All six of Kuro's demonic cores had suffered catastrophic damage from the explosion of the mechanical sovereign. Kuro had tried to fight his way to save Katsuo but it seems he never made it to him. Kuro's undying body apparently saved him using a final spark from his rinnegan enhanced blood Kuro was rebuilt from a decimated corpse buried beneath ash, sand, and stone. A single drop of blood took ten years to rebuild the fallen sage's body. Pain and darkness were all that awaited Kuro after 10 years of oblivion and tormented dreams. Lost loved ones, cherished family, a village that had once depended on him now and then. As much as the urge swept through him Kuro found that he could not cry. Although the reason he was able to awaken at all was because the rains had trickled down to where he had been buried by the explosion. Runic terran seals began to light up as Kuro's telekinesis kicked in and began to free him from his predicament. There were 3 things on his mind that allowed his power to slowly awaken. REVENGE, FAMILY, RESTORATION... All of those whom had plotted against Sunagakure would pay. All those whom had raised their weapons against his friends and family would pay. No matter how much pain he was in he circulated his dark energies through each of his hearts. Kuro distinctly felt his elemental affinities were in place but the seals and runes that allowed their use that were bonded to his mind and soul had been shattered. Many of his former arts of war and feats of ninjutsu would have to be reacquired and then allowed to absorb the intent of his original mastery as he mastered skills and jutsu anew. After clearing a path to the surface Kuro emerged into the vast desert once more. As his senses flared he found his first few meals waiting for him by a tiny spring where water was bubbling up to the surface.
Twenty medium to large size dustboars were within view but Kuro would only pick one. It was old and weary and with two cracked tusks it was mostly alone but within view of the younglings. With a quick surge of energy the dustboar found himself paralyzed before Kuro struck it in the back of the head with a taijutsu/genjutsu combination. Kuro carried the beast away and after a quick prayer of thanks to his ancestors Kuro killed, skinned, butchered, and set aside the differing portions of meats, bones, and sturdy hide. With his skills and telekinesis not a single portion of the boar was wasted. The hide was soon fashioned into knee length pants. The bones and remaining intestines were cleaned in a manner that only a master could accomplish and then after being twisted and tied became a load bearing vest. Another piece of hide was worked over and scoured to a pristine state, after turning the remaining blood into ink after mixing it with kendu root and powdered blackstone was made into a seal which could be used to store the uneaten meat and remaining leather. Content with himself, Kuro headed towards Sunagakure using the stars as his guide since the landscape had changed.
