As Kuroto made his way towards Karin, he couldn't help but think, 'I hope the remaining Visual Prowess and Chakra supply is enough for the evolution.'
From a distance, he could see that the medical equipment connected to her body was either broken, or destroyed, so getting real-time accurate data of her body would be a little difficult.
Be that as it may, he noticed that Karin's breathing seemed to have returned to normal, and different from a while ago, she is taking deep, and gentle breaths. Moreover, the 'Type II Biological Armour' has also exited the 'Overload Mode' midway, which means her life is no longer in danger.
At the same time, all the Yin-Yang chakra and the power of 'Creation of All Things' that was overflowing out of her body had also stopped and slowly returned back to her body, this is another good news.
Noting these details, Kuroto had calmed down and quickened his pace.
As soon as he arrived near the stone bed, the first thing Kuroto did–after checking Karin's physical status including her heart rate, and her pulse rate–was to open her rightly shut eyelids and check the status of the pair of eyes in her eye sockets. Although the pair of eyes were still Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, the pattern on it had become rather complex, and there were obvious signs telling him that it was close to evolving.
This scene reminded Kuroto of the time when Danzo Danzo's pair of Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan was close to evolving into the Rinnegan.
'Is there a need for a trigger for the evolution, something that would impact her emotionally?' he wondered looking at the sleepy Karin. Based on his memory of the cannon, Hagoromo awakened his Rinnegan under emotional stimulation by the death of his brother. 'I wonder…'
While Kuroto was a little distracted, the pattern inside Karin's eye became more and more distorted, and soon straight lines of lilac color started to appear in them.
Noting this change, Kuroto froze, 'It seems there is no need for emotional stimulation.'
It wasn't just Karin's eyes that were changing, even her body seemed to be changing little by little, and the presence of Yin-Yang chakra was soaring in her body.
As Kuroto patiently watched everything, suddenly, an unexpected change occurred. Karin's body once started to float into the air. The good thing is, this time it isn't followed by the manifestation of Susano'o or anything… rather… Karin's floating body is enveloped by a pillar of lilac chakra.
At the same time, 'Type II Biological Armour' once again entered the 'Overload Mode'.
Although Kuroto appeared a little worried about these sudden changes, since he did not feel any danger, he decided to step back a little and decided to not take any action. He did not plan to do anything that would interfere with the changes in Karin's body.
Karin's body is undergoing qualitative changes, this is the key step for the evolution of Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan into the Rinnegan. This is also the step that would determine success and failure.
His interference wouldn't help, he just hopes that Karin can succeed.
As he continued to wait, he was able to feel the indescribable chakra emanating from her body.
Suddenly, Karin–who had been in a coma for so long–regained consciousness, "Huh? Where… where am I? Kuroto-sama?" Initially panicked because of being at an unknown location, but as she noticed Kuroto standing not far away, she calmed down and looked at him.
"It appears that you have regained consciousness… Currently, you are–" Midway through the explanation, Kuroto stopped as if the cat caught his tongue.
The reason for his silence is none other than Karin floating in the air, her eyes… her eyes–that have been shut for the past few months–have finally opened, and what's surprising is that there is no scarlet or black in them… rather, it's a mysterious and powerful lilac. It's the color of, "Rinnegan!"
Kuroto was stunned, and as he gazed at the pair of lilac eyes an unreal feeling surged in his heart.
It took him years to create this pair of Rinnegan, and a lot of money, time, and effort was spent, despite all the work he had put in, Kuroto was mentally prepared to accept the failure–because of the loss of visual prowess a while ago when he destroyed the two Susano'o.
Unexpectedly, the Rinnegan still appeared, and its birth was so plain and normal. There was nothing noteworthy except for the pillar lilac of chakra that had enveloped Karin.
After confirming again and again that the pair of eyes in Karin's eye socket is indeed Rinnegan, Kuroto exclaimed in excitement, "I… I created a pair of Rinnegan!"
He is excited not only because he is the creator of the third pair of Rinnegan, but also because with Rinnegan in his hand–metaphorically–he will have another chance of undergoing the Kekkei Genkai Absorption Ritual should he fail in his first attempt.
Looking at Kuroto's excited face, Karin was happy and realized that she had opened her eyes, just as she was about to speak something, the pillar of chakra surrounding her vanished and she fell on the stone bed, "Ouch!"
She rubbed her head slightly, and looked around in amazement, "Kuroto-sama… I can once again see things… and this time… it's very clear… too much clear in fact."
