History
A leads Kumogakure's effort to capture Lin Qing, referred to at a strategy meeting as “Second Pillar.” He later sits at the front of the village's battle formation, where Killer B questions whether they are truly going to attack 99 112.
In the ensuing war, A identifies a brief opening after Lin Qing uses Time Stop and strains his Stands. His Lightning Flicker Technique lets him exploit that opening, but his close-combat style is outmatched by Lin Qing's. Lin Qing breaks A's limbs and takes his memories and Ninjutsu Disc, bringing the conflict to an end 114 115. Killer B becomes acting Raikage while Kumogakure negotiates cooperation with Lin Qing 116.
A remains unconscious in a hospital for three years after losing the discs. His powerful physique and medical ninjutsu keep him alive; by the time he returns to battle, his severed limb has been reattached and his physical power has declined little 323 325. He joins the response to Ōtsutsuki Toneri, attacking him with Lightning Release chakra coating his body 324 325.
