BFTS: Chapter 207

"Hmm... why did he stop?"
Just as Kazeyuki, the young man, was about to give in to despair, Kenshi suddenly stopped. The young man stopped too, looking at Kenshi with a hint of doubt.
Could it be that the other side's chakra couldn't hold up any longer?
The moment this possibility came to mind, a spark of heat flashed in the young man's eyes. He wanted to kill Kenshi.
However, when he saw Kenshi's eyes looking at him with a longing gaze, as if he were looking at a beautiful woman, the heat in his eyes instantly turned icy cold.
Whoosh!
Without hesitation, he turned and ran away, completely ignoring his two companions.
He had become famous at a young age. He was able to survive the brutal Second Shinobi World War because of his decisiveness, just like when he escaped from the White Fang of Konoha.
It was just that...
Boom!
Kazeyuki, who had just turned and started running, suddenly tripped over something and fell to the ground. He lay motionless.
It was clear that he didn't have the same luck as when he escaped from the White Fang of Konoha.
Kenshi walked over and picked up the young man, whose body control had been stripped by the Perception Deprivation Technique. The experiment was complete. The young man's Wind Release talent was indeed worth making into a Wind Release clone.
"Damn it, let go of Kazeyuki-sama."
The two Hidden Sand chūnin saw this scene. They got up and ran towards Kenshi, their eyes devoid of fear of death. It showed their loyalty to the young man.
Kazeyuki, the young Sand ninja, had fallen too quickly. They hadn't realized that they had been abandoned by him.
"Take care of them."
Kenshi turned to Yezi and said this. Then, he picked up the Sand ninja and flew into the sky.
"Understood."
Seeing Kenshi directly fly into the sky in front of the two Hidden Sand ninjas, using a jutsu technique that didn't match his identity as a member of Akatsuki, Yezi instantly understood what Kenshi meant by take care of them.
"Genjutsu - Falling Leaf Technique!"
"Paper Release - Flying Paper Explosive Tag Technique!"
Yezi's genjutsu combined with the Flying Paper Explosive Tag Technique to cleanly and neatly kill the two Hidden Sand ninjas. She didn't care about the no-killing principle that Yahiko had mentioned before setting out.
Although she had been very happy in Akatsuki for the past two years, she had gotten along very well with Yahiko and the others, and she respected Yahiko's ideals.
But she was no longer a little girl.
She also knew why she and the Boss had joined Yahiko and the others.
They would leave Akatsuki sooner or later.
It seemed like it was time to leave Akatsuki after today.
Yezi thought to herself.
At this moment, at an altitude of 10,000 meters.
On the back of the clay bird, the Wind Release shadow clone had been created. Kenshi didn't rush to come down. In his hand, a ball of Wind Release chakra, copied and condensed, gathered into a ball of flowing wind like threads.
"The thinner, the sharper!"
This was a characteristic of Wind Release chakra nature transformation. Kazeyuki's Wind Release had clearly gone further in this characteristic.
Kazeyuki's Wind Release chakra condensed wind that was so thin that it could cut cells at the microscopic level.
Generally speaking, even the sharpest knife couldn't cut through cells. Compared to the size of cells, the sharpest knife tip was like a large hammer. It only achieved the effect of cutting by squeezing the cells to one side or crushing them. It didn't actually cut through individual cells at the microscopic level.
But Kazeyuki's Wind Release chakra condensed wind that could directly cut through cells.
"This is similar to the attack effect of Naruto's Wind Release Rasengan later on."
Kenshi suddenly thought.
Naruto's Wind Release Rasengan attack had Wind Release chakra condensed into countless tiny wind needles, directly piercing and destroying cells at the microscopic level.
But unlike Naruto, who only developed one Wind Release Rasengan, Kazeyuki had developed a series of Wind Release jutsu.
Flowing Wind Armor was the culmination of them all. Like the Cloud Village's Lightning Release armor, it was a combination of offense, defense, and speed. Its passive dodging ability, like the Rokushigan Paper Arts, was terrifyingly enhanced. Even Kenshi's current taijutsu attacks couldn't break through it.
"Strange... why wasn't someone this powerful mentioned in the original work?"
