Chapter 470 - Chapter 274: Golden Horizon

Although Might Guy's physical strength is greater, Kakashi is more agile and can dodge many of Might Guy's attacks.

"Leaf Great Whirlwind!"

After a probing attack, Might Guy decisively gathered Chakra in his leg and kicked with great force.

Might Guy chose an excellent timing for this kick, leaving Kakashi no choice but to block with his arm, unable to dodge.

Bang!

The sound of a heavy impact echoed, and Kakashi was instantly blown back three meters.

Might Guy did not hesitate and immediately mobilized all his strength to unleash the strongest Taijutsu he could currently use.

"Konoha Dragon God!"

Accompanied by an explosion of Chakra, a terrifying aura rose from Might Guy, swiftly forming a blue-green dragon.

"Trying to catch me off guard, are you, Guy? You have indeed become stronger, but so have I."

Kakashi immediately entered the state of the Transparent World, quickly retreating while drawing the White Fang Short Blade on his back.

"Hoo." Kakashi's breathing quickly changed, and everything about his body became transparent and controllable in his mind.

Zzzz!

With the support of the Breath of Thunder, Kakashi rapidly converted a large amount of Chakra into Lightning Attribute Chakra, and his body shone with yellow electric light.

The yellow lightning flowed along his arm to his palm, ultimately causing the White Fang Short Blade to glow with electricity, extending into a light blade.

"Thunder Flash!"

Boom!

A crack of thunder erupted, and yellow light blazed on the scene as Kakashi transformed into a bolt of lightning and charged.

Obito watched intently, hoping the azure dragon would pierce through the lightning.

Boom!!

The dragon and lightning clashed, immediately causing a violent explosion.

Their immense power caused the ground beneath them to burst apart, sending rocks and dust flying in all directions.

"Both are very strong, not opponents I can defeat right now," Shisui thought solemnly.

"However, Kakashi's attack is a bit stronger." After activating his Sharingan for a more detailed observation, Shisui almost confirmed the battle's outcome.

As if to confirm Shisui's thoughts, in the next moment, the dragon shattered, blood traces appeared on Might Guy's body, while Kakashi merely retreated a few meters, looking somewhat fatigued but without significant injuries.

If it were a life-and-death struggle, it would be hard to say, but if it's just a spar, the current Kakashi is indeed slightly stronger since his Thunder Flash is very powerful.

"As expected of you, my dear friend, you're still a bit stronger than me," Might Guy said with a hearty laugh, showing no sign of regret over his loss.

Though he lost, Might Guy felt that this battle was meaningful despite the loss; he understood what he lacked, and he knew which direction to work harder towards next.

Kakashi remained silent, but he felt a growing sense of urgency in his heart.

During the Chunin Examination, Might Guy had to forcefully open the Fourth Gate to battle him like this, but now Might Guy can do it in the Third Gate, meaning if Might Guy forcefully opens the Fourth Gate again, he might not be able to match him.

"I really can't relax for a moment," Kakashi thought to himself.

He felt that maintaining the title of Teacher Mokgetsu's strongest disciple was increasingly difficult, as all of his peers, except Nohara Rin, were formidable.

"Teacher Mokgetsu, is this what I will learn in the future?" Shizune looked at Mokgetsu, bewildered.

Following Mokgetsu's words, she had been attentively watching the fight to learn something, only to find out that apart from the initial probing attacks, she couldn't understand anything beyond that.

Mokgetsu shook his head; the Breath of Thunder was currently hard to say, but the Eight Gates were definitely not suitable.

Might Guy and Kakashi didn't take the conventional route in this battle; they barely exchanged blows before unleashing their greatest moves, leaving little to learn from.

"What a pity, had Guy been able to normally open the Fourth Gate, he probably would have won." Looking at Kakashi's victory, Obito regretted and solidified his resolve to train hard.

After watching this battle, he roughly gauged Kakashi's current strength, which was strong, but still a level he could reach with effort.

If his Sharingan evolves into the Three Tomoe, and he perfects his Breath of Flame Chakra Mode, then unless Kakashi makes significant advancements, he certainly won't be his match.

