Dragon Vein Time Travel? This Old Man Is Going Too?

Her long, black hair was simply left loose, yet it resembled an ink-stained galaxy, shimmering with a lustrous sheen under the moonlight, reaching all the way down to her slender waist.

The woman's delicate, long eyebrows added a unique touch to her amber eyes; her fair nose was framed by rosy cheeks, and her thin lips were naturally red, small and charming.

Beside her snow-white goose neck were exposed fragrant shoulders, and the slender skin could not be concealed by the large breasts on her delicate body. A pair of fair wrists were placed on top of her, which only made her look more magnificent.

After bathing and changing, the Miko Kurenai patted her chest, pulled back the curtain, and slowly walked into the room, nestling in the man's arms.

"Lord Takeyasu, the future of the Miko and the Demon Ninja Village rests in your hands."

After a night of rain pattering on banana leaves, Uchiha Takeyasu, having enjoyed the bliss of the Miko, created two Shadow Clone: one returned to Konoha, and the other was teleported to the distant sea fleet.

Its true form, accompanied by plump, lustrous, and vibrant Kurenai, arrived in Rōran City, reaching the dragon vein, a place completely sealed off and inaccessible even to the former Queen of Roran and current Rōran City Lord.

"Kurenai, feel it. After I break the seal on the dragon vein, do you see any warning signs of death when the dragon vein's power erupts?"

"Lord Takeyasu, no."

Kurenai, clinging to Uchiha Takeyasu, explained in his ear, "The Miko's precognitive power is not active, but passive; the timing of her precognition is also unpredictable."

"Sometimes I can arrive two or three days early, and sometimes I can only arrive two or three hours early."

"So, I might die outside the prophesied time?"

"Yes, Lord Takeyasu."

Upon learning of this situation, Uchiha Takeyasu patted Kurenai's plump buttocks and, under the Miko maiden's watery and alluring gaze, teleported her back to the Demon Ninja Village shrine. He then formed hand Hand Seals and slapped the ground.

"Hokage-sama, what brings you to this This Old Woman's summons?"

The Great Toad Sage, with his murky Toad eyes and wearing a doctoral cap, surveyed the underground space. It was surrounded by sealing runes on all sides, with no entrance or exit. His gaze fell on the center of the stone platform where they were standing, which was also the center of the sealing runes, and then looked at Uchiha Takeyasu beside him.

"The Great Toad Sage should have heard of the Rōran Dragon Vein; what we are standing on now is it."

"Does the Hokage-sama intend to travel through time to the past or the future?"

The Great Toad Sage, who could discern the subtle meaning behind the music, was certainly aware of the wondrous nature of the Dragon Vein. Over the millennia, it wasn't that no one had tried to use it, but very few had ever returned alive.

"Let's forget about the past; I'd rather see what the future holds."

His target is all kinds of beautiful women who will appear in the future, and he also wants to obtain the Rinnegan that Madara will evolve in the future.

There's also Obito Uchiha's dual Kamui, Itachi Uchiha's Tsukuyomi and Amaterasu (which is somewhat dispensable), Shisui Uchiha, and another Kotoamatsukami, Uchiha Hikari existence is unknown.

Unaware of what Uchiha Takeyasu was thinking, the Great Toad Sage countered with a question, "Hokage-sama, do you believe that the spacetime after the Dragon Vein's passage is a parallel or a different entity from our own?"

Uchiha Takeyasu, who didn't pretend to know what he didn't, said frankly, "Please, Great Toad Sage, explain in detail."

"Based on the fact that even those who have returned from the dragon vein over the past thousand years have not changed my prophecy, it can be deduced that the world after the journey is an alternate dimension."

"In other words, no matter what changes occur in our spacetime, it will not affect the development of the alternate dimension spacetime."

The Great Toad Sage's tone turned serious. "Similarly, it's unknown how the alternate dimension will develop, or whether you and I will still exist."

"The unknown is what makes life interesting; if everything were clear and straightforward, life would be too boring."

The typical Uchiha remark made the Great Toad Sage roll his eyes. Having lived for a thousand years, all he wanted was a peaceful and stable life. Last night, he even dreamed of a prophecy about the Ninja World attacking the New World. After waking up, he gulped down several bottles of sake.

