Under the Starry Sky

is episode 74 of the Naruto: Shippūden anime.

Synopsis
The second stage of Naruto Uzumaki's training continued, while Tsunade sent out the Nijū Shōtai, twenty teams composed of four ninja each, to deal with and exterminate the Akatsuki members in the Land of Fire. Shikamaru Nara left with Asuma Sarutobi, Izumo Kamizuki and Kotetsu Hagane, whereas Ino Yamanaka and Chōji Akimichi left with Raidō Namiashi and Aoba Yamashiro. That night, Sakura Haruno wept over her photo of Team 7, and Naruto, after witnessing a shooting star, managed to clear the second stage of his training, but subsequently collapsed from hunger and exhaustion almost immediately afterwards.
