Chapter 351 The source of danger(1/2)
In the crisp autumn season, the entire Fire Nation has begun to bear the invasion of cold rain, especially at night, it is even more chilly.
Even so, Miaomu Mountain, which is like spring all year round, is still lush and colorful.
Jiraiya, who had not been here for a while, accepted the hospitality of Shima Sennin and Fukasaku Sennin with mixed emotions, and was brought to Toadmaru, the great Toad Sage.
It seems that he did not expect to meet Jiraiya at this time. The elderly Gamamaru obviously has a poor memory. In addition, he often confuses the difference between the reality of "prophetic dreams", so that he always makes trouble in his words.
Lots of jokes.
Of course, none of the people present including Shima Sennin, Fukasaku Sennin and Jiraiya dared to laugh.
After being reminded by Fukasaku Sennin to cough repeatedly, Gamamaru finally woke up and opened his eyes to see the person coming.
"It's little Jiraiya. I haven't seen you for a while. You are much older!"
"Human lifespan is not very long. At my age, my life is almost halfway over!"
"That's right! It always feels like it just changed in an instant."
Gamamaru, who slept most of the time, did not have a keen sense of time. Fortunately, this time he still remembered why he called Jiraiya over.
"I called you here this time because I want to ask what is happening in the ninja world now. Why is it that my dreams are always foggy and filled with many bizarre and bizarre scenes, which makes me very uneasy."
"Uneasy? Is... the child of destiny in danger? During this period, I have indeed neglected to search..."
"It's not about this aspect, but..."
As he spoke, Gamamaru seemed to remember something from the past, he couldn't help but reminisce about it, and for a moment he even forgot about Jiraiya.
After several minutes, Tomamaru came back to his senses and continued:
"The more key figures are connected to the general trend of the ninja world, the clearer they are. The more closely connected they are to me and Mt. Miaomu. The trajectory of the Child of Destiny is still clear, but others are a little unclear. You
Do you know what this means?"
"Please advise!"
"Konoha Village will be in great danger, and we at Myoboku Mountain will also be forced to get involved."
Predictions about things like this, which are related to oneself, are always unclear.
Under normal circumstances, Gamamaru's prophecy dreams rarely make mistakes. In addition to his own influence, there is another situation where someone deliberately conceals it, and his strength is far stronger than Gamamaru.
Either way, it's not good news for Jiraiya.
"Has the future changed?"
Jiraiya asked tentatively, and Gamamaru remained silent for a long time before answering:
"The future depends on the choice of the child of destiny. It doesn't matter whether it changes or not. If the hero who is destined to save this world finally decides to destroy this world that makes him dissatisfied, then... it will be a catastrophe."
"This...will the ninja world choose such a child of destiny? Isn't this not good..."
"Little Jiraiya, you made a mistake. The interests of the ninja world, humans, and our Miaomu Mountain may not be exactly the same. It's like a crop field that has always been planted with rice. Now I'm tired of it and want to shovel it all.
, sow wheat. For the crop land, it actually doesn’t matter, but for rice, it is a disaster.”
"this……"
Jiraiya, who had never thought in this direction before, was stunned for a moment.
In fact, Jiraiya was not good at this kind of direction. After pondering the meaning of the words of the Toad Sage for a long time, Jiraiya suddenly realized,
"Ninja is rice, where is Mt. Myoki?"
"It can barely be regarded as a crucian carp in the rice fields..."
Tomamaru said casually,
"They are all natives raised by the ninja world. If we replace them with wheat, it will be bad for everyone!"
However, to the ninja world, it does not make much difference whether the primate of all things is a human, a wild boar, or an insect.
For the Otsutsuki clan, it doesn't matter, as long as it can provide more natural energy.
Of course, if you can extract rich chakra like a human, have physiological characteristics close to those of the Otsutsuki clan, can withstand the implantation of "Wedge", and can be transformed into a biological weapon like "White Zetsu", then what's more?
Couldn't be more perfect.
To a certain extent, it is also luck that humans can eventually become the overlord of the ninja world.
Kaguya Otsutsuki chose human beings as the main product of the "farm and ranch" of the ninja world. Other stronger races with more advantages can only compete for the remaining auxiliary ecological niches.
Although there is no Otsutsuki clan standing high and managing everything in the ninja world now, even Gamamaru hopes that day will never come back.
But, is that possible?
In the final analysis, ninjas are not real rice, and the toads of Mt. Myoboku are not rice field crucian carp, but rather intelligent species with potential.
