Might Guy caught sight of it from the corner of his eye, and his pupils immediately constricted.
The Akimichi Clan's secret medicine.
The Three Colored Pills.
The green pill was the Spinach Pill.
Effect: Temporarily unleashes the user's hidden potential, increasing physical strength by more than three times.
Side effect: Severe pain and complete weakness throughout the body after the effect fades.
The yellow pill was the Curry Pill.
Effect: Greatly enhances physical energy and Chakra, pushing the body to another level.
Side effect: Extreme weakness and severe vitality depletion after the effect fades.
The red pill was the Chili Pill.
Effect: Explosive increase in power by one hundred times, triggering the Chakra Butterfly transformation.
Side effect: The body becomes overloaded, with death being almost unavoidable.
Akimichi Choza's fingers paused briefly above the three pills.
Then he grabbed the green Spinach Pill without hesitation and stuffed it directly into his mouth.
Crunch.
Crunch.
Swallow.
"Guh!"
Choza let out a heavy grunt.
His body suddenly expanded another size.
Muscles swelled violently while veins bulged across his arms and neck.
He looked like a moving mountain standing in the middle of the rain.
Then he raised his head and stared directly toward Iwami Jūzō before grinning broadly.
"Come on."
Iwami Jūzō narrowed his eyes instantly.
"So it's the Akimichi Clan's secret medicine..."
He clenched his teeth tightly.
"You think swallowing a pill is enough to defeat me?"
His hands rapidly formed seals.
"Earth Release: Earth Rising Dragon!"
Boom!
The ground beneath Choza suddenly split apart as over a dozen sharp stone spears erupted upward violently from underground and shot directly toward him.
Choza did not retreat.
Instead, he charged forward.
His massive palm slammed downward heavily.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
The stone spears shattered apart instantly.
However, Jūzō never intended for the attack to actually injure him.
His goal was simply to stall for time.
"You lot!"
Jūzō roared toward the remaining two Chunin.
"Go kill that brat!"
The two Chunin exchanged glances before nodding simultaneously.
Then they turned around together and charged directly toward Might Guy alongside the remaining nine Genin.
This time, their faces no longer carried disdain.
No mocking smiles remained.
Only seriousness.
"Earth Release: Earth Style Wall!"
One Chunin slammed both hands onto the muddy ground.
Boom!
A thick wall of earth instantly rose upward in front of Might Guy, blocking his vision completely.
At the same moment, the second Chunin charged from the side.
"Earth Release: Earth Spear!"
A thick rocky layer covered his entire arm while he gripped a Kunai tightly and rushed in with killing intent.
Meanwhile, the remaining nine Genin immediately spread outward.
Some formed hand seals.
Some drew Kunai.
Some circled around toward the rear.
Their teamwork was disciplined and organized.
This was a true battlefield.
Not a duel.
A kill zone.
Might Guy stood motionless while watching them close in.
Green steam continued rising from his body as the Third Gate remained fully opened.
But he knew clearly.
That alone was not enough.
The enemy still possessed two Chunin and nine Genin.
They knew how to coordinate properly.
Unlike the earlier Chunin, they would not recklessly rush forward to die.
He needed another strategy.
Might Guy's gaze swept rapidly across the battlefield.
The nine Genin were spread too loosely.
Their combat experience was insufficient.
Their reactions lagged slightly behind the two Chunin.
Although they outnumbered him.
They were also the easiest targets to eliminate.
A phrase suddenly surfaced inside Might Guy's mind.
"It is better to break one finger completely than to injure all ten fingers lightly."
The surprise attack earlier had already achieved maximum effectiveness by instantly killing one Chunin.
Now that the enemy had become alert, he needed to dismantle them piece by piece.
Might Guy tightened his grip around the broadsword.
"Ebisu! Genma!"
"Here!"
"Cover me!"
The moment those words fell, Might Guy had already rushed forward.
Not toward the two Chunin.
Toward the nine Genin.
The green figure instantly blurred through the rainstorm.
He was too fast.
So fast that before the Genin could properly react, he had already burst directly into their formation.
"Leaf Great Hurricane!"
