Might Duy's Teachings

This waterfall doesn't even have a name, and it's not particularly spectacular; the water in the pool below it only reaches Shiyu's thighs.

"Training the Eight Inner Gates here? I wonder what the special meaning is? I also wonder how long it will take me to master the Eight Inner Gates here," Shiyu pondered.

"Kai! Did you bring everything?!" Dai asked seriously.

"I brought it!" Kai took off his shoes and pulled a key out of them.

"Ugh, this is disgusting." Shiyu was speechless.

Then, Might Duy said mysteriously, "This is our secret base. We were the first to discover him, and this is the perfect place to learn and train in the Eight Inner Gates!"

"Open the door! Open it!" Might Duy also crossed his arms, looking like a superior man.

Immediately afterwards, Kai shouted, "Eight Inner Gates! Open the gates!" Then, heat began to emanate from his body.

"Bang!" Might Duy couldn't resist stepping forward and giving him a good whack on the head.

"Kai, you misunderstood. I told you to open that door, not to open the Eight Inner Gates." Dai pointed to the door hidden by green vines and said.

"Sorry

Shiyu was too tired to even comment on the father and son, but it made Shiyu think of her own parents.

"What would it be like if they were still here?"

Led by Dai, Kai used a key to open the rusty iron gate. Inside, it was dark, but as soon as the three of them entered the house, the brazier inside lit itself.

"What an amazing thing. I wonder why there's a place like this in Konoha?"

"This place was left to us by our ancestors who used the Eight Inner Gates," Dai said.

"Look, these are the locations of the Eight Gates of the human body." Might Duy pointed to a diagram of the human body, on which the locations of the Open Gate, Gate of Healing, Gate of Life Gate of Pain, Gate of Limit, Gate of View, Gate of Wonder, and Gate of Death were clearly marked.

"The purpose of the Eight Gates in the human body is actually to protect it. The Eight Gates are like eight chakra valves; opening these eight valves will cause an explosive increase in chakra!"

"In other words, the Eight Gates is a special Nintaijutsu that opens the pressure points that suppress chakra flow, causing an explosive increase in one's own chakra within a short period of time, thereby increasing the damage of the technique."

"The first three gates—Open Gate, Gate of Healing, and Gate of Life— are considered safe zones within the Eight Inner Gates, posing no harm to the human body. Once these three gates are satisfied, one can learn the corresponding Front Lotus and Reverse Lotus."

"As for the four gates in the middle— the Gate of Pain, the Gate of Limit, the Gate of View, and the Gate of Wonder —opening one of them will cause even greater damage to the human body, with each layer being more severe than the last. However, the amplification effect gained will naturally be even greater!"

Kai nodded and asked, "Dad? What about the Gate of Death?"

"After using the other Seventh Gate, the valves can be reopened, and the body can recover to normal through rest. But the Gate of Death is the only one I have never used."

"But according to the theory of the Eight Inner Gates, each level is stronger than the last, at which point you will possess power more than ten times that of the Five Kage! But! Never use it unless absolutely necessary! Because, it is estimated, the price of opening the Gate of Death is death. I don't believe anyone can close the Gate of Death again." Might Duy pointed to the location of the heart, which remains the Gate of Death in the human body.

"Anyone whose heart suffers a serious injury would probably die, right? After all, when we exercise, we can only exercise our limbs, not our internal organs," Might Duy said.

However, Shiyu discovered a new approach.

"If opening the Eight Inner Gates causes damage to the body, can the healing effects of the Gouketu no Jutsu be used to treat the body in time to avoid the side effects?"

"For example, after rigorous training, I open the Gate of Death. By utilizing my unique physique and bloodline, and the restorative abilities of my stored Yin and Yang chakra, I can reduce physical damage while opening all the 'valve' within my body. Would that allow me to be exempt from the damage caused by the Eight Inner Gates for a period of time?"

After Shiyu finished speaking, Might Duy shook his head and said, "Doing this is very dangerous. Unless your self-healing ability has reached the point where you can recover quickly even if your heart is pierced, opening the Gate of Death will still be very dangerous."

Might Duy explained in detail, and seeing that Shiyu understood what he meant, he didn't intend to say anything more.

"Alright, Kai, demonstrate the first three doors!" Might Duy said.

Might Guy nodded, clapping his fist and saying, "Watch out! Something amazing is about to happen!"

"Eight Inner Gates! First Gate, Open!" Might Guy's entire body underwent a slight change. Through his Observation Eye, Shiyu could clearly see that the Gate to the Brain was opened like a valve, and half of the chakra restriction in the brain was lifted.

"Eight Inner Gates! Second Gate of Healing, open!" Might Guy's transformation became even more obvious. Shiyu knew that after the Gate of Healing was opened, people would forget their fatigue and their stamina could be restored indefinitely for a certain period of time, but it was already beginning to put some strain on the body.

"Next, the third Gate of Life, open!" Might Guy's skin turned red, the chakra valve on his chest was opened, and his entire body's condition would once again break through the limits, reaching an unexpected peak, while his strength and speed would also be significantly enhanced.

"That's enough!" Might Duy prompted.

"Release!" Might Guy then shut off his chakra valves, or the three gates, once again.

The demonstration was only recently completed, so Might Guy's physical workload wasn't too heavy.

"Now, leave it to me." Might Duy stepped forward and said, "Fourth Gate of Pain, open!"

Immediately afterwards, Might Duy opened the first four gates. Might Duy's eyes turned pure white, his veins bulged on his face, and his skin turned red. His strength and speed increased dramatically again based on the Gate of Life.

"Incredible! Dad! That's amazing!" Might Guy looked at Dai in astonishment, filled with admiration.

"Fifth Gate of Limit, open!" Might Duy opened the Five Gates again, and all Five Gates above his abdomen opened. His whole body burst out with green light. Shiyu could see that this green light was the chakra surging from Guy's body.

"Wow, that's amazing!" Shiyu couldn't help but exclaim. Might Duy's chakra was pitifully low, but even so, opening the Fifth Gate of Limit was enough for Jonin to fight against an elite Jonin with exceptional strength.

"It's not over yet! Open the Sixth Gate of View!" Might Duy didn't pause for long and opened the Sixth Gate of View directly. At this moment, the green color of his body was instantly swallowed by a white light, and then the chakra aura on his body disappeared on its own. After opening the Gate of View, he was already able to create sparks by friction with the air.

"Keep watching! This is the last one I can show!"

"Seventh Gate of Wonder! Open!"

"So strong!"
