Chapter 4 : Who is Yasao?

"After unlocking the Eight Inner Gates, am I really this strong?"

Might Guy felt a surge of energy coursing through him, surpassing his current capabilities by leaps and bounds. It was a power he hadn't fathomed before.

But then, Kakashi spoke up.

[Kakashi: Guy, if you unlock the Eight Inner Gates in the future, doesn't that mean you'll die?]

[Might Guy: Haha, let me die! Even if I do, my youth will remain eternal, Kakashi! Don't cry for me if it happens!]

[Fourth Hokage: Maybe it won't actually happen. This scene we're witnessing now is from the future, and the appearance of the Golden List is likely an anomaly. With the help of the Golden List, Guy might become stronger without having to resort to the Eight Inner Gates Technique.]

[Third Hokage: The power of that mysterious man exceeds Kage-level, and neither ninjutsu nor senjutsu can harm him. Such a person is dangerously formidable, and we must find him before he becomes a threat.]

[Fourth Raikage: Yes, judging from what we just witnessed, the opponent's strength likely far surpasses ours. Even if Guy unlocked the Eight Inner Gates, it seems it didn't defeat the opponent. This individual is truly terrifying!]

[Senju Tobirama: It seems we've forgotten how terrifyingly powerful the top six techniques must be if the seventh is this formidable!]

[Third Tsuchikage: Hey, there are so many hidden powerhouses in the ninja world!]

[Third Hokage: Third Tsuchikage, are you back from the dead?]

[Third Tsuchikage: Sarutobi Hiruzen, I'm not dead yet. I'm recovering from my injuries, and I'm almost healed!]

Soon, the sixth-ranking physique was revealed!

[Sixth on the list of physical arts: Might Guy, user: Night Guy]

Might Guy once again claimed the sixth spot, leaving everyone in awe. He had secured multiple positions within the top ten list, reaping incredible benefits from his achievements.

Next, another image emerged, depicting Might Guy's battle with the mysterious man.

When the Eight Inner Gates proved ineffective, Might Guy resorted to his ultimate technique – Night Guy!

As Night Guy unleashed its power, the expressions of everyone changed dramatically.

Even Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama couldn't hide their shock. This technique distorted space itself, rendering space-based ninjutsu useless. They had no choice but to face it head-on.

Failure to withstand it would mean certain death!

The mysterious man was kicked by Might Guy, his body cracked, and his fate uncertain. After executing this move, Might Guy himself collapsed.

[Senju Hashirama: What an astonishing technique! This move could have killed me!]

[Kakashi: Guy, I'll never dare to challenge you in the future. I concede!]

[Rock Lee: Guy-sensei, you are now my idol and life goal. I'll dedicate myself to the pursuit of youth!]

[Third Hokage: Guy, I'm planning to establish a Taijutsu department, and I want you to lead it!]

[Third Raikage: Son, the power of the Eight Inner Gates is extraordinary. We must introduce it to the Cloud Shinobi Village.]

[Fourth Raikage: Father, don't worry. I'll make an announcement soon, encouraging everyone in the Cloud Shinobi Village to train in the Eight Inner Gates!]

[Third Tsuchikage: Humph, even Iwagakure should embrace the Eight Inner Gates!]

At that moment, many envisioned a future where people across the world trained in the Eight Inner Gates.

[Might Guy: The Eight Inner Gates are not easy to master. Those with poor physical abilities and perseverance won't even be able to open the first gate.]

However, no one paid heed to Might Guy's warning. After a few couldn't endure the training and gave up, they realized that his advice held true.

Moreover, those who didn't unlock at least the Sixth Gate would possess only moderate power, inferior to many quick ninjutsu techniques.

Uchiha Madara's face wore a worried expression.

"Could I be kicked to death by Might Guy in the future? If so, I must find a way to eliminate him before it happens," Uchiha Madara secretly pondered.

Before long, the fifth-ranked physique was unveiled.

Many were curious, wondering if this too would belong to Might Guy.

But Might Guy knew better; the fifth technique couldn't possibly be his own, as even with the Eight Inner Gates unlocked, his ultimate move remained Night Guy.

Furthermore, after using it, he would meet his end, rendering him incapable of further actions.

[Fifth on the list of physical arts: Vajra Body, user: Yasao]

When this physical technique was announced, it left everyone baffled.

What was the Vajra Body, and who was Yasao?

[Senju Hashirama: I have never heard of Vajra Body, but does anyone know about Yasao?]

[Tsunade: Grandpa, I haven't heard of them!]

[Senju Hashirama: Tsunade, you're here too!]

[Tsunade: I've been busy until now; I haven't had time to chat.]

[Terumi Mei: I have no information on the Vajra Body or Yasao in Kirigakure's records. These are completely unfamiliar names.]

[Third Hokage: Even in Konoha, we have no records of this technique or person.]

The leaders of the major Shinobi villages chimed in, all admitting their ignorance.

In the Pure Land, Uchiha Madara was also concerned. Things had taken an unexpected turn. He had no idea about Yasao's strength, but his physique seemed superior to Might Guy's. How formidable could this physique be, and could this man thwart his plans?

In the Rain Shinobi Village, Nagato and Konan were in discussion.

"Konan, have you ever heard of this person?" Nagato inquired.

Konan shook her head. "Nagato, I have no knowledge of them. Perhaps they're an existence like us."

Nagato's excitement grew. "Konan, find this person and invite him to join our Akatsuki organization. If he agrees, our plan will surely succeed."

Konan nodded. "Once his image is released, I'll investigate further."

Shortly after, an image appeared in the live stream. It depicted a vast sea, with a figure in a white robe donning a dragon mask walking effortlessly into its depths.

100 meters!

1 kilometer!

10,000 meters!

...

Under the sea's tremendous pressure, the individual emitted a golden aura, defying the crushing depths as if they were walking on solid ground.

Eventually, the screen faded, leaving everyone breathless.

Descending to a depth of ten thousand meters underwater as easily as walking on land—such a feat was unimaginable.

Who could achieve this?

[Third Raikage: What an incredible physique! I dare not venture so deep underwater; the pressure would crush my internal organs. This person has reached the ocean floor without any harm. Their physique is astonishing!]

[Uchiha Madara: I must acknowledge their extraordinary physical abilities. I hereby proclaim them as number one!]

[Senju Hashirama: I'd love to face this person in battle!]

[Senju Tobirama: Big brother, I don't want to disappoint you, but even though I can't predict everything, you might not be his match!]
