These two crows were the ones Kuroto had sent to the current Mizukage and the current Kazekage before he sneaked out of Konoha.
Since the current Mizukage Karatachi Yagura and the current Kazekage Pakura were his subordinates, then the secret archives of the two great shinobi villages were naturally the databases that Amatsukami would use.
For that, Kuroto asked both Kage to send him some documents that he needed to learn.
From Sunagakure, Kuroto requested a Scroll detailing the Magnet Element and the Scorched Element. These two Kekkei Genkai involved Wind as an element, therefore, Kuroto requested this information.
On the other hand, from Kirigakure, Kuroto requested information about the Kaguya Clan.
After the extermination of the Kaguya clan, a large number of ancient scrolls and a lot of information detailing the origins of the Kaguya Clan were seized by Kirigakure.
Kuroto of course, read many of these documents before when he lived in Kirigakure, but he did not read them all because of his lack of time, and even the ones he read, Kuroto did not pay much attention to him as at that time, Kuroto focused more on learning a lot of Jutsu for his Suijin Clone.
And now he created the Wind Clone using the genes of the Kaguya Clan, so Kuroto needed to consider more things, and studied the Kaguya Clan in more detail. At the same time, there was also an interest in finding information about the relationship of the Kaguya Clan with the Hyuga Clan.
So carrying the two scrolls, Kuroto came to his study, and after putting aside the two storage scrolls, Kuroto focused his attention on the two letters sent to him by the two Kage.
After opening the letter sent to him by Yagura, Kuroto began to read.
First, Yagura describes the latest changes in Kirigakure, the progress of finding and retrieving the Seven Lost Swords, and also the progress of hunting nuke-nin Kirigakure. At the same time, he also detailed the recent trainees who had been recruited to the Seven Swordsmen Ninja of the Mist. Of all the trainees, two trainees, namely Ringo Ameyuri and Hozuki Mangetsu were quite good and considered to be a match for Kiba and Hiramekarei.
There were many more such details, but Kuroto did not pay much attention to it and started reading quickly to make sure she got the basic gist of the Kirigakure situation, as she went further, and started reading quickly to make sure she got the basic gist of the situation, suddenly his expression changed as a certain piece of unexpected information caught his attention.
Yagura has stated that recently, the Toad Sannin Jiraiya personally went to Kirigakure, of course, his visit was so secret that almost no one knew of it, but more than his visit, it was, the purpose of his visit was what surprised Kuroto.
Jiraiya went to Kirigakure representing Sandaime Hokage, and the purpose of his visit was to invite Yondaime Mizukage Karatachi Yagura to the third Gokage Summit.
The reason Yagura wrote this letter to Kuroto was to ask if she should participate in the third Gokage Summit to be held secretly in Konoha.
Kuroto was surprised by such information, and muttered to himself with a doubtful expression, “The village will hold a Gokage Secret Meeting? I don't receive any news about it. ”
Kuroto hesitated, and to dispel her doubts, she quickly opened the letter that Pakura had sent to her.
Similar to Yagura, Pakura first detailed the latest changes in Sunagakure, which Kuroto had noticed only slightly. Then there was news of his recent actions, which was to adopt an 8-year-old boy named Itsuki as his son, which made Kuroto furrow her brows because she did not expect to hear such information.
'The fact, that Pakura adopted this boy Itsuki definitely means she has something extraordinary.' Kuroto thought, and his doubts were soon answered because Pakura then explained that this boy named Itsuki seemed to be able to use the Kekkei Genkai Magnet Element.
"Huh? This is unexpected. If I recall correctly, no boy could have used the Magnet Element at this moment in Sunagakure. Only Gaara, who could control the Sand, and years after the fourth Great Shinobi War, the boy named Shinki was adopted by Gaara, and the boy Shinki could also use the Magnet Element, too, but that's another problem, the important thing now is, where did this kid come from?” muttered Kuroto with a doubtful expression.
