The Great Toad Sage, whose real name is Gamamaru, is a terrifying being who has lived since the Kaguya era.
Not only does he possess the power of sage arts to control natural energy, but he also possesses a prophetic ability that is unique in the entire Naruto series.
He had previously predicted that Jiraiya would also take on a disciple who would become the key to changing the entire ninja world.
This prophecy influenced half of Jiraiya's life.
Now, he has a new prophecy, which naturally shocked Jiraiya.
"Great Toad Sage, you were looking for me?"
Jiraiya gazed at the enormous yet aged toad sage before him, abandoned his usual unruly demeanor, and respectfully knelt down, sincerely asking the question.
The giant toad immortal seemed to be neither asleep nor awake.
"Oh, who are you again?"
Shima Fukasaku: "————"
"Ahem, old man, it's Jiraiya! Didn't you say there was a prophecy about him?"
"Oh, it's little Jiraiya!"
"I remember now, I just had a dream—"
"I dreamt that because of Jiraiya, the three holy lands were destroyed, and the mastermind behind it was a being with powerful eye abilities —"
Upon hearing this, not only Jiraiya but also Fukasaku Shima were greatly shocked!
"Sir, what did you say?!"
"The destruction of the three holy lands?!"
"This isn't just about Jiraiya, is it?!"
Jiraiya's heart sank.
"Was it because of me that the three holy lands were destroyed?"
"Furthermore, the killer is someone with powerful eye abilities—"
"Could it be that—"
"Uchiha Chiba?!"
Fukasaku and Shima's expressions also changed.
It's perfectly reasonable for Jiraiya to think that way.
Back then, in order to protect his teacher Hiruzen Sarutobi, he did not hesitate to summon two great toad sages to fight alongside him against Uchiha Chiba.
However, now, Uchiha Senba is the ruler of the ninja world!
Given his ruthless style of eradicating evil completely and his decisive and ruthless approach, it was almost a certainty that he would completely eliminate his former enemies.
Both Jiraiya and Mount Myōboku were already mentally prepared.
but----
Why are the other two great holy sites also...?
The sage, Shen Zuo, hurriedly said, "Old man, please explain more clearly!"
"Who is the mastermind behind this?!"
"And why did he want to destroy the three holy lands?!"
The giant toad immortal seemed to have fallen asleep again.
He only woke up again when Shima screamed.
"ah----"
"These are the only things I dream about; I can't see the future clearly at all —"
"However—"
"It seems that all the prophecies I made before have been disrupted and broken—"
"And the one who broke them was also someone with powerful eye abilities—"
Jiraiya was startled.
"Has the decision to accept the prophesied child as my disciple also been changed?"
"So, the person with such powerful eyesight really is—"
"Uchiha Chiyu?"
"I once thought Nagato was the child of prophecy, but now it seems he has become the leader of the terrorist organization Akatsuki, and his Rinnegan was not awakened on his own, but was given to him by Madara Uchiha —"
"I once believed that Minato would become the child of prophecy, but he died young during the Nine-Tails' rampage."
"Now, because of Uchiha Chiyu's existence, I have even given up on the path of finding the Child of Prophecy. Without a doubt, he is the one who disrupted and shattered the Great Toad Sage's prophecy—"
"So, he'll also become the culprit behind the destruction of the three holy lands?!"
Fukasaku and Shima both broke out in a cold sweat.
"If it's that man—"
"He truly possesses such power!"
They had all fought against Uchiha Chiba, so they naturally understood how terrifying he was.
Moreover, he is probably a hundred times stronger now than he was back then!
"Grandpa, what should we do?!"
"This is a matter of life and death!"
The Great Toad Sage has lived for a thousand years. Although he is still powerful, his mind has occasionally started to become less sharp.
He squinted and pondered for a moment.
"I'll try to contact the White Snake Sage and the Slug Sage—"
"However, those two also possess the ability to see into the ninja world, so they should have already realized it by now—"
The Great Toad Sage used his telescope technique to contact the leaders of the other two holy lands.
The three holy sites were not on good terms.
They even had a fight.
However, at this moment, the Great Toad Sage also realized that they had to unite against a common enemy.
Soon, the figures of the White Snake Sage and the Slug Sage appeared in the crystal ball.