"Not only him, but Ōnoki's daughter is the same."
Kenshi was a little curious. He casually retracted the Wind Release chakra in his hand and instead used the Steel Release kekkei genkai chakra he had copied from Hito to condense a bright steel ball.
The last time they met, Hito didn't know Steel Release. He couldn't believe that she had mastered this powerful kekkei genkai when he saw her again.
Steel Release... Kenshi remembered that it appeared in the original work or a movie, but he didn't remember who it was. It definitely wasn't Hito, and it didn't seem like it directly created steel. It just made the body's hardness the same as steel. It was a pure physical defense kekkei genkai.
To be honest, the body strength that kind of Steel Release kekkei genkai gave wasn't necessarily stronger than the Earth Release jutsu that Kenshi had obtained from Kakuzu, which hardened his body like Earth Release spears.
At most, because it was a fusion of Earth and Lightning Release attributes, Steel Release might not be as easily countered by Lightning Release.
But in terms of practicality, it definitely wasn't as powerful as Hito's Steel Release kekkei genkai, which could directly create steel to attack.
This kekkei genkai, combined with the Third Kazekage's Magnet Release, could unleash a power that was far greater than one plus one.
Even without Magnet Release, Steel Release was still a very powerful kekkei genkai. With such a powerful kekkei genkai, logically, the chances of surviving the Third Shinobi World War should have been very high.
However, it wasn't mentioned later in the original work.
Did she die during this time?
Forget it. He wouldn't dwell on this.
Kenshi shook his head. With a thought, he used Dust Release to turn the steel ball in his hand to ashes.
Although White Zetsu and Madara must know that he had the ability to copy other people's kekkei genkai, he didn't want White Zetsu to know that he had learned Steel Release so easily.
So, it was better to turn the steel ball to ashes.
"From now on, continue to develop your Wind Release chakra nature transformation towards thinner and sharper slashes. Don't worry about anything else."
Kenshi said.
"Understood."
The Wind Release clone smiled and replied.
Boom!
Kenshi punched the Wind Release clone in the chest, causing it to be seriously injured. His companions were all dead. It made sense for the clone to be injured a little.
This feeling... it was quite strange.
The Wind Release clone was also Kenshi himself. He was hitting himself. This was the first time he had experienced this.
Boom!
Kenshi landed and casually threw the Wind Release clone, who was pretending to be unconscious, aside. He called to Yezi to leave.
"What about that guy? Are you just going to leave him alone?" Yezi looked back at the unconscious Sand ninja and frowned.
"No need." Kenshi shook his head, not explaining much.
Hearing this, Yezi didn't ask any more questions. But the Boss had already violated Yahiko's words by killing two Hidden Sand ninjas and letting that Sand ninja go. There was a high chance that Yahiko would find out later.
"Is the Boss planning to leave Yahiko and the others?" Yezi couldn't help but ask.
White Zetsu, hiding underground, was also paying attention here. He was also curious why Kenshi had let that Sand ninja go alone. Was he really planning to leave Nagato's side?
"Don't worry. He won't leave." Kenshi smiled and said. These words were for White Zetsu.
Could it be that this guy, Kenshi, used a genjutsu on that Sand ninja, so he wasn't worried about the fact that he had killed people being leaked?
White Zetsu guessed.
No matter what, as long as Kenshi didn't leave Nagato's side.
White Zetsu continued to follow Kenshi.
Yezi asked, "Should we go back now or go find Yahiko and the others?"
Kenshi smiled. "Of course, we'll go find Yahiko and the others."
Kenshi hadn't forgotten that his mission was to protect the Rinnegan in Nagato's body.
This time, he didn't know who came from Konoha, or how strong they were. What if they were a genin in the open, but their strength could suddenly burst into Kage level, a ten-thousand-year genin, and destroy Nagato's Rinnegan?
So, it was better to keep an eye on things.
White Zetsu thought the same way, so he didn't stop Kenshi from going to find Yahiko.
Now that Obito had found someone to pour his love into and had formed a bond, White Zetsu's control over Kenshi wasn't as strict as it was at the beginning.
This time, the Konoha ninjas who came to make trouble for Akatsuki, even if Kenshi killed them all, he wouldn't mind.
