Naruto: I, Shikotsumyaku, Byakugan Princess

Chapter 55 Sparring
early morning.

boom!
Boom!

The once quiet and desolate Hatake clan has become noisy.

The constant, loud thuds shattered Kakashi's sleepiness.

"Aha~"

I yawned and crawled out of bed.

Get up, get dressed, and draw back the curtains.

Golden sunlight illuminated the dark bedroom.

Shielding his eyes from the glaring sunlight, Kakashi squinted and looked out the window, puzzled.

On the empty training ground of the Hatake clan.

A small figure wearing a white cloak stood in the center of the arena, surrounded by green figures that kept flashing and turning into afterimages. It was Gray Glass and Might Guy.

What are these two doing here so early in the morning instead of sleeping?

Morning exercise?

Kakashi tidied his messy hair, filled a basin with water, and decided to brush his teeth while watching from the window.

Whizzing!

Might Guy's figure kept flashing in and out of the space around Gray Glass.

All the tentative kicks were easily blocked by Hui Li.

call!
The wind howled.

The green figure suddenly solidified behind Gray Glass.

Twist your waist and turn your hips.

Kick!

Woo!
There were no superfluous movements; the physical skills honed through countless trials could only be described as clean.

The terrifying whip kick evacuated the air into a vacuum.

Before even the wind could be heard, the toes were already close to Gray Glass's slender neck.

Konoha's powerful whirlwind!

Kakashi's Sharingan spun rapidly as he silently recited the name of the technique. Having frequently faced challenges from Guy, he was intimately familiar with it.

This is Akai's starting stance when he's serious.

Extremely fast; from the moment the kick is extended to the moment the enemy is killed, the reaction time is no more than one-sixteenth of a second.

Due to its immense power, even if it is successfully blocked, ordinary taijutsu-type Chunin will immediately lose the ability to resist, making it an absolute scapegoat for weaklings.

How will Hui Li block this attack?

Kakashi had already devised a strategy in his mind and was watching with great interest whether Hairi's response would be the same as his.

He beat up a Jonin at the Ninja Academy so badly that he was hospitalized before he even enrolled.

This is a feat that even he has never accomplished.

His curiosity about this mysterious, genius blind girl was also extremely strong.

soon.

Kakashi's curiosity, along with the confusion he had when he woke up, was answered.

Her fair arms, as white as fresh lotus roots, stretched out in front of her neck, seemingly slowly but actually quickly.

boom!
The muscular thighs collided violently with the fair, fleshy forearms, producing a muffled, thunderous sound that made Kakashi, who was brushing his teeth, grimace.

It felt as if Hui Li was about to be sent flying backwards by a blow in the next second.

However, reality was completely different from what Kakashi had imagined.

Faced with such a terrifying attack, Hui Li simply shuddered to absorb the force.

Subsequently.

Twist your waist and rotate your hips.

Kick!

Woo!
The same physical movements, equally clean and harmonious, with pure power.

The only difference was that Gray's Leaf Whirlwind seemed to be heavier!

The tomoe in the Sharingan spun faster.

Kakashi keenly noticed that Gray's leg techniques were different from Guy's.

Might Guy's Power Cyclone, just like its name suggests, is as fierce and fast as a whirlwind.

Gray Glass's powerful whirlwind was like a heavy iron bar, swinging with all its might; if it were to hit, one would likely break bones and tendons.

Same move, completely different feeling.

Has she already developed her own unique style of martial arts at such a young age?
Kakashi sighed inwardly.

Back then, he was hailed as Konoha's number one genius when he became a Jonin at the age of twelve. Who would have thought that just a few years later he would be at the point of lamenting the talent of others.

Kakashi's feelings were hard to describe.

The same applies to Matt Kay.

Kakashi, watching from afar, knew he couldn't take the kick head-on, so how could Might Guy, facing a kick as sharp as a gray steel whip, not know?

Just now, when his right leg struck his arm, he felt as if he had kicked a weight.

Heavy and hard.

The exterior of the gray glass is soft and glutinous like a meatball, but the filling inside is a solid lump of iron.

Just a kick.

Might Guy then understood the true nature of Gray Glass.

The price was also severe; his aching shinbone and right side of his body were all numb from the recoil. Now, facing Gray Glass's powerful whirlwind counterattack...

