SasoSaku

Kazakage Rescue Arc
Before meeting in person for the first time, Sakura ha come in contact with Sasori's skills through Kankuro, who had been poisoned by him. Sakura then proceeds to study the poisons and creates the antidote that would save his life. This antidote would later prove to be useful in the battle against him. Sasori and Sakura first meet during the Kazekage Rescue Arc in Part II, where Sakura and Sasori's grandmother, Chiyo, have to team up to battle him.

Throughout the battle, Sasori finds himself impressed with Sakura's abilities, both as a fighter and a poison specialist. Sakura's attitude through the battle is anger, at Sasori's cruelty and lack of humanity but she doesn't treat him like an ordinary enemy. As Sasori is also Chiyo's grandson, at some point she tries to reason with him and she gets upset after learning about his loneliness through childhood and how he ended up. She wishes everything would have turned out better for them both. After being defeated, Sasori says that he wouldn't have cared if his grandmother had died, that she was just another human life he would have taken. Enraged, Sakura punches him in the face and asks him what he thinks human life and blood ties are, and why he can't think of another way.

Later, he rewards Sakura for defeating him by telling her of a spy he has working for Orochimaru, dying just as he tells her about their planned rendezvous.
