Chapter 81 Confusion and Fog (Fourth update! Please give me a monthly ticket!)

"Myoboku Mountain".

Naruto has never tried to understand this place.

He is only interested in the "Summoning Technique" itself. As for those toads, to be honest, they are not good-looking enough and their strength is relatively average.

They have no effect in his own battle.

As for the "Sage Mode" related to Myoboku Mountain, he does have some interest.

However, the importance of learning it is lower than what he is doing, so he has never learned it.

But now, do we have to deal with these guys?

He picked up a pen to write a letter and made an appointment with Jiraiya.

Three days later, in a snack shop in a small town on the border of the Land of Fire.

"After not seeing you for a year, Naruto, you have grown taller." Jiraiya lowered his head and looked at the blond boy in front of him, sighing.

He paused and praised again: "This dress is also very beautiful."

It is much better than Minato's aesthetics.

It seems that he inherited his mother's good genes in this regard.

"Teacher Jiraiya has not changed much." Naruto raised his hand and asked him to sit down.

Jiraiya scratched his head and laughed: "At my age, what else can I change?"

"I just hope that before I die, I can do more useful things and make up for some of my past regrets."

He took the tea handed by Karin, restrained his smile, and said seriously: "You said in the letter that you want to go to Myoboku Mountain. Do you want to prepare to practice Sage Mode?"

"I think it might be better if you postpone your study for a few years."

It's not that Naruto doesn't need to practice.

The problem is "age".

The first thing to do in Sage Mode is to balance your own spiritual energy and physical energy. On this basis, you can mix it with natural energy and achieve a balanced state of the three. Only then can you be considered successful in practice.

Naruto is still young now. Although he is already very strong, his chakra, body, and even spiritual energy will continue to grow.

The "balance" mastered this year may be "destroyed" by the growth next year, and the results of practice will be wasted.

When the body develops steadily and you are sixteen or seventeen years old, it will be more appropriate to try to learn again.

"It's not for the Sage Mode." Naruto shook his head and smiled slightly, "I want to ask the Great Toad Sage something."

Jiraiya was stunned.

Looking for the Great Toad Sage?

"Do you want it to predict for you?" Jiraiya was not puzzled as to why Naruto knew about the "Great Toad Sage". In the circle of summoning beasts, the three holy places are sacred and supreme existences. The rumors about them are not secrets, but the strength is not at a certain level, and there is no way to know them.

Naruto shook his head again: "I heard that the Great Toad Sage has lived for thousands of years, and I want to ask it about some things related to history, gods, and pure land."

The legend of the Six Paths Sage seems to be more than a thousand years ago.

This answer did not surprise Jiraiya.

He has heard that Naruto has been looking for "gods" for this year.

Others don't understand what he wants to do, but he knows it very well.

"Then I'll take you there." Jiraiya nodded and agreed immediately. After communicating with the toads of Myoboku Mountain, he continued to say to Naruto, "Don't resist later. This is a normal technique."

"Myoboku Mountain is too far away from here. It will be more convenient to use the summoning technique."

After he finished speaking.

Naruto immediately caught a trace of chakra fluctuations, emerging from under him. He reached out in time to grab Karin and released his chakra to wrap her.

"Reverse summoning technique."

The formation unfolded and took him and Karin away.

Jiraiya was a step late and was also teleported away.

A flash of white smoke.

The scenery in the field of vision changed.

The mountains rose from the ground, the waterfalls rushed down, and in the distance were tall single-leaf broadwoods. Some huge toads were resting and playing here, and under the cover of these broadwoods, several huge houses that looked like insects could be vaguely seen.

It made people feel as if they were being shrunk.

"How is it? It's very shocking, isn't it?" Jiraiya said with a smile, his tone somewhat proud, "This is Mount Myōboku, one of the three holy places."

Naruto nodded and looked to the side.

There were two breaths approaching over there.

The chakra was a little weak, but the body contained powerful natural energy.

They were two frogs wearing cloaks.

"Jiraiya, is this the kid you mentioned?" The frog with three tufts of white hair on its head and green skin greeted.

"Why is there a little red-haired girl?" The purple-skinned frog next to him looked at Karin.

