Toraono Kuro said:Kuro had just finished a small reunion with his remaining family inside Sunagakure when a messenger bearing his father's seal left him a scroll. After bidding Sousuke and Kazuki well and leaving the Orb of Burden with Michino Kuro went to an old sound and sight isolated chamber and activated the ancient barriers within it. Kuro sat down and read the missive and then wave his chakra through it for the secret messages that would only respond to him. The majority of the letter was indeed mundane. Kaibudo spoke of his and mother's journies through Iron Country and the remnants of family still remaining there. What was unexpected was his father's remarks about the old sensory arrays near the mobile fortress set near the remains of Babylos. There were thousands of enemies running rampant, Unbent by the chakra echoes before the sensors themselves were drained of energy. The sketches hidden in the scroll showed inhuman masses of unbent emerging from the very earth and sands hidden for so long. No one could go there outside of Kuro, Hyakujuuonouu, or the unbent themselves. Kuro had sealed that area in order to quell Mother Suna;'s need to control or kill Sousuke. Now Kuro would need to once again preserve the last Ancients of Mother Suna's lineage as per their pact and eradicate all threats to their seclusion or have the mobile fortress moved. Either way Kuro needed to move and move now, this would not be as easy as when he had greater powers and mobility but he could still unleash his wrath in a fashion if necessary.
Kuro quickly gathered his remaining weapons and his identification before exiting the main gates newly built during his work in the desert. It was good to see that Sousuke and the Kazekage had been able to do so much after he stepped down from his sennin position.
With a wave and a scroll left to the guards at the gate giving his general heading and personal mission background to them so that they might notify Sousuke and Kazuki of his heading. Kuro setoff for the hidden sands at full speed in his reconstructed body.

Toraono Kuro said:Mission Name: Protection from the Swarms
Mission Type: SSM/Medical/Oracle/Ranger
Mission Rank: S-rank
Objective: Kuro was working to install new leadership for the Dojo when he received reports of swarms of Fatalist Method monstrosities terrorizing the land. Kuro sets off after a quick talk with Throne Candidates to eliminate and study the opposition. These attacks don't sound like normal Unbent. Using his medical and martial knowledge Kuro will patrol the deep sands where normal nin would not be authorized to go.
As part of his duties, Kuro will rescue as many people as he can and eliminate as much of the swarm as he possibly can.
With each group of twelve or more that Kuro manages to eliminate he will then set up a quick barrier so that he can take medical notes on any abnormalities that can be singled out as weaknesses and use his shadow servants to deliver messages concerning his findings. Not only will Kuro do a physical and mental exam on each refugee, and treat them accordingly, but Kuro will also perform field autopsies of enemies he manages to take down in 1 piece.
Any refugees that Kuro saves will receive a devil link seal as a marker of Kuro's actions and it will also contain any relevant information that Kuro can place inside this seal dictating where the refugee was found, their medical condition, their known status and if any thing strange is noted about them. Any Suna medic or Suna Anbu will be able to quickly take in this information by accessing the seal with Anbu or Medic jutsu which will allow them to receive Kuro's memories and words.

The sands did not give way to Kuro’s movement techniques for he had long ago mastered the soundless step upon the dunes, his touch as he ran across the sands would give no more dispersal of energy or disruption than a cricket or a scuttling scorpion. With ground shrinking strides Kuro shot across the ancient desert to the location where Mother Suna’s kindred were kept safe from corruption and worse by Ancient Rangers long ago lost to the annals of Sunagakure’s history. His body had indeed changed, he was far more demon than human now and he had never been very close to humanity to begin with. With his pact with Mother Suna and the blood shared he now had more Ancient DNA than Human and his demon blood was over fifty percent. It was safer to say that Kuro was truly an immortal monster since he had left his position as a Sennin. With his reinforced body he could control dark chakra and his muscle fibers with over six hundred percent efficiency.
As he sped along the dunes Kuro saw smoke in the distance. A caravan that had been tricked off its path by bandits was now under siege. Even the bandits themselves that had originally waylaid the caravan were now fighting desperately to live as over four hundred scions of the swarm attacked the living for their chakra and their flesh. Kuro changed his direction and became a blur as he actually made sure that his steps bore weight and menace now as his demon and ancient blood literally surged with dark chakra releasing small black orbs from both his shoulders and neck the size of coins. Three orbs in all flickered to life as they paced with Kuro attached to his reforged body by thin dark chakra strings. As he sighted in on his targets which were using fatalist methods to drain what little chakra remained in the area and the people they attacked. These were obviously Unbent, but far more voracious. They were not like those that had once been imprisoned in the dark citadel beneath Old Sunagakure. These Unbent were not singular individuals, they literally moved as a mass. Perhaps they had a hivemind or another singular form of intellect or instinct.
The monstrosities attacked in mass so Kuro unleashed his initial barrage of kinetic jutsu to slow and or destroy these monsters and give the living a chance to flee. Aiming for the center of the massive swarm Kuro released two ninjutsu as he closed in to a distance he felt would allow him maximum effective range and battle control.
