Konoha: I, Naruto, will eat the Forest-Forest Fruit!

In the blink of an eye, the black and purple mist conjured by the demon had almost completely dissipated.

It went from initial insults and threats to begging for mercy.

Naruto shook his head, and with one hand, grabbed that ferocious face.

click-

The demon formed from the black and purple mist shattered completely, and at the same time, Naruto completely absorbed the demon's magic power and primal power.

Looking back at Ziyuan, whose face was pale and who seemed to have collapsed, she lay on the ground.

"This indirectly proves that magic and Kurama's chakra after using Ninjutsu are similar in nature."

"It is highly dependent, even parasitic."

"However, a trace of primordial power can solve this."

As he spoke, Naruto bent down and picked up the weak Shion.

At the same time, a faint, pure source of magic flowed into Ziyuan's body.

In an instant, Shion began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"So warm...ah~"

Naruto carried her outside; the underground palace had already begun to collapse.

The volcano is about to erupt.

Neither in his past life nor now has he ever witnessed a volcanic eruption, so naturally he wouldn't miss it.

Holding Shion, Naruto flew to a nearby mountaintop and channeled a wisp of his magical energy into his Baihui acupoint.

A nutrient cluster was injected into his Baihui acupoint.

Instantly, the previously dim nutrient cluster emitted a dazzling light, similar to the light emitted when Shion transformed.

This nourishment naturally came from Shion's mother, Miroku, whose physical body had disappeared, leaving only her soul.

Naruto placed Shion on a rock.

(Please remember 1219.m.k.com for the fastest chapter updates.)

"Your mother has a chance to be resurrected."

"What?"

Rumbling--

At that moment, the volcano erupted.

This interrupted their conversation.

Naruto sat down as well, and Shion naturally moved closer to him.

A distant volcano erupted, spewing out large amounts of lava like fireworks.

The animals near the volcano had all fled long ago because of the appearance of the ghostly army of terracotta warriors.

At this moment, in addition to the spectacular scene of the volcanic eruption, there is also the sight of countless plants jumping out of the ground, their branches carrying countless tiny roots as they run away.

Ziyuan's eyes widened.

I've never even heard of such a thing, let alone seen it.

Especially at this moment, a towering tree behind them extended a wooden hand, which transformed into a long bench when it reached below them, pushing them high into the air to an excellent viewing spot.

"this..."

Gollum~

Ziyuan swallowed hard, and it took her a while to accept this thing that was beyond her comprehension.

"That way, the silly shrine maiden won't keep talking about fate and such, right?"

Naruto turned his head and chuckled.

Looking at Naruto's handsome face, Shion blushed under the influence of her "Princess Killer" buff.

Nuonuo said softly, "What creates demons in this world is the evil mind of humankind. No one can guarantee that a second demon won't appear."

"Especially those with great strength...especially genin."

Ok?

Naruto blinked. "Oh yeah, I think I'm still a genin..."

Oh no, the genin of Konoha are really not to be messed with.

"That silly shrine maiden has suddenly become much more quick-witted."

Naruto gently stroked her little head and shook his head, saying:

"Wraiths are not born from inner evil, but you are right, wraiths can indeed appear, for example, from you... or from me."

Ziyuan blinked and said playfully, "Then I will never say that fate is a curse again."

"However... I am still a priestess, and until you can eradicate the problem here... I will continue to protect the connection between the two worlds."

Then, Shion turned her eyes away, not daring to look at Naruto, and whispered:

"And... I want to pass on my power to the next priestess..."

Finally, he simply closed his eyes and said, "Naruto... can you lend me your power?"

If Kushina were here, she might say without hesitation, "You have to wait in line."

Now, Naruto looked at Shion, whose eyes were closed and whose eyelashes were trembling.

......

at the same time.

After Naruto absorbed the body and soul of the demon.

All three holy lands noticed the disappearance of the demon realm's aura.

Why did it turn out like this?

The White Snake Immortal slowly exhaled a puff of smoke.

Its brow furrowed. "When exactly did Naruto Uzumaki show up?"

"Why was there no warning at all... In just half a year, the entire ninja world has undergone earth-shattering changes."

"Those two, Orochimaru and Kabuto, won't even listen to me anymore."

"No, I need to prepare earlier."

"Princess Tashin, Princess Ichikishima, and Princess Mizutsu, come here!"

"This time, we must befriend that toad before it does."

"Heh... No, according to the information Kabuto sent earlier, it seems that the human that the old toad tricked is not well-liked in Konoha."

"Then we only need to be wary of the Shikkotsu Forest."

Before long, the three snake-aunts, Tashin-hime, Ichikishima-hime, and Mizutsu-hime, arrived.

"You guys discuss it and try to get all the intelligence from the outside world during this period."

"The key point is Konoha...information about Naruto Uzumaki."

"I want everything, big and small!"

Aunt Three Snakes quickly replied, "Yes!"

......

On the other side, within Shikkuburi, one of the three great holy sites.

Even the colossal slug immortal noticed the anomaly.

"It's Naruto-sama's aura... So the demon wasn't sealed away... Was it destroyed by Naruto-sama?"

The slug glanced at the countless towering trees in the Wet Bone Forest.

Looking up, it seemed as if there was no sky in the Wet Bone Forest, and the towering trees seemed to consist only of trunks.

"Great... I made the right bet this time, Shikkotsu-lin."

"Gamamaru found the child created by Kaguya Otsutsuki before we did... Mount Myōboku lost its worship power, but it gained the recognition of the Ninja Cult and has been very active in the ninja world in recent years."

"Like Ryuchi Cave, Shikkotsu Forest was also targeted by Mt. Myoboku without the speed to act."

"It's a pity that the Uzumaki clan is gone... Mito brought Hashirama Senju... but now, the Senju clan is gone too."

"However, of the three holy lands, my Shibku Forest has the best chance right now."

The slug sage thought for a long time, and then split into countless small slugs.

"Lord Naruto hasn't signed a summoning contract yet. I must get it done so that Hagoromo Otsutsuki will no longer protect Mount Myōboku in the Pure Land!"

......

Meanwhile, inside Mount Myoboku.

Jiraiya was summoned by Fukasaku through a reverse spiritual connection.

"Yo, Jiraiya, it's been a long time."

Gamabunta greeted him.

Gama Ken and Gama Hiro, who were standing nearby, raised their wine glasses at the same time and drank them down in one gulp.

Below the three large toads, there were two smaller toads stealing wine.

Jiraiya nodded slightly and then quickly looked at Fukasaku.

"Lord Fukasaku, please take me to see the Great Toad Sage."

Fukasaku and Shima exchanged a glance. "Come with me."

With that, he jumped toward the residence of the Great Toad Sage, Gamamaru.

Jiraiya followed behind the two frogs.

After passing through layers of guards, they arrived in front of Gamamaru, whose eyes were closed as if he were fast asleep.

"Ha~"

"Phew~"

"You old fool! Jiraiya's here!"

"Oh dear, honey, don't stop me."

Shima blurted out something without thinking, but Fukasaku stopped him.

Fukasaku looked at it helplessly and shook his head.

He was awake before coming out, but by the time he picked up Jiraiya, the Great Toad Sage had fallen asleep again.

"Ah... oh, it's little Jiraiya~"

After a bit of arguing, Gamamaru seemed to remember something.

"I saw the future..."

"Naruto Uzumaki...he's not the child of prophecy..."

"Everything he's doing now... will eventually bring an irresistible enemy to the ninja world, and will lead to its destruction... You must stop him."
