Uzumaki Rin

Having caught up to his Nomus, Kurogiri discovered a ninja being held on the ground, unable to move his limbs. It turned out that the ninja had been heading towards the border with the Land of Fire when he was suddenly attacked by an invisible force that knocked him off his feet.

As he hit the ground hard, he felt hands on all his limbs, preventing him from moving. Kurogiri emerged from the ground in front of the terrified ninja, causing him to panic as he realized it was the same creature from the Bingo book.

Before the ninja could say anything, Kurogiri spoke with a smile showcasing his sharp teeth, asking a few questions, dripping with sarcasm. He even used his confession quirk to force the ninja to answer.

The questioning revealed that there were only two to three hundred ninjas in the village, with only twenty being high-level, fifty mid-level, while the rest comprised low-level ninjas.

The village also had a prison outside the country but it was near the coast a land over, which held ninja prisoners. Some secret was hidden there that only the elders of the village knew about, and Kurogiri was curious to find out what it was.

With the interrogation done, Kurogiri drained the ninja's body of chakra, killed him, and burned his body. He then absorbed the chakra from the ninja, causing his body to expand and his height to increase, while the remaining pains slowly dissipated.

Excited at the prospect of becoming stronger following this takedown, Kurogiri decided to move into the village, sending five clones in disguise using a hologram over themselves.

While his clones were busy identifying ninja patrolling the village, Kurogiri, using search, tracked and saved them. He then moved into an abandoned area of the village with the Nomus behind him and summoned his clones, having them acting suspiciously before gathering around him.

Kurogiri watched as his clones entered the area, with the ten ninjas following closely behind. Knowing the ninja would continue to follow, Kurogiri ordered his clones to use permeation to sink into the ground and leave holograms behind. He then led the ninja towards the shadows of five hiding clones.

The ninja were following five suspicious people who appeared different from the typical villagers. The group led them to an abandoned area of the village, where they found an unfamiliar person waiting for them.

As soon as they arrived, the ninja noticed something was wrong. Their partners were bound by a thick black chakra thread that seemed to come from their shadows. Kurogiri quickly ordered his Nomus to apprehend the remaining five ninja while having his clones drain the captured ninja's chakra.

Finding it easy to defeat these ninjas compared to Konoha only fueled Kurogiri's desire to conquer this village. The Nomus quickly moved forward and attacked the unsuspecting ninjas with their respective quirks. The Engine Nomu rushed towards the ninjas at its maximum speed, hitting them with repulsive beams from its hands.

After the Nomus knocked down the ninjas, Kurogiri's Dupli-Arm Nomu used Body Bulk to grow five times its size and attacked the last three ninjas using all its arms simultaneously. Once the ninjas were knocked back, Kurogiri's clones restrained them with blackwhip. They bound the ninjas' arms, legs, and mouth while emerging from the ground.

The clones then drained the remaining five ninja of their chakra, causing them to fall unconscious like the previous five. Kurogiri decided to leave the ninja's bodies instead of burning them since they were not very strong. If he wanted people to be under him, he couldn't just kill them all. He planned to determine who lived and who died based on the judgment of the woman in the hospital he had to contact.

Kurogiri made another clone and sent it to the hospital using black to identify the woman and save her using search. Kurogiri himself hid in the shadow of a nearby building, waiting to capture anyone who came to the area. The clone used black and permeation together to travel between the shadows and ground through the village until it reached the hospital. Once there, it listened out for anyone who might mention the woman.

Meanwhile, a red-haired woman in the lowest hospital room being bitten by ninjas could sense a massive chakra signature coming towards her from above. She couldn't say anything to the village as they treated her as a tool, but the signature was so immense that no one in the village could match it. Eventually, the ninja stopped biting her and left with the doctor, who praised their healthcare improvements thanks to the woman.

Little did they know that the shadow of the chair where the Kurogiri clone had arrived earlier could overhear their conversation and travelled down to the basement using permeation. Once there, the shadow of the clone travelled through lantern shadows downwards to reach a chair shadow in the basement, where they could see the red-haired woman cleaning the floors. The clone noticed the bite marks all over her arms, and the woman could sense his chakra.

Kurogiri used Telepathy to introduce himself since she could sense chakra, telling her that he couldn't hear her thoughts. The woman was shocked to hear Kurogiri's voice inside her head, but she nodded to acknowledge it.

After Kurogiri saw her nodded in acknowledgement, he revealed himself to be a clone to the Red-Hair woman. He then shared his plans to take over the village but said that he reached out to her because he felt that the village only considered her a tool for their use.

Kurogiri believed that she desired protection and security, and he offered to strengthen and assist her. All he asked for was her support for after he takes over the village and that he wants her judgement on who to kill.

The Red-Hair woman initially questioned Kurogiri on his intentions and how she could trust him to not use her like the village. In response, Kurogiri stepped out of the shadows and gave himself a wound using his hardening technique.

The wound quickly healed, demonstrating his own healing ability. Seeing this, the woman was convinced that Kurogiri did not need her for her healing ability and trusted in his sincerity and intentions only hesitant about the killing.

However, while remembering all the abuse that the villagers heaped upon her, and how it could potentially affect her daughter, ultimately agreed to support Kurogiri with a smile, introducing herself as Uzumaki Rin and informing him about her five-year-old daughter.

She then asked if he would also protect her daughter. Kurogiri, upon hearing that she had a daughter, understood why Rin put up with mistreatment and couldn't help but admire her strength. He assured her that she and her daughter would be protected and given the ability to protect themselves.

Meanwhile, the village was in turmoil because ten ninja had disappeared from patrols without any clues. The remaining ninjas were conducting a village-wide search for anything suspicious to try and find any leads.

Unbeknownst to them, Kurogiri was capturing every ninja who passed through his area, adding to the number of unconscious bodies in the vicinity and using the Dupli-Arm Nomu to gather up the bodies into a pile.

During the process of communicating with Rin through his clone, five more ninja approached the area only to meet the same fate. This continued until the pile grew significantly due to the arrival of ten more ninja making the total taken down twenty-five.

The remaining patrol consisting of fifteen ninja became concerned when over half of guardsmen disappeared. They traced the area and arrived at the abandoned poor region of the village. Upon arrival, they found the pile of bodies using the twenty-five missing guardsmen.

Kurogiri, seeing the patrol's arrival, waited for them to drop their guard while checking their teammate's vital signs. As they reached the pile and were busy attending to the unconscious ninja, Kurogiri ordered his Nomu to attack while releasing six clones from the shadows he was hiding in.

The ninjas were caught completely off guard by the Nomus and didn't even notice the hands coming out of six shadows, grabbing their legs. The clones then drained the six ninjas of their chakra, causing them to collapse. However, the other ninjas couldn't even notice this due to the invisible Nomus attacking them.

The ninjas were eventually taken down by the Nomus, and Kurogiri's clone came through to drain the remaining nine of their chakra. After draining a total of forty ninjas of their chakra, Kurogiri felt that his spiritual space was full, and his body was in pain due to the large amount of chakra. Kurogiri was lucky that they each didn't have a lot of chakra so narrowly avoided overloading himself.

Deciding to absorb half the energy into his body, Kurogiri dismissed the clones in the area and sat to focus on absorbing the chakra. He didn't even bother to hide, and sat in front of the pile of unconscious ninja. As he absorbed the chakra, Kurogiri had his clone hide in Rin's shadow, conveying to her that she wouldn't have to come back to the hospital the next day.

Kurogiri knew that by tomorrow, the Village Hidden in the Grass would change ownership.
