[edit] Plot summary

Kakashi is hurt and is being hospitalized by the bridge builder's family. Kakashi makes a statement on how odd the tracker was and how his technique of killing was very different. Kakashi gets up and takes Team 7 to a forest, and he tells them to climb a tree. But, they cannot use their hands. Naruto makes statements on how thats impossible, when Kakashi, on crutches, simply walks up the tree as if it was flat ground. He explains that you have to focus the chakra to the soles of your feet, and get a running start. He also explains that the soles of your feet are one of the hardest places to focus chakra, so technically, being able to focus chakra to your feet will make you able to focus chakra to any part of your body. Naruto immediately runs at a tree, takes one step up it, and falls on his back, because he didn't use enough chakra. Sasuke, however, takes many steps up and then cracks part of the tree with his foot, because he had used too much chakra. Sakura does it with ease. She's disappointed, however, that Sasuke does not acknowledge her chakra control. Already mastering the technique, she takes a break as Naruto and Sasuke are continuously competing to see who can hit the highest spot on the trees. We also find Zabuza in bed, and talking to Haku, the ninja that "murdered" him earlier, in the episode "Kakashi: Sharingan Warrior". This show that the "murder" was actually a ploy to get Zabuza away. Sakura, now on the ground, sees Naruto approching her, and Naruto whispers something in her ear. Sakura whispers something back, and Kakashi looks pleased that Naruto is asking for advice. We also learn that even without the chakra of the Nine-Tailed Fox, Naruto's chakra level is higher than Sasuke's, even higher than Kakashi's own.
