Chapter 877 Amatsukami Analysis Report: Part 2
As Kuroto turned the page, the next name that appeared before his eyes was that of Suijin from the Amatsukami Organization. Having witnessed firsthand the clashes between Sandaime Hokage and the shinobi of Kirigakure, Kuroto found the description of Suijin's battle style, tactics, and Jutsu to be far more intricate.
Kakashi spoke, "Undoubtedly, you should already be familiar with him, considering your unfortunate encounter with him nearly eight years ago."
Kuroto nodded, "Yes, he and Homusubi suddenly materialized before me and Shisui, subjecting us to a chilling freeze." Of course, this fabricated story served as a cover for Kuroto and Shisui's actual deeds.
Kakashi concurred, "Indeed… It's highly likely that Suijin is a skilled shinobi hailing from the extinct Yuki Clan of Kirigakure. His mastery over Ice Release Kekkei Genkai and Water Release Jutsu is extraordinary, enabling him to engage Sandaime-sama on equal footing. Additionally, he possesses an enigmatic technique that transforms him into a colossal dragon-like creature, capable of summoning an oceanic phenomenon in the sky. Only through the combined efforts of Yondaime Mizukage in his perfected Jinchuriki Mode and elite Shinobi from Kirigakure did they manage to compel his retreat.
Furthermore, there exists a possibility that he engaged several members of the Akatsuki Organization during Orochimaru's tenure. Not only did he confront them head-on, but he also emerged from the encounter alive, underscoring his formidable prowess and extensive combat experience."
Kuroto nodded, perusing the description of Suijin. Even without Kakashi's information, Kuroto possessed intimate knowledge of the enigmatic shinobi named Suijin. His gaze fixated on the term "unidentified" and he inquired with a faint smile, "So, we still have no inkling about his true identity?"
Kakashi sighed, "Regrettably, no… Even the denizens of Kirigakure remain clueless as to Suijin's origins. Over the past two decades, during the era of the ‘Village of the Bloody Mist,' numerous Shinobi defected from the village, making it arduous to distinguish friend from foe… Moreover, in that era, those possessing Kekkei Genkai were relentlessly persecuted by Kirigakure authorities following the Coup d'état. As a result, many concealed their true identities and their affiliations with Kekkei Genkai-bearing clans. Consequently, ascertaining Suijin's potential identity proves to be an exceedingly challenging endeavor."
"Hmm," Kuroto acknowledged, absorbing the information.@@novelbin@@
About the situation in Kirigakure, nobody possessed a deeper understanding than Kuroto himself. During the days when Yagura was clandestinely manipulated by Obito, uprisings erupted in Kirigakure almost every month. Even now, the village struggled to recover from the scars of civil wars, making it unsurprising that the true identity of ‘Suijin' remained elusive.
With this knowledge in mind, Kuroto shifted his focus to the section concerning ‘Homusubi' within the file. In comparison to the previous information on ‘Suijin,' the details regarding ‘Homusubi' were notably more extensive. It was evident that the village placed considerably greater importance on ‘Homusubi' than on ‘Suijin.'"The circumstances surrounding ‘Homusubi' are rather exceptional. There are two individuals bearing the name ‘Homusubi' within the Amatsukami organization—one male and one female. The male ‘Homusubi' possesses a crimson Susano'o and is known to wield special spiritual weapons called ‘Totsuka no Tsurugi' and ‘Yata no Kagami.' These spiritual artifacts harbor unimaginable power, with ‘Totsuka no Tsurugi' capable of sealing anyone within an eternal drunken dream and ‘Yata no Kagami' possessing the ability to reflect all enemy Jutsu.
Diverging from the male ‘Homusubi,' the female ‘Homusubi' manifests a golden Susano'o of grander proportions, akin to that of Shisui's. Moreover, her Susano'o is enveloped in a Golden Flame, searing with intense heat, capable of incinerating Chakra itself. Only Tailed Beast Chakra-infused Water Release or Senjutsu Chakra-infused Water Release can withstand the potency of these golden flames.
What's truly remarkable is that she can wield these golden flames even outside the realm of her Susano'o. In addition to Susano'o, both individuals possess their own unique Mangekyō Sharingan abilities, much like Uchiha Shinichi… Though we are unaware of the full extent of their abilities, we do know that one of the male ‘Homusubi's' capabilities is a Genjutsu that entraps victims within a world under his complete control. Time flows at his whim within this Genjutsu, which he employs to torment his adversaries. This ability is exceptionally treacherous, as I personally experienced its horrors during the War of the Best," explained Kakashi, his expression clouded with bitterness. The hours of torture he endured still lingered vividly in his memory.
Kuroto nodded as he directed his attention towards the comprehensive description of both ‘Homusubi' individuals.
The description contained similarities between the Susano'o of male Homusubi and that of Fugaku, as depicted in the two pictures. The resemblances extended beyond color and encompassed their shape. However, the possession of ‘Totsuka no Tsurugi' and ‘Yata no Kagami' was noted as a distinguishing factor.
