Insect Clone!
Aburame Ryoma was also a battle-hardened Elite Jonin.
Although he was intimidated by Might Guy's astonishing aura, his eyes completely failed to keep up with Might Guy's speed.
However, he still managed to use an Insect Clone at the critical moment, dodging the strike!
Bang!
Aburame Ryoma's body, upon being struck, dissolved into a cloud of black mist, which turned out to be tiny Parasitic Insects.
"Use Ninjutsu to control him; the rest of you, go seize Kakashi Hatake!"
Aburame Ryoma's figure appeared on the other side as dense swarms of Parasitic Insects reformed his body.
"Yes!"
The other Root Ninjas obeyed the command and began forming hand seals one after another.
"Earth Release: Swamp of the Underworld!"
"Earth Release: Double Suicide Decapitation Technique!"
"Parasitic Insects: Cluster!"
More Parasitic Insects emerged from Aburame Ryoma's body, forming a cloud of insects several times larger than before, lunging toward Might Guy.
A patch of mud formed beneath Might Guy's feet, and a hand emerged from the center, reaching for Might Guy's ankle!
Bang!
On the other side, the roof suddenly shattered as three Root Ninjas lying in ambush outside launched an attack at the opportune moment.
Swish, swish, swish!
"Lightning Release: False Darkness!"
"Wind Release: Vacuum Wave!"
Kunai accompanied by the sound of breaking air shot toward Kakashi Hatake.
Two Ninjutsu formed from Chakra also covered the space where Kakashi Hatake could dodge, one from the left and one from the right.
There was no way to avoid it!
"Oh no!"
Kakashi Hatake reached out to form hand seals, wanting to use Earth-Style Wall to block the attack.
But he exerted too much force; as he raised his arm, he felt a piercing pain, causing cold sweat to pour down.
Just as the Kunai and Ninjutsu were about to hit Kakashi Hatake, Might Guy rushed over:
"Get lost!"
Relying on his incomprehensible speed, he had instantly dodged the attacks from Aburame Ryoma and the others. Seeing Kakashi Hatake in trouble, he immediately rushed over, dispersing the Kunai and Ninjutsu with a wave of his hand, saving Kakashi Hatake.
"You! You! Bastards!"
Might Guy's skin had turned deep brown due to the high-intensity Chakra rampage, and the air he exhaled from his mouth and nose was as thick as white smoke.
"Take this! Morn! ing! Pea! cock!"
Might Guy continuously threw punches, with massive amounts of flames appearing on his fists.
The speed at which flames were generated by friction gave the enemy no room to even catch their breath.
The flames scattered from his fists shot toward the Root Ninjas, bright as a sunrise and dazzling like a peacock's tail feathers!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The scorching flames hit the three who had jumped down from the roof, the extreme temperature directly melting their protective gear.
These three were knocked down by Might Guy in an instant, horrific burn wounds appearing on their bodies as they lay on the ground, letting out painful wails.
"This guy, what kind of Ninjutsu is he using?!"
Aburame Ryoma's face beneath his mask turned ashen.
He had brought five Root Ninjas for this mission, and now three had been taken out by Might Guy in a single encounter.
What was eerie was that he had no idea how Might Guy's current state could be so powerful.
The data clearly showed that Might Guy was just a Jonin specializing in Taijutsu.
But this specialty of yours is just too damn ridiculous, isn't it?
It wasn't entirely Aburame Ryoma's fault for the inaccurate data.
Since Might Duy used the Eight Gates Released Formation once while fiercely battling the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.
It had never appeared in Konoha again.
Might Guy usually only opened up to the Gate of Life in battle, as anything after the Gate of Pain would harm the user.
He wouldn't use it unless it was a critical moment.
This also resulted in very few people having witnessed the true power of the Eight Gates Released Formation.
"Speak! Who exactly are you people?"
"Why have you come to kidnap Kakashi!"
Might Guy panted heavily; the Fifth Gate was also a heavy burden for him.
At this moment, a large portion of the muscles in his body had torn, and the immense pain allowed him to regain a shred of clarity.
"Guy! They are Danzo's people; take them down first!"
Kakashi Hatake called out a reminder.
He had sensed something was wrong from the moment Aburame Ryoma appeared.
If Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze wanted to summon him, why would he send unfamiliar Anbu?
As a Ninja who came from the Anbu and was the captain of the Hokage's Guard Platoon, he knew most of the Anbu members.
Yet he wasn't familiar with a single one of these so-called Anbu who had suddenly appeared.
Combined with their willingness to take action in a place like Konoha Hospital at the slightest disagreement.
It was hard not to think of Danzo Shimura.
Only that old man's people would dare to act so recklessly within Konoha Village!
"Alright! Morning Peacock!"
Urged by his best friend, Might Guy immediately repeated his previous tactic, intending to use Morning Peacock to finish off the remaining three.
"Humph! You're looking down on me too much."
Aburame Ryoma's face was cold as he formed hand seals:
"Secret Technique: Insect Sphere!"
The mist composed of Parasitic Insects appeared once again.
And this time, it was everywhere in the entire hospital room!
A large number of Parasitic Insects formed a black wall, perfectly blocking the flames of Might Guy's Morning Peacock.
"Did you think I was just standing there stupidly watching and doing nothing?"
"Naive."
Aburame Ryoma was also a very experienced Ninja; otherwise, he wouldn't be relied upon as Danzo Shimura's right-hand man.
He had been secretly releasing the Parasitic Insects from his body just now, covering the entire room.
Now, in every inch and corner of the hospital room, his Parasitic Insects were present!
"You two, go seize Kakashi Hatake. I'll deal with this Bowl-cut."
Aburame Ryoma ordered.
The two Root Ninjas took the order and immediately lunged toward Kakashi Hatake.
"Don't even think about getting close to Kakashi!"
Might Guy roared, exerting force to rush forward and block the two Root Ninjas.
But in the next moment, he found that he couldn't move his legs at all!
Startled, Might Guy saw that the parts of his legs below the knees were already covered with dense swarms of black Parasitic Insects!
"Didn't expect that, did you? Just as expected of an idiot Ninja who doesn't use his brain to fight."
Aburame Ryoma sneered.
While ordering the Root Ninjas to capture Kakashi Hatake, he had quietly driven the Parasitic Insects to crawl onto Might Guy's legs.
And at that time, Might Guy, concerned for his best friend, hadn't noticed at all.
By the time he discovered it, the Chakra in his legs had already been completely devoured by the Parasitic Insects!
"Secret Technique: Insect Tornado!"
Aburame Ryoma formed hand seals, and the Parasitic Insects in the room once again formed a black storm, blotting out the sky!
Mission accomplished!
Aburame Ryoma felt that he was now just one step away from success.
Might Guy watched as the two Root Ninjas attacked Kakashi Hatake, who, with his injured arm, was unable to use Ninjutsu and could only struggle to parry. His eyes were about to burst with rage!
"Kakashi!"
"Eight Gates, Sixth Gate..."
"Stop, Guy, you've done enough."
Suddenly, a golden figure appeared in the hospital room. Catching them off guard, he instantly kicked away the two Root Ninjas pestering Kakashi Hatake, then condensed a massive Chakra sphere in his hand, dispersing the Insect Tornado.
"To take my people away, have you asked me?"
The newcomer was none other than the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze!