Kuroto nodded, "I know…" and instructed as he approached Karin, "For now don't do anything, just lay down on the stone bed, and let me take a good look."
Following Kuroto's instruction, Karin lay down on the stone bed and opened her eyes so that Kuroto could clearly see her eyes.
After studying the pair of eyes in Karin's eye sockets. Kuroto nodded, "This is the real deal."
Although the pair of Rinnegan appears a little weaker compared to Nagato's Rinnegan, this is entirely normal.
After all, this pair of Rinnegan has just been born, and Karin is too young. Moreover, Kuroto also damaged its Visual Prowess by destroying the two Susano'o with his Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion, despite these things, the fact that it was successfully born is already a miracle in itself, so why care about the fact that it is not as powerful as Nagato's at this point?
Given enough time and nourishment, it will reach that level.
With such a thought in his mind, Kuroto nodded to himself as he looked at Karin and asked, "How do you feel?"
Karin spoke in a tired voice, "I can see things much more clearly… it's just that seeing too much hurts my head and it gets dizzy."
Kuroto nodded, "Headache and dizziness are normal, don't worry too much. You will have to learn and adapt."
Rinnegan puts a lot of burden on its users. So, the user needs to be mentally and physically strong enough, otherwise, using Rinnegan will be extremely burdensome for them.
Nagato is a prime example. His body was sucked dry with each use of Rinnegan. If not for the fact that Uchiha Madara had sealed the Rinnegan after transplanting it to Nagato, the kid might have instantly died.
Compared to Nagato, Karin is much better, but be that as it may, she is still too young, and it will take some time for her to adapt.
As per Kuroto's expectations, Karin should be able to effortlessly use the power of Rinnegan by the time she becomes an adult, but before that, she will have to carefully use the power of Rinnegan, otherwise, she too will become like the shriveled Nagato.
Of course, Karin has the support of 'Type II Biological Armour', so long as she wears that armor, she should be fine for the most part.

Otogakure
'Kuchiyose: Edo Tensei!'
As soon as the name of the Jutsu was called, two Fuin formulas engraved on the ground lit up in a colour of green and blue. As the glow intensified, two coffins marked with 'Sho' and 'Ni' rose from the ground.
Click! Click!
As the lids of Coffins opened, two corpses–wearing red and blue Shinobi Armour from the Warring States Era–were revealed, these two are none other than the Shodaime Hokage Senju Hashirama, and Nidaime Hokage Senju Tobirama who have been dead for decades but have been returning to the world of living again and again because of being summoned through the Edo Tensei Jutsu.
At this time, a figure covered in a black cloak walked out of the darkness and stood in front of the two Coffins.
As he removed the hood of his black cloak, his appearance became clear. This person is none other than Yakushi Kabuto–who disappeared from Konohagakure not long ago, it seems he has returned to Otogakure and has been mastering the 'Edo Tensei Jutsu'.
And from the looks of it, he has reached a considerable level of mastery in this Jutsu as he was able to summon the Shodaime Hokage and Nidaime Hokage of Konoha.
Walking in front of the two Coffins, Kabuto looked at the two Edo Tensei with a smile, "Finally mastered it!"
With a content expression, Kabuto released the Summon and allowed both coffins to sink back into the ground.
Poof! Poof!
With that done, Kabuto turned around and walked towards another chamber, hidden deep inside the underground laboratory.
…
Kabuto had a solemn expression as he walked inside the secret chamber. He glanced at the Kumogakure shinobi–bound by chains and hanging upside down.
"It's time!" he muttered and cut the chains that bound the man, and allowed him to fall on the floor. On the floor, a series of Fuin symbols much similar to the ones outside were engraved. These Fuin symbols seem to be making a ritual circle, and from the looks of it, the Kumo Shinobi is meant to be sacrificed while performing the ritual.
Glancing at the terrified Kumogakure shinobi as the man begged for mercy, "Please… just kill me… I beg you!"
Kabuto ignored the man's plea for death and started to weave the hand signs, 'Kuchiyose: Edo Tensei!'
As the hand signs were completed, the Fuin symbols started to emit an ominous glow.
"Aaahhhhhh!"
Immediately, the Kumo shinobi–wrapped in chains–screamed in pain and agony as the whispers of dead resounded through the hall.
Unperturbed by the whispers of the dead, Kabuto watched as the soul of the Kumo shinobi was sucked out from his body by some unnatural force, and an uncountable number of talisman paper appeared from the ritual circle as they started to wrap his body from head to toe. In less than a second, the man had become a human chrysalis.
