He'll carry her back to the others, then. They can go through pockets as a group.

Permalink

Various weapons and tools, mostly.

Chihiro comes up with a heaven scroll from the one who was underground.

"This is what we needed."

Permalink

Can Sasuke hide this one too?

Permalink

Yes. He'll have to quickly re-slot the spell, and getting it back out will be a pain. He sets to doing that.

To the Tower once he finishes?

Permalink

There is no sense in delaying, unless it takes them longer than a day to reach the tower. In which case it might be worth setting a nighttime ambush to reduce competition.

Permalink

Sensible.

Then they're off soon enough.

Permalink

Very shortly thereafter, when they've cleared their fight but before they're a significant distance to the tower, there's a massive gust of wind, strong enough to blow the group members away from each other.

Permalink

...That was not a genin-level technique. She needs to link back up with her team.

Permalink

Sugira finds her, sharingan active, before their opponent. Confirming identity is fast enough - they have enough shared experiences.

And then there's death, the air heavy, kunai piercing their foreheads -

Except that shouldn't happen, Sugira's spell protects them -

Sugira wrenches out of the illusion, takes a deep breath, and tightens his grip on his sword.

It takes Chihiro just a second longer. She really hates genjutsu. And this- feels like jounin-level. At least. The exam is important; there are guards, visible and invisible. They must be skilled to make it in here. After the jinchuuriki, or the last Uchiha, maybe.

"You are not such little mice, are you?" asks a man, emerging from the shadows. "Uchiha Sasuke and Chihiro of ROOT. The question becomes if you'll be more entertaining than your friend was."

Permalink

Orochimaru. She brings her sword up and pushes Sasuke away.

"Run."

Permalink

"I'm not abandoning my team." Especially since this asshole implied he did something to Naruto. And there's something horribly familiar... "If he wanted me dead, there'd be no fighting."

Permalink

"A clever little mouse. I commend you for your bravery. It won't matter at all."

And he's behind them.

Permalink

She spins, pushes chakra down the blade, swings-

Permalink

He catches it with his bare hand, to no apparent ill effect.

Permalink

She pulls it back, and leaps backward.

Permalink

And two bolts of lightning lance from Sugira - they're relatively weak compared to something like chidori, but devastatingly accurate - 

Permalink

He leans to the side, causing both to miss.

"Fascinating. Not a technique I've seen before - and you're not using chakra, are you?"

Permalink

Two more lightning bolts is Orochimaru's only answer, as Sugira starts zipping around, his form blurring.

Permalink

He dodges those by jumping into the air, then spins and shoots a mud bullet at Sasuke.

Permalink

He teleports ten feet forward, and slashes at Orochimaru even as the bullet breaks a tree behind him - 

Permalink

They really should have run, but if they're going to fight, she's going to fight.

The Headsman's Blade isn't really designed to be used in a team fight, so it's a good thing she and Sasuke have practiced coordinating.

Permalink

Orochimaru laughs, ducking under both blades, then lazily trying to trip Sasuke.

Permalink

Who avoids it, jumping back a bit.
