In his attempt to help, Pung had already had the situation under control. He watched as she effortlessly used clones to simultaneously save the akimichi and the sail from flailing around too wildly. Seeing as he didn't have to jump into action, Akui leapt off the mast landing next to Pung and Yuutheo.

"I didn't to poooo-" before he could finish his sentence, he was delivered a hefty blow to his stomach after being pulled to her level. He instantly fell to his knees after having the air and spit knocked out of him. As she scolded him, Akui was within his inner mind having a battle between taking rash actions and submitting to his discipline. "Get up...you can take...all you need is to perform that one jutsu...." The darker side of Akui's true self wanted to give in to his carnal desires but the voice of reason suggested otherwise. "Don't be a fool, she is clearly stronger and right now, things aren't looking good for you. Even if you did something, the other one, Shien, will likely put you down before you could even try to finish her off." Akui shook his head causing the shirt he wore on his head to fall off and his long white hair covered his face. It might have seem like it was some defiance but truly Akui was simply trying to block out the voices in his head. His nails scratched the wooden surface but as his spoke, his voice displayed surrendering to his discipline. " I apologize for what I have done. I was only trying to help him get over his fear and I failed." Akui would press his head to his the wooden surface. "Please accept my apology and I will take whatever punishment you bestow." Akui would then get to put up one knee but his head continued to hang low as his hair covered his face. He would turn to face Yuutheo then get into the same position with his head to the wood and speak again. " I am sorry, I tried to help you the same way I have been taught, which is sink or swim. I now know that that logic does not apply to everyone and I hope someday you can forgive me."

Though none could see his face, Akui was bleeding from his lip as he hit hard to control the actions he wanted to do. Akui would then get up and walk away heading below deck leaving a few droplets of blood where he was kneeling. As he heard Shien's promise to make him work in the worst location, Akui gritted his teeth then punched a hole into the wall of the boat before continuing down the steps.

Kelton

During the entire experience, Kelton had been watching from the the plank even though Akui didn't notice. He had with him a list of things that the people of the Kanabun gang, later changed to Akui's gang, had wanted addressed Akui and later Keldran. Being the leader of this group also made him thier ambasssador in which this was a hard task that Akui was clearly dealing with. As time flew by in those three years that Kelton aided Akui as his assistant and closest friend, Kelton's blonde hair now showed a bit of gray here and there. He even grew out a beard which also had some gray in it. The 6'2 man was known among everyone as the Last Samurai from the Land of Iron but he preferred to be known as the maker of silk clothing and moonshine. Still people liked to call him the last Samurai and Kelton frankly didn't feel the need to correct people every time.

"Ahem...mind if I go speak with him?" Having seen the heated display, Kelton chose to tread carefully among these shinobi as he didn't want things to escalate even further.
