Z Training

The leader of Akatsuki currently stood at the base of the largest tree he could find. It was true, he was planning on changing the world, but in order to do so he needed to be stronger. Strong enough to be able to challenge anyone without the risk of dying himself. Yes, that was a far stretch, but it was one he would not stop working for until he achieved.

Removing his cloak, he revealed his stitched up torso, the result of his being experimented on with a forbidden technique. Then, requiring little focus, his back began to open up as thick black threads poured out. They were slithering out slowly, and once they were all stretched out they could be seen surrounding him, fifteen meters in all angels as he stood there, slouched over and looking like the beast he really was. It was hard to believe that all of those threads came from him. The man could already feel the chakra it took to control them as they swayed back and forth gently, awaiting his command. Getting on all fours, he sent them toward the large tree trunk in front of them, and they moved forth with tenacity as they struck its large structure, going across it one by one and leaving slashes across it.

Z continued his attack on the large slab of wood as the slashes got deeper and deeper, soon pouring out chunks of wood and tree sap as he continued, he refused to let up. The feel was exhilarating every time he used his threads. It wasn't exactly the same as ripping into someones flesh and stealing their organs, but it was enough for the time being.

The onslaught continued, and Z's chakra slowly drained as he wore the tree down to the last of its structure. It seemed as though the great trunk was too stubborn to give in, and so was he. He guessed it would have to be a battle of who gave in first. The strength and tenacity in which the threads were slashing at the tree was steadily growing as he continued, and the stitched up man couldn't help but remember when he had first gotten this ability how difficult is was to call on it. The pain it took to just call on two threads were too much for him to bare back then. But that was a long time ago. Since then he had gotten used to the pain. He even welcomed it now. The feeling of your own body opening up and parts of you reaching to grab other people and and objects was great. It was even intoxicating. And don't even get him started on on taking a heart and bringing it back inside of him. The feeling of one heartbeat made you alive. But the feeling of multiple, resonating on the same wavelength as you breathed and moved. That was bliss. With one last push, Z stuck the tree for the last time, and it snapped, making a loud thud as it hit the floor.
