Summary

Sakura pushes Sasuke to bring her along, insisting she will stand with him even if his path means Konoha's ruin. He accepts on the condition that she dispose of Karin. When she draws near and searches for a chance to strike Sasuke down instead, Karin warns her that Sasuke is already moving to kill her. Kakashi arrives in time to shield Sakura from the blow.

Key Events

Speaking as the boy's former instructor, Kakashi volunteers to end Sasuke himself, sparing Sakura the act and atoning for failing to intervene earlier, his thoughts turning to how Hiruzen once faced the same burden with Orochimaru. While Sakura tends to Karin's wounds, Kakashi makes a last appeal for Sasuke to abandon his thirst for revenge. Sasuke rejects it, and both sides steel themselves for the fight ahead.
