Chapter 415: Chapter – 409 A Secret Loyal Subordinate
'Kuchiyose no Jutsu!'
Poof…
From the cloud of white smoke, Shisui in his Anbu costume appeared.
"Is it time?" Shisui asked Itachi who has summoned him.
"Hmm, Mizukage-sama has been defeated, so let's start." – Itachi said to Shisui.
Tsukihi and Itachi have already explained everything occurring in Kirigakure to Shisui in the past few days, as such, no further explanation was needed.
"Alright." Shisui nodded without any hesitation and activated his Mangekyou Sharingan, then he lifted up the unconscious Mizukage by the neck, and opened Yagura's eyelid with his other hand, before, starting he asked Tsukihi, "You are keeping the Sanbi in check, right?"
"Hmm. Don't worry, Sanbi will not be interfering." Tsukihi nodded, she had already placed Sanbi in a Genjutsu with her Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, as such the second biggest turtle of the shinobi world was completely unaware of what exactly was happening to its Jinchuriki.
Shisui nodded, and after brewing sufficient ocular power in both of his eyes, he started,
'Mangekyou Sharingan: Kotoamatsukami!'
Ba bump
The moment Shisui used Kotoamatsukami on the Mizukage both Tsukihi and Itachi heard a loud sound of a heartbeat.
However, both knew that this wasn't any heartbeat, but the resonance of the 'Will' caused by the Dojutsu of Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan. At this moment, Yagura's 'Will' was already under Shisui's control and can be modified as per Shisui's desire.
Kotoamatsukami is different from normal Genjutsu, it does not hinder Chakra flow, it directly affects the Brain and modifies the 'Will' and 'Thought Processes' of the subject.
And because it does not disturb the Subject's Chakra Flow, as such it is impossible to detect whether someone is under the effect of a Genjutsu, or more specifically under Kotoamatsukami or not, not by any means, even other Dojutsu or chakra flow sensory ninjutsu can not see or detect Kotoamatsukami.
The only reason Shimura Danzo who was manipulating Mifune was caught red-handed by Ao during the Gokage Summit is that Ao recognized Shisui's Chakra Color in Danzo's bandaged eye, and from there he made some guesses based on his suspicions which proved to be true.
The reason for Ao's suspicion was Mifune's strange behavior and favor towards Hokage and Konoha, it was not that he detected Mifune being under a Genjutsu or anything as such anyone who is being manipulated by Kotoamatsukami will always remain under control, and never be found out, even if the caster dies.
So, as long as Yagura does not behave strangely or uncharacteristically, no one will figure out that Yagura is in a Genjutsu. In fact, even if Yagura does behave out of character, it can be attributed to the shock and horrible experience he has gone through, so figuring out Yagura being under control is almost impossible.
This is why Kotoamatsukami is the ultimate Genjutsu because it is incredibly hard to counter.
At this moment, Shisui asked Tsukihi, "Alright, I have completely invaded his thought process, what is the change Kuroto-san wanted in his thought process? Is it the same one as Godaime Kazekage or different?"
Tsukihi said, "The same as Pakura, Yagura needs to be a secret loyal subordinate of Amatsukami."
If the Kazekage or the Mizukage were to become loyal to Konoha, or anyone in specific, then their behavior and orders will be for the benefit of Konoha or for that person, which will obviously make others suspicious, in which case, even if they are not suspected to be under Genjutsu, they will still be suspected to have taken refuge or bowed down to Konoha, and if that were to happen, then they wouldn't be able to remain the Kage of their villages.
But if they are secretly loyal to Amatsukami, then they would secretly work for the benefit of the organization, which won't be so easy to figure out, because no one other than the members of the organization knows what is the true goal of Amatsukami and what are they working for, as such, no one will be able to figure out that the Mizukage and Kazekage are Amatsukami's secret subordinate.
'Reasonable enough.' Shisui nodded, and while looking in the eyes of Yagura, he said in a deep voice, "Karatachi Yagura, from this moment forth to the end of your being, as a living being, as a dead being and even somewhere in between, you will be eternally loyal to Amatsukami."
Yagura, who was still unconscious, nodded in a mechanical tone, "I am a loyal secret subordinate of Amatsukami, I will remain eternally loyal to the organization while alive, even after my death, and somewhere in between."
After Yagura's mechanical acceptance of his fate from here on, Shisui closed his eyes and gasped for breath.
Even Yagura who was held by him was dropped to the ground.
"Shisui-san!" Itachi exclaimed and helped Shisui.
Shisui regained, himself, and said "I am alright, it's just that my visual prowess has completely diminished. And this is just the backlash from using Kotoamatsukami at its full potential."
Tsukihi observed Shisui's state carefully. At this moment, Shisui's eyes have completely lost light, meaning, that Shisui can not see anything, and he can not use Mangekyou Sharingan.
