Senju Chen shook his numb arm and looked at Might Guy, his eyes completely changed.
He originally thought that after more than a year of Lightning Body Tempering, his physical strength and reaction speed had already far exceeded those of his peers, and he should have an absolute advantage in a pure Taijutsu contest.
But reality gave him a loud slap in the face.
Might Guy's strength is not inferior to him at all, and even in terms of explosive power, it is faintly better!
What's even more terrifying is the other party's Battle Intuition.
That was not experience or skill, but a beast-like instinct. He seemed to be able to predict his smallest dodge movements, and with every attack, he blocked his escape route just right, forcing himself to have the most direct and brutal collision with him.
"Hahahaha! Enjoyable! Chen-kun, your body is as tough as steel!" Might Guy laughed excitedly and rushed forward again.
For a moment, people mingled with each other on the training ground, and the muffled sound of fists and feet clashing could be heard endlessly.
Senju Chen completely gave up the idea of attacking and devoted all his energy to defense and dodge. His movement was erratic, like a ghost, and he found the glimmer of hope again and again amidst Might Guy's stormy attacks.
Might Guy, on the other hand, is like a tireless beast. His attacks are full of raw power. Every punch and every kick is determined to completely destroy the opponent.
Senju Chen's forehead gradually became sweaty.
He found that his combat experience and combat IQ seemed a bit pale in front of the pure and extreme "power" of Might Guy.
The other party is not playing tricks with you at all.
No matter how many tricks you try, I can break them all with just one punch.
As expected of you, Might Guy...
This can no longer be explained by hard work. This guy is a unique genius in Taijutsu!
Might Guy was covered in steam, and sweat had already soaked through his green tights, but the excitement on his face became even stronger.
Senju Chen's situation was not much better. He felt that his physical strength was being consumed rapidly, and the soreness and numbness in his arms almost made it impossible for him to lift them up.
After narrowly dodging an upper kick once again, the two of them distanced themselves tacitly, both breathing heavily.
"That's it for now. Let's have a drink of water and rest first."
"Kay." Senju Chen took advantage of the break to drink water and asked, "Your father... is also a very strong Taijutsu ninja, right?"
When he mentioned his father, the enthusiasm on Might Guy's face subsided slightly. He nodded heavily, with deep pride and admiration in his eyes.
"That's right! My father is the tallest Konoha! He is the goal of my life!"
"What a pity..." Senju Chen looked at him and asked, "I heard Sister Tsunade talk about Matt Duy-senpai..."
Might Guy's eyes dimmed.
The burning flame was like being poured down by a basin of cold water, leaving only curls of green smoke.
He walked to the corridor in silence, sat down, and wiped the sweat from his face with a towel.
Senju Chen also sat down next to him and didn't ask any more questions, just waiting quietly.
"Father..." After a long time, Might Guy spoke in a low voice that was completely different from his usual style, "He died while performing a mission."
"It was a very temporary mission. It seemed to be to deliver supplies to a certain border outpost. It was very simple. It didn't even have a ninja rating."
"He smiled and told me that morning that he would work out with me when he came back."
"But... he never came back."
"The village said that my father died..."
Might Guy's voice was very calm, but Senju Chen could feel the huge sadness suppressed under the calmness.
"Then has your father's body been returned?"
"No, the village said that their father's complete body was not found, but from the traces of battle and the scattered flesh and blood at the scene, it was determined that his father had been sacrificed."
Senju Chen's heart also sank.
Matt Dai, in the original work, in order to protect his son and his companions, opened the last gate of the Eight Gates of Armor, single-handedly defeated the seven Ninja Swordsmen, and finally kicked four of them to death.
Such a powerful and great person actually... died on a supply mission that didn't even have a grade rating?
This is ridiculous.
"When did that happen?" Senju Chen's tone was unconsciously solemn.
Might Guy was stunned for a moment, seeming to be recalling.
"About... seven years ago," he said with some uncertainty.
"Originally, my father agreed to send it to me personally on the day I went to school, but..."
Might Guy's words are full of a child's longing for his father.
Seven years ago!
Senju Chen felt as if there was a thunderous explosion in his mind.
Seven years ago, it was Tsunade who took him to Konoha!
Was it because his butterfly wings fanned the trajectory of fate, leading to the premature death of Might Duy?
But at that time, he was just a helpless child. Under the protection of Tsunade, he lived in seclusion and could not possibly affect the mission of Konoha Ninja.
Or should I say...
Is there a deeper reason hidden behind this?
Why does a supply mission of transporting materials need a Genin to carry out it? And why does he never return? What is the result of the subsequent investigation of the village?
Perhaps in the eyes of most people, even in the eyes of Might Guy, his father is just a Genin of Konoha.
But Senju Chen, who has read the original work, knows that just by using Might Duy to drive Eight Gates Released Formation hard steel Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, he killed four and escaped with three. This kind of strength is not something that ordinary people can retain.
How did Might Duy die? Or is Might Duy dead? Or is he simply missing?
Countless questions instantly filled Senju Chen's brain.
He looked beside him at the boy with thick eyebrows who fell silent again because he recalled his father. The trouble in Senju Chen's heart did not lessen but worsened.
This seemingly peaceful village, this Konoha under the sun, how many unknown secrets are hidden under the water?
It seems that it is necessary to go to the archives of Intelligence Division and check the "temporary mission" seven years ago.
He calmly suppressed this idea in his heart, put a gentle smile on his face again, and patted Might Guy on the shoulder.
"Kai, the deceased is gone. Duy-senpai is in heaven, and he must hope to see you burning your youth more vigorously than he did."
"Chen-kun..." Might Guy raised his head, his eyes red, and nodded heavily.
"Yeah! You're right! Father will definitely want to become a stronger ninja than him!"
"Come, Chen-kun, let us continue the showdown of youth..."
