In Naruto, you can become a god through gacha pulls.

Haku and Kisame got along the best. Kisame told Haku about Zabuza's past, and Haku sat quietly listening, occasionally chiming in with excited comments.

Yoriichi used the mist of Ryuchi Cave to temporarily seal off the traces of this cave, as he still had considerable faith in the concealment ability of the mist taught by the White Snake Sage.

The rain poured down all night, and Yoriichi remained vigilant about his surroundings, but ultimately no potential dangers came his way.

"The magic of Ryuchi Cave is truly amazing..." Yoriichi praised without reservation.

After the rain stopped, the group set off again on their way to Konoha Village.

Yoriichi lay on the bird's back, meditating with his eyes slightly closed, while Deidara focused on controlling the Nendoroid Asuka, and Hozuki Suigetsu, Kisame Hoshigaki, and Haku chatted and laughed.

The team now includes Deidara, who has high burst damage and high speed; Haku, who has a bloodline limit for control; Suigetsu, who has a bloodline limit for survival and can be used for assassination; and Kisame Hoshigaki, who has strong overall abilities.

One more class is needed to complete the perfect lineup...

Yoriichi slowly opened his eyes. He recalled the time when he attacked Konoha, the people who had come back from the dead, the slug sage who was good at healing, and the transmigrator Lingyu, who had really disgusted him.

But this also precisely illustrates the importance of medical ninjas in battle.

During that battle, Yoriichi had done his best to seal off Konoha Hospital, but his seemingly foolproof plan was still thwarted by Tsunade, the Slug Sage, and Ryougi.

"Deidara," Yorimitsu called softly, his expression indifferent.

"When we pass through the Land of Grass, let's stop first."

"We still need to recruit, for the last member..."

Deidara hesitated for a moment, then nodded. The bird circled and accelerated, drawing a falling curve in the air.

Yoriichi had truly established himself as a leader in Deidara's heart. Perhaps it started with the explosion that defeated Haku, or it might have started with him blocking the attack from Murasame Kagura, or perhaps it was when he released Wood Release to save everyone from the Fifth Mizukage's control.

Yoriichi took a deep breath. The last member he was looking for was a ninja with outstanding healing abilities.

That is Karin Uzumaki, who is currently in the Land of Grass. She has a very special constitution; as long as you lightly bite her body, the wound can be healed.

This is a healing ability unique to Karin and her mother.

It is said to be some kind of extremely special bloodline limit, and none of the other Uzumaki clan members have such an ability.

It was precisely because of this ability that Karin and her mother were kidnapped to the Land of Grass to serve as healing tools for the wounded.

To protect young Karin, Karin's mother took on most of the treatment herself, eventually collapsing from her injuries.

In the cold, dark chamber, the tormented ninjas tore at Karin's bound mother until her face gradually turned pale.

Karin spent her childhood under her mother's protection, and after her mother's death, she will face the same painful situation.

“Suigetsu…” Yoriichi called out.

"Hmm?" Shuiyue was chatting with Kisame when Yoriichi called out to him, so he turned his head to listen attentively.

“We’re going to rescue a girl. You two will definitely become a perfect team in the future.” Yoriichi chuckled softly, then suddenly realized that what he had said was inexplicable.

In the original story, Karin and Suigetsu meet several years later, when Karin has just grown into a young woman and is ordered by the Land of Grass to participate in the Chunin Exams.

Later, when Orochimaru attacked Konoha, she was kidnapped by Orochimaru and trained to become an independent and excellent female ninja. It was at that time that she met Hozuki Suigetsu, Sasuke, and others.

"If you say so, then I'll take it as yes." Suigetsu smiled, rubbing her forehead, and looked at Yoriichi, revealing her little tiger teeth.

In the distance, an eagle swooped past the clay bird, nearly colliding with it. Deidara struggled to control the bird's direction, barely dodging the eagle with its sharp pupils, and then stood still, cursing.

Yoriichi steadied himself, his bright red pupils sweeping over the swiftly flying eagle, and a new idea formed in his mind.

Since the current priority is to find Karin Uzumaki and has already taken Suigetsu as a subordinate, why not assemble the entire Taka Squad?

Cultivate them from a young age, so they can serve you!

Yoriichi's vision gradually became more insightful. Yes, there was no need to go through Orochimaru; he could simply assemble the Hawk Squad himself in advance.

After taking Karin Uzumaki away, they found Jugo among Orochimaru's experimental subjects in Kageyama Village, and then went to Konoha to take Sasuke away...

Although it sounds difficult and risky, the rewards can be huge!

It's decided then!

Yoriichi's mind was racing with thoughts, but a smile he couldn't hide crept onto his face.

Eagle Squad Assemble Plan, Established!

Chapter 51 Karin Uzumaki

From the gloomy detention cell came screams, extremely sharp and terrified cries, the voice sounding like that of a young girl.

The cries attracted the guards and ninjas outside, who quickly approached and stared intently into the interior of the detention room—in the center of a dark, cramped thatched hut—at a beautiful red-haired girl.

In the detention cell filled with weeds, her red hair stood out, quickly attracting the attention of the guard ninja.

Despite being called a detention cell, its sparse layout makes it more like a prison where prisoners are held.

The girl's face was pale. The scream she had just heard was indeed hers. She was panting heavily, her medium-length red hair buried between her legs as she sobbed.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?" the guard shouted, kicking the door menacingly.

