Naruto Shadow King Ch 133 : Rescue Karin
🕑 Added 2024-11-08 08:21:42 +0000 UTCThe plan had to be modified to keep up with the changes of the current situation, though Shika plan was almost flawless, he didn't anticipated that Danzo will kidnap Karin.
Karin was no one important to him, they just meet few months ago, but that can be said to literally anyone in this world. He haven't spend much time with her either, but still he didn't wanted the girl to suffer anymore if he can help it.
In the cannon, he only barely known her story but after coming here, after learning the truth from her own mouth, Shika realized that her story was even worst then he could think.
Maybe it was pity that drove him or he just geniunely wanted to help the girl, he didn't let her go back to that demonic village which kill her mother and would most likely would have done the same to her.
When he did that, he took the responsibility to look after her at least until she is big enough. Now there was no way that he would just leave behind her just liket his.
So, the plan was delayed slightly. All over the root base, Shika's clone started to search for Karin until one clone ended up finding her true location.
"We got her, Sasuke we are going to start the offense now. What are you gonna do." Shika stopped as he got the information from his clone and then asked Sasuke.
"Danzo... he is mine." Sasuke said with a calm voice, but there was barely visible anger and hatred lingering into his tone.
Shika again was uncomfortable seeing how different Sasuke was acting, definately the way he should have acted but why so suddenly ?
He wanted to asked, wanted to know, part curiosity and part wariness but he hold himself back. Right now wasn't the time. At least he could tell that Sasuke was on his side, there was no way with that face that this guy was playing double agent.
"Fine, then lets go. Time to root this darkness out and tell him whose domain he dwells in. " Shika smile a little, punching that bastard was the only thing running inside his head right now.

"What is going on ? why there is no sign of those on the outer patrol ?". One of the Root shinobi asked when they got there for the change of shift. Another good reason for building the root base underground was that this place had many link routes which were hard to navigate until one have previously map it out.
This was another reason why Shika needed to get inside the root base first, while he was inside his clones were mapping out the entire area.
And now that Shika had a idea of the entire Root base and even know where Karin was. It was time act.
While he himself with Sasuke went directly towards Danzo's office, the rest of the Root members were left to his clones and Shikigami's.
"No reply yet, there is something wrong. Go and report quickly."
The root member was about to rush but then he found himself not being able to move at all. Like something was keeping him planted on his place.
"Hey, why you are not goi...ahahahaaaaaa." other root shinobi was saying but in between he started to shout, and just in few seconds those loud shouts were also gone.
Only the sound of chirping and small animals in a group eating echoed.
"Rabbits...run... there are rabbits here."
"Huh ?"
"They are eating him..."
"What !"
Someone tried to shout but his end was not much different then from the man earlier.
From the shadow's came out many clones of Shika. Root shinobi were veiling in pain when suddenly all there moments were restricted all of the sudden as shadow started to cover the ground and creatures started to attack them.
They were defenceless, and couldn't do anything. And when there weren't much any shikigami eating them alive or charging at them, they kept on dying due to clone of Shika coming of their Shadow and slithering their throats.
This Shika was different and his clone was different. With the power of Rinnegan, his overall power level have improve with a huge jump.
No wonder how powerful Sasuke was getting just becuase he got better Sharingan. Its not just the hax which Sharingan and its version give, but there is also better management of chakra, more chakra and powerful chakra plus everything which a doujutsu provide.
Earlier it would have been hard for Shika to capture a Jonin or an Elite Jonin in his shadow but now... even his clone was able to capture them in their shadow.
Though part of the reason was that he sneak attack them and didn't give them time to break free in the fist place.
Both Shika's clones and Shikigami's were destroying the reverse root members, in times like this that Shika realized just how overpowered his abilities could be if only he use them right.
The ability to hide in once's shadow and being able to do Binding Vow alone was enough to pull of what he was doing here.
Hiding in shadow, he realized that hardly anyone can find him, maybe this wouldn't be the case in Jujutsu Kaisen world as people their could sense his Curse energy but here. No one can find him.
This especially is the case because his body use curse energy when anything related to Ten Shadow or Jujutsu and uses Chakra when he use Ninjutsu.
As for binding vow, those things come really handy when he was making all this clones. For someone like Naruto making this many clone might be nothing but this was almost an year worth of chakra for him.
With few well place binding vows, he was able to make more clones and avoid the back lash of when those clone pop as their memories won't come to him. There are downsides like he won't get their memories or chakra, and majority of the clones power are block in exchange of enhancement in their shadow technique and assassination technique.
Aka... Their is a lot of potential which he has yet to explore...
However, not all the clones were taking out the root members or created for just killing. Some had even more important job to do, they moved stealthily, keeping low to avoid any attention. Goal was clear: find and rescue Karin. After minutes of silent maneuvering, he finally spotted her—lying unconscious, bound by chakra-suppressing restraints.
The clone quickly dispelled the bindings, lifting Karin into a seated position. “Karin,” he whispered, gently shaking her shoulder. Slowly, she stirred, blinking her eyes open as she took in her surroundings, still groggy from whatever method the Root had used to keep her subdued.
“Shika?” she murmured, confused but clearly relieved to see him.
“It’s just a clone,” he explained softly, helping her to her feet. “The real me and Sasuke are making our way to Danzo right now. Come on we are moving out of here, this place.... no this village now is dangerous to stay?”
Karin nodded, Though it felt like she wasn't yet fully awake, that bastard Danzo drugged her ? that was going inside the clone's mind but he didn't had the luxury to find that out now. So he just pick her up, pretty much princess carrying her, and make a bee line out of there with Karin in his hands.
Meanwhile, in a different corridor, the real Shika moved swiftly with Sasuke by his side. They navigated through the maze-like passageways, if not for his earlier caution to map the entire place, they would have been no better than a certain moss head swordsman by now.
“Almost there,” Shika muttered to Sasuke, his voice low but focused.
"Be caution from here on, surely the guards he will have with him would be the best men among his root. Stay vigilant." Shika reminded him.
