New Era

Mujina Bandits Arc

When Benga learned of an escape attempt by Team 7 and Kokuri, using his newfound position as prison master, he summoned the castle's ninken and hunted down the escapees. The dog quickly proved a dangerous foe. Sarada Uchiha however took advantage of the build-up in water from the rain in the underground caves, breaking down the walls to make the water rush in and rush the dog away, forcing it to disperse.
