He raised his head and looked at the seven people in front of him. His eyes were very bright, as bright as two lamps. The corners of his mouth turned up, revealing his white teeth.
"Might Duy!"
When he shouted the last two words, his voice was as loud as thunder.
The soil in the clearing was shaken. All the birds in the trees flew up, and the moon was covered in darkness.
Biwa Jūzō's smile faded. He pulled Kubikiribōchō up from the ground and held it in his hands. Suikazan Fuguki put Samehada down from his shoulders and held it with both hands.
"This is..."
"Genin of Konoha?"
Might Duy stood in front of them, fists clenched, feet on the ground, staring at the seven people.
His green tights are very bright in the moonlight, and his white leggings are also very bright in the moonlight.
His shadow is very short, because the moon is above his head, and the shadow is shrunk at his feet, a small ball.
"Kay." He said without looking back.
"Father..." Kai's voice came from behind, trembling.
"Stand up."
Kai supported the ground and stood up slowly. His legs were shaking, his hands were shaking, and his whole body was shaking.
But he stood up. He stood behind Dai and looked at his father's back.
The back was much wider and straighter than he remembered.
When he was a child, he felt that his father's back was very broad. Later, when he grew up, he felt that his father's back was just like that.
Now he felt that his father's back was very broad.
Ebisu got up from the ground, leaned against the tree, and looked at Dai's back.
Genma Shiranui also stood up from the ground, covering his chest with his hands and looking at Dai's back.
Both men knew this man.
They only know that he is Kai's father, Wannian Genin.
When people in the village talk about him, they refer to him as "that ten thousand year old Genin".
No one calls his name, no one remembers his name.
But now he was standing in front of seven people, standing in front of seven Ninja Blades, without taking a step back.
"Kai." Dai spoke again, "Take your companions away."
Kai was stunned for a moment. "Father..."
"Let's go." Dai's voice was not loud but steady, "Leave this to me."
"Father." Kai's voice was trembling, "Aren't you leaving?"
"Kai." Dai didn't look back, "Take your companions away."
Kai didn't move.
His legs were shaking, his hands were shaking, and his lips were shaking.
He knew what his father meant. His father wanted to stand in the way alone and let him go.
But my father couldn't defeat them.
Father will die.
Seven people, seven Ninja Blade, Kirigakure except Mizukage, the seven strongest ninjas.
My father is not even a Chunin, and he can't even cast a decent ninjutsu. How can he block it? Can he block it with his life?
"Father, you will die if I don't leave," Kai said.
Dai turned his head and looked at Kai. There was no smile on his face, but his eyes were very bright, as bright as two lights.
He looked at Kai for a few seconds, then raised his right thumb and raised the corners of his mouth, revealing his white teeth.
"Kai. Do you still remember the trick I taught you?"
"Now, it's time for me to burn my youth."
Kai's tears fell.
He remembers. Of course he remembers.
That was the last trick his father taught him, and it was also the one he couldn't use casually.
My father said that he might never use this trick in his life, and he hoped he would never use it.
My father said that if I really use it one day, it will be the time to burn my youth.
Kai's tears flowed down his cheeks and dripped on the ground. He knew what his father was going to do.
He also knew that his father would die.
His mouth was open, wanting to say something, but something seemed to be blocked in his throat, and no words could come out.
He wanted to say no, he wanted to say let's go together, and he wanted to say there were other ways.
But he knew there wasn't.
Only if their father blocks here can the three of them leave. If their father doesn't block here, all three of them will die.
"Let's go," Dai said.
He didn't look at Kai anymore, turned around, and faced the seven people.
Kai gritted his teeth. He put Ebisu's arm on his shoulder, and then put Genma Shiranui's arm on his other shoulder.
Ebisu's legs were still shaking, and he was leaning heavily on Kai.
Genma Shiranui couldn't lift either of his hands, so he could only lean on Kai with his shoulders, which were also very heavy.
Kai himself was covered in wounds, blood was still oozing out, and his legs were shaking.
But he didn't let go. He dragged the two people and walked into the woods step by step.
Dai's voice came from behind.
"Eight Gates--"
The sound was so loud that the whole forest shook.
It was so big that the leaves on the tree fell loudly. It was so big that the three teenagers walking in front stopped at the same time.
"Seventh Gate·Gate of Wonder--Open!"
A wave of air exploded from the clearing.
It's not wind, it's Qi.
It is the kind of Qi that bursts out from the body, carrying temperature and weight.
The air wave hit the backs of the three teenagers, pushing them forward a few steps.
Ebisu almost fell down, but Kai caught him.
Genma Shiranui's hair was blown up by the air waves, and his eyes widened.
They looked back.
Dai stood there, but his body changed.
The green tights were bulging, and the exposed skin was red, as if it had been burned by fire.
His hair also stood up, his eyes were wider than before, and the whites of his eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes.
His feet stepped on the ground, and the soil on the ground cracked outwards with his feet as the center, and the cracks spread in all directions like a spider web.
There was a layer of light blue light around him, like fog or fire, beating on the surface of his body.
The seven people in front of him also stopped for a moment.
Not scared, just a little surprised.
A Genin suddenly burst out with this level of chakra.
Biwa Jūzō frowned, and he held Kubikiribōchō tighter.
Suikazan Fuguki holds Samehada horizontally in front of him, holding it with both hands.
Kushimaru Kuriarare took a step back, and Nuibari's steel wire straightened.
"Genin from Konoha?" Biwa Jūzō said, "Is this fucking Genin?"
Dai didn't answer. He rushed forward.
Kai turned around and continued walking, dragging Ebisu and Genma Shiranui.
He didn't look back. He didn't dare to look back. He knew what was happening behind him.
He can hear sounds.
There were the sounds of knives cutting on flesh, fists hitting bones, feet kicking on the ground, and people shouting.
Kai's tears welled up again. He didn't wipe them away. He dragged the two people and continued walking.
On Might Duy's side, he turned on Seventh Gate. Although it temporarily blocked the attack of seven people, he gradually found that Seventh Gate alone could not stop these people in front of him.
After all, Might Duy is not the future Might Guy. His physical fitness is too different from that of the later Might Guy, so the power of turning on Seventh Gate is also very different.
If Might Guy with Seventh Gate turned on is here, he will definitely be able to block Seven Ninja Swordsmen, and even have a chance to counterattack, but Might Duy will not be able to support it. He will not be able to hold on any longer.
"I can only use that one trick."
