Feather Emperor City, Arhat Hall, Yu's private training ground for taijutsu.
At that moment, Yu stood in the center of the grounds, surrounded by inhuman things!
Those inhuman things were Mechanical Bronze Men—bronze-bodied, imposing in appearance, and possessed of terrifying Chakra.
One night six years ago, Yu had made a special trip to a village in the Land of Water to bid Yushiki farewell.
Before he left, Yushiki had given him the Ōtsutsuki Gentle Fist manual, as well as the secrets of the Mechanical Bronze Men.
It was said that Mechanical Bronze Men were tools specially used by Ōtsutsuki members to hone their taijutsu.
They had to be made from special materials through special methods, infused with Yin-Yang Release Chakra.
Even after Yu had gathered resources from across the entire Shinobi World, he had only managed to create eighteen Mechanical Bronze Men.
Since the purpose was to temper his taijutsu, Yu naturally would not do something as boring as using ocular techniques or ninjutsu against the Mechanical Bronze Men.
Incidentally, six years ago, when using taijutsu alone, Yu had once been beaten black and blue by a single Mechanical Bronze Man!
But now... Yu was challenging the Eighteen Bronze Men Formation, with all eighteen Mechanical Bronze Men fighting at full strength in perfect coordination!
Crackle... The veins at Yu's temples bulged as his Byakugan opened fully. Not only his right eye—even the Byakugan in his left eye, which had remained unopened during his battle with Koshiki, bore mysterious markings. It too had some secret technique inscribed within it, but Yu had no intention of using it on the Bronze Men.
"Haa." After taking a deep breath, Yu violently flung off his shirt, revealing his lean, powerful muscles. He wore only the lower half of his death god robes.
Buzz! Golden
