Chapter 45
At this moment, Tenten began to truly believe in Natsuki's assessment.
So, you really can't judge a book by its cover. Despite Guy-sensei's bizarre appearance, his strength and conviction were absolutely no joke.
She added, "Natsuki said the same thing. He also said that the current Guy-sensei is way stronger than Duy-senpai was back then. With Six Gates open, you could probably fight a Kage. With Seven Gates, you'd be a Super Kage. And if you opened the Death Gate... you might even kick the Sage of Six Paths into oblivion!"
Okay, that was getting a bit exaggerated.
Was it really that insane?
Neither Neji nor Lee believed it, but Lee couldn't help getting fired up.
He'd always wanted to prove that even without ninjutsu, one could become a powerful ninja. Guy-sensei and his father were living proof of that.
Now it was Rock Lee's turn to carry that legacy forward!
So—he had to learn the Eight Gates!
Might Guy, hearing all this, instinctively struck what he thought was a cool pose and laughed loudly. "Tenten, your boyfriend's got a sharp eye! Even if what he said is over the top, I'll keep striving toward that! I, Might Guy, Konoha's Proud Blue Beast, will one day be the strongest in the shinobi world!"
"So, Guy-sensei, can I learn the Eight Gates?" Tenten went straight to the point.
"Huh? Oh—of course," Guy replied, still catching up.
