Pirate: I'm cracked, but my mutation talent is incredibly strong.

"Ora ora ora!!"

"MUDAMUDAMUDA!!"

Fourth Gear Half Land Pressure and Seven Gates Kai were engaged in a passionate brawl, with golden flames and blue steam constantly triggering massive explosions.

Vast areas of forest were destroyed, and even the ground was uprooted three layers deep.

"Uncle Mushroom! I acknowledge you as the strongest in this world!"

Lu Ya grew more and more excited as the fight progressed, his golden fiery hair billowing and steaming, and his two fiery rubber fists transformed into a sky full of fist shadows, unleashing explosive firepower.

"Young man! You are the most talented monster I have ever seen!"

"Geniuses like Kakashi and Neji pale in comparison to you!"

Might Guy's black mushroom-shaped hair shot into the sky, as if he had been possessed by a Saiyan. After releasing the forbidden gates on his body, a powerful surge of chakra continuously erupted.

His lightning-fast punches and kicks were in no way inferior to Lu Ya's rubber fists.

"Hehe, actually I'm just so-so."

"The most talented one has to be my third brother, born with Conqueror's Haki! Born with Armament Haki!"

"My older brother is amazing too! He's already awakened two soul flames!"

Lu Ya felt a little embarrassed when he heard Might Guy praise him as the most talented monster.

Even Shanks has now awakened the Soulfire talent.

Sure enough, he was the worst of the six brothers!

Lu Ya was very modest, but in reality, he really wanted to surpass his older brothers.

The main theme is "I'm not convinced!"

"You're just so-so?"

"Then what are Lee and me?! We've been looked down upon since childhood because of our lack of chakra talent!"

"Do you know how much we envy geniuses like you!"

When Matt Kai heard Lu Ya's somewhat Versailles-esque modesty, he felt a surge of anger.

I really want to beat this "humble" genius boy up.

"Hey! Kids! Are you here to destroy Konoha?"

Amidst the relentless exchange of fire, Matt Kai asked in a very serious tone.

Because Lu Ya's next answer will determine his final dance!

If not, he certainly wouldn't have risked his life like that.

After all, he didn't want to die!

He had no children yet, and had not even passed on the complete Eight Gates Formation to Li.

"Why would I destroy Konoha?"

"Originally, I just wanted to go to Konoha to find some delicious food and some strong and interesting guys to spar with."

"They were attacked by a group of masked men as soon as they reached the village entrance!"

"Are you like the Sand Village, only behaving yourselves after being brutally beaten?"

Lu Ya did not perceive the determination in Matt Kai's words.

His complaining reply instantly deflated Matt Kai's previously high spirits.

Huh? What is that?

Are these guys just here to find good food and someone to spar with?

Did it escalate into the current "village annihilation" war?

Countless civilians and genin/chunin were stunned, and a large number of jonin were seriously injured or killed...

Is the reason simply that these monsters were attacked by the root?

Danzo deserves to die!

The roots really deserve to die!

Now, Neji, Lee, and Tenten have all been captured by the Sand Village, who took advantage of the situation to launch an attack.

"Boy! Let's deliver the final blow!!"

"I can't keep going like this forever!"

Since there was absolutely no need to risk everything by opening the Death Gate, Might Guy was unwilling to open the Eighth Gate, which was a guaranteed death trap.

"good!!"

Lu Ya liked this kind of clean and efficient opponent.

"This is my strongest move after opening the seventh gate, the Gate of Shock. Be careful!"

Might Guy actually sensed that the boy wasn't a bad person, and even took the initiative to remind him.

"bring it on!"

Lu Ya shouted excitedly!

"Eight Gates Formation: Daytime Tiger!!"

The blue steam emanating from Might Guy's body gathered on his fist, condensing into a fierce tiger.

The shockwave from this attack was powerful enough to cover enemies several kilometers away!

So far, none of the enemies Might Guy has encountered on his missions have been able to withstand this attack.

With this move, he defeated many enemy Jonin and earned the fearsome reputation and title of the Blue Beast of Konoha.

"Solar Fire - Monkey God Spear!!"

Lu Ya showed no intention of dodging, and suddenly blew air into his arm, determined to confront Might Guy head-on.

A massive, black and red Armament Haki-infused rubber fist, wreathed in golden flames, slammed fiercely toward Might Guy's blue tiger.

"boom!!!"

A dazzling shockwave swept across the entire area...

···

At this moment, we are in the sacred site of Mount Myoboku.

The Great Toad Sage and the Sage of Six Paths observed the battlefield through the telescope technique of the Crystal Castle.

"Your children are all geniuses!"

"I wonder what this flaming child is referring to as 'soul fire'?"

"What are these so-called 'natural Conqueror's Haki' and 'natural Armament Haki'?"

The Sage of Six Paths desperately wanted to figure out what the power system of the other world was.

After all, you need to know yourself and your enemy in order to be prepared.

In case this divine avatar suddenly turns its back on him, he'll have a way to deal with it.

"I also want to ask, why can they transform into ninja beasts? Is it a transformation technique or some kind of beast-transformation sage technique?"

The Great Toad Sage was also subconsciously trying to find out more information.

"It's nothing, just some innate talents, similar to your bloodline limits."

Fang Huo smiled gently and answered the Six Paths Immortal's question.

Soul fire and innate Conqueror's Haki and innate Armament Haki are indeed like bloodline limits—either you're born with them or you awaken them through training.

"As for the ability to transform into beasts, that's because they ate a magical fruit."

Fang Huo shrugged and gave a brief explanation: he was already contacting the demon Merry to find out about the progress of his main body.

It turned out that the will of the world was helping the main body stabilize the dragon vein channel.

He knew he had it in the bag this time!

The Great Toad Sage and the Sage of Six Paths wanted to stall him, befriend him, and obtain more information.

Fang Huo simply wanted to wait for the arrival of the true form!

Of course, he and the demon Merry could try to suppress the Great Toad Sage and the Sage of Six Paths.

But then I thought better of it, it's not worth the time!

Fang Huo's clone has not yet sensed where the Pure Land is.

That is the lair of the Sage of Six Paths, where the souls of powerful figures from past generations are stored.

The Pure Land is probably a special space created by the Sage of Six Paths using the Rinnegan, much like the Kamui dimension that comes with the Kamui Sharingan.

It is difficult for outsiders to enter.

Fang Huo's clone didn't want to make a move now, in case the Six Paths Immortal escaped, he wouldn't be able to find him.

We should wait for the main body to arrive so that we can be more confident in finding the Sage of Six Paths' Pure Land lair in one go.

Fang Huo's ambiguous words were essentially meaningless.

Those kids were more straightforward; they answered every question directly.

If Fang Huo hadn't come knocking on the spring, the Great Toad Sage would have already gotten all the information about those divine children through Jiraiya.

The scene returns to the battlefield outside Konoha Village.

Lu Ya and Might Guy were both blasted away, their bodies carving a furrow in the ground and piling up a mud mountain.

"Woo-ha~"

Might Guy coughed up a mouthful of blood, the blue steam around his body dissipated, and his aura weakened considerably.

"It hurts! It hurts so much!!"

Lu Ya quickly got up, jumping around and yelling as he covered his smoking, swollen fist.

This was the first time he had experienced such pain since he obtained the power of the Sun God Nika Fruit!

The pain was so intense it felt like his very soul was leaving his body!

This isn't describing pain; it's as if a soul truly emerged.

A white soul fire spun wildly above Lu Ya's head, even mimicking his appearance, spinning in pain...
