The three had been pursuing Sasori's location all this time.
"Once anything happens, my three subordinates will report it... They're very capable, you know... Hee-hee..."
Hiruko grinned, excitement showing in his eyes.
He wasn't alone.
Hiruko had three subordinates.
Their names were "One," "Two," and "Three."
Each had inherited part of Hiruko's Chimera Technique.

then...

A young Kakashi would be "5."
His own Essence was "10."
Sasori, with only a piece of flesh remaining... was also "10."
Hiruko didn't know how Sasori had managed to retain such an enormous amount of Chakra despite having only a
