Konoha: Start with omniscience and omnipotence

Chapter 135 [134] Big Toad Immortal

"Snapped."

The chess piece falls.

Clicking on the shogi cross grid made a crisp sound.

Angle row oblique finger.

Under the shade of the tree, Jiraiya and Namikaze Minato's master and apprentice were taking advantage of the early morning when there were few people and found a leisurely place on the street to pass the time.

However, the difference between the two people's concentration states can be seen with the naked eye.

The white-haired Jiraiya stared at the chessboard, one foot on the wooden stool, concentrating on the position of each chess piece, and stroking his chin with one hand, looking like he was trying his best.

Minato Namikaze, who was sitting across from him, just sat upright, looking at the ground casually as if his eyes were blank, watching the ants on the ground slowly carrying food scraps as they passed by, looking a little absent-minded.

Ever since he met Aida Masaki a few days ago, Minato has always looked like this listless person.

Jiraiya specially dragged him to play chess for this reason.

"Snapped!"

"Aha~!"

Jiraiya yelled, dropped a piece, and picked up an incense cart from the other side of Minato's chessboard:

"I knew you were going this way!"

"Look, what is the dragnet from the Toad Immortal! It's time for my performance next!"

The white-haired burly man shouted cheerfully, and it seemed that just a little fun in the game could make him happy. It was completely impossible to tell that this guy had just been in a cold war with his teacher a few days ago.

When Jiraiya faces the people closest to him, he always strictly abides by the principle of "not bringing external pressure to those around him."

Whether it was Minato, his disciple, or the woman he hadn't dared to take that step for decades.

That utterly heroic smile always makes it easy for people to think that he doesn't take anything to heart.

"Snapped."

However, in the face of Jiraiya's aggressive offensive, Minato just lowered his head and glanced casually, and then resolved it with a clean move.

I don’t know if I had half a second to think.

"Eh?!"

"Can the situation be broken like this?"

"Let me think about this."

Seeing Jiraiya's pretending to be worried, Minato's lips pursed slightly and then pursed again.

Finally, I couldn't help but ask:

"Jiraiya-sensei."

"Why did you choose me as your disciple?"

"If it were someone else."

Jiraiya didn't even raise his head, staring at the chessboard and said casually:

"Hey Hey hey."

"Do you want to question your teacher's excellent eyesight?"

“I had to choose a lot before I found such an outstanding successor like you!”

"Don't think that because you are good at chess, you can question authority, Minato-kun!"

"You are my chosen son of prophecy!"

"Ah! I'll fly your car!"

As if he had found a way to break the game, Jiraiya yelled and picked up the chess piece, then dropped it with a snap.

Minato didn't even look at it this time, he directly pointed at this deliberately exposed flaw, took away a dragon horse, and continued:

"But...prophecy is such a thing"

"Is it really accurate enough?"

Just as Jiraiya finished his sentence, he suddenly paused.

He raised his head and looked at Namikaze Minato, seeming to be considering his words. Finally, he returned to his calmness and spoke with complete sincerity:

"Watergate."

"As a teacher, it may be irresponsible to say this."

"But to be honest, in terms of ninja talent, I have never seen anyone who can be superior to you."

"Others may have outstanding blood successors, huge chakras, and extraordinary brain power, but you are the only person I have ever seen who can combine all of these perfectly like you."

"Even Orochimaru is quite different from you."

"So."

At this point, Jiraiya continued to drop a chess piece, with a cheerful and calm smile on his face:

"In this world, if there is one person who can save the world as the 'Son of Prophecy'"

"I think it must be you!"

"This is the most correct judgment I have ever made in my life!"

"General!"

The last laurel horse fell.

However, Jiraiya's whole body disappeared with a 'pop', and slight Chakra fluctuations spread around him.

It's reverse spiritualism.

However, Jiraiya didn't see it.

Minato Namikaze sat there quietly as if he didn't notice anything, and closed his eyes helplessly.

His fingertips slowly slid across the chessboard, pulling the flying car at the corner to move sideways.

Eat the Guima and point directly at the Jade General.

Against the general.

Checkmate.

From beginning to end, Jiraiya's response and feedback were within the scope of his design.

Namikaze Minato lowered his head and looked at the chessboard in front of him:

"Just because it is your personal judgment."

"That's why I feel worried,"

"Jiraiya-sensei."

The sunlight falls on the leaves overhead, making a subtle rustling sound when blown by the wind.

Minato's voice became more and more subtle: "Are you really looking for the 'Child of Prophecy'?"

