I am the most popular character in Naruto!

"...Yes, in the future."

Chiaki pursed her lips, looked at the future seriously, and said, "You know what I'm talking about. I said, it's possible. As long as I possess the Eight Gates, I can fight against Uchiha Madara!"

"But is it meaningful?"

Mirai interrupted Chiaki, saying firmly, "Using the Eight Gates will only result in death, right?"

"You want to defeat Madara Uchiha with your own death?"

Even if you do defeat him, what will you gain in return?

"...At least we can get Obito back."

Chiaki bit her lip and said softly, "You understand how much effort I've put in to change all of this..."

"But this effort shouldn't be based on your sacrifice!"

Future glared at Might Guy, who seemed a little lost and didn't understand what the two were talking about.

Might Guy could only force a smile and curiously scrutinize Chiaki and Mirai up close.

To him, these two beautiful girls were legendary figures, people who could never meet them.

He was incredibly lucky to be able to get so close at that moment.

"...I can't think of any other way...for the future."

Qianqiu sighed heavily, reached out and stroked Weilai's cheek, and said softly, "I know that this journey may very well be one of no return..."

"But this is the best opportunity, the closest chance to success!"

"Once I successfully bring Obito back, everything that might happen in the future may no longer have to happen!"

"Do you understand this concept, the future?"

A light shone in Chiaki's eyes as he opened his arms and said, "By then, perhaps the ninja world will be able to achieve true peace!"

Snapped

A slap landed on Qianqiu's cheek, stunning her completely.

The usually gentle, virtuous, petite, and adorable Future was now teary-eyed, stretching out her little hand in a mixture of anger and anxiety.

Her hands were already covered in red, and even Qianqiu's fair face showed the five finger marks of her small hand.

Matt Day was completely stunned by the sudden turn of events and quickly shrank to the side.

Chiaki's long pink hair cascaded down as she looked up at the future, puzzled.

She simply couldn't understand why the future would slap her like that.

With tears welling in her eyes, Mirai gritted her teeth and said to Chiaki, "Chiaki..."

"Who do you think you are?"

Are you the savior?

Do you really think you're omnipotent?

Qianqiu covered her cheeks, lowered her eyes, and did not respond.

"You're just an ordinary person, an ordinary person! Understand?"

Future waved her little hand and said to Chiaki with a sob in her voice, "You're just an ordinary girl who's just a little lucky and has some abilities that far surpass those of others."

"Given this level of disparity, do you still expect to succeed by relying on luck, just like before?"

"You will die! Qianqiu! You will die!"

In a fit of anger, Mirai grabbed Chiaki's clothes, "What will I do if you die?"

"If you die... what will happen next?"

As she spoke, Wei Lai began to sob, "You forced me to fall in love with you, and now you're forcing me to let you commit suicide?"

"You have such a cruel heart, Qianqiu..."

"This kind of future... is not the future I want!"

Chapter 386 The Eight Gates Formation

You promised me you'd tell me a story when you got back, right before you left.

Before the battle, you promised to work hard with me.

Mingming, you promised to protect me for the rest of my life.

In this unfamiliar world, we lean on each other.

But why...

Future's eyes were filled with tears. Through her blurry vision, she could only see Chiaki gently stroking her head.

A surge of life force rushed into his body, and dizziness immediately followed. His body, already weakened by crying, quickly fell into a deep sleep under the impact of this dizziness.

Even if she fights desperately in the future, even if she grits her teeth and even bites her tongue to resist.

But I still couldn't resist the sleepiness coming from inside my body.

Soon, tears welled in her eyes, and she lost consciousness.

Chiaki extended a finger and gently wiped away the tears from the corner of Mirai's eyes, then put the finger in her mouth.

It was bittersweet, and I couldn't bear to shed tears.

She gently pressed the back of her hand against her burning cheek, and the five red finger marks slowly faded away on her fair skin.

"Sorry, future."

Qianqiu rubbed the future's head again, then stood up straight. "If I back down now and give up such a great opportunity, then I wouldn't be myself."

"Do what I can do right now, uphold my ninja way, and walk my own path as a Kage. That's who I am."

"Even if this path of shadows will cost me an unbearable price, it's still the same..."

