8 gates....

[FlareBlitz]

Ok. I have a question.. if when a person uses the 8th gate they die right? Well how the hell does gai know he can open the eight gate if he has never done it?.....hmmmmm...

Of course, Might Gai would have been taught the secrets from his Sensei. It passes on from Generation to Generation.

 

[Shame]

Cause he said so

So ur saying the one who taught gai to use gates took it upon himself to kill himself in order to show him how to unlock the 8th gate.

It's simple. Someone uses the Eights Gates while another examines the effects and usage from another perspective. It was then writing on old scrolls passed down from Generations to Generations. That is how Might Gai knows? Or course, I'm assuming and speculating, but not over-thinking.

if you can open 1 gate in theory, you can open them all. what you train for is the physical stress that using the gates has on you. For example look at Lee in part 1 against Gaara using the 3rd gate (i think it was the 3rd) and look at Guy against Kisame using the 7th gate. they were in rather similar physical states after using the gates, and yet Guy was 6 gates higher than Lee.

I see what ur saying. I had a simular thought.

He can probably "feel" the gate, without actually opening. It is the same as Minato being able to use the Reaper Death Seal perfectly even though he couldn't have practiced using it before since it kills the user. They are both geniuses in their own rights.