Matt Kai was powerless to dodge.

call! !

The whip kick arrived simultaneously with the powerful wind.

The heavy thighs brought a howling wind, and the terrifying wind pressure made Matt Kai's hair stand on end.

His long-trained physical skills allowed him to accurately predict the upcoming attacks, leaving him with only one thought in his mind:
We absolutely cannot get hit!
hum!
A green light flashed.

Hui Li only felt a blur before her eyes, and even her powerful Byakugan couldn't quickly capture her movements.

The sure-hit whip kick shattered the afterimage.

far away.

Akai, whose body emitted a vibrant green life force, suddenly appeared.

He clenched his fists and crossed his arms.

The life force within his body seemed to materialize, shimmering in the sunlight with a greener light than the Palm Immortal Technique.

"The Eight Gates Formation, the third gate—the Gate of Life."

Matt Kai's voice exuded an indescribable confidence.

He certainly should be confident.

The Eight Gates Formation is a secret technique that has existed in the ninja world since ancient times.

The creator is unknown, but after the Matt family obtained it, no one was able to master even the fifth gate.

As for the Eight Gates Formation that follows, once activated, one can instantly gain power dozens of times greater than that of a Kage.

It is essentially just a legend, and the legend was fabricated relatively recently.

It wasn't until his father, Might Guy, broke through and completed the last four gates that the name of the Eight Gates was finally established and recognized by the world, shattering the Seven Ninja Swordsmen with crimson steam.

just now.

With the sudden opening of three gates, he had undoubtedly surpassed his father, the ancestors of the Might family, and even the creator of this secret technique.

"So how exactly do you open those eight gates?"

Hui Li's white eyes have been pushed to their limit.

Might Guy's chakra, meridians, blood vessels, muscles—everything within him was exposed before her eyes.

Three bright spots of light inside the body resembled stars.

Open the door, unlock the brain's limitations on the body, and you can unleash 100% of your power.

Repairing the door shields me from the fatigue and pain in my body, allowing me to fully immerse myself in the battle.

The "Gate of Life" fully stimulates vitality and improves physical fitness in a short period of time.

She had memorized the secrets of the Eight Gates perfectly, and even had the strongest master of the Eight Gates demonstrate them to her, yet she still couldn't figure out how to open those three gates.

Looking inward with a disdainful gaze.

The glowing spot on Akai's body also corresponds to certain acupoints within her body, but no matter how she tries to stimulate them with chakra, they seem unable to be opened.

How is this going?

Her body was completely controlled by the power of the Byakugan, so opening the Eight Gates should have been very easy.

"Constant training, pushing your body to its limits, will automatically open the Eight Gates," Might Guy, his blood boiling, loudly revealed the secret of the Eight Gates to Gray Glass.

This prompted Hui Li to roll her eyes.

Saying it is the same as not saying it.

Why can this open the eight gates?
Her body is structured differently from that of ordinary people.

The power of 'body control' allows her to completely block out pain and train her muscles until they stop working without any problem.

She had already secretly tried it out on the very first day she obtained the Eight Gates Formation.

It's completely useless.

That's why I had Akai accompany her for combat training this morning.

Initially, they trained in the physical techniques of Konoha Gouken.

Although the Byakugan doesn't have the same copying ability as the Sharingan, with its strong physical foundation and superhuman body control, learning the Konoha Fist, which even the idiot Might Guy can learn, is a piece of cake.

It was just a morning practice session.

He had already mastered the Leaf Cyclone, the Great Cyclone, and the Power Cyclone.

The only thing Hui Li desperately wanted to learn was the Eight Gates Formation, but she could never quite grasp it.

Akai's crude method of opening the eight gates was very unsettling for Gray, who was used to finding the principles and taking shortcuts.

As for physical exercise.

She doesn't need that kind of thing at all.

Muscle growth comes from supercompensation after high-intensity training, but with her physical control, muscle growth depends entirely on whether she wants it or not.

As long as there is a sufficient supply of chakra.

Within the limits of her bone structure, she could easily reach the strength limit for this body type in a day.

For her, exercising was the most meaningless thing in the world.

"Old Deng, you must have some hidden secrets."

Hui Li looked at A Kai with a firm tone.

She couldn't believe that someone like Matt Ke could learn a technique that she couldn't.

He must be hiding something!
