Konoha, Allied Shinobi Forces headquarters.
"The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist who appeared on the battlefield have already been defeated by Might Guy? And four of them have been successfully sealed?"
"What about the other three?"
Shihōin Naraku stood before the map and turned to look at the communications ninja reporting the battlefield intelligence.
"Reporting!"
"The remaining three escaped the sealing procedure thanks to Hozuki Mangetsu's help and delaying efforts."
"But the Allied Shinobi Forces have already begun pursuing them. Captain Tatami Iwashi reported that they would soon finish sealing the remaining three."
"Good!"
Naraku nodded, thoroughly satisfied.
That confidence might have been a little excessive, but he did not think it was exaggerated at all.
And his confidence in the Allied Shinobi Forces came from Might Guy!
Once Might Guy activated the Eight Gates Formation, he was truly not someone an ordinary person could withstand.
Even without fully opening the final gate, Might Guy with just the first seven gates of the Eight Gates Formation open was a walking machine of destruction on the battlefield.
Aside from a handful of people, no one could stop him.
And if Might Guy opened all eight gates, there should have been no one on the battlefield at this point who could defeat him.
Just thinking about how he had nearly kicked Madara Uchiha to death later on, even in his Six Paths state, showed how terrifying Might Guy's combat strength was with the Gate of Death open.
So, as things stood, Naraku did not think anyone on the battlefield was a match for Might Guy.
