What to expect from Sasuke Retsuden chapter 8?

In Sasuke Retsuden chapter 8, fans will see Sasuke trying to save Sakura from the debris under which she has been helplessly trapped. Thus, after being absent in the previous chapter, Sasuke will be seen getting into action again, albeit desperate as he cannot trace his wife on the battlefield. Fans can also expect another Sasusaku moment.

But the battle is far from over, and once Sakura has been rescued, the duo, along with Meno, will have to face Zansul, Jiji, and their army of dragons. Furthermore, in Sasuke Retsuden chapter 8, the giant beast that Jiji awakened with the help of the Ultra Particles will most likely cause additional problems.

A quick recap of the Sasuke Retsuden chapter 7 part 2

Sakura was seen in the previous chapter trying to protect the frightened inmates at Tartar while also looking for Zansul. During her search, she encountered Jiji, who appeared relieved to have found her. He then embraced her, and when the kunoichi let down her guard, he stabbed her in the back with a poisoned knife.

It turned out that Jiji was working with Zansul, and the two have duped the Uchiha couple into helping them solve the mystery of the Map of the Heavens. Jiji admitted that Sakura reminded him of his companion Margo, but because the two are not the same person, he was unconcerned about Sakura's life. He then stole the Ultra Particles and resurrected a massive dragon. As the building started to collapse, he left Sakura behind to die.

Fans can't wait for the release of Sasuke Retsuden chapter 8 on March 12, 2023, at 12 am JST to see what it has in store for them.
