Mount Myōboku, a renowned place of heritage in the Ninja World.
The Summoning Toad, renowned for their Senjutsu, are considered a formidable force even among ninjas.
Its ancestor, the Great Toad Sage, was a Toad that had lived for over a thousand years and had an unknown entanglement with the Sage of Six Paths from a thousand years ago.
In addition, the Great Toad Sage is also the one who gave the prophecy of salvation, and he seems to possess some strange power.
At this moment, in Mount Myōboku, Huayue looked up at the sky with a smile on his lips.
The sky was a clear, deep blue, with occasional fluffy clouds drifting by. The strange plants all around, including large, colorful mushrooms, looked adorable and charming.
"It seems that the environment of Mount Myōboku is indeed better than that of Ryūchi Cave. Perhaps it's because snakes burrow into caves to build their nests, avoiding sunlight. Humans, on the other hand, are drawn to light..."
In a secluded corner, a visitor who doesn't belong to Mount Myōboku wanders around this legendary sacred place of spiritual practice.
Before she knew it, a training ground covered with stone frogs appeared before Huayue.
"Huh? Humans? Why are there humans in the cultivation area? You came from the Mist Mountains, but I didn't see any frogs using Reverse Summoning Jutsu."
A pink frog hopped in front of her. Huayue smiled without saying a word. To these psychic frogs, her method should be described as illegal intrusion.
"I have heard that Mount Myōboku is one of the Three Great Training Holy Lands, and the Great Toad Sage who is the leader of the three has lived for thousands of years. I admire him and have come to Mount Myōboku to seek the Senjutsu."
"Hey! You came here to learn Senjutsu, and you could easily turn into a stone statue if you're not careful. But now that Fukasaku-sama and Shima-sama are out, I think you should..."
The little frog chattered on and on, and just as it was about to persuade Huayue to leave, the words of the Great Toad Sage suddenly echoed in its mind.
"Bring that human to me..."
These words immediately interrupted the little frog's eloquent speech, and it plopped down on the ground.
"No way! Human, come with me, the Great Toad Sage wants to see you!"
Huayue's face was gentle, and her smile became more and more obvious. Ever since entering Mount Myōboku, a subtle sense of being spied on had been present around her.
"I can't hold back any longer. Please lead the way. I'm also very curious to know what the difference is between the Toad Sage and the White Snake Sage."
Deep within Mount Myōboku, in an ancient and dilapidated temple, sits an enormous orange Toad on its throne, its eyes closed.
Soon after, the arrival of a person and a frog broke the silence of the place.
" Great Toad Sage, I have invited our guest..."
"Hmm, really? Who are you?"
Among the beads, the lavender cat's eye stone shines with strange brilliance, and the word "oil" on it is even more puzzling.
On the doctoral cap on his head, there was a plain, transparent spherical crystal, but the Natural Energy flowing within it was impossible to ignore.
Its enormous size and aged appearance, coupled with its strange questions, make one wonder if the giant Toad in front of them has Alzheimer's disease.
"You specifically invited me to visit, so it's incredibly boring to play dumb at this crucial moment."
"If that's your question, then I can tell you the answer clearly: Who am I? I am God!"
An unimaginable surge of violent chakra, accompanied by a strange mixture of spiritual energy, suddenly erupted before the Great Toad Sage, creating a terrifying pressure.
"A little brat who has lived for more than twenty years dares to call himself a god in front of an old Toad who has lived for more than a thousand years. This scene is really funny to the Toad."
" Enkai, please step back. I'd like to have a chat with this little kid who claims to be a god."
The little pink frog finally woke up from the corner of the wall; the sudden gust of wind had blown it to a corner of the temple.
After receiving the Great Toad Sage's approval, it glanced back and then quickly turned and left.
Inside the temple, all was silent. The man and the Toad faced off for a long time before the Great Toad Sage immortal finally opened his orange eyes.
"So, God, what are your views on the future of the Ninja World?"
"The future of the Ninja World seems to have nothing to do with neutral entities like Mount Myōboku. If you insist on asking, then I will mercifully tell you."
Huayue's tone was indifferent, and the gentle smile on her face vanished at that moment.
"The chaotic logic at the bottom of the Ninja World will be completely ended in the Fourth Great Ninja War. As long as the ninja mission system exists, there will never be true peace in this world."
"War will continue. Even if there is peace on the surface, the struggle behind the scenes will continue. This is the inherent weakness of humankind and cannot be changed."
After a brief pause, Huayue continued.
"That's right. Changing the ninja system from the root, prioritizing Scientific Ninja Tool, improving production and science, and educating the next generation to forget hatred is the only way to peace."
"Prophecy? Fate? How ridiculous. The development of things follows its own cyclical laws, and it is difficult for humankind alone to escape from this endless cycle."
Faced with Huayue's answer, the Great Toad Sage remained silent, his turbid eyes trying to see something, but in the end, all he saw was a thick fog.
"Is this your answer? I still insist on the dream I glimpsed: only the blue-eyed boy who plays with the Nine Tailed Beasts can dispel all hatred."
Huayue shrugged, saying nothing more to the stubborn Great Toad Sage, only uttering a single, indifferent remark.
"It seems we have different views on peace. As Mount Myōboku is a neutral entity, I don't want to interfere. Could you please just watch quietly?"
"Furthermore, I still hope that you can have your two subordinates teach Naruto Senjutsu. The Senjutsu tradition of Ryūchi Cave is not very suitable for Naruto's physique."
A strange light flickered in her eyes, and the message at the corner of her eye made Huayue's smile even more pronounced.