The heavy knocking on the iron gate startled Karin Uzumaki, who was cowering and trembling. She slightly raised her head, revealing a pair of red glasses covered in mist.

"I had a nightmare..."

"Tch!" The man dressed in the ninja uniform of the Land of Grass was a little annoyed. Being on night duty as a guard was already enough to make him resentful.

He kicked the iron gate hard, the sound making Karin in the darkness tremble slightly before she numbly lowered her head again.

She had grown accustomed to this routine, from being taken out of her cell every morning to be bitten and treated by the ninjas, to being locked up again at night in this dark, smelly, overgrown shed.

But the physical pain made it difficult for her to fall asleep. She closed her eyes and counted sheep, trying to forget the pain.

She thought of her mother, who had taught her this method for when she couldn't sleep. Back then, she often suffered from pain at night and couldn't fall asleep, but at least her mother was there to comfort her.

Just now, she tried to distract herself and forget the pain in her body, and sure enough, she fell asleep.

But in my dream, my mother's gaunt face gradually appeared...

Bound to the stage, his pale, helpless face was being torn apart.

A clap of thunder flashed—

Karin couldn't help but scream.

"Mom is dead...Mom died a long time ago." Karin curled up in her cell and sobbed softly. She couldn't wake the guards outside, or their feet would be kicking the iron bars for more than just a few times.

Karin, who was only seven years old, trembled uncontrollably. Her longing for love and freedom was bound by iron chains. An iron chain emerged from Karin's body and gently embraced her.

—This is a sealing technique that the Uzumaki clan excels at.

The cold iron chains pressed against Karin's body, gradually calming her heart. She closed her eyes, savoring the sensation of being in contact with the chains.

"Mom, thank you for comforting me again. I'll be good..."

Karin rubbed affectionately against the iron chain, tears welling up in her eyes and leaving a soft, rustling sensation around her eyes.

She liked the feeling; she treated the iron chains like her mother's embrace, even though they were incredibly cold...

"Huh?" Karin's heart skipped a beat. A warm touch appeared on her tear-reddened face, as if something was caressing her cheek and wiping away her tears.

She hadn't felt this way in a long time.

Karin raised her head in alarm, staring directly at the person wiping away her tears.

He had a pair of gentle, blood-red eyes and wore a black robe, which, despite being the same color, stood out from the surrounding darkness.

The black robe smelled pleasantly, unlike the stench of the surrounding dark weeds.

Karin's pupils trembled slightly as she looked at her "fellow inmate."

Yoriichi Uchiha smiled and wiped away Karin's tears. Karin's pretty face flushed slightly, and she nervously took a step back.

She always seemed to carry a fear of others, but at this moment, her heart was not completely consumed by fear. It was as if something else was pounding wildly within her.

It's a heart that hasn't received care in a long time...

"Karin, let's leave this place together." A calm voice rang out, like a ray of hope illuminating Karin.

Karin's eyes widened. Leave this place? This was something she had never considered, something she could call an ideal.

"I..." The girl's lips trembled slightly, and hot tears welled up again. How she wanted to just agree.

A loud crash echoed in Karin's mind. Yoriichi swung his longsword lightly, severing the iron fence in front of the gate. The fiery red blade was still wreathed in blazing flames, a state of perfect sword fusion. Yoriichi had gradually mastered this technique to perfection.

"Who's there?" The guard outside was awakened again by the loud noise. He had already fallen asleep, and for him, taking care of a small child, especially one in an iron cell, was originally an insignificant matter.

But this loud noise was unusual, because it sounded like cutting through steel.

The guard paced nervously until he reached the two men, the faint moonlight illuminating the man's fierce face.

Karin's eyes widened, and she stepped back again.

"No, I won't go out! I won't go out." She covered her head, her voice hoarse and sharp, like a steel needle piercing her body, bringing a clear stinging sensation.

Karin recalled that most of those who tried to escape before were beaten half to death and then thrown back into the cell.

She had witnessed a desperate little boy die in the room next to hers...

"No, it wasn't me..." Karin's voice was filled with despair and regret.

She desperately wanted to escape... but how could that be possible...?

"Boom!" Another deafening roar echoed through the room, which began to shake violently. Karin looked up in shock.

Yuan Yi raised his flaming sword and with one stroke, he cut the guarding man and the ceiling in two.

A pair of warm hands were placed in front of her eyes, stopping her from looking any further.

Yoriichi covered Karin's eyes with one hand and lifted her up with the other.

Karin was startled and tried to struggle down, but the moonlight shining through the gap in her palms deeply attracted her eyes.

"Karin, do you want freedom, to live, and to be my subordinate?" Yoriichi asked, and before Karin could reply, the surrounding environment changed once again.

Yoriichi gradually loosened his grip on Karin's eyes, and the light in Karin's eyes became even brighter. It wasn't the light coming from the window, but a beautiful, unbelievable full moon!

Under the moonlight, Yoriichi transformed into a golden flash, cradling Karin in his arms, and swept past the full moon!

Karin looked to the side in disbelief. The two had already left the confined cell. Looking down, she saw that the building where she and the other "sinners" were imprisoned had been cleaved in two by a burst of fire, and the entire second and third floors had been cut off and collapsed.

"You still haven't answered me?" Yoriichi chuckled softly.

A hint of anxiety appeared on Karin's face beneath her red hair, and her small mouth immediately became quick and clever, "I...I do."