This person really knows how to stir up trouble!

Seeing the silent Gama-matsu, Uchiha Takeyasu asked again, "Does the Great Toad Sage know how to travel to different dimensions in the future?"

"Because the information is too limited, we can only roughly deduce that rotating the dragon vein's power clockwise is to travel to a future alternate dimension, and rotating it counterclockwise is to travel to a past alternate dimension."

Before Uchiha Takeyasu could ask a question, the Great Toad Sage continued, "As for the timeframe, it depends on how much power the dragon vein has accumulated. It's roughly enough to start the transfer with the Chakra of the entire Nine-Tails. Adding another Nine-Tails would push it forward or backward by ten years. The further back in time, the more the consumption increases."

At this point, the Great Toad Sage's tone became grave, "Hokage-sama, the power of the Dragon Veins is a wondrous creation born from the earth's power containing the energy of space and time. Excessive consumption of it will cause unimaginable disasters to the Ninja World Continent."

"Please think carefully before using it. Also, please find the coordinates for your return. You are surely aware of the dangers of spacetime energy."

Uchiha Takeyasu nodded. "Even the best swimmers drown, and the best riders fall. Just like when he used the Dimensional Teleportation Array before, he didn't want to kill himself one day."

"Great Toad Sage, please also prepare something."

"Huh? This Old Woman is going too?"

Seeing the stunned Great Toad Sage, Uchiha Takeyasu smiled and said, "The Great Toad Sage is my Summoning Beast. How can I face an unknown battle without my strongest assistant?"

"Oh, this."

The Great Toad Sage's wrinkled Toad face grew increasingly distressed. "Hokage-sama," he said, "this This Old Woman man is getting old. Perhaps you could take Fukasaku and Shima, or even the three of them Gama Bunta, with you."

"Look at my This Old Woman, my skin is practically cracked like Toad's. If I go there, not only will I look bad and make you lose face, but I'll also hold you back."

" With Fukasaku airs of otherworldly grace, Gama Bunta's domineering presence, both are far superior to this This Old Woman."

Hearing the incessant complaints of the cowardly Great Toad Sage, Uchiha Takeyasu's lips twitched, and the thought that a wise man does not stand under a dangerous wall arose in his mind.

He didn't believe Gama-matsu's nonsense. This old Toad might have been weak a thousand years ago, but a thousand years later, he could still sense the scanning fluctuations of [Amenotokotachi]. His strength must have reached the Six Paths level.

Therefore, even the Great Toad Sage is at the Six Paths level and possesses prophetic abilities, doesn't want to go. Why should someone at the Super Kage Level get involved?

Why give up a perfectly good life to travel through time? Isn't that just plain crazy?

But it's a real shame to leave the dragon vein unused.

At that moment, Uchiha Takeyasu thought of his Dimensional Teleportation Array. If the Dimensional Teleportation Array were combined with the power of the dragon vein, could it directly lock onto the alternate dimension of the Ninja World?

Once this thought arises, it takes root in one's heart.

Uchiha Takeyasu glanced at the Great Toad Sage, who was absolutely unwilling to go, and smiled. "If the Great Toad Sage doesn't want to go, then nobody's going."

The Great Toad Sage's face had just lit up with joy when Uchiha Takeyasu's next words snapped him back to reality.

"We're not going, let them come."

"Great Toad Sage, you'd better be more reliable with your prophecies."

"Hokage-sama, aren't you afraid of encountering an insurmountable enemy?"

Uchiha Takeyasu scoffed at the Great Toad Sage's words, saying, "If the sky falls, the tall ones will hold it up. Don't we still have the guardian of the Ninja World, the Sage of Six Paths, who watches the tides rise and fall of the Ninja World from the Pure Land?"

Upon hearing this, the Great Toad Sage's cloudy eyes instantly sharpened. He gave the Uchiha Takeyasu a deep look and said in a serious tone, "It seems that the Hokage-sama knows quite a few secrets of the Ninja World."

"Every step leaves a trace; those who believe others will never know are truly foolish."

"Great Toad Sage, I await your prophecy."

With his hands Hand Seals, he sent the Great Toad Sage back to Mount Myōboku. Uchiha Takeyasu then landed a foot, returning to the loyal Konoha.
