Synopsis
Sakura received a message from Kakashi, that the Prime Minister had mobilized Redaku's army and was waiting for the arrival of Zansul's "assets". Sakura then realized that the 12 paintings correspond to Jutsu hand signs shinobi use. While working on the roof with Jiji, Sasuke noticed a nearby lake, so Jiji told him, that the lake supposedly formed in the crater of a crashed meteor long ago. Sasuke decided to leave his post after, and ran into Sakura immediately to share the new information they gained. They figured out which hand signs corresponding to the paintings they need to use, by recalling the winning hand in the Star Lines card game. They then decided to head out together after lights-out. After sharing a romantic moment by the lake, Sakura performed the jutsu to unveil the sunken Ultra Particles, igniting a beam across the sky. Just as she retrieved the sealed particles, the two were alerted by an explosion back at the observatory, which released a multitude of flying dragon beasts. While Sakura headed back to the observatory, Sasuke began trailing the flying beasts, but Zansul stepped in front of him, from atop a beast. Zansul revealed, that he was using the prisoners for his own scheme to dig up fossils and find the Ultra Particles. Zansul also denied using the Reanimation Jutsu and affirmed that he knew about Kakashi's presence at Prince Nanara's estate. After using his Sharingan, Sasuke deduced that Zansul did not have enough chakra to reanimate and control the beasts. Many more species of dragon beasts emerged from below the observatory and started to devour the inmates. Sakura punched a hole in the walls to allow the inmates to escape. While searching the observatory for Zansul and saving inmates, Sakura was stabbed by Jiji with a poisoned kunai. Afterwards, Jiji took the Ultra Particles, which are needed for more complex Reanimations to be done all at once, since he was the one reanimating the dragon beasts for Zansul one-by-one. The entire observatory grounds and the land around it began to crumble as Jiji used the particles to reanimate humongous dragon beasts. The poison paralyzed Sakura, and she was incapable to avoid the falling rubble.
