After hearing the meaning of Lei Luo's words, Fukasaku pondered for a moment and asked softly.
"Yes." Lei Luo replied briefly. Although his tone was a little reluctant, his eyes were completely firm.
It has been more than half a year since I left Konoha. During this short period of time, I have been receiving letters from Nono Uto and Shima one after another, and I have always been aware of the situation in the village.
I have grasped it, but I still can’t let go without seeing it with my own eyes.
Even if the combination of natural energy and countercurrent still has great potential for cultivation, even if the cultivation of the four inner images to increase their own quality has not yet begun, even if the immortal mode still has a lot of room for improvement, but...
The vacation of more than half a year has come to an end.
Konoha cannot live without the Hokage, especially as the helmsman of the reform plan. Being absent from the village for a long time will inevitably make the village ninjas feel uneasy. What's more, there is currently a very urgent matter waiting for Lei Luo to deal with personally.
"Okay, Lei Luo, I'll take you to see the Great Toad Immortal again, and then Shima will channel you back."
Seeing that Lei Luo had made up his mind, Fukasaku didn't say much at the moment. He just gave a hurried response and ran towards the main hall in three steps and two steps, obviously preparing to wake up the Great Toad Immortal.
When he was about to leave, he said goodbye to his host's family, as this was what he should do. Lei Luo saw Fukasaku running into the distance, thought about it, and followed suit.
There is no need to go into details about the process of saying goodbye to the Great Toad Sage. It is also unknown how Fukasaku contacted Shima and Lei Luo. In short, during the waiting time after all the preparations were completed and he was about to accept the reverse psychic summons...
At the door of the main hall, looking at Old Toad Fukasaku who had a look of reluctance on his face but still pretended to be nonchalant, he lowered his head and thought for a moment, then took the initiative to talk:
"Fukasaku Sennin, thank you very much for the past six months."
After practicing for more than half a year, and it was the kind of intensive training that eliminated the interference of external objects, Lei Luo never left Miaomu Mountain, and naturally, he never left Fukasaku's side.
Humans are not ruthless, but no matter how hard-hearted Lei Luo is, facing Fukasaku's devoted and dedicated teachings, that old face full of ardent expectations will naturally be touched in his heart.
Strictly speaking, Fukasaku should be regarded as his first teacher since time travel. This kind of affection cannot be compared to Orochimaru's short-term training, Danzo, and Uzumaki Makoto giving various ninjutsu sealing scrolls.
After coming to this world for so many years, and experiencing so much bloodshed and countless conspiracies, Lei Luo has always felt that his emotions are relatively lacking:
Mixed with various interests and superior-subordinate relationships, it is not pure friendship.
Either it has a beginning but no end, or it is an imperfect love that is forced to develop by current events.
And a family relationship that is complete on the surface but is actually extremely incomplete, and it is hard to tell whether one agrees or disagrees, and is self-deceptive.
Even though his strength is invincible, even though his position of power is unmatched, even though the entire ninja world respects and fears him and praises his name, no one dares to stand in his way, even though...
But Lei Luo suddenly discovered:
In the process of getting to where we are today step by step, while continuing to push forward regardless of everything...
It seems that he has never looked back at the scenery around him, and he has never seriously realized the little things that life has brought to him.
Until now, during the last period of time when he was about to say goodbye to Fukasaku, Lei Luo suddenly realized: Are his requirements for himself too strict, too harsh?
Looking at Fukasaku quietly, noticing the strong teacher-student affection emerging in his heart, Lei Luo's first feeling was that it was ridiculous, and his second feeling was that of pathetic.
During this trip to Miaomu Mountain and the half-year practice, for him, is the most important thing really the sage mode?
Taking a deep breath, Lei Luo suppressed the tumbling complex emotions and opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say next.
Fukasaku, on the other hand, didn't seem to notice the expression on Lei Luo's face. After sighing softly, the old toad adhered to his consistent principles and babbled:
"Lei Luo, although you are very strong, and there are probably no enemies in the ninja world that you need to help you deal with, but if you have the chance, you should summon more of them."
"Even if it doesn't work out, you can also summon Wentai, Zhong, Jian and the others. It's always beneficial to have multiple helpers. After all, you know that big guys can always..."
Fukasaku's look at this moment was both exhorting and looking for something to say. Lei Luo was silent for a moment, and then a faint smile appeared on his face. It was a rare smile that came from the heart:
"Fukasaku Sennin, I understand."
After the words fell, before Fukasaku could reply, a cloud of white smoke exploded around Lei Luo, and his figure disappeared without a trace in an instant. Apparently, he was channeled by Shima Ni.
As the guests from Myobokuyama left, Fukasaku's short figure stood in front of the main hall for a long time, and finally left slowly as time passed.
For Fukasaku, although Lei Luo is one of the countless Sage Mode practitioners he has taught during his more than eight hundred years of life, Lei Luo is essentially different from any human being who comes to Miaomu Mountain to practice.
same.
This difference does not stem from Lei Luo's blood inheritance, nor does it stem from Lei Luo's status, nor does it stem from the different treatment of the Great Toad Immortal.
The only difference between Lei Luo and other ninjas can be summarized as follows:
Fukasaku had never seen a ninja who was the most powerful in the ninja world before practicing Sage Mode, and who could even improve his strength to an unheard-of, almost unprecedented level after successfully practicing Sage Mode.
The magnetic field rotates...
Every time he thought about this technique, which could not only activate the sage mode, but also improve his physical fitness ten times or even dozens of times, Fukasaku couldn't help but feel shocked. He felt that the opponent was simply not a human being.
Before developing the magnetic field rotation, when he had just successfully cultivated the Immortal Mode, Lei Luo once asked how far his strength had reached.
At that time, Fukasaku did not answer because he thought that he did not know Lei Luo's various trump cards, so he did not make any rash comments. In short, he adhered to the principle of caution and objectivity and did not make big claims.
And after developing the magnetic field rotation and developing this technique that seemed to have no upper limit, Fukasaku didn't know how to answer it anymore, because based on the countless ninjas he had seen in his more than eight hundred years of experience, there was no such thing.
One person can match Lei Luo's strength.
Even the former ninja god Senju Hashirama, Fukasaku could not tell whether the legendary ninja was stronger or weaker than Lei Luo, but what is certain is that based on physical skills alone, Senju Hashirama is definitely not Lei Luo's.
opponent.
In front of a monster that can fly through the air with physical strength alone, reach speeds of Mach 20, blow up mountains with a single punch, and cause earthquakes with a single kick, even Senju Hashirama might feel helpless.
