"Sandaime-sama."
After arriving at the training ground, Mu Yue and Might Dai greeted Sarutobi Hiruzen who was looking at the scenery.
Sarutobi Hiruzen turned around and saw the two men with smiles on their faces and said:
"Dai, I vaguely remember that you were the most diligent person in practicing the Eight Gates Ninjutsu. It seems that your efforts have finally paid off."
As Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke, he stroked his moustache with a kind smile on his face, like an ordinary old man who was happy that the hard work of his younger generation had paid off.
"Sandaime-sama, I didn't expect you still remember me." Might Guy didn't expect that Sarutobi Hiruzen still had memories of that period. He thought that Sarutobi Hiruzen only had memories of him as a ten thousand year old Genin.
"Haha, although I wasn't Hokage at that time, I was already trying hard to learn from teacher Tobirama. How could I forget such a special person like Dai Ni?" Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a smile.
He didn't say this just to curry favor with others. He did remember Mighty Dai. After all, his appearance and behavior were somewhat different from those of ordinary people.
"Hahaha, thank you for your support!" Might Dai gave a thumbs up and laughed, revealing his two rows of white teeth.
Mu Yue couldn't help but sigh that having a high status did have many benefits. Sarutobi Hiruzen's identity meant that it was easy for him to gain favorability. Apart from time travelers like him, few people in Konoha Village could resist the Hokage's active approach.
"I've long heard about the power of the Eight Gates from Tobirama-sensei, but unfortunately I've never had the chance to see it with my own eyes. I wonder if wearing you today can satisfy my regret."
After habitually pulling up some favorability points, Sarutobi Hiruzen started talking about business.
"Since it is Hokage-sama's regret, there is no reason to refuse. Jingmen, open!"
Might Dai clenched his fists, his chakra exploded, and with a roar he opened the sixth gate directly, his whole body was enveloped in green energy.
The Eight Gates are supposed to be opened one by one. You have to open the front gate before you can open the back gate. But if you have mastered the Eight Gates to a certain level, you can skip the front gate and open the back gate directly. Might Dai's current limit is to skip the first five gates and open the sixth gate directly.
Whoosh!
Might Dai's powerful chakra instantly exploded, causing air currents to bend the surrounding green grass and blow Sarutobi Hiruzen's black and gray hair.
"Is this the sixth gate of the Eight Gates?" Feeling the power erupting from Might Guy, Sarutobi Hiruzen showed an interested look.
Although there is no special eye that can directly see through the door opened by Might Dai's body, based on the relevant description of the Eight Gates, he can judge that Might Dai is currently in the state of six gates.
When using the first five gates of the Eight Gates, there will be no special changes on the outside of the body. Starting from the sixth gate, there will be changes in each gate. When using the sixth gate, the whole body will be filled with green energy, the seventh gate will have blue steam, and after opening the Death Gate, there will be bloody red steam.
"Attack me, don't hold back." Sarutobi Hiruzen said.
If you want to test your strength, the best way is to fight.
Although it was just a shadow clone, Sarutobi Hiruzen gave a lot of chakra, about 30% of the chakra.
A hint of excitement flashed in Might Dai's eyes. Ever since he had mastered the Eight Gates, he had only fought with Mu Yue. He didn't expect that he would be able to fight with the Third Hokage so soon.
As Sarutobi Hiruzen wished, Might Dai did not hold back and used the power of the Six Gates to the maximum to attack Sarutobi Hiruzen.
With a whoosh, Might Dai disappeared from the spot in an instant and kicked towards Sarutobi Hiruzen.
The expression on Sarutobi Hiruzen's face remained calm and there was no trace of panic. Just when Might Guy's leg was about to kick Sarutobi Hiruzen, Sarutobi Hiruzen's figure disappeared, causing Might Guy's attack to fail.
"The speed is indeed good, surpassing many jonin." Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded secretly in his heart as he left using the instant body jutsu.
Although his attack missed, Might Dai did not get discouraged. After all, he was the Third Hokage. He quickly locked onto Sarutobi Hiruzen's position and continued to run towards him.
This time Might Dai used his fist. With the powerful force of his fist, just a swing of his fist was enough to cause a shock wave in the air and rush towards Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"Earth Style: Earth Flow Wall!" Sarutobi Hiruzen quickly formed seals and spit out a large amount of soil to form a hard rock wall.
Boom!
Might Dai's fist hit the solid rock wall hard, causing it to shake and crack slightly.
Mu Yue was not surprised when watching this scene. The strength of ninjutsu depends on the user. If it was the Earth Flow Wall of eight-year-old Kakashi, Six-Gate Might Dai could break it with one punch. But this was Sarutobi Hiruzen's Earth Flow Wall, and the cracks appeared because Sarutobi Hiruzen was not serious.
"The strength is not bad either." Sarutobi Hiruzen continued to comment as he looked at Might Dai's performance.
Then Sarutobi Hiruzen took the initiative to attack, using the body-flickering technique to stand on the earth wall at an extremely fast speed, and then quickly formed hand seals and spit out a hurricane.
Facing a strong man like the Third Hokage, Might Guy did not dare to slack off for a moment. When he saw that Sarutobi Hiruzen was about to attack, he immediately dodged away.
Then Sarutobi Hiruzen used various advanced ninjutsu of different attributes as if to show off his skills, making the place where the two were fighting become very messy.
After fighting for about seven minutes, Sarutobi Hiruzen took the initiative and said, "Let's stop here."
