Levi and Kenny were wild, unfettered and chaotically powerful until they found their 'king' to serve, and then become utterly loyal to that person. It was more natural for Mikasa/Eren since she was younger and more innocent but he definitely triggered and earned her power as a protector. When in the hands of Uri Kenny lost it in the face of one more powerful then he, but then aknowledged it and never even considered insurrection or abusing his power when talking to the MP..Levi was the same way until Erwin earned his trust.

Its definitely part of their Ackerman bloodline, curious to see a flashback maybe through the use of the coordinate memories of what happened 100 years ago and what the reiss line did to lose the faith of the Ackermans, it couldn't have been simply the lack of the memory wipe, it was most likely whatever horrific act the Reiss' did to NEED to wipe the memory of the people that the Ackermans couldn't abide

Very interesting observation, I haven't noted that the Ackermans seem to be always destined to be the loyal right hand men/ bodyguards of some leader; at least the "awakened" ones. Kenny said they were warriors close to the king but this was not only for their skills, it seems as some kind of fate they have.
