Ninja World: I'm really a support-type ninja

Might Guy, who was desperately trying to withstand Hatake Akira's attack, was sent flying by the powerful force of Hatake Akira's passive attack. He spun twice on the ground before landing, and his legs plowed two furrows more than four meters long in the ground.

Although Might Guy's physical condition allowed him to tough it out, he was definitely not in a good mood.

"As expected of my lifelong rival!" Might Guy wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with indomitable fighting spirit. "It seems this is a powerful new move you've developed, so I can no longer hold back!"

Hearing Might Guy's shouts and watching his fist getting closer and closer to his cheek, Akira Hatake was filled with mixed emotions.

The time has come to test his results!

Bang.

With a soft thud, Might Guy's straight punch struck a wooden stake, which made Kakashi, who was watching from behind, light up. Hatake Akira had finally mastered the Substitution Jutsu, one of the Three Body Techniques.

Unlike Kakashi Hatake's relief, Akira Hatake, who was temporarily free, broke out in a cold sweat.

If he had been any slower, or if he had made even the slightest mistake during the spell, he would have been disfigured!

"A substitution technique?" McKay smiled confidently. "I knew you'd use that. Well then! You're definitely behind me!"

With a sudden twist and side kick, Matt Kai's smile froze; he had missed...

Then, a purplish-red chakra chain was tied around Might Guy's waist, while Hatake Akira had already scrambled up a large tree.

"What is this!"

Might Guy, who should have been poised to finish his move, suddenly went limp, feeling as if one-fifth of his power had been drained from his body. Even his reaction speed and control over his body had decreased significantly.

Pfft!

The momentum from the twisting side kick caught Might Guy off guard, who was bound by offensive purplish-red chakra chains, causing him to lose his balance and fall to the ground.

"Kakashi... this is one of your trump cards, isn't it!" Might Guy swayed as he stood up, his smile unchanged. "I never thought I'd be able to push you to this point. This is the power of youth!!!"

With a high-spirited, somewhat childish shout, Might Guy quickly adapted to the fact that his attributes had been reduced by at least 20%, and even more so, he endured the constant damage from the purplish-red chakra chains, charging forward once again.

"Damn it!" Akira Hatake cursed inwardly, "How come the speed is even faster than before?!"

Might Guy was just testing him; he wouldn't have used his full strength. If he had gone all out, Kakashi would have suffered a significant loss.

Even with his physical attributes reduced by the attack form of the purplish-red chakra chains, Might Guy's speed is still far superior to that of Hatake Akira.

Seeing that there was no time to form hand seals or dodge, Hatake Akira simply chose to use the second skill of the Ming Shi Yin hero template: "Shi Gua - Flying Wings".

The purplish-red chakra chain instantly changed color, with a beautiful and rich golden yellow becoming the main color of the chakra chain.

"Hmm? The weakness in my body is gone!"

Might Guy was initially delighted, but then he recklessly unleashed a barrage of punches and kicks on Hatake Akira.

Akira Hatake, on the other hand, was in a flustered and clumsy defense. Although he was very panicked at first, after enduring a few attacks, he laughed, a very happy laugh.

Chapter 20 Might Guy's eyes changed.

The golden chakra chain has two functions.

First, it reduces the enemy's defense; second, it increases Akira Hatake's various defensive attributes by a percentage.

Because it's real life and not a game, the three skills of the Ming Shi Yin hero template have been changed to varying degrees.

In the game, defensive attributes are defined quite simply as "physical resistance" and "magic resistance".

In reality, unless you use equipment purchased from the equipment store to improve your defensive attributes, both "physical resistance" and "magic resistance" require the body as a carrier.

In other words, the increase in defense that the golden chakra chain brought to Akira Hatake mainly manifested as an improvement in his physical attributes related to defense.

For example, vitality, recovery speed, bone strength, muscle strength, skin strength, and so on...

Therefore, the boost that the golden chakra chain gave to Akira Hatake was not necessarily smaller than that of the purplish-red chakra chain.

The specific percentage increase in Akira Hatake's physical attributes was determined based on the strength of the physical attributes of the individuals connected by the golden chakra chains.

More importantly, once connected by the golden chakra chain, the enemy's physical attributes, particularly defensive ones, will be weakened. And no matter how much they are weakened, the exact amount of the weakening will be added to Akira Hatake.

In other words, the stronger the enemy that Akira Hatake faces, the stronger the buff he receives.

Might Guy's physical abilities are undoubtedly among the best of his class.

Now, not only has his body suffered a 25% reduction in defensive attributes, but Hatake Akira has also received a 25% increase in defensive attributes based on Might Guy's body.

With this decrease and increase, what Hatake Akira gained was not just a simple 25%, but rather, under relatively certain circumstances, he temporarily obtained physical defense attributes equal to, or even slightly better than, Might Guy.

If Might Guy were to rely solely on physical combat techniques, Akira Hatake would already be in an invincible position.

“Is this a genius…?”

Might Guy grew increasingly alarmed as the fight progressed. "Although I don't know why the weakness in my body disappeared, and the damage from all directions also vanished, even so, my proud taijutsu was completely blocked by Kakashi!"

Might Guy still couldn't recognize his opponent as Akira Hatake, but that didn't matter much.

