It isn't really their style- not to go running right back if they'd failed at something. But after Shibusen's successful run on Hachi's lab and with another successful execution of Chidori- okay so Sasuke might not be feeling unstoppable but Naruto sure as hell did. Their resonance seems to come more easily than ever before and no small amount of it is owed to confidence. That this bond Naruto had worked so hard to protect and the one Sasuke had struggled so long to define- that it really is strong. That they can trust it the way they trust each other.

When the last quilled beast finally hits the ground the pair is still standing. A little tired and scratched up- but uninjured. Successful. They don't find any survivors out in the fields, despite the time they spend looking and they hesitate only when their attention is caught by the setting sun, glinting off of a few pieces of jewelry stuck in the mud. Things that belonged to the victims.

Sasuke and Naruto bury the watch and necklaces in silence before heading back to Death City.
