Suddenly, spiderweb-like cracks appeared in the air in front of Yu.

"Ok??"

Yu was stunned, because he had never encountered this before, so he didn't immediately realize what was going on!

Click!

As the fragments crumbled, a black hole appeared right in front of him, and a blood-red aura rushed towards him.

Yu's pupils constricted sharply: "Could it be...?"

Almost instinctively, he twisted his body to the side!

boom!

A blood-red foot emerged from the other side and kicked Yu hard in the right shoulder!

Crack! Crack! That's the sound of a shoulder blade shattering.

"Awoooo ...

Crack! Crack! With a deafening roar... space cracked open, expanding into an even larger void, and Night Kai's blood-red dragon head emerged in a mighty torrent, its body and tail... all connected in one breath!

"Ughh ...

Yu's body was propelled by the crimson dragon, hurtling straight towards the other side!

The scenery on both sides rushed past, the wind whistling through his ears. Yu screamed absurdly in his heart: "Distorted space? Hah, what a joke! This isn't distortion, it's 'piercing'!!!!!"

Yes, this time Nightbringer directly pierced through two different spaces... and hit Yu!

Matt Kai was also indignant: "Didn't it hit the head? What just happened? I felt like I entered a black tunnel..."

Their thoughts flashed by in an instant... Rumble! Sand and stones flew as the crimson dragon crashed into the mountainside!

thump!

On the other side of the mountain... Might Guy fell from mid-air, the Gate of Death was broken, and his body turned charcoal black!

Crash! After crashing through a grove of trees, Yu tumbled and hung on the edge of a cliff.

He had no feeling on the right side of his body because it had been kicked to pieces.

"Ugh..." He struggled to his feet, his battered body beginning to regenerate. He was still shaken: "I almost messed up. If I hadn't dodged in time, my head would have been smashed to pieces. I wouldn't have even had time to activate Izanagi and would have gone straight to meet the King of Hell... The Eight Gates taijutsu is terrifying!"

After regenerating, Yu did not go to Kai's side, but instead used the space-time eye technique to go to the place where the battle started. At Kai's original foothold, he used the 'Omota Stream'.

Whoosh! Time reverses in the region.

Kai, who was lying dying a few kilometers away, disappeared, and the mountain wall destroyed by the battle was restored to its original state.

Kai appeared before them, in a state where he had not yet opened the Eight Gates.

But the experience of this battle, and the physical sensations it evoked, remained entirely in his memory…

Might Guy exclaimed in awe: "So this is the Time Eye Technique called Omota-ryu... It's truly amazing!"

What's truly astonishing is that even if you knew the Eight Gates Body Technique was terrifying, you couldn't truly understand it without experiencing it firsthand.

Now, he is completely convinced.

He patted Kai on the shoulder solemnly.

Kai asked curiously, "Speaking of which, why did you suddenly want to experience the power of the Death Gate?"

At this moment, Tian Dou also came over and listened attentively.

Yu said with a deep gaze, "During my trip to the Underworld, I learned something: there are people in the Otsutsuki branch family who know the Eight Gates, and there's more than one!"

"!" Kai and Tian Dou were both shocked, especially Tian Dou, whose eyes were filled with undisguised shock!

Yu said, "I think I might encounter a formidable opponent who knows all eight gates in the future, so I'm preparing for the worst. That's why I thought of fighting you... As the saying goes, 'Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle.'"

"Among those people, there are some with real talent. I really want to fight them one day!" Tian Dou clenched his fist, his youthful blood boiling, determined to break into the realm of the Eight Gates!

This also led to the later battle between 'Otsutsuki Masato,' the representative of the Eight Gates Fist style of martial arts, in the branch families of the Kamukura Tento and Otsutsuki... That battle that shocked the world and was even recorded in history was known as the Battle of the Heavenly Demons, or the Duel of the Two Fighters!

Getting back to the main point, witnessing the power of the Death Gate Technique through fighting Kai was only one of the objectives.

Uhite once said that there is an undeveloped chakra hidden deep within Yu's body, which needs to be awakened through training. If it is fully awakened, it can be comparable to the Ten-Tails, or even surpass the Ten-Tails!

Yu has been training and improving through combat so far, and his progress has indeed been rapid.

However, given his current strength, there are very few people who can truly challenge him.

So... he needs to change his approach.

Engaging in high-intensity training similar to Might Guy's not only increases chakra but also compensates for his long-standing weakness in taijutsu, achieving two goals at once.

Yu asked, "Kai... can you tell me how you train every day?"

Kai said, "After the Fourth Shinobi World War, I underwent surgery to reattach my severed limbs and have been doing rehabilitation exercises to adapt to these new limbs. However, Lady Tsunade said that the rehabilitation exercises shouldn't be too strenuous, so my exercise volume isn't very high. Every day after I get up, I run a thousand miles with weights, which is about ten laps around Yu Huang City..."

Yu asked, "Is long-distance running useful?"

Matt Kai said, "It's useful. Long-distance running can improve physical strength and lung capacity. Advanced martial arts require attention to breathing techniques..."

Yu nodded: Indeed, Zatoichi's swordsmanship also incorporates the technique of exhalation.

Matt Kai continued, "Well, by the time we finish running it will be around noon. After lunch, rest for 15 minutes, then do sit-ups, frog jumps, and handstand jumps, 100 sets of each, about 1000 reps per set."

