Chapter 131: Not Even Bringing Out the Blue Vapor
Chapter 131: Not Even Bringing Out the Blue Vapor
On Mount Katagiri, a raging inferno swept forward.
Kakashi's earthen wall only held for a moment before it was completely destroyed by the intense fire.
Aside from Hinata Hyuga and Neji Hyuga, who possessed the Absolute Defense technique, the other Konoha 12 members, who had not yet come into their full power, found it difficult to withstand such a powerful Fire Release technique.
Fortunately, Kakashi had used that moment of protection to quickly get the Konoha 12 to safety.
Seeing this, Huyi Xuanyue prepared to leave with Sasuke.
Might Guy, having received a subtle signal from Kakashi, did not retreat.
Not only that, without hesitation, he unleashed his full power and shouted:
"Eight Inner Gates, First Gate: Open!"
"Gate of Rest, Open!"
"Gate of Life, Open!"
"Gate of Hurt, Open!"
"Gate of Closing, Open!"
"Gate of Joy, Open!"
In an instant, a surge of violent chakra erupted, and a large amount of green vapor enveloped Guy, his body boiling with a crimson aura as he opened the six gates.
At this moment, even before he exerted any strength, the ground beneath his feet couldn't bear the pressure and cracked like a spider web.
The next moment, facing the surging sea of fire from the Grand Fire Annihilation Technique, Guy, with a significant boost in power, threw a straightforward punch.
Without infusing any ninjutsu, it was a pure and simple display of taijutsu.
However, this single punch, thrown at high speed, split the air and created a shockwave that instantly divided the rolling fire in two.
As expected, Guy swiftly moved, and amidst the loud friction of air, he darted through the sea of fire with incredible speed and delivered a heavy kick aimed squarely at Huyi Xuanyue's chest.
Huyi Xuanyue, with the power of his Mangekyo Sharingan, could see even the fastest movements. He first threw Sasuke far away and then, without time for any other action, horizontally extended his left hand.
Boom!
Guy's kick landed heavily on Huyi Xuanyue's palm.
Feeling the overwhelming power rushing toward him, Huyi Xuanyue didn't try to resist. Instead, he loosened his stance and used Guy's momentum to quickly step back.
Guy was about to pursue.
Huyi Xuanyue, still in the process of retreating, quickly performed a series of hand seals and declared:
"Fire Style: Phoenix Flower Jutsu!"
Dozens of fireballs, like seeds of the phoenix flower, shot out rapidly, sealing off any possible escape route and assaulting Guy from all directions.
Seeing the onslaught of phoenix flowers, Guy halted his pursuit, took a deep breath, clenched his fist, and with each rapid punch, he shouted:
"Morning Peacock!"
Tat tat tat tat!
With each of Guy's rapid punches, a trail of fire was produced due to the friction with the air, resembling a peacock proudly displaying its feathers. These flames dyed the sky red and dazzled brilliantly as they spread in all directions.
Easily dispelling the Phoenix Flower Jutsu, the flames generated by Guy's frenzied punches also enveloped Huyi Xuanyue.
Huyi Xuanyue's Mangekyo Sharingan in his right eye socket spun rapidly. As the Morning Peacock approached, he seemed to predict the future, moving with equally astonishing speed to dodge the incoming attacks.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The fist flames grazed Huyi Xuanyue, reducing the buildings of the Tsuchigumo clan behind him to rubble.
Realizing he couldn't take Huyi Xuanyue down for the moment, Guy charged forward and relentlessly threw punch after punch at close range, each one accompanied by a release of the Morning Peacock flames.
Zzzzt!
Lightning chakra suddenly coursed through Huyi Xuanyue's body.
His hands enveloped in sharp lightning chakra, aided by his Mangekyo Sharingan, Huyi Xuanyue engaged in an intense close-quarters battle with Guy. However, each of his movements was graceful and precise, always landing just outside his opponent's attack range, and he seized every opportunity to counter-attack.
But now, with the help of the Mangekyo Sharingan, he was deeply experiencing the wonders of technique and skill.
Through this continuous battle, Yuyi Xuan Yue gained a deeper understanding of the Mangekyo Sharingan.
Soon, taking advantage of a moment of stiffness in Guy's punch, Yuyi Xuan Yue, with his keen insight, seized the opportunity and pounced forward like a rabbit, reaching out to grab Guy's shoulder. Just as he was about to act, he saw Guy react swiftly, about to counter-attack.
Yuyi Xuan Yue didn't get greedy. Instead, he exerted force and threw Guy behind him.
Boom!
A building couldn't bear Guy's falling weight and collapsed swiftly.
Thick smoke and dust rose, but it still couldn't conceal that dazzling green figure.
"As expected of the Sharingan!"
With his skin turned crimson and his body enveloped in green steam, Guy stepped out of the ruins, his face solemn yet excited as he looked at Yuyi Xuan Yue and said, "Uchiha Naruto, you are truly strong!"
In Guy's judgment, Yuyi Xuan Yue, who also possessed the Sharingan, had much better insight and reaction speed than his close friend, Kakashi.
"Uchiha Naruto?"
Yuyi Xuan Yue paused for a moment, confused by this name.
What's this about?
Then it dawned on him.
Uchiha must be the surname Guy assumed for him at the moment.
As for Naruto, it must be referring to the white whirlpool-like mask he was wearing.
It's quite fitting, actually.
However...
"People with bad memory shouldn't go around giving others nicknames."
Yuyi Xuan Yue shook his head and looked at Might Guy, who was still enveloped in green steam and rushing towards him. With a calm and indifferent tone, he said,
"It's already at this stage, and you still haven't brought out the blue steam. I'm starting to feel underestimated."
Guy paused for a moment and nodded in agreement.
"What you say makes sense. In that case..."
"Kyomon: Open!"
Boom~~~
In an instant, Guy's aura surged, and the green steam that enveloped his body swiftly transformed into blue steam.
After completing this transformation,
Crack!
Guy bent down, ready for battle, and took just one step forward. The ground beneath his feet instantly cracked open, forming a dozen or so fissures two to three meters deep. The sand and stone particles that were splashed up did not fall back down due to inertia. Instead, under the influence of the blue steam, they floated in the air, suspended in mid-air.
Seeing Guy's strength, which had now become vastly different from before, Yuyi Xuan Yue swallowed the words he had been about to say.
He was afraid that if he said, "You haven't even brought out the red steam," Guy would immediately open the eighth gate without hesitation.
"This is troublesome."
Yuyi Xuan Yue quickly glanced at Sasuke, who was engaged in his own battle.
With Guy occupied by him, Kakashi, and Kurenai Yuhi, a Jonin who had remained hidden and hadn't made a move yet, along with Team 8 and Team 10, Sasuke's situation wouldn't last long.
"Then, let's finish this quickly."
Yuyi Xuan Yue took one last look at the pond nearby, which had been damaged during the previous battle and was now flowing with water. As Guy rushed towards him with the power of the seven gates, he already had a plan in mind.
Boom!
The battle commenced once more.
