Naruto: The Wind Calamity

Chapter 546: Creating a Kekkei Genkai?

Fujin continued analyzing, 'Before he met Raiga, Ranmaru was a crippled orphan who couldn't walk. While it is understandable for everyone to feel pity for him, the amount of help he got from the villagers increased significantly once he awakened the red dust ability. Until he exposed his abilities and scared everyone away, the village was obsessed with ensuring his well-being. The only difference is that they weren't as obsessed as Raiga, but that could be because none of them spent as much time with him as Raiga.

If it is a part of his Kekkei Genkai, then that would mean that he has some means of mentally influencing those who come in contact with him. I have a feeling that this is the feature of that red dust due to that incident, though I could be wrong. Regardless, I will have to be mindful of my feelings when interacting with him.

If it feels like I am getting influenced, then I'll be better off killing him on the spot. If I leave him in the Phantom Haven with this broken ability, I'll lose control of the organization very easily. It's not something I want to see.

Another thing that doesn't make any sense is this Kekkei Genkai itself. There is no record of such a Kekkei Genkai in Konoha's library. It could mean one of three things. The first possibility is that the previous users of this Kekkei Genkai died centuries ago and this Kekkei Genkai has been lying dormant since then.

The second is that all the users of this Kekkei Genkai hide it, sort of like the Jashin Priests who stay hidden from public view. And, the last possibility is that this Kekkei Genkai has been created by that kid! If he managed to create this Kekkei Genkai without any bloodline, then'

Fujin's breathing became slightly rougher as he realized the implications of it. Fujin had long wanted to create a Kekkei Genkai. Even though he had been busy and couldn't invest much time to actually try it, Fujin did think of it quite frequently and did some small experiments. Unfortunately, he never had any luck.

As a result, Fujin understood very well how difficult it was to create Kekkei Genkai when you didn't have the bloodline. And that was when Fujin tried to recreate an already existing Kekkei Genkai with elements that he had practiced for years. If he were to try creating a Kekkei Genkai that didn't exist in that world, the difficulty level might increase by several hundred times!

Fujin analyzed, 'If that is the case, then this kid is an unprecedented talent! In the current generation, only Naruto and Sasuke would be more talented. He might give me clues on how to actually create a Kekkei Genkai.

Looking at his past, he obviously couldn't create the Kekkei Genkai on purpose. If he did create it, then it was created subconsciously. And the Kekkei Genkai that was created perfectly suits his needs. And somehow, the Kekkei Genkai kept evolving to suit any more of his desires.

The first aspect of the Kekkei Genkai that manifested was the red dust. It actually manifested one day when he had been starving for several days and would have likely died if no one fed him. However, once the red dust manifested, everyone in the village slowly began caring for him.

Due to being born as a cripple, he couldn't go outside to see the outside world. He yearned to see the outside world. And, the second ability that he developed allows him to see through obstacles and for long distances like the Byakugan.

Finally, he discovered his ability to supply Life Force when Raiga was critically injured one day and he saved his life by transferring his Life Force and healing Raiga. This makes me wonder whether this Kekkei Genkai still has any scope to improve If so, then how far can it go?'

Fujin was tempted to see that. Unfortunately, he couldn't stay with Ranmaru for a long time to test it out. Taking him back to Konoha was out of the question as Hiruzen would take him. Keeping him in Phantom Haven was risky as well due to his ability. That more or less eliminated the two identities that Fujin could use.

As for his third identity, that was the identity that killed Raiga! There was no way in hell Ranmaru would follow Akuro. Fujin thought for some time before coming up with a plan. He muttered, "I guess that's the only choice."

Fujin flickered and appeared next to the unconscious Ranmaru. His last clone had been keeping an eye on Ranmaru the whole time. Several seals appeared on Fujin's palm which were quickly placed on Ranmaru. For the next half an hour, Fujin carefully placed seals on Ranmaru's body.

Once he was done, he checked the seals a couple of times before nodding. He extended two fingers and tapped on Ranmaru's forehead. In an instant, all the seals on his body began glowing and connected with each other, forming one large pattern. Soon after, every seal on his body disappeared. Just an empty circle was left on his forehead with three lines extending on both sides of the circle.

Fujin thought, 'Perfect. I'll call this seal the Kekkei Genkai Seal! A shame that this seal has to be tailored to an individual which requires a lot of time to observe them properly. Hence, I can't make the seal imprint. Otherwise, this would be a rather useful seal to deal with those pesky Mangekyou and Rinnegan users.

Regardless, from today onwards, he won't be able to use his Kekkei Genkai abilities unless I lift this seal. This should stop whatever it is that makes people obsessed with him. If it doesn't, then killing him would be the only option.

That said, even though he can't remove the seal, another Grandmaster can do so easily. I'll have to add my imprint on the seal to prevent others from doing so. However, that requires his permission'

A sparkle appeared on Fujin's finger and a small electric shock hit Ranmaru. It wasn't painful, it just forced him awake. As soon as his eyes opened, he saw the person who they were fighting against.

Ranmaru quickly looked around but couldn't see Raiga. Fearing the worst, he asked, "Where is Raiga?"

Fujin replied in a single word, "Dead."

Ranmaru's eyes widened for a moment before going back to normal. Fujin's clone had knocked Ranmaru out a few seconds before Fujin had killed Raiga. So Ranmaru didn't sense his death.

Ranmaru looked at Fujin and said, "I was born as a cripple. Until I met Raiga, my life had no meaning. When we met, I became his eyes and ears while he became my hands and feet. Together, we explored the world.

Raiga and I were finding the meaning of our lives by living for each other. We were convinced that we found the answer. That's why, if Raiga is gone, I have no reason to live. Without him, I have no purpose in this world. No cause to exist.

There is no need for me to be here any longer. You can kill me and set me free."

Ranmaru's choice of words surprised Fujin. He thought, 'Interesting. Even though he is accepting his fate, his choice of words will inevitably invoke a sense of sympathy within most people. Combined with that red dust ability, no wonder Raiga spared him. I wonder how it would have impacted me had I not sealed his abilities.'

Seeing that Fujin wasn't doing anything, Ranmaru said, "Go on, why do you hesitate?"

Fujin chuckled and replied in his heavy voice, "Hehe, you are an interesting kid. I never expected that a child would accept his death so calmly. Perhaps if Raiga was as calm as you, he might have still been alive."

Fujin extended his fingers towards Ranmaru's forehead and said, "Since you are so calm, I'll grant you a painless death."

Ranmaru closed his eyes as Fujin's fingers touched his forehead. However, he didn't feel anything else. It was as if it was an ordinary tap. Fujin just took the opportunity of Ranmaru's willingness to accept death to apply his imprint on the Kekkei Genkai Seal, ensuring that no one could remove his seal any longer!

He chuckled internally while thinking, 'Well look at that. He is actually willing to die. There was no resistance at all. No wonder his words feel so genuine. Tsk, to do so without a scheming mind. He will have a talent comparable to Naruto in talk-no-jutsu. I wonder how strong he will become with proper guidance.'

Ranmaru opened his eyes and asked, "Why did you stop?"
