Fang Xu, thank you!

Fang Xu put away the two Void Spheres.

He closed his eyes and quickly pinpointed the chakra of Might Duy and the others.

He then activated Flying Thunder God.

A ripple passed through space, and Fang Xu appeared right beside Might Guy.

Might Guy was hurrying along with Might Duy on his back.

The aftereffects of opening the Seventh Gate had fully set in.

Might Duy's muscles were torn throughout his body, his meridians were damaged, and even his bones were riddled with hairline fractures.

He lay against Might Guy's back, his face pale, barely able to lift an arm.

"Fang Xu?"

Might Guy stopped as soon as he saw him.

"Duy's injuries are getting worse."

"He could still walk on his own earlier, but now he can't even stand."

Ebisu and Aoba Yamashiro hurried over as well.

Both had been worried that Might Duy would not survive the journey back to Konoha.

Fang Xu raised a hand and pressed it against Might Duy's back.

Green viridian force swiftly poured into his body.

His torn muscles began to heal.

His damaged meridians recovered.

The hairline fractures in his bones also vanished rapidly under the nourishment of that life force.

The viridian force did not stop there.

It repaired, one by one, the old injuries Might Duy had accumulated over years of arduous Eight Gates training.

Once those hidden injuries disappeared, his somewhat stiff joints regained their flexibility.

The vitality he had depleted over the years was fully replenished as well.

A moment later, Fang Xu withdrew his hand.

Might Duy jumped down from Might Guy's back.

He moved his arms, then threw several kicks in succession.

There was no pain in his body, nor any of the weakness that followed opening the Seventh Gate.

He was in even better shape
