Konoha: The Legend of Kiba,
Chapter 1 Eight-Gate mode, open!
Konoha Village, Ninja Academy,
Ring...
As the bell rang, signifying the
end of the day for the academy, groups of students poured out of the campus,
like a group of chicks out of the cage, laughing, skipping, and discussing
where to play, where to eat, or, in some cases, whom to beat or something.
Kiba was also one of them, but
compared to the others, he was quite special. Because no one came within one
meter of him, and no one talked to him. Through the rows of people, Kiba walked
to the downtown area, which was the only route for reaching home.
When the passersby on the road saw
Kiba, they all frowned, expressing their disgust. Some parents even rushed over
and pulled their children away from him, while scolding their children not to
approach him again. As Kiba walked around, he heard them whispering slowly
amongst each other along the way. "Tsk! Why is he still in our village?
Why did they keep him?" "That child must be the son of the Traitor...
With such a gloomy face, no wonder it makes people think that he is not a good
person." "He is an eyesore; let's go!"
Listening to the whispers around
him, Kiba didn't show any expression on the outside except for a slight frown
on his face, but inside countless thoughts were running through his mind. It
has been seven years since he somehow transmigrated here in the Naruto world.
Right now, he was in a timeline when the third Shinobi war should start in a
few years, and right now Kakashi Hatake is already 8 years old. According to
the original book, Kakashi was promoted to Jōnin at the age of 12. At that
time, Kakashi had participated in the third Shinobi War, and the war was almost
at its end when the battle of Kannabi Bridge took place. Although he did not
know exactly when, it was about to break out. He knew one thing: if he did not
have the ability to protect himself, he would probably die in this war,
No!
Death in this war was almost a
certainty. Unlike the Shinobi Alliance, during the Fourth War against two
Uchiha obito and Uchiha madara with their sages of six paths level, the Loss of
life in the Third War should be far less than the Fourth War, since approximately
40000 out of 80000 Shinobi died in the Fourth War.
Kiba, who has experienced death
once, does not want to experience it again! Moreover, who knows whether dying
this time will again allow him to transmigrate somewhere or not, or it will be
over after this life? No, he cannot take chances with his life; time is growing
shorter and shorter; I must prepare myself.
Kiba frowned, thinking about his
problems. He walked through the downtown area unknowingly, stepping into a
quiet forest and continuing along the path. In the forest, at the outermost
edge of the village, a hut stands alone here. This is his residence. When he
transmigrated to this world, he was born into an ordinary family. His mother
died of dystocia. As for his father, he had died before Kiba was even born. As
far as Kiba knew, his father was a traitor of Konoha Village. He had helped a
ninja from Iwagakure to steal the defense map of Konoha Village, but the Third
Hokage caught them at their rendezvous point during the exchange. Realizing
that they have been found out, the Iwa ninja acted quickly and killed Kiba's
father on the spot to prevent any leakage of information that could place
Iwagakure in an unfavorable position. While the Third Hokage himself killed the
Iwa shinobi, thus securing the defense map safely. Although the defense map was
safe, his father was resented and despised by everyone in Konoha Village and
was called a "Traitor."
In the end, Kiba suffered an
innocent disaster because he was his son and was thus despised and disgusted in
the village. Putting down his schoolbag, Kiba walked to the shaded place at the
back of the house, where there were three wooden stakes, two of which had been
damaged beyond repair signifying harsh training and the new one had just been
erected few days ago.
Kiba walked forward silently and
began to practice sidekicks and frontal punches. As a transmigrate, Kiba found
his treatment is far from that of the protagonists, he watched in those films
in the previous life. He did not possess the three major doujutsus, nor did he
have any kekkai genkai. His chakra reserves were also at the civilian level far
from that of the clan children of his age; His speed and quantity of chakra
refining was also slow and pitiful. According to his estimates even if he keeps
practicing very hard, he can only reach Chunin level in the future.
The only thing that was worth
noticing was his extraordinary level of control over Chakra, his chakra control
is so precise that he can even stand on a tree for a day and a night without
falling off even with that pitiful amount of Chakra he has in his body.
Almost all the chakra in the body
can be used without wasting a single bit. However, this is of no use. Chakra is
the foundation in this world, and it was with the Yin and Yang aspect of chakra
that the Sage of the Six Paths transformed the world, distributing chakra in
all the living beings. The power of all ninjutsu, genjutsu, is closely related
to Chakra. The greater the amount of chakra, the more powerful the
ninjutsu/genjutsu will be.
