Chapter 295 Jiraiya and Myobokuyama
In the evening of the same day, Jiraiya came to Myoboku Mountain through the reverse summoning technique, ready to meet the Great Toad Sage.
The Great Sage is a "character" from the same era as the Six Paths Sage. His life span has long exceeded a thousand years. He relies on his ability to predict the future of the ninja world and "fine-tune" the trend of the world. What is the meaning of this? Or is it the Six Paths Sage's instruction? It is unknown.
Now it is too old. Even as a so-called "immortal", its aging body cannot maintain long-term thinking. Frequent glimpses into the future have put its soul in a weak state. Many times, this great immortal has to use hibernation to maintain his vitality.
Jiraiya had never seen the spiritual pillar of Mount Myoboku, the Great Toad Sage, as he was sleeping. He could only go to see the relatively younger Sages Fukasaku and Shima, who usually served as the managers of Mount Myoboku.
Fukasaku has the best relationship with Jiraiya. He has practiced immortal arts for hundreds of years. To call him an immortal is purely flattering. His life level is still far from that. However, Jiraiya also respects Fukasaku and Shima very much, and has always called them "immortals" by the title he used when he was a teenager in Myoboku Mountain.
In another timeline, after Jiraiya's death, it was Fukasaku who taught Naruto how to use the Sage Mode. It can be said that the bond between the two is very deep.
"It's Jiraiya, why are you here suddenly? Have you eaten? Let the child's mother prepare some food for you? The child's mother - little Jiraiya is here! Prepare more dinner!" Fukasaku Sage shouted at the top of his voice.
Shima Sennin responded from the kitchen: "Got it! Today I'm going to make your favorite insect feast, you're in for a treat! Little Jiraiya, you should eat more too."
Jiraiya's face turned green. To him, 80% of his skills were learned in Myoboku Mountain. He had the deepest feelings for this place, but he really couldn't eat the food in Myoboku Mountain. He came here in a hurry today and didn't even bring rice balls. At this time, he laughed dryly twice and talked about his purpose. He recounted Ino's method and finally asked Fukasaku's opinion: ".This is the thing. You know Minato. He is my most proud disciple. To be honest, if I can revive Minato, I am even willing to exchange my life for it. I am an extremely dull person, with low aptitude, poor comprehension, and stupidity. I can't understand many things at all. If Minato is still alive, he will definitely do better than me."
Fukasaku listened quietly.
Jiraiya talked a lot, like he was pouring out his grievances.
At the end, he talked about his hesitation: "But is it really a good idea to do this? I think there is a high probability that it will trigger a ninja world war, and Minato's resurrection will become the fuse. Countless people will die at that time. Sage, I... I am very hesitant. If I do this, will Minato blame me? Will he feel a lot of guilt? That child is so kind, I am really afraid, afraid that because of my own incompetence, all the blame will be put on him."
Jiraiya's expression was not accurate, but Fukasaku roughly understood the meaning.
Wow! You guys are really generous! Resurrecting Minato Namikaze? Did I hear that right? There used to be a "magic talisman" in Myōboku Mountain that could bring people back to life. It contained the power of several generations of sages, but the talisman was used up by the Six Paths Sages, that is, Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Otsutsuki Hamura, when they fought against their mother.
It's just a talisman, it's gone once you use it.
There is no such means of resurrection in Myoboku Mountain now.
He pondered and said, "Reincarnation from the dead is an absolute taboo. I remember that Minato died after using the Demonic Sealing Technique, right?"
Jiraiya nodded, "We have a way to get his soul back from the God of Death."
Really? Fukasaku expressed serious doubts. Is there such a capable person in your village?
He raised another question: "This forbidden technique of turning death into life is really horrifying. The cost will be very high, right? Who would be willing to use this ninjutsu?"
Jiraiya continued to nod. Ino brought Uchiha Shisui, who was "a Konoha native in life and a Konoha demon in death", to meet him secretly. Jiraiya had read the records of Kotoamatsukami in the notes of the Third Hokage and had some understanding of this.
He continued, "We can also find people who 'willingly' perform forbidden techniques."
How to kidnap an eighty-year-old lady at that time is all professional work of ninjas, and there is no need to tell Myobokusan about such details.
Fukasaku's eyes were a little dull. Is your village full of talented people? How about I join your village? Thinking the whole thing over in his mind, it seems that there is really no problem on the technical level.
The only thing I'm worried about is the consequences. Is it worth it to deal with the masked man and then resurrect a person who has been dead for many years, which will likely trigger a ninja war?
"Well, I can't make up my mind about this matter. Little Jiraiya, come with me to see the master."
"good."
Fukasaku took Jiraiya to see the Great Toad Sage.
The future is inherently vague, and it can change at any time.
The initial prophecy only mentioned that Jiraiya was the key person in guiding the child of prophecy. Because of the great sage's words, Jiraiya abandoned the village, abandoned his "best friend" Orochimaru, abandoned Tsunade, and spent most of his life wandering around the world.
The prophecies that followed were much more specific, such as "a blue-eyed boy who calls out the name of the nine-headed beast and plays with it."
After Jiraiya's death, the prophecy given to Naruto became more accurate. Today it was "encountering an octopus" and tomorrow it was "fighting a boy with eye power."
It was as if it had seen it with its own eyes.
Now that Jiraiya is still alive, and is not the "son of an old friend" like Ashura's reincarnation, the great immortal's prophecy is still vague.
After pretending to be crazy for a while, the immortal left a prophecy that "blonde hair will change the world" and then fell asleep again.
Jiraiya was a little confused. Is the one with blond hair the child of prophecy? There are so many people with blond hair!
Minato Namikaze and Naruto are both blondes. If we expand the scope, Tsunade and Ino are also blondes. What about Yukito, Temari, and Samui? They are all blondes. Who can you say?!
Jiraiya planned to stay quietly in Myoboku Mountain for two days, think things over carefully, and then make a decision.
The other side.
Thinking that his eyes could still make a contribution to Konoha, Shisui hurried to find Uchiha Itachi.
The fourth generation Minato Namikaze was in power for just over a year. He had an excellent personal image and his work style was highly praised. If it were possible to resurrect this leader, Shisui would be willing.
Using Kotoamatsukami to control an eighty-year-old old lady to her death does not put much moral pressure on Shisui. The two sides are enemies, and there is nothing wrong with using the enemy's life to exchange for the life of one's own leader.
