"Hahoo."
Panting, with blood flowing from his nostrils and the corners of his mouth, Kenjiro stood on the shallow sea.
The clothes he was wearing on his upper body had completely disappeared, revealing his strong physique.
Just now, in that life-or-death situation, he used the secret technique of Hokuto Shinken, Mizukage Shin, to read the opponent's moves.
Eight Gates
It's a kind of "technique" that requires opening up acupoints in the body to become stronger.
For someone using it for the first time, it would be necessary to gradually open the doors, starting from the lowest level.
But because they were facing certain death, there was simply no time to slowly "savor" the secrets within.
Therefore, Kenjiro made a bold choice.
That is to forcibly create a higher "gate" by relying on "external forces".
That's right, he pressed his own acupoints.
Open Gate, Rest Gate, Life Gate, Injury Gate, Block Gate.
Using the unique "pressure point" technique of Hokuto Shinken, he is able to more easily open his meridians, making it easier to open the "door".
So much so that he instantly opened himself up to the level of "the fifth gate - the gate of closure".
The surge of power allowed him to withstand the lingering force of the day tiger.
The bloodstains on his body, besides those caused by Zhou Hu, were "side effects" from his self-stimulation of acupoints.
After all, for a special technique like the Eight Gates Formation, it would be far too overwhelming for a "beginner" to open five gates at once.
Even with Kenshiro's outstanding physique, such impulsiveness would still have some consequences.
But he had no regrets.
It turned out that opening all five doors at once was the right thing to do.
Otherwise, it would have been impossible for them to emerge unscathed from the attack of the daytime tiger.
The enemy before us possesses incredible power.
(but.)
Kenshiro, who had opened the fifth door, sensed it.
I am much stronger than before.
This technique is a perfect match for Fist of the North Star.
There was a leap in growth after only opening the fifth door.
The sixth, seventh, and eighth gates will likely be quite different.
I never expected that these acupoints would have such an effect.
(pity.)
If Toki were still alive, with his skills, he might have been able to master this technique.
After all, Kenjiro's understanding of acupoints was not as profound as his older brother's.
But the more he thought about it, the more he understood how superb the Eight Gates Formation was.
The person who invented this ingenious technique must be a master unlike any other in the world.
Compared to the two-thousand-year history of Hokuto Shinken, it's hard to imagine how long this martial art has been passed down.
It's important to understand that even a martial art like Hokuto Shinken doesn't claim that its understanding of acupoints is complete.
Just like the Eight Gates Formation, if Kenshiro hadn't met his match, he might never have been able to explore this field in his entire life.
This has nothing to do with strength, but rather with a kind of exploration and research.
Moreover, while the Eight Gates Formation may seem easy to learn, it is full of harsh physical trials.
It is quite "simple" yet powerful.
If he hadn't had a solid foundation built through rigorous training in the past, he might not have been able to do it so easily.
"Hahoo."
Breathing heavily, Kenjiro assumed a fighting stance, his nerves on edge.
The physical strain was greater than expected.
After all, it was a forced breakthrough of the meridians.
Blue Beast
Looking at the other party's appearance, which was enveloped in blue flames, Kenjiro could only describe it in this way.
"Able to learn the Eight Gates Formation simply by watching."
"Truly a genius."
Might Guy also assumed an attack stance, but one Day Tiger was not his limit.
He was surprised by the other person's talent.
It's important to know that while everyone meets the conditions for opening the Eight Gates Formation, not everyone can use it.
The principle behind it is that the Eight Gates Formation belongs to the category of "unconventional, overloaded, and extreme" performance.
It requires people to constantly hone their physical abilities so that each part and organ can adapt to the burden after being opened.
If the opponent can use it successfully, then it undoubtedly means that they are an excellent "physical skills" master.
The power unleashed by the Eight Gates varies depending on the user.
He was in the seventh gate, while his opponent was in the fifth gate.
Based on their previous performance, they may still have a chance to fight.
"drink!!"
"Ada!!"
This confrontation far surpasses any previous one.
"boom!!"
"Can't see it?!"
He rubbed his eyes, only able to faintly hear the sound of air exploding, and Kyogoku Makoto exclaimed in astonishment.
He couldn't even see the two people.
This also reflects how fast the battle was taking place.
"Well"
Da Qiao frowned, unable to grasp the current situation.
Even he could only barely catch glimpses of the fleeting afterimages.
It is conceivable that, faced with such an enemy, he might be defeated in an instant.
"Go! Go! Go!!"
"Can you see?"
"Huh? I can't see it, but what does it matter?"
Compared to Taichi, who has seen the world, Shin-chan is more easygoing and goes with the flow.
He didn't care whether he could see or not; he was just earnestly offering his support.
"I'm truly impressed by you."
That more innocent and pure expression made Taiyi feel that what he said was very true.
Yes
Even if you can't see, it doesn't matter, as long as you believe your "partner" will win.
……
"Tch, you can't blink at all, or you'll lose them immediately."
Looking out from the upper floor, Yusuke and Yagami, who were hiding elsewhere, shared the same feeling.
The fight between those two was simply beyond imagination.
The occasional splashes of water, dust, and bursts of air all signify the ongoing fierce battle.
"boom!!!"
"Snapped!!!"
"Well"
Really strong!
During the confrontation, Kenshiro couldn't help but admire the strength his opponent displayed.
He had clearly become even more powerful than before by using the power of the Musou Reincarnation and the Fifth Gate.