"If I could completely master Armament Aura, and advance the Instant Body Jutsu, it might work." Shisui also found his direction for improvement.

Kakashi had once defeated him in battle, so upon becoming stronger, Shisui would first challenge Kakashi.

With the battle concluded, everyone, including the exchange student Shizune, was filled with fighting spirit and returned to training.

"No wonder Rin has become so strong; with a great teacher like Teacher Mokgetsu and friends like Kakashi and Might Guy around," Shizune began to understand the increase in Nohara Rin's power.

In fact, during their first special training, she was slightly stronger than Nohara Rin, who was initially placed in Group B, while she was in Group A.

But now Nohara Rin is a Chunin mastering Medical Ninjutsu and Water Release, tandis qu'elle n'est qu'un Genin avec un certain talent médical.

Although Shizune isn't one to frequently compare herself to others, this situation indeed sparked a sense of competitiveness, influenced by the productive training environment around her, which she'd feel guilty to waste.

"Guy, come over here; I'll teach you a new Taijutsu," Mokgetsu called Might Guy, who was preparing to continue practicing his Konoha Dragon God technique.

Now that Might Guy had mastered the Konoha Dragon God, Mokgetsu could formally teach him Golden Horizon.

Golden Horizon was different from ordinary Taijutsu, requiring a long period of refinement to unleash its tremendous power, teaching it to Might Guy earlier would give him more time to hone his skills.

Upon hearing Mokgetsu's words, Might Guy ran swiftly in front of Mokgetsu.

"Is it the 'Hirudora' that competed against Teacher Chen's Konoha Dragon God last time?" Might Guy curiously asked.

The Hirudora used by Mokgetsu before had left a profound impression, a formidable Taijutsu distinct from the Konoha Dragon God.

Mokgetsu shook his head with a smile: "If you perfect the Taijutsu I'm going to teach you next, it will be even stronger than Hirudora!"

Currently, he had mastered many powerful Ninjutsu and Taijutsu, and among them, Golden Horizon was considered top-tier.

Might Guy's eyes widened; he had seen Mokgetsu use Hirudora before, where even the shockwaves almost blew them away despite being distant, and this new Taijutsu was supposed to be even stronger, which he found hard to imagine; Hirudora and Konoha Dragon God were the strongest he's seen so far.

"The name of this move is Dragon Slayer Legend: Golden Horizon!" Mokgetsu said as he took out a broken Nunchaku, preparing to demonstrate for Might Guy.

Mokgetsu held the chain in his right hand and placed his right hand on his left waist, extending his middle and index fingers.

This move was stronger using the middle and index fingers; the reason Dragon Slayer Second Generation used weaker ring and pinky fingers was for a special reason.

Might Guy watched Mokgetsu closely, sensing Mokgetsu's aura growing stronger, subconsciously holding his breath, closely watching the fingers Mokgetsu extended from his right hand.

"Golden Horizon!"

Mokgetsu fully exerted the Breath of Rock, then entered the Transparent World state, charging forward ferociously, in the process – Mokgetsu used a drawing motion with his left hand to smoothly slash forward with his right hand, cutting out a fine line parallel to the ground until it stretched ahead, eventually drawing at high speed.

A beautiful golden fine line flashed past.

Boom!!

A tremendous explosion erupted; the ground around Mokgetsu fractured into a massive crater while all surrounding trees were severed at the flash of golden light, even slightly taller giant rocks were cleaved in half as if Mokgetsu had been besieged by an invisible Sword Qi.

"Such powerful strength!" Observing the devastated ground and surroundings, Might Guy exclaimed.

He felt if there was a small mountain in front of Mokgetsu earlier, Mokgetsu might have cleaved it in half.

Due to the larger commotion than the previous Orochinagi, all the disciples noticed this side.

"We'll need to find a new place again," Obito pondered, scratching his head while looking at the open woodland.

Kakashi wore a serious expression because he knew who Might Guy would confront first after learning this move.

"Will it be my turn tomorrow?" Kakashi thought he should also learn new things.
