*Yume's POV*

"Bookish types like me aren't used to getting stared at" Kabuto said as he hid his face with his cloak's hood

"Countermeasures for Genjutsu, huh?" Sasuke muttered

"Judging from their movements, those snakes can sense exactly what we're doing" Itachi said

"Snakes perceive their surroundings through body heat and smell through their tongues" Sasuke stated

"You've studied a lot! You're like a snake expert now" I stated back

"Of course I did. In order to take down Orochimaru!" Sasuke smirked

"However you can't beat me just by being a snake expert. This is my field. Nature is on my side" Kabuto said

"Does this terrain give him an advantage? Be wary of traps, Sasuke, Yume" Itachi warned

"Traps? That's not what I meant" Kabuto said then his snakes attacked and we all dodged by jumping backwards. Itachi got out his Susano'o and grabbed a bunch of snakes as me and Sasuke sliced them in half with our own Susano'os 

"Don't get too violent, Sasuke, Yume! Remember, I told you not to kill him!" Itachi shouted 

"My bad" I

"It seems he acquired Orochimaru's power. He won't die so easily!" Sasuke stated then charged at Kabuto as Itachi pulled the rest of the snakes back

"Sasuke!" I yelled

"The hood!" he shouted then grabbed Kabuto's hood open with his Susano'o, but it wasn't Kabuto. Instead, it was just a bunch of snakes. They jumped at Itachi so I immediately sliced them but one escaped and slithered down a pole. Sasuke threw his sword at it and sliced it's tail horizontally.

"You're taking this shyness thing too far. First hide your face now your entire body? Did you just molt to make a getaway?" Sasuke asked

"Sasuke, you underestimate me" Kabuto's voice said

"Of course, if you consider this hiding" Sasuke said after activating his Mangekyou Sharingan  

"Sasuke, watch out! There's chakra everywhere...it's hard to tell which one's the real one" Itachi warned then the snake in his hand started to liquify 

"It's the ability to transformed one's flesh into liquid. To detach and separate using one's own life substance. That's why it looks like a shedding. It's the technique of the Hozuki clan. You know him right? Suigetsu. And I have the ability to heal quickly. It was a technique of a woman from the Uzumaki clan...Karin"

"Karin's from the Uzumaki clan?" Sasuke asked

"Yes, one of the Uzumaki clan traits is that they have a unique red hair color. And their life force is as tenacious as a cockroach's. You must be thinking about the last person on your team. or is he no longer your comrade?" 

"So do you have Jugo's technique, too? Did Orochimaru give you a curse mark?" Sasuke asked

"No! That is just a temporary boost. This memento is something I've cultivated myself...at Ryuchi Cave!"

"Ryuchi Cave?!" Itachi and I shouted in unison 

"Yes, I found it! A place as legendary as Mt. Myoboku, and the Shikkotsu Woods! I went there and trained under the guidance of the white snake sage. I did it!"

Sasuke aimed and shot an arrow at Kabuto who was coming out of a snake

"Sasuke, don't get impatient!" Itachi said

"My sensory skills are much better than before. Nature energy is my ally now" Kabuto said

'So he does have....'
