Chapter 141 Drawing the Eight Gates Formation [Second Update]
"If I had a son, I'd want to raise him to be a ninja like you, Naruto!"
Faced with the truth that Naruto Uzumaki wanted to reveal, Minato Namikaze simply spoke gently.
Without further ado, Naruto and Yamato, under the influence of the Dragon Vein's power, returned to their own era.
In that era, everything happened in the blink of an eye.
Sakura and Sai had just escaped danger when they saw the two of them collapse on the ground.
The two of them have completely lost their memories of going back to the past, as if it had never happened.
At this moment, the video in the diary finally ended.
Everyone was so moved that they were speechless for a moment.
"Minato, in the final moments, you must have realized something, right?"
39
Jiraiya, recalling Minato Namikaze's final appearance, clearly guessed that Naruto Uzumaki was his son.
But his own son didn't recognize him. What else could it be but that he was already dead?
Even in the face of such an unfavorable situation, knowing that he might die in the future, he still chose to seal his memories in order to ensure that his son could live.
This act of bravely facing death is also consistent with his understanding of Minato Namikaze's personality.
He was not a ninja who was afraid of death.
Although neither of them will remember anything in the end, even just seeing his son one last time in his final moments might be a rare comfort for the prematurely deceased Minato.
Jiraiya felt a pang of sadness thinking about his perfect, all-around perfect disciple.
He resolved not to peek into the bathhouse for three days in memory of his disciple.
"The Fourth Hokage, a perfect Hokage, what a pity." Itachi Uchiha sighed, his voice faintly heard in the dark secret room.
"Teacher, Obito, Rin." Kakashi Hatake once again fell into nostalgia for the past.
In order to help him move on from his past, the Third Hokage specifically transferred him out of the Anbu.
But did he really get out of it?
Perhaps. I've moved on a bit, but not completely.
He usually doesn't think about those people and things from the past when he has nothing to do, but seeing his former teacher at this moment couldn't help but stir up memories of the past.
"No wonder I lost my memories of that time; it turns out I was sealed away by the teacher using a sealing technique."
Kakashi Hatake finally understood why there was such a mission that he had no idea about.
"The Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, the worst of the worst."
Uchiha Sasuke had mixed feelings.
I felt a mix of envy and jealousy, but also a bit of discomfort.
Although she envied him for being able to go back in time and see his father, upon closer reflection, she realized that at least she had a childhood, while that loser had never seen his parents since birth.
Having lived that kind of life since childhood, I guess I'm quite fortunate.
Among the members of Class 7, Sakura is probably the only one from a good family background who grew up normally.
Even Kakashi-sensei heard that his family was also unfortunate. He inquired about Kakashi-sensei and heard that his mother had passed away when he was very young, and his father had committed suicide before he was old enough to take care of the whole family.
For a moment, his feelings were also very complicated.
"Does a technique to reverse time really exist?"
"Uchiha Sasuke muttered to himself."
At the same time, Kitahara Kaede sincerely washed his hands and silently recited the mantra.
He will have one more chance to win a prize before he departs tomorrow.
"System, lottery draw begins."
Soon, a system wheel appeared in front of Kitahara Kaede.
The pointer on the turntable spun rapidly, then stopped after a moment, pointing in one direction.
"The Essentials of Eight Gates Formation Training (Part 1)"
Kitahara Kaede was taken aback, not expecting to pull out this thing.
The spinning wheel then disappeared, and a golden light entered Kitahara Kaede's mind.
The cultivation method of the Eight Gates Formation immediately appeared in his mind, but he only knew the essentials of the first four gates.
The Eight Gates of Dunjia consist of eight gates: Open Gate, Rest Gate, Life Gate, Injury Gate, Block Gate, View Gate, Shock Gate, and Death Gate.
However, the cultivation methods in Kitahara Kaede's mind only included four gates: the gate of opening, the gate of cultivation, the gate of life, and the gate of injury.
"This time, instead of directly mastering it, they've only provided the cultivation method?"
Kitahara Kaede stroked his chin, pondering the items he had drawn earlier, which were all sorts of different things.
It includes everything from bloodline and physique to ninjutsu, explosive tags, and silver.
Bloodlines and physical constitutions are usually directly integrated with him, while ninjutsu is generally directly instilled into his mind, allowing him to master it instantly. For example, the Flying Thunder God Technique and medical ninjutsu were done this way.
However, he already had the cultivation methods and essentials of the first four gates of the Eight Gates Formation in his mind; all he lacked was some practice.
You should practice more, and you'll become proficient quickly, but proficiency is just the beginning.
Both Lee Sin and Might Guy use the Eight Gates Formation, so how can they be the same person?
He still remembers the shock he felt when he first saw Lee open the fourth gate. Even Gaara, who had given off such a strong sense of pressure in the early stages, was almost destroyed by Lee after he opened the fourth gate.
