It was a ninja clan that had lost its former importance, and some of its members joined Orochimaru hoping to restore its glory. It should not be mixed up with other Fūma in the story: the manga mentions a different Fūma clan, known for its large four-bladed shuriken and distantly related to the Uchiha, and they are not the same branch.","lvl":0,"ep":"naruto-137","pos":238},{"h":"Sasame and her cousin Arashi","t":"Naruto and Sakura defend Sasame, a wounded kunoichi of the clan, from some Sound ninja. She is looking for her cousin Arashi, who joined Orochimaru. Desperate, Sasame drugs the group to hand them over in exchange for seeing him, but regrets it on learning they plan to kill them. Naruto and the others were only pretending to sleep, and the Sound's Fūma end up fleeing. Afterward Sasame guides them to Orochimaru's hideout. Her bond with Arashi is what drives the whole arc.","lvl":0,"ep":"naruto-139","pos":238},{"h":"The hideout and the tricks","t":"In the hideout, the Sound's Fūma use traps and disguises. Kabuto breaks Sakura by telling her Sasuke is dead, and Naruto beats him with the Rasengan, but is left bound to him by chakra threads that tie their hearts together. Sasame helps cut them, and then the trick is revealed: that Kabuto was Kagerō, another Fūma in disguise, and the Orochimaru they saw was really Arashi. The disguises show how Orochimaru used the Fūma as pawns.","lvl":0,"ep":"naruto-140","pos":238},{"h":"Arashi's end","t":"Arashi, turned into a monster by Orochimaru's experiments, corners Naruto, and Sakura steps in to protect Sasame. Before he is buried under the hideout, Arashi tells them Sasuke is still alive. That closes Sasame's search, and Orochimaru's promise of glory comes to nothing. The arc leaves one important consequence for canon: back in Konoha, Sakura asks Tsunade to become her student.","lvl":0,"ep":"naruto-141","pos":238}],"characters":["sasame","arashi"],"related":["chakra"],"reference":"Official series and chapter guides as reading context.
