The Great Toad Immortal murmured softly, as if he was starting to remember something.
The children and toad present were waiting there silently.
However, as time passed, Fukasaku and Shima, who knew the Great Toad Sage best, suddenly realized that the Great Toad Sage was not in deep thought, but in a state of self-emptying.
Usually when it is not sleeping, it is always in this state.
"Ahem, the Great Toad Sage, Kotena and Kojirai are also waiting for you to make prophecies." Fukasaku immediately reminded him with a cough.
"Oh, oh." The Great Toad Immortal looked like he suddenly shuddered and came back to his senses immediately.
He looked at Toneri again, but still didn't make a prophecy, but asked: "The little fox and the kitten are both in your body, right?"
Little fox and kitten?
What it is talking about, of course, refers to the nine-tailed nine lamas and the two tails.
In the current ninja world, it is probably the only one who can shout like this.
Shiren nodded and said, "Everyone is here."
The old man's smile appeared on the face of the Great Toad Immortal, "Watch them, don't let them be snatched away."
Hearing this, Toneri narrowed his eyes and said, "Big Toad Immortal, have you dreamed of something crucial?"
This time, the Great Toad Immortal did not hesitate anymore and slowly spoke: "The dark clouds will soon cover the clear sky. People from the past will appear one by one. The trajectory of the world has changed dramatically. The son of prophecy has disappeared. A different world.
The young man embraces the power of nine ferocious beasts."
Jiraiya next to him heard it a little confused, and even Shima and Fukasaku, who knew the Great Toad Sage so well, didn't understand what it was saying for a moment.
But Sheren's eyes narrowed, and he was the only one who understood the meaning of the Big Toad Immortal's words.
My heart was shaking uncontrollably.
If everything else was acceptable to Toneri, then this "boy from another world" really surprised him.
The biggest secret he has is that only he knows, and that is that he is not from this world.
But I didn't expect that this big toad immortal could even sense such things.
At this moment, Shiren suddenly asked himself.
Can he really cultivate the entire ninja cat clan to the level of three holy places like Mt. Myoboku?
Not to mention the scale, the special abilities of the Great Toad Immortal may not be comparable to ordinary psychic beasts.
One by one, they were lost in thought, interpreting the predictions made by the Big Toad Immortal.
"The trace of the child of prophecy has disappeared...the trace of the son of prophecy has disappeared..." Jiraiya kept repeating this sentence, and finally looked at the giant toad sage with disbelief.
"Big Toad Immortal, are you saying that the Son of Prophecy is gone? Or are you saying that the Son of Prophecy has passed away?"
"Um..."
However, the Great Toad Immortal did not give a positive answer. After a gentle "hmm", his breathing became calmer, and it seemed that he should have fallen into a deep sleep again.
"Big Toad Immortal! Big Toad Immortal!" Jiraiya shouted quickly.
However, he was stopped by Fukasaku and Shima.
"Little Jiraiya, there's no need to shout. The big toad sage must have fallen asleep after saying that. No matter how you shout, it won't wake up. If you have anything to ask, wait until the next time the big toad sage wakes up.
, I will call you again." Fukasaku Sennin said immediately.
"Yes, Jiraiya-chan, this time Fukasaku-sennin waited for you and Toneri-chan, but he persisted for a long time." Shima-sennin also said.
"But... what does it mean that the Son of Destiny Light has disappeared? Is the Son of Prophecy really dead?" Jiraiya looked very confused.
There was no way, since Jiraiya came to Mt. Myoboku, he had been working hard for the prophecy of the Great Toad Immortal for the rest of his life, looking for the son of the prophecy in the mouth of the Great Toad Immortal.
In any case, this child of prophecy is his obsession for the rest of his life, so it's no wonder he showed such an expression at this time.
Not only him, but Toneri next to him also looked thoughtful at this time.
"Little Jiraiya, it's better not to worry about it. If you don't understand, it's better to ask Xiao Toneri what he means. This prophecy is mainly aimed at him. If you ask him, he might be able to give you some answers.
