura races to the scene.

Naruto vs Luffy with the twist nobody asked for: Luffy tickled Hinata on date night, and she kind of liked it. We break down the whole fight and commit to a winner....

Naruto built the transformation jutsu himself, and the Hidden Leaf has been quietly not talking about it ever since. The story behind our 90s R&B record about the Naruko question everybody dodges....
