The Red Flash Chapter 67 (The Red Sword)

She felt her chakra spike, her whole body burning, she felt dead, all she could feel was the pain, a pain that never left her, despite everything, she was always always someone's else property.

Her chakra turned from blue to black like night, scaring almost every genin around her.

Why can't I feel Him? Karin asker herself, she always could feel everyone's chakra but she couldn't feel Naruto's chakra.

As she felt more pain, her eyes welling in tears, Why did you have to leave us, Tou-san, everything would be alright right now?? We would be home together...

' "Karin," She heard her mother's voice calling out to her. It sounded it a bit different from usual but ran to her as always.

"Yes mother?" A red haired five year old made her way to her mother. She saw that the front door was opened and that they had a visitor. A visitor from the village they were staying at. 'What do they want now,' she thought sadly. 'Can't they wait for my fathers return?'

Her mother turned now to face her with tears in her dark red eyes. "Karin,"

The small girl ran to her mother and embraced her tightly. "Mom, why are you crying?"

The woman held her daughter tighter. "Karin, your..." She pulled back and faced her daughter. "Your fathers back,"

"Dad is back?" She shook her head in confusion. "But I didn't sense his chakra this morning, I would have welcomed him at the gate."

"He's outside," the village spoke, she looked up to the dirty man and didn't like his tone. He sounded annoyed and bored to even be here at their small house.

"Outside?" Her mother refused to let go of her and this scared Karin. "Mom I want to see dad, is he okay."

She felt tears start to form in her eyes. 'Why....why do I feel sad...why do I sense something bad....'

"Karin," her mother held her once more and she felt her shake.

"MOTHER!" Karin finally screamed. "Let go of me I want to see my father!"

With all her strength she had she escaped her hold and ran past the villager who stood at their door.

Her mother now was on the floor crying and whispering her father name.

Karin looked outside at their dry front yard and saw two other villagers next to a cart. They looked at her and proceeded to bring out a body which was covered in a white blanket.

They dropped the body on the floor and left.

Karin stood in shock as the body's hand had not been covered and she saw that on the index figure was a ring. A ring similar to her mothers. A ring that was promised to be hers one day when she would be older.

A ring that her father had promised to give her at her wedding day when she would become older.

"N-No....." She ran to the body, afraid to uncover the face but she had to. She had to know.....

With her small hands she uncovered the face that was covered in a not so clean cover.

She saw bright red hair such a she own, she saw the lips had been darted with dry blood. The body's eyes were closed.

"Daddy.....daddy...." She shook her father's cold body. "Daddy come on....wake up.....I'll help you clean up.....you're a brave solider huh...I want to be as strong as you one day..." She placed her hand on his forehead. "Daddy let me see your eyes...I want to see your eyes.....daddy....."

Her mother made it to her side and she held Karin. "Karin....."

"Mom, tell dad to wake up," She pleaded still looking at her father. "Tell him to wake up, he has to clean up and tomorrow he'll take me to school right?"

"Karin," Her mother pressed her face on her back. "My love....."

"Dad come on your making mom cry...."

"Karin, please....he's.....your dad...he's..."

The red haired girl didn't want to hear it. "No.....no...no...no....NO!"

She finally gave up and threw herself onto her father dead body. "DAD! NO! NOO! NO! NO!"

She didn't know how long she cried that day or how numb she felt as she helped bury her father in front of their house with her mother.

She didn't know that, that day would only be the first day of her losing everything in her life.

She didn't know that in 2 years she would also have to bury her mother's body next to her fathers.

She didn't know that her own body would also be used just as her parent's bodies were used.

In a war that wasn't for her to fight in.

As a young child, he father and mother were taken away from her. Her body was also taken away from her.

She was 8 when she met him.

The snake man she had called him and he just laughed.

"My, what lovely red hair you have," He reached out to her but she quickly moved away from his touch.

'Karin you have your fathers hair, so nice and soft'

"Don't touch my hair!" She spat out, glaring at the man that had saved her from two grown men.

"Oh and matching fiery eyes." He laughed. "Interesting."

'Your eyes are as bright as your mother, what a beautiful daughter I have been blessed with.'

"Stop looking at me you freak!" Karin started to back away as she sensed that the man's chakra was so dark and cold. "Just leave me alone, I know you've been following me! These men attacking me was part of your plan right!"

"Tsk, tsk," the man shook his head in disapproval. "How can you say that little girl, I just saw you were in the need of help."

"Bullshit! I can feel your chakra and it's disgusting."

"Feel my chakra?" His yellow eyes lit up in amazement.

'Honey do you know what Karin did today,'

'What happened is she okay?'

'She's more than okay she's amazing, she sensed you from 5 miles away!'

"B-but's she's only 4!'

'I know! Isn't that amazing and such an early age she would make the Uzma-,'

'Dear, shh, no one else must know,'

'Karin you have a great gift.'

"So, leave me alone!" Karin started to walk away but he moved in such a high speed she almost collided into him.

"And where will you go?" He questioned. "Will you go back to the village full of people who abuse your powers?"

"H-How..." She stared at him.

"Come with me Karin," he offered her his hand. "If you leave with me, I will help you to grow your power and make it your own."

"My own?"

'Karin one day your powers will be used by others, but don't you ever forget that these powers are yours,'

"Yes my dear, your own power and you may use it however you wish to,"

She looked at him threw her glasses and nodded. "Fine, take me away from this place."

She was taken away by a man that had promised her power yet he used her as well. He experimented on her.

He used her.

