voice post :: it always comes back to Sasuke.

Sensei, you told me you wanted to protect Sasuke.
Well, now he's here--again--and he's already started seeking out Madara for answers. It was, I guess, unavoidable. But I'll need your help if we're going to protect him from Madara.
I need to keep tabs on Sasuke's whereabouts. If you have some of your special kunai with tags attached, or if you can create some more tags, I'd like to give one to Sasuke to use in case of emergency. I'm not sure what to say to him yet, so, uh, if you have an idea, I'm willing to listen. He's a bit like I was, in that he has too much pride in his abilities and is too skeptical to take a gift like that easily, and unexpectedly. But this way, if he ever gets into a scrape and uses it, you'll know where he is right away.
Unless there is a good way to assign my own chakra to the tag and have the teleportation jutsu work for me, instead? Then we can save you the trouble. [a slight chuckle] I'd hate for Sasuke to steal you away from Naruto.
