"Damn… the consumption of chakra reserves is much more severe than I had imagined…!"
Although she had known that the fusion of three chakra natures would consume a lot of chakras, the consumption was still far beyond her imagination.
"The chakra requirement alone is so high, no wonder that even after a millennium since the Shinobi World was founded by Rikudo Sennin, there is still only one Kekkei Tōta in existence."
The chakra requirements alone make more than 99% of the shinobi unable to try and learn Dust Release. As for the remaining less than 1%, other factors such as Chakra Natures, and experience also come into play, resulting in only a handful of people being capable of training and mastering a Kekkei Tōta.
Only because of the excellent aspects of this clone body, she is able to walk on the path of learning Dust Release, and even then, she is having a little difficulty. If it weren't for that, then perhaps there would have been no chance for her either. But then again, this clone body was created with the very purpose of mastering Dust Release, so it's not strange that she is capable of learning it.
"The difficulty of maintaining the fusion of three chakra natures is very high. It seems, under normal conditions, Kekkei Tōta is the highest level of Ninjutsu that a shinobi can master normally."
Having personally experienced the difficulty of fusing the three chakra natures, she also understood why the Shinobi World never had a Ninjutsu that is a combination of more than three chakra natures.
A combination of three chakra natures is the limit of a normal shinobi. If one wishes to go higher, then he must change his means and rely on external methods, such as eating the fruit of the God Tree like Ōtsutsuki Kaguya or becoming the Jinchuriki of the Ten-Tails like Rikudo Sennin, Madara, and Obito, or successfully completing the Kekkei Genkai Absorption Ritual that Kuroto plans to do.
Anyway, these are the things one has to use to go beyond Kekkei Tōta. For now, let's focus on Kekkei Tōta.
Tip… Tip… Tip…
Drop by drop, sweat flowed down her cheeks and fell to the floor, soon forming a puddle of sweat. By now, she was already feeling a bit dizzy and tired. However, she just gritted her teeth and insisted, believing that she could definitely find the right fusion ratio of the three chakra natures and complete their fusion no matter how difficult it was.
Her confidence was further boosted when she sensed that the chakras of Earth, Fire, and Wind nature were no longer repelling each other, meaning she had finally found the right combination!
"About damn time!"
Sensing that the fusion of three chakra natures was reaching completion, she felt refreshed and further delved her concentration into the process.
And finally, it happened!
A completely different chakra that wasn't Earth, Wind, or Fire, but rather a combination of all three with a completely different set of properties appeared in her body. Sensing this new chakra, she couldn't help but get excited. But before she could relish in happiness for too long, her expression turned ghastly. The reason being, that she suddenly felt that she had lost control over this new Chakra Nature.
She didn't have any time to react when suddenly a dazzling white light flashed between her palms and was subconsciously shot toward the wall in front.
Boom!
Accompanied by a blinding white light, the sound of an explosion came from above her head, and at the same time, the entire floating castle shook.
She, who couldn't see because of the blinding white light covering the room, was startled by the sudden turn of events, "Wh-what the hell happened?"
It was only after the blinding white light disappeared and her vision was gradually restored that she finally saw, "Shit!"
The entire training hall was completely destroyed. Not only this but even a large hole of several meters in diameter was also opened in the dome of the hall!
Woohoo! Woohoo! Woohoo!
Emergency alarms were also ringing all over the Ancor Vantian, indicating that the security of the floating castle had been breached.
Whoosh!
At this time, Kasa (The Sandaime Kazekage Puppet) rushed to the training facility, and seeing the blonde trap standing there with a speechless expression, he quickly asked, "Kuroto-sama… what happened?"
Oh yeah, even if the soul is in other clone bodies, because of the connection with the chakra and soul, Kasa was able to immediately recognize Kuroto.
Kasa asked quickly, "Is it an enemy attack?" believing it to be an enemy attack.
Hearing Kasa's call, she broke out of her shock. She shook her head, "No, it is not an enemy attack," then waved her hand and said, "This was just an accident, stop the alarms."
Kasa quickly nodded without asking for any explanation, "All right, I understand," and went towards the security room to turn off the alarms.
As Kasa was flying away, she shouted from the back, "Oh, and don't forget to calm down Gaara and Kaarin; the two of them might be in a panic right now."
Kasa responded respectfully, "I will take care of them."
As Kasa left, she looked back at the aftermath of the explosion and cursed herself, "How could I have been so stupid? I was training Dust Release in the training facility of Ancor Vantian…! Isn't this equivalent to destroying the floating fortress myself!?"
Looking at the hole that is more than a dozen meters in diameter, she couldn't help but cry, "Damn it! I have gone and done it! This hole runs through three floors… fixing it will definitely cost several million Ryo…!"
As she thought of the expenses, a worry suddenly flashed in her eyes, and she immediately dashed toward her laboratory in fright. After confirming that the laboratory wasn't affected by the explosion, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
While thinking that additionally reinforcing the laboratory really paid off, she returned to the training facility of Ancor Vantian and carefully inspected the damage.

