Given the large number of cases hanging only on me and the impossibility to delegate them to someone else in the clan - due to lack of qualifications or simply the need to maintain secrecy, I inevitably had to increase the number of permanently active clones. At first glance, it was no big deal - if I had been practicing this technique for years, what would three or four more clones do on top of the usual? In fact, nothing, except the usual property of human memory - forgetting unnecessary memories under a large number of new ones.
It took quite a long time before I realized that I was beginning to forget not only small details of my past life, but also quite tangible fragments - like names and faces of very close friends, birth dates of my sons and similar things, which could not be restored even in deep meditation.
I tried to fight this by stimulating the parts of the brain responsible for memory with the help of chakra, as well as specially designed for such Iryonian techniques that improve the overall work, but it only slowed down the process to some extent - already excellent memory improved even more, allowing me to remember even small details of the life lived here, but the "old memory" was slowly disappearing.
After a few small experiments, I was forced to admit that when I was born again, the memories I had were recorded not in the brain of a baby, which was not capable of processing such a huge amount of information, but on a completely different medium that had nothing to do with the body - chakra. Moreover, the possibility of such a thing had been proven in this world - Yamanaka were experts in working with consciousness.
Actually, having determined the reasons, I went to bow to the blond brainiac. Even despite the status of an ally and excellent relations in the triple alliance, I had to lay out a good deal of money for the necessary equipment, and not so much in money, although they also gave them five million re, as services - iryonin first degree, if not on the crust, then on the possibilities of course, are not on the road and the goods are piece and very rare in these times. But the memory jutsu was not even a clan hijutsu, even though it was Bee-ranked, but the head Yamanaka stubborn. I agreed to do so because there was no alternative, but I made a note of it.
In addition to a slight improvement in thought processes, organizing and structuring memory based on the chakra component, the technique, which didn't even have a name, allowed me to master "downloading" the memory of dispelled clones past consciousness.
