"Neither of us will be," Angelmaru replied.

"But I thought a merging seal would do that," Sakura asked.

"It is and it already happened," Angelmaru said, "My body was destroyed and I am part of your mind. You can hear my thoughts and I yours. To join with someone, some body must be sacrificed. I did that with mine to complete it. I can never be removed from you. We are one, but my voice and will are not able to affect you, so you are and will be in complete control."

"Then why did you say for me to ask you to grow people?" Sakura asked.

"So you would get a feeling for how to grow people," Angelmaru said, "Now my thoughts are hazy. I must rest."

"All right," Sakura said. She opened her eyes and told Jiraiya the news.
