Of course, no effort should be spared for getting even with his rival, so having Sasuke-clone pick his nose or scratch his butt or do other things like that - well, it had to be done, didn't it?
"'Huh' what?" asked Sakura as Naruto made another batch of clones and they transformed themselves into another ersatz Team 7 and left the house.
"Shadow clones normally dispel after one hit," said Naruto. "Except the ones I been making I've used Ring-san to reinforce. It seems to work. If they just scratch themselves on a thorn or step on a tack or something, they stick around still. One of 'em just got hit with some needles of some kind, but couldn't find who hit him."
"They've figured out you're flooding the area with shadow clones and they're trying to figure out if the real one's in there," said Sakura as she considered that. "Because you're using that toy that Sasuke really should have instead of you, they can't immediately tell which one is which."
"Shadow clones are SO cool," said a grinning Naruto.
"Where's Kakashi-sensei anyway?" asked Sakura.
"He's tracking down that Zabuza guy," said Naruto. "Why?"
Sakura and Sasuke exchanged a look. Finally, Sakura went ahead and asked. "And how do you know this?"
"Well, when I started thinking about using shadow clones to disguise myself as everyone - I thought why stop there?" said Naruto. "So I made a shadow clone that turned into a bird. Since I'm reinforcing them with Ring-san, I can tell where my clones are."
"You can't make a shadow clone that flies," Sakura informed Naruto matter of factly.
Sasuke raised an eyebrow at Sakura.
"Eh?" asked Naruto. "I can't?"
"He did," said Sasuke.
"That's impossible," said Sakura, who tried to come to terms with SASUKE telling her something that was blatantly impossible.
"He did it," said Sasuke. "I was watching when Kakashi left. The duplicate of me in the yard turned into a hawk and flew after Kakashi-sensei."
"So I can do it," said Naruto, losing the confused look. "Okay."