The faster the chakra is
condensed, the greater the combat power of shinobi. For example, the great
fireball technique, when used by an ordinary shinobi, may cover a few meters of
area, while the same technique, if used by Uchiha Madara, will cover a very
large area, promptly burning away many shinobis with it. The reason is
naturally the huge difference in the amount of chakra and mastery of fire
release chakra. To be strong, one must have a huge amount of chakra.
After all, Naruto, the protagonist
of this world, also relied on the huge Nine-Tails Chakra to pass through all
the hurdles. Even the second male protagonist, Sasuke, although not as good as
Naruto, had a huge amount of chakra compared to others.
Kiba's poor chakra volume almost
sealed his tragic fate in this World. For this same reason, he was angry and
frustrated, lamenting over his bad luck, and he almost gave up on himself, but
fortunately, he discovered something that, got his bearing together, reigniting
his determination to gain strength.
Maybe it was the god of
transmigrates who ally took pity on him for once. He mused;
He had actually discovered a
basement in his small wooden house. There was a small stone worn out platform
in the basement, and on that stone platform there was a scroll.
He had hastily grabbed and Opening
it at that time, he realized that it was the scroll of Konoha Forbidden Art,
The kinjutsu: The Eight Inner Gates Formation!
He can still recall the excitement
he felt on discovering this scroll. As the most powerful Taijutsu technique,
the Eight Inner Gates Formation. When fully opened, all gates give the user
power dozens of times that of all five kage-level shinobi combined. With this
power, even Might Guy, who had a very low amount of chakra, could go toe to toe
with six paths, Madara uchiha. Mastering the Eight Inner Gates Formation should
be enough to protect oneself.
However, there is a great risk. It is fatal to
open all gates. Also, if the body is not strong enough to tolerate the surge of
energy and wear and tear that comes with the opening of gates, it may lead to
permanent disability.
As far as he could recall from his previous
life, during the Chunin exams, Rock Lee had opened five gates in his fight
against Gaara, but ultimately his body was not powerful enough at that time,
and if it were not for Tsunade's medical skills being legendary, Lee would have
probably become a useless person. Then there was Guy who had opened the gate of
death during his fight with six paths madara.
It was only due to the timely
arrival of Naruto to perform Yin-Yang release ninjutsu on Guy's heart that he
survived; otherwise, he would have died without a shot of a doubt, and even
though Guy survived, he was disabled for the rest of his life, spending the
rest of his life on a wheelchair.
Kiba does not want this kind of short-lived
power. If he becomes a useless person in this world, it would be better to
kill, himself. There is no doubt that Kiba is afraid of death, but what he is
even more afraid of is being weak and powerless. He had had enough of this
feeling in his previous life. In this life, he must become a strong man.
Therefore, he had an idea—a crazy idea! Control the power of the Eight Inner
Gates Formation! Control the violent chakra after opening the gates, and let
the short-lived eight gates become the eight-gates chakra mode! The amount of
chakra after opening the gates is huge enough! To control the power of the
Eight Gates It is unprecedented. If one says it, it will make people laugh
aloud and call you an idiot.
However, for Kiba, it is not just
a dream. His control over Chakra is amazing; it may not be completely
impossible for him!
"Boom!"
Kiba smashed his leg on the newly
erected wooden pile, scattering sawdust as it shook. He had discovered the
scroll of the Eight Inner Gates Formation three years ago and has been
practicing with hard discipline for three years now.
Except for eating, sleeping, and going to
class, all he did was practice the Eight Inner Gates Formation. In these past
three years, he has been constantly exercising and tempering his body.
Kiba has been following Guy and Lee's
torturous training regime he once saw in his previous life from the show,
exhausting all his physical strength every day. However, this constant training
and torturing himself had paid off;
Kiba mastered the first three gates of the
Eight Inner Gates Formation for a year now. "Five hundred punches, five
hundred sidekicks." He inhaled deeply and let out a long breath, feeling
very tired, he released the weight on his hands and feet and gently placed it
on the ground. Even though Kiba put it down lightly, the weight still made a
muffled sound that of a heavy object falling to the ground. He had started
weight training two years ago.
