It's been roughly three years since Y/N L/N left the village with a complete stranger. Since then Karin and the others continued to train and hope that one day, that he will come back to the village. Naruto doesn't know what happened after the day that he left as the last thing he knows is that Y/N is training to get far stronger than him. The two of them made a vow that the next time they meet, they will have a sparring match to see which of the two of them is stronger. Karin has trained hard over these three years as he trained under Tsunade alongside Sakura. Not only under her, but she has also been training under Zabuza as well in order to become more proficient with a sword.