"Or, do you want to find that fool who is in line with your ideals and expectations and refuses to accept reality?"

"teacher."

Ideal and reality, fullness and skinny.

The collision between the two always makes people feel tormented from the bottom of their hearts.

Especially at the awkward age of sixteen when nothing is finalized.

Children who are wiser than adults,

It's always painful.

Myoki Mountain.

Jiraiya, who was still sitting in a sitting position, staggered and almost fell to the ground. Two stubbles on his chin were even pulled off, and he gasped in pain.

When he saw Fukasaku Sennin standing next to him with a furious look on his face, he grinned and asked angrily:

"Boss! What's the matter, so urgent?"

"I am in the process of connecting with my dear little apprentice and enlightening my heart!"

"The spiritual communication between master and disciple is very important, why does it have to be at this time?"

Fukasaku Sennin took a deep breath: "Stop nagging! Come with me quickly!"

"The Great Toad Immortal is awake!"

"I want to see you by name."

Jiraiya was stunned for a moment, put away his usual joking demeanor, his expression became more serious, returned to his vigorous and resolute appearance on the battlefield, and quickly followed Fukasaku Sennin up the mountain.

The two of them followed the stairs and entered the deepest part of the temple.

On the high altar for worship, an old toad with a height of several meters and wrinkled skin was seen sitting in the center of the throne, with his hands on the soft cushions and a large bead with the word "oil" written on it hanging around his neck.

The voice of the Great Toad Immortal is old and weathered:

"Who is coming?"

One word at a time.

Against the background of the quiet and remote atmosphere, it feels like a fairy from another world.

As a result, as soon as he finished speaking, he saw Immortal Shima sitting next to him angrily picking up the paper fan and banging it on his throne, saying angrily:

"old man!"

"Isn't it fun to play like this every time?"

"It's little Jiraiya! Little Jiraiya!"

"Didn't you ask him to come here?"

"Cough cough cough"

Fukasaku Sennin below suddenly coughed and winked at his wife desperately.

In the past, the Great Toad Immortal would have stayed idle for a while, pretending to be senile for a while, and waited until others started to annoy him before he started talking about serious things slowly.

I've seen Jiraiya several times since he was a child.

But this time, the performance of the Great Toad Immortal was very unexpected.

"Crunch--"

It was seen that it was holding the armrest with difficulty, straightening its huge body, and under the astonished eyes of everyone, it forcefully opened its eyes and asked seriously:

"Little Jiraiya."

"Did something major happen in Konoha?"

"No, no?"

Jiraiya also had a confused look on his face when he heard this, and subconsciously explained: "If we have to talk about a big event, the only thing that happened was the destruction of Amegakure Village."

"Ah, yes, that guy Danzo is dead too!"

"If you think about it carefully, these things are quite important!"

"No, it's not these."

The Great Toad Immortal held up his body with difficulty, his expression extremely serious:

"Think more carefully!"

"A very critical change must have occurred recently!"

However, when Jiraiya thought about it in the end, he didn't find anything happened in the village:

"Big Toad Immortal!"

"Just tell me what is going to happen next, and I will definitely help you find it after I return to Konoha."

After many years of contact, the relationship between Jiraiya and Myobokuyama has long been bound together, and there is no possibility of separation.

The Son of Prophecy is one of the most critical prophetic achievements in recent years.

And the guidance of the Great Toad Immortal also successfully allowed him to find Minato, the treasure boy.

However, this time, the Great Toad Immortal did not show his usual strategizing and reserved attitude. Instead, like a real decrepit old man, he sighed deeply and said in a sad voice:

"In my latest precognitive dream"

"Everything in this world has been overturned."

"Whether it's a civilian, a ninja, or a tailed beast."

"The moment when the 'sword' stuck in the soil was pulled out."

"it's all over."

"Including, the Children of Prophecy."

Yesterday (1/2)

Let me report the situation to everyone.

Last night after get off work, a motorcycle going the wrong way looked past a truck and hit me. Because the speed was low, nothing happened. The surveillance video and insurance were all there, so I didn’t worry about it. It turned out that the one was more horizontal, so I got up. Then he pulled my collar from the car window and started a fight.

Then I was brought in by passers-by to educate me. After I finished all the recordings and reluctantly reached a settlement, I had been working on it for half a night. I was tired and frustrated all day long. I quit last night and now I have just finished writing the first chapter.

I'm really sorry that my personal situation affects the update.

But I still think it’s better to beat him than I should, so I’ll beat him again if he comes back.

Chapter 2 will be updated tonight.