Every month, Kiba would increase
the weight until he could barely withstand it, then perform all the exercises
wearing these weight until his body adapted it, and then he would increase it
once again and repeat it over again.
After taking a few breaths, Kiba inhaled
slightly and clenched his fists. The first gate, The Gate of Opening (Kaimon):
open! The second gate, the gate of healing (Kyumon): open! It was as if two
switches were turned on in his mind; a steady stream of physical strength
poured out, and the exhaustion just now was swept away. Then, the third gate,
the Gate of Life (Seimon): open! Kiba felt that an acupuncture point on his
chest was suddenly opened like a closed throttle valve. The chakra that was
flowing continuously in his body like a trickle suddenly surged, and a large
amount of chakra rushed in like a torrent. It quickly flows through all the
chakra pathway and, at the same time, continuously radiates out of the body.
Kiba's body also began to slowly congest and turn red, wisps of green chakra
slowly overflowing from the body surface.
The whole body is full of soaring power! At
the same time, the pebbles on the ground jumped up, being pulled by the chakra
that escaped from Kiba. Then, Kiba closed his eyes, formed a hand seal with his
hands, and formed a seal that condensed Chakra.
Today, I must succeed! He focused
all his body and mind into restraining the uncontrolled chakra in his body. A
year ago, he was able to open three gates, but until today, he failed to
restrain the chakra in his body for even once in this past year, thus unable to
turn it into a usable chakra.
It just strengthened his body and vented out
from the pores of his body, thus making it impractical to be used to perform
ninjutsu. Only by controlling it can one use it to perform Ninjutsu.
Kiba stood, almost holding his
breath; his hands began to tremble slowly over time. However, the green chakra
that emanated from his body surface and disappeared into the air, slowly but
gradually gathered up, covering his body surface and no longer escaping. Kiba's
mouth curled into a smile. The violent chakra in the body seemed to have
started to slow down; gradually it stopped venting outside and was slowly
started gathering in his mid-section and chakra pathway.
Musing internally, "Do not relax!
This is the time when something always went wrong before! You must be
careful!" Kiba reminded himself.
At the same time, the Violent Chakra had been
completely contained in his chakra pathway and no longer spreading out, but it
was starting to flow at a high speed in the Chakra pathway, like a wild horse.
Almost there! Beads of sweat were
dripping from Kiba's forehead, and he was mentally exhausted. Chakra is the
product of the perfect mixture of physical energy and spiritual energy.
Strictly speaking, since this chakra came from the Gates, this chakra was
physical energy dominant with very less amount spiritual energy mixed in it.
This was also a reason why this chakra was wild and violent and very hard to
control, to control this chakra, Kiba has to invest a considerable amount of
spiritual energy. And how much spiritual energy can be mixed with it depends on
his mental energy! In fact, this is a battle of wills!
Having failed thousands of times, Kiba knew
that every time he failed, it was because he could not hold on. "But this time,
I am not going to give up; I am never going to give up! I don't want to be weak
anymore!" said Kiba. Internally.
Flash back
Scenes of being bullied in the
previous life poured into his heart, and the remorse and unwillingness
completely ignited the anger in Kiba's heart! How could I be so powerless? With
a new vigor, he exerted himself more, and, soon under Kiba's calm control, the
spiritual energy got mixed into the chakra of Seimon Gate.
boom!
A silent roar
resounded in Kiba's body. The congested and reddened complexion disappeared
instantly, and the green chakra accumulated on the body surface disappeared.
Kiba suddenly opened his eyes, ecstatic in his
heart. At this moment, the Gate of Life was still open, and inside his chakra
pathway, the blue is surging like a river. This was his chakra! Instead of
Seimon's green chakra! He had succeeded. This amount of chakra is enough to be
at the pseudo chunnin chakra level!
This is not the Eight Inner Gates Formation;
this is the Eight Inner Gates Chakra Mode! Excited from success, Kiba punched
the wooden post.
"clicked."
It broke!!
It seems my attacks are further strengthened.
Although it is not as much strengthened as The Gate of Pain (Shomon), The
Increment is still significant. Mused Kiba.
"Who?"
Just as Kiba was celebrating
internally, a girl suddenly dashed in the dense forest next to the house. It
was just a brief glance; he couldn't see it clearly, but what was certain was
that there was someone who was spying on him!
Almost subconsciously, Kiba ran into the dense
forest.
