Background / History
The Enma Clan's summoning contract was considered more valuable than contracts with Ryūchi Cave, Mount Myōboku, or Shikkotsu Forest during negotiations between Kumogakure and Konoha, carrying a value of 150 points. Hiruzen Sarutobi's contract was treated as a core Konoha asset. 41
