Next chapter of Blood is Thicker Than Bone. Healed, Kimimaro adjusts to his new life in Konoha. However, Orochimaru plans another way to regain the use of his arms and lost abilities leading to a discovery.

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto

Kimimaro sat on the roof of the apartment building looking out at the sights before him as he looked on at Konoha The Hidden Leaf Village, his new home. Watching on as the sun rose up symbolizing a new day. It had been a week since he had been healed by Tsunade The new Hokage of Konoha, The Godaime. His sickness and disease that had plagued him for so long was finally gone forever as he was healthy for the first time in almost a year, having been at deaths door for so long he had forgotten what it was like to be able to breathe without being in pain.

"Hey," He heard a voice and saw Naruto walking forward towards him wearing his outfit he had gotten him. He would alternate his clothes at time. Sometimes he would wear his regular orange outfit while other days he would wear what he had gotten him when they first began training.

"Are you doing okay?" He asked his quiet cousin who looked on at the Village as people were beginning to wake up and go about their business. Preparing for the new day of their lives.

"I'm fine Naruto." Kimimaro said in response to the blonde Shikotsumyaku user. Kimimaro took a deep breath and let it out as his lungs were fully operational as he showed no hindrance or liability as he had been before.

Naruto looked on at the Kaguya and turned his head to look out at the village.

Unaware to the two, they were being watched from afar.

"Most interesting, the two last wielders of Shikotsumyaku." Danzo The Leader of ROOT and former candidate for Hokage said as he watched on the two through a hawk summon. The One eyed man watched on as he looked at the two seeing a presenting opportunity to use Kimimaro as his weapon.

He had plans to be appointed the Godaime of Konoha after Sarutobi's death but his efforts were thwarted by Tsunade's unexpected return. He had never thought she would return or that the Uzumaki child would succeed in finding her. He cursed his luck at how they had find her as he was days away from going to others to see if he could have their support in becoming the next Hokage. Tsunade had overwhelming support from the Council and the Shinobi of the Leaf and he knew he could not hope to beat her as she was a celebrated Hero. But the Old man had showed support and loyalty to her, putting on a mask to make everyone else believe he was happy she had come.

He clutched his lone hand into a fist looking on at Naruto and Kimimaro. "Blasted Uzumaki, ruined my plan but no matter, I have plenty of patience." He murmured to himself as he was in his room looking on. "Let her be Hokage for now, I just need to keep biding my time and building up my own strength. I will not be denied what should've been mine decades ago." He said sourly thinking back as to how Sarutobi instead of himself was appointed the Sandaime. A position that he coveted and believed should've been his.

He watched on as he saw the two. Right now the last Users of Shikotsumyaku lived in Konoha, this was an opportunity that was presenting itself before him. Dead Bone Pulse was a dangerous Kekkai Genkai, no doubt he knew that the traitor Orochimaru had wanted it for himself the same way he desired the Sharingan of the Uchihas but due to the Kaguya's disease had prevented him from getting that.

He narrowed his eye as he looked on as he saw them leave thinking of a way he could use this to his advantage…

Tayuya was at the grocery store finished shopping for food for her apartment home. The redhead carrying a pair of bags and wearing new clothes as her original outfit had been discarded. She was wearing a sleeveless beige outfit that she had custom made and it had a cut in the middle to show off her toned stomach. She still wore her hat having kept it.

The flute player finished paying and exited the store. Most people didn't look at her, or if they did it was full of suspicion and mistrust they were giving her. But she paid them no mind, if they had a problem with her say it to her face.

Jiraiya had removed the seal on her body that he had placed as well as the Cursed Seal also. It had taken quite an effort for him to do so but it was gone now. The last remnants of her ties to Orochimaru faded away

Heading to her home she put the food up and went to her room and laid down on her bed and her hat fell off letting her long cherry red hair flow. It wasn't much but it was better than her home back in Otogakure. She let out a sigh looking up at the ceiling thinking of her new life as while she wasn't officially made one, she was for all intents and purposes a Kunoichi of Konoha now. The irony was not lost on her.

She would never forgive what Orochimaru and the others had done abandoning her like that, not even caring that she was wounded as they left her to die.

