There is the open sky, and puppets enough to make a person feel choked (or nauseous). The mad red-haired puppet master, standing there amidst what he called art; that's a sight that Sakura is intimately familiar with. She has seen it often enough in her nightmares.

Her heart pounds, but it isn't fear that courses through her veins with that rhythm. It is battle. The thrill of the fight sings in her, because she is not afraid. She has fought this man before and survived.
She knows where he hides his tricks.
Sakura takes a deep breath and then turns her head to Neji, but does not let Sasori out of her sight.]
He specializes in puppet ninjutsu, but he also has extensive knowledge of highly deadly poisons. They coat all of his weapons, and some puppets can produce clouds of inhaleable poison.
[She extends her hand so that the back faces Sasori and her palm faces Neji, revealing what she holds only to her comrade. There are three syringes filled with amber liquid there.]
I've made an antidote to the poison he used when I fought him last, but he knows that I have it. He might have changed his formula.

His weakness is the container in his chest. It contains the part of him that can control chakra.
