Naruto: What Kind of Starter Pack is 13 Years Late?

Chapter 190: Bringing Karin to Konoha



There were potholes everywhere, and raging flames were still burning, clearly, the impact just now wouldn't dissipate so easily.

And amidst this heap of ruins, Kakashi quickly saw a figure in the distance.

"Is that the person we're looking for?"

Kakashi asked in confusion, and Takemi nodded.

"Yes, it's her. During the battle, I noticed her Chakra was unusual, giving me a feeling very similar to Naruto."

"Similar to Naruto? And her hair color…"

Kakashi pondered for a moment, and he seemed to understand the identity of this girl.

"Of the Uzumaki clan?"

Actually, encountering descendants of the Uzumaki clan in the Ninja World wasn't particularly rare.

After the fall of the Land of Whirlpools and the destruction of Uzushiogakure, the descendants of the Uzumaki clan scattered throughout the Ninja World.

Although they once had an alliance to protect each other, Konoha really couldn't manage it at the time. They were being beaten themselves, so how could they have the time?

Moreover, with the destruction of the village and the passage of time, such an alliance had long been forgotten by most people.

In the eyes of many Konoha Ninja, the Uzumaki clan were just ordinary people, especially since Konoha also had its own 'legitimate' Uzumaki clan.

From the earliest Uzumaki Mito, to Minato's wife, Uzumaki Kushina, and even the current Naruto, all possess the bloodline of the Uzumaki clan.

"Do you think she's special?"

Kakashi thought for a moment, and didn't spoil the mood too much, but asked.

"Yes, a little."

Takemi nodded.

"In terms of Chakra, she's somewhat similar to Naruto, and she should be from Kusagakure. Bringing her back would be easier to explain, right?"

"Didn't you just say you didn't know anything about Kusagakure?"

"…"

"Speak!"

"Since it's come to this, let's capture her first."

After a brief exchange, the two immediately accelerated towards Karin, and Karin, who was running ahead, had already noticed the movement behind her.

Having found an opportunity, she naturally couldn't stay in Kusagakure. No matter where she went, she had to leave first.

She was cautious all the way, but she didn't expect to be caught up now, and the person chasing her…

"The owner of that Chakra!"

Even though the Chakra had changed a lot, she felt she couldn't be mistaken, which made her feel doomed.

Especially seeing the two people behind her accelerate, she could only sadly slow down.

She couldn't escape, she simply couldn't escape!

"Yo, I thought you were going to keep running."

Soon, a clear yet somewhat lazy voice came from behind.

"This is good too, saves us trouble."

Karin trembled, turning her head, only to see two white-haired figures already walking towards her.

"What's your name?"

The older white-haired man asked curiously, and Karin immediately stammered.

"I... I'm Karin…"

"Don't be so scared, we are Konoha Ninja."

Kakashi felt inexplicably puzzled seeing this little girl so frightened.

"You're a Ninja from Kusagakure, aren't you? Konoha and Kusagakure have a good relationship…"

"I'm not! I'm not!"

Karin reacted strongly. She also knew that Konoha and Kusagakure had a good relationship.

But that would be deadly!

If they sent her back, wouldn't she be finished?

"…"

Looking at Karin like that, Kakashi couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

Is this a rogue Ninja?

Having encountered the Akatsuki so many times, especially with Obito's matter, he really had no good feelings for rogue Ninja.

"Don't… don't kill me!"

However, at that moment, Karin seemed to sense something. She immediately looked at Kakashi in terror, and instantly squatted down, hugging her small head with both hands.

"Such strong sensory ability."

Takemi couldn't help but murmur from the side. He probably knew the reason for Karin's terror.

After all, she gave a wrong answer, and he also knew Karin's abilities.

"Kagura Mind's Eye?"

This seemed to be one of the strongest sensory abilities in the Ninja World.

This ability could not only detect enemies tens of kilometers away but also lock onto them via Chakra.

