-------------------------------------------------------------
The sun hung high in the sky, casting its blinding rays over a lush, green forest below.
"Whish—"
A gentle breeze swept through the trees, rustling the leaves and carrying faint, suppressed growls.
"Swish!"
On a thick branch, Sakumo's figure suddenly appeared. He stood silently, his brows furrowed, gazing intently at the distant mountain cliff ahead.
The next moment, a terrifying sound from up ahead made his expression turn serious. Without hesitation, he vanished again, rushing towards the source.
In front of a towering cliff in the distance, a humanoid figure stood tall. His body surged with terrifying chakra, so intense that even while standing still, the waves of energy sent dust spiraling around him.
This being was described as humanoid because it was hard to tell if he was even human anymore. His entire body was engulfed in boiling blue chakra, his hair standing on end, and his white eyes radiated an aura more terrifying than the fiercest beast.
Suddenly, he lifted his head, those nearly white eyes emotionlessly staring at the towering cliff in front of him.
He slightly bent his legs and forcefully stomped on the ground.
"Boom—"
In the next instant, the ground where he stood cracked open, sending dust flying in all directions. A massive crater several meters deep appeared where he had been, but his figure had already disappeared!
A dark shadow moved at an almost imperceptible speed, racing across the ground. The rocks along its path were upheaved, leaving deep trenches in the earth.
With a wave of scorching heat, the shadow charged straight toward the towering cliff with unstoppable momentum.
On a distant tree, Sakumo's figure appeared again. Seeing the figure cloaked in blue chakra moving at such high speed, a look of shock crossed his face as he murmured, "Is that...Dai?"
The dark shadow charging towards the cliff didn't notice Sakumo's arrival. At that moment, he had only one thought: to master that technique at all costs!
Only then would he have the power to awaken that person! Only then could he call himself a true friend!
With these thoughts flooding his mind, he gritted his teeth, his face contorting with rage. Veins bulged under his skin as he tensed every muscle.
"Haah!!!"
With a terrifying roar, he launched himself like a cannonball at the massive, solid cliff.
"Boom—"
A violent explosion echoed as dust and debris shot into the air, and a giant crater formed at the base of the cliff from the impact!
"Crack!" "Crack!" "Crack!"
Terrifying cracks began to spread slowly up the cliff from the base. However, compared to the immense cliff, both the crater and the cracks seemed insignificant.
But Dai, engulfed in blazing blue chakra, didn't stop. His white eyes focused, fists clenched, and he began to instinctively throw punches forward in the dust and heat waves.
'Not enough!'
Deep within the dark cave, he continued to punch wildly, each blow shattering large chunks of solid rock.
"Crack. Crack."
The changes at the base of the cliff started to affect the entire structure, with tiny cracks appearing on the cliff's surface.
'Not enough! Still not enough!!'
Inside the deep pit at the base, Dai was like an unstoppable bulldozer, wildly punching forward, forcing his body further into the rock.
"Crack, Crack."
More and more cracks appeared on the massive cliff. To think one man could bring down an entire cliff seemed almost impossible, yet Dai was nearly accomplishing this.
Sakumo, from afar, watched in awe, hardly believing that this was Dai's strength.
"Whoosh—"
A warm breeze blew across the forest, gently brushing against the massive cliff. But this breeze felt like the last straw that broke the camel's back as the entire cliff began to shake violently.
"Boom! Boom!"
Thunderous sounds like roaring thunder echoed through the forest, and the cracks on the cliff grew larger!
'Not enough! Still not enough! Power—I need more power!'
"Haah!!"
"Seventh Gate, Gate of Wonder, open!!"
At the bottom of the pitch-black cliff, a muffled roar echoed. With that heart-wrenching cry, the entire cliff seemed unable to maintain its massive structure any longer and collapsed with a thunderous crash!
Sakumo watched in stunned silence from afar, his face pale.
Under such circumstances, could Dai...
Just as he worried—
"Boom!!"
A terrifying explosion erupted from the collapsing cliff in the distance. Shattered rocks flew like bullets in all directions, some so large they splintered trees on impact.
It was as if a meteor shower had suddenly rained down, with dust flying everywhere, and shockwaves rolling outward.
Fortunately, the birds and beasts in the forest had already fled far away due to the earlier roar, avoiding casualties.
Sakumo carefully dodged the flying debris, his eyes wide in disbelief as he looked at the scene.
Dai's body was now enveloped in a green, flame-like chakra, wrapping around him like a robust suit of armor.
His fists continued to strike the massive falling rocks.
Those were boulders from the shattered cliff!
Yet Dai's body was somehow pushing these stones upward, soaring into the air.
Each step he took seemed to compress the air, propelling his body higher, and his fists moved at incredible speed!
"Haah!"
His eyes were white, veins bulging on his crimson face. His teeth clenched tightly as he suddenly clenched his fists, his body bending to the extreme, and roared.
"Secret Taijutsu Art: Furious Bear!"
With a low growl, the green chakra around him expanded, enveloping his entire body, making him look even more powerful!
"Ahhh!!"
His fists swung with extreme force, his body suddenly springing upward. The cliffside, which was nearly touching the ground, was forcibly lifted by his sheer strength.
At that moment, his arms seemed to go berserk, relentlessly smashing into the rocks.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!".
Loud thuds echoed as the ground trembled with the impact of giant fragments falling from the sky.
Finally, Dai rose into the air, panting heavily like an enraged grizzly bear.
He had nearly punched through an entire cliff from the bottom up!
To push past his limits, he chose this brutal training, entering the very bottom of the cliff from one side.
As he relentlessly destroyed it, the entire cliff would collapse. If he couldn't surpass his limits, the massive rocks would crush him.
He would be buried here, and this place might become his final resting place.
Fortunately, he succeeded...and all of this was so that in the upcoming battle, he would no longer be powerless when facing his former friend!
