Chapter 563: Displaying Kekkei Genkai
"Come at me with all you got. Don't hide anything, including your Kekkei Genkai."
The eyes of the 5 kids widened slightly. They were under strict orders from Hokage to not expose their Kekkei Genkai to anyone except their trainers. They weren't sure if Fujin knew about it or not. To their surprise, he did.
Being the oldest among the 5 and being the unofficial leader, Sayaka said, "Lord Hokage told us to never expose our Kekkei Genkai. If we use it here, others might see."
Fujin replied, "It's fine. You can use them when I allow you to use them. No one will see it here when I am with you. Of course, you shouldn't use it if there is someone else along with us here but it's fine for now. Any more questions?"
The 5 kids shook their heads. Fujin said, "Good. Come at me with the intention to kill. We start NOW!"
As soon as they heard Fujin shout 'now', all 5 grabbed shurikens and threw at Fujin in one smooth action without any hesitation. Unlike the normal academy students and newly graduated Genins, they didn't have any qualms about trying to kill.
Fujin's right eye twitched at that sight as he muttered to himself, 'The time they spent in the Root wasn't entirely wasted.'
The shurikens ripped through Fujin, or rather his after image which dispersed moments later. Instead, they saw him standing a few steps to his right.
However, all the 5 kids had expected it. While they didn't know exactly how strong Fujin was, all of them knew that he was one of the few Elite Jounins in Konoha. Though they weren't sure how strong Elite Jounins were either, they knew that he would at least be stronger than their teachers.
Even before the Shurikens reached Fujin, four of them had grabbed their tanto and all 5 of them rushed towards Fujin. Sayaka was taking the lead. Just behind her were Yuji, Takeshi and Hikari who were moving together. Shoma was moving behind them. He was the only one not holding a tanto. Instead, he weaved hand seals which Fujin identified at a glance.
Sayaka reached Fujin and stabbed her tanto towards his heart. However, a sword appeared in Fujin's hand and blocked the tanto. Sayaka was about to follow up with a few kicks, but her eyes widened as she was suddenly flung backwards by a few dozen meters as Fujin swung his blade. She thought in disbelief, 'What strength!'
Fujin didn't have any time to check on her as the next wave of assault reached him. Yuji attacked Fujin's neck, Takeshi attacked his legs while Hikari moved around Fujin and tried to stab him in his back. Updated from n0velb(i)n.c(o)/m
Fujin was impressed by their teamwork. He thought, 'Not bad. At least in terms of formations and teamwork, they are far ahead of the Academy kids. Even among Genins, very few would match them. That said, this isn't exactly what I wanted to see.'
Fujin stepped a few steps backwards, creating distance between him and the two boys and not letting Hikari move behind him. He used his sword to divert her tanto and slapped her away with the flat side of his sword.
In one smooth motion, he changed the direction of his sword and swung it at Yuji who had jumped in the air. In a panic, Yuji stopped his attack and tried to defend himself. Though he saved himself, he was sent flying just like Sayaka.
Despite sending Yuji flying, his sword continued its fluid motion and hit Takeshi's tanto, knocking it out of his hand. A moment later, a kick landed on Takeshi's abdomen, sending him flying for a few meters as well. At the same time, chakra began flowing through his sword.
Despite dodging by a comfortable distance, Fujin felt a cold breeze due to how cold the ice darts were. He analyzed, 'Impressive. If I had defended using Iron Skin jutsu, even though darts wouldn't have pierced my body, the cold itself would have damaged my body to an extent.'
Fujin's eyes turned from Sayaka to Yuji as Yuji fired a bolt of Lightning at Fujin. Fujin flickered again but the bolt of Lightning took a hard right turn and followed to his new location, forcing him to flicker again.
A grin appeared on Yuji's face as he thought, 'You can't escape from my Lightning! No one can move as fast as Lightning. I'll chase you until it hits you.'
Meanwhile, Fujin analyzed, 'So, this is the Storm Release. I did see Darui use it, but our fight was very brief. Though Yuji's power in the Lightning isn't very impressive, his control is very good. Even my control over Lightning is nowhere near as good as his.'
Fujin continued flickering. The smirks that had formed on the faces of the kids faded away. A frown formed on Sayaka's face as she wondered, 'I am supposed to assist Yuji with Ice Petals. But, how can I do so when I can't even follow his movements? We need to send him close to Takeshi!'
Yuji was stumped as well. He thought, 'Even though no one can move as fast as Lightning, I can't follow his movements. He flickers right when I change the direction of my Lightning bolt. I won't be able to hit him at this rate.'
Similarly, Shoma and Hikari were serious as well. According to their tactic, they would follow up if the initial attack failed. However, they couldn't even follow Fujin's movements!
Even so, the kids didn't give up. Yuji continued attacking Fujin while Sayaka launched a few rounds of Ice Petals by estimating Fujin's location. After dodging a few times, Fujin understood their intentions and thought, 'They want to divert me towards Takeshi. Let's see what they are planning.'
Since they were unable to divert him towards Takeshi, Fujin himself went towards him. As soon as Takeshi saw Fujin coming close, he grasped his chance.
