Tagorihime

Biodata

Background

Tagorihime serves the White Snake Sage of Ryūchi Cave. When the Sage foresaw Orochimaru being severely injured by Akatsuki and forced to use Reanimation Jutsu, she dispatched Tagorihime to warn him to avoid Sasori and Deidara. Tagorihime questioned why she, rather than Manda, had been chosen for the task and expressed disbelief that Orochimaru could be endangered despite his Living Corpse Reincarnation 84 85.

She openly questioned the White Snake Sage's decision to intervene in Orochimaru's fate, noting that Ryūchi Cave had previously positioned itself as an observer. The Sage explained that the warning would preserve Orochimaru's destined course, but also stated that he would no longer serve as Ryūchi Cave's spokesperson afterward 85.

Naruto later recognized the warning to Orochimaru as evidence that the White Snake Sage could foresee the future, comparing Ryūchi Cave's actions to Mount Myōboku's manipulation of Jiraiya's path 170.
