LIGHTNOVELWORLD Chapter 3: Eight Inner Gates, Obtained
Because she had an appointment today, Uchiha Chiba walked towards the woods above Hokage Rock after leaving the hospital.
Half an hour later, just as he was about to reach his destination, he could already see Might Duy standing on his head and doing push-ups with one hand next to the big tree.
"Brother Duy."
When there were still dozens of meters away from Might Duy, Uchiha Chiba could no longer contain the excitement in his heart, waved his hand, and shouted at the figure in front.
Eight Inner Gates, finally got it.
"Hey, Chiba, you are still so energetic."
After hearing Uchiha Chiba's voice, Might Duy suddenly exerted force on his right hand, which was supporting his whole body weight, and completed a perfect backflip in the air before landing firmly on the ground.
Then he gave a thumbs up to Uchiha Chiba, showing a row of white front teeth.
Arriving in front of Might Duy, Uchiha Chiba looked at Might Duy's smooth movements just now and couldn't help but think of the time when he first met Might Duy.
After knowing that he had the gift of immortality and overgrowth, Uchiha Chiba had been thinking about how to obtain the Eight Inner Gates.
First of all, the Sealed Book is excluded. Let's not say whether the senior management of Konoha will give the Sealed Book to an Uchiha for observation. Even if Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others lost their minds and were willing to show Uchiha Chiba, he also doesn't think that the Eight Inner Gates can be learned through the Sealed Book.
Uchiha Chiba guessed that the current Book of Sealings does not record Eight Inner Gates at all.
As for why Uchiha Chiba came to such a conclusion, it must be mentioned as the inventor of the Eight Inner Gates.
In the previous life, many Hokage fans argued endlessly about who was the inventor of the Eight Inner Gates.
Of course, the reason for this is that the old thief Kishimoto did not clearly say who the inventor of the Eight Inner Gates was.
First of all, the first point of view is that the evil Senju old ghost, Senju Tobirama, invented the Eight Inner Gates.
As the recognized master of forbidden arts in the Hokage, he developed countless forbidden arts in his life, and the most famous one was used throughout the second half of the Hokage: the filth of the plot is reincarnated.
But the flaw in this view is: how did Might Duy, a ten-thousand-year-old Genin, obtain the Eight Inner Gates? You must know that not everyone can read the Sealed Book casually.
Naruto? That was just a scene played by Sarutobi Hiruzen.
Then the second point of view is that the Eight Inner Gates was invented by Might Duy's ancestors during the Warring States Period. This point of view was proposed when Might Duy opened the Seven Gates to fight against Madara.
Madara said something like this: "It's not red steam, I'm really underestimated."
It can be known from this sentence that Madara has met the person who opened the Eighth Gate of Death before.
But there are loopholes in this view, that is, if Eight Inner Gates was invented by Might Duy's ancestors during the Warring States Period, then Eight Inner Gates would have become famous in the ninja world long ago.
Of course, this person may also be Might Duy, after all, when Might Duy died, it was the time when World War III broke out.
At this time, although Uchiha Madara was dying, he was relying on the vitality transmitted by the Gedo Statue to survive. Most likely it was the information collected through the Bai Jue he sent out.
Let's look at it from the fact that Might Duy has been a Genin all his life and was laughed at by his teammates.
At that time, Konoha didn't know that there was Eight Inner Gates.
And then there's the last point.
The inventor of Eight Inner Gates is Might Duy.
But in Might Duy's memories, Might Duy himself said that it took him twenty years of practice to master this technique.
Might Duy was born in the 13th year of Konoha and died in the 49th year of Konoha at the age of 36.
In other words, Might Duy started practicing Eight Inner Gates when he was a teenager.
The flaw in this view is that Might Duy, who had mediocre qualifications, developed the buggy Eight Inner Gates when he was about ten years old, and successfully invented it in just a few years.
To Uchiha Chiba, this view is fantasy.
In this regard, Uchiha Chiba can only say that Kishimoto is just a manga artist. He knows Hokage and has a lot of bugs, but he doesn't know how to fill them in.
Therefore, Uchiha Chiba's view is that the person who invented the Eight Inner Gates should be Might Duy's father.
Of course, no matter who the inventor is, it is a fact that Might Duy can use Eight Inner Gates.
After having a goal, Uchiha Chiba is also ready to take action.
Five-year-old Uchiha Chiba, in order to meet Might Duy, would go out for training morning and night.
And a month later, hard work paid off, and Uchiha Chiba finally met Might Duy, who was also training.
Since then, the frequency of encounters between the two has continued to increase. From strangers at the beginning, Might Duy took the initiative to invite Uchiha Chiba to train together.
Although in the beginning, Uchiha Chiba's purpose of approaching Might Duy was for Eight Inner Gates, but later, after seeing Might Duy's innocence, kindness, cheerfulness, and self-discipline, Uchiha Chiba, who was infected by him, also recognized Might Duy as a person.
