Besides these six rewards, the next two are the main focus!
Genjutsu: Darkness Passing Technique!
A genjutsu recorded in the Scroll of Seals, developed by the Forbidden Jutsu Fanatic, the Second Hokage Tobirama Senju!
In the realm of genjutsu, aside from the Uchiha Clan's Sharingan genjutsu, this technique ranks among the best; its intensity is extremely high!
It can be said to be a very good reward.
And finally, the highlight of highlights!
Taijutsu: Eight Gates Released Formation!
The specific origin is unknown.
Some say it was researched by the Forbidden Jutsu Fanatic Senju Tobirama, but he was never seen using it in the original work.
Some say it was developed by Might Guy's father, Might Duy, but that doesn't seem reliable either.
Looking at Might Duy's "big brain" appearance, he doesn't seem like the type who would develop Ninjutsu.
So putting the origin aside, this taijutsu can basically be called the limit a normal Ninja can reach without cheating!
Might Duy used this Ninjutsu as a Genin to fight one against seven, scattering the Hidden Mist Village's famous boy band, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.
Leaving some dead and others wounded.
Rock Lee used this taijutsu to solo the Ichibi Jinchuriki and then solo Kimimaro.
One loss and one win.
The most impressive one has to be Might Guy, who used the Eight Gates to first crush Kisame, beating Shark Face until he became withdrawn.
Then, on the final battlefield, he furiously opened the Eight Gates and kicked through the ribs of Uchiha Madara, who was the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki.
He almost kicked out the series finale!
It was truly terrifying.
"No way, I have to try it!"
Ye Chen's heart was burning with excitement. After claiming all the rewards, he tossed the eyesore of a green vest and the Kunai aside, while tucking the cash securely into his pocket.
Then he opened the system space and climbed inside.
The system space was equivalent to Ye Chen's portable space, accessible at any time.
Now it had become Ye Chen's training ground.
"Fire Release: Dragon Fire Technique!"
"Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique!"
"Wind Release: Great Wind Blow Technique!"
After using all three Ninjutsu he had just obtained, Ye Chen's Chakra was instantly depleted by one-fifth.
Among them, the Great Waterfall Technique consumed the most Chakra.
As expected of the signature move of Shark Face, the Tailless Jinchuriki.
Ordinary people really couldn't pull this off; even with Kage-level Chakra, Ye Chen could only use it five times.
But the effect of the Ninjutsu was still top-notch. The rewards given by the system were already at a highly proficient level as soon as he received them.
"Now, let's try the Eight Gates Released Formation!"
"First Gate: Gate of Opening, Open!"
Upon opening the first gate, Ye Chen felt a strong surge of Chakra gushing from his dantian and spreading throughout his body!
After carefully sensing his body, Ye Chen nodded in satisfaction.
"Not bad. Opening just the first gate increased my Chakra by a quarter. As expected of the Eight Gates Released Formation!"
Don't think a quarter of Chakra isn't much; one must remember that Ye Chen's own Chakra is Kage-level!
Increasing his Kage-level Chakra by a quarter with just the first gate already made Ye Chen very satisfied.
Generally speaking, the Eight Gates Released Formation does not provide a fixed numerical value.
It's not an algorithm like adding a hundred points for opening the first gate and a thousand for the second.
Rather, it depends on an individual's constitution and their mastery of the Eight Gates Released Formation.
When Might Guy and Lee both open the first gate, the Chakra boost they receive is definitely vastly different; that goes without saying.
As for Ye Chen's body, after obtaining Kage-level Chakra, it was automatically honed to be extremely robust.
Opening the first gate, he only felt his muscles tighten slightly, without any sensation of pain.
"Second Gate: Gate of Healing! Open!"
"Third Gate: Gate of Life! Open!"
After opening two more gates in succession, Ye Chen felt his Chakra double!
In other words, the Chakra obtained from opening three gates is almost equivalent to that of a Kage-level powerhouse!
