Konoha: Reincarnated by Orochimaru in the beginning

Before she finished her words, in the dark night, Karin relied on her perception and started to run away with Sakura. With their full strength burst, the speed of the two of them instantly reached an astonishing level!

There were no unexpected situations, or rather, the two men didn't even have to spend any effort to get rid of the strange woman. It was so smooth that people doubted its authenticity.

Although Sakura wanted to go back and see what the woman was like, Karin was not emotionally stable at the moment. Admittedly, maybe she could get some information by staying there, but with Karin already having a clear warning, the risk and benefit were totally disproportionate.

"Karin, calm down, we've already gotten rid of him!"

"Ah."

"..."

Karin closed her eyes slightly, and when she opened them she looked a little empty, as if she was in a daze. Her feet kept moving, but she changed from running to brisk walking, and said, "Sakura, do you think there's something wrong with me mentally?"

Sakura shook her head. She certainly didn't think so. After spending these days together in Konoha, apart from the initial reservedness, Karin's personality was relatively cheerful and confident when interacting with others. She rarely showed her vulnerable side. That was why Sakura could truly feel the changes in Karin. She must have sensed something big that caused her to become like this!

In the dark night, Karin seemed not to notice Sakura's actions, and said to herself: "Of course, it's okay for you to have such thoughts. Ever since I saw that tall tower, I always felt like something was always watching us. Maybe you can't understand this feeling - anyway, our current situation is very dangerous..."

Karin didn't say anything else after this because she had a bad feeling in her heart. If they couldn't find the source of this malice, then everyone would die here!

Sakura frowned slightly, and using the existing information, she thought for a moment and suddenly said, "Maybe we don't have to be so pessimistic. Karin, didn't you say that there is a place with less malice? Maybe this is not a coincidence, but there is some kind of solution there?"

"Well... I hope you're right."

Not long after the two finished their conversation, they heard the faint sound of a child crying in front of them. They didn't know if it was an illusion or not.

"Sakura?"

"Ah."

Not wanting to get too entangled, Karin and Sakura unanimously chose to take a detour based on the direction of the voice. However, the voice seemed to know what they were thinking. For some reason, even though the two adjusted their directions several times, the voice still appeared right in front of them again.

The two of them looked a little grim, not only because the road was blocked, but also because they could confirm from this that the crying voice at least did not come from an 'ordinary person' in the usual sense.

The ground under their feet was a bit muddy, and it was difficult for the two of them to walk without making slight noises. Seeing that they could not avoid each other, they could not turn back now. The night was still long, and not only would they walk around aimlessly, they also had to remember that there was a woman with a broken leg behind them.

When the two of them were on high alert and arrived at the location where the crying came from, they looked around and found that there was no trace of anyone there, and there was no sound of crying around them.

"Is he hiding?" Sakura muttered to herself, not sure whether this was good news or not. After all, if he had to rely on sneak attacks to deal with them, it at least meant that the man was not very strong.

Karin gritted her teeth and tried to expand her range of perception.

Don't look, don't think, just need to find the destination and where there might be danger, Karin kept giving herself hints.

As her perception range expanded, Karin suddenly discovered that the malice surrounding them had decreased a lot for some reason, and the 'destination' they were planning to go to seemed to be nearby.

Moved? Could it be a 'living thing'?

Suddenly, Karin's expression changed: "Run! There's something chasing us."

"Please save me! Save me! I have elderly people and children at home, I can't die yet, I just injured my leg, I can still live, I can live!!!" A woman's wailing came from behind, with a crying tone in her voice.

Of course, if the woman hadn't moved so quickly and followed Sakura and Karin like a ghost, they might have believed it.

After running for a while, Sakura took a deep breath and said, "This is not a solution. Karin, you hide first. I'll go see if I can get rid of her!"

"do not want!"

A chain extended from Karin's back and instantly wrapped around Sakura's arms, preventing Sakura from moving.

"Sakura, listen to me. The situation is not the worst yet. Your guess is correct. The crying noise from before has been resolved. That 'place' will move, which means it is at least an object that can be moved."

As to whether this was true or not, Karin was not willing to think about it.

"Karin, do you know something..."

Maybe it was because of the woman's voice behind her that Karin messed up her hair with both hands. She couldn't help but start crying as she said, "Sakura, please don't ask. Believe me, there is no way to fight against this kind of thing, because it is not a human being at all!"

Sakura: “!!!”

I don't know how long it took. Although the two had great endurance, as long as they were human, their physical strength had its limits. After a period of full-strength burst, the speed of the two inevitably slowed down.

The main problem was that although they were not far from the target, the 'thing' was always moving.

As the distance shortened, the woman's voice reappeared: "Why didn't you save me? Why did I have to die? Why didn't you die?! Why?! Why...?!"

At this moment, Sakura also seemed to feel the "death intention" that Karin had felt before. The cold air rushed into the lungs from the trachea, and the heart seemed to be tightly grasped by something, making people dizzy and having difficulty breathing. The legs felt like they were filled with lead and moved mechanically.

Seeing the two sides getting closer and closer, Sakura suddenly said, "I'll stay behind to cover you. Karin, this is not the time to be humble. You know, I don't have your perception. I can't find the way."

Karin was a little panicked when she heard this, but she still pretended to be calm and said, "Sakura, hold on a little longer, it's just ahead, we'll be there soon!"

Hearing this, Sakura smiled and said, "Remember you said the same thing a few minutes ago."

"This time it's real, you believe me!"

"Okay, I believe you..."

About half a minute later, Sakura quietly fell behind. Seeing that Karin was a little far away, and her intention would be exposed if she waited any longer, Sakura suddenly turned around and said to the woman: "I'm here to save you! Don't worry, I'm the apprentice of Konoha's most powerful medical ninja!"

"!"

Karin, who was absent-minded, was startled when she heard the voice. She turned around and wanted to pull Sakura back, but found that Sakura had already put the kunai against her neck.

"go!"

"..."

The kunai cut the skin and brought out some blood.

"Go!"

However, the next moment, the lame woman had grabbed Sakura's calf, as if she was grabbing a life-saving straw, and said in a somewhat nervous tone: "Really?! Can you really save me?!"

Accompanied by a cold sense of death, Sakura, who wanted to respond, opened her mouth but found that her expression was too stiff to utter a word. Her body was like a wooden stake nailed to the ground, unable to move at all, and the bitter gourd in her hand fell to the ground at the same time.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Karin swung the chain, tied up Sakura and pulled her back!

"???"

The woman who lost her lifeline was stunned for a moment, then her eyes became bloodshot and she collapsed and yelled, "Didn't you say you would save me?! Why did you run away?! They are all liars! They are all liars!"

Just as the woman was about to go berserk, a red-haired figure suddenly appeared beside her, grabbed her head with his hands, and slammed her to the ground. With such a huge impact force, the ground shattered instantly!

"finally found you!"
