[Hand of the Puppeteer]
Kazi had anticipated that Roa would have one or two counter measures to deal with a sutori like him, so he didn't waste any thought before the fastest technique in his arsenal. With Kazi's level of perception, when he used blink, the world around him would appear to have slowed down a bit, something like bullet time but more. Inside that time, he could still move almost normally, and against someone like Roa, that was overkill, but it never pays to not be careful.
With Roa under control, Kazi handed him the philosopher's stone. Whether he rebelled or not, Kazi had already planned to do this, after all, he couldn't trust someone with something as precious as the philosopher's stone just like that.
