Chapter 730: Poking the Beehive!
For a few moments, Baki felt a sense of helplessness. He didn't see any way to counter such a strong jutsu. In fact, he wasn't even sure whether Rasa could stop this technique. The fact that the enemy village had a sixteen-year-old ninja who could go up against their Kage and possibly overpower him was extremely difficult for Baki to digest.
Yet, Baki quickly controlled himself. As the Sunagakure ninja with the highest authority on the battlefield, he wasn't allowed to lose control of his emotions like the rest.
He quickly analyzed, 'No! A jutsu this strong has to have weaknesses. And, the weakness of this jutsu is rather obvious. Sustaining it will take a massive toll on his chakra reserves. While we can't confront him head-on, we can keep attacking him until he runs out of chakra and then take his head!
However, it'll be a very painful victory. It'll be best if they are able to kill him right here…'
Baki's analysis wasn't off the mark. The Wind Domain had a ridiculous requirement for chakra. A normal ninja wouldn't be able to sustain it. After creating the Wind Domain, Fujin used it to annihilate a division of Suna ninjas and a division of Oto ninjas. In addition, he lost a big chunk of chakra to Kurogaki's Dark Release.
Along with his liberal use of the Assassin's Rush jutsu and blocking the reanimated ninjas, his Wind Domain was almost out of chakra. It became quite evident when Shirogane's bones ripped through Fujin's Ghost Palm.
Baki observed it with a keen look and thought, 'As I suspected. The technique's power had decreased significantly. Even though he is still ridiculously strong, he won't be invincible once this technique ends!'
The reanimated ninjas and others around, especially the sensors, also noticed the same thing. Sakumo sighed internally while thinking, 'I guess expecting a jutsu of this scale to be sustained for too long is too much…'
However, unlike the expressions of the Konoha ninjas, there wasn't even a hint of worry on Fujin's face. The Wind Domain began moving once again and strong winds were blasted in the direction of all six ninjas once again.
