"Yuzuru!"
The Third Raikage greeted Uchiha Yuzuru warmly.
Uchiha Yuzuru smiled and introduced, "This is Might Duy and Might Guy. They were once Ninja of Konoha, and now they wish to join the Hidden Cloud Village."
Upon hearing this, the Third Raikage immediately nodded in agreement and extended his right hand to Might Duy: "Welcome! From now on, we are comrades. If you have any problems, come find me."
After hearing the Third Raikage's words, Might Duy, somewhat overwhelmed, shook his hand.
When he was in Konoha, as a perennial Genin, he was constantly mocked and looked down upon.
Even other Genin were unwilling to team up with him.
But now, a powerful figure of the Third Raikage's status not only didn't doubt his identity and intentions but also showed him considerable enthusiasm.
Might Duy had never even dared to dream of such a scene.
For a moment, Might Duy, who was usually very emotional, had his eyes turn red.
Noticing the change in Might Duy's emotions, the Third Raikage scratched his head.
Might Duy's reaction reminded him of Sakumo Hatake back then.
How exactly did the Hokage of Konoha treat his subordinates? It seemed like they were all so easily moved.
"Dodai, go arrange accommodation for Dai and Might Guy, and also give them enough money for their living expenses."
Dodai, who was standing by, smiled and said, "Leave it to me."
After Dodai left the Raikage Office with Might Duy and Might Guy, the Third Raikage asked curiously, "Yuzuru, this father and son you brought back today seem a bit unusual."
Uchiha Yuzuru didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point: "Might Duy and Might Guy possess a family secret Ninjutsu—the Eight Inner Gates."
"The Eight Inner Gates can remove the body's limitations, thereby gaining dozens of times one's own power for a short period."
"Of course, starting from the Fourth Gate, each additional opened Gate causes irreversible damage to the body."
"Once the Gate of Death is opened, it means sacrificing one's life."
After hearing Uchiha Yuzuru's explanation, the Third Raikage secretly nodded.
It was just as he had guessed; any Ninja Uchiha Yuzuru took an interest in definitely possessed extraordinary abilities.
No matter how great the side effects of the Eight Inner Gates were, a secret Ninjutsu that could rapidly enhance one's strength in a short time was a treasure in the Ninja World.
Thinking of this, the Third Raikage asked, "Yuzuru, is it difficult to Cultivate a secret Ninjutsu like the Eight Inner Gates?"
Uchiha Yuzuru easily guessed the Third Raikage's thoughts and laughed, "Cultivating the Eight Inner Gates is not difficult. The requirements for opening the Gates are closely related to physical strength, so to Cultivate the Eight Inner Gates, one only needs to constantly temper their body."
"Really?" The Third Raikage's eyes lit up.
Most Ninja in their Hidden Cloud Village would Cultivate Ninjutsu that strengthens the body.
And listening to Uchiha Yuzuru's description, the Eight Inner Gates seemed like a secret Ninjutsu tailor-made for their Hidden Cloud Village!
Seeing the Third Raikage's excited and expectant look, Uchiha Yuzuru directly said, "Don't worry, I will try to persuade Dai to hand over the Cultivation method for the Eight Inner Gates, but we must also give them corresponding rewards."
Upon hearing this, the Third Raikage waved his hand, "No problem. In the future, all Ninjutsu, Taijutsu, and secret Ninjutsu of the Hidden Cloud Village, including the Lightning Release Chakra Armor, will be freely accessible to the father and son."
Now Might Duy and Might Guy are already Ninja of the Hidden Cloud Village, and their strengthening will also benefit the Hidden Cloud Village.
Besides… exchanging existing things for such a powerful secret Ninjutsu like the Eight Inner Gates, this deal seemed worthwhile no matter how he thought about it.
"Then I'll go talk to Dai about this."
"Sandaime, you can also rest assured that with the physiques of our Hidden Cloud Village Ninja, Cultivating to open the first three Gates of the Eight Inner Gates should not be a problem."
After Uchiha Yuzuru finished speaking, he walked outside.
After popularizing the Eight Inner Gates in the Hidden Cloud Village, the overall strength of the Hidden Cloud Village would be able to rise to another level.
After all… the majority of Ninja are still Chunin and Genin.
And the first three Gates of the Eight Inner Gates, whether in terms of Cultivation difficulty or the extent of power increase, are very suitable for them.

After walking out of the Raikage Building, Uchiha Yuzuru went directly to Might Duy and Might Guy's residence.
At this time, Dodai had already left, and only some Anbu of the Hidden Cloud Village were helping to move things.
Seeing Uchiha Yuzuru walk in, the Anbu Ninja immediately bowed and saluted: "Lord Yuzuru!"
Uchiha Yuzuru waved his hand: "You all are busy, don't mind me."
"Yes!"
The Anbu Ninja continued with their work, and Uchiha Yuzuru walked over to Might Duy and Might Guy.
At this moment, the father and son were carefully looking at the room's furnishings, their eyes full of admiration.
Seeing Uchiha Yuzuru, Might Duy said nervously, "Lord Yuzuru, do we really get to live in such a nice house?"
Before, in Konoha, his residence was a small wooden hut, which was a world apart from the house in front of him.
Uchiha Yuzuru said indifferently, "This house is for you. Next door is the Hatake family's compound. When we have time, let's have a drink together."
Might Guy's eyes immediately lit up. After bowing to Uchiha Yuzuru, he darted out.
Might Duy, on the other hand, felt very unreal, as if he was still dreaming.
The Third Raikage, Sakumo Hatake… these were all powerful figures he could only look up to before.
Now there was actually a chance to drink together?
A Genin with no talent like him, how could he be worthy!
Looking at Might Duy's dazed expression, Uchiha Yuzuru slowly said, "Dai, your Eight Inner Gates seems very powerful. Can you hand it over to the Hidden Cloud Village?"
"The Village will give you corresponding compensation."
Uchiha Yuzuru repeated the conditions the Third Raikage had mentioned to Might Duy.
After listening, Might Duy let out a long sigh of relief.
"I don't need any rewards. I am willing to give the Eight Inner Gates to the Village."
"And if anyone has any Cultivation problems, they can come to me anytime. I am willing to share my Cultivation experience."
After hearing Uchiha Yuzuru's request, Might Duy was no longer so nervous.
The Hidden Cloud Village treated him too well; if he didn't have to do anything, he would feel uneasy instead.
Besides, if everyone could Cultivate the Eight Inner Gates, wearing green jumpsuits and pursuing youth… how spectacular would that scene be!
Uchiha Yuzuru hadn't expected Might Duy to hand over the Eight Inner Gates so easily.
One must know that such a hidden secret Ninjutsu is as important to a Ninja as his own life.
Thinking of this, Hiruzen Sarutobi's figure couldn't help but appear in Uchiha Yuzuru's mind.
How stupid was that guy to manage Konoha, a Village blessed by fate, into its current state?
