I'd suggest using Lesser Planar Ally to call a Large Water Elemental or an Adult Tojanida. Both have a 90 foot swim speed, and can take run actions underwater, so they can move 360 feet per round when going straight. I figure this may be increased by gravity and pressure when descending, and similarly reduced by those factors when ascending, but nonetheless it's better than what a Kraken can do even with its Jet ability. The water elemental will be practically invisible underwater (I don't think it'd be visible except at extremely close range, since all it really is is living water). The tojanida can produce an ink cloud similar to a kraken's, which could obscure the krakens' vision long enough for the tojanida to swim past, snatch up the corpse, and swim back up. It might even go around a little ways after picking up the corpse, then head upwards while the krakens may expect it to try passing through the ink cloud again.
