Three Toads

The clear stream flowed gently, splashing white spray as it hit the rocks. Every now and then, a bird would flutter its wings and swoop down, its sharp talons digging into the water to catch a swimming fish before taking flight again.

On the pebble beach covered with oval-shaped pebbles, Jiraiya half-squatted to make it easier to talk, while Yemo rubbed his hands together, somewhat impatient.

Jiraiya said, "Yemo, you are a genius. You must have a general understanding of Summoning Technique, so I won't explain them one by one."

"Yes," Yemo nodded and said, "The Summoning Technique is essentially a summoning technique belonging to the Space-Time Ninjutsu. It's not difficult to use, but you must first sign a blood contract with the summoned creature."

"I'm starting to envy Orochimaru," Yemo, Jiraiya Ye Mo a deep look. Every teacher likes to teach genius students because they are talented, quick to understand, and can grasp things immediately. You don't need to waste much effort on them; they can achieve results beyond your imagination.

"In that case," Jiraiya straightened up, rubbed his hands together, and said, "Let's begin now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiraiya bit his right thumb, drawing a bloody line about ten centimeters long on his left palm. Then he Hand Seals. This was the first time Yemo had ever seen Jiraiya Hand Seals. Jiraiya expected of one of the Legendary Sannin, Jiraiya's Hand Seals speed was incredibly fast. In the blink of an eye, he had completed the ninja hand seals required for the Summoning Technique. This was the fastest Hand Seals speed Yemo had ever seen.

"Summoning Technique!"

With a shout, Jiraiya raised his left hand high and slammed it into the ground. Black runes emerged from his palm, followed by a bang and a cloud of white smoke rising from beneath Jiraiya feet.

The white smoke was swept away by a gentle breeze, revealing Jiraiya's figure, along with the giant Toad he summoned. It was not the Gamabunta, Gamaken, or Gamahiro that Yemo knew, but a small Toad only the height of two people.

Of course, it is a small toad compared to the size of Gamabunta, but compared to humans, it is indeed a very large toad. It is red all over, with green cloud-like patterns all over its body. It wears a necklace with the word "loyalty" around its neck, a huge scroll in its mouth, and a white cloth with an unknown purpose wrapped around its belly. In short, it is a curious toad everywhere.

Without Jiraiya saying a word, the Toad put the scroll down on its own initiative, Yemo then realized that the scroll had been held up by the Toad's long tongue the whole time.

Yemo happily accepted the scroll. The scroll had the word "Toad" written in the middle. He carefully examined the scroll in his hand. This was the contract for signing a blood pact with the Toad of Mount Myōboku.

At this moment, Jiraiya, standing atop the Toad, smiled slightly and said, "Open this scroll and take a look. This is a contract passed down through generations of my family with the summoning Toad. Write your name in your own blood, then stamp it with the blood imprint of five fingers. I probably won't tell you the rest, but you should already know the steps for using the Summoning Technique."

Perhaps tired of talking, Jiraiya sat down on the Toad and quietly watched Yemo's performance.

Following Jiraiya's instructions, Yemo first placed the scroll on the ground, then unfolded it. As the scroll rolled open, names appeared in Yemo's eyes one by one.

There weren't many names recorded on the scroll, only seven or eight. Yemo didn't recognize the first two names, but he did recognize the last two: Jiraiya and Minato Namikaze.

He gently bit his middle finger, and blood oozed from between his fingers. Yemo quickly used his finger to write the four large characters "Yemo Uzumaki" on the back of Minato Namikaze.

He then raised his left hand and bit each of his five fingers, drawing blood rapidly. However, Yemo's recovery ability was too abnormal; the bite wounds healed quickly. Yemo hurriedly raised his left hand and pressed his handprint under his name.

"Alright, mission accomplished!"

As he spoke, Yemo raised his left hand, and the bitten finger had healed completely, as if nothing had happened.

Looking at his healed finger, Yemo was annoyed. This meant that in the future, when he used the Summoning Technique, he would have to quickly draw a bloody line on his palm after biting his finger. If he delayed even a little while, his finger would heal, which would be very embarrassing.

Jiraiya stared in disbelief at Yemo's fingers, which had fully recovered. In all his years as a ninja, he had never seen such monstrous regenerative abilities. Coupled with Yemo's ability to withstand a punch from him yesterday without being at a disadvantage, Jiraiya was even more shocked and curious. Even if the Uzumaki Clan had strong vitality, it couldn't be this terrifying, could it?

The next second, seeing Yemo looking at his recovered finger with a depressed expression, Jiraiya's lips twitched Jiraiya. He had never seen such a shameless person. With such abnormal recovery ability, he was still depressed. It was truly a case of the well-fed not knowing the hunger of the starving. If others had such recovery ability, they would be overjoyed.

Clearing his throat, Jiraiya said, "You can try it now. Remember, the size of the creature you summon is fundamentally related to the amount of Chakra you use."

Call...

Taking a deep breath, Yemo bit his right thumb again. There was nothing he could do; his recovery ability was too abnormal, and his finger had healed completely. Seeing this, Jiraiya couldn't help but twitch his lips.

He quickly slid a bloody mark onto his left palm, then Yemo swiftly formed hand Hand Seals "Hai-Xu-You-Shen-Wei".

Jiraiya, sitting on the Toad, showed a hint of shock the moment Yemo Hand Seals. Yemo's Hand Seals were not only flawless but also incredibly fast. This was nothing like a novice using the Summoning Technique for the first time; it was more like a seasoned ninja who had used the Summoning Technique hundreds of times.

"Alright, the hand seals are complete. Now, let's use half of my Chakra!"

Muttering to himself, Yemo raised his left hand high, and at the same time, an extremely terrifying Chakra erupted from his body. A visible red Chakra light immediately appeared on Yemo's body, and not only that, the erupted Chakra transformed into howling hurricanes.

Jiraiya, who had been sitting there calmly, was so frightened by the Chakra that erupted from Yemo that he took a step back, as the almost tangible Chakra rushed towards him.

"Hey, is Yemo even human? How can a human have such terrifying Chakra?" Jiraiya asked incredulously.

"Summoning Technique!"

At the same time, Yemo suddenly pressed his left hand to the ground, and a series of black runes flew out from Yemo's palm, spreading to the surrounding ground.

Seeing this, Jiraiya suddenly realized something and quickly reached out to stop him, saying, "Wait, Yemo, wait..."

But Jiraiya was still a step too slow. Yemo had already activated the Summoning Technique. Jiraiya slapped his thigh hard, looking utterly dismayed, as if something terrible was about to happen.

Thud... thud... thud...

Three explosions, like the detonation of explosive tags, rang out in succession. Immediately afterward, three clouds of smoke appeared overhead. Yemo quickly looked up and saw that there were indeed three clouds of smoke.

Even he, who was performing the Summoning Technique, was quite surprised. According to common sense, three wisps of smoke would represent three summoned beasts, yet he had summoned three summoned beasts all at once.

Before Yemo could figure out why, the white smoke that had been summoned by the spirit beast dissipated very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, three enormous Toad appeared around Yemo. At that moment, time seemed to stand still.