However, Xiao Li's glory was limited to this one battle, after which his account was banned for a long time.
Even later in the story, when Naruto and Hinata got married, he still didn't have Guy's strength, and when faced with the falling meteor, he could only open up to the sixth gate.
Although he was initially known as a hard-working genius, it was later discovered that the key to being a hard-working genius is hard work, not genius.
He does have some talent in physical skills, but only a little. Compared to those who are clearly more talented, no matter how hard he tries, he can't catch up.
This sets the tone for the entire Naruto series!
Initially, we emphasized hard work, but later we realized that while hard work is important, talent is even more crucial!
Even later on, talent becomes less important; bloodline becomes the most crucial factor.
So many ninjas possessed amazing talent and skill, such as Kakashi Hatake, the top technician of Konoha; Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage with all chakra natures; Orochimaru, the top scientist of the Hokage; and Itachi Uchiha, the filial son.
They are all incredibly talented individuals, but so what? When it comes to bloodline, if you can't, you can't.
Without the bloodline of the Otsutsuki clan, without that ancestral bloodline, no matter how powerful you are, it's useless.
"It's not bad. Although there's no further training method yet, it's perfectly adequate for now," Kitahara Kaede thought for a moment.
These Eight Gates Formation techniques are considered divine arts that defy the heavens for mortals. In a world that values bloodlines, if you don't have a strong enough bloodline, you have absolutely no chance of winning against those powerful aliens.
If available, the Eight Gates Formation could provide a little bit of that.
Opening the seventh gate was enough for Might Guy, an elite Jonin-level player, to beat up Kisame Hoshigaki, a Kage-level player. Opening the eighth gate was even more impressive, as he kicked Madara Uchiha so hard that it almost ended the series.
In the early stages, this was definitely a powerful ninjutsu.
If you're not afraid of death, you can easily fight your way up from Chunin to Jonin, and from Kage to Super Kage.
That is, the Six Paths level is different, because the Six Paths level has already transcended the realm of humanity.
That's downright inhuman!
For example, the Sage of Six Paths, whose physical body is dead, but whose soul still exists in the Pure Land of the Underworld, can he be considered a human?
And what about Princess Kaguya Otsutsuki, who has been trapped deep in the moon for so long? Can she be considered human?
Can the Sage of Six Paths, who can create a moon using the Earth Explosion Star, be considered human?
Being a human is too difficult, so I've decided to give up being a human.
Kitahara Kaede planned to try out the Eight Gates Formation, but of course, he couldn't choose to do it in the village.
Fortunately, he had buried a lot of Flying Thunder God Kunai in various missions, and immediately closed his eyes to feel them.
The next second, he appeared in a deserted, secluded forest outside the village.
Following the hints from the Eight Gates Formation in his mind, Kitahara Kaede immediately began to attack the first gate, opening it.
"Open the door! Open it!"
With a loud shout, a surge of chakra within Kitahara Kaede, under the control of his will, broke through the first of the Eight Gates within his body, opening the gate.
With a "boom!", countless green chakra lights burst forth from Kitahara Kaede's body.
In a short period of time, Kitahara Kaede's chakra level increased by thirty percent.
"Only thirty percent?" Kitahara Kaede paused, seemingly not as astonishing as when Lee opened the door.
However, although the percentage increase in his chakra may not seem high, it is definitely more than ten times the amount of chakra Lee increased back then.
After all, his basic chakra reserves are already comparable to those of a typical Kage-level shikigami.
Even a 30% increase in chakra is astonishing; it's equivalent to the chakra of several Jonin-level chakra users.
However, he did not exhibit the state described in the essential training manual of the Eight Gates, which states that opening the Eight Gates would cause the massive chakra to tear muscles and meridians, thus preventing the Eight Gates from being kept open for an extended period.
Over time, this can cause irreversible damage to the meridians.
Even in the original work, after Rock Lee opened the Eight Gates, his chakra level increased to a level that was visible to the naked eye, which is the explosive level of chakra brought about by opening the Eight Gates.
"Is it because it fused with the rudimentary immortal body of the Uzumaki clan?" Looking at his body, which was almost completely unaffected, Kitahara Kaede could only think of this as the only reason.
Of course, there's also the fusion of the Uchiha clan bloodline, all of which far surpasses the physique of an ordinary person like Rock Lee.
Xiao Li finds it difficult to sustain the burden of opening and closing doors for extended periods, but this poses no problem for Bei Yuanfeng. He can sense that he can maintain this burden for a long time simply by opening and closing doors.
According to the essence of opening the door, opening the door means breaking the limitations of the brain, so as to achieve the goal of exerting 100% of the body's ability, and overloading the body's energy to increase attack and speed.
Both attack power and speed will be greatly improved.