The White Snake Sage lay coiled on the massive stone bed, his narrow, sinister eyes fixed coldly on the Great Toad Sage. "Gamamaru, is that you?!"
"You old geezer, what do you want by bothering me like this?!"
The Slug Immortal seemed to have anticipated this.
"Great Toad Sage, it seems you had some premonition, didn't you?"
"That aura of destruction—"
The White Snake Immortal's expression also changed.
"Hmph, so it seems you two did sense it after all?"
"Even during the Kaguya Otsutsuki incident, the three holy lands were able to weather the storm unscathed, so what about this time?!"
"Speaking of which, Gamamaru, it's all thanks to you who instigated Kaguya Otsutsuki's two sons to turn against their mother and successfully sealed her away. Otherwise, the three holy lands would probably have been implicated."
"Kaguya Otsutsuki and the Divine Tree have been constantly absorbing the natural energy of the ninja world. If this continues, the three sacred lands will likely wither and be destroyed!"
The Slug Immortal sighed.
"In the end, the three holy lands also monopolized the cultivation methods of natural energy and sage techniques. We still feel guilty about it, which is why we have been choosing suitable candidates to inherit and pass on our sage techniques. It can be considered as giving back to the ninja world."
"Guilt?!"
The White Snake Immortal sneered.
"Don't joke around!"
"We occupied the holy land first, so it's ours. Why should we give it to other races?!"
'
"As for the inherited immortal techniques—hey, I don't care if those reckless humans come to Ryuchi Cave. It's just a pity that so far, no one has been able to withstand the power of my immortal techniques!"
"Without exception, all of these people became food that I devoured—"
The slug sage sighed, "What you've done is far too cruel."
The White Snake Immortal sneered, "Me, cruel?"
"Slug, do you really think Mount Myōboku is some kind of holy land?!"
"Go and see those stone frogs on Mount Myoboku, piled up like mountains!"
"Where do you think those things came from?!"
"Aren't they all just transformed living people?!"
Jiraiya listened intently to the secrets of the three holy lands, utterly shocked. The earth-shattering truths revealed sent chills down his spine.
In his mind, Mount Myōboku was a true sacred place of immortals.
However, it now seems—
I'm afraid the secrets of the three holy lands are definitely not as simple as I imagined.
In this ninja world, even before ninjutsu existed, there were already their own training methods.
That is magic.
However, it now seems that the three holy lands with the most abundant natural energy in the ninja world, which are probably also the only ones that have mastered the inheritance of sage techniques, have all been occupied and monopolized by the Great Toad Sage, the Slug Sage, and the White Snake Sage.
In fact, since then, it has become almost impossible for humans to cultivate immortal arts!
No one has ever succeeded in finding Yongji Cave.
Shikulin himself wasn't quite sure.
But Mount Myōboku, it seems, also received the inheritance, but it is indeed as the White Snake Sage said—
Those piles of stone frogs also tell a chilling and tragic story of the past.
To maintain the continuity of the three holy lands, the Great Toad Sage instigated Kaguya Otsutsuki's two sons to rebel against their mother. For many years, he has also concealed his existence to continue monopolizing the resources and Sage Mode abilities of the holy lands.
For a moment, Jiraiya was in utter turmoil.
Many of these things were unknown even to Shima Fukasaku.
The two had lived for approximately eight hundred years, yet they still remained unaware of the mysteries surrounding Kaguya, the Sage of Six Paths, the Ten-Tails, and the Divine Tree.
The giant toad immortal seemed to be neither asleep nor awake.
Hearing the White Snake Immortal's sarcastic remarks, he was not moved much.
He only spoke after the slug fairy called out to him.
"The White Snake Immortal, his past spanning thousands of years, is ultimately meaningless—"
"Now, the very survival of our three holy lands hinges on an unprecedented alliance—"
The White Snake Immortal sneered, "Why should I join forces with you?"
The Slug Sage hurriedly said, "You should also be able to hear all the information about the ninja world, right?"
"Even the three great holy lands are no match for Uchiha Senba."
The White Snake Immortal roared, "Don't underestimate my power!"
The giant toad immortal suddenly burst into laughter.
