Chapter 118: It’S Impossible To Kill Me
A giant stone frog more than thirty meters high stands in the temple.
The temple is almost full!
Even Gamamaru's size was compared to him.
“This is the first time I’ve seen such a big stone frog.”
"As expected of a Ten Tails larvae!"
Over the thousands of years, many ninjas have come to Mount Myōboku and practiced senjutsu, and many have failed to practice and turned into stone frogs.
The hundreds of stone frogs next to the oil pond were transformed by people who failed to practice immortality.
Stone frogs range in size from large to nearly 10 meters, while small ones are about the same size as an average adult.
The reason why the size is different is because the amount of Chakra of cultivators is different.
The more Chakra a person has, the more natural power will accumulate in his body after failure, and his body will become larger.
Mizuki's Chakra amount is extremely rare, so it only became so large after being petrified.
To the point where Tomamaru, who had seen so much, couldn't help but sigh.
"By the way, Ten Tails larvae shouldn't die that easily, right?"
Tomamaru let go of his senses.
When it felt the vitality that had not been completely extinguished in the stone frog's body, the corners of its mouth split unconsciously.
"Sure enough, it's not that easy to kill. Hehe, that's great."
"As long as it is not completely dead, it means it can still be planted, grow, bloom, and bear fruit."
"If you eat enough fruits of the sacred tree, you can evolve into a god, transcend everything, and become immortal."
Toadmaru has determined that Mizuki is the larvae of Ten Tails, a sacred tree that can bear fruits.
There was an expression of yearning and expectation on his face.
But then, his expression dimmed.
"Hagoromo's will has not dissipated yet, and now is not the time. However, he does not have much left of Chakra. If he consumes it a few more times, it will disappear."
"When the time comes, our toad clan will rise again."
"Back then, Ōtsutsuki took advantage of us being defeated and despicably attacked us, and hunted us down for ten thousand and years, forcing us to hide in this remote corner and survive."
"And now, the opportunity to take back our homeland has come!"
It looked at the stone frog with fiery eyes.
"Let this sacred tree bear fruit. After I eat it, my strength will be further enhanced. When the time comes, I can devour Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, which is equivalent to eating a fruit."
"In addition, there is a sacred tree at Ōtsutsuki Ishiki's place. When he appears, I can take it."
"So that's 3 fruits."
"By then, my strength will be close to that of God."
The smile on its face became more and more unrestrained.
The corners of his mouth were raised, as if he had seen a bright future.
After being happy for a while, its eyes returned to the stone frog.
"To prevent accidents, let's create a seal!"
As soon as it finished speaking, it opened its mouth and sprayed out a beam of Chakra, covering the stone frog.
Green sealing techniques appeared on the surface of the stone frog, densely packed with no dead ends. Immediately afterwards, these sealing techniques penetrated into the stone frog.
On the surface, this is an ordinary stone frog, no different from the stone frogs next to the oil pond.
Looking at his masterpiece, Gamamaru was very satisfied.
"In this way, even at close range, Hagoromo will not see anything abnormal, and will only think that Mizuki is dead."
Toadmaru dispersed the barrier, and the natural power inside the temple immediately dissipated.
Its young body also aged rapidly, turning into the same old appearance before in a blink of an eye.
"Damn Ōtsutsuki, if that sacred tree hadn't absorbed most of the life force of this planet, causing the power of nature to be greatly reduced, I wouldn't have become this old."
It hates!
But what it hates is not that the sacred tree swallowed up the life force of the planet, but that the fruit of the sacred tree was not eaten by itself.
After waving his hand, the temple door opened, and Gamamaru called Fukasaku and Shima in.
"Mizuki is dead. The crisis in the ninja world is over. Take the stone frog out and put it next to the oil pond!"
Fukasaku and Shima looked at the stone frog in front of them and couldn't help but open their mouths.
They knew it was Mizuki's turn, but it was too big.
"Sir, this is too big, we can't lift it at all!"
"Besides, the door is too small, so I can't lift it out!"
After Fukasaku gathered the power of nature and transformed it into the magical Chakra, he could easily lift a stone frog four to five meters high above his head.
Immortal magic gives it great strength, and it can even carry boulders more than ten meters high.
But the stone frog in front of me was more than thirty meters tall, and it knew it couldn't be lifted without even trying.
"Ah, oh, I was negligent!"
Gamamaru returned to his normal and amiable appearance, and spoke very kindly.
He raised his claws and waved, and a space gate swallowed up the stone frog and moved it to the side of the oil pool.
Outside the door, Naruto paused his training.
"Grandpa Fukasaku, when I was practicing just now, I seemed to hear someone calling me."
Fukasaku said: "No one, you heard wrong."
Shima also said: "Little Naruto, you must be focused when practicing senjutsu. You actually think about other things while practicing. This is very dangerous."
Naruto scratched his head and said, "Oh, I know, I will pay attention in the future."
Fukasaku said again: "Let's go. Great Toad Sage's guidance to you has ended. We won't stay here to disturb him. Let's go back to the oil pool and continue practicing."
When Naruto returned to the oil pool and looked at the newly appeared giant stone frog, he became curious again.
"This stone frog has never existed before."
Fukasaku explained: "Some toads have nothing to do and like to carve. I don't know whose masterpiece this stone frog is, it is so big."