Naruto replied: "I brought them here. I was worried about her being alone outside."

Jiraiya introduced them to each other as a middleman.

The male toad was named "Fukasaku" and the female toad was named "Shima". They were elders of Mount Myōboku and both had the name "Sage".

"Grandpa agreed to meet you." Fukasaku waved his hand gently and led the way, "Follow me."

They climbed the steps, walked into the temple behind them, and entered a large room.

At the end of the room, there is a throne with the word "Xian" written on it.

A big orange toad sits on it.

It wears a square hat and a necklace with the word "You" on it, giving it an "extremely old" look.

"Who is coming?" Feeling the approach of the breath, it trembles and speaks like an old man in his twilight years, unconscious.

"It's me, Jiraiya." Jiraiya answers, "And Uzumaki Naruto, Minato's child."

"This time he wants to ask you something."

The big toad sage nodded, turned his head, and when he saw Naruto, his eyes suddenly opened a little, as if he noticed something, revealing yellow eyeballs: "Uzumaki Naruto?"

"What an interesting child."

"What do you want to know?"

Naruto looked up at it and raised his voice: "I want to know what natural energy and chakra are."

"I also want to know about those gods, preferably the gods of death."

"I also want to know about the information about the Pure Land."

The big toad sage tilted his head lazily: "You have so many questions."

"Let me think about how to answer you."

It thought and was silent, motionless and silent, looking like it had fallen asleep.

Naruto waited patiently.

Karin was not so patient and pulled Naruto's sleeve.

Until the three toad sages were almost impatient.

The big toad sage continued: "This is a very old story. At that time, I was just a little toad."

"In this world, there was no such energy as "chakra"."

"There is only natural energy called "sage power."

"The gods are creatures that control the sage power and are worshipped by humans. They once controlled many natural powers."

"But suddenly one day, a sacred tree fell from the sky, and then the woman came here."

"She fell in love with the king at that time and gave birth to the Six Paths Sage."

Naruto listened carefully.

Jiraiya also heard these things for the first time, and his expression was serious.

"But that woman's ambition seems to be more than just becoming the queen. She tried to get the power of the sacred tree, so she turned the king and his people into sacrifices for the sacred tree."

"The Six Paths Sage couldn't bear to see humans suffer, so he mastered the power of chakra, defeated his mother, sealed her on the moon, and sent the sacred tree away from this world to save people."

"After that, in order to repair the barren land, the Six Paths Sage traveled around the world and sealed those gods, including the God of Death. After that, he founded the Ninja Clan."

"These are the first two things you want to know."

At this point, the Great Toad Sage paused.

Naruto frowned.

Karin skillfully took out the scroll and recorded what he had just heard.

They knew the legend that the Six Paths Sage founded the "Ninja Clan", but they didn't expect that there was such a story before that.

So. The records of the Uzumaki clan were not wrong.

The God of Death is indeed an older existence than the Six Paths Sage.

No wonder they could only hear legends about gods along the way, but could not meet gods. It turned out that they were all sealed by the Six Paths Sage.

Is it the same for the "God of Death"?

The Great Toad Sage continued: "As for the third thing you want to know, the thing called Pure Land."

"I don't know about it."

"The only thing that is certain is that when I was young, I heard about the existence of the God of Death and the King of Hell, but there was no rumor of Pure Land."

Naruto pondered this sentence.

So, this Pure Land was created by the Six Paths Sage?

The power that he had sensed on the dead before, the power that pulled their souls, came from the Six Paths Sage?

The doubts in his heart were slightly resolved.

Naruto thanked the Great Toad Sage: "Thank you very much for answering these questions for me."

The Great Toad Sage shook his head, staring at Naruto, and remained silent.

Naruto and Karin retreated. They had no intention of visiting Myoboku Mountain at the moment, and were sent away by the two toads.

Jiraiya has not left yet.

"Big Toad Sage, is Naruto the child of prophecy?" he asked.

Big Toad Sage shook his head: "Little Jiraiya, you need to find the answer."

Jiraiya stopped talking.

"But I saw something different in this boy." Big Toad Sage continued.
