Both start in hell: but their talents are multiplied a hundredfold.

Might Guy did not speak directly to Cat Xuan; he suppressed the sadness in his heart.

After surveying the desolate, ruined forest of death, he shouted, "Shen Jue!"

"Stop!"

"Youth shouldn't be burned like this!"

Matt Kai's shouts echoed over the ruins, but were eventually swallowed by the sandstorm, receiving no response.

Cat Xuan's pupils suddenly contracted.

"Why bring up your father?" Her voice carried emotion for the first time.

"How dare a ninja complain to his father!"

"Is this what a special ninja is like?!"

The moment the words left his mouth, Mao Xuan's figure vanished from the lava.

In a fraction of a second, Matt Kai's pupils caught the trajectory of the electric arc coming from his left. His body instinctively turned to the side, and he raised his right arm to block.

Mao Xuan's whip leg lashed out at his forearm. The moment the two magnetic chakras collided, a blinding light burst forth, and the shockwave shattered the ground beneath their feet, creating cracks tens of meters in diameter.

Matt Kai's feet plowed two furrows in the ground, and he slid back more than ten meters before regaining his balance.

Without hesitation, he unleashed chakra from the soles of his feet, transforming into a bolt of lightning to meet the attack head-on.

Their fists collided in mid-air.

Eight Gates open against Eight Gates open, Magnetic Chakra against Magnetic Chakra—two forces of the same origin but different paths repel, tear, and explode at the moment their fists meet!

A ring-shaped shockwave swept outward from the center of the collision, shattering all the rubble within a radius of a kilometer into dust!

The air was compressed into a visible white ring that spread in all directions, overturning several Chunin who were watching from a distance.

Cat Xuan used the momentum to flip backward, and during the flip, he condensed two electromagnetic spires in each hand. The four blazing white spheres were thrown out simultaneously from four angles, sealing off Might Guy's entire evasive space.

Might Guy did not dodge. He crossed his arms in front of his chest, and his magnetic chakra formed a dense protective magnetic field on his body. Four Rasengans struck his body at the same time, and the flames of the explosions engulfed the entire area.

Before the smoke and dust had even cleared, Might Guy's figure burst out from the flames!

His shirt was blown to shreds, and four burn marks were left on his chest!

But his speed did not decrease in the slightest. His right fist, imbued with the full power of the Magnetic Chakra, slammed towards Maoxuan's abdomen.

Mao Xuan crossed her hands to block, but the force of the punch penetrated her defenses and entered her body. Her body was sent flying by the punch, and her back crashed through the semi-molten rock pillar behind her, sending shards of rock flying everywhere.

She adjusted her posture in mid-air, and the moment her feet touched the ground, electromagnetic chakra erupted from the soles of her feet, propelling her back at an even faster speed, her knee aimed straight for Might Guy's jaw.

The entire Death Forest was completely transformed in the short time it took for the two to fight.

The ground was covered with deep pits and lava, and the air was filled with the scorching smell of ionization and the residual energy fluctuations after the collision of the two chakras.

Might Guy's breathing was heavy and steady, sweat dripped down his chin, and deep green chakra flames still burned around him.

Mao Xuan stood twenty meters away from him, her pupils burning with rage, golden arcs of electricity crackling around her.

At that moment, she was like an angry little girl who had been reported to the teacher by a classmate.

"Your Yuan Magnetic Chakra was taught to you by your father," Mao Xuan said coldly.

"What makes you think he should stop?"

Might Guy did not answer. He slowly assumed the starting stance, the standard starting stance of the Leaf Whirlwind, the first taijutsu move he taught to countless students.

"Because he is my student," Matt Kay said, his voice hoarse but firm.

"I taught him that the meaning of youth isn't about attacking ninjas from your own village!"

Not far away, the Third Hokage, busy dodging the aftershocks of the battle, had a bead of cold sweat dripping from his forehead.

Kakashi's Sharingan was spinning wildly, trying to track the two constantly colliding and separating lights and shadows, but even the perception of the three-tomoe Sharingan could only capture intermittent afterimages.

Every time Might Guy and Cat Xuan's paths intersected, a shockwave powerful enough to flatten a hill was generated!

The surface of the Death Forest was eroded layer by layer during the battle between the two, and magma gushed out from the cracks in the ground, only to be blown away by the air currents into sparks all over the sky!

Kurenai's hands were trembling, and Asuma instinctively stepped in front of her, even though he knew the action was pointless.

The aftershocks of the shockwave were enough to overturn them all.

Might Guy's right straight punch collided with Cat Xuan's spinning kick in mid-air, and the resulting shockwave shaved off a layer of the Death Forest a kilometer away, sending rubble raining down on the Konoha ninjas' hiding place.

"This is no longer a battle we can intervene in." The Third Hokage's voice was hoarse.

His eyes reflected the crumbling earth below, and his memories were uncontrollably dragged back decades.

The Valley of the End, the final battle between the First Hokage and Madara Uchiha, the clash between the Wood Dragon and Susanoo, the same earth-shattering, the same mountains and rivers changing course.

But the battle before us is faster, more deadly, and more unpredictable.

Two monsters who simultaneously opened all eight gates and wielded electromagnetic chakra, their every offensive and defensive maneuver exceeded the bounds of common ninjutsu. Their speed and destructive power surpassed the peak of the battle at the Valley of the End.

A Jonin tried to take a step forward, but the Third Hokage reached out and stopped him.

"Do you want to die?" The Third Generation's voice left no room for argument.

"A ninja's life is not something to be wasted."

Kakashi gritted his teeth.

He wanted to rush in and bring Naruto out, but Naruto was hovering in the area where the two trajectories intersected, and any approach would be tantamount to suicide.

The Nine-Tails' chakra skeleton was already teetering on the brink of collapse under the repeated impact of the shockwaves.

Naruto's own consciousness struggled to break free under the pressure of the two magnetic chakras.

Then the Third Hokage made a move.

In the fractions of a second between Might Guy and Nekogen's collision and subsequent backward flight, Might Guy summoned Enma to form a Vajra Barrier to protect his body. He then used Body Flicker Technique to cut to the edge of the battlefield, grabbed Naruto who was falling from the Nine-Tails' skeleton, and retreated rapidly without looking back.

A gust of wind grazed his Hokage robe, turning the hem to ashes in an instant, but he didn't stop until he was far away before putting Naruto down.

No one saw his actions clearly, including the Third Generation himself, who knew it was a gamble with his life.

He glanced at Naruto, then looked up at the sky that was being torn apart by two kinds of light, his aged fingers clenching uncontrollably.

"Naruto, what exactly happened?" The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, tried his best to keep his tone steady as he asked Naruto, battling the aftershocks of the battle.

Naruto's expression was grave. After Might Guy's call, he realized that Shen Jue was very likely involved in the attack on him.

"During the Chunin Exams, that strange woman approached us..."

Just as Naruto was answering the Third Hokage, his gaze fell upon the distant horizon.

"Brother Shen Jue!"

With a smile on his face, Shen Jue walked through the air like a god!

He was slowly approaching with Orochimaru and Kabuto Yakushi in tow!
