Lmao. That is obviously Karin's DNA. Obviously isn't Sasuke since there's no way they'd have the umbilical cord from when he was born. It being Sarada's is reaching, cause there'd literally be no reason for Karin to have it, not to mention how in the hell would she get it?
-No records of Sarada's birth in Konoha.
-Nobody in the village witnessed her birth.
-Not even Naruto witnessed her birth her saw that she was pregnant since the DNA test is enough to easily convince him. Then there's the "There's no way I could've known!" bit.
Unless Sakura left the village for 9 months and came back with a kid, then it's clear what happened here.
The question of who Sarada's mother is has been answered. What we should be wondering now is what's up with her conception?

SS being canon has nothing to do with Sarada's parentage. Sasuke and Sakura can still be a couple despite Sakura not being the biological mother.

May I ask how Karin even got her hands on Sasuke's umbilical cord from when he was born? There is no rational explanation for it, as it makes no sense. I am sorry, but I vehemently disagree with this theory. The only possible scenario I can think of that would cause the message we received in this chapter of Karin being the true mother of Salad to be voided, is if the umbilical cord was that of Salad's herself, and that can be used to explain the "perfect match".(You only get 50% of your DNA from your parents, not a 100%).
However, even that possibility has close to 0% chance of happening. Why? There must have been an ironclad reason for Sakura having that conversation with Shin about "Genes and Evolution", and a nerve being struck in her when Shin said that "parenting being nothing more than passing on your genes to your offspring". That was obviously a deliberate move by Kishi to show that Sakura was not the true biological mother of the girl she raised, Salad. Thus, even sans the "DNA test", I'm absolutely certain that Sakura is not the true mother of the child. Then there's Naruto getting convinced immediately after hearing about the results. If he had seen Sakura pregnant with his own eyes, then he would have questioned the veracity of the results for sure. This only further ratifies the conclusion of Sakura not being the true mother of Salad. Overall, Karin may not be the mother and this may well be a red herring, but I believe the probability of that being the case is slim to none.

I wouldn't be entirely conclusive with this just yet, but for now, that's all we have to go by. It's possible that it's a red herring but you can't deny the obvious resemblance between Karin and Sarada.
No one in the thread mentioned Sasuke's umbilical cord. :/ The op only states that if it was an umbilical cord it could have been Salad's. And if it was something else (not an umbilical cord) it could have been Sasuke's. :|
It's just a theory lol. I'd prefer if she's Karin's kid, I just don't see Kishi doing the SS fandom like this when it's the largest het pairing fandom in Japan.

How would they have Sarada's umbilical cord? There's no records of her birth in Konoha at all. If her umbilical cord was in Orochimaru's hideout (Karin's area even more so) that lends even more credence to what we just found out. It's an entirely plausible outcome that Kishi is just trolling the entire fan base, but based on what we just learned and the fact that there was an obvious hint by him (Sakura saying that it's not all about genes when talking to Shin about parenting); there's probably going to be some grand lesson about family and blood being more than just passing on genes and that Sarada will acknowledge Sakura as her mother because she raised; regardless of her lineage.
I find it oddly convenient that Sasuke, Sakura and Karin are never around to confirm any of this. Karin was obsessed with Sasuke. I wouldn't be surprised if she had either Sasuke's or Sarada's things stored around. It's also possible that Karin was the one who delivered Sarada. Naruto's reaction made it clear that Sakura wasn't in Konoha at the time of Sarada's birth so if Sakura was outside of Konoha the closest person who could deliver the baby (and who Sasuke has access to) would be Karin. Either way Suigetsu is the last person you'd want doing your DNA test. If Kishi had picked anyone else to do the test it'd be more believable but he didn't. He chose the least reliable person. I think this is all a red herring. It'll just force Sasuke to explain what really happened.

Ah, that was my mistake in the wording. I meant to say that it is certain that it was an umbilical cord that was tested, and that the chances of it being something else is close to zero. Nevertheless, my overall point that I was trying to make still stands because of the overwhelming evidence I showed in the second paragraph, The chances of Karin not being the mother is close to 0 at the moment.

Karin still continued loving Sasuke and Taka could have been in contact with Sasuke in earlier years , they feared Sarada's safety so she was born in a secluded area, etc. Karin keeps the umbilical cord because it's from Sasuke's child.
^This is quite a stretch. I'm just saying nothing is set in stone yet. That's the point of the thread.
But if Karin is her mom 100% and Sakura/Sasuke/Karin provide and explanation for it- then I'll like that even more.
Underlined is likely.

For the first part; that would imply that Sakura somehow just left the village for 9 months while pregnant to have her and not have Naruto or anyone else notice. But it's just head canon here for now. We'll know more in the coming chapters.
I would like Karin to be the mom; not that I really care but it just makes more sense and I never liked SS to begin with (it doesn't invalidate the pairing at all but it does ruin the entire point of it).
And yeah, the underlined is basically Kishimoto in a nutshell.
Also, it is likely Sasuke was in contact with Taka on his "mission" given he was roaming and the greeting he got from Suigetsu and Jugo. It wasn't some "Oh my Sasuke, I haven't seen you in 10 years!" It looked a lot more nonchalant.

Denying Manga Facts?? Deny all you want. But you can't change reality.
Stay salty. Cos there is no way for those fodder genes to get over there at oro's hideout.

I want Sarada to be Karin's kid. I'll be happy if this is further confirmed, not "salty".
This thread was just to bring up that this isn't over until everything is said and done.
