493 Chapter 487 : Blade of the Thunder Spirit

Seeing Fujin in pain, the grin grew wider on the Ame ninja's face. His teammates grinned as well. He said, "That's the price you pay for your arrogance. Finish him!"

His subordinates quickly moved to finish Fujin off like they had killed innumerable other ninjas using the same combination attack. Dozens of shurikens were launched at Fujin's vital organs and neck.

To their surprise, Fujin suddenly stopped screaming and said in a mischievous tone that didn't suit his deep voice, "Just kidding…"

At that very instant, three lightning spears suddenly shot out from where Fujin was standing. The sudden development caught everyone off guard. In the blink of an eye, the lightning spears had knocked off all incoming shurikens and stabbed through the hearts of the three Ame ninjas. All fell dead without any struggle.

While the Lightning spears were launched, Fujin thought, 'I guess I have finalized the name and the backstory of this identity. I wonder who would be the first one to hear this bullshit story, hehehe.'

The leader's eyes widened. Fujin let go of the sword and the Ame Jounin immediately retreated away from Fujin. Fujin looked at him and said, "Second Hokage's Blade of the Thunder Spirit. That's a rather impressive weapon. Whether you join your subordinates or not depends on whether or not you are able to impress me."

Fujin thought, 'While I barely recall this sword, I have no recollection of what the skills of this sword are… The scroll in the library only mentioned the ability to shock others and to cut through chakra. But, if the ability is so lousy, then it wouldn't be a weapon that a Hokage would use. I hope he can showcase some skill.'

While Fujin was thinking casually, the Ame Jounin was terrified! Fear was visible on his face. He thought, 'How was he able to endure the electric shocks? Who is he? And how did he kill 3 Jounins in the blink of an eye? Even I wouldn't be able to do that!'

The Ame Jounin was completely on guard. All his attention was focused on Fujin. He didn't dare to make the first move again. Instead, he asked, "Who are you? What do you want?"

Fujin replied, "No one famous, I guess. I used to go by the name Akuro. As for what I want, I was just passing by until you fellows decided to stop me."

The Ame Jounin was even more confused. He wondered, 'Used to go by? What does he mean by that? Also, was he really just passing by? No way. He should have some goal in mind.'

He quickly said, "My village is led by a God and an Angel. If you attack me, God will judge and kill you."

Fujin replied, "Eh, a God and an Angel descended into this world? Alright. I'll go pay them a visit later. As for you, do you want to join your subordinates or do you want to fight for your life?"

The Ame Jounin's mood became even worse on being looked down so much. He shouted, "Don't underestimate me! Lightning Dragon!"

He swung his sword towards Fujin. A large amount of lightning was unleashed from the sword. It took the form of a Dragon and dived towards Fujin at a fast speed. At the same time, he opened an umbrella and launched a rain of poisonous needles towards Fujin.

To his surprise, Fujin once again extended his left arm forward and stopped the Lightning Dragon's head with his left palm! In less than a second, the entire dragon hit Fujin's palm, but he stayed still. The Lightning Dragon dissipated, leaving only a few Lightning charges around Fujin's palm.

The Ame Jounin wondered, 'Is he immune to Lightning? But how can that be? In terms of destruction, nothing comes close to Lightning. Especially when it comes from this sword. How do I fight him?'

Fujin saw the incoming needle rain and just waved his left palm. All the Lightning he had absorbed from the Lightning Dragon was released and formed an Electric Field in front of him. It blocked or deflected every needle heading towards him.

Having no other choice, the Ame Jounin attacked once again. He swung his sword but aimed it at the sky instead of Fujin.

'Lightning Release: Lightning Crows jutsu'

A large amount of Lightning was unleashed once again. It reached around 50 meters above the ground. Around a hundred small crows made of Lightning were formed. Each one of them dived towards Fujin.

The Ame Jounin quickly weaved hand seals while the Lightning Crows were diving towards Fujin.