"White Snake Immortal, you're still as arrogant and overconfident as ever—"
"Since you've put it that way, why don't you go and fight Uchiha Chiba?"
The White Snake Immortal's expression changed.
"Hmph, you old fox, you want to persuade me to fight for you so that your Mount Myōboku can reap the benefits?!"
"Pah! I'm not falling for that!"
The Slug Fairy smoothed things over.
"Alright, alright, now we have a common enemy, and we must find a way to deal with it together. Let's put aside our past grievances for now—"
"Great Toad Sage, do you have any ideas?"
The giant toad squinted for a moment.
"In terms of absolute strength, I'm afraid even the three of us combined wouldn't be a match for Uchiha Chiba."
"However, in terms of the strength of their subordinates, Konoha Village is not that terrifying."
"We can handle the toad army of Mount Myōboku alone, not to mention the snakes and their offspring in Ryūchi Cave, which are almost endless and countless."
"Although you are the only one in Shikkotsu Forest, you can transform into thousands upon thousands of people and are not afraid of Konoha Village."
"Therefore, the only threat is actually just Uchiha Chiba."
The Slug Sage sighed, "That one person is more terrifying than the entire ninja world—"
The giant toad immortal nodded.
"Therefore, we cannot fight them by force; we can only outsmart them."
"How can we outsmart them?"
"The current Uchiha Chiba is not only the Hokage of Konoha Village, but also the so-called Lord of the Ninja World."
"If we were to negotiate with him using the safety of the entire ninja world as leverage—"
Jiraiya heard it clearly, and his face turned pale instantly!
Is the Great Toad Sage trying to threaten and force Uchiha Chiba to compromise by threatening to destroy the entire ninja world?!
This was completely different from the old, senile, and muddled toad immortal he had imagined—
The White Snake Immortal and the Slug Immortal were both startled!
"You mean—"
"Activate that sealing barrier?!"
Shima Fukasaku couldn't help but ask, "Grandpa, what kind of sealing barrier is this?!"
The Great Toad Sage said, "The three sacred lands are located at the three extreme points of the entire ninja world, gathering the most concentrated and enormous natural energy. They are the hubs for the transformation and circulation of all natural energy, including air, land, and water —"
"In order to ensure that the three holy lands can always maintain their original sacredness, we joined forces in ancient times to form a sealing barrier, trapping the purest natural energy within the three holy lands and preventing it from leaking out."
"This power has been accumulating for over a thousand years. If it were to be unleashed from its seal and become a destructive force, the entire ninja world would likely be unable to withstand it."
"That's truly a world-destroying power!"
Jiraiya exclaimed urgently, "Great Toad Sage, isn't this a bit inappropriate?!"
"If things get out of control, wouldn't the entire ninja world be doomed?!"
The giant toad immortal smiled.
"Little Jiraiya, the fate of the ninja world rests in the hands of Uchiha Chiba, not in ours."
"We were just giving him a choice—"
The White Snake Immortal chuckled coldly, "Fine! Toad Pill, you really are still that old fox! Everyone says I'm sinister and terrifying, but when it comes to cunning and scheming, even the slug and I combined can't compare to you in the slightest!"
"Let's do it that way then!"
The slug fairy hesitated, but finally sighed.
"I just hope that Uchiha Chiba won't really force us to take that step—"
The White Snake Immortal sneered, "Then let's give them a little appetizer first—"
Jiraiya was immediately unsettled and felt an unprecedented sense of panic.
Several days later.
At the Five Shadows Conference.
Onoki reported a horrific tragedy.
"Lord of the Ninja World, a few days ago, a violent explosion suddenly occurred in a remote place outside the Land of Earth. The earth shook, the sky collapsed, and even the entire Land of Earth was shaken."
"My dispatched agents reported that the place was completely reduced to ruins, as if it had been struck by a meteorite. An entire village and a whole family that lived there were all reduced to dust, with no trace of their remains."
"According to intelligence, the family in that village possesses a unique ability to absorb natural energy, but this causes them to go berserk, their power surging and their temperament becoming violent and cruel. Therefore, other villages and families stay away from them, however—"
"Such a force vanished overnight, and even the surrounding villages were affected, suffering countless deaths and heavy casualties—"
Qianyu's heart stirred.