Ever since she had resigned from Otogakure and told Orochimaru to piss off, she had stayed in Konoha. She knew she was under constant supervision, no doubt she was being watched now by an ANBU disguised as a civilian, she didn't get to be one of Orochimaru's guards just cause of her flute playing skills she knew she was being watched by them as they still mistrusted her. Frankly she didn't give a damn whether they did trust her or not.

Looking up she let out a sigh wondering what was going to happen now in her life.

At the Hospital…

Tsunade looked at the vials and samples through a microscope taking a good long look as they contained Kimimaro's cells. The cells that had the disease in them. She was concentrating as she got a closer look at them, how they affected his body as they were slowly contaminating his blood cells and destroying them. Within hours it would be destroyed. Only Kimimaro's healing factor he possessed had enabled him to live so long with it as a normal person would be dead within a month at the most from the disease.

She examined the disease looking for a way so she could neutralize and destroy it. This was a new disease and unique to her but it must be dealt with, a cure must be made so that it would not take anymore lives.

"Tsunade-sama?" Shizune said looking at her as with her was Sakura Haruno and a male Medic named Yoh. "Have you discovered anything about the disease?"

"Yes, I'm not sure how Kimimaro contacted it but its fatally dangerous as I just barely managed to save his life in time." She said to them. "For if this remains unchecked it will

"This disease should be destroyed at once," Tsunade said as she examined them. "I'm working on a cure as of today and Sakura," She said to the pink haired girl. "I want you to study under me and help me out here, you'll be my assistant."

"R-Really?" Sakura said in shock that she would chose her. It was a high honor for the Hokage and one of the greatest Medics in the land to chose you. "Are you sure?"

"Yes, I'm not joking. I sense you have raw natural talent for being a medic and need to tap into that potential." Tsunade said to her. "However this isn't a holiday nor is it a vacation. I expect you to be taking plenty of notes and studying and not goofing off understand?"

"Yes Hokage-sama!" Sakura said bowing her head repeatedly to her.

"Good, if you perform well maybe I'll teach you more skills and techniques." Tsunade said to her and she nodded her head. "Now then, first things first I want you to take these vials and place them in storage and lock them away. No one is to touch them or even look at them except for me." She said to her.

"Yes Hokage-sama!" Sakura said as she stood up.

"Good, I'm going to do some more research. And see if that Rock Lee kid will agree to my offer of surgery. I'll see you later." She said and stood up and left the room.

"Better not disappoint her," Yoh said to her with a smile. "Not many get the chance to work with The Hokage and fewer more so if they disappoint them." He said and his smile made her frown as he was teasing her.

Sakura placed the multiple vials inside the box, carefully placing them inside and making sure the corks on them were screwed in tight to prevent them from leaking. As she prepared to put them away she noticed a nurse struggling with a bed as she pushed it.

"Here let me help you." Sakura said as she helped them push the bed down the hallway. "It's no bother at all," She told them as they pushed it to the room and set it up.

Unaware to them, Yoh watched on and with her back turned secretly pilfered one of the vials and slipped it in his coat pocket with nobody looking.

Making sure no one was watching, he closed the box and he silently exited the Hospital making sure no one was watching and disappeared into the crowd as he made his way out of Konoha.

"This is not the reason I had you go to Konoha," Orochimaru said to him later that night looking at the vial laid before him.

"No master," Yoh said to him in a kneeling state. "But I, I thought that-"

"Silence!" Orochimaru commanded to him and he bowed his head. The Sannin looked back at the vial. "This might be even better, if I could find a way to use and spread this I could destroy my enemies with Kimimaro's own disease that had plagued him for so long." He said as he examined the vial and Yoh smirked thinking he had done well.

In truth he was actually a spy for Orochimaru who had been sent in the previous month to infiltrate Konoha after his attempt to destroy Konoha had failed. With all the chaos and rebuilding that had gone on he was able to slip in easily and worked at the hospital which put him close with medical records as well as the New Hokage.

"Raiga!" He said to the swordsmen. "Gather your men, you have a mission at my base on the outskirts of Fire Country, remove all the equipment and experiments there." He ordered him. "No doubt Kimimaro has told them about it and others.

Raiga went to go exiting the room.

Orochimaru looked back at the vial and let out a chuckle as a snake smile appeared on his face as a wicked idea was forming in his brain.

