Mount Myōboku.
"What? You're going to find Iwaya Slope!"
Sage Fukasaku jumped up immediately after hearing what Jiraiya said.
"No, absolutely not! That is a forbidden area for the living!"
Jiraiya can't help it, Konoha really needs First and them now, and he feels that Naruto is now a gas tank on the verge of exploding.
If we don't get Kushina and Minato back quickly, Jiraiya is really afraid that Naruto will go directly to Kumogakure or Kirigakure in a hurry to find a Mountain and continue to fire Tailed Beast Bomb inside.
When Shinobi World is unified, Naruto will probably go directly to Ryūchi Cave, and then take the road from Ryūchi Cave to Mount Myōboku.
Orochimaru doesn't care whether Naruto will kill White Snake Sage. As long as Naruto comes to find her, she will definitely agree to take Naruto to Ryūchi Cave.
Jiraiya then told Sage Fukasaku his guess. Sage Fukasaku also fell silent after hearing Jiraiya's guess.
When Jiraiya spoke, he did not feel at all that it was very laborious for Naruto to kill White Snake Sage, as if destroying the two holy places was as easy for Naruto as searching for something.
"This... I'm afraid we need to ask Great Toad for his opinion."
Shima accepted Jiraiya's request and was going to ask Great Toad Sage.
"Great Toad He knows far more things than we do.
About life and death, about Pure Land, about those ancient legends and taboos, he may have seen something in his dream.
Whether little Naruto should be informed of the way to Iwaya Slope may have an immeasurable impact on the future.
Such an important decision must be made by Great Toad."
Jiraiya understood in his heart, and also felt a sense of awe.
Great Toad Sage's ability to predict is unfathomable. If this matter involves a major trend in the future, he really needs his approval.
"I understand. Then... please ask old sister Yamato to take me to see Great Toad Sage."
In front of Naruto, he called these two immortals immortals, because Naruto was not the contractor of Mount Myōboku.
Privately Jiraiya still likes to call them old Yamato eldest sister.
"Well, without further ado, let's..."
Sage Fukasaku is preparing to get up and take Jiraiya to the depths of the holy land where Great Toad Sage usually sleeps.
"Grandpa! Grandmother!"
A crisp but somewhat whirring sound suddenly came from the direction of the cave entrance.
One person and two clams go out in sequence.
I saw a little Toad, which was all orange in color and slightly larger than Fukasaku Shima, but still smaller and more exquisite than the adult Toad, jumping towards this side like crazy.
They are the sons of Gamakichi and Gamabunta.
Gamakichi jumped up and came close. It seemed to be running a little fast, took a few breaths, then raised a small paw, pointed at Jiraiya, and said to Fukasaku and Shima:
"Great Toad...Great Toad just woke up. Gamatatsu and I happened to be playing hide-and-seek nearby. He asked me to come over and tell you."
Gamakichi imitated Great Toad Sage's slow and vague accent, but it didn't look like it, and it was a bit funny.
"'With that... what's it called... Jilai, Jilai...'"
Gamakichi tilted his head, trying to remember the human name that was a bit difficult to pronounce.
"That's right! 'Tap water'! Great Toad said, take the guy named 'Tap water' and go see him immediately!"
Jiraiya supports the amount.
Jiraiya doesn't sound like tap water at all.
Tap water?
Gamakichi must have remembered it wrong. Of course, Great Toad said something wrong a lot.
"It's 'Jiraiya'! Gamakichi!"
Sage Fukasaku hit Gamakichi on the head with his little paw angrily and corrected him.
"Eh? Jilai... also? Oh, yes, yes! It's Jiraiya!"
Gamakichi suddenly realized it, scratched his head with his paws, and smiled sheepishly, "Hey, Great Toad sometimes can't hear clearly what he's saying."
Sage Shima also shook his head helplessly, but a trace of deep thought flashed in his eyes, "Great Toad actually woke up on his own initiative, and even asked to see little Jiraiya by name..."
Sage Fukasaku looked stern. "It seems that Great Toad... has indeed predicted little Jiraiya's intentions, and may even have seen future clips related to this matter!"
No more delay for the two clams.
"Little Jiraiya, come with us quickly, Great Toad should finally wake up now!"
Sage Fukasaku urged.
"Gamakichi, go play first and don't run around."
Sage Shima warned his grandson.
"Yes~"
Gamakichi agreed, looked at Jiraiya curiously, and then jumped away.
Two immortals, Fukasaku and Shima, one on the left and one on the right, brought Jiraiya to the Palace of Great Toad Sage.
"Great Toad, we brought little Jiraiya here."
Sage Fukasaku stepped forward and shouted loudly to Great Toad Sage who was half asleep on the stage.
After Fukasaku and Shima shouted several times, Great Toad Sage opened his eyes in a daze.
"It's little Fukasaku."
"I had a dream, Gamahiro was holding a huge potato..."
Fukasaku:...
Shima:...
Jiraiya:...
"Haha, let's liven up the atmosphere!"
Great Toad Sage rarely smiled.
"I had... a dream..."
"Pure Land... the being in charge of Pure Land..."
Great Toad Sage's words were a bit intermittent, as if he was trying to recall and piece together the fragments of his dream.
"He... set a test... for Naruto..."
"Test?"
Jiraiya was shocked and quickly held his breath and concentrated, not daring to miss a word.
Great Toad Sage's huge head seemed to nod very slightly, and his voice continued to flow:
"Pure Land... This is not a place where the living should set foot... If you force your way in... you will definitely die..."
These words were exactly the same as Fukasaku's previous warning, which made Jiraiya's heart sink.
But then, Great Toad Sage's words took a strange turn:
"However... that existence seems... not completely forbidden..."
"He is waiting... waiting for Naruto... to truly have... the power of his own..."
Great Toad Sage's voice became more erratic, as if reciting an ancient prophecy:
"The eye that controls life and death... is the key... and the threshold..."
"What belongs to you... what suits you... external force is always external force..."
"When Blue Eyes's eyes become Red Eyes... the eye that controls life and death will give birth to...
When you return from a thousand journeys... you will realize that what you are looking for is on the mirror..."
The half-open eyes of Great Toad Sage seemed to have penetrated the dome of the Palace, looking into the endless and distant void, looking towards a certain future:
"When he... can put on Hagoromo..."
"He will... naturally... know..."
Great Toad Sage's voice paused here for a long time, so long that Jiraiya almost thought he fell asleep again.
Finally, the last few words were spat out gently as if the dust had settled:
"How did Iwaya Slope go?"
After saying this, Great Toad Sage's barely open eyes slowly closed.
His huge head rested back on the backrest, and his long and heavy breathing became even again, as if the words just now had exhausted his "awake" strength, and he sank back into the Eternity dream full of prophecies.
In the Palace, only Fukasaku, Shima and Jiraiya were left, still immersed in the huge shock and thinking brought about by the words that were like divine revelation just now.
"When you have eyes that control life and death... you will know how to get to Iwaya Slope..."
Jiraiya murmured and repeated, feeling suddenly enlightened, but more questions arose.
Is the so-called eye that controls life and death Rinnegan?
