Chapter 687: Chapter – 680 Learning Eight Inner Gates III
Looking at the orange hue of the sunset in the distance, Guy smiled his iconic smile, "What a fulfilling day it was… Kuroto, and Kakashi, how are the two of you doing? Were the two of you able to find the secret of opening the Gate of Life?"
Both Kuroto and Kakashi did not pay attention to Guy, they were stuck in their thoughts.
Both Kuroto and Kakashi were able to open the Gate of Healing with not too much difficulty, however, when the matter of opening the Gate of Life came, they were stuck in a bottleneck. Even after they struggled for the entire day, neither of them made any progress.
Seeing the two strugglings, Guy said with a smug face, "I already told you that if you want to master the Eight Inner Gates Formation, you must be prepared for struggle, with talent alone one can only go so far… mastering the Eight Inner Gates Formation purely based on talent is impossible!"
Kuroto said, "Sigh, the difficulty of opening the Gate of Life is indeed much higher than I imagined, it seems it's going to take some to open it… well, the Sun is about to set, let's finish here for today, I will do my own research on the Gate of Life, and discuss it with you guys next time."
Kakashi nodded while looking at the setting Sun, then said to Guy, "Guy, I have really bothered you today… But still thanks, for giving your time today. Now I know the training method for opening the Gate of Life… For the next part, I will train it myself, and find you if I face any problem."
Guy hurriedly warned him, "Hey you two… don't mess around after going back… training and exercise should also be done in moderation, both of you need to give your bodies some rest else your core will get weak."
Kuroto chuckled, "Don't worry, I understand my limits, and won't overexert myself."
Kakashi replied, "Me too."
Seeing that neither of the two seemed to heed his warning, Guy said with a sigh, "You two.. be careful… Truth be told, the speed that the two of you have shown in opening the first two gates is already amazing, no doubt, the two of are worthy of being unrivaled geniuses… but it is also necessary that the two of you listen to me.
The Eight Inner Gates… This technique is different from all the other techniques… It requires time… hurrying to open the gates won't do you any good, instead, it will weaken you, and even if you both manage to somehow open all the gates, you won't be able to display the complete potential of this technique unless you both give your body the time it needs to adapt.
So, my suggestion is to take it slowly and steadily, this will allow your bodies to adapt your foundation will be stronger, and the two of you will be able to go farther on this road."
Kuroto said lightly, "I see… I'll keep your words in mind."
Guy nodded to him, then looked at Kakashi.
In fact, Guy wasn't really worried about Kuroto, he knew that Kuroto was the most sensible among the three and he won't do anything that would harm himself and his future, but Kakashi on the other hand… Well, Kakashi sort of worries him… Guy fears that Kakashi would overexert himself, way beyond the limit of what he can handle… This is why Guy couldn't help but say to Kakashi, "Kakashi, your current state worries me… I know you are carrying it yourself and don't seem to want to involve others… but…"
Facing Guy's concern, Kakashi bowed his head and chose to remain silent. In his opinion, only he can solve this matter…
Seeing that Kakashi didn't seem to have any intention of saying anything, Guy said, "Alright… If you don't want to share it, then, you don't have to… I just want to remind you that we are friends… We will always be there to help you…"
Kakashi nodded lightly, "I understand." then without giving Guy any chance to say anything he disappeared with a silver flash.
Looking at the spot where Kakashi was present until an instant ago, Guy sighed…
Kuroto said, "Don't worry about him… Kakashi is not a child, he knows what he is doing… probably."
Guy nodded, "I hope so."
Kuroto added, "Focus on the positive side, he at least has a goal which is better than doing nothing and having no goal."
Guy nodded, "Yeah, you are right."
Kuroto nodded, then said, "Alright then… I will see you next time."
With that, both of them separated and went to their homes.
Arriving at his home, Kuroto carefully sorted out his experience of opening the first two gates, and all the information he managed to gain about the third gate.
Based on his current strength, Kuroto could only manage to open the first two gates… as for the third gate, it will indeed take a lot of time.
Kuroto thought to himself, "Guy was right… I can't rush it… Mastering the Eight Inner Gates formation must be taken slowly and steadily… If I rush it, then the effect won't be as good as I want it to be."
Well, all that aside, Kuroto believes that even if he doesn't rush it, his speed will still be very good, "My chakra is superior compared to most, and my physique has also surpassed others, my body should adapt faster than others…"
Thinking so, Kuroto squinted his eyes and estimated the time it would take him to completely master the technique and open all the eight gates.
If his analysis and estimation are correct, then it should take about a week to open the Gate of Life, after that, it would take about three to four weeks to open the Gate of Pain, then approximately three months to open the Gate of Limit… The sixth gate, that is the Gate of View will take about seven to eight months, and the Gate of Wonder will take about two years.
As for the gate of Death, Kuroto isn't sure how much time would it take to open it, it is difficult to calculate based on his understanding.
Now that Kuroto understands the training method to open the Eight Gates, the thing he has to focus on is working hard and actually opening all of them.
To this end, Kuroto plans to use his privileges as the principal of the Ninja Academy and set up a personal training field in the woods around the academy campus.
The reason is so that Kuroto can continue his training at the academy.
Of course, if Kuroto is being honest, he doesn't really need this training field as he can always disappear from the academy, but, still, it's better to have it, and carry out this training while staying inside the campus… After all, it's no secret that he is learning the Eight Inner Gates, so why to the trouble of carrying out the training somewhere else when he can always train it here?

Chapter 688: Chapter – 681 Taijutsu Training… Or…
The students of Class A were brought to the training field for their regular taijutsu training, and as usual, currently, they were either warming up their bodies or thinking of who to carry out their training against.