Ever since Pakura, Godaime Kazekage had adopted her, so it was clear she was going to check her background, which obviously did not include any relationship with the Akatsuki spy hiding in Sunagakure, therefore, it was, Kuroto isn't too worried that she's becoming a spy or what, what Kuroto is worried about is the fact that this kid isn't in the canon at all, but here he is.
“What is the logical reason why he did not appear in the canon but was present here?” muttered Kuroto while thinking to himself, and there was one theory that seemed to make sense, at Canon, this kid might die while doing some missions or, uh, at some point, he probably died during one of Gaara's rampages.
Gaara's rampage obviously killed many Sunagakure people, and it is not strange that one of his rampages also killed this child named Itsuki before he had time to awaken the Magnet Element.
But because, Gaara had been taken by Kuroto, and because one of the rampages was also stopped by Kuroto and Shisui, so it was quite reasonable that this child survived and then awakened the Magnet Element.
“It seems possible, but I guess I still have to be careful, the appearance of unknown elements is clearly the work of butterfly wings, the, so it wouldn't be surprising if more of such elements emerged over time. So, it looks like I should be more careful.” After reaching this conclusion, Kuroto quickly went through the other information, before finally reaching the part she wanted to read.
And as he had expected, Sunagakure also received an invitation to the third Gokage Summit to be held secretly in Konoha. The one who passed this information to Pakura was none other than Elder Chiyo and Elder Ebizo who had just returned to Sunagakure after the close of the alliance ceremony.
After reading this information, Kuroto put the letter aside and thought, 'So, Sandaime-sama really intends to hold the Gokage Summit secretly in Konoha? And he had decided not to tell Anbu about such news, I mean it was not surprising given how much of a serious blow the tri-Alliance suffered against Akatsuki at the Summit War in Amegakure, he said, but still…'
Kuroto was truly relieved that he had Mizukage and Kazekage as his subordinates, otherwise he might never have known this news.
At the same time, Kuroto was also able to understand Sandaime-sama's thoughts. The failure of the tri-Alliance consisting of shinobi from Konoha, Suna, and Kumo against Akatsuki, which even resulted in the capture of Ni'i Yugito, and the death of Yondaime Kazekage. Later the revelation of Yondaime Mizukage being secretly controlled like a puppet by Akatsuki, has become a common understanding that Akatsuki's threat is too great, at the same time, to be aware of, no one knows who might be Akatsuki's spy.
So, Sandaime didn't seem to want to take the risk.
This was why, the Gokage Summit that was once held openly in the past could only be done in secret at this time for the safety of the Gokage, and the five Great Shinobi Villages.
After all, if Akatsuki was aware of the news of the Gokage Summit, and also knew the location of the Gokage Summit being held, there was no guarantee that they would not take advantage of it. Either they can directly attack the location of the Gokage Summit which will result in Gokage's death, or they become hostages at the hands of Akatsuki, or, or, as a result, they become hostages at the hands of Akatsuki, Akatsuki can use their absence from their village as an advantage and attack the villages to capture Jinchuriki while simultaneously destroying the entire village.
Akatsuki certainly has powers, so it is clear that Gokage will be cautious against them.
“It looks like Sandaime hasn't sat idly lately.” Kuroto muttered, as he was very surprised by the political maneuvering Sandaime had done lately.
First, Sandaime drew a small Shinobi Village around it, including Kusagakure, Takigakure, Otogakure, and tied it to a Konoha train using the Alliance Ceremony held a few days ago. With these political maneuvers, the pressure on the Fire Nation's borders will be significantly reduced, allowing Konoha to shrink its power to be deployed in key locations.
Subsequently, Sandaime sent invitations to the other four great Shinobi Villages for the purpose of holding the Gokage Conference secretly.
Kuroto had to greatly admire the time Sandaime used.
From a general perspective, Sunagakure has formed an Alliance with Konoha and taking into account the fact that Sandaime Kazekage, and Yondaime Kazekage were killed at the hands of Akatsuki, the report said, so Sunagakure would definitely agree to participate in the Gokage Conference to find out how to deal with the Akatsuki Organization.
