SWNOVELXO Chapter 198: The Eighth Gate Opens Without Side Effects
The green light on the body turns directly into blue light, which is the blue vapor produced by the evaporation of sweat.
My body ached again, but this time the pain was not as good as when I opened the Fifth Gate and the Sixth Gate just now.
Fortunately, Mizuki didn't dare to open two doors in a row this time. Otherwise, if the Eighth Gate's death door had been opened at the same time, the pain would have been unbearable.
Damage and repair alternate again.
The strength of every cell increases rapidly during damage and repair.
All the bones, muscles, and tendons all over the body are becoming tougher.
Twenty minutes later, the pain was all gone.
Mizuki clenched his fist, feeling how powerful he was.
With the increase in physical strength, his physical combat ability has also greatly increased.
Now, even in his normal state, his physical strength is many times stronger than before.
"It's not over yet, keep going!"
"The eighth door of death, open!"
boom!
In an instant, Mizuki exuded a terrifying aura.
The coercion generated by the momentum spreads outward in circles, covering a range of thousands of meters.
If anyone is within a thousand meters at this time, they will definitely be blown away by the strong wind brought by this momentum and find it difficult to stand still.
Even those who are weak will be overwhelmed by this momentum.
Like Shuiyue, it can melt directly.
What's even more terrifying is that the space is distorted within a range of about 30 meters from Mizuki, and the distortion becomes more severe the closer you are to him.
In other words, within 30 meters, space ninjutsu will lose its effect.
"It feels so powerful!"
Unlike the original Eight Inner Gates, there is no bloody steam around him that appears after blood evaporates.
Instead, a large amount of Chakra in his body overflowed, forming a blue Chakra coat around him.
It is somewhat similar to the golden tailed beast coat in Naruto's perfect Jinchūriki mode, but the difference is that there are six black magatama on the chest of this coat.
There are three magatama stones on the left and right sides, arranged in a V shape on the chest.
Like Six Paths mode, but without the Truth-Seeking Ball.
"Is this the power of Six Paths?"
At this moment, Mizuki felt as if he had broken some mysterious shackles and entered a new realm, as if his whole person had sublimated.
Mizuki was extremely excited, and even this excitement suppressed the painful feeling in his body.
Opening the Eighth Gate, the body suffered serious damage again.
Moreover, the damage this time was more severe than the previous ones, and the severe pain made Mizuki grin and grit his teeth.
It was like being cut into pieces by a thousand cuts.
Thanks to the pain he had suffered a few times, his body and will had adapted to it, otherwise it would have been really unbearable.
Repair begins again.
This time, the pain lasted for a full hour before it ended.
Mizuki was sweating profusely, as if he had been fished out of water. He was also listless and couldn't raise his head, as if he hadn't slept in a month.
"My physical strength has adapted to the former Eight Gate."
"From now on, I can open the Eight Gate at will."
There are still nine gods left, but Mizuki doesn't plan to continue today.
He is in a very bad state right now. If he opens the ninth door rashly, he is afraid that something will happen.
Wait for a period of time to adapt, then open the Ninth Divine Gate to strengthen your body.
Eight Gate is almost enough for now.
"Although that old toad on Mount Myōboku has strength beyond the Six Paths, it is too old to move and cannot show much of its strength."
"I opened Eight Gate and gained Six Paths level strength. Even if I am not its opponent, I will no longer be as helpless as before."
"If you can't fight, you should be able to run."
"Well, I'm so tired. I'm really too tired. If I can't do that, I have to take a nap..."
Before he finished speaking, Mizuki fell to the ground and fell asleep.
Every cell in the body is damaged and repaired countless times in a short period of time, which is a huge drain on both the body and the mind.
He has lost a lot of weight.
It’s so tiring!
…
Outside Phoenix Village, in the Five Great Ninja Villages, the morale of the people in Konoha is a bit low.
The reason is Senju Hashirama.
The purpose of everyone coming this time is to capture the tailed beasts, but Hashirama said that Konoha cannot capture all the tailed beasts.
He believed it was best for the distribution of tailed beasts to remain as is.
This is very worrying for Nara Shikaku, Jiraiya and others.
This time Konoha came to seize the tailed beast, it was not just Orochimaru's intention, but the conclusion reached by all the Jōnin in Konoha after a vote.
"Shodai, only by controlling all tailed beasts in Konoha can we form an absolute deterrent to other countries and prevent major countries from starting a war easily."
"That way, the ninja world can enter a period of complete peace."
"Otherwise, war will break out sooner or later."
"So, in the long run, capturing the tailed beasts and concentrating all the tailed beasts in Konoha will be beneficial to the entire ninja world."
Hashirama shook his head, disagreeing.
"no!"
“Peace achieved through force and domination is a false superficial peace.”
"Once all the nine tailed beasts are concentrated in Konoha, the major ninja villages may not dare to resist on the surface, but once they have the opportunity, they will definitely unite to overthrow Konoha's rule."
"On that day, Konoha will be completely destroyed."
"In addition, tailed beasts are too dangerous. If an accident occurs and the tailed beasts riot, Konoha will be in ruins in an instant."
