Naruto: My Chill Life in the Hyuga Main House

"Lord Satori Hyūga's traveling partner sure has great stamina. I haven't heard him complain about being tired once," a Guard Ninja took a breath mid-run, surprised as he watched Might Guy sprinting ahead.

They had run such a long distance, yet the other showed no sign of shortness of breath or being drenched in sweat.

What's more, he was carrying a heavy load on his back without it slowing him down at all.

As an elite Jonin-level ninja, even he himself felt exhausted after running nonstop through most of the night.

But when he turned to glance at Satori Hyūga, he was equally shocked and began to doubt whether his own skills had declined.

Satori had only recently graduated from the Academy, wasn't even an adult yet, and was just eight years old. How could his stamina surpass that of a grown man?

As he began doubting himself, he noticed his comrade discreetly catching his breath, quietly letting out a sigh of relief.

So it wasn't that his strength had decreased—it was those two whose physical conditioning was abnormally monstrous.

He couldn't imagine how they trained. After running all night without showing any sign of fatigue, they were practically inhuman.

Just as they were about to leave the dense forest behind, several kunai rained down from above, cutting off their escape route.

"Not good! Enemy ambush!"

Upon seeing this, the two Guard Ninjas immediately jumped in front of Satori Hyūga, shielding his body.

Their professionalism shone through—while protecting Satori's safety, they simultaneously activated their Byakugan to confirm the enemy's numbers and strength.

With the Byakugan active, scanning several kilometers outward from their position, they instantly identified the attackers.

Three Jonin and five Chunin scattered throughout the woods formed a complete encirclement around the four of them.

The enemies silently stood atop the treetops, kunai in hand, motionless and waiting. No attack came, nor did they flee.

The leader coldly announced, "Step out of bounds, and you die."

His voice was bone-chillingly icy, as if laced with anger.

After lurking here for three days, getting eaten alive by mosquitoes, anyone would be furious, wouldn't they?

Satori narrowed his eyes upon seeing the silent appearance of these enemies. Activating his Byakugan, veins bulged on his forehead as he carefully examined them.

These foes were mysterious and powerful, blocking the secret passage route of the Hyūga Clan.

It was clear that the enemy had a spy embedded within the Hyūga Clan, leaking details of their travel route.

Few people in Konoha could manage something like this, and immediately, one figure came to mind—Kage Danzō.

Most likely, only he had the means to act so silently and deploy this many people for some underhanded scheme.

Satori didn't know why Danzō wanted to intercept him, but judging from the situation, it seemed he merely wanted to prevent Satori from leaving the village.

Before he finished thinking, the Guard Ninja, furious, immediately engaged the enemy in combat.

Seeing this, Might Guy's eyes lit up. He dropped his heavy load and cheerfully looked at Satori.

"Boss, I've been training hard with all those resources—let me show you what I've got!"

With abundant resources available, Might Guy trained in peace, improving significantly compared to before.

Even without activating the Eight Gates, he had notable physical combat prowess.

Once the Eight Gates were activated, his power skyrocketed beyond comparison.

Looking at Might Guy's expectant gaze, Satori Hyūga nodded and said, "Go ahead, just be careful not to get tricked."

"I won't fall for any tricks, Boss. Rest assured!"

As Satori gave his approval, Might Guy immediately sprang into action like a Husky breaking free from its chain, charging straight onto the battlefield.

"My youth is burning! Take this fiery passion of mine!"

He flashed a wide grin, revealing a dazzling set of pearly whites that practically glowed in the dark.

Throwing caution aside, he fought like a tiger descending from the mountains—kicking away a Chunin right at the start, then punching a Jonin so hard he flew backward.

His actions successfully drew enemy attention.

"Who the hell is this guy? He wasn't in our intelligence," one Jonin muttered grimly.

"He doesn't look like a member of the Inuzuka Clan by his eyes alone. Could he be some hidden Taijutsu expert from the Hyūga Clan?" another Jonin speculated.

At that moment, a Chunin interrupted, "You guys really don't recognize him? Isn't this the same guy who ran around the village like a madman all day long?"

As soon as he said it, they all suddenly recognized Might Guy by his iconic green jumpsuit.

One Root member even stared in shock, disbelievingly muttering, "Isn't this guy supposed to be a forever-Genin (eternally unranked ninja)? How could he possess such powerful Taijutsu abilities?"

Might Guy's green jumpsuit once stood out as a unique symbol of Konoha, but after being recruited by Satori, he had gradually faded from public view.

Now reminded, they suddenly recalled who he was.

After all, they were all villagers. Everyone had heard of his name through various missions.

But practically every Konoha ninja had never actually fought alongside or against Might Guy before.

That was mostly because his strange old-fashioned outfit made forming teams difficult, resulting in him remaining unranked for years.

Unshackled and growing more energized with every strike, Might Guy unconsciously unlocked the Eight Gates during the heat of battle.

The Nine-Binding Seal served as iron chains on this unleashed beast, amplifying the power of the Eight Gates far beyond normal levels.

[Eight Gates, UNLEASH!]

After letting out a cheerful laugh, emerald-green chakra surrounded Might Guy in visible waves, forcing Root members to hastily retreat.

After opening six gates in one breath, his power surged dramatically—surpassing the strength of ordinary Jonins.

Facing Root, Might Guy's single-minded determination treated them all as enemies, unleashing deadly force without hesitation.

His unbreakable Iron Fist surged with immense force, creating explosive booms as it tore through the air before smashing into a Jonin.

"Not good!" The Root Jonin turned pale with terror, beads of sweat forming on his brow before hastily gathering chakra and raising an arm to block.

Might Guy moved too fast, giving the opponent no time to cast a Ninjutsu—forcing him to rely solely on his body to defend.

CRACK!

The man flew backward like a cannonball, his arm now hanging limply at his side.

"Waaahhh! This… this is the power of YOUTH!" Might Guy became so thrilled tears streamed down his face—the first time he'd ever defeated an enemy by releasing his full strength.

And this opponent had been a formidable Jonin. How could he possibly hold back his excitement?

Turning around, he rushed toward a nearby Chunin, repeating the same devastating move effortlessly.

The Root ninja, witnessing this scene, quickly cast the Substitution Jutsu out of fear and fled, unwilling to engage in battle.

As Might Guy scratched his head in confusion, Satori Hyūga began directing from the sidelines using his Byakugan.

"Might Guy, there's someone hiding behind the tree slightly to your left."

Following the orders without hesitation, Might Guy attacked exactly as instructed, carrying out each instruction with perfect precision.

Seeing Might Guy's overwhelming power in action, the enemy leader glared at Satori Hyūga with ill intent. However, since Might Guy kept circling around Satori, he had no chance to strike.

With his subordinates being steadily defeated, the leader finally gave the order with a sigh of resignation: immediate retreat.

This kind of power was clearly beyond their capabilities. Fortunately, their mission was just to stall—not to actually defeat them here in the forest.