It has already been announced that at the end of this month, the academy will have an assessment to test the taijutsu prowess of all the students, so all the children were nervous and serious about it.
What happened after the previous assessment has not been forgotten by them.
The results of the previous assessment were pasted on the academy's notice board allowing all the students in the academy as well as the villagers to know everyone's scores.
The fact that Rock Lee scored last, and the fact that he couldn't even perform such a simple Jutsu is now a well-known fact throughout the village.
Rock Lee was mocked and made fun of for his last rank… His experience was very tragic, and no one seems to want to go through that same experience.
Ranking last in the assessments has become a form of punishment that no one wants to get, that's why everyone is extremely serious about the assessments.
Whether it is rambunctious Uzumaki Naruto, extremely lazy Nara Shikamaru, or the self-willed princess Shion, none of them dared to underestimate the academy's assessment and did all they could to train for it in order to perform better in it for they feared the consequences.
Standing in one corner of the training field, Neji swept his eyes across the training field… He was searching for a suitable training partner.
Taijutsu is originally his specialty, and recently he has been carrying out intensive training and has made progress by leaps and bounds so there is hardly anyone among the current trainees who can match him. This left Neji in a bit of a dilemma as he couldn't think of any suitable training part–… and just then, his gaze met with another kid who had the same thoughts in his mind, "Sasuke?"
Seeing Sasuke also looking at himself, Neji thought to himself, 'Train with Sasuke?'
Although Neji felt that this wasn't the time to train with Sasuke, seeing that there was no other option before him, he didn't mind it… Sasuke is indeed the best training partner he can have, so without thinking too much, he activated his Byakugan… intentions were clear…
However, before that thought could go any further, Neji was distracted… Perhaps it would be better to say that his attention was attracted by something else…
That something else is a vastly deep and concentrated chakra… And it unexpectedly appeared in the field of vision of his Byakugan.
"This Chakra…?" he muttered with a startled expression and subconsciously stepped backward in shock.
Never in his life has Neji ever seen such a strong chakra… Of course, Neji hasn't seen the chakra of too many people, but among all the people whose chakra he has seen, this is the first time he has seen such a chakra that made his hair tingle.
Neji looked in the direction of the chakra source and muttered to himself in shock and confusion, "I am afraid that even Patriarch's chakra is nothing in comparison… heck, let alone the Patriarch, even the Chakra of the three Sannin, and the chakra of Hokage-sama is nothing in comparison… just whose chakra is it really?"
Seeing that Neji was no longer paying attention to him, instead, he was looking somewhere in the forest with a dazed expression, Sasuke frowned… he ignored the pair of Sakura and Ino who were swooning over him, and walked over to Neji's side with his hands in his pockets, "What's wrong with you Neji? Aren't you going to train with me? By the way, what are you looking at?"
Neji shook his head, "Nothing…" then added with a solemn expression, "I am afraid I can't be your training partner today… please train with someone else, there is a very important matter I must take care of!"
Leaving such words, Neji no longer paid attention to Sasuke and hurried inside the forest.
Such a powerful chakra is way beyond his imagination… Neji believes that he must go and see for himself the person who owns such a terrifying chakra…!
If he is honest, it wasn't just his curiosity… Neji is also sort of worried. For some reason, even if he is able to see that chakra, he isn't able to sense it, which is a matter of concern… heck, let alone sense, for some reason he isn't even able to see the color of this chakra so he is unable to recognize the person who owns this chakra.
Moreover, the surroundings are way too calm… normally if such a powerful chakra were to appear, intense winds would start to blow all around… animals and birds would start to run away from the source… but the sky and the forest are normal… no heavy winds, no crying and panicked animals running away from the forest… This normality makes Neji very confused.
Therefore, he must go and verify…
Of course, he could have also chosen to inform the teachers about this, but that thought escaped his mind… and so here he is, running towards the forest.
Seeing Neji ignoring and running away, Sasuke was annoyed, "Hey Neji, come back here… Where the hell do you think you are going?"
But Neji didn't pay attention to Sasuke's words and continued ahead.
Annoyed, "Grrr…" Sasuke chased after him…
Seeing Sasuke coming after him, Neji asked him, "Why are you following me?"
Sasuke questioned back, "I should be the one asking the question here… where do you think you are going? Don't tell me you did this on purpose because you are afraid of losing?"
Neji said, "Me and run away from you? Oh, please Sasuke… You should know that when it comes to pure Taijutsu you are no match for me…"
Sasuke snorted, "When did you start assuming that I am no match for you in Taijutsu?"
Neji said, "I didn't assume anything… it's a fact!"
Sasuke said, "Well I say, it's not!"
Neji shook his head, "You can't deny what's true."
"I am an Uchiha, I can deny whatever I want…!" Sasuke said, then added, while activating his Sharingan, "And if you have any problem with that then why don't you prove me wrong?"
Neji didn't give a reply… instead, he came to a sudden stop.
Sasuke smirked, "What… you afraid now?"
"Shhh…!" Neji said, "Be quiet… and hide!" and tried to look ahead while hiding behind the tree.
Seeing Neji's actions, Sasuke finally felt that something was up… he quieted down and while hiding behind the same tree, he asked in a low voice, "Can you please explain what's going on? Earlier you were running, and now you are hiding… from what? I didn't see a there!"
Hearing Sasuke's words, Neji was taken aback, "You can't see that?"
Sasuke asked doubtfully, "See what?"
Neji became silent… and after a while of thinking, he realized, "It makes sense… there is a barrier around… this is why you can't see it with your Sharingan, but I can with my Byakugan…!"
Sasuke's face also turned serious, and he questioned, "Explain to me clearly… what exactly are you seeing?"
