Naruto: I'm Not Afraid of Death

Are you sure this is the Hokage? I finally survived. Can anyone tell me why the tailed beast has disappeared before Akatsuki appears? Can anyone tell me why Gaara likes to eat lollipops. Can anyone tell me why Orochimaru doesn't know who Sasuke is. Can anyone tell me why the man Sasuke wanted to kill was not Itachi. I want to die. This novel and its characters are purely fictitious.
