"The man known as the God of Shinobi in the ninja world, the First Hokage of Konoha, Hashirama Senju!"

The eight-tailed Gyūki sensed someone's arrival, and its voice disappeared from Killer Bee's mind.

"Shh..."

Two figures landed in front of Killer Bee. The Fourth Raikage looked at him, who was covered in dirt, and asked, "You still couldn't win even after using the power of the Eight-Tails, Bee?"

Killer Bee shook his head: "It was just a friendly spar. The tailed beasts can't unleash their full power. I didn't lose, but I didn't win either."

After a moment of thought, Mabui, standing behind the Fourth Raikage, said, "Master Bee is a perfect Jinchuriki, but the power of a Tailed Beast is not as effective in one-on-one battles as it is on the battlefield."

Killer Bee stood up indifferently, preparing to leave. As he passed the Fourth Raikage, he said, "Although I know you're wrong, I still support your decision, brother."

As soon as he finished speaking, Killer Bee left Thundercloud Gorge.

At that moment, a figure appeared and reported directly to the Fourth Raikage: "The ninjas of Konoha have submitted an application to leave the village and return to Konoha."

After a moment's thought, Raikage replied, "Let them go. Tell them that the envoy from Kumogakure will depart for Konoha in a month."

"Yes!"

……

In front of the gate of Yunyin.

Kakashi looked at the cloud with a tattered sleeve and asked, "You fought that Eight-Tails Jinchuriki?"

Yun nodded and replied, "There was no win or loss. It was just a friendly spar. He had a powerful Tailed Beast Ball but it was useless, and I had Susanoo but it was useless."

Kakashi paused for a moment, then asked, "And your eyes..."

Yun smiled and replied, "It's not that serious. I've rarely used the power of the Mangekyou Sharingan during the past six months in the Anbu. The genjutsu of the three tomoe combined with the Body Flicker Technique is enough."

As she spoke, Yun looked at Kai, who was still waving goodbye to Yunyin with some reluctance, and asked after thinking for a moment, "Kai, can you teach me the Eight Gates?"

These words made Might Guy, who was waving, freeze for a moment, lower his hand in farewell, and his back trembled slightly as he faced the clouds.

Yun scratched his head awkwardly: "It's okay if it doesn't work, sorry for being rude."

"Do not!!"

Kai turned around in an instant, tears welling in his eyes, his gaze towards Yun filled with intense emotion.

"Finally! Finally, the Uchiha genius has recognized me. This is the greatest affirmation of my youth!"

"Don't worry, Yun, I will do my best to teach you, for the sake of our youth!"

Uh……

Yun thought for a moment, then followed his example and gave a thumbs up: "For youth?"

At this moment, Kakashi's gaze was somewhat solemn.

……

Chapter 83: The Time Has Come

Konoha Gate.

The three-person team, who had been away from the village for nearly a month, has finally returned.

The three then went to the Hokage Building to hand over the work. After Kakashi gave a detailed report, Yun and Guy left.

Minato put away the scroll, looked at Kakashi and said with a smile, "It seems that Kumogakure, like Konoha, hopes that peace can continue. I have been preparing to use the Flying Thunder God Technique to support you at any time."

"After all, they have a precedent for this..."

Kakashi hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Teacher, was it confirmed that Kumogakure stole Kirigakure's secret technique first at Green Gorge?"

Minato paused for a moment, then asked, "Did Yun tell you this? A large part of that information was actually Yun's speculation. After all, although a number of people in Kirigakure did die in the end, this was a conflict between the three villages of Iwagakure, Kirigakure, and Kumogakure, so there wasn't much information about Konoha."

Is that so?

Kakashi pondered for a moment, "The envoy from Kumogakure will arrive in Konoha in a month."

If the Hokage were to assign people to monitor the people of Kumogakure, and the activity became too conspicuous... it could backfire if they were discovered.

If the information about Green Gorge is just Yun's guess, then Yunyin probably won't do anything.

Kakashi then shared his speculations about Kumo's trip to Kumogakure.

So, Minato frowned and hesitated.

After a moment, Minato said, "I will receive a message after the envoy from Kumogakure departs. Kakashi, you will then be in charge of secretly monitoring the Kumogakure group."

Kakashi nodded; as expected, the teacher's arrangement was exactly what he had anticipated.

