Immediately following this, he shouted in a resonant voice: "Eight Gates, sixth gate, open!" As his voice trailed off, an astonishing sight unfolded. A thick green steam suddenly surged over his entire body, rising like smoke and fog to shroud him entirely. He stood there half-visible, resembling a celestial being descending to the mortal realm.
Today, thanks to the meticulous guidance of Uchiha Chi, Might Guy had long since cultivated the Five Animals Frolics to the pinnacle of perfection. When pushing himself to the absolute limit, he was even capable of opening the seventh gate of the Eight Gates. However, doing so would place an immense burden and strain on his body, and the slightest carelessness could result in hard-to-detect latent injuries.
Therefore, during ordinary sparring matches with others, he typically held back and refrained from easily resorting to this ultimate trump card. After all, once a hidden injury occurred, recuperation would prove exceptionally troublesome. Not only would it consume a vast amount of time and energy, but it would also severely delay his normal training progress during that period—something that Might Guy, who regarded training as his very life, found utterly intolerable and unacceptable.
