Kankuro vs shino
Sasuke takes Karin and Suigetsu to go find Jugo in the North hideout. As when Sasuke went to recruit Karen, Suigetsu asks Sasuke why he wants to recruit Jugo. Jugo is known to be a blood thirst killing machine when the curse mark takes over. Apparently, Sasuke seems some advantage in having Jugo's strength on his side. Or perhaps it's the fact that Jugo is the originator of the curse mark.
Suigetsu and Karin are still reluctant to admit that they're following Sasuke of their own will. They both insist that they have other plans and that following along with Sasuke somehow will help them to reach their goals. It seems pretty obvious that they will stick with him til the end though.
They reach the North hideout to find that all of the guards have been slain and Orochimaru's test subjects have escaped. Despite their escape, the test subjects seem to be lingering around, taking over the hideout. However, Jugo is still locked up inside. Apparently, all of Orochimaru's other test subjects are afraid of him.
