100: Hmph ungrateful girl,

“Is this information reliable? “ Nagato, who is disguised as Pain, asked Kakuzu with trembling hands. Thankfully this is just a puppet so Nagato could still control his expressions to appear indifferent.

“Yes, the black market prides itself on their correct information. So far there has not been a single case of anyone getting false information. “ Kakuzu said with a nod. At the very least he had not seen any cases for his entire life.

“ Good, then go and tell that manager and inform him that we will take this commission, “ Nagato said as his voice turned cold and indifferent.

“ Okay, “ Kakuzu said as he turned around and left. He was in a good mood. Although the boss coming with him would make him split the bounty but this is way better than getting blacklisted.

In the information, it was said that there are are least 100 of ninjas under Danzo's command. With such a number even he wasn't sure of capturing Danzo if he wanted to escape. After all for a man who could be called the darkness of Konoha, he may have many escape techniques.

After Kakuzu left the room descended into silence until a woman’s voice sounded, “ What do you think about this Nagato “

Nagato looked at the side and saw Konan appearing from the shadows. Her usual cold indifferent face suggests that the earlier conversation was just trivial but the pressure coming out of her tells another story.

“ we will wait for now and check whether the information the black market provides is true or not, “ Nagato said as he looked at the raining sky from the window.

“ I will go and confirm the intelligence by myself, “ Konan said quickly.

Nagato hesitated for a moment before he finally agreed. “Okay but be careful, our objective is to investigate and not attack. “

Konan nodded as she said, “ I know we can’t let that bastard escape like last time". And with her words, she disappeared into a pile of paper.

“ Yes, Danzo Shimura you shall know pain,” Nagato said as a coldness flashed through his eyes. Just like Konan he also wanted to rush there and kill Danzo once and for all but he couldn't do that.

Now that he controls the Land of Rain he can’t let his decisions affect the land. What's more, they cannot allow Danzo to escape like last time.

“ So Kiyomi, tell me how are the new recruits adapting to their new jobs “ Izanami asked as she looked at Kiyomi.

“ Well, although most of them are a bit arrogant, they are still manageable. “ Kiyomi said with a chuckle.

“ Well that's true, nothing beats a good beating, “ Izanami said with a chuckle. She heard of the reports of how the arrogant piece of shits were shown their place by their seniors.

“ That’s true “Kiyomi nodded. In fact, most of those brats were disciplined by herself.“ So aunt why did you want to meet me, “ Kiyomi asked as she looked at Izanami.

“ Well it’s nothing too serious I just wanted to give these back to you, “ Izanami said as she waved her hand. The space was cut open and three items began to float out of the cracks.

There were two long katanas and a haori that was neatly folded. The katanas had golden flaming marks on their scaberds while haori was a plain blackish grey haori with red lines.

Seeing those familiar items Kiyomi had a nostalgic look. Those were hers when she was hailed as the Sun Empress in the village.

“I kept them with me after you passed away. Since I applied some time stop seals on them they didn’t age with time. I was meaning to give this to you earlier but keep forgetting it for some reason “Izanami said as she waved her hand and closed the space tear and let the items fall on Kiyomi’s lap.

“Thank you for keeping these safe with you aunt, I thought these would be lost with my death. “ Kiyomi said as she looked at the three items with a smile.

These three were the weapons and battle armor she wore in her past life. The weapons were made personally by Izanami herself and the haori is enchanted with many seals that it is more indestructible than the Susano’s armor.

Although these three items were treasures they have a big problem with them. They can only

Be wielded by Kiyomi herself. If it was another person these would just work as a pretty decent weapon and armour.

“ Oh and take this, “ Izanami said as she also handed a booklet to Kiyomi. Kiyomi looked at with with curiosity as she began to read it. And just after reading just a few pages, she was shocked.

“ Oh don’t get too shocked over this. You know I lived for more than thousands of years idle. Coming up with a blood-refining method is just child’s play for me now.” Izanami with a chuckle.

Kiyomi gulped as she nodded like an obedient chicken. The reason why she was shocked is actually not because of the blood refining method as the Uchiha clan refined theirs instinctively after they unlocked the Sharingan. The part why she was so shocked is because of what is written in this book.

This book had many details and descriptions of the blood refining process so thoroughly that one would be able to learn it easily. Reading this one would be able to improve their bloodlines no matter how much purity they held. For Izanami to write such thorough explanations she would need to do a lot of research. And for this research, she needs experimental subjects.

From what Kiyomi could tell at least a hundred human experimental subjects were used. And this is the count she could get from reading the first few pages as there were various examples of how to explain each process that went wrong.

‘ It seems like second aunt’s death broke Aunt's sanity after all. After all if that person was there Aunt Izanami would never do human experiments even if the humans were criminals themselves ‘ Kiyomi thought as she stored the booklet and other stuff away. She would review them more thoroughly later.

“Is that all? “ Kiyomi asked as she looked at Izanami.

“You brat you should be satisfied with the gifts I gave you. Don’t be greedy “ Izanami said as she flicked Kiyomi on the forehead.

Kiyomi just stuck out her tongue and disappeared in a flash. She left just like that.

“Hmph ungrateful girl, “Izanami said but her she had no anger in voice. Instead, there was a trace of sadness in them. She knew why Kiyomi ran away like that. After all, remembering that person even if it was just a thought was enough for Izanami who could read minds to remember the dark past she had.

Just like Kiyomi said if that person was there Izanami would have never even dared to conduct human experiments. After all, she really didn’t like Izanami doing such stuff.

“ Hinami I really miss you “ Izanami murmured as a tear drop came down her face. She previously thought she never be able to meet with her as she couldn’t find her soul even when she took over the pure land. But Kiyomi’s situation gave her some new hope. The hope of seeing her best friend and lover again.