Her body was still not her own.

Her powers were not hers to use.

She really didn't have a childhood.

She had a tragic past.

She suffered.

She was alone. '

Naruto

Many genins in his immediate vicinity were terrified by the image in front of them; even the Jonins were taken aback by what they were witnessing; her chakra had darkened and become much more powerful.

Sasuke was taken aback, wondering what kind of power this was. His curiosity was piqued, and he didn't want to admit that it was something he had never experienced before; he wasn't a sensor, but even he could sense the malice in the air around him.

The pressure had caused cracks in the concrete, which had begun to crack.

Uzumaki Naruto, on the other hand, was enraged because Orochimaru had caused this to a member of the Uzumaki Clan, who had suffered for how many years before this Snake did this to them.

"Karin, you have to stop doing this," "Shut up, he saved... me. I'm obligated to complete this task "Karin screamed as more chakra engulfed her entire body, causing her to lose more control. While her skin had turned white, her chakra had darkened and her red hair had turned a dark purple.

Grasping his sword with greater strength than before, Naruto's chakra flew around it, creating a wave of heat that spread throughout the arena.

Everyone was taken aback by the heat, and Kakashi looked at Naruto's sword with interest; he didn't understand why the edge of the sword had turned bright red, almost like blood, but he couldn't help but notice the pressure around them.

Despite the fact that Naruto's hands were on fire and the heat of the pommel was unbearable to anyone else, Naruto was able to maintain control of the sword despite the extreme heat.

Karin's yellow pupil narrowed slightly as she took in what she was seeing in front of her. It appeared as though Naruto's hand had been enveloped in the red chakra of the Kyuubi, and the sword he was holding had been transformed as well; its edge had turned red, and the pommel had become warm in a way.

"Can you tell me what's going on?" After noticing the pressure all around them, Sakura inquired aloud. It felt underwhelming, as if heavy weights were suddenly placed on their shoulders, forcing them to the ground.

Hiruzen could only watch in awe, the last people he had seen using The Red Sword were Kushina and Mito Uzumaki, and the Red Sword was a special type that caused the sword itself to harm the user if they couldn't handle it; if a normal person attempted to hold the sword when it had turned into a Red Sword, their skin would burn beyond recognition, and they would die as well.

He used to wonder if The Red Sword was something that could only be used by Uzumakis because he had never heard of anyone else being able to perform that Kenjutsu move.

Yugao looked on in awe; she had read about the Kenjutsu move and had even attempted to replicate it, but had failed miserably in her attempts.

She was looking at it with her own eyes and was amazed.

Many people became dizzy as a result of the heat generated by Naruto's sword, with some even losing consciousness. Sakura fell to her knees, but Kakashi helped her to her feet before she fell completely unconscious, as did Ino, Choji, Kiba, Hinata, and many others.

Despite the fact that Naruto was holding the sword, he could feel the pain; it was slight, but he could still feel it.

'Kurama, what exactly is this?' He asked himself this question mentally, not understanding what was going on, but he could feel his hand burning, which was happening at a slow pace.

"Congratulations Naruto, you just unlocked your Red Sword but this is not the time for celebration, end this fight, the first time of using this technique can cause serious damage," Kurama warned knowing such a technique was created by Roku Uzumaki himself.

"What exactly do you mean? I'd never heard of it before, so how am I supposed to use it if I didn't even know it existed?" Naruto asked himself, his hand burning hot from the heat of the pommel.

"Later Naruto, now finish this Duel," Kurama said, knowing that this Kenjutsu Move wasn't an S-Rank move for nothing.

After mentally nodding, Naruto took his position. Karin's last purple eye turned yellow, and the sword in her hand began to change as well, the edge becoming blackened and a dark chakra encircling it.

Tsunade stood there terrified, remembering how Grandma Mito had once cut down an entire forest with a single swing of her red sword, a technique she had named 'Single Swing' at the time, which meant that the duel would be over in one swing, one attack, and that was it.

"If you survive this Karin, then I would be happy to offer you some Ramen," Naruto spoke, Karin felt something on her chest by his words but immediately pushed them away, preparing her stance ready to cut Naruto in two.

Because he knew this technique was out of the ordinary, Kakashi pushed both Sasuke and Sakura behind him.

The Red Sword was being watched with dread and interest by Ashara, who had never heard of it before, but she could feel the amount of chakra that had accumulated at the sword.

Naruto's chakra had caused the sword to turn red, and Karin's chakra now was as dark as night, causing her sword to turn black.

Naruto and Karin both moved at the same time. They're sprinting towards each other, ready to put an end to it with a single move.

"Single Swing,"

"Dark Mirror,"

Before anyone realized what was happening, time seemed to have stopped for a split second. Both Naruto and Karin stood where the other had stood only a split second before, their swords still engulfed in chakra.

Everyone waited with bated breath because no one could see a single difference between them; they appeared to be the same as before, with no wounds or anything.

In particular, Jiraiya, who wanted to see what had happened, was feeling the dread take over them. Tsunade was feeling the same way.

Neither Gitago nor anyone on the Kumo team could tell who had won; Aniko, on the other hand, was completely unaware, he had no idea who had won but was incredibly excited to see who would be cut open.

Hiruzen looked down at the results with a sour expression on his face, knowing who had won and feeling a pang of pity for the loser.

Orochimaru, you monster...

When Karin suddenly fell to her knees, her sword fell from her hand and stabbed into the concrete. The sword then returned to its normal state, and a slash of blood flowed across her chest like a waterfall...
