Chapter 691: Fujin's Righteousness!
A wry smile appeared behind Fujin's mask. The advantage that the jutsu had was itself a lethal disadvantage. The jutsu was less of an attacking jutsu and more of a suicidal jutsu!
Fujin continued thinking, 'Due to the high chakra density, the jutsu can't be thrown at a great speed. Instead, it moves at a snail's pace and I can't even use winds to speed it up like I can with a normal Rasengan. Whoever uses this jutsu will definitely be hit and die along with his or her enemies. The only way to feasibly use this jutsu is by teleporting it through Flying Thunder God marks…'
One of the main reasons why Fujin had talked about Lightning having to be wild and unpredictable was to confuse the Kumo ninjas. Due to his words, they felt what he did was an application of Lightning manipulation when, in fact, it was a Space Time technique. Even though Darui and the rest had doubts, they suppressed them due to Fujin's words and convinced themselves that what they saw was a pure application of Lightning manipulation.
After creating the jutsu, Fujin merely teleported the sphere at a Flying Thunder God mark which wasn't neither too close to the Kumo ninjas nor too far away from them. This ensured that they wouldn't die but would be injured enough to make them take his threat very seriously and make several preparations to deal with 'Akuro' the next time.
Fujin thought, 'Hence, that jutsu is still incomplete. It's even worse than Rasenshuriken in this regard. Even though it doesn't hurt the arm like Rasenshuriken does, the user will be hurt way more than the target. That is why, even Sage Mode won't be a help to overcome this drawback.
Perhaps the Lightning Chakra Mode might help, though I'll need to test this jutsu on Ay in order to be sure. The other option is to learn how to control the direction in which the Lightning is launched after the sphere explodes.
Currently, only a fraction of the actual attack hits the enemy due to the omnidirectional nature of the jutsu. If I could control the direction of the Lightning after it explodes, it would not only remove the drawback but also increase the effective power of the jutsu by at least 2 times without having to spend any additional chakra. However, this is also very difficult because I'll need to modify the jutsu considerably…
Another issue, which I may not be able to fix, is that I can't amplify this jutsu with either the Blade of the Thunder Spirit or the Kiba Blades like other Lightning jutsus because this jutsu isn't like other Lightning jutsus. The presence of Rasengan is too big of an interference for normal amplification to work.
The only help I can get is with the Lightning that I infuse into the Rasengan. That can be amplified by the blade, saving me a considerable amount of chakra even though the amount of Lightning chakra lost during the process of fusing it into the Rasengan increases. So, the chakra I need to create Saisho no Hikari is around half what I need for Rasenshuriken…'
Fujin thought about the issues with the jutsu for some time before taking a deep breath. He turned his attention towards the barrier and muttered, "I'll continue working on this jutsu later. If I can modify it, it'll be a much more lethal weapon in my arsenal. Even if I can't, that's not a worry since I can still use it along with the Flying Thunder God jutsu. Not to mention, I still have Kirin. Anyway… Why are these lunatics maintaining such a massive barrier?"The barrier surrounding Kumogakure was truly ridiculous. Fujin could sense its immense power. He believed that even Kurama would fail to tear it down.
Fujin wondered, 'Did anyone else threaten them as well? Or did they do it just because Ay, Bee, Darui and Yugito were out of the village? But that doesn't make much sense. Even without them, there should be thousands of capable ninjas here. Who'd dare to attack them openly?'
Had Shikaku seen the barrier, he'd have chuckled. While planning to destroy the bases, he had to consider a lot of variables. Ay and Bee were the two biggest variables, but the large number of ninjas in Kumogakure was a big variable as well.
Hence, he planned his moves in such a way that Kumogakure would be vulnerable to being attacked for some time. It'd force them to stay holed up inside the village, giving Fujin a free hand for a few hours until they could realize Konoha's real target.
According to his initial calculations, Fujin would've been able to destroy just 3 bases before being forced to retreat. That wasn't enough for him and Hiruzen. However, this little threat would have given Fujin enough time to eliminate the five closest bases before Kumo could react.
Of course, Shikaku underestimated Fujin's capabilities big time due to not having the complete information. Fujin was able to eliminate 6 bases instead of 3 in the very first round. However, Shikaku's genius still showed. If Fujin had stayed focused on eliminating the bases instead of spending his efforts on reading memories of the dead ninjas and changing his target to Kumogakure, he'd have had enough time to completely eliminate 8 to 9 bases before Darui gave the order to disband!
After thinking for a bit, Fujin got an idea about why Kumogakure was feeling so threatened and what Shikaku's plans were. A smirk appeared on his face as he muttered to himself, 'As expected of Shikaku. I didn't even consider this aspect. Oh well, let me go and see how prepared they truly are.
I still don't understand how Akatsuki was able to sneak inside their village and target the two Jinchuriki so easily. A hidden village becoming so careless and irresponsible is disappointing. Even more so considering that this is the village that has given the highest priority to its military when compared to other major villages.
The three former Raikage might have rolled in their grave in the future. Even though Kumogakure is an enemy, for the time being, that is still too painful for me to see. To ensure that the dead can continue resting peacefully, I can only act now and get them on the right path.'
With such righteousness in his heart, Fujin moved towards one of the strongest hidden villages by himself despite having just around half of his chakra reserves! He quickly snuck close to the barrier and observed it carefully. He analyzed, 'Hmm, yeah, I can't break through as expected. Luckily, the barrier can't stop seals.'
Fujin placed his hand on the ground and a Flying Thunder God mark appeared just a few inches away from the barrier. The mark moved by itself inside the barrier. As good as the barrier was, it couldn't sense a Space Time seal moving through it. After all, the barrier was specialized to handle powerful beings like the Tailed Beasts and enemy armies.
As soon as that seal was a few inches inside the barrier, Fujin teleported and appeared inside the barrier. He transformed into a random face and flickered a few times to reach the inner areas of the village while hiding his chakra.
The Raikage's building finally appeared in his sight. As he looked at it, Fujin observed, 'Hmm, the ninjas here are very alert. The normal civilians look on edge too. I suppose that's to be expected considering the barrier. Oh well…'
With a chuckle, he casually strolled down the streets of Kumogakure. As he observed, Fujin thought, 'Now that I think about it, this is the first time I'm visiting any other major hidden village. I heard that oyaki here is especially delicious… Unfortunately, all the restaurants are closed. What a shame. I wanted to take a few parcels to eat later. Oh well, I suppose there's always a next time.'
Fujin continued strolling until he reached the Raikage's building. Initially, no one found him suspicious as there were a few civilians moving around. However, seeing a civilian approach the Raikage's building, a few ninjas immediately approached him. One of them shouted, "Hey you! What are you doing here?"
His and the eyes of other Kumo ninjas widened as the 'civilian' disappeared in front of their eyes! Not one of them saw his movements. They couldn't help but exclaim, "What was that?"
"More importantly, who was that? And where did he go?"
"Shit, we need to inform Lady Mabui."
"Hurry! He might be an enemy. We need to take care of him immediately!"
That small group of ninjas immediately rushed inside the building and reported to their superior, who immediately rushed to report to Mabui.