Kakashi further shared his perplexity, stating, "I find this rather peculiar as well. The Susano'o of male Homusubi and Uchiha Fugaku bear striking similarities… According to Shisui's account, the Susano'o of two individuals should not be reminiscent of each other due to their distinct Chakra signatures."
Curious, Kuroto glanced at Kakashi and queried, "What are your thoughts? Why are they so alike?"
Kakashi shook his head and replied, "We possess limited knowledge concerning the Uchiha Clan and their Susano'o, making it difficult to draw any conclusive explanations for their similarities."
In truth, a lingering doubt resided within Kakashi's heart, unspoken to anyone. There existed a possibility that the male Homusubi had a close blood relation to Uchiha Fugaku, which could account for their comparable chakra signatures. The male Homusubi might be Fugaku's unknown sibling or even Fugaku's eldest son, Itachi. However, Kakashi had meticulously examined all available records, which showed no evidence of Fugaku having a sibling. Furthermore, at the time the male Homusubi first appeared, Itachi was merely eight or nine years old, making him an implausible candidate. Therefore, Kakashi remained uncertain and chose not to share this possibility with others. He had no desire to unjustly implicate the young Uchiha heir.
Nodding in understanding, Kuroto posed another question, "Are there any speculations regarding their potential identities?"
Kakashi mumbled to himself, "It could be anyone…" After a pause, he continued, "One possibility is that the female Homusubi is Uchiha Naori, who operated during the era when Sandaime and the other elders were young shinobi. According to available information, she met an untimely demise under mysterious circumstances." He added, "As for the male Homusubi, it could be either Uchiha Ryota or his brother Uchiha Hideki, both of whom were abducted by Amatsukami a few years ago. However, these are merely conjectures, and there is also a chance that these assumptions are incorrect. It is plausible that both the male and female Homusubi are individuals presumed dead during the first, second, or third great shinobi war… The Uchiha, it seems, have a way of resurfacing after all." As Kakashi concluded, a hint of melancholy clouded his demeanor.
Nodding thoughtfully, Kuroto acknowledged, "Those are reasonable guesses, I suppose."
The possibility that the Uchihas of Amatsukami were hidden within the Uchiha Clan was not entertained by the village, which was a wise and logical approach.
The current Uchiha Clan consists of three Mangekyō Sharingan users, none of whom are Homusubi. This fact is widely acknowledged. If the two Uchihas from Amatsukami were indeed concealed within the Uchiha Clan, the clan would have a total of five Mangekyō Sharingan users. With such formidable power, it is likely that the Uchiha Clan would have revolted long ago. However, the absence of any such rebellion suggests that Homusubi and the other Uchiha are not harbored within the Uchiha Clan.
With this thought in mind, Kuroto turned the page and came across the section dedicated to Fujin. Due to Fujin's involvement in the battle against numerous members of the Akatsuki during their attempted Konoha Collapse Plan, and the extensive witnesses from Konoha, his section contained substantial information. 𝐑ÀΝồΒÊ𐌔
It was repeatedly emphasized that Fujin possessed a mastery over several Kekkei Genkai. Notably, Magnet Release, Shikotsumyaku, and Typhoon Release were mentioned. Interestingly, the information regarding Scorch Release and Byakugan, which Kuroto had desired to remain undisclosed, was absent. Although he couldn't fathom why Kurenai omitted it, he felt relieved by its absence.
Observing Kuroto's growing interest in Fujin, Kakashi inquired, "Would you like to hear my personal assessment of Fujin?"
Kuroto nodded in agreement and replied, "Please, go ahead."
Kakashi shared his perspective, stating, "Fujin is not just strong, but incredibly powerful. Without a doubt, he is the second strongest member within the Amatsukami Organization."
Kakashi's assessment was accurate. The strength of the Fujin Clone indeed ranked second within Amatsukami. However, this ranking was subject to change with Karin acquiring the Rinnegan. Nonetheless, at present, it remained a fact. After all, the devastating power of the All Killing Ash Bones was nothing to be taken lightly. Even though the Fujin Clone could only utilize this power partially at the risk of self-destruction, it undeniably stood as one of the most perilous abilities in the Shinobi World.
Nodding in understanding, Kuroto perused the content regarding Fujin. Subsequently, he shifted his attention to the section about Dojin. Although this segment lacked substantial information, it contained a sentence that revealed everything one needed to know about Dojin: "Dojin is Deidara of Iwagakure."
Kakashi clarified, "Despite his denial, this fact remains undoubtedly true. All relevant information about Deidara is stored in the corresponding archives. Feel free to explore it at your convenience."
Kuroto nodded and closed the Analysis Report, expressing his satisfaction, "This report is impeccable!"
As for the true reason behind his satisfaction? Perhaps that’s something only Kuroto understood.
