“Kakashi, you go first—” Guy said to Kakashi, wiping the blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.

Earlier, Kakashi had wanted Guy to leave, but Guy certainly wouldn’t abandon Kakashi. Besides, Konoha needed Kakashi more.

“GO!!!” Without allowing Kakashi to object, Guy grabbed Kakashi’s collar and threw him away.

“<Eighth Gate: Gate of Death, Open! Eight Inner Gates Released Formation!>”

After tossing Kakashi away, Guy opened the final gate of the Eight Inner Gates—the Gate of Death.

With all eight gates open in the Eight Inner Gates Released Formation, red steam, generated by evaporating blood, enveloped his body. His power surged, dozens of times greater than a peak Kage.

“I never said I was going to kill you. Why are you going all out?” Shin looked at Guy, who had opened all eight gates, his expression somewhat exasperated.

Kakashi, standing in the distance, watched Guy, who was now wreathed in red steam, tears welling up in his eyes—

Kakashi knew the Eight Inner Gates forbidden technique well; he had even trained in it, though his mastery was far from Guy’s.

Once all eight gates were opened, the user would inevitably die. Guy’s father, Might Duy, had died after opening all eight gates.

However, Might Duy with all eight gates open was definitely not as strong as Might Guy with all eight gates open, because Might Guy’s base strength was greater than his father’s.

There was nothing to be particularly proud of. Might Guy being stronger than his father was because his father had paved the way for him.

“Little girl, I’m sending you back—” Shin glanced at Hanabi, then used Yomotsu Hirasaka to send her back to the Land of Whirlpools.

Though Hanabi would be safe here—Shin could guarantee she wouldn’t be harmed—she was somewhat in the way. So, Shin sent her back.

Guy, with all eight gates open, was a rare opponent. His combat strength had reached Six Paths level.

Even among Six Paths level individuals, he wouldn’t be considered weak. The only unfortunate thing was that he couldn’t sustain it.

After Guy opened the eighth gate, his life force was constantly draining away. He wouldn’t last long before his life force was completely depleted, and he died.

Such a massive power boost naturally came with a corresponding price.

“<Evening Elephant!>”

Guy’s fists struck the air at super-high speed, forming continuous air cannons shaped like elephant feet. Their power was enough to create a deep well in the ground.

Even if a meteor fell from the sky, the current Guy could shatter it.

And Evening Elephant had Five Steps. This was only the first Step; the subsequent attacks would become increasingly stronger.

Facing Guy’s attack, Shin naturally wouldn’t just stand there and take it.

“<Super Shinra Tensei!>”

Shin’s eyes transformed into the Nine-Tomoe Rinne-Tenseigan. His aura changed, and the clouds in the sky were dispersed by his sheer presence.

With Shin at the center, an immense repulsive force, capable of pushing away even small planets, was continuously released. Guy’s continuous air cannon attacks were also repelled.

“<Second Step!>”

Ignoring the strain on his body, Guy unleashed another air cannon. But without exception, it was still repelled by the repulsive force.

In fact, the repulsive force was steadily pushing closer to Guy—

“<Third Step!> <Fourth Step!> <Fifth Step!>” Guy’s fists, radiating power, strained against Shin’s Super Shinra Tensei.

“RAAAAAAGH——!” Guy let out a series of roars, but even the fifth Step of Evening Elephant couldn’t overcome the Super Shinra Tensei’s repulsive force.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

The surrounding mountain peaks, forests, including the ground and the clouds in the sky, all completely vanished. The ground became a massive basin, and even groundwater gushed out, forming an incredibly large lake.

Guy’s broken body slammed into the ground, more than a dozen bones shattered.

Nagato Uzumaki, using Super Shinra Tensei—could destroy the entire village of Konoha. If Shin used it with all his might, destroying a small planet wouldn’t be impossible.

Shin floated in mid-air, his expression extremely calm, looking down at Guy’s broken body.

Guy wasn’t dead. His fingers twitched, and he climbed out of the deep pit, looking up at Shin—

Opening the Eight Inner Gates Released Formation… and he hadn’t even scratched Shin???

His body’s injuries were partly self-inflicted from using the Eight Inner Gates Released Formation, and partly from the Super Shinra Tensei.

If not for Guy’s incredible power, which had allowed him to resist most of the repulsive force’s impact, he would have already been crushed into paste.

Shinra Tensei was both an offensive and defensive Ninjutsu.

The Shinobi world had many techniques hailed as the “Strongest shield,” such as the Shield of Shukaku and the Lightning Release Chakra Mode’s Lightning Armor.

However, the truly strongest defensive jutsu was likely Shinra Tensei. If your repulsive force was strong enough, forget attacks—You could even push away planets…

It was normal for Guy’s Evening Elephant to be unable to break through.

———

“Guy, I admire your tenacity,” Shin said to Might Guy.

Compared to those born with cheats, Might Guy had almost nothing. As a child, he was a dead-last, a failure unable to use Ninjutsu.

Yet, he could unleash such power now. All of this was earned through his own tireless efforts.

In terms of talent, Guy definitely wasn’t outstanding. He was the type of genius who achieved everything through hard work and sweat, not innate talent.

“It’s… an honor… to have… your… admiration….” Might Guy panted, each breath expelling a bloody mist that swirled around his body.

His skin was cracked like a tortoise shell, his blood boiling—literally boiling. His body was about to be scorched; it couldn’t bear the burden any longer.

Then, Might Guy assumed a running stance.

Seeing Guy’s posture, Shin knew he was about to use his strongest Taijutsu secret technique.

Night Guy—

This was the ultimate secret technique after Evening Elephant, used when all eight gates were open.

Might Guy then ran at near light speed, the chakra gathered throughout his body forming a bizarre dragon shape.

“UGHHHH… AAAAHHHHHH! <Night Guy!>”

Might Guy ran, even treading on air as if flying, and kicked towards Shin with all his might.

Space itself distorted. Anyone without profound mastery of Space-Time Ninjutsu would likely be unable to use it to dodge at this moment.

If Obito were here, facing this attack, he too would be unable to use Kamui to escape.

Though Obito’s Kamui was masterfully used, under this kind of spatial distortion, using Space-Time Ninjutsu had a high chance of failure.

“<Taijutsu Secret Technique — Starfall Strike!>”

Though Shin could dodge, he chose not to. He wasn’t afraid of a head-on clash. In terms of Taijutsu, Shin felt he could claim to be number one.

This punch, like a falling star. Pitch-black chakra formed a small galaxy, its surface burning with flames, colliding with Might Guy’s Night Guy.

———

Kakashi, already tens of miles away, knelt on the ground, struggling to support himself, his face a mask of stunned disbelief…

Even from such a great distance, he could still feel such immense pressure that he found it difficult to even stand.