"Kimimaro why aren't you wearing your Hitai-ate?" Naruto said to his cousin as they walked through Konoha. His Hitai-ate that he had been given had been staying in the same spot ever since he had gotten it, it looked like he hadn't even touched it. "You're a Leaf Ninja now, you should be wearing this like the way I do." He said to him.

"I never said I would be a Leaf Ninja Naruto," Kimimaro responded to his cousin. "I've have few fond memories of the last village I served."

"What do you mean?" Naruto asked him not understanding.

"The last Village I served wiped out my clan and killed my mother." Kimimaro said to him referring to what had happened with Mist.

"Good point," Naruto said wincing a bit remembering his past and how his family and clan had been slaughtered. "But we're not like that, that will never happen here." He said to him. "No way would anyone try something like that." He said to him but it did little to comfort him as he was still adjusting to his new life.

Kimimaro had given Tsunade and the others information; Information about what Orochimaru was planning as well as the locations of some of his bases also, teams had been sent to attack and destroy them and hinder what he was doing. To put a stop to whatever that twisted man was doing.

Naruto looked at his stoic cousin, they had been training the past week working on their skills. Kimimaro's skills and moves since he was healthy had improved so much as he was no longer hindered by it, Naruto knew he had to improve himself if he was to match him now.

Naruto looked on and spotted Tayuya walking spotting the former Sound Kunoichi, she didn't see him as her back was to him. Naruto watched as she walked a small part of him still wondering if he could trust her or not, she did save his life though from the rest of the Sound Four.

Kimimaro was also looking on at Tayuya his comrade if you could call her that. Few people he had given that label and fewer he had called friend. The Kaguya looked at her as he watched her. She was skilled and competent in battle he'd give her that, well verse in Genjutsu and Trash Talking with her Sailor Mouth.

A poof of smoke appeared next to them and Kakashi appeared. "Hello there," He said to the two drawing their attention. "Naruto, Kimimaro I see you two are out and about today."

"What is it sensei?" Naruto asked him.

"I wanted to talk to you and tell Tsunade wished to speak to you both tomorrow." He explained to them. "The Hokage wants to talk to you and Jiraiya will likely be there as well."

"What about?" Naruto asked him.

"There are rumors, just something I've heard that both Kimimaro and that foul tempered red head that was brought back, Tayuya wasn't it? They will be put on a mission."

"I refuse." Kimimaro stated immediately surprising them. "I already told you I have no loyalty to the Leaf, I will not be their weapon." He said to them.

"Easy…" Kakashi said to him. "Just at least hear her out and see what she wants you to do. At the most it will be nothing too serious I believe as they will be starting you out on something simple." He said but Kimimaro's expression didn't change. "I know all about what happened to your Clan Kimimaro, and I assure you that Konoha is nothing like Mist or how it was called when you were growing up The Bloody Mist." He said to him as he had heard about what Mist had done, wiping out and killing those with Kekkai Genkai, the Mizukage sparing no one as men, women, elderly, and children were executed by his ninjas.

"Yeah c'mon you gotta at least go there and see what she has to say." Naruto said to his cousin who was quiet.

"Fine then, but I'll leave if they intend to just use me the way I've been used in the past." He answered after a long moment.

"I assure you that won't happen." Kakashi said to him. "Also Naruto, come meet me and the others at our usual spot. We got some training to do." He said and disappeared in another poof of smoke.

Naruto bid his cousin goodbye and made his way to the training grounds were Team 7 was at. He saw Sasuke and Sakura there and Kakashi soon appeared as well.

"Sakura, I see you have found a purpose now." Kakashi said to the pink haired girl who had a medic book with her.

"Yes Sensei, Tsunade has given me the opportunity to study under her." Sakura said blushing a bit and Kakashi chuckled a bit.

"Now then, today I want all three of you to work on a combo move." He said to them. "Basically an A Class move that has all three of your attacks combined into one." He said to them. "As a team, this attack can defeat even the greatest foes if used and timed correctly." He explained to them. "I want you three to use your best attacks and try it out…on me." He said surprising them. "Timing and Precision is the key here."

"Sensei? Are you sure about this?" Naruto said to him not sure if his Sensei finally lost it.

"Of course I am. Go ahead and give it your best shot."

Team 7 looked back at one another not sure what to do.

"He's gotta be bluffing." Naruto said looking at him and back to the others.

"He's risking himself, he could get hurt if he lets us do this." Sakura said to them.