Then Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled and stroked his beard and said: "The Eight Gates Ninjutsu is indeed powerful. Only six gates are enough to defeat many jonin."
Sarutobi Hiruzen knew that the real power of the Eight Gates lay in the Seven Gates and the Eight Gates, but both came at a great cost. Opening the Seven Gates would definitely injure him, to the point where it would hurt even if he touched it with his hand, and opening the Eight Gates would only lead to death.
However, he could roughly infer the strength of Might Guy Eight based on the strength of Might Guy Six.
"If the eighth gate is opened, maybe I can have the same power as me in a short period of time." Sarutobi Hiruzen thought.
Of course, it's not the shadow clone, but his original self in his prime.
Sarutobi Hiruzen finally understood how Tobirama Senju felt when he wanted to destroy the Eight Gates Ninjutsu team.
If this really succeeds, then Konoha will have an extra trump card with great deterrent power in the war, and can directly carry out a decapitation operation on the enemy leader. There is no need to send many troops, just two Eight Gates Ninja and a few Jonins will be enough.
At this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen also wanted to train Eight Gates Ninja, but the war was still going on and the timing was a bit inappropriate. No matter what you do during war, you need to be cautious.
"Dai, originally your achievements were not enough to be promoted to Chunin, but since you are the first person in Konoha to successfully practice the Eight Gates, and fulfilled the last wish of teacher Tobirama, I specially promoted you to Chunin." Sarutobi Hiru said with a serious face.
"Thank you, Sandaime-sama!" Might Dai clenched his right fist, feeling very excited.
He was very grateful to Mu Yue, grateful that Mu Yue was willing to help him create such an opportunity. He was also grateful to Sarutobi Hiruzen for promoting him.
But Might Dai felt that the person he needed to be most grateful to was himself, the self who was not shaken by the rumors of others, the self who practiced physical skills day in and day out for ten years, and the self who believed that hard work would eventually pay off.
"This is what you deserve." Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a smile.
It can only be said that fortune and misfortune go hand in hand. If it weren't for his continuous practice of the Eight Gates, Might Tail wouldn't have become a perennial Genin that everyone despised. But without practicing the Eight Gates, Might Tail might not have become a very strong ninja, nor would he have been promoted to a Chunin like he is now.
"I'll take you to the Hokage building to get a set of Chunin uniforms and a promotion form." Sarutobi Hiruzen said as he made a hand seal to cancel the shadow clone and let the memories flow back to the main body.
The difference between Konoha's Genin and Chunin is that Genin only has a forehead protector, while Chunin will be given a green ninja vest.
"Congratulations, Senior Dai." Mu Yue congratulated with a smile.
"Thanks to your help, Mu Yue!" Might Dai gave Mu Yue a thumbs up and said with gratitude.
At this time, Might Guy really wanted to take the uniform and the form to become a Chunin back to show Might Guy, so that Might Guy could know the good news.
So the two of them quickly rushed to the Hokage Building.
Sarutobi Hiruzen acted quickly. After they arrived at the Hokage Building, they received the two-piece set of Chunin, vest and promotion form without waiting.
The standard vest of the Chunin was sealed in plastic. Might Guy thought about it and tore it open and put on the green vest directly, so that Might Guy would find it when he returned.
However, when Matt Dai was wearing a vest and picking up the form to go home, he was stopped by Mu Yue.
"Senior Dai, excuse me for asking, today is Akai's birthday, what gift have you prepared for Akai?" Mu Yue stopped Matt Dai and asked.
Matt Dai pulled out a green bodysuit of the same style as the one he was wearing from somewhere, laughed and gave a thumbs up, saying,
"Of course it's an affordable and useful bodysuit!"
Mu Yue finally understood why Might Guy gave Shisui a tights on his birthday.
"Senior Dai, I have a suggestion. For example, we can write down some experience in physical training and give it to Akai. This way, even when he is on a mission, he can practice according to the experience above." Mu Yue raised his glasses and suggested with a smile.
There is a huge gap between the mastery level and the perfection level, and he was worried that he would be a little short of the perfect level skills by then, so he thought of co-creating it and giving it to Might Guy.
"Mu Yue, you are really thoughtful. Let's do as you say." Matt Dai nodded heavily. This is indeed better than giving a tights as a gift.
…
Night, Might Guy's house.
At this time, Mu Yue's disciples had basically arrived, and Obito, Nohara Rin, Shisui, and Kakashi had all arrived at Might Guy's house.
"Hey, where is Teacher Mu Yue? Why hasn't she come yet? It's already past seven o'clock." Obito looked at the time and scratched his head, somewhat confused.
"Teacher Mu Yue must have his reasons for not coming." Shisui said with a thoughtful look.
Kakashi glanced at Shisui. Shisui was the only person he was not familiar with, but he remembered that Shisui and Might Guy had run together before, so Shisui must be Might Guy's friend in the Ninja School.
"Could it be that he also met an old lady who got lost?" Obito speculated based on his own experience.
"That shouldn't be the case. Even if we encounter five old ladies, Teacher Mu Yue can use her shadow clone to help and then come back with her real body." Nohara Lin believed that Mu Yue would not be late because of this.
"Maybe he went to do something with my dad." Might Guy recalled what Might Day said yesterday.
Might Dai didn't show up either. He felt that the two of them should be together, but he didn't know what that cool and youthful thing was.
"I'm back!"
Mighty Dai's powerful voice reached everyone's ears.
