Orochimaru's Secret House, Underground Passage.
"Karin, the enemy's position?"
"Directly above, about 200 meters in the air."
"Through the fine sensing of long-range chakra, I'm afraid it's Sasori sama's perception technique!"
"Is that so, Sasori of the Red Sand … He's really a first-class puppeteer, let's go this way."
Orochimaru and his team were running in the underground passage. They had to abandon the subordinates and a large number of experimental materials. Although it was a pity, Kabuto was enough to have subordinates, and the most important one was Sasuke. As for the experimental materials, in terms of ability, taking Karin was the right choice.
Karin was the orphan of the Uzumaki Clan. After the destruction of Uzumaki Village by the ninjas of many countries, the Uzumaki Clan was basically exterminated. The remaining clansmen scattered all over the ninja world and hid themselves. After all, whether it's the Uzumaki Clan's powerful Kekkei Genkai or the rich and powerful sealing techniques mastered by the clan, an ordinary man is innocent. It was precisely because the Uzumaki Clan monopolized the treasure that they attracted the attention of various forces in the ninja world. They didn't hesitate to join forces to plunder it. The Uzumaki Clan resisted, but in the end, because they were outnumbered, they ended up in a miserable state.
However, Konoha, as an allied ninja village, also stood aside for some reason, but this is also a digression, let's return to the main topic.
Karin, as the orphan of the Uzumaki Clan, has been hiding her ability since childhood. In Konoha's Chunin Exam, as a Genin of Kusagakure, she participated in the Chunin Exam. Unfortunately, Orochimaru pretended to be a candidate and entered the Forest of Death to find Sasuke. He killed Karin's companions and then peeled off the skin of Kusagakure's face as a disguise. It was precisely because of this that Orochimaru accidentally discovered Karin, who was an unknown Kusagakure Genin. He suspected that she was the orphan of the legendary Uzumaki Clan. However, at that time, Orochimaru had other things to do. Although the orphan of the Uzumaki Clan was an excellent experimental material, in Orochimaru's heart, she was far less important than Uchiha Sasuke. In this way, Orochimaru temporarily let go of Karin and went to the Forest of Death to find Uchiha Sasuke. However, he didn't let go of Karin, who was an important experimental material, so he sent a Shadow Clone to look after her, and then encountered Kirito, who entered the Forest of Death.
Kirito was originally looking for Ashina. He was thinking about how to find Ashina's location more efficiently. After finding Karin, the first thing he thought of was to use her ability. As for Orochimaru's Shadow Clone, Kirito shot it. At such a close range, coupled with the fact that the Shadow Clone only had 10% of Orochimaru's strength, and the sudden attack was launched when Orochimaru was unprepared. The Shadow Clone left by Orochimaru was instantly killed by Kirito.
Later, Kirito quickly found Ashina with the help of Karin and rescued him safely. Kirito also interceded in front of Konoha's Anbu, allowing Karin to withdraw from the Chunin Exam and leave Konoha safely.
Although in the end, on the way back to Kusagakure alone after leaving Konoha, she was unfortunately targeted by Orochimaru and captured back to Otogakure. However, because Kirito saved her when she was in danger, Karin also remembered Kirito's kindness in her heart.
Now, although under the coercion of Orochimaru, Karin had no choice but to obey his orders, but the smart Karin also knew that although she had lost her freedom under Orochimaru's hands, she had to admit that under Orochimaru's command, she didn't have to be on tenterhooks and try to hide her abilities for fear of being targeted by outsiders.
For the sake of self-protection, Karin had to help Orochimaru with all her strength at this time.
"Orochimaru-sama, I can use my Jutsu to cover our Chakra for a short time and deceive the enemy's perception Jutsu.
However, the number of targets is a bit too many, so it can't last more than one minute. During this time, we must get out of the enemy's perception range. "Karin said in a deep voice.
"Very good, hehe ~ What an excellent ability!" Orochimaru smirked.
He couldn't help but recall that at the beginning, because Karin tried to hide her ability for a long time and limited her Kekkei Genkai power, many of her abilities were not developed. However, under Orochimaru's unstinting training, Karin's special ability as an Uzumaki was gradually developed.
Orochimaru was also quite satisfied with Karin's growth.
"…" Sasuke, who was silently following the escape, looked at Karin with a slightly surprised gaze. His eyes flashed slightly, and he thought to himself, "Karin … She does have a very good ability. If there's a chance, I can try to contact her, and use a little means, she will definitely be useful to me!"
"Huh?!"
However, Karin, who was forming hand seals with one hand and performing the secret technique "Kagura Mind's Eye", suddenly felt her heart jump, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. "This Chakra … It's him!"
Orochimaru was puzzled. "What's the matter, Karin … Huh?!"
However, just when Orochimaru felt strange about Karin's reaction, suddenly, an extremely familiar Chakra from not far away pulled all his attention.
His running footsteps came to a halt.
"What's the matter?
Orochimaru-sama? "Kabuto asked strangely.
Orochimaru stared at the dark passage in front of him, and a hint of thought-provoking expression appeared between his eyebrows, and his voice was slightly hoarse. "Hehe, what a nostalgic feeling …"
Karin was startled at first, but she quickly hid the change in her expression and continued to use her perception. Then, her eyes widened, and she pointed to a place right in front of them. She exclaimed, "In front … there's something approaching at a fast speed!
It's quite a huge Chakra! "
"Akatsuki's people are on the ground … Then, who is in front of us?" Kabuto frowned, "And … huge Chakra specifically refers to …?"
As the target continued to approach, Karin's perception became clearer and clearer, and her face slightly changed, and looked at Orochimaru with a little panic, and said in a deep voice, "This … the person who is coming, his Chakra is at the same level as Orochimaru-sama's in perfect condition …"