"Let's just do it." Sasuke said. "We'll never gain strength if we stand around hesitating. He knows what he's doing." He said to them.

Kakashi looking on turned his back to them and suddenly mimicked the call of a chicken. Naruto's eyes narrowed at that as he was insulting them.

"Let's try it out," Naruto said to the others and they each went into position.

Kakashi looked on as he saw them move around. He heard the sounds of birds chirping as Sasuke began charging his Chidori and Naruto made two clones and the three wielded bone swords. Sakura took a deep breath as she focused herself.

Sakura made the first move charging forward and threw a punch fused with Chakra at him. Kakashi moved out of the way surprising her and kicked him in the back sending her stumbling to the floor.

"Chidori!" Sasuke shouted firing it but Kakashi avoided it effortlessly dodging it as it flew over Sakura's head.

"Dance of The Crescent Moon!" Naruto shouted as the three clones attacked. Kakashi wiped out a single kunai and deflected all attacks with it and grabbing the real Naruto threw him onto the ground.

Kakashi let out a chuckle as he stood there in a squatted position looking on at them. "You have much to learn, you should've tried to wear me down before you did it as I knew immediately what you were planning the moment you got into position. Sakura charging in like that made it clear what you was planning on doing although you have learned to channel your chakra to increase your strength. During your time with Tsunade I would advise you to learn a move from her. Sasuke you were too anxious to go for the kill, you might have winded up hitting or killing Sakura with your move if you had aimed lower. And Naruto, instead of going for your move and hoped it would get me you should've waited until the others were up so you could reform your plan and next method of attack." He said to the three members.

"That's enough for today, until you can execute this fully you will never achieve true mastery of being a team." He said to them and disappeared again in a poof of smoke.

"Guys let's try working out our moves." Naruto said to the others. "Kakashi has a point."

"I have other things to do right now." Sasuke said and turned and walked away and doing so reached towards his neck where the Cursed Seal was at.

Sakura looked on at him and looked back at Naruto. "Naruto, I'm worried about him. Even since he's gotten beaten he's changed and not for the better."

"I know," Naruto said to her. Like his Cousin that Cursed Seal was affecting Sasuke making him more desiring power and his encounter with his brother did little to help him.

That night…

A group of four Shinobi made their way silently not making a sound as they made it onto the roof of a building.

It looked like an abandoned warehouse but in truth it was one of Orochimaru's bases that he had, hidden under a Genjutsu as it housed some of his projects.

"C'mon guys," Shikamaru the leader of the group said as they leapt down from the rooftops to a lower part of the building. With him were TenTen, Chouji Akimichi, and Kiba Inuzuka.

The Four were at one of the bases that Kimimaro had given Konoha. Sent to look for anything they could find that could give any info about what Orochimaru was planning. And destroy anything that he could use against them as well, that would hinder him and

"Not much for security," TenTen said looking around as it was quiet.

"TenTen, it might not look guarded, but we better move in quietly." Shikamaru told her.

"C'mon Shikamaru," Kiba said striding forward Akamaru in tow. "Let's do this." He said to them.

The group entered the door and soon found themselves inside and at a giant lab which was the main area of the base. They looked around at what they saw.

"Whoa, now this is crazy." Kiba said looking around the lab.

"Unbelievable," TenTen said looking around at all that was around them, all sorts of projects and research that had been done by him. Who knows what he had been planning over the years

"Hey look at this!" Chouji said as he spotted a tube and in it a fish like creature. Grinning he tapped on the glass with his finger and it recoiled from the noise. Laughing he did it again watching its reaction as it bounced around the tube.

"Will you quit messing around!" TenTen scolded him. Frowning he tapped it once more and went to look around.

"This place looks rather empty though," Shikamaru said analyzing the area. "Most of the stuff here looks old and hasn't been used in quite a while. Either this is a small base or they got word we were coming and vamoosed with as much stuff as they could take." He said looking around. "Let's keep an eye out though."

"I wonder if this place has a cafeteria." Chouji said but was bonked on the head by Kiba. "OW! What was that for?"

"Quit thinking with your stomach." He chastised him.

"Hey look over there!" Shikamaru said as he spotted an Computer. Making his way to it he began to look around on it.

"What is it?" Kiba asked him as they gathered around.

