Naruto: About the Fact That my Brother is Madara-Chapter 205 - : Madly in Love – Sanfang

Read 20+ Chapter's Ahead in Patreon

Back then, after suffering defeat in the arena, Sanfang took on the duty of protecting Hyūga Yayoi.

And just like that, ten years passed in the blink of an eye.

What had begun as an obligation he reluctantly accepted had, over time, turned into something he could not abandon—even if someone tried to drive him away.

Even with Kyōsuke's arrival, the man continued to avoid him, fearing that he would be asked to leave the Hyūga Clan.

Indeed, after years of companionship, he had long since fallen deeply in love with the woman.

(P.S: It was a one-sided love; they would not end up together, so don't worry.)

His former ambition to stand at the pinnacle of the shinobi world had long been cast aside. Now, all he desired was to quietly remain by Yayoi's side.

Companionship is the truest form of confession. That was what he believed.

Perhaps one day, she would come to accept his devotion.

He was willing to wait—until Yayoi completely forgot about that man.

Ten years, twenty years, however long it took, he could afford to wait.

Even if it cost him his entire lifetime, he would have no regrets.

During the previous war, Hyūga Yayoi had firmly refused to let him participate. Having endured the agony of waiting herself, she did not wish to use emotions as a chain to bind anyone.

Knowing that he could be of no help, Sanfang began a period of seclusion, dedicating himself to relentless training.

In just five years, through hellish discipline, he had forged himself into an overwhelmingly powerful force.

Now, with Senju Tobirama's arrival carrying ill intentions, he had made his decision.

This time, he would take action himself, proving his worth with victory.

As water erupted in a violent explosion, Tobirama swiftly retreated, his gaze filled with disbelief.

Since when did the Hyūga Clan gain a taijutsu expert of such caliber?

No, judging by the situation, this person was likely not a member of the Hyūga at all.

"Interesting..."

Sensing the turbulent chakra surging from his opponent, Tobirama swiftly altered his hand seals. Beneath his feet, the water began to churn with a powerful current.

Water Release: Surfing Strike!

This was a high-speed movement technique, allowing him to maneuver swiftly not only on the water's surface but also beneath it.

It had been developed specifically as a complement to Exploding Water Colliding Wave.

His opponent's taijutsu was formidable—there was no need to engage in a direct clash.

"Do not stand in my way," Tobirama said coldly, raising a hand.

A barrage of water bullets shot forth in an overwhelming onslaught.

Water Release: Water Hail!

With the advantage of the terrain, this attack was both exceptionally fierce and covered an enormous range.

Clearly, he had no intention of allowing his opponent any room to evade.

Fortunately, Sanfang had no need to dodge.

—

The Eight Gates—a forbidden technique that removed the body's natural restraints on chakra flow.

Within the chakra circulatory system, there existed eight specific points that acted as limiters:

The Gate of Opening, the Gate of Rest, the Gate of Life, the Gate of Pain, the Gate of Limit, the Gate of View, the Gate of Wonder, and the Gate of Death.

These gates restricted the amount of chakra the body could release, ensuring controlled and efficient usage. However, by forcibly overriding these limits, the technique allowed the user to unleash strength dozens of times greater than their original capabilities.

That was the fundamental principle behind the Eight Gates.

The stronger the shinobi, the more terrifying the increase in power upon opening the gates. However, there was a limit—the augmentation could never exceed the threshold of the Six Paths level.

The closer one was to that realm, the lesser the impact of the technique, for an already vast chakra reserve could naturally surpass the body's restrictions.

As for Sanfang, he was still far from reaching that level.

Thus, by opening the Eight Gates, he would gain an explosive surge in power.

—

The Sixth Gate: Gate of View—Open!

Green energy erupted around him in torrents, radiating with an intense, untamed force.

Before Tobirama's astonished eyes, the man launched forward with a powerful kick, soaring like a phoenix cloaked in flames.

Night Phoenix!

