Naruto : Hidden Cloud

Genetic powers



Every tailed beast is a special existence; each tailed beast has its own set of unique powers which are inherent to themselves.

Shukaku is a monster made of sand with a natural mastery of sealing jutsu; Kurama is the only tailed beast with a built in chakra mode; only Chomie, the seven tails, can fly freely in the sky; and as for Matatabi the two tails?

The two-tailed beast is the only one with a mastery of flames like no other. Matatabi has two types of chakra fire burning within her body.

"What is this?! Why are these black flames burning the girm reaper??"

"Sato Nii what did you do??!"

The two types of flames within Matatabi were the blue falmes, signifying the hottest natural fire. And the black flames, signifying the hottest chakra fire.

These black flames were also known by another name in the Uchiha clan.

The flames of amaterasu.

"Tobirama is that Amaterasu? How is Raikage using amaterasu, does he have the Mangekyo Sharingan?"

Hashirama's rage had faded away and he asked with a surprised look on his face. His sharp eyes couldn't see the grim reaper, but he could still see the black fire burning around Sato's body.

These black flames reminded him too much of Amaterasu, the Uchiha clan's Mangekyo technique.

But Tobirama didn't jump to conclusions; his nature as a chakra scientist saw something different about those black flames.

"No, big brother. This is a bit more complicated than that."

"Amaterasu is nothing but the peak of fire release; theoretically speaking, anyone can use it, as long as they master fire release perfectly. But practically, it's not possible."

"That level of mastery isn't humanly possible. This is why those black flames are a Mangekyo power, despite being so simple in nature."

Tobirama the forbidden jutsu master, was analyzing the black and blue fire that had suddenly started burning on Sato's body.

This fire was not only burning the air around them; it was also burning the chakra and the grim reaper itself.

"Raikage's black flames... it's indeed the highest form of fire release, but if I am right, they are not created using a Mangekyo Sharingan."

"These are the natural black flames of the two tails. You can call them the flames of amaterasu; it's the same thing, but it's coming from a different source."

"Raikage Sato has somehow mastered the black and blue falmes inherent to the two tails. He is the first person in history to do this."

Tobirama felt complicated. Years ago, he had theorized that the nine-tailed beast has a chakra mode, and that different-tailed beasts must have different special abilities.

Who would have thought the first person to master their tailed beast's special ability was not a jinchuriki like he had thought, but a human with a tailed beast's DNA inside them.

"Amaterasu again? This is how you killed Danzo all those years ago, and now this is how you want to kill me.."

"Is this a joke of fate or something else? Fifth Raikage, can you tell me something, did you plan all of this?"

The third Hokage felt pitiful at this moment; he had already used a suicide jutsu, but these black falmes suddenly appeared and started protecting Sato.

The girm reaper was a soul creature made of yin chakra. Amaterasu can burn chakra, and thus it was burning the girm reaper. 

His sacrificial jutsu failed directly.

Hiruzen knew he didn't have the chakra left to kill Sato anymore. It was only a matter of minutes before he died.

So he wanted to know if this whole thing was planned by Sato. If Sato knew that he would behave like this from the beginning.

"Hahaha.. Are you kidding me? Of course I felt something was off with you."

"I just didn't think you would use the death reaper seal so shamelessly. These black flames are a surprise to me as well, believe it or not."

"When the girm reaper touched my soul, I resisted violently. My body spontaneously decided to use it's tailed beast DNA in order to survive."

"It's like an adrenaline rush, unlocking 100% of the body's strength. My body figured out how to use the two tails's powers hiding in my DNA."

Sato grinned cheerfully; this was such an unexpected surprise. His DNA suddenly awakened during high stress. It was pretty much like a kekkei genkai awakening.

'I have awakened a ridiculously strong power. With some creativity I might soon be better than Matatabi at using fire.'

Humans were naturally better at using tailed-beast abilities when compared to tailed beasts themselves. This is why perfect jinchuriki were so strong.

Gaara's sand abilities are better than Shukaku's; Yagura's water style is much more advanced than three tails Isobu; and Roshi's lava release chakra mode is something even his tailed beast can't do.

Humans are just better at using chakra creatively.

And now that Sato has the ability to create and control the flames of amaterasu without limit, his strength has shot up to the sky.

'I can kill anyone below the level of super kage. Even a super kage like Hashirama and Madara have to be careful against amaterasu tsunamis.'

Sato wanted to laugh a little; if the grim reaper wasn't pulling his soul constantly, he would start dancing too.

It wasn't easy becoming this strong; he had begun from the very bottom and climed all the way to semi-super kage.

This was phenomenal.

"Third Hokage, although I am happy, you still need to die."

"I can burn the girm reaper completely, but that will save you from death. So what I will do is burn the grim reaper's hand, which is grabbing my soul."

"This way, the grim reaper will only take your soul. You can no longer reach pure land and will be trapped within the reaper's belly forever."

"I will even throw in some amaterasu flames on your soul, just so you can feel the burn for eternity. Sounds good?"

Sato turned around and gently smiled at Hiruzen, although Hiruzen's forehead was sweating from stress.

He wanted to beg Sato for mercy, but Sato's blue and black fire became much more intense.

"Aaaaaaaa!"

The girm reaper screamed a silent scream as his right hand burned away, and his hold on Sato's soul disappeared directly.

"Nooo aagaaagh!!"

Hiruzen screamed in pain as the flames of amaterasu burned his soul, and the angry grim reaper ripped this burning soul out of his body.

Thump

The lifeless body of the third Hokage collapsed onto the ground, pain still visible on his face. The And the black flames, signifying the hottest chakra fire had also vanished with his death.

"Huff huff, serves him right the bastard."

Sato sat on the ground and panted loudly. He was tired, but his eyes were sharp.

He had killed the third Hokage in cold blood. But he wasn't sure if the people were going to take this well.

If possible, he would rather not fight anymore. He has had enough for today.
