"The Ninja World's... death?"
Naruto did not quite understand what she meant. Could this Priestess's prophecies really see something as abstract as that?
"A great fire that sweeps across all beneath heaven will drag the entire Ninja World into the abyss. The Five Great Nations will become history, the old systems will be utterly destroyed, and the Three Great Sage Locations will once again make their choice."
"I can see that at the heart of those flames stands your figure, My Lord."
Naruto looked at the Priestess before him, whose manner was gentle and humble, while the aura about her seemed untouched by mortal smoke and fire.
He narrowed his eyes as well and said with a smile, "Judging by Miss Miroku's prophecy, it seems I am not a good person."
This prophecy did feel a little like those toads of Mount Myōboku. That old toad had probably seen a prophecy like this, which was why he had planned to make a move against him.
Gamamaru had lived from the Land of Ancestors all the way to the present. As early as a thousand years ago, he had already begun to toy with people's hearts and influence the development of the human world.
