<><><><><><>

Asahi was truly having a headache at this moment. Help, he could help, but the costs were a bit overwhelming.

If he were to save Might Duy, the consumption would be quite substantial.

Although Might Duy was officially just a Genin, his chakra reserves were far from meager.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to activate the Eight Inner Gates Formation.

In reality, the consumption wasn't the main concern. The crucial point was, what if he intervened and was discovered by that old man, Hagoromo Otsutsuki?

That old man's soul had been alive for so many years, and claiming he was only protecting the ninja world felt a bit unreliable.

When he first arrived in the world of Naruto, due to ignorance, he directly used the Sage of Six Paths experience card.

Fortunately, perhaps because his strength surpassed Hagoromo Otsutsuki, he wasn't discovered.

But thinking back on it later, he couldn't help but feel a lingering fear.

Now, using the Forbidden Spirit to manipulate reality directly, forcibly retaining a soul summoned to the Pure Land—was that okay?

...

"Master, please... help Senior Duy" pleaded Kurenai, grabbing Asahi's arm, her voice choked with emotion.

Seeing Asahi's lack of response, Might Guy on the ground became even more fierce, continuously knocking his head.

"Alright, alright, I agree. I'll save Might Duy!"

Asahi was exasperated by this group of people. The main issue was that his disciples were just not considerate of their master, trying various ways to get him to help.

Fortunately, Might Duy hasn't died yet, so there shouldn't be a big issue. After all, the ninja world has plenty of resurrection techniques, and we haven't seen Hagoromo Otsutsuki popping up.

Asahi consoled himself in this way deep within his heart.

"Ah, Guy, right? Get up. Leave your father to me."

Asahi helplessly comforted Guy, looking at the faint blood oozing from his forehead, internally marveling at his resilience.

Guy who kneeling on the ground, upon hearing Asahi's words, didn't hesitate and promptly moved aside.

At this moment, he experienced a rollercoaster of emotions.

Just moments ago, he was devastated by the impending death of his father. Now, hearing that Asahi could save his father and was willing to help, his heart brimmed with hope once again.

Filled with hope, everyone's gaze focused on Asahi.

Taking a deep breath, Asahi looked solemnly at Might Duy lying on the ground.

At this point, Might Duy looked like a humanoid piece of charcoal.

The intense heat from the Eight Gates Formation had directly carbonized his body.

It was precisely because Might Duy's talent wasn't as high, and the power of the Eight Gates Formation wasn't as formidable as later generations like Might Guy, that he didn't immediately face death.

Observing Might Duy's appearance, Asahi furrowed his brow as part of his act.

When putting on a show, it had to be Oscar-level. He needed to make it seem challenging to save someone, to avoid future requests for assistance.

If it were someone else, he could simply refuse.

But just in case they played some tricks and approached through his disciples to seek his help, that would be a tricky situation.

...

As Asahi extended his hands, a serious expression appeared on his face. It seemed as if he couldn't afford to relax even a bit.

An invisible chakra fluctuation slowly enveloped Might Duy.

As this fluctuation became more pronounced, Might Duy's coal-like body gradually blurred.

"Secret Art-Fuinjutsu: Forbidden Spirit" 

With Asahi's rapid technique, a bizarre distortion occurred in the space around Might Duy.

It's as if that space enveloped by invisible chakra is undergoing irregular transformations.

At this moment, all eyes are firmly captivated.

One by one, no one dares to breathe, afraid to disturb Asahi's performance.

Asahi can feel the rapid depletion of chakra within himself.

Slowly, the amount of chakra consumed has surpassed what an ordinary Jonin could possess.

Keep in mind, that the chakra within Asahi is Sage Chakra, yet it's depleting so quickly.

Moreover, there's still no sign of slowing down, even at this moment.

Fortunately, as Asahi's chakra is being spent, Duy's body is gradually returning to its original state.

Until Asahi's chakra consumption exceeds that of four Elite Jounin, Duy's body finally returns to its normal appearance.

Asahi looked at Duy, he knew it would consume a lot of chakra, but he didn't expect that simply reversing a body's form would use up the chakra equivalent to Elite Jonin.

Indeed, four Elite Jonin worth of chakra is a drop in the ocean for Asahi.

But what comes next is the real challenge—the vitality. How much chakra will that consume?

Is it because Duy's strength is too astonishing, or is using the Forbidden Spirit to reverse life and death too inefficient?

...

As Duy's body slowly recovers, everyone rejoices, and Might Guy is overwhelmed with tears.

But seeing that Asahi hasn't stopped, everyone knows it's not over yet, so they still don't dare to speak.

Time passes second by second, and Asahi's face becomes increasingly pale.

Even though he knows that using the Forbidden Spirit to reverse life and death comes at a great cost, the cost-effectiveness is completely inferior to the Rinnegan.

After all, the more powerful the entity, the greater the energy required for resurrection.

Like how Nagato can easily revive most people in Konoha, but Six Paths Obito only revived Madara, severely draining his vitality.

However, the cost-effectiveness is just too poor. Having only replenished less than half of his vitality, Asahi has already consumed an unknown amount of chakra.

From this perspective, Naruto is indeed an overpowered guy. After activating his Sage of Six Path Yang Mode, he can easily save Might Guy, who used the Eight Inner Gates when facing Madara.

How much life energy does that require? Even the Sage of Six Paths is generous with it.

Feeling his depletion, Asahi couldn't help but want to stop here.

Yes, it's not worth it, let's stop here.

If he continues to consume like this, by the time Duy recovers, he'll be revealing a weakened state himself.

The ninja world is too dangerous; his high and mighty image must not be shattered, and there shouldn't be any signs of weakness, lest someone like Danzo takes advantage.

Moreover, Duy's health is no longer an issue; it's just that due to the depletion of his life force, he can't be a ninja anymore.

But for Asahi, this might not be a bad thing.

Thinking of this, Asahi slowly stopped the chakra output.

As Asahi ceased, the hazy distortion around Duy also disappeared.

"Dad!"

Watching Duy breathing steadily, Duy couldn't help but rush forward, collapsing into Duy's embrace.

Tears of joy gushed directly from Kurenai's eyes as she witnessed this reunion.