By the time everything subsided, only a large pupa-shaped being–wrapped in talisman paper–was left before Kabuto.
'What? This is different.' Thought Kabuto as he stepped forward and started to remove the talisman papers. He was not surprised when he noticed that the person wrapped inside the talisman paper was the same Kumogakure Shinobi, the only difference was that the man is now dead as his soul has been sucked out, however, there is a problem, "Why did it fail this time?"
Yes, the Jutsu had failed! The soul of the shinobi was drained, however, the person Kabuto wanted to summon did not come, 'This wasn't supposed to happen!'
Kabuto frowned, then carefully checked the entire process of summoning the dead. After he had repeatedly confirmed that he did not make any mistake, Kabuto made a wild guess to explain his failure. And thinking of this reason, Kabuto showed an unnatural gleam of joy on his face, "It seems Orochimaru-sama is not dead!"
The person he was trying to bring back to the world of living is none other than Orochimaru.
After losing contact with Orochimaru, Kabuto became anxious, fearful, and desperate, it was as if he had lost his path and the meaning behind his existence.
He had to do something and find Orochimaru, and that's what he did. Kabuto disobeyed Orochimaru's order of monitoring Naruto and Sasuke in the Konoha Ninja Academy and made his way to the Land of Sound. After quietly returning, Kabuto mobilized the entire force of Otogakure to search for any trace of Orochimaru throughout the Shinobi World.
However, their search was for nought as they couldn't find the slightest clues of where Orochimaru is and what happened to him. And this is a big problem. It must be understood that except for a very few people, there is hardly anyone in the Shinobi World who can make Orochimaru disappear so silently and so secretly, 'it's either Akatsuki, Amatsukami or Danzo!'
There has been no news from Orochimaru for so long, he must have had an unlucky encounter with either of those three powerhouses.
"If Orochimaru-sama was either captured or sealed by either of those three powerhouses, rescuing him would be difficult… I must find a way!" thought Kabuto as he made up his mind.
But of course, confronting either of these three powerhouses is not something he can do at the moment considering his mediocre strength.
"I… no… we must get stronger." Muttered Kabuto as left the Underground laboratory and summoned the Sound Four.
…
Looking at Tenzō, Kimimaro, Haku, and Jūgo one by one, Kabuto ordered, "Stop the search for Orochimaru-sama."
Kimimaro questioned with a frowned expression, "Why?"
Kabuto immediately explained the ins and outs of the matter, "I think I have an idea of what happened to Orochimaru-sama. Although he is not dead, he is not in a very good state either. He was either captured… or sealed by a difficult enemy… it must be someone from Akatsuki, Amatsukami, or Danzo."
Tenzō was taken aback, "What?! Kabuto-san… you aren't joking, right?"
These names hold a lot of weight in the Shinobi World, and their small Otogakure doesn't have enough power or resources to fight these people. Let alone Akatsuki and Amatsukami, just fighting Danzo might result in the annihilation of Otogakure!
The other three had similar thoughts.
Knowing the doubts of the Sound Four, Kabuto spoke, "I know… if we want to rescue Orochimaru-sama, we must have sufficient strength so that we can negotiate with these powerhouses. Therefore, I want the four of you to put your efforts into strengthening yourselves."
The Sound Four nodded, "We understand." There is still a problem, "But… how do we do that?"
Kabuto took out four scrolls from his shinobi bag and handed one to each of the Sound Four as he explained, "Orochimaru-sama had multiple secret laboratories… out of those, four laboratories were top secret. I want each of you to go to one of these laboratories and try to find something there… Orochimaru carried out extensive research on the four of you… it is time to use the results of that research. We must inherit the results of Orochimaru-sama's research and strengthen ourselves… only then we will have the qualification to negotiate with those powerful enemies."
Everyone nodded and received the scrolls handed by Kabuto.
Holding the scroll of the North laboratory, Kimimaro looked at Kabuto and asked, "And what about you? What are you going to do?"
"Me?" muttered Kabuto as he adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and chuckled, "I must go somewhere."
Although Kabuto was smiling, the sound four noticed Kabuto's determination to die.
Haku was worried for Kabuto and looked at the others. Kimimaro and Jūgo remained silent.
Tenzō–the oldest of four–asked after a while of hesitation, "Where are you going Kabuto-san?"
"You don't have to be concerned about it." Spoke Kabuto as he turned around and disappeared into the forest.
'This time I am ready to face death!'
