Synopsis

Shikamaru recalled the occasion when Team 7 and Team 10 had united to track down a group of bandits who were plaguing a village nearby, having seized the headman’s granddaughter. With no support forthcoming from Kakashi or Asuma, Shikamaru found himself burdened with leadership of the genin team, tasked with devising a plan to infiltrate the bandits' stronghold and secure the girl's release.