Besides that…

"This ability also seems to be able to see through people's hearts by sensing Chakra…"

Takemi remembered that Karin, relying on Kagura Mind's Eye, saw Naruto's warm and caring nature at their first meeting.

"Kakashi-sensei, calm down a bit, look at her arm."

Thinking of this, Takemi reminded Kakashi, and Kakashi also tilted his head to look at Karin's arm.

"Are those… bite marks? Needle marks?"

"I'm afraid she has some special abilities. The people of Kusagakure treated her harshly."

"So that's how it is…"

Karin squatted on the ground, hugging her head with both hands, her sleeves naturally falling down, revealing her arm.

Kakashi naturally saw it clearly, and he seemed to understand why this girl was so resistant to going back.

"Very strong sensory ability, and also some unknown special abilities." Takemi stroked his chin and spoke directly.

"Also, she should know about Kusagakure, so bringing her back will make it easier to explain, right?"

As he spoke, Takemi looked at Karin, who was still scared to death, and showed a charming smile.

"Don't be afraid, we are all good people."

"…"

With the way you are, how are you good people?

"We basically understand your situation. Don't worry, we won't do anything to you, but could you tell us about your situation and what happened with Kusagakure ?"

"My… my blood has healing abilities… my mother died at their hands, so… Kusagakure … was destroyed, and I also took this opportunity…"

"Stop. Didn't you say you weren't from Kusagakure? Also, what exactly happened to Kusagakure? Be more specific."

"I was passing by Kusagakure and saw you fighting a few enemies. Your battle affected…"

"Stop. Think carefully before speaking."

"It was your enemies who destroyed Kusagakure! They had been planning to attack Kusagakure for a long time, and you saved Kusagakure."

"Very good, you were passing by Kusagakure and happened to see the enemies attacking Kusagakure, and I intervened to stop them."

Takemi looked at the trembling Karin and nodded in satisfaction. This was the correct answer.

"That's enough of you!"

But Kakashi, who was beside him, had completely lost his composure. He looked at Takemi with dead fish eyes.

"How can you do this? Where did you learn this from?!"

"But, that's the truth."

Takemi looked at Kakashi in confusion, then at Karin.

"Right, Karin?"

"Yes, that's right!"

Karin immediately nodded. She could feel that this most terrifying person had no ill will towards her at all.

Moreover, his Chakra gave her a special feeling. It was an indescribable sense of closeness, combined with an undeniable pressure.

"Forget it, let's go."

Kakashi sighed helplessly.

He scratched his head and said, "Anyway, when we get back, we'll explain it however we explain it. But super strong sensory ability and healing ability might be of some help."

Several days later, Takemi and his group finally returned to Konoha.

"Kakashi-sensei, I'll leave the rest to you. I won't be involved."

Takemi chose to take his leave immediately. He didn't want to get involved in these matters.

"Hey, you're a Jonin now!"

Kakashi stared at Takemi, somewhat speechless.

"You're the one who brought her back, you should at least explain yourself!"

"I think Hokage-sama probably doesn't want to see me…"

"…You go back."

Takemi's reason left Kakashi unable to refute, and he finally nodded.

Takemi's report would have to wait until Hokage-sama felt better before being submitted.

With a flash, Takemi returned to his home. He immediately set up a barrier and created a Shadow Clone, then eagerly summoned the system.

"Use the Rinnegan's Yin Release power!"

He had waited so long, and now he could finally take a good look at this reward.

And as that immense Yin Release power spread throughout his body, he clearly felt his eyes begin to swell.

Violent Chakra continuously surged into his eyes, spreading throughout his entire body.

The feeling of boiling blood suddenly reappeared, and this time it seemed even more intense.

"This feeling…"

Takemi was somewhat incredulous. This feeling was very similar to when his skin and hair had turned white. He knew that this upgrade would probably not be small.

But very quickly, a thought suddenly popped into his head.

"Oh no, this upgrade, I won't grow a horn, will I?"
