As Hades was clearing the stocks in his shop one morning, he found a scroll. As he looked at the scroll, the parchment, the feel, the touch, the color, seems to be of an old scroll. As he opened the scroll, it was an old letter, written by a man. It seems to be talking about how Genjutsu is the strongest thing ever, if only it was mixed with kenjutsu, or ninjutsu, it would've been a force unstoppable. This stirred and inspired Hades to create a new style of fighting, a style called Kenkakku.

Hades walked out of the store and went to the training ground nearby with his worker. He then picked up a training katana and told the worker to start throwing stones at him when he gives the signal. What was Hades trying to do? He was trying to test out a theory. If he spins a blade above him, and if the tip of the sword is imbued with chakra, would it give him a boost to dodge moves, because he is using the blade's momentum, and also focusing more on evading an attack. As he lifts the blade above him, he allowed his chakra to flow through the blade. Doing it half-heartedly, he starts spinning the sword above him. As he started spinning the blade, he was flinged off the ground, and crashing to a tree.

As he gained his balance after the crash, he decide to focus his chakra only at the tip of the blade, and not on the whole katana. As he do it, he started spinning the katana. He seem to catch the blade's momentum, and began to be able to move swiftly. He then gave his worker the command to throw the stones at him. As the servant starts tossing the stones rapidly, he begins focusing on dodging the stones. Although some stones do hit him, he did manage to dodge most of them, even some that he never expect to dodge. Satisfied with the result, he then went on to the next jutsu.

As he finished polishing up the first jutsu, counter stance, he went on to test his next genjutsu. He then asked his worker to be his test subject for this Genjutsu. He commanded his worker to keep an eye contact with him, always. As he look into his target's eye, he began to create a bond, a common bond to initiate a genjutsu. As he managed to clear the first step, he then started to mix his target's senses. He then stood still, and made a complete new replica of himself, to the target's sense. He then started to move away. He moves away, a bit left, and moved back. He then looked at his target's eyes, and noticed the target was looking at where he was, and where he appears to be to the target. He did also make the target's sensory skill to focus on his fake illusion. He then tried to control his clone, making it move to the right, away from him. His target then turned to where his illusion moved to. Perfect, everything's going well! , thought Hades. He then tried to see if he could perform a sneak attack on the target. As he charged towards his target, as he reached 20 ft within the target's radius, in a second, the target appeared to be surprised, and looked around for Hades, finally spotting Hades coming towards him. Noticing this, Hades then stopped and realized the moment he came towards the target, his genjutsu was removed. Hades then repeated this over and over again, not being able to perform a sneak attack. He came to a conclusion that performing a sneak attack with this genjutsu would not work.

After those two jutsu, Hades felt very tired and hungry. He then went and ate his bento. Finishing the bento, he stood up and stretched before continuing this jutsu. Once again, he asked his good old worker to help him. He's going to cast his worker into a genjutsu that would cause his target's senses to lag. He asked his worker to catch a ball he will pass to him. After all the planning is done, he then made eye-contact with his target. As their eyes are locked, he then casted the genjutsu on his target. He then began to modify the target's senses. He then made the target see an illusion of him, Hades, like he did in the jutsu before. He then made himself and the whole world invisible, making the target see and sense a total illusion. Hades then began looking around, making sure the surroundings are also slowed. As he looked and tried messing with the target's senses, he realized with his brain's capacity, he could only slow it by 2 seconds. Meaning if he lifts his hand, he can make his illusion lift its hand 2 seconds later. Anything more than that is too difficult, since he has to remember how it looked like 2 seconds ago to recreate the setting. This takes lots of focus, concentration and good observing skills. Next, he made himself walk, appearing 2 seconds later.


He then spoke(also lagging by 2 seconds) to his target, saying he would pass the ball soon. Hades then tossed the ball, while the target looks at the imaginary slowed ball. As the real ball hits him, he did not realize it, only after 2 seconds, when he noticed it was an illusion. He realized it when Hades, the second the ball hit the target, released the Genjutsu. The genjutsu was just giving him too much strain and stress. He then took a rest, trying to clear and allow his brain to take a rest. After a while, he told his target he would then try to attack the target after the genjutsu is casted. They then took their places, and Hades casted the Genjutsu on the target, and tested it. This time, he ran towards his target. He realized doing this is super hard, since he had to take into account his muscle's movements, his body features, and his environment. He doesn't have all the time he needs. He has only a short time to do all these work. He did manage to run for a few seconds, but then the genjutsu was mixed up, since he couldn't make the movement perfect. He then tried again, this time focusing more on the details. He made sure the clone's movement illusion is perfect, as if it was real. As he reached his target, he gave the target a hit on the head and back stepped. He then could see his illusion going to the target, the target trying to block the attack while the clone's attack passes through the target, and the target finally feeling pain. Hades the cancelled the genjutsu due to the tiredness and strain. He then rested again before doing a few more practices to polish up everything, so it can be as realistic as possible.