"Not really sure but if I can look up some info on it, We might have access to what Orochimaru's planning, his plans, his locations of bases and hideouts, even how to get into Otogakure without him knowing." Shikamaru said to them.

"Can you do it?" TenTen asked

"Not sure, computers aren't really my thing, if I try something and it doesn't work it could shut down on us in self defense." Shikamaru said.

"Eh, go for it!" Kiba said and Akamaru woofed in agreement.

"Here goes nothing," Shikamaru said and began typing on the computer searching on it. Going through the menu and typing the keys to try and find information.

"Mask of Honda?" He said as he examined what looked like a box and in it a blue mask with the carving of a Oni that was split in two. "But that was suppose to be a myth, a legend made up like The Boogieman or the belief that if you are killed by Shingami you spend the rest of your life fighting in his stomach." Shikamaru said as he looked at it.

"You got me." Chouji said as they looked on.

"Well they said that whoever wields the mask would bestow upon the fabled Samurai Tadakatsu Honda and be invulnerable to pain, similar to how it was said he competed in Hundreds of Battle in his life and never suffered an Injury in any of them. Including restoring wounds that had been suffered before such as loss of usage of limbs." Shikamaru explained. "But it's just a myth, this could just be a phony mask."

"Hey what's that?" TenTen pointing at a symbol it looked like a giant statue. Shikamaru clicked on it and it brought it up. It looked humanoid and it two hands with symbols on there fingers and there was nine holes in the middle of it.

"I wonder what that is suppose to be. If you look some of those holes seem to be filled." Shikamaru said looking on.

"Beats me, looks creepy though." Chouji said as the Statue gave him the creeps even just looking at it. As if it could come alive by the way it looked.

"Well if we discover what it is we may have a clue as to what Orochimaru's planning, it likely isn't good whatever it is." Shikamaru said as he clicked on it zooming it in getting a better look.

"Hey wait a sec, look at that." He said looking on. "I can faintly see a couple of guys on it and they are wearing those cloaks that Itachi and that shark guy wore when they appeared in Konoha." He said to them.

Unknown to them lurking in the shadows a group was waiting to strike.

"I think I might got it," Shikamaru said as he typed in words. "Huh? Damn it!" He shouted as suddenly a box with the words access denied appeared on it. "So close…" He said shaking his head as the screen went blank.

"Almost had it." Kiba said. "Try again!" He said and suddenly the computer began to spark with electricity and shut down deep frying on its own a safety measure that had been put on it as the screen went blank.

The four groaned cursing their luck at what had happened. So close only to be denied at the end and the computer had self destructed.

Suddenly they felt a presence and turned around.

"What? The Sound!" Kiba shouted as numerous Sound Nins and Kurosuki members appeared in the lab Raiga commanding them. The former Swordsmen of Mist held in his hands a small box containing a half of a Mask.

"Looking for this?" He asked them with a grin

"He's got the Mask!" Shikamaru shouted seeing he had it.

"Get it!" Kiba shouted

"I got it!" Chouji shouted and picked up the computer monitor and chucked it at him knocking it out of his hands.

TenTen caught the box containing it and a Kurosuki member rushed her. She ducked his strike and kicked him in the face knocking him away. Another rushed her and she swept his legs out from underneath him. A Sound Nin appeared slashing at her with a sword and she used the metal box to block it and bashed him in the head with it.

"TenTen! TenTen!" Chouji shouted to her and she leapt and threw it at him and he caught it. She summoned a Bo staff and spinning and twirling it dodged a spin kick and slammed it into a Sound Ninjas' stomach and knocked him away.

"Go! Go!" Chouji said to the others as they spread out knowing they had to keep it out of their hands.

"Get that box!" Raiga ordered his men as they attacked.

Kiba and Akamaru having been transformed fought against a group. "Back to Back Akamaru!" Kiba said to his canine companion as they fought with their backs to each other so no one would sneak

Shikamaru ducked under an attack and was cornered on both sides. He spotted them as they pulled out metal Staffs. He ducked the swings and misses of them timing himself. He rolled out of the way of one and dodged the other. He got up and saw them both swing at him, timing it he ducked at the right moment and the two wound up hitting each other in the face and knocking themselves out

TenTen used her staff to balance on as she leapt up and kicked two of them knocking them down as they continued to fight against them.

More Sound Nins and Kurosuki Members leapt down

A pair of Sound Nins somersaulted over the others and advanced on Chouji who had the box.

