Summary
Title subject to change; reference to "Freedom in the Eyes of Another."The souls of Sakura, Sasuke and Naruto (respectively) became aware of their reincarnation cycle while they were Sakura, Sasuke and Naruto. Some of Sakura's personality and memories stick despite the cleansing between lives and lifetimes, giving Pepper a bit of a headstart with the whole ass-kicking business.(Without this, Pepper would have kicked just as much ass as Sakura before her-- and Mito before Sakura, and so on for the entirety of her soul's existence-- but. In all those lifetimes, she wasted a ridiculous amount of time figuring out who she was and how to kick ass and, even, whose ass to kick. This way is better.)
Note
I'm not sorry.

Pepper and Sakura are not quite one and the same.
Pepper is more than Sakura. Pepper is Sakura-and-then-some. Sakura plus the decades spent as Pepper.
“Pepper” is not necessarily more accurate—they were “Sakura” longer—but “Pepper” has recency.
It does not matter.
