"My cells are absorbing Natural Energy..."
Sarutobi Asuma was stunned.
It wasn't strange for cells to absorb Natural Energy, but in the past, his cells couldn't actively draw Natural Energy from the outside. He had to actively absorb Natural Energy into his body before it would be assimilated.
But now, Sarutobi Asuma wasn't proactively drawing Natural Energy into his body. Yet, the countless cells within him seemed to exert all their might, working together to draw Natural Energy into his body, then absorb and digest it.
This was a shift from active to passive!
Sarutobi Asuma was initially surprised, but his expression soon turned solemn.
Without heavily depleting his stamina, the rate at which his cells absorbed and digested Natural Energy was definitely far superior to the normal consumption of the human body.
Moreover, even though his body had undergone tremendous changes during this past year of seclusion, the amount of Natural Energy his cells could absorb and digest, as well as the speed of digestion, had significantly increased.
But even this had its limits!
If he absorbed it but couldn't digest it, it would accumulate within him.
Once the quantity became too great, he would inevitably be eroded by the Natural Energy and go berserk!
This was because Sarutobi Asuma had not yet reached the true Sage Realm he envisioned, where he could absorb Natural Energy without restraint and without going berserk.
Of course.
If he didn't open the Eight Gates, there was no problem at all.
However, what Sarutobi Asuma was considering was permanently opening the Eight Gates, at least the first few gates.
After pondering for a moment, Sarutobi Asuma temporarily set aside many thoughts and continued to open the Eight Gates.
The third gate, the Gate of Life, opened!
His brain's restriction on pain was lifted!
The fourth gate, the Gate of Pain, opened!
His power erupted, and green light enveloped Sarutobi Asuma.
"The fourth gate is already stronger than when Might Guy opened the sixth gate before."
As he opened the gates, Sarutobi Asuma felt his body and then reined in the bursting power, the green light receding.
When he opened the fifth gate, the Gate of Limit, terrifying power erupted once more.
His hair flew wildly, his robes billowed, and green light reappeared on his skin.
Sarutobi Asuma then proceeded to open the sixth gate, the View Gate.
Boom!
A formidable power burst from within his body, pushing aside the surrounding air and forming shockwaves that swept outward. The cascading waterfall, over ten meters away, was actually severed by this shockwave.
"Such powerful strength!"
Sarutobi Asuma silently assessed, "But, my current destructive power, speed, and reaction ability are still no match for Level 8 Lightning Style Chakra Mode."
However, his Lightning Style Chakra Mode was now Level 10.
Coupled with his physical transformation, Chakra was no longer a bottleneck, and he could now unleash power on the Six Paths Level.
"The sixth gate is nothing to me. With Sage Mode, I don't fear Truth-Seeking Balls..."
Sarutobi Asuma felt his way around for a moment, and his body sank slightly.
The seventh gate, the Gate of Shock, opened!
Boom!
The air was again pushed aside, and Sarutobi Asuma's sweat evaporated in large quantities, forming blue light around his body.
At this moment, Sarutobi Asuma felt all the cells in his body becoming excited, madly absorbing and digesting Natural Energy.
Both the absorption rate and digestion rate were more than ten times faster than before.
"This power... so strong..."
Sarutobi Asuma clenched his right fist, and the air was immediately compressed by him, forming an air ball.
Boom!
Sarutobi Asuma squeezed hard, and the air ball exploded, forming a shockwave that swept out.
"Now, let's test how strong I am!"
Sarutobi Asuma became excited.
Then, with a thought, a Truth-Seeking Ball shot out from his body.
Sixty meters away, under Sarutobi Asuma's control, the Truth-Seeking Ball expanded and transformed into a shield.
Afterward, Sarutobi Asuma balled his fist.
Open!
Sarutobi Asuma exerted his strength, and the rock he usually sat on instantly turned to dust.
He threw out a punch with his right fist, his power surging in an explosion. The air was compressed to an extreme degree, and as the force traveled through it, the air was continuously compressed, forming a white vacuum tunnel.
Where the power arrived, a large amount of air condensed, forming an air cannon!
Sixty meters away, Sarutobi Asuma clearly noticed a distortion in space on the shield formed by the Truth-Seeking Ball.
It's a long story, but sixty meters is just an instant.
The air cannon collided with the shield formed by the Truth-Seeking Ball. Where it was hit, the Truth-Seeking Ball exploded, leaving a fist-sized hole!
"Six Paths level!"
Sarutobi Asuma smiled.
Moreover, compared to the Evening Elephant from the original story, it was even better!
This was the power of the Eight Inner Gates formation.
The stronger the user, the more powerful the burst of strength after opening them!
"With this kind of attack power, perhaps only a fully formed Susanoo at the Six Paths level could withstand it."
Sarutobi Asuma speculated.
The seventh gate was already this powerful.
So what about all eight gates opened?
Sarutobi Asuma retrieved the shattered Truth-Seeking Ball and then lowered his gaze.
A moment later, he opened his eyes, veins bulging all over his body, his eyebrows and hair gradually turning red, and finally, his entire being was enveloped in crimson steam.
The Gate of Death, open!
"Too strong... it definitely surpasses my current full-power Lightning Style Chakra Mode."
Sarutobi Asuma was shocked.
"My blood is evaporating, my cells are operating under extreme overload. At most... at most, in half an hour, my cells will begin to collapse."
"In at most an hour, it will be irreversible."
"If I limit it to half an hour, and after closing the Eight Gates, with my recovery speed, it will likely take a year or two to recover, and it will definitely damage my lifespan."
Sarutobi Asuma made one assessment after another.
Then, he opened his system and accessed his skill panel.
Level 10 Eight Inner Gates formation 50%!
With all eight gates open, he possessed the power of the Six Paths level.
However, this was also a last resort!
If it were Ninjutsu, his Adamantine Sealing Chains were also level 10. With enough Chakra, they also possessed Six Paths level power.
"Then, let me try to see how strong pure strength at the Six Paths level is!"
Sarutobi Asuma soared into the air, positioning himself hundreds of meters high, and clenched his fist again.
After charging up, he punched straight out.
Boom!
A vacuum tunnel appeared again.
After a hundred meters, the air cannon had actually created spiderweb-like black cracks.
Spatial cracks!
Undoubtedly, this was power far exceeding the Evening Elephant.
However.
Sarutobi Asuma looked at his fist.
His finger bones, palm bones, and hand bones were all cracked.
Especially his finger bones, they were almost shattered.
He opened his palm, resetting them bone by bone, and they quickly healed and recovered.
Although his Constitution allowed for rapid recovery, it was enough to show that his body still couldn't withstand such power.
"But no matter what, I now have a great trump card!"
Sarutobi Asuma breathed a sigh of relief.
Even if Kaguya were to revive immediately, he wouldn't be afraid anymore.
The Eight Gates closed one by one.
Sarutobi Asuma immediately felt a deep fatigue, his entire body numb.
He quickly used Yang Release Sage Chakra to soak every cell, making his entire body feel as if it were soaking in a hot spring, and his cells began to absorb Natural Energy to replenish the consumption.
When opening the Eight Gates, the speed at which his cells absorbed and digested Natural Energy could no longer keep up with the consumption.
"Awesome!"
Sarutobi Asuma's face was full of smiles.
A Six Paths level at 15 years old, who else can say that?
