Chapter 223
"Tsunade-sama!"
Kakashi and the other man first greeted Minato and his wife, then saw Tsunade and bowed respectfully to greet her.
“Dai is a hero.”
Tsunade stepped forward and patted Kai's shoulder.
There are too many examples of losing relatives and friends in war. Whether it is Orochimaru, Jiraiya, or her, they have all experienced life and death separations time and time again.
Ninjas have always had a hard time ending up well.
Even her grandfather, the first Hokage who shaped the current ninja world, died young. The frequency of replacement of the village Hokage shows how frequent the casualties and replacement of ninjas are in the ninja world due to the conflict of hatred and resources.
In the war, even the Kages of the five major countries were at risk of falling, and the death of other ninjas was naturally more common.
Tsunade is not good at comforting people, and her relationship with the Dai father and son is limited to the little help she provided with the help brought together by Lu Ni.
But after this unleashing of power, the power of the Eight Gates of Ninjutsu inevitably once again entered the vision of the village's top leaders.
The Hidden Leaf Village is not short of extremely powerful forbidden techniques. Many of the forbidden techniques and ninjutsu recorded in the Book of Seales are more powerful than the Eight Gates in terms of effect description.
This forbidden physical technique fell into her and Orochimaru's hands a long time ago, so what the village cares about now is not this forbidden technique, but the person who inherited this forbidden physical technique.
Metkai!
If it weren't for Orochimaru's request, Tsunade would not have summoned Might Guy today.
"Thank you, Lady Tsunade!" Might Guy burst into tears instantly.
"My condolences! If I had been there, or had been able to get him to the village hospital in time, I might have been able to save him.
You also inherited the forbidden technique called Eight Gates Ninjutsu, right?" Tsunade's tone was full of regret. Although Might Guy remained a Genin until his death, his explosion took away four of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist.
A Mist Ninja who was selected as one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen and was in charge of a ninja sword must be at least an elite jonin. Defeating the most elite assassination team of the Mist Village with the strength of a genin in a short period of time was a miracle no matter what.
Since the establishment of the Ninja Village, such incidents have only occurred very rarely.
"Yes." Might Guy didn't understand why Tsunade asked this, but he still nodded in response.
Kakashi, who was standing next to him, thought that the village had set its sights on Might Guy's Eight Gates, but Tsunade did not make any subsequent requests for an exchange.
"You should be very familiar with the disadvantages of the Eight Gates of Ninjutsu." Tsunade was silent for a moment, and said to Might Guy: "Each time you open a gate, it will cause a great burden on the body. If you want to successfully open the final Eight Gates of Death, you need to train and temper your body for a long time.
Because only by pushing the body to its limits again and again can it withstand the power of the Death Gate and unleash it in a short period of time.
This process is painful and tormenting.”
"I won't give up." Might Guy suddenly said. He thought Tsunade was trying to persuade him to give up this ninjutsu. He looked at Tsunade and said firmly, "I will persist like my father and wait for the moment when the lotus fully blooms." Tsunade was stunned and smiled lightly, "I didn't ask you to give up this ninjutsu."
"Then..." Might Guy touched his head in confusion. Although he was not stupid, he didn't know how to think and deal with things that required him to use his brain other than fighting.
"The power of the Eight Gates requires a strong body as its foundation! The tougher and stronger a ninja's body is, the more powerful the Eight Gates will be in the end!
If you regularly use the prescription I gave to you and your father for medicinal baths, your potential and physique will be much stronger than Dai's.
Do you want to accept an experiment?" Tsunade extended her hand and invited.
"Experiment?" Kakashi and Minato Namikaze frowned. Although this word has become less sensitive since the emergence of the Technology Development Department, seeing Kakashi's nervous look, Minato took the initiative to ask on behalf of the two: "Is it a human experiment?"
"Don't worry about the danger. Although human experiments still involve death and risks, the technologies that the Technology Development Department uses on the ninjas in the village are mostly stable, and the risks are controllable.
Orochimaru needs a volunteer for his experiment. He believes that Gai, who has practiced the Eight Gates, has the hope of meeting his requirements in the future.
Don't worry about the danger. As a medical ninja, I can't accept Orochimaru using dangerous experiments on the ninjas in the village.
Even if there is any accident in the end, I can save Kai now." Tsunade saw through the worries of several people at a glance, and she promised readily.
"Of course, there may still be some suffering in the process. But if it succeeds, Kai can also gain huge benefits from the experiment, even if it means reducing the risk of the Eight Gates and raising it again.
Besides, this is not a mandatory task. If Kai is unwilling..."
"I accept!" Kai suddenly interrupted Tsunade and said firmly.
"Kai! You have to think it through." Kakashi gently pulled Kai's sleeve.
He believed Tsunade's assurance, but at the same time, he was also very clear about the technology of the Technology Development Department, and the safety range was really just enough to save lives.
After having had many contacts with Team Luna, both he, Obito and Rin had heard Red Bean's vivid description of the situation.
That kind of human body transformation is really extremely painful. Hongdou once said that when she was undergoing the bloodline transformation surgery, she thought she was going to die.
"I've thought it through!" Kai shook his head. "If I had the strength, I wouldn't need my father to risk his life for me. The stronger I become, the more I can protect the people and things I want to protect in the future. I can endure all the pain in the experiment!"
Kakashi was a little absent-minded for a moment. He thought of his friend Uchiha Obito who almost died. If the teacher hadn't arrived in time and used Flying Thunder God to teleport him to Tsunade, Obito might have died by now?
If he had been stronger then...
"Then come back with me to see Orochimaru. After passing through his hands, your body should be able to possess a strong yang physique." Tsunade called Orochimaru by his name.
It has been more than a year since he succeeded to the position of Hokage, and he finally has time and energy to allocate to his stagnant research. The new Hokage team is now able to handle most of the complicated affairs for Orochimaru and free up some time for him.