I remember in their many serious duels before, Kakashi Hatake never won against Might Guy through taijutsu. Instead, he used ninjutsu, taijutsu, and tactics in turn to steadily gain the upper hand over Might Guy.

"It seems that Kakashi must have been training a lot during this period, otherwise how could his physical fitness, which is weaker than mine, be on par with mine or even slightly better?"

As he thought about it, Matt Kai suddenly burst into tears again, and his fighting spirit soared once more.

"The power of youth is truly boundless! It seems you've come to understand the meaning of youth recently, so I can't let you down!"

A loud roar made the increasingly confident Akira Hatake shudder, thinking that Might Guy was about to unleash a powerful attack.

But after waiting and waiting, Might Guy still hadn't opened the Eight Gates. Then he remembered that Guy was still in his developmental stage and was still a long way from opening the Eight Gates.

Although Might Guy is currently unable to open the Eight Gates, his powerful and sweeping Konoha Steel Body Techniques are getting faster and faster, and his punches are getting heavier and heavier.

The muffled thuds continued, and the intense, visceral fight made Kakashi Hatake, who was leaning against a large tree, tilt his head.

"My brother's physical abilities are actually on par with Might Guy's. Is it because of that golden chain?" Kakashi suddenly felt a pang of regret. "It seems that my brother's golden chakra chain is far more complex than I initially thought... I shouldn't have said those things in the first place..."

Unlike the regretful Kakashi Hatake, Might Guy, who was now in a berserk attack mode, had already sensed that something was wrong.

"How could a fist wrapped in bandages actually cause me pain?"

Might Guy punched Hatake Akira hard, knocking him back, and then jumped away from the fighting circle in two or three leaps, temporarily distancing himself from Hatake Akira.

"Although my strength is still the same as before, my muscle strength and bone strength have decreased by at least 20%. Is it because of this golden chakra chain?"

Might Guy isn't brainless; he just has a long thought process. Moreover, he knows he can't compare to Kakashi in ninjutsu, so he chooses to temporarily ignore the chakra chain and adopt a strategy of exchanging injuries for injuries by launching a fierce taijutsu attack.

However, it is clear that Might Guy's plan has been completely thwarted.

Although he was delayed for a while, Might Guy, who was now taking things seriously, focused his attention on the golden chakra chains that were integrated into his flesh and blood.

"Untouchable, unbreakable... Could it be related to the distance?!"

Having reached a conclusion, Might Guy retreated rapidly once again, while Akira Hatake naturally couldn't just sit and wait to die.

He swung his hand again at Might Guy, who was flying backward, and unleashed a passive attack with power comparable to a C-rank ninjutsu.

"Oh no! It's that same trick again!"

Might Guy shuddered. He had suffered a setback from this very move at the very beginning of the duel, and now alarm bells were ringing in his mind.

Dodging left and right, weaving like a snake, searching for cover...

Might Guy tried every possible way to dodge, but without fully mastering the Stand Technique, he couldn't escape the locked attack.

"We have no choice but to tough it out!"

Might Guy got into a fighting stance, crossed his arms in front of his chest, and prepared to receive the attack again.

"Kakashi!"

After Akira Hatake unleashed his passive attack, he regretted it...

Might Guy is still bound by golden chakra chains, and his body's defensive attributes are still weakening.

Might Guy had already barely managed to hold on before, but to continue in this state would be tantamount to suicide.

However, Akira Hatake's passive attack is a lock-on attack, which cannot be dodged except in two specific situations, and he himself cannot retract it.

There's no turning back now that the arrow has been released; there's only one way to rescue Might Guy!

"Huh? Kakashi?"

Might Guy, who had assumed a defensive stance, looked at the figure rushing towards him with dead fish eyes and had already figured out the situation.

He mistook Akira Hatake for the Kakashi Hatake brothers!

Before he could even form any further thoughts, Akira Hatake's passive attack had already struck him.

"Why does it feel so much less powerful this time compared to before..."

Matt Kai pulled his arms back from his chest, looked at the ditch less than two meters long at his feet, and scratched his head, somewhat confused about the situation.

"call……"

Seeing that Might Guy was alright, Akira Hatake breathed a sigh of relief. If he had reacted any slower, Might Guy would have been crippled if not killed!

However, Akira Hatake soon had a headache.

The form switching between the attack form and the support form of the first skill is not very flexible due to the hero template of Ming Shi Yin.

The judgment of whether someone is friend or foe is basically based on three factors: camp, malice, and competition.

This is also why Akira Hatake had Minato Namikaze unleash his killing intent on him in order to change the form of his first skill.

Just now, it was only through Kakashi's intervention that the match between Hatake Akira and Might Guy was stopped, allowing Hatake Akira to switch his first skill from attack mode to support mode in time.

But here's the problem: when Might Guy realized the blunder he'd made, he wasn't embarrassed at all; in fact, the way he looked at Akira Hatake changed...

Chapter 21: One Force Overcomes Ten Techniques.

"Ming, did you create that ninjutsu just now?"

"Ming, why did my body's defensive attributes increase so much after it was bound by chakra chains?"

"Ming, what are your thoughts on youth?"

“Ming, if you use the chakra chain you just used to bind me again, I should be able to break through my limit once more.”

"bright……"

"enough!"

Might Guy's incessant and annoying chatter was stopped, and Akira Hatake turned to Kakashi Hatake for help.
