------------------------

Rumble... Rumble...

The dust from the formation settles down to reveal the massive planetary size heavenly body.

"That is..."

Guy stares at the giant sphere with wide eyes.

"Just what's going on? Where is Konoha?"

He stares at the massive crater at the previous location of Konoha.

Tap... Tap...

Sound of footsteps echoes in Guy's ears. He turns his attention to the footsteps and notices Sasori slowly walking toward him.

"Now... now... I didn't expect that. It has been a while indeed since I last used myself."

Click... clack...

Sasori's mechanical figure stands off against Guy.

'This Guy is also a puppet?'

Guy enters in a Taijutsu stance.

"Recently, I acquired a very powerful technique from an advanced civilization and since then I have made several modifications to myself. But that's not all... I have acquired an arsenal of highly advanced puppets. I was reluctant to use them in battle since those puppets are a state-of-the art. But now... now I want to appreciate that art in the battle."

The puppet Sasori pulls out a scroll from his back.

Poof... Poof...

Ten humanoid puppets appear beside Sasori. Sasori makes a hand seal to activate the puppets.

"Release,"

The eyes of the puppets glow slightly and they quickly surround Guy.

"This is the ultimate art of puppeteer, self-aware autonomous puppets."

Sasori stretches out his hand, and the puppet follows his head.

A dense ball of chakra gathers in their palm.

Fwoosh... fwoosh...

BOOM... BOOM...

The puppets bombard Guy with multiple exploding chakra spheres.

Swoosh...

Guy jumps out of the encirclement with his arms crossed around his body. He closes the distance with a puppet and clenches his fist to punch the puppet.

Clack... clang...

The puppets block his fist with their own fist.

"What?"

Guy delivers a roundhouse kick and escapes from the grasp of the puppet.

"Violent-Leaf Adamantine- Strength Whirlwind,"

Click...

A nozzle appears on Sasori's palm. An orange kanji symbol for 'Fire' appears on Sasori's chest. The nozzle spews out a dense mass of crimson flames and blocks Guy's path of retreat. The flames engulf the surrounding area, creating a giant wall of flames.

Click...

The orange Kanji symbol turns to cyan for 'Wind'.

Swoosh...

The nozzles spew out a cyan-colored wind tornado. The wind tornado mixes up with the crimson flames to produce a gigantic tornado of fire, further restricting Guy's movements.

Sweat trickles down from Guy's forehead as the immense heat stings his body. The marionette puppets summoned by Sasori engage in close combat with Guy and slowly chip away at his stamina.

Every time Guy lands a blow on the puppets, his fists tremble slightly.

'Just what are they made of? Every time I hit them; I feel half of the pain from my punch. Also, their bodies are so tough that I can't even deal any damage to them. I will blow away this wall of fire, confining my movements first. It's slowing me down.'

Haaah...

Guy crosses his arms around his chest.

"Sixth Gate: Gate of View: Open,"

Dark green aura with a slight mix of blue wraps around Guy. The shockwaves released by the opening of the gate blow away the marionette puppets and the wall of flames engulfing him. Nearby rocks and boulders turn into dust by the powerful pressure emanating from his body. A giant crater appears on the ground at his position.

Whoosh...

Guy's speed increases by another notch. He appears in front of a marionette puppet and rapidly punches it.

"Asakujaku,"

A peacock-like fan of flames appears behind the puppet as the barrage of super-fast punches sets the air ablaze.

Haah...

Guy recedes his fist even further and gathers the entire aura of his body into his fist.

BANG...

His punch explodes on the marionette's body and a gigantic fire phoenix appears behind it. The marionette puppet lodges into the ground and the light in its eyes dims down. There is an exposed core on its chest at the point of impact.

'I seem to have seen this puppet somewhere before!'

Huff... Huff...

Guy breathes heavily after using such an intense Taijutsu move. He glances at the exposed core of the puppet. The puppet is slowly regenerating by using the energy from the core.

Swoosh...

Guy appears on top of the puppet and shatters its core with his leg. He turns in the direction of Sasori and his marionettes.

"One down, ten more to go!"

Guy takes a deep breath and spreads the aura of Eight Gates around his body. Aura control was a technique taught to him by Izuna.

The eight-gate formation is a powerful technique that removes the natural limiters of the body meant to protect it from overexerting itself. With each opened gate, the individual is given access to more and more of their body's chakra; thus greatly boosting their physical strength and speed.

However, this increase in strength comes at a cost. Every time someone opens a gate, there is a loss in the life force of the individual. Usually, one can recover this lost life force through medicine and proper nutrition. The medicinal baths are meant for this purpose.

Not only the bath heals the injuries sustained by the opening of the gates, but it also helps in the recovery of the lost life force.

However, when an individual opens the gates above the fourth gate; a green glow emanates from their body. The glow gets brighter as more gates are opened. This green glow or aura is the life force of an individual. It creates a protective aura around the body to prevent it from crumbling apart.

This green glow is present up to the six gates where it is the brightest. Once the seventh gate is opened, the life force emanates from the sweat pores of the body and its hue turns blue.

Initially, Guy and even his father Duy, the creator of this technique, had no way to utilize the life force aura around the body. However, Izuna did extensive research on it and found it to be energy similar to the life force of the body. He named this energy 'Prana'.

Aura control is a technique that utilizes 'Prana' to enhance combat strength. Izuna remarked that this manipulation is similar to nature energy. While nature energy is the energy of the surroundings, chakra is a form of the physical and spiritual energy of the body, prana is a pure form of life energy that acts as a gateway between chakra and Nature energy. Prana's sole purpose is to aid the body in creating a more powerful chakra. However, it has another hidden effect of further boosting and concentrating the physical strength and defense of the body.

Clench...

Guy clenches his fists and focuses the dense green aura on his fists and legs. He jumps in the air and while in mid-air, he kicks the air to move toward Sasori at an incredible speed.

His powerful kicks create air pockets in the surroundings and Guy uses a pedestal to further increase his speed.

BANG...

Guy intercepts the energy blade of a puppet by focusing the aura on his fists. The energy blade capable of slicing through the strongest chakra ore is blocked by the green aura around Guy's fist. Guy grabs the wrist of the puppet and punches it at the position of its core.

His hand pierces through the puppet's body and destroys its core.

"Not good! He figured out the weak spot of the puppet."

Sasori's expression turns sour.

"I am left with no choice but to use that technique."

Sasori opens a compartment on the right side of his chest.

Swish... swish...

Multiple chakra strings emit from the hole in his chest. The chakra strings attach to the back of the puppets and pull them towards Sasori.

'It's still incomplete, but I will let you witness the glory of the first sentient puppet.'

Haah...

Sasori makes a Ram seal.

Clack... clang... clang...

The marionettes merge with Sasori's body, acting as the core. Their body parts act as the limb of the new puppet, which is held together by numerous chakra strings from Sasori's body. The countless chakra strings act as the meridian of the body.

Clang... clang...

White lightning flickers through the puppet's body parts as they fuse perfectly with each other and their cores shift towards the chest of the puppet. A gigantic mountain size mechanical construct assembles in front of Guy.

"This is the ultimate art. The creation of Gods!"

Two massive mechanical wings appear behind the giant puppet.

Fwoosh...

The energy from the cores channels across the body of the puppet and creates a powerful barrier around it.

Ding...

Guy's full-strength punch produces a metallic sound at the point of impact.

"Not it's my turn!"

BANG...

The puppets curl its giant hand in a fist and slam it on top of Guy. Guy envelops his body with the aura and crosses his hands in front of his chest to block the punch.
