Certainly he is genius right? Opening the last gate ensures death, which means prior to his scuffle with Madara he had never opened it before. Meaning there was no practice involved...as nothing could have prepared him for the last gate.


Guy has never moved that fast before, yet he was able to still effectively implement strong fist and keep perfect form.

He most certainly has never kicked up air before, yet was able to balance himself and move around normally in the air.

Created two skills that he himself had never even seen before or had the chance to practice (EE, NM). Despite this he still knew exactly what he was doing.

Is Guy a genius? Discuss.​

Yes, it is because Gai is a complete master and genius at Taijutsu.

He likely estimated how great his abilities would be based off his experience with the first 7 Gates, and created strategies around his estimations for the 8th Gate.

Hence why the EE technique worked, but Gai had no idea of the pain involved. He didn't create them on the fly, but they were educated guesses.

Just goes to show how much of a master Gai was at Taijutsu. Literally the best in the history of the NV.

he didn't create the moves on the fly though, he had prior knowledge ead my comment above

Never seen 'Naruto' and 'genius' in one sentence :elmo:
Genius means "extremely smart " , if I remember ?

Genius - Skilled Shinobi

Sasuke - Kakashi - Minato - Itachi - Madara etc...

Genius? I doubt it. He's no slouch either, though.

Just plot.

Uchiha magically know how to use their new eye hax ability after getting it.

Kaguya knew Amaterasu's name even though she's never heard it.

Kakashi and Obito both called Kamui by name even though they never spoke to each other about it prior.

What?

BZ already informed Kaguya of Amaterasu. That is also a convo between the two.

Was that in your fanfic? Black Zetsu never mentioned Amaterasu to her. And he was already separated from her body by Naruto. That's Kaguya thinking to herself.

Nice fanfic, though. :lol

So, who exactly is she talking to? Herself?

They obviously share a connection.

Yes. Just like every other character has done.

Who was Madara talking to here? Black Zetsu? :lol
