When danger struck, Karura and Pakura chose not to attack Black Zetsu. Instead, they dodged.
Avoiding danger was only instinct.
But it also showed that Rasa was not particularly well liked.
After leaping clear, Karura and Pakura did not dare attack Black Zetsu recklessly.
From watching the fight, they both knew he was far stronger than they were.

Uchiha Yin had not disliked Rasa in the original