Of course, this is the boost he could get given that Ye Chen himself already possesses Kage-level Chakra.
For someone like Lee, the Chakra boost he gets from opening three gates would at most be at the Jonin level.
This is the difference in foundations!
"It's starting to hurt a bit."
Ye Chen felt his heart pounding incredibly fast, like a drum being beaten incessantly.
A slight pain also radiated from his muscles throughout his body; in terms of intensity, it was like being punched a few times.
"At this level, I can basically maintain it for a long time and use it as a standard state for combat."
Ye Chen sensed it carefully for a while and reached a conclusion.
The third gate is at a level his current body can accept; he can use it for extended periods during battle without harming himself.
This is still different from Might Guy; for Might Guy, opening five or six gates is as easy as eating a meal.
At most, he would be very exhausted afterward, but it wouldn't damage his body.
"Let's try again!"
"Fourth Gate: Gate of Pain! Open!"
"Fifth Gate: Gate of Limit! Open!"
"Holy crap, it hurts so much!"
Ye Chen opened two more gates in succession, but this time, upon reaching the fifth gate, pain surged through his entire body, causing him to cry out in agony.
His heart was thumping as if fitted with a motor, and the muscles all over his body began to tear; the pain was suddenly dozens of times more intense than when he opened the third gate!
"Damn, how does Might Guy do it? Opening five gates is like drinking water to him, and he can still talk and laugh."
Ye Chen thought of the scenes in the original work where Might Guy opened five gates and found it completely incomprehensible.
"Even Lee can open five gates to fight, yet here I am wanting to collapse on the ground after opening five."
Ye Chen didn't dare to experience it any further; he quickly deactivated the Eight Gates Released Formation and slumped onto the ground, gasping for air.
Fortunately, his body, tempered by powerful Chakra, had a very high tolerance, so it didn't cause him lasting damage.
However, after deactivating the Eight Gates Released Formation, the resulting exhaustion felt like he had pulled three all-nighters in a row.
Not a single drop left!
"As expected of a Ninjutsu that only taijutsu fanatics can use."
"In the original work, only Might Guy and Might Duy have opened all Eight Gates; among the others, only Lee has opened five."
"It seems the only other one is that guy Kakashi Hatake, who can open two gates."
"In other words, excluding Might Guy and Might Duy, I rank third among the practitioners of the Eight Gates Released Formation!"
Ye Chen comforted himself inwardly, taking it as a bit of self-consolation.
After some idle thoughts, his body had mostly recovered; after all, he had Kage-level Chakra.
Chakra, as a concept, sounds similar to internal energy in Chinese martial arts.
But in reality, they are completely different concepts.
Chakra is something obtained by Ninjas through training; the stronger a Ninja's physical fitness, the greater their amount of Chakra.
Correspondingly, the more Chakra one has, the better their physical fitness.
For example, Ninjas of the Uzumaki Clan are born with large amounts of Chakra, so the clan has a very resilient constitution.
For instance, Uzumaki Naruto.
The same goes for the Senju Clan.
In contrast, the Uchiha Clan is born with less Chakra than the previous two.
Consequently, Uchiha Itachi was sickly and nearly worked himself to death without even much happening.
Uchiha Sasuke is stronger, but only to a limited extent, falling within the average range.
Kakashi Hatake, with his Uchiha Sharingan, is practically the textbook example in naruto of Chakra being inversely proportional to strength.
Therefore, when Ye Chen obtained Kage-level Chakra, his body was also modified by the system, becoming a very resilient constitution.
This is also the reason why he could open the Eight Gates Released Formation up to the fifth gate.
To add one more thing, compared to Chakra, Sage Art energy is more like the concept of internal energy or mana.
Whether it's the cultivation method—sitting cross-legged on the ground to sense the natural energy drifting in the air and drawing it into the body.
Or the settings related to nature—it's very similar to the concept of cultivators sensing heaven and earth and incorporating it into themselves.