"Sennin Fukasaku advised.
Hearing this, Jiraiya's eyes lit up, "Toneri, do you know what the prophecy said by the Great Toad Immortal is?"
His meditation was interrupted by Jiraiya. Toneri glanced at him, but he also understood why he was so anxious.
"This prophecy is not difficult to understand. It means literally. The son of prophecy has disappeared. It should not be the death of the son of prophecy. It may be that the son of prophecy did not appear due to some special reasons." Sheren said solemnly.
"Didn't show up? What do you mean?"
Toneri rolled his eyes at him angrily, why couldn't he understand?
In fact, it's not that Jiraiya doesn't understand, it's just that he's not sure that the child of prophecy he's been looking for is already here, what should he do with them in the future?
Toneri didn't want to say more, and bowed slightly towards Fukasaku and Shima, "Fukasaku-sennin, Shima-sennin, thank you two immortals, and also please help me and the great toad-sennin say thank you."
"My dear, don't you stay for a meal? My mother has specially prepared a delicious meal." Fukasaku Sennin tried to persuade him.
Thinking of the food in Miaomu Mountain, Toneri couldn't help but tremble in his heart, and showed a slightly ugly smile, "It still can't be done, next time, the time to leave Konoha is not short, there are still many things to deal with,
How about we let Jiraiya, the old pervert, stay for dinner."
Jiraiya, who was still struggling at first, suddenly stopped worrying when he heard that he wanted to stay for dinner. He immediately waved his hands and said, "I'd better forget it, next time. I just came back from the battlefield.
Came here with Toneri."
Hearing this, Fukasaku and Shima immediately showed disappointed expressions on their faces.
Fukasaku also patted Shima's shoulder gently and said comfortingly: "Damn it, the children have grown up and have their own lives. Let them go. We will call Bunta's children over later.
Little Jiraiya, little Toneri, when you are free in the future, you must come to eat..."
"Okay, okay."
The two of them continued to respond, dispelled the reverse channeling technique, and left Miaomu Mountain.
After they left, the Great Toad Immortal who was supposed to have fallen asleep opened his eyes again.
The yellow eyes were full of depth, looking at the place where Toneri was standing just now.
"Brother, your power has begun to drift away..."
...
"It was such a close call. I escaped back."
Jiraiya gently wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Shiren glanced at him, shook his head and said nothing.
As if noticing Toneri's gaze, Jiraiya remembered that there was one very important thing he had not asked.
"By the way, Toner, how do you interpret the Big Toad Immortal's prophecy?"
Toneri, who was sitting just now, heard his words and thought a little about what he should say.
"Actually, it is not a particularly difficult prophecy to interpret. What the Great Toad Immortal basically means is that a terrifying force is preparing to destroy or engulf the world, and it may be because the time has been advanced, so you were originally looking for
It's too late for the son of the prophecy to grow up." Shiren leaned on the table with his hands, looking solemn.
"Why are people from the past appearing one after another?" Jiraiya asked again.
"People in the past should be those who have passed away, or people we think should have passed away, such as Madara Uchiha who fought with me not long ago."
Speaking of Uchiha Madara, Jiraiya's expression also became a little solemn.
Although he was not in Konoha on the battlefield and did not see the battle between Toner and Uchiha Madara with his own eyes, he still heard some rumors.
"Uchiha Madara, is he really not dead?" Jiraiya hesitated when he asked this question.
Toneri shook his head and nodded, "I originally thought he should be dead, but when I heard this prophecy from the Great Toad Immortal, I felt like he wasn't dead yet... Or rather, he was dead, but
Alive again."
"Resurrection from the dead? No one has this ability...unless..."
Suddenly thinking of something, Jiraiya's pupils shrank suddenly.
"Don't leave yet."
Seeing him turning around and about to leave, Toneri stretched out his hand to stop him.
He continued: "I know what you are going to do, but this matter is too dangerous. I will go there myself. I think the most important thing you should do now is to bring Sister Tsunade back."
