Naruto: The whole world knows I am the savior

Chapter 36 Reminds Jiraiya

The magic of the Wet Bone Forest requires practitioners to have strong regenerative abilities, otherwise they will not be able to resist its extremely strong corrosion. In the Wet Bone Forest, apart from the cave pillars, there is no other life, because they have all been corroded and decomposed.

However, once successfully trained, Shikkotsu Forest will also grant the cultivator powerful recovery abilities and long-lasting endurance. The Sage Chakra of Shikkotsu Forest will greatly increase the cultivator's own recovery speed.

Under the same conditions, if the Sage Mode of the other two Holy Lands can only be maintained for five minutes, then the Sage Mode of Shikkotsu Forest can be maintained for fifteen minutes.

Shikkotsu Forest doesn't have any specific sage techniques; it only has one very obvious characteristic: 'digestion'.

After using Sage Mode in Shikkotsu Forest, when fighting an enemy, if your body or Sage Chakra touches the opponent, it will cause a corrosive injury on the enemy's body. This feature will also appear when using ninjutsu.

For Shiraku Yosuke, training the Sage Mode of Shikkotsu Forest was much simpler than for others. His Sage Chakra, which was already half-finished, only needed to be guided by the slug to be converted into Sage Chakra containing the characteristics of Shikkotsu Forest.

Throughout the night, Shirokumo Yosuke practiced the Sage Mode of the Shikkotsu Forest with the help of the slug. However, at the beginning, he only needed to adapt to its extremely strong 'corrosive' properties.

Bang!

As the smoke cleared, Jiraiya emerged and greeted the toad with a smile, saying, "Long time no see, Fukasaku the Sage. Thank you for your help this time."

Fukasaku the Hermit said, "Hmm, it's not too much trouble. Even if you hadn't come to us, the Master would definitely have come to you."

Upon hearing this, Jiraiya's expression turned serious: "Does the Master already know?"

"Know what?"

The Toad Sage was taken aback, then said, "The Great Master has been going through several periods of deep sleep and then waking up recently, and he often says he wants to see you, but then falls asleep again. I was planning to ask him about it before calling you over, but I didn't expect you to have something to discuss with the Great Toad Sage."

Upon hearing this, Jiraiya sighed and said, "Master Fukasaku, I think I know what's troubling the master. Take me to him; there are some things I need to discuss with the Great Toad Sage."

"Is that so? Then come with me. I don't know if the master has woken up yet."

After saying that, Fukasaku led Jiraiya deeper into Mount Myōboku.

Soon, the man and the toad arrived at the residence of the Great Toad Immortal. Upon entering, they saw a sleeping, ancient toad.

"Master, Master!"

It took Fukasaku a while to wake up the sleeping giant toad sage; if he hadn't woken him up this time, he didn't know if he could wake Jiraiya up next time.

The Great Toad Sage opened his sleepy, bewildered eyes, looked around, and slowly said, "It's Fukasaku. And who's the person next to you?"

"Sir, it's Jiraiya! Didn't you say you were looking for Jiraiya? He's here to see you now."

"Oh, so it's Jiraiya. Good."

The Great Toad Sage nodded, and after a moment of silence, asked, "Fukasaku, what brings you here? And who is the person next to you?"

"He's Jiraiya. The old man is probably still half asleep."

The last sentence of Fukasaku's words was addressed to Jiraiya. Afterwards, it reminded the Great Toad Sage a few more times, which finally made the sleepy Great Toad remember Jiraiya.

"Hmm, little Jiraiya, the prophecy I told you before seems to have changed."

The Great Toad Sage finished speaking slowly. At this moment, its cloudy toad eyes were very clear, but its tone revealed an imperceptible fear.

"Someone changed the future. It's hard to believe, but it's something only a god could do. Even the Sage of Six Paths' mother wasn't that powerful."

Jiraiya asked in confusion, "My lord, who is the Sage of Six Paths' mother?"

"Kaguya-hime, the progenitor of chakra, and the first true god in the ninja world. However, because she was too violent and cold-blooded, she was sealed away by the Sage of Six Paths."

The Great Toad Sage slowly said that the summoning beasts that had experienced that era could never forget Princess Kaguya, the goddess who almost destroyed the ninja world.

"Although I couldn't clearly see the owner of that large hand, I vaguely discerned that person was from the same place as Princess Kaguya."

The unique double horns that appeared in the dream frightened even the Great Toad Sage, as if they were randomly manipulated in the future timeline. Compared to Kaguya, that person was the true god.

"My lord, this is precisely why I've come to see you. Many people in the ninja world are now dreaming of the future. We don't know the exact number yet, but it's certainly quite a few."

Jiraiya then told the Great Toad Sage and Fukasaku Sage everything that had happened recently, including the future he had dreamed about, including the destruction of Mount Myōboku.

"Is it that scary?"

After Jiraiya finished speaking, there was a long silence before the Great Toad Sage finally spoke, but then it continued...

"Little Jiraiya, the future isn't unchangeable. It all depends on your choices. A river has many forks, and even a casual thought can change the future. In fact, the future might already be changed now."

The Great Toad Sage has his reasons for saying this. His abilities come from Onmyoji, who are beings who can communicate with heaven and earth to obtain responses. If the future is predetermined, then he should be able to dream about the future now.

However, its ability has failed, which means that the future is constantly changing.

Jiraiya didn't quite understand either: "Master, what should I do now?"

"Hmm, I'm not too sure either, but just do what you want to do."

"Well"

Jiraiya scratched his head, looking confused. He had come to Mount Myōboku to ask the Great Toad Sage for advice because he didn't know what to do, but the Great Toad Sage hadn't given him any instructions.

"Should I still search for the Chosen One, sir?"

"There are no more chosen ones now, Jiraiya."

The Great Toad Sage sighed and said that it couldn't even see the future, so how could there be any Blue-Eyed Chosen One?

"this"

Upon hearing this, Jiraiya was even more bewildered. Did that mean he gained nothing from coming to Mount Myōboku?

"Then I'll head back now, sir. Boss Fukasaku, Konoha might still need me."

Unable to get any useful answers, Jiraiya decided to return to Konoha and gather some intelligence while he was there, as Konoha was not at peace.

"Okay, let's go back, Jiraiya, but don't do anything unnecessary."

The Great Toad Immortal suddenly remembered a situation he had dreamed about before, and spoke up to remind him.

However, his words startled Jiraiya. Before coming here, he had indeed thought that if the superfluous people disappeared, would the ninja world be corrected to its proper state, and would the Chosen One appear to save the future?

But now, hearing the Great Toad Sage's words, Jiraiya felt that it was a reminder of that idea, which made him immediately dismiss the thought in his heart.