Then there is another fact that Ni'i Yugito Kumogakure is in Akatsuki's hands, whether he is alive or dead is not yet known, so the possibility of Kumogakure participating in the Gokage Summit is very high, if any, if any, Yondaime Raikage would definitely want revenge.
On Kirigakure's side, Yondaime Mizukage Karatachi had just gotten out of the control of the Akatsuki Organization, so his reputation had been severely harmed, at the same time, he had to bear the hatred towards the Akatsuki Organization for controlling it, so much so, and for what Akatsuki did to Kirigakure. . Therefore, it was very clear that Kirigakure would also agree to participate in the Gokage Summit.
Among the five great Shinobi Villages, four had a high chance of participating, and Tsuchikage Onoki should also be aware of this, he would be under tremendous pressure, he said, and will have no other choice but to agree to participate as well.
And to this end, neither the Anbu members, the Anbu Squad Captains, nor even the Anbu Commanders were informed of the news of this Gokage Summit. The fact that Anbu, Hokage's most trusted subordinate was not informed indicates the level of secrecy held by this Gokage Summit.
Kuroto of course did not mind, even he was quite happy to see this change.
Therefore, he immediately wrote a reply to Yagura and Pakura, instructing them to participate in the third Gokage Summit to be held secretly in Konoha, Indonesia, and after inserting the letters into the mouths of the two crows, he sent them to two villages.
After dealing with this matter, Kuroto placed his attention on the Kaguya Clan Scroll that Yagura sent to him as per Kuroto's instructions.
This scroll not only recorded the genealogy of the Kaguya Clan Family for over a millennium but also recorded the various secrets and Forbidden Jutsu of the Kaguya Clan. At the same time, many of these scrolls also recorded thousands of years of research, exploration, and understanding of the Kaguya Clan against their Kekkei Genkai Shikotsumyaku.
As he passed by, Kuroto immediately stopped at a certain part that made him curious, "Blood Exchange Ritual?"
According to Kaguya Clan research over thousands of years, they have found that the more talented a shinobi from their clan is, the more prone to premature death, and the more often he uses Shikotsumyaku, the shorter his life. range will.
Such a thing clearly made the elders of the Kaguya Clan frown deeply. Due to more than death in battle, their clan members would die from unnatural causes due to some kind of illness.
The unnatural cause of death due to some unknown disease came to be known as the Kaguya Clan Curse.
Determined to find the reason for the curse, the bodies of the dead were examined, and after much research and postulation, the Kaguya Clan came to find out the cause of this unnatural death.
They were surprised to find that their bodies contained a certain kind of Poison, and this 'Toxin' was the cause of their unnatural death.
And these 'Toxins' are actually born in their bones and then spread to all parts of the body, thus, rapidly spreading their effects throughout their bodies.
Their conjecture was only confirmed when they discovered that the more talented a shinobi was, and the more he used Shikotsumyaku, the higher the percentage of poison present in their body.
This also makes them understand if they do not use Shikotsumyaku, then they are unlikely to suffer from this unnatural disease, as the poison will not be born or spread throughout the body.
But Shikotsumyaku is the basis of the Kaguya Clan, the members of the Kaguya Clan rely heavily on this Kekkei Genkai of theirs. Using Shikotsumyaku was also their only option to survive through the chaotic years of the Warring States Era.
After finding this result, the Kaguya Clan did what any Clan would do in their situation, they blocked this news and forbade it from being revealed to anyone. Other than the Patriarch and a few elected elders, no one would know of this.
In order to have the time and opportunity to break through the Kaguya Clan's Curse, the members of the Kaguya Clan traveled from the Fire Nation where they once lived, and where conflicts often occurred to the Fatherland, a remote country with not so much conflict at the time.
Of course, they had not stopped their research all this time and dug up all their efforts to find a cure to break their curse.
Many inhumane experiments were carried out, there were many sacrifices not only from the Kaguya Clan but even other Shinobi Clans, even the non-shinobi and innocent commoners were also sacrificed to find a way to heal the Curse.
