Overall I like it. It's interesting to see other normal ninja react to Sakura. Seems like there are mild inconsistencies as far as Kakashi's view of her and how injured he was but I'm not sure about that. I didn't think he was that concerned about her disposition, at least not to the extent shown recently. It felt more like he was just finding a reason to complain about his team. It kinda threw me that he didn't think she had meaningful friends, I assumed he knew Ino was her friend and maybe he did some follow up investigation of her after he realized how much wasn't in her file. He did enough investigation of Naruto to check out his house with the Hokage His injury seemed like it was twinging into his neck and it was twitchy but i didn't get the impression it was truly debilitating and felt like it was constantly on fire. It was probably just that he mentioned having a doctor appointment when it was his pov but I wasn't sure if he blew it off, because it wasn't fixed and Sakura was so sure it was an easy fix if he did go to the doctor. I guess that was setup for the reveal of just how much she overestimates her expectations. Pretty much the same feeling I got when we finally got a comprehensive physical description of Sakura in chapter 8. When I first read it I wasn't sure if she had made physical changes after graduation or had looked that way from the start of the story. Mostly because of Tenten's reaction. Felt like a detail that was a retroactive change rather than that way from the beginning. Kinda surprised she hasn't done anything with senjitsu or summoning. hope it comes up later. Also looking forward to Tsunade's reaction to her. The cliffhanger in the middle of the conversation/interrogation was evil. Wish it would be updated more frequently but that's my view on all the stories I like. I consider most of these things to be nit picks or not even issues depending on if it is a retroactive change to the story or just the style of writing. Either way I always look forward to this story being updated.

It was à good chappy. As said above, external point of view are good, the clash between expectations and facts flesh the world well imo.

I'm enjoying the little layers of intrigue you put in to the 'real' ninja perspectives, like Kakashi not being sure what Inoichi's real end goal for the convo was; it's well done imo
