Naruto: Konoha’s Kanpu

A lazy man wearing a green vest and carrying a long sword on his back strolled around the corner. It was Gekko Hayate, one of the eight Great Protector Elders of Gekko Clan.

Hayate frowned slightly when he saw Karin’s figure, and appeared beside her in a flicker: “What’s wrong?”

“Hey, it is the younger brother of Kanpū-sensei.” Naruto waved casually, “Hello!”

He often visited Kanpū’s house, so he was quite familiar with Hayate.

“Naruto, you're still as reckless as ever. My brother’s education really has some serious problems.” Hayate recalled past experiences with a sympathetic look, reaching out to ruffle Naruto’s hair.

“Second brother, stop messing around. This old man is a spy Shinobi!!!” Karin hurriedly pointed to Shinno and shouted.

“A spy?”

Hayate's eyes flickered. Gripping the hilt of his sword behind him with his right hand, he stared fiercely at the old man opposite him, “Who are you?”

“You don't need to know my identity. Just hand over that brat to me.” Shinno smirked and turned into an afterimage and rushed towards Naruto.

Hayate snorted coldly and immediately drew his blade, and slashed at Shinno.

Clang!

With a crisp sound of metal clashing, the kunai on Shinno’s left hand blocked Hayate's sword, while his right hand pressed down on Naruto's shoulder like a chicken claw.

‘Son of Yondaime Hokage, captured!’

Shinno’s spirits soared, but immediately afterwards, he saw a wave of thick fog emanating from Naruto.

Shinno didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly grasped Naruto’s shoulders tightly. But for a moment, he felt an extremely delicate touch in his hand, as if he was holding a piece of jade!

He looked closely, only to see a charming figure in the smoke, flirting with him, winking… and blowing a flying kiss at him.

Pfft!

Shinno, a man in his forties, couldn't handle this. At that time, his nose started bleeding and he staggered back.

“Naruto…you’re disgusting!!” Karin was initially extremely nervous when she saw Naruto being caught, but when she saw him… ‘Ugh, pervert!’

Sasuke's face twitched as well, unable to bear looking directly at him: “Naruto, your taste is as heavy as ever!”

Even the mature Hayate couldn't help but steal a few glances, ‘This young man has a good figure~’

Bang!

As light smoke rose again, Naruto returned to his original appearance, standing there with his hands on his hips and laughing loudly: “Hahahaha, how is it? My newly created Sexy Technique is really extraordinary, right? Hahahaha…”

‘Bastard!!’

Shinno wiped off his nosebleed, and glared at Naruto fiercely, ‘How dare he embarrassed me so much… I must strip him naked!’

A blur appeared again, and Shinno once again reached out to grab Naruto.

“Don’t use the same move in front of me.”

With a clear shout, a cold sword aura suddenly swept from Naruto's side, sealing off Shinno’s path forward!

‘Konoha-Style Kenjutsu?’

Shinno’s brow furrowed, then he remembered that Naruto had referred to this guy as ‘the younger brother of Kanpū-sensei’ earlier.

‘Kanpū…’

‘Konoha-Style Kenjutsu…’

‘Could it be?!’

He quickly took a step back to avoid the sword aura, and urgently asked: “Who is Gekko Kanpū to you?”

“Oh, you know my brother?” Hayate looked surprised, ‘Could it be that he's an acquaintance of Big brother?’

“I know…of course I know…”

Shinno’s mouth twisted, his facial muscles grimacing, veins popping out, and his eyes reddening, “That little bastard… I trusted him so much back then, but he actually stole my Forbidden Technique… I, I…”

‘Back then?’

‘Forbidden Technique?’

Hayate raised an eyebrow and asked: “Are you talking about Body Revival Technique?”

“???”

Shinno’s eyes widened: “How did you know?!”

“Oh, my brother is the type to litter everywhere. He throws used things into the backyard corridor.”

Hayate’s face showed the helpless expression of his brother’s tardiness, and sighed, “It's a good thing his younger brother is here to help him clean up.”

Shinno stiffened all over, then trembled with cold rage: “He… he actually treated the Forbidden Jutsu I spent decades creating as trash… Unforgivable… Unforgivable…”

Creak, creak…

Shinno gritted his teeth, suppressing the boiling anger in his chest, and asked with a low growl: “Tell me, where is that little bastard now?!”

“In the sky.” Hayate said with a slight smile.

Shinno instinctively looked up, only to see a silent firework exploding on the sky above him.

Shinno’s pupils contracted, and in that moment, the raging fire in his chest suddenly dissipated.

‘Oh no, I've been deceived!’

Shinno cursed inwardly.

Just now, he had let his anger cloud his judgment, foolishly asking the enemy for information. He felt like he had lost his wits!

Now that he had calmed down, he immediately made the right decision, which is to take Naruto away in one go!

Because Naruto was not only the son of the Yondaime Hokage, but also a student of Gekkou Kanpū!

‘This is getting interesting!’

Shinno knew that time was of the essence, and if he delayed any longer, the Konoha’s Anbu would come knocking at his door to check his identity, so he decisively took action.

‘Gate of Opening, Gate of Healing, Gate of Life, Gate of Pain, Gate of Limit…’ Shinno opened five gates in one go, and the Chakra inside his body instantly went berserk. Even the skin on his body showed a purplish color under the rapid Chakra pressure, looking hideously abnormal.

“Oh, are we finally fighting? Let me knock you out!!” Naruto, seeing Shinno’s stance, immediately got excited and rushed forward eagerly.

“Idiot, it's dangerous!!” Karin sensed the sudden surge of Chakra in Shinno’s body, and paled with fear.

Sasuke also noticed the danger and subconsciously activated his Sharingan, staring straight at Shinno, trying to intimidate him.

But at this moment, Shinno only had Naruto in his sight, and he ignored the rest of the trash!

“Bone-Crushing Fist!”

After opening the five gates, Shinno fiercely threw a punch.

The fist exploded through the air, emitting a piercing sound of thunder, suddenly descending on Naruto's right shoulder.

‘You little brat, I'll break your right shoulder bone first!’

“There is a flaw.”

At this moment, a dazzling sword light, tinged with thunder, suddenly descended from the sky.

Konoha-Style – Thunder Dance!

Shinno’s brow furrowed tightly, ‘This guy is even more annoying than I expected!’

‘This sword… With a body empowered by five gates, I can't block this sword.’

‘This guy’s Konoha-Style Kenjutsu is very powerful!’

At the critical moment, Shinno paused, changing his Bone-Crushing Fist to a sweep, aiming a punch at the airborne Hayate, while also activating the sixth gate, the Gate of View.

Boom!

The flow of Chakra within Shinno’s body surged again, and even the wind pressure of the Bone-Crushing Fist carried a faint green Chakra glow.

Shinno has now mastered the Eight-Gates, but he had achieved it through clever means like activating the gates through Body Revival Technique, so even though he opened the sixth gate, there was no prominent ‘intimidating’ green Chakra cloak.

Bang!

With a dull thud, Shinno’s Bone-Crushing Fist collided with Hayate’s Thunder Dance, erupting into a ripple of thunderous light that rapidly spread in all directions.

“Karin, take Naruto and Sasuke away!”

Hayate sensed the strength of Shinno through this sword, so he immediately leaped back with the help of his sword, while also kicking Naruto behind him.

“Second brother, you bastard!!!” Naruto was furious and yelled in mid-air.

Karin and Sasuke quickly rushed up to catch him, then dragged him away.
