The sky was a dark yellow. All around were disproportionately large herbaceous plants and towering trees.
Yusuke walked leisurely through this forest within Mount Myoboku.
The moment he appeared at the top of Mount Myoboku's temple, the Great Toad Sage, who had been lying there, suddenly opened its eyes — eyes that hadn't been opened for nearly a hundred years. It immediately sat up!
Before it, Fukasaku and Shima also became instantly alert. They had never seen the Great Toad Sage display such a shocked and grave expression.
"Toad Sage, what's wrong? Did you foresee something again?" Fukasaku quickly approached and asked in a low voice.
"No... This time... it's not a prophecy." the Great Toad Sage slowly shook its head, then said in a deep voice, "It's him. He's here..."
Upon hearing these words, Fukasaku and Shima's faces instantly changed dramatically!
"What? How could he enter our Mount Myoboku without our permission?" Fukasaku said quickly.
At this moment, the Great Toad Sage waved its hand, interrupting Fukasaku's words.
"His strength, as I've said before, is completely unfathomable. Even I cannot prophesy about him." The Great Toad Sage seemed to think of something and hurriedly added, "Quickly! Notify little Jiraiya! He's very likely here for him!"
"Understood!" Shima immediately nodded.
With a leap, it vanished without a trace!
At this moment, Jiraiya was still in Mount Myoboku's training grounds, struggling to master more powerful sage techniques.
"He's about to arrive here. We should prepare. He's an enemy, not a friend!" The Great Toad Sage said quickly.
"Yes!" Upon hearing this, Fukasaku immediately sprang into action, "Gamabunta! Quickly! Spread the word! Have all the toads come out! Be on high alert! Hurry, hurry, hurry!"
Fukasaku swiftly issued orders. They had to be on high alert! This time, it seemed they had truly reached a moment of life or death!
After all, Fukasaku would occasionally visit the ninja world and learn about the major events happening within it. As for news about Yusuke, Fukasaku and the Great Toad Sage had naturally learned of his existence early on.
❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆
At the top of Mount Myoboku's temple, Yusuke leapt into the air and quietly floated above.
Below, Gamabunta and a multitude of toads of various sizes were on high alert. They held axes, halberds, hooks, and forks — all weapons aimed at him.
Yusuke narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly, an immensely powerful Six Paths pressure descended with a boom!
"This is... this is!" Fukasaku, the leader, exclaimed as it felt the terrifying pressure. Its entire toad face turned black!
Could this be Six Paths level pressure? While the other toads might not know, Fukasaku had learned from the Great Toad Sage about the era a thousand years ago in the ninja world — when ninja clans ruled and the Sage of Six Paths reigned.
Although it had never truly sensed the Sage of Six Paths' pressure, it could swear that Yusuke's aura was absolutely Six Paths level! This couldn't be faked!
As this realization dawned on it, Fukasaku's eyes filled with intense awe as he looked at Yusuke.
At that moment, all the toads, including Gamabunta, were subjugated under this overwhelmingly terrifying pressure.
"Give up resistance." The Great Toad Sage muttered, "We are no match for him."
At this time, the elderly Great Toad Sage forcibly supported his body, stood up, and slowly walked out of Mount Myoboku's temple.
Raising his head and looking at Yusuke floating quietly in the air, he could clearly sense the terrifyingly extreme Six Paths pressure emanating from him!
After truly experiencing once again the pressure from Six Paths level power, the Great Toad Sage finally realized how ridiculous his previous thought of being able to resist had been.
What an absurd idea that had been!
Moreover, the power displayed by Yusuke seemed to be no less than that of the Sage of Six Paths! That is to say, his strength was even greater than him!
Thinking of this, the Great Toad Sage immediately reprimanded in a low voice, "Quickly! Everyone put away all your weapons!"
Although all the toads were extremely angry, they had no other choice. They could only obediently put away the weapons in their hands.
After all, under that terrifying Six Paths pressure emanating from the enemy, even attempting to strike was a luxury for them!
Yusuke quietly looked at the group of toads below.
Then, he said in a clear voice, "Jiraiya, come out yourself. This way, I'll let them die quickly."
His voice was neither loud nor soft, yet it could be heard by all living beings within Mount Myoboku. Everyone could hear what he said.
However, as soon as these words were spoken, the toads below immediately fell into chaos!
"What! What does that guy mean?"
"Is he saying he's going to kill us all?"
"Let's fight! Elder Fukasaku! Just give the order! We can fight him!"
"Yeah! Let's fight him!"
"..."
The toads immediately fell into chaos.
At this moment, Elder Fukasaku's expression was also very grim. Finally, it looked towards the Great Toad Sage behind.
In contrast, the Great Toad Sage spoke in a hushed tone, "Stay still. We may be doomed today... However, I see a glimmer of hope in young Jiraiya. If he can escape this place, there's still a chance for everything!"
Hearing this, Elder Fukasaku nodded gravely.
At this moment, they could only pin all their hopes on Jiraiya.
❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆
In the sacred training grounds of Mount Myoboku, beneath a splashing waterfall, Jiraiya had just finished listening to Lady Shima's words. He heard what Yusuke said — telling him to come out and that he would let these toads die quickly.
"Damn it! That Yusuke Kamizuki!" He exclaimed.
As he thought of the treacherous words, anger immediately rose from his heart. He wanted nothing more than to go out and kill Yusuke right away!
"Young Jiraiya! We've already told you all the methods for cultivating Mount Myoboku's strongest sage techniques. Now, before Yusuke Kamizuki discovers you, quickly leave this place! Otherwise, once he finds you, it's all over!" Shima said with an extremely grave voice.
"But... but..." Jiraiya angrily clenched his fists, "That guy is going to kill you all!"
"We'll be fine." Shima said in a low voice, "Our task has been completed. You have already mastered the methods for cultivating the strongest sage techniques. Even if we truly can't escape our fate today, you still have a chance to stop Yusuke Kamizuki. Hurry! If he really senses you, by then you won't be able to leave even if you want to! Quickly, Young Jiraiya! Leave quickly!"
Jiraiya clenched his fists in extreme anger!
"I will definitely stop Yusuke Kamizuki! When the time comes, I will definitely... definitely avenge you all!" His eyes began to turn red.
"Go quickly!" Shima immediately said.
"Mm!" Jiraiya also knew that now was not the time to show off.
Immediately, he performed the Reverse Summoning Technique and left Mount Myoboku!
❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆
At the same time, Yusuke, atop the temple of Mount Myoboku, smiled.
"In the end, he still ran away. Well then, if that's the case..."
His eyes immediately released an eerie purple light!
"If that's how it is, then I'll enslave them all!"
