Mt. Miaomu.
When Kakashi came to his senses again, he was already inside it.
Surrounded by lush greenery, the natural atmosphere permeates this sacred land, making people feel refreshed and relaxed.
The two old masters, Fukasaku and Itama, who had been waiting for him for a long time, were sitting on the rocks in front of him, watching Kakashi with solemn yet slightly gratified expressions.
Fukasaku spoke first, saying, "You've finally arrived, the disciple of the Fourth Hokage."
After Kakashi politely greeted the several Myoboku toads he already knew...
Guided by the two hermits, Fukasaku and Shima, we slowly entered the depths of Mt. Myoboku along a quiet, winding path.
Within this peaceful and secluded realm stands a magnificent palace, yet it exudes an ancient charm.
Upon entering the hall, Kakashi immediately saw the Great Toad Sage sitting in the very center, tall and majestic yet with a benevolent expression.
The giant toad immortal seems to be fast asleep at this moment...:
The surroundings were completely quiet.
Kakashi was in no hurry to disturb him, and quietly waited for the Sage to awaken.
After a long while, the Great Toad Immortal finally slowly opened his eyes.
He lowered his head slightly, gazing at Kakashi below who was waiting quietly and patiently.
"A young child capable of fully inheriting the immortal techniques of Ryuchi Cave,"
"Next, you will train in our sage arts at Mount Myōboku."
Kakashi nodded slightly upon hearing this, showing no unease or doubt on his face.
Although the natural energies of the three holy lands are different, and their respective lineages also have significant differences, he felt no resentment at this moment, accepting this new challenge with a calm mind.
Kakashi knew in his heart that ever since he inherited the Sage Mode from Ryuchi Cave, he had become one of the links in maintaining balance between the three sacred lands and the ninja world.
Although he never proactively mentioned any interaction between himself and the Sage of Six Paths...:
However, the fact that Mount Myōboku has now taken the initiative to invite him to come and cultivate immortal arts, to some extent, also represents the attitude of the Sage of Six Paths towards him.
Of course, Kakashi didn't want to disrupt this delicate balance.
Fukasaku and Ichima then led Kakashi into the place where they were training in Sage Mode.
Compared to Ryuji-dong...
The magical arts of Mount Myōboku have a complete system suitable for humans.
The two immortals then began their explanation...
Kakashi sat cross-legged, slowly closed his eyes, and quietly felt the unique natural energy of Mount Myōboku...
With the explanation from the two toad immortals...:
He gradually entered a deep and selfless state of spiritual practice.
While Kakashi was diligently training at Mount Myōboku, in Konoha Village...
Not long after Jiraiya took Naruto away...
The Anbu quickly realized that the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki and Kakashi had both disappeared at the same time, and immediately reported the news to the Third Hokage, Hiruzen.
Hiruzen sat in the Hokage's office, holding intelligence delivered by the Anbu, his brow furrowed.
Kakashi and Naruto have both disappeared.
How is that possible?
After a moment of contemplation, Hiruzen decided to personally go to the stream where Kakashi and Naruto had previously trained to investigate.
However, when he arrived at that secluded place, the scene before him took him completely by surprise...:
Jiraiya was sitting alone by the stream, calmly and intently grilling fish.
The firelight illuminated his face, the interplay of light and shadow revealing a subtle complexity.
Upon seeing the Third Hokage appear, Jiraiya showed no surprise, simply calmly handing Hiruzen a skewer of freshly grilled fish: "Old man, have a taste."
Hiruzen took the grilled fish, hesitated for a moment, and then asked directly, "Where did Kakashi and Naruto go?"
Upon hearing this question, Jiraiya smiled slightly and replied calmly, "Kakashi has gone to Mount Myōboku to train in Sage Mode. As for Naruto, I have temporarily placed him in another safe place."
As soon as he finished speaking, Hiruzen suddenly gripped the fish skewer in his hand tightly, the immense force nearly breaking it.
A flicker of gloom quickly crossed his eyes, and his tone hardened noticeably: "What exactly do you mean, Jiraiya?"
The atmosphere gradually became oppressive, and even the babbling of the stream seemed filled with tension.
Faced with the Third Hokage's sharp and questioning gaze, Jiraiya did not respond immediately; he simply stood up quietly...
He stared at Hiruzen with a serious and resolute expression, his eyes seemingly containing some indescribable emotion.
"Actually, I should be the one asking you that question... old man!"
Those eyes, which were once always gentle and casual, now revealed an unusual disappointment.
"Jiraiya, that look in your eyes is quite interesting..."
Hiruzen's tone carried a hint of teasing.
"The negative natural energy that's permeating the village now...do you really know nothing about it?"
Faced with Jiraiya's relentless questioning, Hiruzen turned his head slightly and fell silent.
After a long silence, he finally spoke, his voice cold and indifferent: "What do you want to say?"
Jiraiya's gaze was intense, his tone revealing deep disappointment and anger: "You're about to steal Naruto's future with your own hands!"
However, upon hearing this accusation, Hiruzen burst into laughter without warning. His laughter was icy and chilling, filled with disdain and mockery: "Jiraiya, what are you whining about?"
Jiraiya's expression gradually turned stern, and his aura exploded as he faced the Hokage he once respected!
"Grandpa, everything you're doing now will only push Konoha and the entire ninja world into deeper darkness..."
Even when faced with Jiraiya's fierce outburst, Hiruzen remained completely unmoved.
His face remained expressionless, his eyes indifferent to the point of being cold, as he slowly approached Jiraiya step by step.
Each step carried an immense sense of oppression: "Darkness? Do you think the ninja world isn't dark enough already?"
His voice was calm and cold, his gaze fixed on the disciple before him without a trace of warmth.
"How many times have I hoped that you could truly shoulder the responsibility of Hokage, but you always make excuses and avoid it. First it was Minato Namikaze, now it's Tsunade... and in the future it might be Kakashi... or even Naruto..."
"You've never even truly served as Hokage for a single day, so what right do you have to point fingers at me?"
That flat and indifferent tone sent a shiver down Jiraiya's spine.
He stared at the Third Hokage before him, and for a moment, it was as if he were facing a complete stranger.
The Third Hokage's eyes were eerily unfamiliar...
For a moment, Jiraiya felt a sense of fear.
"Old man, you've been corrupted by Uchiha Abyss's power, haven't you..."
Hearing Jiraiya's words, Hiruzen smiled: "Even now, you seem to still not understand the mechanics of Uchiha Gen's abilities. There is no such thing as a corrupted Sharingan, only an amplified desire!"
A single word, "desire," and the world changes...
An extremely cold and chilling chakra spread out.
Hiruzen spoke softly, "Jiraiya, I'm giving you one last choice..."
As the image of the Outer Path Dharma slowly rose behind him, the crimson light of his Sharingan was fixed on Jiraiya.
"Accept the Sharingan I bestow upon you...become a part of the will of Konoha..."