"Tsunade?" Jiraiya was stunned.
"Don't you think Tsunade-san has been away from Mu for too long? It's time for her to come back.
If the prediction of the Great Toad Sage is true, then within three years at most, a major disaster belonging to this world will happen, and Konoha needs the power of Sister Tsunade."
Jiraiya remained silent, feeling tangled in his heart.
On the one hand, he wanted to see the three children who he once regarded as the real children of prophecy and taught them carefully for three years.
If there is really someone in this world who can resurrect all those who have passed away, then perhaps the only one who has the same eyes as the Six Paths Sage is the Samsara Eye.
But on the other hand, to be honest, he really wanted to bring Tsunade back. After all, if the prophecy came true, her power would be indispensable to Konoha.
Of course, the importance of these two things is not directly proportional, but because of some thoughts in his mind, this became what he was struggling with.
"You may not know that after the Second Ninja War ended, I accepted three disciples in the Rain Country...one of them..."
Toneri stood up and slowly took off his white divine robe, "I know, the Samsara Eye."
"Do you know about the reincarnation eye?!"
"That's why I said, leave this matter to me. I understand the danger of this matter better than you, and all you need to do is to bring Sister Tsunade back." After taking off the god-controlling robe, Toneri said
What he was wearing was already a combat uniform.
"Call Uncle Lu Xin and Lu Jiu." Toneri said again.
A voice came from the corner, "Yes!"
Not long after, the father and son Nara Shikakushin and Nara Shikaku came back.
Neither Toner nor Jiraiya told them about this prophecy. After all, it was still an uncertain matter for the time being, and there was no need to make it known to everyone.
However, as Hokage, some important decisions can be made in advance.
Originally, after the Third Ninja War ended, there was a long period of recuperation and recuperation. Konoha was very experienced in this.
In terms of recovery ability, Konoha ranks first in the entire ninja world, and there are probably not many people who would dare to claim to be second.
However, this traditional recovery method is still a bit slow and cannot meet the requirements of Sheren.
So he called Nara Shikakushin and Nara Shikaku, with the purpose of hoping that the father and son could cooperate well and not only restore Konoha as quickly as possible, but also improve it to a higher level.
For example, after the war, the difficulty of early graduation from Konoha Ninja School would be greatly increased, but now it seems that as long as the strength is up to standard, there is no need to waste time in Ninja School.
If you should graduate early, graduate early.
Although the two of them didn't know why Toneri would issue such an order similar to the wartime system, out of trust in Toneri, the two of them nodded and accepted the matter.
"That's it, I will leave for a while, and you can tell my shadow clone if you have anything to do."
Everyone was accustomed to Sheren's way of doing things, so they nodded and said nothing.
"Old pervert, I'll leave Sister Tsunade's affairs to you. I happen to be going to Sand Hidden Village. I will investigate when I pass by. Don't let Sister Tsunade down..."
Tsunade and Jiraiya were both quite young, and Tonerikaku felt that as a junior, he still had to lend a little strength when it was time to help.
After explaining these things, he directly chose to leave.
At this time, he felt fortunate that the original control of the Three-Tails caused it to be hacked to death by Uchiha Madara's Susanoo. Resurrection would take at least three years. It had only been less than a year now, and they still had time.
Leaving Konoha quietly, not many people knew that their Hokage had left Konoha again.
Toneri is still very reassured about the current safety of Konoha.
In Konoha now, there are Namikaze Minato, Uzumaki Kushina, Sarutobi Hiruzen, Orochimaru, new and old Ino Shikacho, the two Hyuga brothers, and Uchiha Fugaku. When Jiraiya takes Tsuna
With his hand back, it can be said that his strength is unprecedentedly strong, and he is not worried about the first-line attack at all, so he is very relieved.
...
Returning to the Land of Rain again, the dim sky and humid environment remained unchanged.
The dark clouds above the Land of Rain will basically not dissipate for two or three years.
