Meanwhile in the Hidden Leaf, Konohamaru and his team-mates were out on patrol when they hear the captive Karin, who is feigning her mental instability to lessen the guards' attention and begins to plot her escape. At the same time, Jūgo and Suigetsu reach out of Orochimaru’s hideouts while searching for Sasuke, Jūgo asking Suigetsu of his reasons for joining Team Taka before he suddenly goes berserk. Suigetsu manages to subdue Jūgo, whose rampage reveals a secret room where they find a scroll containing important information.