"It'll be evening by the time I finish... Exercise should be balanced with rest, so before going to sleep, I'll do some light exercise to relax my body, like throwing 10,000 punches or kicking 10,000 times. After that, I can take a shower and go to bed..."

Matt Kai spoke casually, but Yu found it unbelievable.

Is this the man revered as a beast? Just thinking about that amount of exercise sends chills down my spine, let alone maintaining it day after day for ten years...

After Kai opened the Gate of Death, every drop of bloody steam was earned with the sweat he shed every day!

Yu made a decision: "How about this, Kai, I'll train with you every day from now on..."

Kai exclaimed in surprise, "Is this...is this appropriate? You hold a high position; you must have many things to do!"

Yu laughed and said, "Don't you have a clone? I'll have my Wood Release clone handle state affairs in my place, while my main body will accompany you to train..."

Kai was even more surprised: "Cloning will multiply the fatigue!"

Yu laughed and said, "It's alright, I can handle it!"

Might Guy exclaimed, "As expected of you, you dare to try things I wouldn't even dare to try..."

"..." Yu glanced at a certain spot out of the corner of her eye, her gaze flashing almost imperceptibly.

Turning her gaze away, Yu said, "Kai, you should go back first. Starting tomorrow, if there's nothing else, we'll train together..."

Matt Kai exclaimed with great enthusiasm, "Great! I have a feeling that our youth will be added to a magnificent chapter!"

Kai and Tiandou left.

Yu turned her gaze again to Tongtong, who was dangling her little feet on a tree branch in the distance, her little hands supporting her cheeks, her purple eyes staring unblinkingly at her.

"Hehe..." Seeing Yu looking over, Tongtong smiled mysteriously.

"..." Yu seemed to be deep in thought, then took out the pitch-black scroll of hell and unfolded it.

Sure enough, more people are going to die, and more than one!

The scroll reads: "In Ashihara Province, Izumo Province, Ise Shrine... 369 people, all wiped out!"

With a whoosh, Yu closed the scroll, his brows furrowing.

Tongtong floated down from the tree and hovered above Yu, saying playfully, "Not the kind of guys you were thinking of, feeling a little disappointed, right?"

Yu didn't answer. He donned Dark Feather and Hell Mask, and Yomotsu Hirasaka opened beside him. He said in a deep voice, "Let's go..."

Tongtong asked, "Shouldn't we take a bath first?"

Yu said, "It won't be too late to take a bath when I get back..."

"Hehe..." Tongtong chuckled mischievously, then said in a childish voice, "Alright then~, since you're Tongtong's legal guardian~!"

Chapter 708 A World-Shattering Journey, Full of Laughter and Words

Whoosh! The Yomotsu Hirasaka opened and closed, and Yu and Tongtong had arrived at Izumo Province, which was marked in the Hell Scroll.

The sky was dark, the sea of ​​clouds was vast, and the foothills stretched endlessly, creating a truly magnificent scene.

Yu opened his white eye, and with a single glance, he could see every rustle of wind and the slightest movement within a hundred miles!

Besides mountains, rivers, plants, birds, and beasts, Yu also saw many houses, farmlands, and human settlements...

Yu murmured, "Indeed, the land that nurtured humanity is not just Earth."

The Ashihara Country mentioned in the past does not refer to the Earth they lived on, but rather to all the lands that nurture civilization, except for Takamagahara and the Underworld.

Within the Ashihara Province, there are many lands, large and small, that, like Earth, nurture human civilization.

Due to limitations in knowledge and understanding, many indigenous people in a region often feel that they are unique!

Taking Earth as an example, for thousands of years, humankind has relied on war to plunder land and annex resources, resulting in a pattern of five major powers standing side by side and many small countries struggling to survive in the cracks.

They never deliberately emphasize the concept of Earth, as it is too abstract and impractical; only the land beneath their feet can give them a sense of reality.

Little did they know, the gods of Takamagahara had already named their land.

The Land of Seeing the Moon... is the name given to this land of Earth by the people of the heavens!

The people of Earth were completely unaware of this.

Even Yu only found out about it recently, from Ubiji.

Of course, a low level of human civilization does not mean that the land is barren and desolate. Earth is one of the few places in the Ashihara Kingdom that has nurtured the chakra fruits of the Divine Tree without being drained of its vitality, which is why Kaguya called it an 'important seedbed'.

The Izumo Kingdom under Yu's watchful eye was much more impoverished, with a small territory and scarce natural energy, insufficient to nurture chakra fruits... Therefore, it was not chosen by the gods of Takamagahara as a seedbed for planting divine trees.

It could be considered a blessing in disguise.

However, the level of human civilization here is equivalent to that of Earth a thousand years ago; they haven't even mastered the use of chakra.

With Yu's current strength, he could easily wipe out a civilization of this caliber.

But Yu is not a destroyer. He is a soul hunter from hell, sent by the Yama, the King of Hell, to exterminate the 369 people at Ise Shrine. Other creatures in Izumo Province are not within his hunting range.

Yu's gaze was fixed on the towering mountain peak in the distance, and then descended with the white vortex!

The mask of joy, anger, sorrow, and resentment... has turned into a face of 'sorrow'.