But unfortunately for them, they never found a cure that could overcome this curse permanently.
Although they discovered this method of spreading Poison throughout the body, it was clearly through their Blood Circulation system, which meant that blood was the carrier of Poison.
While keeping this in mind, the Kaguya Clan immediately reached the conclusion that as long as the blood was purified or altered; the volume of toxins in the body would be greatly reduced and the shinobi after the blood exchange would be able to live more lives than before.
This is a temporary solution and is very helpful in ensuring the survival of the clan. And a few decades later, the Kaguya Clan also discovered a herb that if refined in a certain way became a medicine, and used together with the 'Blood Exchange Ritual' would further enhance the effects of the Blood Exchange Ritual.
Now they can increase their survival rate significantly and are less prone to unnatural deaths, but the story does not end here.
Of course, the 'Blood Exchange Ritual' proved to be effective, but it was not without its own disadvantages. In addition to the normal issues related to Blood Infusion that one more problem had to face, one more problem began to appear. The new infused blood, since it did not belong to the Shinobi himself, would cause some drastic effects on some specific parts of the brain, turning the members of the Kaguya Clan, into savage, bloodthirsty, battle thirsty, and even more, and vicious from what they used to be.
Originally, the members of the Kaguya Clan did not have such a character, they were calm and peaceful people, just like the members of the Hyuga Clan, but 'poison' these and subsequent effects include treatments turning them over time into what they fear, and what causes their near-extinction.
But until the end, they had found no permanent solution to cure the Kaguya Clan Curse.
“It turns out that even after doing research for centuries, the Kaguya Clan was unable to find any solution, no wonder Orochimaru-sama, was unable to find any solution, who has less time and knowledge about the Kaguya Clan cannot solve the unknown disease Kimimaro.” Kuroto muttered in consciousness.
But after understanding this, Kuroto's expression turned sullen, she hurriedly left her study and went to the Incubation Room.
In the Incubation Room, two clones were cultivated in two Large Incubation Capsules (Nutrition Tank).
Although Kuroto obtained ten successful samples of cell fusion, Kuroto's current finances clearly did not allow him to cultivate ten clones at once, so he could only be satisfied with what he had. Therefore, Kuroto chose the two best samples, which looked the most active, and processed them into Clones.
And even if the Chakra Tenseigan was used to catalyze the cultivation process, the growth of the Clone would take at least a month, so the two Wind Clones currently inside the Great Incubation Capsule were only the size of a palm.
Staring at the two Clones, Kuroto muttered inwardly, "If the entire Kaguya Clan suffers from the Kaguya Clan's Curse, then I'm afraid even my Wind Clone will not survive."
The source of the Wind Clone cells came from Kimimaro, and Kimimaro seems to have started suffering from the curse of the Kaguya Clan, so that means traces of certain Poisons must be in the cells Kuroto collected.
And no matter how many times Kuroto filtered these cells, there was no guarantee that the cell would be washed away, so it was clear that his Wind Clone would also suffer from the Kaguya Clan Curse.
And according to the study, only the Blood Exchange ceremony can lower the volume of the toxin in the body. More important is that the blood must belong to the members of the Kaguya Clan, it must be of the same type and the person whose blood was used in the ritual must not suffer the Kaguya Clan Curse at the time of donating blood.
In other words, it must have been someone who was a member of the Kaguya Clan, but it should not have awakened Shikotsumyaku, no other choice would have worked.
And according to the information given to him by Yagura, other than Kimimaro and Takashi, there are no members of the Kaguya Clan anymore, and even if they somehow exist somewhere, there are no members of the Kaguya Clan, finding them would be much more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack, so that option was no longer useful to Kuroto.
'I must think of a way to heal the Kaguya Clan's Curse.'
While thinking of how to cure the Kaguya Clan Curse, Kuroto suddenly thought, 'What exactly is this poison? And why does it only affect those who use Shikotsumyaku? And most importantly, if this poison was related to the Kekkei Genkai of the Kaguya Clan, then why were the Kaguya Clan members not immune to this poison?'