Itachi asked Shisui, "Shisui san, will you be able to continue your mission?"
Shisui nodded, "I will manage somehow."
Tsukihi nodded, "Alright, in that case, you can go back, after you return from your mission you will go to Hashirama Cell implantation, Kuroto-sama has informed me that all the preparations for that are completed, so if everything goes well, your vision will soon return to normal."
Shisui nodded, "Alright."
Then Itachi released the summon following which Shisui disappeared from her into a poof of smoke and went back to continue his mission.
Now with Shisui gone, only Tsukihi, Itachi, and an unconscious Mizukage were left.
Itachi asked Tsukihi, "Now that Mizukage has been controlled, what comes next?"
Tsukihi thought a little, then said, "Firstly release Genjutsu on all guards and also erase their memories of what happened tonight… clean up all of our tracks, meanwhile I will take care of our new subordinate and make sure he doesn't die at least, or else this will all be pointless."
Itachi nodded and disappeared.
Now with Itachi gone, Tsukihi picked up Yagura like a sack of potato, also picked up Yagura's club, and walked into the nearby room.
'Let's see what can Kirigakure give me…' was a thought in her mind. One of the many reasons why Amatsukami has controlled the Kazekage and Mizukage is to solve the problem of funds required for the functioning of the organization.
So, aside from complete access to their Jutsu library, Tsukihi also hopes to gain some economic benefits from these two great shinobi villages.
After all, a fund of billions of Ryo is not so easy to collect, even with all the missions from the Black Market.
Moreover, as the experiments have progressed, and the technology has improved, Tsukihi has also realized that her initial calculations were not accurate. There are many more things and many more expenses than she initially took into account, maintenance of Ancor Vantian, funds required to raise Gaara, and Karin, as well as many other expenses.
So, it's about time Tsukihi starts using other Shinobi Villages for her benefits, otherwise what good it would be to control two of the five great shinobi villages if they are not used for anything?

Chapter 416: Chapter – 410 Damn You Obito!
Sometimes later in Kirigakure Archive Room.
Tsukihi was quietly studying the scroll in her hand, sometimes she would have a frowned expression, and sometimes a look of realization would dawn upon her face.
The scroll she was studying recorded the 'Suika no Jutsu' (Hydrification Jutsu), a hallmark Ninjutsu of the Hozuki Clan.
The Hydrification Jutsu of the Hozuki Clan allows the user to liquefy any part of his/her body at will, from the hair on the head to muscles in the arms.
Although, not the absolute best, it is still one of the best Jutsu to negate physical damage as all attacks except for the ones caused by Raiton, just pass through the user leaving them unharmed.
The reason for studying Suiton Ninjutsu is obviously to increase the strength of Suijin Clone, as well as increase its adaptability to Water for the Project Godhood.
And to also understand Natural Energy in a better way. In order to master Senjutsu, the closer Suijin Clone will be to Water Nature, the easier it will be to adapt to Natural Energy, and the easier it will be to absorb Natural energy without turning into stone or going mad or any other types of repercussions while mastering Senjutsu Chakra.
After all, to master Senjutsu, to absorb the Natural Energy, and sense the Natural Energy, the user must also become close to nature itself.
Natural Energy must also have its types, just as there are seven basic Chakra Natures. And it would depend on the user which type of Natural Energy suits them the best.
Since Suijin Clone represents water, so the Natural Energy closer to water should be easier to sense and absorb. Of course, to do so, Suijin will have to reach the state where he will be perceived as water itself.
For that Suijin does have a plan, upon further mastering all physical states of Water, that being, Water, Ice, Vapour, et cetera will Suijin be perceived as water itself.
And mastering Hozuki Clan's Hydrification Jutsu is one way to reach that level.
However, the secret Jutsu of the Hozuki Clan is not so easy to master.
Just as Tsukihi was thinking about it, the Mizukage who was covered in bandages came to his side. The Chakra os Sanbi is healing his burns, but the healing provided by Sanbi is not as potent as the Kyuubi, therefore, his injury is not completely healed, yet. But it would heal eventually, and Karatachi Yagura will again become a pretty boy.
Yagura didn't seem to care about his injuries, and while looking at the scroll held by Tsukihi he said, "You will not be able to master the Secret Jutsu of the Hozuki Clan.
Kotoamatsukami may have made him loyal to Amatsukami, and implanted a new goal in his mind, but his manner of thinking, his personality, and his behavior haven't changed.
Tsukihi glanced at Yagura, and asked, "Why are you so sure? Have others ever tried to master Hydration Jutsu?"
Yagura nodded.
Tsukihi frowned, "Now are you going to tell me that the Hydrificaiton Jutsu of the Hozuki Clan is not some Secret Jutsu, but a Kekkei Genkai?"
Yagura thought a little then shook his head, "In a way, it is something like a Kekkei Genkai, at the same time it isn't."
