Chapter 683: Lightning Combat System!
The Lightning vortex in front of Fujin stopped spinning for a moment before spinning in the opposite direction at an even faster speed! From the center of the vortex, hundreds of Lightning Crows flew out into the sky every second!
C's expression became ugly as he muttered, "He used the Lightning absorbed by that vortex to create this jutsu. His chakra has barely decreased at all despite using such a massive jutsu."
Realizing that Darui's chakra was now being used against them, the Kumo ninjas had an ugly expression. Standing behind C, Jin said, "Yes, his techniques are exceptional. I haven't seen anyone fight in this manner in my entire life. He can hide his chakra within a roasted chicken, use chakra threads to control its bones, has excellent speed and strength, can amplify his chakra instantly and can even utilize our Lightning jutsus against us. As peculiar as he is, there is no doubt about the threat he poses. We shouldn't hold back anymore."
If Fujin could hear their conversation, he would have chuckled. His Lightning combat system was quite unique. In fact, he hadn't even planned most of it. When he started creating it, he only focused on 3 points.
The first was using Lightning to enhance his body's speed. He had a decent amount of success in this aspect due to the jutsus in Konoha's library even though he was still very far from the Raikage's level. Copying Kakashi's Chidori along with his swordplay also made Fujin's close combat skills excellent.
The second was the speed of his weapons. Fujin had complete success in this aspect. He was definitely among the best in the world in controlling Lightning-charged weapons. Their speed and penetrative power made it very difficult for enemies to defend. It was his substitute for the Vacuum Bullets.
And the last aspect was strong Lightning jutsus. By supercharging the False Darkness jutsu and improving his control over the jutsus with Yin and Yang manipulation, Fujin had sufficient skill in this aspect as well.
Backed by his basics, Fujin felt that these three aspects should be enough for him to be able to confront weaker rank S ninjas and even kill Elite Jounins. In the future, once he could get his hands on the Lightning Chakra Mode, he would be able to go up against top-tier rank S ninjas with just his Lightning release.
However, through several strokes of luck, Fujin's Lightning combat system had become far more sophisticated. The first stroke of luck was undoubtedly meeting a kind Ame ninja who donated the Blade of the Thunder Spirit to Fujin's cause. It allowed Fujin to conserve his chakra while creating insanely overpowered Lightning jutsus in the blink of an eye!
The next stroke of luck was accidentally creating the Lightning vortex jutsu while he was training. It was an excellent defensive jutsu, something that was very rare in Lightning Release. However, it excelled against enemy Lightning users.
The vortex could absorb all of his enemy's Lightning and allowed Fujin to use it instead. Even though he couldn't amplify it with the Blade of the Thunder Spirit, it was extremely restrictive for an enemy specializing in Lightning Release. After all, not everyone could create a cloak of Lightning to fight like the Raikages.
And the third stroke of luck was gaining the Kiba Blades. It helped Fujin to control natural Lightning and allowed him to create Kirin, giving Fujin a lethal attack. In addition, since the Kiba blades also had an amplification aspect, Kirin didn't leave him completely drained.
As a result, Fujin's Lightning combat system had unexpectedly become very efficient in terms of chakra and hence made his 'Akuro' identity very resilient. Even without the Lightning Chakra Mode, Fujin had some confidence in resisting top-tier rank S ninjas and escaping successfully. Perhaps, only the likes of Hiruzen, Ay and Onoki could force him to escape using the Flying Thunder God jutsu. Not to mention, Fujin was excited to see what level he would reach if he managed to get his hands on the Lightning Chakra Mode.
Seeing thousands of Lightning crows diving towards them, Yugito unleashed Matatabi's chakra once again. This time, her chakra cloak took Matatabi's form properly. The Lightning crows hit the gigantic fire cat with full force, however, the fire in her chakra cloak destroyed all the Lightning crows with ease. Not even a single lightning spark reached Yugito or the ninjas behind her!
Fujin sighed and muttered to himself, 'As expected, even an attack of this scale won't work...'
He looked as Matatabi's right paw covered the skies above him and moved down to crush him while thinking, 'I guess it's time to use that tactic, otherwise, I really might get pummeled by her...'
They quickly caught up with him, but Fujin had already killed 7 Kumo ninjas. The sight of their dead comrades enraged them. They were about to attack Fujin when he moved away rapidly without even glancing at their group. Instead, he used his superior speed to target the weaker Kumo ninjas.
Darui could no longer bear it and immediately increased his speed to go after Fujin. Yugito wanted to do the same but the presence of weaker allies restricted her. She could no longer attack indiscriminately.
Fujin glanced behind and thought, 'While I don't particularly care about the lives of these Kumo ninjas, they certainly do. With these weaker ninjas around, Yugito will be restrained. Even though Jinchurikis are treated slightly better in Kumo, in truth, it's just due to the Raikage taking every precaution.
The common people and even most ninjas still fear them, they just don't dare to say anything openly. If she injures any Kumo ninja, the ones who find Ay an eyesore will take the opportunity to make her life harder. So, with Yugito restrained, I'll have some room to breathe. I can use these weaker ninjas as meat shields and distractions to restrict their teamwork as well.'
Even though Fujin killed over 700 Kumo ninjas, he didn't really hate them. For him, it was a simple mission. Their deaths were neither beneficial nor detrimental to him. The only ones with whom he had a reason to be hostile were Darui's squad. After all, they killed his previous teammates and nearly killed him as well. However, Fujin didn't particularly hate them either.
He fell into that situation only because he wasn't strong enough. Over the course of his career as a ninja, he himself had put thousands of other ninjas in the same position. At the end of the day, it was only a matter of who was strong and who was weak. Fujin didn't see any point in fostering hatred over things that were completely normal in the ninja world.
So, the only reason why he made a move against the weaker ninjas was to distract the stronger ninjas. In fact, considering the situation, they were actually more useful to him alive than dead. He only killed a few to send a message to the Kumo elites.