……

In the forest behind Konoha.

Uchiha Un and Might Guy sat facing each other.

"Cloud, although your strength and speed are very fast, they are all based on chakra."

Kai stood up and pointed to his head: "Everyone has eight gates, and you, who have reached this level, should know very well where the chakra channels are."

"There are no shortcuts in the training of the Eight Gates, so let's begin our youthful training together!"

Well?!

Is that so?

Yun was stunned for a moment, then thought of the new secret scroll she had just obtained.

Alright! I still need to practice...

"Yun needs to wear this before training!"

Kai easily lifted a series of leg wraps with one hand, and the weighted root marks on them made Yun's eyes twitch.

After Yun finished binding his legs, he asked, "Do you need to suppress your chakra?"

Kai nodded: "The excessive physical training is to enable the body to withstand the opening of the Eight Gates. Yun's body has a strong self-healing ability, but it still needs willpower training."

As he spoke, Akai said with a hint of malice, "With Yun's physical abilities, I believe he will be able to open the Gate of Extinction soon, but that youthful feeling is quite intense!"

What is it like to be young?

Before Yun could react, Akai raised his hand and said, "First goal! Run 100 laps around Konoha. Whoever finishes last is a dog!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Akai ran off in a flash.

Only Yun was left somewhat bewildered; these eight gates... seemed different from those in the novels he remembered...

Can't you just activate it by directly unleashing your full potential?

Forget it, let's run!

……

Under the cover of night, a pool of sweat had accumulated at Yun's feet, who was exhausted.

This kind of physical training is definitely not something ordinary people can endure; it's simply outrageous!

"Alright! Eight thousand push-ups to finish, then we'll end today's training!"

"Huh?! There are still eight thousand?!"

"Yun, the journey of youth is one we cannot afford to waste. Let's begin!!!"

……

"Alright! Eight thousand push-ups done. Now, three thousand squats to finish!"

"I……"

"boom!"

The cloud, who had collapsed and was no longer able to move, was still excited by the thought of the once-a-day evening spectacle of the evening elephant.

Yun, who had gotten back up, looked at Akai and smiled: "Then let's begin!"

Matt Kai paused for a moment, then grinned, revealing his teeth: "Begin!"

……

under night.

Guy, who had just sent Yun back to the Uchiha clan's territory, ran into Kakashi as soon as he stepped outside.

After the two left the Uchiha clan compound, Kakashi asked, "Did you teach him that forbidden technique?"

Ah Kai smiled and replied, "Today is only the first day. Not everyone can learn the Eight Gates Formation without my approval."

Kakashi nodded: "Given Kumo's habit of skipping class with shadow clones every day at the Ninja Academy, he'll probably give up soon, right?"

Guy shook his head seriously: "No, his performance today surprised me. Even you, Kakashi, who is equally talented, only trained to the point of being able to withstand the Gate of Death before giving up."

"But today, Yun gave me the feeling that he wanted to reach the point where he could open all eight gates."

Kakashi was stunned for a moment: "Eight Gates? The opening of the Gate of Death is the final bloom. With the power of the Mangekyou Sharingan, I really don't understand the point of him learning the Eight Gates."

Akai replied with a smile, "Only those who can endure the pain of excessive training year after year and hone their willpower far beyond that of ordinary people can withstand the pain of opening the Eight Gates!"

"His physique is very special, so special that it is very suitable for this secret technique. But willpower is not related to physique! If he can persevere, it is not impossible for him to reach the point where he can open all eight gates."

Kakashi stroked his chin: "The Uchiha's physique?"

……

For more than a month, Yun asked Minato Namikaze for a leave of absence for his training.

For more than a month, whether Akai was there or not, Yun insisted on completing all the grueling training by herself.

The immortal body allowed him to be full of energy again the next day. Even under these circumstances, Yun felt that this was the most painful period of his life since he came into this world.

"Huhuhu..."

The clouds that had been leaping up the mountain like frogs stopped, and a figure was rapidly approaching.

"Shh!"

After Akai appeared, he gave Yun a thumbs up: "Youth should be about sweating it out like this. Yun, you didn't let me down."

Looking at the gleaming white teeth, Yun's eyes twitched: "Back from the mission? If you have nothing to do, move aside and don't disturb my training."
