- Name: Eight Man Squad
- Leader: Kakashi Hatake
- Members: Yamato, Naruto Uzumaki, Sakura Haruno, Sai, Hinata Hyuga, Shino Aburame, and Kiba Inuzuka
- Affiliation: Konohagakure
- Status: Disbanded
The Eight Man Squad was formed after news of Sasuke Uchiha's victory over Orochimaru reached Konoha. Upon realizing that Sasuke still wouldn't be coming home, Naruto asked the Fifth Hokage to send a squad out to hunt down Sasuke's target, Itachi Uchiha, before Sasuke can get to him and use him as bait to bring Sasuke back to Konoha. Kakashi added that a small but elite squad of shinobi would be needed to take down a member of Akatsuki, and enlisted the members of Team Kurenai for their tracking skills. With this, Team Yamato and Team Kurenai formed a single squad for one purpose: hunt down the Uchiha.
