[Rock Lee is virtually stunned as Sakura springs into action. He's always held her in high esteem, but moments like these help him to reconfirm that she lives up to every word of flattery he has for her. Striking powerfully and precisely... She really has grown a lot. And, seeing the way her pink hair billows, he knows she's just as beautiful as she's always been. Despite his condition, his cheeks flush slightly.

I... I trust you, Sakura-san! [He finds himself thinking of the Forest of Death more than ever. How Sakura said that he helped her to become stronger. As much as he wanted to push himself and protect her, he also realized that his faith in Sakura was absolute. So he had to trust in her and her skill. And he raises a shaky thumbs up into the air.]