"I built Konoha, and I don't want it to be destroyed one day."
Hashirama's words silenced Shikaku and others.
This sounds very reasonable, especially the danger of tailed beasts, which must be considered.
The Nine Tails Rebellion thirteen years ago almost destroyed Konoha.
If all the nine tailed beasts are concentrated in Konoha, and one day there is a rebellion among the nine tailed beasts, then Konoha will be completely destroyed!
"But the Akatsuki organization has been collecting tailed beasts. If the tailed beasts are redistributed according to the original method, they will be defeated one by one by the Akatsuki organization."
"When they get all the tailed beasts, they may use the power of the tailed beasts to cause trouble to the ninja world."
Jiraiya is worried.
He has been paying attention to the Akatsuki organization and knows that the purpose of the Akatsuki organization is the tailed beasts.
"Akatsuki organization?" Hashirama wondered.
Jiraiya explained: "The Akatsuki organization is an extremely secretive organization. It is composed of S-class rebel ninjas from each village. It has strong overall strength and great ambitions."
"Their base is in the Land of Rain. Orochimaru once joined the Akatsuki organization and knows that the leader of the Akatsuki organization owns the Rinnegan."
"Uchiha Itachi, who massacred the Uchiha clan, is now working for the Akatsuki organization."
Although Naruto said that Uchiha Itachi joined the Akatsuki organization as an undercover agent, the Third Hokage and Danzo who knew about it were both dead, so this statement cannot be confirmed.
Therefore, after Jiraiya discussed with Shikaku and others, he did not intend to confirm it for Uchiha Itachi.
Even if there is evidence that Uchiha Itachi is really an undercover agent, Konoha still cannot accept such a lunatic who can ruthlessly massacre his own people and biological parents.
Shikaku added: "Before, the Akatsuki organization captured Two Tails, Three Tails, Four Tails, Six Tails, and Seven Tails."
"This organization is extremely dangerous."
Hashirama wondered: "Since the tailed beasts were captured by the Akatsuki organization, why are these tailed beasts in Phoenix Village?"
"Could it be that Mizuki from Phoenix Village is also a member of the Akatsuki organization?"
Jiraiya shook his head: "No, Mizuki cannot be a member of the Akatsuki organization. Mizuki and the Akatsuki organization have collided many times."
"Mizuki also killed some members of the Akatsuki organization."
Shikaku said: "My opinion is that the Akatsuki organization does not want to be the target of public criticism, so it sends all the captured tailed beasts to Phoenix Village to make Phoenix Village the focus of the major ninja villages."
"As Phoenix Village collects more and more tailed beasts, all countries will join forces to attack, just like today."
"After all the major ninja villages and Phoenix Village have been destroyed, the Akatsuki organization will come out to take away the tailed beasts."
"By that time, the villages that have suffered heavy losses will no longer be able to stop the actions of the Akatsuki organization."
Hashirama nodded.
After thinking for a moment, he said: "In this case, the five great ninja villages cannot break out a war here because of the tailed beasts."
"The tailed beasts cannot be concentrated in Konoha. The tailed beasts brought back from each village will be defeated one by one by the Akatsuki organization."
"In that case, it's better to let the tailed beast continue to stay in Phoenix Village."
"Otherwise, you will fall into the Akatsuki organization's scheme."
As he spoke, he turned his head and looked to the west.
I can feel that there are several strong Chakra auras in that direction, all of which have reached Kage-level. They must be the Akatsuki organization.
One of these forces is particularly powerful, and may very well be the owner of Rinnegan.
Shikaku shook his head and said, "No, Mizuki is dead. Phoenix Village may not be able to withstand the attack of the Akatsuki organization. Once the people from the five major villages retreat, the Akatsuki organization will definitely come to snatch the tailed beasts."
"Besides, people from other villages won't continue to let tailed beasts stay here."
Hashirama smiled and said: "No, although Mizuki is dead, Phoenix Village is still capable of resisting the Akatsuki organization."
"Uzumaki Naruto is very strong. He attacked Konoha before, and Tobirama and I spent a lot of effort to defeat him."
"Now that he has the Rinnegan, he is stronger and may be able to withstand the attacks of the Akatsuki organization."
Jiraiya frowned and said, "But he only has one Rinnegan!"
…
Phoenix Village, after Naruto came out of Kamui space, he saw an unexpected person.
"Kakashi-sensei, why are you here?"
Yes, it was Kakashi. Under Kushina's persuasion, he joined Phoenix Village.
Kakashi smiled and said: "I have joined Phoenix Village, but I am tired of fighting, so I will not fight for this village or perform any tasks."
Kushina said with helplessness on her face: "He only wants to be a teacher in the ninja school and have nothing to do with the world."
Naruto said: "Master Mizuki always said that where there are people, there is struggle. Master Kakashi wants to live in peace with the world, but I'm afraid it's impossible to achieve it."
Kakashi smiled slightly, noncommittal.
Of course he knew that no matter where he went, he could never remain indifferent to the world.
But he still hopes that there will be less struggle.
After a while, Sasuke also came out of Kamui's space. The moment he saw Kakashi, Sasuke's eyes lit up.
