32 Chapter 32 : Stone Cold......Steve Austin (2/2)
Kenji, dressed in all black, his headband fluttering in the wind, waited in the trees. The sun was about to set. The villagers were on edge, but patiently waited like normal. A light traveled down the mountain. Soon enough, four men with cuts through their headbands stepped into the village to meet the five leaders in the middle of the street.
”AYYYYYEEEE YOU SSSHHHTEEPID VILLAGE. TIME TO GET PLUNDERED!” This guy was clearly drunk. Even better, maybe it was an off day, Kenji thought.
Other four looked at him with smiles like they were having a good time. Like nothing could ever beat them. ”Stay here dude. We'll get it this time.” One that wasn't impaired eyed Kaito. ”So, do you have the requirements this week?”
Kaito quietly said ”No, We do not.”
The disgraced ninja smiled. ”Ohhh welll then. Looks like we'll have to take another pretty girl from this place. They are really a waste to stay here anyway.” He looked around. ”Alright, spread out boys. Say something if you find a beauty.”
Three figures darted around to front doors everywhere.
Kenji didn't grab his sword. Instead, he went bare handed. He flashed into the back of the drunk ninja first. He cupped his hand over his mouth and nose with an arm gripping his neck. He cut off all air flow. The drunk couldn't do anything. When Kenji laid him down, before he drifted off, He could have sworn he just saw a white sharingan. The stories about this anomaly had already spread to them. He was scared out of his mind, but it was too late. He laid down, unconscious. Kenji stared at the leaders, who were frightened out of their mind, lost in his eyes.
”Get inside. I'll handle it.” Kenji jarred them back. They tiptoed inside while the four ninja where still searching. Kenji instructed the villagers to hide as best they could. To at least give him a little more time. He continued. Kenji silently followed into one of the victim homes. The ninja was looking through a closet. Kenji did the same procedure. He choked the breath out of him. He then motioned the man and his wife to come out. Kenji left the body right outside the door. There was no time to do that.
”HEY BOYS I FOUND ONE!!!” Before Kenji could get to another house, the ninja appeared from the dwelling gripping the wrist of a young girl. He could hear the screams of her parents. Begging to stop. Thoughts and memories sprang into Kenji's head. He slapped himself. He couldn't be doing this now.
Kenji took the man by surprise. He had to be quick. Kenji quickly weaved signs, prompting the uncontrollable lightning into his left palm. He chopped down with his right hand, cutting off the grip with the girls wrist and shoving the lightning palm into the face of the man. He screamed like death itself was killing him. Until he plopped straight to the ground. Kenji actually got nervous. He checked the man's pulse while the girl backed away on her bottom, trying to calm herself. He was still alive. Kenji breathed a relief, but through his byakugan, a flash of a chakra system instantly came from his eight o'clock. Kenji grasped a kunai and blocked an opposing one just in time. He flipped into the air, kicking the man's face in the process. The bandit lost his balance. Kenji released fire from his hand this time. Melted the skin off the man's face. The screams that filled the night were reduced to four unconscious bodies.
Kenji used the most nonlethal tactics he could. He could tell how undiverse his arsenal was. He'd have to fix that in the future.
A few men and her parents helped console the girl who was almost taken while some helped Kenji restrain the bodies in a cellar around Kaito's house. This was just the start.
Now, Kenji would show one skill in his growing collection that he knew too well.
Torture.

This was pretty long. I was sitting here thinking about how to write this chapter. Then, all of the sudden I thought, what if Stone Cold Steve Austin was a rouge ninja? lol. Random thought but It'll be cool. If you don't know who that is, just google it. Kenji will be learning some new moves later, which I alluded to. I have a plan for that which will make the new title of the novel make sense. So great things are coming! Stay tuned and thanks for reading. I'm out. YERRR!