This time, Toneri felt that the dark clouds in the Land of Rain not only blocked the sky, but also felt that it had become thicker, making people feel slightly out of breath.
When he just entered the Kingdom of Rain, two members of the Roots appeared in front of him.
"Hokage-sama!"
Toneri nodded and looked towards the direction of Yuyin Village in the distance.
"Nothing special happened in Yuyin Village, right?"
Ever since Sanshouyu Hanzo died in his own hands last time, Toneri has controlled several high-level officials of the original Amegakure Village and completely taken control of the entire Amegakure Village.
However, when he wanted to take Nagato's blood last time, he agreed to divide and conquer the entire Rain Hidden Village, or the Country of Rain.
As long as he has the ability, Konoha and the Akatsuki organization will each assume half of the control and management of Amegakure Village.
The person responsible for helping Konoha manage seems to be the original high-level executive of Amegakure Village, but in fact, he is already the root of Toneri.
Ame Hidden Village says that it is still a hidden village, but it is better to say that it has become an important base outside Konoha.
The environment of the Land of Rain and the original ninja training foundation of the Rain Hidden Village make the entire Rain Hidden Village an excellent base for training ninjas.
When Hanzo was still there, assassination was what the Rain ninjas were best at, and this was also one of the sources of income that Rain Hidden Village relied on for its survival.
After Hanzo's death, Amegakure Village still retained this tradition.
So after Toneri took over this place, he specially selected some members from the rain ninja to become outside staff at the root.
Although he is not a ninja of Konoha, as long as he is brainwashed, he will be absolutely loyal to Toneri.
Anyway, many of the roots are orphans from other countries, and the root ninja's first allegiance is never Konoha, but Toneri, the leader of the roots.
The original identities of these outsiders from Yuyin Village are not important.
For the root members, they have no past and future, no feelings or thoughts of their own. All they have is the current task given by others.
"Everything is normal in Yuyin Village, but the relationship between the side managed by the Akatsuki organization and us is becoming more and more clear, and the dividing line is also quite clear. No matter what method we use, as soon as we cross the dividing line, people from the Akatsuki organization will also be there.
Appeared in front of us for the first time."
Hearing this, Shiren narrowed his eyes, took a step forward, and rushed towards Yuyin Village.
The two root members followed closely behind him.
"I have already achieved this level. If Nagato and Yahiko can still be fooled by Black Zetsu and Uchiha Obito, then I will really be convinced." Toneri thought silently in his heart.
Why did you want to save Yahiko in the first place?
Isn't it just to prevent Nagato from turning evil?
Moreover, although Yahiko said that his strength is not very outstanding, he still has some brains. The reason for keeping him is to let him watch over Nagato and prevent Nagato from being deceived by Black Zetsu and Obito.
However, according to the predictions of the Great Toad Sage and the news about the root members, Toneri feels that the Akatsuki organization may have fallen into the control of Uchiha Obito and Black Zetsu in the end.
This made him very irritable.
I even slightly regretted why I didn't try desperately to kill Nagato.
But there was no use regretting it. The situation at that time did not allow him to kill Nagato.
First, Nagato had completely activated the power of the Samsara Eye after being stimulated to summon the heretic demon.
You know, this is the Samsara Eye. Once Nagato explodes, even if Naruto enters the Nine Lama mode and Rabbi Riki of the Eight-Tails joins forces, they will not be able to defeat Nagato, who will be integrated into the Six Paths and Outer Paths in the future.
If he exploded, Shiren couldn't guarantee that he would be able to leave alive.
The second reason is that he is not a murderous person.
He knows how to kill, but the people he kills are usually heinous, hostile, or simply a major obstacle to his progress, or to remove the obstacle.
But at that time, the three Nagatos were still young people striving for their ideals immaturely. He couldn't...
Okay, I won’t make it up. The truth is that he didn’t dare to guarantee that he could beat Nagato who was in good physical condition and had awakened the Samsara Eye.