With Naruto's IQ, it was easy to be fooled.
Under Fukasaku's guidance, he continued to practice and realize the power of nature.
In the temple, only Toad Pill was left. Suddenly it looked at the sky outside the temple, and its thought came true.
Above the oil pool, Sage of Six Paths appeared out of thin air, looking at the giant stone frog below.
Immediately afterwards, he came to the temple.
"Gamamaru, I didn't expect you to get rid of him so easily."
Gamamaru said: "I didn't expect this. He entered Mount Myōboku by himself. If he didn't come, I really couldn't do anything with him."
Sage of Six Paths smiled and said: "This hidden danger has been eliminated, so we don't have to worry about anything."
"Thanks to you this time, the ninja world owes you another favor."
Gamamaru: "Nothing is owed, our Toad clan has been living here since the day we were born. Since we are all part of the ninja world, it is also our responsibility to protect the ninja world."
The two talked for a while, and Sage of Six Paths left.
Gamamaru showed a kind smile, yawned, and then fell asleep.
Beside the oil pool, Naruto's body, plus 3 Shadow Clone, sit quietly and appreciate the power of nature.
Suddenly, the four Narutos lost control at the same time, their faces became several times larger, and their bodies began to swell.
This is a precursor to petrification.
Fukasaku immediately hit Naruto on the back with a stick, knocking the natural power out of his body.
The three Shadow Clones also dissipated on their own.
"Don't be distracted and focus." Fukasaku scolded.
Suddenly, it noticed that the light had become brighter. When it looked up, it found that the giant stone frog that Mizuki had transformed into was gone.
There are some dreamlike bubbles left in the air.
Before it could figure out what was happening, it felt a dangerous aura coming from behind.
"not good!"
It immediately wanted to hide, but unfortunately it was too late.
"Death to Laozi!"
Mizuki appeared behind Fukasaku, a black rod came out of his hand and pierced Fukasaku's heart directly.
Naruto stared at this scene with wide eyes, already stunned.
"Master Mizuki, what...what is going on?"
Mizuki came to Naruto and said: "Naruto, this is all a conspiracy. I will explain the details later. Now leave Mount Myōboku with me!"
He grabbed Naruto and activated Flying Thunder God, and the two disappeared together. When they reappeared, they were already at the entrance and exit of Mount Myōboku, next to the pool.
Looking towards the direction of the temple, Mizuki sneered: "I told you, it's impossible to kill me."
"Toad clan, I remember you."
After saying that, he jumped into the water with Naruto, passed through the underwater passage as fast as possible, and left Mount Myōboku.
When the two left the lotus pond, Naruto asked: "Master, why did you kill Grandpa Fukasaku?"
Although they had only been together for a few days, Naruto and the toads had already developed feelings for each other.
Seeing Fukasaku die in front of him, Naruto couldn't accept it for a while.
Mizuki said: "Naruto, this is all a conspiracy, a conspiracy against me. Next, I will explain it to you in detail."
Naruto immediately said: "I know, the Great Toad Sage said that you are Ten Tails and that you will destroy the ninja world, but don't worry, Master, I didn't believe it."
Mizuki glanced at Naruto.
Although Naruto said he didn't believe in the giant toad, Mizuki clearly felt that Naruto's tone of voice was not as free and easy as before.
It was obvious that Naruto had doubts about Mizuki's identity.
He didn't know who to believe, or in other words, he didn't dare to believe anyone.
I once believed in Third Generation so much, but it turns out that Third Generation has been lying to itself.
As a result, Naruto is no longer so easy to deceive.
It's just that he has learned a lot and has doubts in his heart, but he doesn't say anything.
Mizuki saw that Naruto was still confused and didn't blame him.
After all, Naruto had very little information and couldn't analyze who was real and who was fake.
"The reason why that old toad said I am Ten Tails is because I can absorb the vitality of plants and animals, but that is the effect of my ninjutsu and has nothing to do with Ten Tails."
Naruto listened to Mizuki's explanation and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Master, since it's a ninjutsu, let's go see the Great Toad Sage and explain it clearly."
Children, so innocent!
Mizuki shook his head.
"I've already seen that old toad. It didn't listen to any explanation and just killed me."
"Just now, it tricked me into entering the temple, and then used the barrier to inject a large amount of natural power into my body, turning me into a stone frog."
Naruto exclaimed: "Master, did you transform that giant stone frog?"
Mizuki looked gloomy and nodded: "Yes, I changed it."
"If I hadn't realized something was wrong and activated Izanagi in advance, I would have died on Mount Myōboku today."
Naruto said: "Fortunately, Master is fine!"
Mizuki nodded and asked, "Have you signed a Summoning blood contract with the Toad clan?"
Naruto nodded: "Signed!"
Mizuki frowned.
"That old toad will still use you to deal with me. It will definitely use the reverse Summoning Technique to summon you to Mount Myōboku."
"They will put you under house arrest, force me to enter Mount Myōboku again to rescue you, and then kill me."
With that said, Mizuki grabbed Naruto and used Flying Thunder God again.
This time, he flew directly back to Phoenix Village.
"Kushina, quickly, use the contract seal to seal the Summoning contract on Naruto."
