Chapter 39 - Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Eight Gates Formation 

In the days that followed, Jin lived a fulfilling life…

  During the day, he studied ninja history at the Ninja Academy; after school, he received private lessons in ninjutsu from Yamada; and at night, he trained in taijutsu with Mighty at home. Although it was hard work, Jin could feel his strength rapidly increasing!

  "Hmm, my Earth Release: Wall wasn't perfect enough today."

  Jin pondered as he walked into the house. "Next time, I'll try increasing my chakra by about one-fifth…"

  Thinking this, Jin took off his clothes and casually looked at Mighty: "Uncle Mighty, what are we doing today? Push-ups or sit-ups?"

  To Jin's surprise, Mighty shook his head seriously.

  "No training today?"

 Jin knew that once the Might Clan's special training began, it was rain or shine.

  What was going on today?

  "Little Jin, you have great talent!"

 Jin shrugged indifferently; he knew this even without Mighty saying it.

  Even without the system, his soul, honed from two lifetimes, was far stronger than that of ordinary people…

  "So… I think it's time to teach you this taijutsu!"

  As he spoke, Mighty pulled a dazzling golden scroll from his robes.

  "Could this be… the Eight Gates?"

  Before even taking the scroll, Jin couldn't help but swallow hard.

  The only thing Mighty would treasure so much was the Eight Gates!

  Jin's hands trembled as he unfurled the dazzling golden scroll. The conspicuous Eight Gates made him hold his breath.

  It really was the Eight Gates!

  Although Jin believed Mighty wouldn't hold back and would eventually teach him the Eight Gates, when that day actually arrived, Jin was still uncontrollably excited…

  Although the Eight Gates was only an A-rank ninjutsu,

  even inferior to Kakashi's Lightning Blade…

  the two were completely different!

  Lightning Blade might be strong, but placed among the forbidden S-rank ninjutsu, it seemed rather mediocre.

  For ordinary ninjas, the Eight Gates might be a useless technique, only worth a thousand casualties, merely an A-rank ninjutsu. But for ninjas like Might Guy and Rock Lee, whose talent lies in hard work, the Eight Gates is undoubtedly a forbidden technique among forbidden techniques!

  Otherwise, there wouldn't have been the domineering Night Guy kick that crippled Six Paths Madara...

  Open, Rest, Life, Injury, Enclosure, View, Shock, Death!

  Opening the catalog, the Eight Gates are clearly listed. Flipping further, the Outer Lotus, Inner Lotus, Morning Peacock, Daytime Tiger, and even the legendary Night Guy are all quietly listed after their corresponding Open gates.

  This is a complete inheritance, and Jin has reason to believe that this is the most precious taijutsu inheritance in the Naruto world!

  Such a precious thing, whoever obtains it, would never be willing to give it up for even a second.

  But Mighty gave it to Jin, an abandoned child he had only known for less than two months...

  "Why?"

  Jin couldn't help but look up, his eyes a little sore: "Why do you trust me so much?"

  However, Mighty did not answer Jin. Because he had already turned away to brew herbs…

  Perhaps in Mighty's eyes, such a legacy was only natural!

  "Fool…"

  Although moved, Jin was no longer an naive child. If he wanted to repay Mighty, he absolutely needed power!

  After adjusting his mindset, Jin seriously studied the Eight Gates scroll in his hand…

  According to the manga, Lee could already open five gates when he participated in the Chunin Exams. Although the price of opening five gates was crippling, Jin believed that with his current physique, no less than a Chunin's, he should be able to open at least four gates.

  The Eight Gates primarily tests the user's physical body; the use of chakra is much simpler…

  "First Gate—Life Gate!"

 Jin circulated his chakra in his mind according to the cloud diagram on the scroll. With each step the chakra advanced, the slight stinging pain increased. This feeling was somewhat similar to the concept of the "Pulse Activation" in Chinese legends. When Jin completed the circulation according to the cloud diagram, the stinging sensation reached its limit. In a moment, Jin felt as if his head had "exploded"!

  When he regained consciousness, both his speed and strength had been comprehensively enhanced!

  The "Gate of Life," with 100% development of his brain region, allowed him to now unleash 100% of his body's power!
