My mind was foggy, and I could feel my life energy rapidly draining away, while my eyelids grew heavier and heavier.

"Ming will save me, won't she..."

With a final thought flashing through his mind, Matt Kai, his body charred and his fate unknown, plummeted from the sky and crashed into a sandpit.

It might have been a moment, or it might have been a long time, but when Matt Kai opened his eyes again, he felt better than ever before.

I always felt that the world in front of me was very fragile, and that he could shatter space with just one punch.

Feeling it was an illusion, Might Guy shook his head, sat up straight, and threw a punch forward without warning.

Boom!

A burst of air suddenly accelerated, breaking the sound barrier, breaking the heat barrier, and surpassing the darkness barrier.

I never imagined that a wisp of air could have such power. After breaking through three barriers, the wisp of air continued its momentum, pushing the limits it could reach.

Click!

A rosy glow on the distant horizon suddenly shattered, not because the sun was destroyed, but because a spatial barrier in the distance was breached, and the fragmented space reflected the scene.

"Is it so strong?"

Matt Kai hadn't yet realized what was happening; he thought this was what would happen after he died.

"My youth is already over, why is the Eight Gates Formation still open...?"

Might Guy lay back down in the sandpit and saw Akira Hatake smiling at him.

"bright?"

"you also……"

"I'm really impressed, how come your IQ keeps fluctuating so much!"

Akira Hatake slapped his forehead, utterly speechless at Might Guy's performance.

What incredibly thick nerves one must have to blur the line between life and death so much, and to be unable to distinguish between reality and illusion.

"bright!"

Matt Kai sat up from the sandpit for the second time, but because he exerted too much force, the air in front of him surged forward again, exploding in the distant sky three seconds later.

"Your understanding is... that I not only didn't die, but my strength has also greatly increased?!"

"Isn't it obvious? Why even ask?"

Akira Hatake shook his head with a wry smile, "Fortunately, you haven't let me down. You can now open the Eight Gates Formation regularly."

"A routine activation... the Eight Gates Formation?"

Faced with Akira Hatake's answer, Might Guy's muscular mind went blank for a moment.

If he were to routinely activate the Eight Gates Formation, where would he find the necessary life energy to sustain the immense demands of the formation?

"You must be kidding!"

Matt Kai still didn't believe it, and quickly tried to close the dead gate located in the middle of the heart.

After trying for a long time, the Death Gate acupoint remained open, constantly providing Might Guy with an enormous amount of chakra.

"Alright, no need to check anymore. The reason why the Eight Gates technique has flaws is that the human body simply cannot meet the life energy consumption required when all eight gates are opened."

"There's another point: even if the human body can meet the enormous life energy supply required when all eight gates are fully open, the body's weak physiological structure cannot withstand the enormous power that suddenly erupts when all eight gates are fully open."

"However, these two fundamental shortcomings are not without solutions, and I happen to be one of the people who can solve these two shortcomings for you."

Akira Hatake sensed a group of people rushing towards the center of the battlefield. It would take them at least fifteen minutes to get here.

There was still time to explain, so Akira Hatake naturally had to clear up Might Guy's doubts.

If it's not explained clearly, and it's just Matt Kai thinking about it all by himself, who knows how long it will take.

Moreover, without figuring out the reason, Might Guy will not be able to fully control his sudden surge in power, which will greatly affect his return to a normal life in the future.

"First of all, I used the immense life energy of the Six Paths level to directly transform your body. The life energy that was spent was..."

"About twenty Hashirama Senju."

"Twenty? Hashirama Senju?"

Matt Kai was shocked and couldn't help but blurt out, "Just how much life energy does a Six Paths level cultivator possess?"

"This... is roughly equivalent to two complete Nine-Tails, and then roughly equivalent to forty Hashirama Senju."

"This...you continue."

Might Guy was dumbfounded. He opened his mouth as if to ask a question, but then changed his mind and waved his hand to signal Akira Hatake to continue.

"Anyway, the life energy used to transform your body is half of that at the Six Paths level. In other words, your current life constitution is comparable to that of an Asura, or even slightly higher."

"You now have a physique comparable to that of a primordial immortal, and then I replenished your body with a mouthful of life energy at the sixth level."

"One plus one is greater than two. In terms of physical constitution and life energy alone, you have already crossed the threshold of the sixth level."

"You've crossed... the threshold of the Six Paths level?"

Might Guy stammered, pointing incredulously at himself, "You're not kidding, are you, Ming..."