Chouji tried to run but was blocked when more appeared from the other side cutting him off.

"Uh oh!" He said panicking as he had nowhere to go.

"Hey Chouji!" Kiba shouted across the lab waving his arms. "Throw it over here, I'm wide open!"

Chouji tried to get into a position to throw it but was surrounded by them and not able to get free, a foot hit the back of his head making him drop the box into a Sound Nin's arms.

TenTen seeing it ran towards them and swung her Bo Staff and knocked it out of his hands and it flew across the room and was caught by a Kurosuki member. Immediately he got into a defensive position surrounded by others to protect him

"Guys over here!" Shikamaru said to the others who got to him looking on. "Chouji you get to him, TenTen you watch out for projectiles and draw their attention, Kiba you and Akamaru take the sides. I'll handle the rest. Got it?" He said to them and the others nodded.

"Got it!" They said and they each got into position ready to make their move.

"What are those fools planning?" Raiga said looking on as TenTen was throwing shuriken and kunai at them forcing them to move out of the way of her projectiles.

Chouji began running at them huffing and puffing as the large Shinobi doubled in size getting bigger as he came at them.

They went to attack him but found themselves unable to move as Shikamaru activated his Kage Mane and immobilized them preventing them from moving or trying to stop them or move out of the way of the oncoming Chouji.

Chouji barreled over the immobilized enemies in his path knocking them down as they fell like Dominos before his girth. He soon made his way to the front and ran over the one carrying the box flattening him like a pancake and the box went flying.

Kiba caught it and leapt on the transformed Akamaru's shoulders and the two began running outpacing the pursuing Sound Nins. "HaHa!" Kiba shouted with a laugh. "You'll never get us now!" He claimed as they had it.

Raiga having enough of this fired a bolt of lightning from his sword hitting a tube and shattered it spilling the contents out in front of them. Kiba's eyes widened when he saw that as there wasn't time to get out of the way as they ran across it.

"Crud!" He shouted as Akamaru lost his footing on the floor and slip and Akamaru fell to the ground and Kiba lost a hold of the box and it went through the air.

The box landed in Raiga's hand as he reached out and caught it.

"We win!" Raiga shouted as he held a metal ball in one hand. He threw it into the air and it exploded sending a loud blinding flash throughout the room.

"AAAHHHH!" The group shouted as it blinded them for several moments. When the light had faded and they had managed to somewhat regain their sight they looked and saw that they had disappeared with The Mask.

"Troublesome!" Shikamaru shouted wiping his eyes as they were long gone.

At Otogakure, Raiga handed the Box containing the Half of the Mask of Honda to Kabuto who presented it to Orochimaru.

"Good, I could not let this fall into Konoha's hands." The Snake Sannin said looking at it as he needed to find the other half. "Once I locate the other half I shall regain the use of my arms." He said as he once he had the Mask he'd be back at full power again and would be able to this time destroy Konoha.

"Kabuto, Chose the best men to find the other half and see to it that it's brought to me." He ordered the Medic. "And begin work on your new experiment." He said to him.

"At once Orochimaru-sama." Kabuto said bowing his head.

Orochimaru looked back at the Halve of the mask and grinned showing his fangs.

The next morning…

"Kimimaro, Tayuya its time you repay your debt to Konoha." Tsunade said as the two were seated in her office before her. "I have a task for the both of you." She said as Naruto was also seated there and looking on as well.

"I want you two to go to and deal with the reports of-" She began to say when suddenly the door burst open and Shizune came in. "Shizune I'm in the middle of something." She said hiding her irritation.

"Lady Tsunade something terrible has happened, it's about Sakura Haruno." She said alarming Tsunade.

"What?!" Naruto said in shock standing up. "What do you mean? What's going on here!" He shouted anger in his eyes.

"Naruto calm down," The Godaime said to him seeing get all riled up. What's happened Shizune." Tsunade ordered her wondering where she got that idea.

"One of the vials containing his disease is gone." She said referring to Kimimaro.

"What does that have to do with Sakura?" Tsunade asked.

"She…" Shizune took a few deep breaths as if finding it difficult to say her next words as if she didn't want to say them but had no choice. "She took it. Evidence has shown that she took it and gave it to a Sound Ninja. She's a traitor." Shizune stated.
