Might Guy, reporting for duty!
At this moment, his eyes were as sharp as a wolf's, and blue steam billowed around him, emanating an aura that changed the expressions of everyone present.
Seeing this, Kakashi immediately said, "Guy, go back."
"This has nothing to do with you. There's no need for you to get involved."
This was his own revenge; even if he failed and died, he would accept it.
Might Guy, however, was different!
He couldn't drag him into this.
But, in response.
Might Guy merely gave a thumbs-up and said without hesitation.
"Father told me that the Eight Gates are only opened for the sake of protection!"
"Kakashi is my most important friend. Even if it means losing my life, I will protect him to the end. That way, even if I die, I will leave behind proof that I lived as a man."
"Konoha's Noble Blue Beast, burn — youth!"
Kakashi had a splitting headache.
His eyes flickered slightly at the sight of Might Guy before him.
He used to think his life was a tragedy, with all the most important people in his life dead. Now, looking back, he realized he still had one friend.
A friend who would defy Konoha Leadership and still be willing to help him!
Meanwhile, on the other side.
All Root members subconsciously looked at Danzo.
Danzo's eyes narrowed slightly, and he immediately ordered, "Kill them, move out!"
Almost instantly.
As Danzo spoke, the Root personnel moved.
They didn't understand 'protection' or 'bonds'; Danzo's orders were their highest principle, so they unhesitatingly charged at the two.
'Leaf Great Strength Whirlwind!'
'Leaf Great Whirlwind!'
"Youthful Dynamic Prelude!"
Under the enhancement of the Seventh Gate, Might Guy was terrifyingly strong.
Any Ninjutsu or technique from the Root members was kicked away by Might Guy before they could even form hand signs.
However.
Might Guy held back!
Even though Danzo had said 'kill them,' Might Guy still considered everyone his comrade. All he wanted was to rescue his best friend Kakashi; he didn't truly want to kill these 'Village' comrades.
But, unfortunately.
The Root members clearly didn't appreciate it.
Even though they were severely wounded, they still struggled to get up.
They endured the pain, crawling to stab the Kunai in their hands directly into the throat of the incapacitated Kakashi.
Might Guy was enraged!
Just as that Root member was about to stab Kakashi to death with a Kunai, Might Guy completely abandoned the term 'Village comrade' in his heart, and mercilessly kicked that Root member to death.
Subsequently.
He took only a dozen seconds to instantly kill over a dozen Root members, making Danzo's heart bleed.
Damn it.
Uchiha Jin had already almost wiped out the Root members, and now so many of the personnel he had just recalled from outside were killed by this idiot Might Guy.
So, he made his move!
'Summoning Jutsu: Baku!'
An elephant-like summoning beast appeared. Accompanied by a low elephant roar, the Baku's trunk created a huge suction force, and its massive hooves lifted high, clearly intending to crush Might Guy with its enormous size.
'Daytime Tiger!'
A powerful air cannon in the shape of a tiger formed, carrying an overwhelming surge of energy, directly smashing the Baku into a mist of blood.
Yes!
The Baku didn't even have time to end its summoning before it was directly blown apart by Might Guy's punch.
"What? Damn it!"
"How can this Might Guy be so powerful?"
"..."
Danzo was dumbfounded.
As a Konoha Elder, he had naturally heard of Might Guy, this taijutsu idiot.
But, in reality.
He had never taken him seriously, but the power the opponent unleashed now completely shocked him.
Undoubtedly, absolute Kage-level!
But, damn it.
How could this idiot Might Guy be Kage-level?
Even Hiruzen Sarutobi wouldn't be a match for this brat, would he?
However, then.
He decided that the best strategy was to flee, adhering to the spirit of 'where there's life, there's hope.' Without another word, he immediately began to escape into the distance.
Yes!
He felt no pressure in running away; after all, for the future of the Village, he had to endure humiliation and survive.
If he were to die, the Village would have no future.
Therefore, everything for Konoha!
Two minutes later.
All the Root members present were killed by Might Guy. He then carried the weakened Kakashi and headed towards the Village.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Looking at Might Guy, who was weak all over after closing the Eight Gates but still carrying him, Kakashi's eyes became extremely complex.
Honestly, he really wanted to die!
He felt that living was too meaningless, which was the real reason for his actions tonight.
To put it plainly.
He just wanted to actively seek death!
It would be best if he could kill Danzo, but it didn't really matter if he couldn't.
Now, however, it was different!
Might Guy's appearance shattered his thoughts.
Even if he didn't think for himself, he had to be responsible for his 'best friend' in front of him.
Their attack on Danzo tonight had clearly completely alienated them from Konoha Leadership.
Who in Konoha could protect them now?
On one hand, Jiraiya and Tsunade were not in the Village. Even if they were, Kakashi wouldn't dare to trust them; their past had already proven that they were not worth gambling on.
The Senju Clan, Nawaki, Kato Dan, and even his teacher Minato Namikaze... neither of them managed to protect anyone!
When it came to the life of his best friend Might Guy, considering that this guy was still a naive idiot, he absolutely couldn't gamble on that chance.
Other Ninja Clanss?
They could barely protect themselves, let alone shelter the two of them.
What to do?
At this moment, the only thing Kakashi could think of was the Uchiha Clan!
But... should he really do that?
Kakashi fell into thought, and as he saw them getting closer to the Village, he finally spoke hoarsely.
"Guy, don't go to my house!"
"What?"
Might Guy was instantly stunned by Kakashi's words.
But, in response.
Kakashi had no intention of explaining, merely stating calmly, "Go to the Uchiha Clan Compound!"
"Why?" Might Guy looked bewildered.
Kakashi pondered for a moment before saying in a serious tone, "Right now, only the Uchiha might be able to protect us both."
"But..." Might Guy still wanted to speak.
After all, he wasn't truly an idiot; Kakashi clearly didn't trust the Village.
Honestly... he had originally planned to report to Hokage-sama directly after taking Kakashi home.
Kakashi's words naturally made him conflicted.
But before he could finish, Kakashi cut him off.
"Guy, trust me!"
"Alright."
Might Guy sighed.
Although he was still a bit reluctant in his heart, he ultimately chose to trust his best friend.
And so... the two headed straight for the Uchiha Clan Compound!