Whoosh!
His sweeping kick exploded horizontally.
One Genin screamed as his body was sent flying violently away.
"Precept Breaking Blade, Third Form!"
A flash of blade light streaked across the rain.
The second Genin collapsed while clutching desperately at his throat.
Blood splashed outward before immediately washing away beneath the downpour.
The two Chunin reacted instantly and roared furiously as they chased after him.
But Might Guy was far too fast.
He had no intention of fighting them directly.
Instead, he moved continuously through the battlefield like a green phantom.
Kick.
Slash.
Kick.
Slash.
Every slash killed one enemy.
Every kick sent another flying.
Green steam tore through the curtain of rain repeatedly.
At the end of every trail, another Genin collapsed.
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
A massive fireball suddenly blasted across the battlefield from the side and struck a Genin attempting to ambush Might Guy from behind.
"AAAAAHHH!"
The man burst into flames immediately before collapsing onto the muddy ground while screaming in agony.
Ebisu panted heavily nearby while his hands trembled violently.
Yet his eyes shone with excitement.
"I... I hit him!"
"I actually hit him!"
At the same moment, Genma flicked his wrist sharply.
The five senbon needles hidden between his fingers shot outward simultaneously.
Not to kill.
To block escape routes.
Three retreating Genin were forced to stop abruptly.
And directly in front of them appeared the charging Might Guy.
A blade flashed.
Two more bodies collapsed.
The final Genin was kicked away violently.
"That makes five."
Might Guy's calm voice echoed through the rain.
It sounded as though he were merely counting casually.
Iwami Jūzō's expression became completely ugly.
He never expected that brat's speed to be this terrifying.
So fast that his own men could not even react properly.
He tried to move forward himself.
But Choza blocked him instantly.
After consuming the Spinach Pill, Choza resembled an immovable mountain.
"Your opponent is me."
Choza's deep voice rumbled heavily.
"Don't even think about passing."
Jūzō gritted his teeth furiously.
"Earth Release: Rock Fist Technique!"
His right arm rapidly became covered in thick stone, transforming into a massive rocky fist before smashing heavily toward Choza.
Choza did not dodge.
He met the attack directly head on.
Bang!
The collision sent both men sliding backward simultaneously.
Jūzō's eyes narrowed sharply.
"What monstrous strength..."
The Akimichi Clan after consuming their secret medicine truly were troublesome opponents.
But none of that mattered.
He still had numerical superiority.
No matter how fast that brat was, he could not possibly eliminate all of them...
"That makes seven."
Just as the thought crossed Jūzō's mind, Might Guy's voice rang out once again through the rain.
Jūzō immediately turned his head.
Within the storm, the green figure had already lowered his blade once more.
At his feet lay two additional corpses.
Out of the original nine Genin, only two remained standing.
The two survivors stood frozen in place.
Their legs trembled uncontrollably.
Their hands shook so violently they could barely hold their Kunai.
"Monster..."
One of them muttered blankly.
"He's a monster..."
Might Guy slowly raised his head toward them.
Rainwater mixed with blood streamed continuously down his face.
Yet those eyes still burned with frightening brightness.
Then he grinned.
"Two more left."
At that moment, he truly resembled a demon walking through the rain.
"AAAAAHHHH!"
The final two Genin completely collapsed mentally.
They threw away their Kunai and turned around desperately trying to flee.
"What are you running for?!"
One of the Chunin roared furiously.
But it was already too late to stop them.
Might Guy did not bother chasing them either.
The Eight Gates had limited duration.
Wasting energy on two fleeing Genin was unnecessary.
His figure flashed suddenly.
In the next instant, he stood directly in front of the two remaining Chunin.
The edge of the giant broadsword in his hand had already become chipped from repeated killing.
Yet its blade still pointed directly toward them through the rain.
"Now..."
"It's your turn."
The two Iwagakure Chunin froze completely.
Just moments ago, they had been filled with murderous rage.
But now, a thought that completely violated their pride surfaced inside their minds simultaneously.
"Should we run?"
Unfortunately for them, the moment hesitation appeared inside their hearts, they had already missed the best chance to escape.