Tsukihi asked with a confused expression, "What are you saying? This gives no explanation. There has to be some method to learn this Jutsu, right?"
Yagura folded his hands over his chest, then said indifferently, "Up until now only those who share the blood of the Hozuki Clan have been able to master this Ninjutsu, as, for the others, they have tried it a lot, but no one was able to master it yet…"
Tsukihi grinned, and said, "Those who bear the blood of Hozuki Clan, huh?"
Yagura nodded, "There were a few instances where the shinobi of Yuki Clan were able to master this Jutsu, but the thing is, those shinobi were the direct descendants of the members of Hozuki Clan, members who were married to other shinobi clans."
Tsukihi had a thoughtful expression, "So, those of the Yuki Clan can learn this Jutsu if they are directly related to those of the Hozuki Clan?"
This is nothing new, Kekkei Genkai works in this manner.
Yagura continued, "Yes, this is because there have been several inter-clan marriages between the Yuki Clan and Hozuki Clan for hundreds of years, as such when a member of the Hozuki Clan copulates with a member of the Yuki Clan, the probability of the resulting child being able to use Hydrification Jutsu increases. But unfortunately, the Yuki Clan is nearly extinct, so this is meaningless. Even for Suijin unless one of his parents was a member of the Hozuki clan."
'Gene selection? Is that anything new?' thought Tsukihi as she shook her head, 'This Jutsu will be mastered in Suijin Clone, no matter how much effort it takes to be able to do so.'
Seeing Tsukihi's thoughtful expression, Yagura said to Tsukihi, "And what about Hiramekarei? I want that sword back!"
Tsukihi asked curiously, "Why though? It's not as if anyone in the current Kirigakure can even use Hiramekarei, so what's the point in, having it? Do you want it to just lie around?"
Yagura shook his head, "I have found someone with the potential to be able to use Hiramekarei… I am going to revive the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of Kirigakure, and for that, I need all the seven swords. Aside from the Samehada, and Kubikiribocho, which have fallen in the hands of Akatsuki, the others can still be collected. And Hiramekarei is with you… so it's obvious that I want it back. Besides, it's not as though it is useful for you."
Tsukihi thought a little, then nodded, "Alright, but the method of recovering Hiramekarei has to be arranged, after all, I can not just give it to, do remember that Hiramekarei has been stolen by Amatsukami, so it can not be retrieved without any solid explanation."
Hiramekarei is really not that useful for her, as such, Tsukihi doesn't mind giving it away if the strength of Kirigakure can be increased even a little bit.
Then Tsukihi asked, "By the way, who is the potential child who can use Hiramekarei?"
Yagura said, "Currently there are too… one is a child named Choujuro, and the other is a member of the Hozuki Clan, his name is Hozuki Mangetsu."
'The Second Coming of the Demon huh?' thought Tsukihi, the shinobi who had the potential of mastering all the seven swords. Hozuki Mangetsu is a very talented shinobi. But similar to many talented shinobi, he too died too early, and could never reach his true potential, when thinking, Tsukihi said to Yagura, "Alright, but make sure that Hozuki Mangetsu does not die an early death."
Yagura did not speak much, he just nodded. At the point where Kirigakure seriously lacks talent and good shinobi, Yagura has to greatly value the geniuses like Hozuki Mangetsu, and Choujuro who can become the future of Kirigakure, and support the village as pillars.
Tsukihi said, "Anyway, have you brought the diary that I instructed you to bring?"
Yagura nodded and passed a diary he was holding in his one hand to Tsukihi while also asking, "This is Kirigakure's, Financial Ledger, are you sure you want to see it, girl?"
Tsukihi nodded, "Of course, how else am I going to calculate how much funds I can take from Kirigakure."
Yagura sighed, and passed the diary to Tsukihi, while adding, "I think you will be greatly disappointed."
Tsukihi took the diary with a frowned expression at Yagura's words, then she opened the diary and started reading all the accounting details, as she skimmed through the pages, her face turned from curious, and frown to pale, and by the time she had completed all the final calculations, all she could do was mutter with a shocked expression, "11… 11 billion Ryo in debt?" Then asked with an angered expression "What the hell were you people doing that such debts have been collected?"
Yagura looked downward with a downcast expression, this is another one of the effects of Obito controlling the Mizukage.
"In such a situation, I can not take even a penny from here…!" – Tsukihi muttered.
Tsukihi was now sure that the reason for Yagura's suicide wasn't the guilt in his heart, but it was this debt of 11 billion Ryo, definitely this debt. Even Tsukihi would have done the same thing if she was in Yagura's position.
"Damn you Obito!" Tsukihi can't help but curse Obito for leaving such a troublesome situation, she has to obviously solve this trouble else all of her efforts of controlling Kirigakure will result in a failure.
