[Predictions] Guy could die very soon.

[9Bijuu]

To start this thread off I just want to say that Kishi and his foreshadowing is VERY obvious and should never be over-looked. Through minor themes and details he sets up the anime and every progression in the series had an obvious beginning. (Two recent examples were when "Madara/Tobi" stood in front of the empty edo-coffin hinting to the fact that Madara was in it and Kabuto's constant regarding nature and then his use of sage mode in recent chapters.)

Basically what I'm trying to say is Kishi uses details to set up future events. Guy has always been one of my characters and I noticed something a while ago that I just decided to post regarding his gate techniques so here are the 6th and 7th gate techniques:

6th gate - Morning Peacock (Fire based taijutsu)
7th gate - Daytime Tiger (Air based shock wave jutsu)

I'm not sure if people picked up on the technique names but it seems like the gate names hint to Guy's using of the 8th gate. When jutsu are named in a way like these, they follow a pattern. The 6th gate was morning, the 7th daytime, and the 8th will be night - his ultimate technique and the end of his "youth," and, more than likely, his life.

While I'm not sure if it will out right kill him the naming of these justu definitely leads me to believe Guy will use his 8th gate, the fact he mentioned it within a recent chapter also further reinforces my thoughts. It just seems like Kishi is trying to prepare us for Guy's final technique and his possible death.

To finish this thread I think I'll talk a bit about what I feel the finaly jutsu will be.

At the moment, I'm going with, "Nighttime Dragon," and I'm going to assume it's going to be somehow related to lighting jutsu. My reasons for this are pretty simple, the nighttime is a given, the lightning style would follow the current line of the elements of these jutsu (fire to air to lightning is the order the jutsu would "beat each other" in) and the reasons for the Dragon is a bit more complex.

With credit to "OhReary" it would make sense because it follows the zodiac and the description of the zodiac's dragon perfectly follows Guy as it's, "...vigorous, strong, self-assured, proud, direct, dignified, eccentric, intellectual, fiery, and passionate." The most important thing about the dragon is its description as noble and, in the average view, a dragon is a beast and most likely green, similar to Guy's title of, "Konoha's noble green beast."

Why do want Gai to die?

[skehan17]

if he dies, I will cry

[9Bijuu]

Why do want Gai to die?

He wouldn't want to but he may have to. He already almost had to use the 8th gate, there's no telling what will happen and I'm 99% sure we'll see it. Kishi's been setting up this jutsu since Kisame's death.

[Kazekage35]

Agreed. I think he will have some sort of suicidal taijutsu technique

[OhReary]

I'm assuming something along the line of "...Dragon", following the Asian zodiacs, but that might not be the case, excluding peacock.
However if he does make a heroic sacrifice, it must put a dent in the direction of the war.

That's very thought through....but Kakashi would probably stop Gai before it got to that point as he did before.....***** though...

[Midday]

I don't know why people want to kill off Guy so much when there are people like Oonoki and Tsunade around.

Gai's attacks are based off mythical creatures in Chinese mythology and constellations
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Sy...nstellation%29

These creatures are the:
-Tortoise (Gai's summons)
-Bird (Asa Kujaku)
-Tiger (Hiru Dora)
-Dragon (______)

The last attack will be something along the lines of "Midnight Dragon" or "Evening Dragon"

_____________________________________________


I just had a thought.

If Gai has never used the 8th Gate, then how would he even have this final attack mastered? It means he's never used it before O.O

[Naruto Ninetails]

ok...............

[Infinite Mizu]

Maybe he'll have to end up resorting to opening the eighth gate .-. hope not

[Yo pappy]

I hope so, and I don' mean that in a bad way.

[ronus]

Good work showing things we have overlooked.. ***** for that..
But I think Guy will not die(he won't use 8th Gate)..

[Baldy..]

Agreed. There is a high chance he will use 8th Gate, and die very soon

[devil naruto]

nooooooooooooooo i don't him to die

[home]

i hope this doesnt happen, but this is a good theory

[OhReary]

We eventually have to see someone use the eighth gate ><

[UzumakiNaruto20]

Heres a better question, How do you develop an eighth gated technique?

[9Bijuu]

You'd have to ask Kishi that, it's kind of like asking how you develop Izanagi / Izanami. It's a technique that can only be used once (unless you're a lab experiment like Danzo) so "training" with it is out of the question.

I'd kind of like that to be explained myself.

[MangekyouJ]

Heres a better question, How do you develop an eighth gated technique?

Heh...I personally don't think there is one, but refresh my memory if I'm wrong anyone....if a person reaches the 8th Gate....they die....right? So how can anyone make a technique in the 8th??? Good point...rep +

My guess is that he practices the techniques first in the lower gates, and whichever one is stronger there he saves up for the 8th.

It's impossible to know although we may find out in the future but as I said earlier it's similar to Izanagi - how can you know how to do it / repeat it when it takes something from you? Izanagi blinds you and prevents you from ever using it again and the 8th gate kills you. It's hard to say for sure but there will most likely be some kind of god-like technique or speed involved with it.

[MarkPaul]

He MUSTbe stopped! Kakashi will indeed stop him. ;D

[Ultimatevirus]

possible... ***** for posting