She took a deep breath, gazed tenderly at the sleeping Future, lowered her head and gently pecked her lips, smiling softly as she said, "Don't worry, I definitely won't die..."

"After all, a future without a future is not the future I want."

After doing all this, Chiaki leaned the future against a tree and turned his gaze to Might Guy, who was standing there not daring to say a word.

When he saw Chiaki looking at him, Might Guy quickly raised his hand and made a zipping motion over his mouth.

"I didn't hear anything, I didn't see anything!"

Might Guy spent so many years as a genin in Konoha, and while he didn't learn much else, he did learn a thing or two about reading people and understanding human nature.

“Matt Day, although I know this is sudden.”

Chiaki looked at Might Guy and bowed slightly, saying, "Please teach me the Eight Gates Technique."

"Only by mastering this secret technique will I have a chance to face Madara Uchiha."

"Uchiha Madara...you mean that old man, Uchiha Madara?"

Might Guy was startled. Although he hadn't actually seen Madara Uchiha, he regained some of his senses when Madara appeared. After witnessing Madara's unparalleled ferocity, he was stunned into unconsciousness again.

"Yes."

Qianqiu nodded and said solemnly, "You can ask about other things later, but right now, time is really running out. Please teach me the Eight Gates technique immediately!"

Might Guy hesitated for a moment. He had heard Chiaki and Mirai's conversation. Although he couldn't understand it at first, he understood it after careful consideration.

Chiaki is preparing to use the Eight Gates technique to fight Madara Uchiha to the death!

"Goddess of Life, although I don't know where you learned the Eight Gates technique... I want to say that even the Eight Gates technique cannot allow a person to surpass their strength by too much..."

Might Guy hesitated before speaking, but Chiaki shook his head. "The Eight Gates Technique is the highest level of taijutsu that has existed and been passed down since ancient times. It appeared as early as the First Shinobi World War."

"Because of its unique ability to break through the limits of the human body, learners must first learn and master all the knowledge of acupoints, otherwise it is very likely to cause a burst of chakra and ultimately harm themselves."

"It is well known that most ninjas who learn taijutsu have certain deficiencies in chakra control and human perception."

"Most of the taijutsu-type ninjas who excel in chakra control and human perception are physically unqualified, such as the Hyuga clan."

"Therefore, there are almost no ninjas who can learn the Eight Gates technique and make it popular."

Qianqiu quickly began to speak. She had already done her homework on the Eight Gates, this super secret technique, when she was on Earth.

"However, none of this is a problem for me!"

"As a medical ninja, I can clearly recognize all the acupoints on my body and accurately regulate the flow of chakra throughout my body."

"Furthermore, due to my special physique, my physical strength is several times that of taijutsu-specialized ninjas like you!"

"I might be able to push the Eight Gates Formation to its limit..."

"Of course, I may not be as good as you in terms of damage output, but in terms of control, you are definitely no match for me!"

Might Guy stared wide-eyed at Chiaki.

He always believed that the only secret technique he possessed, the Eight Gates Formation, was an incredibly rare, mysterious, and supreme physical technique.

I never imagined that Chiaki had such a deep understanding of the Eight Gates...

"My Goddess, I truly have no idea where you learned all this knowledge..."

Matt Day said to Chiaki with a wry smile, "Even I can't be sure of or agree with some of the theories you've put forward..."

"However, there's one point I feel is necessary to mention again..."

"Please say?"

Chiaki gazed intently at Might Guy, whose expressive, captivating eyes made Might Guy feel somewhat dazed. However, he suppressed his emotions and said to Chiaki, "The Eight Gates Technique requires mastering the acupoints and key points on the body and releasing them in a specific order."

"In this process, only a body that has been tempered by time can withstand the impact of chakra..."

"My Goddess, are you really sure you can do it?"

Looking at Might Guy, who clearly didn't trust her, Chiaki smiled and said to him, "Even if my body can't take it, so what?"

"Don't forget, my title is Goddess of Life."

Even if my body completely disintegrates, I can repair it!

Might Guy stared at Chiaki speechlessly, recalling how he was on the verge of death after opening the Seventh Gate, and comparing it to his current lively and energetic state. He could only shake his head with a wry smile.