Sincerely calling Might Duy 'Brother Duy.'
"Chiba, do you really insist on learning the forbidden art of Eight Inner Gates?"
Might Duy was very puzzled. As a genius of the Uchiha clan, it stands to reason that Uchiha Chiba only needs to develop Sharingan well to reach a level that many ninjas cannot reach in their lifetime.
"Yes, Brother Duy, you said you would teach me the Eight Inner Gates when I was ten years old, and I have been preparing for it in the past few years. I have been training unremittingly every day just for today."
Looking at Uchiha Chiba's firm eyes, Might Duy couldn't help but feel in a trance, looking at the boy in front of him as if he was seeing his younger self.
There is no confusion, only firm belief.
"Yoshi, if that's the case, then I'll hand over the Eight Inner Gates to you."
"Eight Inner Gates is a forbidden technique that my father spent 10 years developing.
First of all, the first Gate of Opening. After opening the Gate of Opening, the restriction of Chakra in the brain area can be lifted, which can overload the body's energy consumption and increase strength and speed."
"The last Gate of Death, when the last gate is opened, will gain dozens of times more power than the five shadows, but the cost is that the user will die."
Along with Might Duy's explanation, his body gradually changed. Every time he explains a gate, Might Duy will open the corresponding gate, showing the powerful power of Eight Inner Gates.
After Might Duy finished explaining, the airflow erupted around him like a Category 7 hurricane, and his hair stood up straight, ignoring gravity, as if a Saiyan had turned on Super Saiyan form.
The surrounding leaves were also blown loudly.
"Unfortunately, I can only drive to the sixth Gate of View now, so I can only show you this far."
Might Duy looked at Uchiha Chiba and said regretfully.
After listening to Might Duy's explanation, Uchiha Chiba finally knew who the inventor of the Eight Inner Gates was that Hokage fans had been arguing about in his previous life.
That was Might Duy's father.
This also confirmed his guess.
And it also relatively reasonably makes up for the loopholes in several previous views.
But there is one more thing that makes Uchiha Chiba very curious.
"Brother Duy, your strength is now comparable to that of Jōnin, right? Why are you still willing to be a Genin?"
After hearing Uchiha Chiba's question, Might Duy looked serious.
"Chiba, you must firmly remember that the core concept of Eight Inner Gates is self-restraint and restraint.
"This power is not used to show off or satisfy personal desires, but exists to protect the most important people and things in our hearts."
"Okay, Chiba, now I'll teach you how to practice Eight Inner Gates."
Outskirts of the Forest of Death.
When Might Duy handed over the complete Eight Inner Gates to Uchiha Chiba, the moon was already high in the sky.
"Chiba, I have taught you the cultivation method of Eight Inner Gates. I hope you will never open the last gate."
As Might Duy's voice fell, starting from Uchiha Chiba's body as the center, a strong wave of air suddenly spread out to all sides.
Eight Inner Gates, the fourth gate 'Gate of Pain' opens.
As Uchiha Chiba recited silently in his heart, Chakra instantly rushed to the Gate of Pain, and Uchiha Chiba, who opened the fourth Gate of Pain, suddenly found a powerful force pouring into his body instantly.
Feeling this power, Uchiha Chiba clenched his fists, feeling like he could hit himself ten times ago.
Might Duy was stunned for a moment, then sighed. Is this a genius?
You can use it as soon as you learn Eight Inner Gates.
After being stunned for a while, he reminded: "Chiba, stop first. Don't last too long the first time, otherwise it will cause damage to the body."
"Okay, Brother Duy."
Uchiha Chiba, who has the gift of immortality, doesn't care at all if it damages his body.
But he didn't want to be exposed so early.
Otherwise, it would be a tragedy if someone catches him and uses him as a guinea pig.
"Okay, Chiba, it's getting late, go home early." Since Uchiha Chiba has learned the Eight Inner Gates, there is no point in staying here anymore.
Uchiha Chiba nodded when he heard this and said, "Then I will go back first. Thank you, Brother Duy."
After saying that, Uchiha Chiba bowed to Might Duy.
Uchiha Chiba is sincerely grateful to Might Duy, after all, Eight Inner Gates is a secret technique developed by his father.
Might Duy is not related to him, nor is he a master-student relationship.
How should we repay such kindness?
Uchiha Chiba thought of how Might Duy had been a Genin all his life, and later after having his son Might Guy, he knelt down and begged the then captain in order not to be kicked out of the team.
Uchiha Chiba already has a plan in mind.
This plan is also very simple, just let the people of Konoha see the power of Eight Inner Gates.
He believed that the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was in his prime, would definitely form a taijutsu class like Kakashi as long as he wasn't stupid. (In the "Final Chapter" of the theatrical version, there is a taijutsu class dedicated to learning Eight Inner Gates.)
By then, even if Might Duy knows only Taijutsu, he will still have a chance to be promoted to Jōnin.