'Water Release: Exploding Water Colliding Wave jutsu'

He spat out a large amount of water creating huge waves. Without waiting to see how the jutsus worked, he turned around and began escaping.

Fujin observed the attack and analyzed, 'Weird... Very weird… The amount of chakra he is using doesn't match the amount of chakra it should take to form such a large jutsus. His chakra consumption should have been ten times higher. Does the sword have an amplification effect?

If so, I can see why Tobirama used this sword. He was famous for his water jutsus. Using this sword, he could seamlessly use the Water-Lightning combination jutsus. Not to mention, his chakra consumption will be much less. In a war, this could be the deciding factor between victory and death.'

When Fujin had just become a Genin, his favorite battle tactic was staying in the background and forcing his opponents to consume all their chakra. While he used that tactic more because he was subconsciously afraid to put himself at greater risk, this tactic was disgustingly effective against opponents who had lesser chakra. As such, he could easily see how much benefit the sword would be in a war.

This time, Fujin raised both his palms which were covered in Lightning.

'Lightning Release: Lightning Vortex jutsu'

Fujin released several Lightning charges which began spinning at a rapid speed forming a Lightning Vortex. It was a defensive jutsu that Fujin had created by himself.

The Lightning Crows slammed into the Lightning Vortex in four waves. As soon as the crows entered the vortex, they would become unstable and dissolve back into pure lightning and be absorbed by the vortex. As a result, the Lightning Vortex kept getting stronger!

Once the bombardment stopped, Fujin controlled the vortex and slammed it as well as his hands into the ground.

'Lightning Release: Lightning Rage jutsu'

In a moment, a blastwave of Lightning was unleashed towards the incoming water wave. As strong as the water jutsu was, Fujin's jutsu was strengthened by the Lightning Crow jutsu unleashed with the help of the sword. As a result, the two jutsus were at completely different levels! The blastwave of Lightning tore through the water wave, completely dispersing it in different directions!

Fujin let out a sigh and muttered, "How disappointing…"

A senbon appeared in Fujin's left hand. Fujin's lightning chakra began flowing through the needle as he threw it towards the Ame Jounin who was escaping.

As he escaped, the Ame Jounin turned around to see what the loud noise was. His eyes widened as he saw his water jutsu getting blasted away mercilessly! Suddenly, he noticed a small shiny object surrounded by blue sparks piercing through several trees. Before he could react, the lightning-charged senbon pierced through his heart!

His eyes widened in disbelief. He looked towards his chest as his jacket was being dyed red with his blood. As he lost his footing and dropped to the ground from the branches he was running on, he looked forward and saw the lightning-charged senbon continuing forward while piercing several more trees until it escaped beyond what he could observe.

A few seconds later, his eyes closed as he followed his three subordinates into the afterlife. Fujin flickered next to him and took the sword hilt from his hands.

Fujin observed the Vajra-shaped hilt and inserted some chakra into the sword. Once again, a Thunder Blade appeared. Fujin observed the blade as he continued analyzing, 'That said, though it can be used to conserve chakra, it isn't strong enough to create an impact in any other way in a fight between rank S ninjas.

Then again, even though Tobirama lost this sword during his death, he didn't leak the correct methods of using this sword as the scroll in the library said. Those should be with Hiruzen or Danzo. Even though Amegakure had this sword for some time, they shouldn't have unlocked all its secrets. If that is the case, then it might have more secrets.

Oh well, let me see what this generous fellow knows.'

Fujin placed his palm on the Ame Jounin's head and began reading his memories.

[A/N: There is very little information about this sword as it only appeared in one filler (and apparently a game later on). So its applications will all come from me. If you guys have some cool ideas for this sword's power, feel free to drop them in the comments (though nothing too overpowered). I'll use them if I like it :) ]

[A/N : Bonus chapter on next Sunday if the fic gets 1000 Power Stones. Bonus chapter on next week's Saturday if the fic gets 2000 Power Stones.]
