Formation! The Sasuke Retrieval Squad!
In this episode of Naruto season 3, the story continues from the previous episode where Team 7, along with other ninjas were ordered by Tsunade to retrieve Sasuke who has been taken by Orochimaru. The Sasuke Retrieval Squad is formed with Naruto, Shikamaru, Kiba, Neji, and Choji. The group is joined by Rock Lee, who had previously been injured and was unable to participate in the mission.
The episode begins with a reunion of the Retrieval Squad at the training ground, where they are briefed by Kakashi, who tells the team about the obstacles they will face on their mission. He also gives them information about the Sound Four, the powerful group of Orochimaru's henchmen who are guarding Sasuke.
The team sets off on their mission, and after a while, they encounter the Sound Four, who engage them in a battle. The Sound Four quickly shows their power by taking out their opponents with little effort, leaving only Shikamaru to fight against one of them, Tayuya.
While Shikamaru is fighting Tayuya, the rest of the team are struggling against the Sound Four. Naruto, in particular, is having a difficult time fighting against Kimimaro, one of Orochimaru's elite bodyguards.
As the battles continue, the Retrieval Squad is slowly pushed back, and it seems that the mission will be a failure. However, just when things seem to be at their darkest, a new challenger appears, Gaara, the Kazekage of the Hidden Sand Village.
Gaara arrives on the scene and quickly shows off his immense power, effortlessly defeating Kimimaro and driving off the rest of the Sound Four. With the Sound Four defeated, the Retrieval Squad continues on their mission to retrieve Sasuke.
The episode ends with the team continuing their journey, and it's clear that the presence of Gaara has boosted their morale, and they are more determined than ever to succeed in their mission.
In conclusion, Formation! The Sasuke Retrieval Squad is an action-packed episode that showcases the determination and courage of the main characters. With the introduction of Gaara, the stakes have been raised, and it's clear that the Retrieval Squad will face even tougher challenges in the episodes to come.