Thinking of the accident a while ago, even a kunoichi as strong as she was completely caught off guard. Even before she had realized what had happened, everything had already happened.
Thinking of the power displayed by the white light, she could say that it was amazing!
You must know whether it was the training facility of the Ancor Vantian or the upper floors that were turned to dust by the white light, all of them were remodeled and reinforced by Kuroto not too long ago. However, these remodeled and reinforced areas were instantly pierced like a tofu block.
And that wasn't all, but even the defensive barriers protecting the air fortress weren't any different from those tofu-like floors; the instant the white light touched them, they were breached and broken. Even if the attack was made from the inside, the barriers were still supposed to work, but they clearly didn't in the face of the white light, clearly highlighting the terrifying destructive power of white light.
The destructive power displayed is fine; however, the type of destruction was a bit different, making her confused.
Stroking the jagged edge of the breach, she muttered in confusion, "The instantaneous destructive power displayed earlier is without a doubt by Dust Release, but why is the state of damage different from the type displayed by Ōnoki? Does Dust Release vary from user to user?"
After thinking about it, she felt that the sudden accident just now and traces of damage don't actually match the complete and perfect form of Dust Release. Meaning, the accident here was definitely caused by an incomplete or perhaps imperfect form of Dust Release, and it is very likely that this imperfection is because of the incorrect ratio of the three chakra natures used by her.
The importance of the correct ratio of chakra natures is very high while using a Kekkei Genkai or Kekkei Tōta; nobody knows this better than Kuroto who has mastered so many Kekkei Genkai from scratch.
When the accident happened, she felt that she had found the right chakra ratio; however, it seems that she was wrong. She is very close to finding the right ratio, but she hasn't yet found it.
Here, once again, the importance of information and guidance is reflected. If she had someone to teach her, then she wouldn't have made this mistake and wouldn't have to waste so much time and effort, and she also wouldn't have to take a lot of detours to find the right chakra ratio.
But there's no helping it. She doesn't have all these benefits, and because her objective is to master Dust Release, hence she has to do everything.
After performing some crude repairs to the giant hole in the Ancor Vantian and redeploying the barrier, she used a simple clay bird, left the floating fortress, and came to a deserted island on the Shinobi Continent.
The previous accident caused a very big loss for her, but it also highlighted that she is very close, so she doesn't want to waste a lot of time here and there.
Strike while the iron is still hot since she is already very close, then put some additional effort and completely master it.
After landing on the deserted island, she thought about it for a second and decided to remove her shinobi bag, put it on the back of the clay bird, and signaled it to fly at a high altitude.
Having experienced the accident not long ago, she didn't want to be careless and carry dangerous things like explosive clay on her body. Who knows if another accident happens, and this time the explosive clay explodes? If such an accident were to occur, then she wouldn't even have any bones left of her body by the time the smoke clears up.
Anyway, after completing all the preparations, she took a deep breath, calmed her mind, and again started the process of fusion of three chakra natures.
Unlike previous tries, this time, the process of fusion was quite smooth, and she didn't face any difficulty in particular.
This time, she also tried to maintain stark control over the white cube emerging between her hands. She made sure that it didn't fire itself at something and tried to adjust the levels of different chakra natures in an attempt to find the right combination and ratio.
After a while of continuing the same practice, her eyes narrowed subconsciously because she felt that she had finally found the right combination.
To confirm her guess, she stabilized the white fluorescent light between her palms and then slowly released it in the direction of a small sea shell lying on the sand not far away.
Phush…
She looked intently at the sea shell and soon noticed that with a soft sound of sand falling, the sea shell disappeared without leaving any trace behind.
"Oh my god!" she exclaimed in shock, but soon that shock turned into excitement, "It… it succeeded!"
If the Sandaime Tsuchikage of Iwagakure were to see the scene that happened just now, he would be in disbelief to find out that a Kunoichi successfully managed to learn Dust Release, that too without any prior guidance or support!
Caw Caw Caw
Just as she was excited and dancing in joy, suddenly the sound of a crow cawing reached her ears.
She looked up and noticed a crow flying towards her. Finding her, the crow descended, landed on her shoulder, and extended its clay forward for her to take out the small scroll tied to its feet.
She did exactly that, and after reading the message on the scroll, she was more excited and overjoyed because she had received another piece of good news, "So, Danzō's trace has finally been found?"
She had expected Danzō to deliberately leak his tracks to lead Homusubi to fight her. Obviously, she is very well aware that this is going to be a trap, but despite this, she plans to take the bait because if the earlier threat of Danzō is resolved, the earlier she will have the pair of Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan in her hands.
As she was reading the information sent to her, another crow flew down and landed on her shoulder. It also extended its claw forward so that she could take out the small scroll tied to its feet.
She did exactly that, and after taking out the scroll from the second crow's feet, she read the content on this scroll.
As she read it, she couldn't help but frown for a while, then her brows arched crescent, and she muttered in an amused grin, "Well, I must say, this is certainly very interesting…"
