Assuming you mean vascular plants the transportation system here are the vascular tissues. The xylem moves water from the roots to the leaves. The phloem moves sugars, carbohydrates, from the leaves to everywhere in the plant needing these sugars.

What do plants take from the soil?

Plants take nutrients and water from the soil. Along with anchoring and storage, intake of food from the soil is a job responsibility of plant roots. The feeder roots get their water from the moisture that's found in the air and water pore spaces in soil. Nutrients such as nitrogen need to be in soluble form. Otherwise, for example, nitrogen may be present, but can't be taken in by plant roots. The water and nutrients travel up from the roots to the shoots. There, they play their role in the photosynthetic interaction with sunlight, for the production of energizing starches and sugars to support plant activities.

Would water travel faster through a plant with or without leaves?

if you are talking about a plant that used to have leaves and lost them, than the now leafless plant loses (or has water travel faster through it) than with leaves, if you are talking about plants that are always leafless (cacti) it isn't faster than leaf plant because they store their water better so it moves very slowly in cacti.
