Now Is the Time... to Protect Someone Important to You, Even at the Cost of Your Life!

[Shimura Danzō: "Sensei, do you believe me? I really didn't do any of those things..."]

[Tobirama Senju: "Like hell I believe you! Give those eyes back to their owners, damn it! ☄ฺ(◣д◢)☄"]

[Shimura Danzō: "None of you understand. I did it to protect Konoha..."]

[Tobirama Senju: "Danzo, you're far too indecisive!"]

[Shimura Danzō: "Enough, I'm the one who..."]

[Hiruzen Sarutobi: "???"]

[Ōnoki: "Konoha's gossip really is more entertaining..."]

[Mizukage Mei Terumi: "It really is. Elder Danzo actually did so many inhuman things..."]

The footage continued.

After graduating, Might Guy kept carrying out missions for the village.

He also heard many unflattering rumors about his father.

His father was called an idiot.

He couldn't do anything, he was an eternal Genin, he did D-rank missions every day...

As time went on, Might Guy grew somewhat disappointed in his father.

The scene changed again.

One evening, the two slept together.

Guy watched his father leave the house, a puzzled look in his eyes.

The scene changed once more.

Might Guy and his team met their Jonin leader at Konoha's entrance and reported on their mission.

"I'm sorry. Please forgive me. I absolutely won't make the same mistake again..."

A familiar, humble voice reached them.

"You say that every time, but you keep making the same mistake. We'll have to kick you off the team!"

"Please, don't!"

Might Duy kept pleading, even falling to his knees.

Guy looked at his father in the distance, his face dark.

His father had destroyed his pride.

Plunk!

Might Guy threw a stone into the river.

"He actually did something so embarrassing and even got on his knees before someone. That's not youth at all..."

"But that's how he raised you..."

Kakashi sighed softly and turned to look into the distance. "I think your dad is the coolest ninja I've ever met!"

Hearing Kakashi's words, Might Guy fell silent.

Late one night, his father woke him.

"There's only one last thing I can do for you... Listen up. You must watch carefully now, Might Guy!"

It was rare for his father to be so serious.

Late at night,

Cicadas chirped in the surrounding woods, and Might Guy looked puzzled.

The next second,

His father dropped into a horse stance, and a fierce gale suddenly erupted around him!

The gale swept across the surrounding grass,

Branches rustled,

Birds took flight in alarm, and an invisible hand swept the dark clouds aside, casting clear moonlight over his father!!

Might Guy swore he would never forget the sight of his father like that for the rest of his life.

"Dad, what's this?"

"Eight Gates Formation, one of the forbidden techniques. I'm just a Genin, but I trained every day for twenty years before I mastered this move!" Might Duy's eyes were resolute.

"Twenty years?" Might Guy's lips trembled.

"This is the only move I can teach you, and for you, it's also the most special one!"

"Special?"

"You're already an outstanding ninja. When you use this move, you must place a strict condition on it: self-restraint!"

The gale continued to blow,

And the music gradually grew mournful, giving it a cinematic feel...

The surroundings gradually fell quiet.

Cicadas chirped all around, and only his father's words echoed in his mind.

Self-restraint... What does that mean?

The scene gradually blurred.

Might Guy stared intently at Madara Uchiha high above, his eyes resolute.

Now,

He finally understood what self-restraint meant!

Might Guy ran forward with all his might, a vast amount of Chakra gathering in his chest.

"Chakra is gathering at the Gate of Death's pressure point..." Madara looked at the scene below, surprise in his eyes.

In the blink of an eye, a great cloud of blood-red steam began to burn around Might Guy as he ran.

"Eight Gates Formation, Eighth Gate, Gate of Death..."

That voice rang out in Might Guy's mind once more. As the saying went, people recalled their lives just before they died...

Perhaps he was no exception.

"This is bad! We're surrounded by enemies!"

"There's no way out now!"

All the Konoha ninja fell into despair. In the distance stood Kirigakure's Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist!

Artillery fire raged all around.

Smoke filled the air, and all the Konoha ninja fell into despair.

"Didn't think even brats from other ninja villages would know who we are." Juzo Biwa looked at them mockingly.

[Juzo Biwa: "This is Might Duy! Something incredible is coming, so all of you watch carefully!"]

[Suikazan Fuguki: "The Eight Gates Formation again. What a beautiful sight!"]

[Jinin Akebino: "After more than ten years, we get to witness that legendary move again..."]

[Raiga Kurosuki: "What kind of era are we living in?!!!!!"]

In the Pure Land.

The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist collectively climaxed!

They...

Had seen the legendary Eight Gates Formation again!!!

Meanwhile,

It wasn't just the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.

The entire Shinobi World was captivated by the scenes in the video.

This was the pinnacle of Taijutsu... the Eight Gates Formation!

The footage continued.

Juzo Biwa looked at the surrounded group in the distance and raised an eyebrow.

"We've become famous too. Oh, there's a little nick in my blade. I need to let it drink some blood and regenerate."

At that moment,

A green blur cut through the air in the woods, rushing toward them.

Genma Shiranui clenched his teeth, despair in his eyes.

"What do we do? There are only a few of us. We can't possibly beat them..."

No sooner had he spoken than a green blur plummeted from high above.

"Made it just in time..."

"Dad!" Might Guy looked surprised.

"Dad, what are you doing here? You're just a Genin!"

Might Duy shook his head. "No more talk. Run! I'll buy you time!"

Might Guy said anxiously, "But if we run, what about you?

They're elite Jonin, and the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist! You can't beat them alone, Dad!"

Might Duy shook his head. "I have the Eight Gates Released Formation. Did you forget?"

"But that move..."

"Self-restraint!"

Might Duy cut Guy off, turned his head, and gave him a thumbs-up. "Now is..."

The scenes gradually overlapped.

The images of the past blurred, giving way to the present.

"The time to protect what's most important to you, even at the cost of your life!"

"Eight Gates Released Formation, open!"

Might Guy's entire body was enveloped in blood-red steam.

At that moment,

The music suddenly swelled with passion.

Kakashi watched the scene in the distance. "Guy, you really..."

Minato hesitated. "How could this happen..."

Madara Uchiha looked down from high above.

"Red steam... Is that the blood vapor unique to opening all eight gates?"

[Mizukage Mei Terumi: "Such powerful Chakra... It's probably more than ten times as vast as the Five Kage's!"]

[Hashirama Senju: "His body has turned blood-red..."]

[Ōnoki: "As expected, you can't judge a person by their appearance..."]

[Tenten: "Is this what Guy-sensei looks like when he gets serious...?"]

[Rock Lee: "Guy-sensei..."]

[Madara Uchiha: "Heh, I can't possibly fail..."]