From the distance, the observing Hyūga shinobi could only see a brilliant flash of fire.

In the next instant, the positions of the two combatants had been reversed.

Tobirama had evaded—vanishing with the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Another key trait of Exploding Water Colliding Wave was its ability to conceal the coordinates of the marked kunai he had thrown.

"This guy..."

Tobirama couldn't comprehend why his opponent had suddenly unleashed such terrifying strength.

Yet, before he could react, Sanfang's furious fist came crashing down once more.

"Anyone who dares to harm Yayoi... must die!!!"

Fists roared through the air.

Tobirama, unwilling to take a direct hit, continuously teleported using the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Yet no matter how many times he shifted, the enemy pursued him relentlessly, attacking the instant he reappeared.

The rapid movements left behind countless afterimages, painting an intricate spectacle across the battlefield.

Ultimate Reverse Lotus!

A contest of speed against speed—so relentless that Tobirama had no time to think.

He could only keep dodging.

One second.

Two seconds.

Three seconds.

In mere moments, the two of them had exchanged positions dozens of times.

Gradually, Tobirama felt his mind grow hazy, his reactions slowing. As a result, the steps of locking onto coordinates and executing teleportation naturally lagged as well.

And in a battle where victory was decided in mere milliseconds, even a 0.01-second delay could seal one's fate.

*BOOOOM!*

A fist imbued with immense force struck him square in the chest.

Blood sprayed from his mouth as he was sent crashing into the massive sphere of water below.

"Damn it..."

Yayoi froze momentarily, even she was utterly shocked.

For so many years, she had never understood why Kyōsuke had sent this man to protect her.

But now, she finally did.

This chapt𝓮r is updat𝒆d by ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom.

"Such a powerful warrior... yet he chose not to keep him by his side?"

"He truly... still cares about me."

In the brief moment she was lost in thought, Sanfang had already plunged into the water sphere, clearly intent on finishing off his opponent.

Seeing this, Tobirama, whose mouth was still spilling fresh blood, finally let his killing intent fully manifest.

"You scum... do you really think I can't deal with you?!"

With a single hand seal, countless explosive tags suddenly emerged from the surrounding waters.

This was the third application of Explosive Water Colliding Wave, designed to serve as a vessel for Mutual Multiplying Explosive Tags.

By controlling the flow of water, Tobirama could execute an infinite chain of explosive summoning without ever needing to get close to his enemies.

"Go to hell!!!"

Perhaps sensing the looming threat of death, Sanfang's expression darkened, and the surging chakra within his body flared even more violently.

The Seventh Gate—

"Stop!!!"

At the critical moment, Hyūga Yayoi, her entire body radiating the chakra of the Tenseigan, stormed into the battlefield.

With a single, terrifyingly powerful Shinra Tensei, she forcefully interrupted the deadly clash between the two sides.

She would not have minded killing Tobirama right then and there. However, doing so would completely derail Kyōsuke's plans.

Moreover, if she acted recklessly, the Hyūga clan would inevitably bear the wrath of Konoha.

Just as many had suspected, in the current Land of Fire, no faction dared to provoke the Hidden Leaf Village.

Not her, nor the Hyūga clan.

Tobirama, now hovering slightly above the water, remained expressionless. However, in truth, he had long since prepared to flee at a moment's notice.

If she truly intended to kill him, he knew he could not stand alone against these two formidable foes.

"Senju Tobirama, I accept your request for me to join Konoha."

Yayoi gestured for her subordinate to stand down.

At her signal, Sanfang immediately released his Eight Gates state, displaying remarkable obedience.

"...I must thank you, Clan Leader Yayoi, for your great wisdom and understanding."

Tobirama took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the fury that had surged within him.

Now he understood—she had intended to join all along.

The reason she had fought him was simply an excuse to beat him up a little.

"Why... why am I always the one who ends up injured?"

Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Tobirama couldn't help but feel a deep sense of frustration.
