After their fight, Pakura advised Maki to be strong so she can protect her loved ones and the village. Meanwhile, in a meeting of Sand seniors they stress about a truce with Kirigakure despite it is against in their favour and suggests Pakura to solve the issue. However, Suna mourns the death of Pakura and vows to destroy Iwagakure. In a present time, the Third Division struggles to fight the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist as well as Gari and Pakura. Monga manages to incapacitate Gari, but is killed by Pakura, who confronts Maki and blames Sunagakure for turning her into a sacrifice during a doubtful truce with Kirigakure. Ruka intervenes their argument that Kiri had no longer its bloody and vicious reputation under the new leadership of the Fifth Mizukage. Pakura continues her attack and Maki tells to Pakura that Allied Shinobi Forces will improve its relations and might change the future then she begs to remain a hero. Still sceptic, Pakura attempts to attack but she was stopped by Omoi and Zaji. In their successful coordinated attack, they manage to incapacitate Pakura but Gari arrives. Gari targets Maki but Pakura corners Gari with her flaming orbs and tells Maki to flee. After fleeing, Gari and Pakura have their personalities erased once more. As the group successfully retreat to the forest, Maki tends to be alone and prays.
