Karenbana’s Background

Karenbana and her teammates, Ishidate and Kongo, are introduced as part of a group of mercenaries hired by Shabadaba to carry out his plans to secure the throne.

Karenbana's team is tasked with attacking Team 7, which includes Naruto, Sakura, Sasuke, and Kakashi. This confrontation occurs under Shabadaba's orders to hinder Team 7's efforts and protect Shabadaba's interests.

One of the main objectives of Karenbana's team is to assassinate Michiru Tsuki, the heir to the throne. They are sent to target Michiru, Hikaru, and Team 7 as they try to escape from danger and fulfill their mission.

Karenbana engages in a battle with Sakura Haruno, one of the members of Team 7. This confrontation showcases Karenbana's unique abilities, including her poison-based genjutsu and her combat skills. However, Sakura eventually outsmarts Karenbana and defeats her by using her surroundings and listening to her movements.

Sakura's strategy leads to Karenbana's demise as her chakra-infused punch sends Karenbana crashing into a wall, resulting in her death.

Karenbana’s Personality

Karenbana used to act mean and was very sure of herself. She seemed like a kid even though she was really an adult, aged 22. When she told Sakura her actual age, Sakura was shocked.

Karenbana’s Appearance

Karenbana actually had short brown hair, but she used to wear a white color hair wig and wore a brown skirt. She wore a pink long sleeve shirt and over that wore a white coat. She also wore gloves and had pink eyes alongside applied pink lipstick.

Karenbana’s Abilities

Karenbana had a unique poison that she used to slow down her enemies' reactions. This allowed her to dodge their attacks easily and counter with a sharp knife. She used this poison in a tricky technique that created fake flower petals around her enemies.

She would blend into these petals, making it harder for them to see her. This way, she could surprise them with her attacks.

Second, she could hide herself using the Camouflage Technique. However, her use of strong perfume actually gave away her location, which was a bit ironic. Lastly, when she fought against Sakura, she showed impressive combat skills.

She could move really fast and attacked with precision. Her strength was evident when she even made a dent in the floor during a clash with Sakura.