"Six Paths level... So, according to you, I'm already on par with the Sage of Six Paths?"

"Comparable to the Sage of Six Paths?"

Akira Hatake curled his lip. "If it's just a matter of strength, you should be able to go toe-to-toe with Rokudo, but if we consider all factors, you're just enough to get Rokudo to finish warming up."

"To put it bluntly, your current state is an incomplete Six Paths level state."

"In other words, you have only reached the sixth level in terms of physique and life energy, and you are still far from the true sixth level."

"I won't go into the specifics of what you're lacking, because you wouldn't understand anyway. Just understand that your current state is what I've achieved by forcing you to grow faster."

"Trying to help seedlings grow faster?"

Matt Kay seized on the key phrase: "You mean my foundation isn't solid?"

"Yes, the biggest difference between you and the Six Paths level is in your control of power."

Akira Hatake glanced at Might Guy with great surprise, then continued to patiently explain to him.

"At the Six Paths level, one can control their power at will, from something that doesn't affect daily life to something that can destroy a world with a mere gesture."

"But right now, you can't control the explosive power in your body. If you move even slightly, it will result in a destructive scene like after a major battle."

"This is just like your previous move, Night Guy. It doesn't use any skill in applying power; it's just mindless brute force."

Might Guy was somewhat displeased when he heard Akira Hatake's evaluation of his ultimate move, "Night Guy".

"My Nightbringer is very strong, I know that very well, it's not as bad as you say!"

"I took a kick from your Night Might, don't I have the right to speak?"

Akira Hatake rolled his eyes, then gave an example, "Yorukai's strength lies in its power; it can shake space, which is an undeniable fact."

"But think about it with your brain. What would happen if you could gather the power that Night Kai's attack is releasing and concentrate it into one point?"

Akira Hatake clenched his fist and waved it in front of Might Guy. "This is like hitting someone with your palm versus hitting someone with your fist. The former can seriously injure, but the latter can kill in one blow!"

"I don't need to go into detail about which is better or worse, do I?"

Looking at Might Guy, who seemed to have figured it out, Akira Hatake revealed all of Might Guy's existing shortcomings as if pouring beans from a bamboo tube.

"First of all, you are currently very strong, but also very weak, because you only know how to use the power of the Six Paths level in a crude way, without mastering the skills to use the power of the Six Paths level."

"Secondly, your control over power is not yet refined enough to adapt to the surge in power within your body, which will have some irreversible consequences for those around you."

"Finally, the hairstyle is nice."

"what?!"

Might Guy was really looking forward to listening to Akira Hatake analyze his current strengths and weaknesses, but instead he just commented that his hairstyle was nice...

Subconsciously reaching out to touch his hair, Matt Kai realized that his beloved watermelon head hairstyle was gone.

"My hair..."

"A hairstyle that soars to the sky, fiery red hair, and muscles as solid as a rock, with lava-like blood flowing through them."

Akira Hatake patted Might Guy's muscular shoulder with a smile, "From now on, you can call him Konoha's Taijutsu Emperor Might Guy, instead of Konoha's Blue Beast."

I?

The King of Taijutsu in Konoha?

"Stop staring blankly, Kai-kun," Akira Hatake teased. "I'm talking about you, Kai-kun!"

"Me, Emperor Kai?"

Matt Kai pointed to himself, and after a brief moment of surprise, his two front teeth suddenly appeared.

He smiled broadly and gave Akira Hatake a thumbs-up, saying, "Akira, I really like that nickname!"

"Then from now on, I will be Konoha's! Emperor of Taijutsu! Might Guy!"

With a voice as loud as a bell, Matt Kai shouted, and the sound waves rippled outwards.

However, because Might Guy was unable to control his current power, the sound waves caused a gale-force wind to blow through the area, ravaging the already desolate environment once again.

"OK OK."

Akira Hatake patted Might Guy's outstretched right hand. "Before you have complete control over your power, try not to make any large movements, otherwise I'm worried you might accidentally hurt someone."

"Oh."

Matt Kai nodded cautiously, his movements noticeably smaller.

"Alright Kai, the timing is just right, the onlookers are coming."

Akira Hatake looked into the distance and saw a squad of about twenty ninjas on the horizon, who were now in formation and rushing towards him and Might Guy.

"You mean...them?"

"Correct."

Akira Hatake nodded. "And I didn't expect that it would be Kazekage Rasa leading the team himself."

"Then what do we do?"

Might Guy assumed a fighting stance. "Fight, or retreat?"
