As the five Kage arrive to the battlefield, they note that this is no battle to be lost. Meanwhile, Naruto and Sasuke clash against Obito. As Sakura continues to heal Shikamaru, his treatment progresses little but Sakura promises not to let him die. Just then, Naruto's Version 1 cloak encases Shikamaru – which Ino notes was being done subconsciously as an extension of Naruto's will and Shikamaru regains some strength. Tsunade arrives and completely heals Shikamaru while praising Sakura that she has done well.