Although he was not smart enough to understand all the connotations of Gamamaru's words, Jiraiya asked unconsciously:
"Who does the ninja world belong to? Which existence has the ability to treat this world like a farm?"
"who knows!"
It's been a long time, and Gamamaru feels a little strange. Whether it's the goddess of Ura or the Sage of Six Paths, they all look like people they've met in a previous life.
"Let's not mention these for now, little Jiraiya, tell me, is there anything special happening in the ninja world right now?"
"A big event? No, the Third Ninja World War has ended many years ago, and it has been more than three years since the Uchiha family was wiped out. Occasionally, extremely vicious rebellious ninjas will be wiped out, or conflicts will break out between small countries..."
Jiraiya, who was talking to himself, seemed to suddenly remember something,
"By the way, some time ago, Yun Nin and the Gushan family fought hard, and many people died. Yun Nin seemed to have suffered a great loss, and then gave up."
"There are so many conflicts between human beings."
I didn't hear anything special about it, so I made a few random comments. Then I realized something and asked,
"Gushan family? Which Gushan?"
"Except for the second deputy of the Fire Nation, there is no other ancient cedar in the ninja world who can compete head-on with one of the five major ninja villages, right?"
"He is actually a descendant of them...! Is the Ping family, which is entrenched in Haidong and occupies the sacred land, now called the Gushan family?"
"should be!"
When he was in ninja school, Jiraiya didn't take much history class. He was really not very familiar with ancient history, so he could only answer reluctantly based on hearsay.
"Now, is there anything special about the Gushan family?"
"Nothing unusual was found! The heirs of this generation of the Gushan family are exceptionally good, with strong business capabilities and not weak personal strength! Although most secular nobles are not good at force, with the foundation of the Gushan family, they can cultivate one or two super masters.
It’s also normal. What’s more, this generation of young family governors has received the orthodox ninja education of Konoha Village.”
"That's it!"
Gamamaru, who didn't hear anything unusual, was relieved. The descendants of "Momotaro" back then were all Kaguya Otsutsuki's personal attendants, and they were close confidants. If it weren't for the special status of Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Otsutsuki Hamura, they would be "
The biological sons of the "Goddess of Uzumaki", they are the rulers of the ninja world under one person and above tens of thousands of people.
Kaguya Otsutsuki has been sealed for more than a thousand years. Will those people still dream of rescuing the "Goddess of Uma", restoring the order of that era, and continuing to maintain their position as a master?
Probably not!
With the Uno Goddess, there is still a being above them weighing them down. Now, they are actually the most powerful people in the ninja world, and there is no need to find a god to worship them.
What's more, those people don't have the ability to break the ultimate seal of the birth of the god tree world.
This point can be confirmed by Toad Wan.
If it is not the descendant of "Momotaro", who is making trouble secretly?
"Wait a minute, you just said that the Uchiha were exterminated. What happened to the Senju and Uzumaki?"
Gamamaru, who was a little slow to react, finally discovered the key to Jiraiya's words.
"The Uchiha family? It seems that only two brothers are left. One of them stayed in Konoha Village, and the other defected. There are rumors that there are survivors alive, but there is no evidence. The Senju is still doing well, and it has been there for many years.
Although there were many casualties in the war, most of the tribe members integrated into the village and lived a low-key life. The Uzumaki family suffered a catastrophe decades ago. Many tribesmen were captured and killed, and the country was destroyed. In the past few years, with the support of the Fusagi family, they recovered
The country. Their conflict with Yun Ren is to fight for the control of the country of whirlpool..."
"Tell me carefully about the Uchiha family..."
Next, Jiraiya described in detail what he knew about the night when the Uchiha clan was exterminated, and also mentioned the causes and consequences.
As Jiraiya said, Gamamaru just closed his eyes and listened silently. If he didn't make a snorting sound from time to time, he might be thought to be asleep.
Ten minutes later, Jiraiya stopped after finishing his explanation. Gamamaru also opened his eyes and looked up diagonally blankly, not knowing what he was thinking.
"You are still in contact with that Uchiha Itachi, right? Has he got any news back?"
"Not yet!"
"Contact him more and ask about that mysterious organization! Also, hurry up and find the Child of Destiny. I... have an ominous premonition."
"Dare I ask...where does the danger come from?"
"I don't know, but the Son of Destiny can defeat all evil spirits."
"Understood!"
This time he came in a hurry and discussed with the Great Toad Immortal for so long, which made Jiraiya feel a lot heavier.
To be continued...
