Gate of View

Suddenly, both Kakashi and Guy backed away!

It was obvious that this was just the attack to gauge each other's power.

Guy did not even open Eight Gates, and Kakashi did not even use Sharingan or Color of Arms Haki.

"Gate of Pain, open!" Might Guy's aura suddenly erupted, directly skipping the first three gates and going straight for the Fourth Gate.

At this time, the amount of Chakra in Guy's body was constantly rising.

Even though Nagasawa seemed to give Kakashi special treatment, he never forgot about his other three apprentices.

For example, Nagasawa would give Guy a full body check-up every half a month to prevent Guy from training too much and straining his body.

At the same time, he asked Orochimaru to develop the mysterious nutritious meal to rejuvenate Guy's body. That way, he didn't need to worry about lacking nutrition, which led to slow progress.

Nagasawa gave whatever he could provide to his apprentices, and if he could not, he would think of a way to give them.

Midori Inuzuka and Ensui had the same treatment, but Guy's training was not applicable for everyone.

Midori Inuzuka could still learn a thing or two from him, but Ensui really couldn't.

Nagasawa also didn't have a way to quickly boost Ensui's strength. The essence of Nara Clan's secret technique was Yin Release, which was also related to spiritual energy.

As for spiritual energy, Nagasawa didn't know how to improve it other than with Sharingan. Ensui had no choice but to train and after going through all kind of adversities, it might increase little by little.

"He goes straight to the Fourth Gate? It seems Guy is already excited."

Seeing that Might Guy directly opened the Fourth Gate, Kakashi silently removed the forehead protector that blocked his three-tomoe Sharingan!

Then the three tomoe rotated rapidly, fusing into a triangle-shaped Mangekyō Sharingan!

Kakashi was afraid that three-tomoe Sharingan would not be enough to follow Guy's movements, so he activated the Mangekyō Sharingan.

Sou!

After opening the Fourth Gate, the Chakra on Guy's feet suddenly burst out, and a small hole was created when Guy rushed toward Kakashi.

"Konoha Shigan!"

As Guy rushed toward Kakashi, he covered his two palms with Color of Arms Haki.

"Wood Release: Wood Pillar Technique!" With Mangekyō Sharingan and Color of Observation Haki, Kakashi managed to read Guy's movements as he quickly made a hand seal and used Wood Release.

However, the Wood Release he used wasn't meant to stop Guy. He used it to to propel himself into the air.

Bang!

Rumble!!!

Might Guy's Color of Arms Haki-Shigan hit Kakashi's Wooden Pillar, blowing it to pieces. The wooden pillar that lost its support fell toward Might Guy.

"Armed Raikiri!"

Using the momentum of his fall, Kakashi used Raikiri and Color of Arms Haki to strike back.

In essence, Raikiri was no different from Chidori. It was just the advanced version of Chidori and both basically had the same hand seals.

Chidori had high penetration power due to its high-intensity lightning Chakra. However, Chidori's penetration power would be greatly reduced hadn't it been for the sprinting momentum.

Therefore, Kakashi had hardly used Chidori at close range. He only used it if there was a certain distance between him and the enemy.

Now, Kakashi had polished his Shape Transformation even more, solving this problem. Even if he used it on the spot, it could still dish out a strong penetration force and increase the range.

Therefore, Kakashi named it Raikiri as it was different from ordinary Chidori.

The reason why he wanted it to be different from ordinary Chidori instead of calling it Chidori like usual was because Kakashi felt that Chidori was more suitable for beginners and Raikiri was way too hard.

"Tekkai!" Seeing the figure that was falling with lightning speed, Might Guy immediately used the powerful Chakra provided by Eight Gates to cover his entire body with Color of Arms Haki, and at the same time, he used Tekkai as well.

Zi, zi, zi!!!

Bang, bang, bang!

Kakashi's arm, which was like a sharp blade made of lightning, fiercely struck Guy's chest.

Blood gushed out. Guy's Color of Arms Haki was pierced through by Raikiri. His chest was wounded, and the powerful force also forced Guy back a few steps.

"As expected of Kakashi. You actually broke my Tekkai. My youth is burning up!" Guy said excitedly as he used Life Return to heal his wound. 

This was the first time someone other than Nagasawa broke his "Absolute Defense" after he had trained his Color of Arms Haki to this level.

Might Guy had once asked Ensui to use his Color of Arms Haki to attack him in this state, but he was unable to break through his defense.

"I'll have to use this move on moderation in the battlefield." Kakashi murmured.

He was able to break through Might Guy's Color of Arms Haki, but that did not mean that his Color of Arms Haki was stronger than Might Guy's. Since Might Guy's Color of Arms Haki covered his entire body, Kakashi only needed to concentrate all of his strength on one point.

"Gate of Limit, open! Gate of View, open!"

Might Guy, who felt like he was on fire, opened another two Gates. This was his full strength. If he opened the Seventh Gate at this point, there would be very serious consequences.

If this were a battle to protect Konoha, or a battle to protect his companions, Might Guy would not hesitate to open the Seventh Gate directly. He'd even sacrifice himself and open the Eighth Gate if necessary.

However, there was no need to go that far if it were just a spar.

An extremely powerful Chakra burst out from Might Guy's body, and the powerful aura even crushed the tree next to him, and green Chakra began to spread around his body.

"Is this Sixth Gate...?" The strong wind that blew away everything around Guy made Kakashi's eyes widened. He was quite shocked by Guy's powerful aura.

"The Sixth Gate has this much power? As expected of a forbidden Technique."