It absorbs and devours natural energy, but will enter a berserk state.
Without a doubt, this is a characteristic of Jugo's curse seal transformation.
In other words, that village and family is where Shigeo was born?
It is located near one of the three sacred sites, Ryuchi-dong!
He immediately asked, "Is it related to Ryuchi Cave?"
Onoki was taken aback, and couldn't help but admire him immensely.
"As expected of the Lord of the Ninja World! He truly knows everything!"
"The secret service received intelligence that a scroll was found in the center of the destroyed village, in a giant crater that has now turned into an abyss. The contents of the scroll are—"
"This is a warning from the three holy lands to human ninjas."
"These powers are just the tip of the iceberg of what we possess."
"Once war breaks out, we will utterly destroy the entire ninja world!"
The Kage of each of the major ninja villages couldn't help but change their expressions drastically!
"Ryuji Cave?!"
"The three holy sites?!"
"How could they actually provoke us?!"
Qianyu had already vaguely guessed it.
This was clearly directed at him.
He sneered, "What a bunch of ignorant beasts!"
Kakashi Hatake said, "Lord of the Ninja World, could this be—"
Qianyu said calmly, "The three holy lands are afraid of my power, so they struck first and tried to threaten me by destroying the entire ninja world."
Everyone's expression changed!
Mei Terumi frowned and asked, "Do the three holy lands really possess such power?"
Nara Shikaku said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid there really is—"
"Legend has it that the three sacred lands existed even in the time of the Sage of Six Paths, with a history spanning over a thousand years. They possess unique sage techniques capable of devouring and absorbing natural energy. If they were to join forces, they could truly destroy the entire ninja world, or at the very least, inflict a terrible price on humanity!"
"Lord of the Ninja World, how should we respond?"
Qianyu stood up gently.
"It's very simple————"
"I will destroy the three holy lands directly."
Everyone was immediately stunned and shocked!
"Lord of the Ninja World, even for you, facing the three great holy lands alone is far too much—"
"What if they threaten to destroy the ninja world?"
Chiyu said calmly, "If we kill them all, we naturally won't be able to destroy the ninja world."
"You may continue your discussion."
"I'll be right back."
Before he could finish speaking...
Chiyu's eyes shone with the light of her three-tomoe Sharingan, and in an instant, Takamagahara was activated once more, her divine domain unfolded, and a spacetime portal immediately appeared—
His figure vanished instantly.
The Konoha leadership, along with the four Kage from the four major ninja villages, looked at each other in astonishment and shock!
Kakashi Hatake smiled slightly.
"It seems the matter is resolved—"
Fugaku Uchiha also gave a cold laugh.
"The three holy lands brought about their own destruction."
Everyone nodded silently.
In the blink of an eye, Chiyu had already teleported to the destroyed village mentioned by Onoki.
The place had indeed been turned upside down, a scene of utter devastation, a complete wasteland.
With his unparalleled insight, he quickly detected the aura of Ryuchi Cave.
What he needs to do is—
Destroy the three holy sites!
-
Yongji-dong is the first one.
Qianyu strode forward and soon arrived at the entrance of Ryuchi Cave, a huge and deep cave that seemed to lead to the bottomless depths of the earth.
The entrance to the cave resembled the gaping maw of a giant serpent, seemingly possessing the power to devour everything.
Without hesitation, Qianyu unleashed her attack.
Yasaka Magatama Thunder Cannon!
In an instant—
One after another, cannonballs filled with violent chakra and the explosive power of lightning burst out, destroying everything in their path and causing the sky to collapse and the earth to crack!
Rumble—
boom!!!
Suddenly, the entire entrance to Ryūchi Cave and the cave itself were shaken violently, with rocks tumbling down, bringing about a true catastrophe!
The White Snake Sage deep within Ryuchi Cave was shocked, but then immediately understood what had happened. His body suddenly soared into the sky, unleashing a burst of violent Sage Chakra that pierced through the earth, flying like a dragon!
"Uchiha Senba! How dare you destroy the gate of Ryuchi Cave!"
"You're asking for it!"
Qianyu stared at him indifferently, as if she were looking at a mudfish or an earthworm.
"Ryuchi Cave, the first to die."
