Four months of rigorous training had forged Nikki into a formidable shinobi, her Sharingan spinning with newfound power alongside Team 7. But peace shattered during the Chūnin Exams. Orochimaru’s serpentine shadow loomed, pressing a dark, jagged Cursed Seal onto Nikki’s skin. The mark burned like liquid fire, searing into her flesh and soul. Nikki collapsed, a sharp hiss escaping her lips as agony wracked her body. Kakashi’s lazy demeanor vanished instantly. His visible eye narrowed, sharingan activated, as he rushed to her side, his gaze shifting from concern for Nikki to a lethal glare fixed on the Snake Sannin.
