"Sage Fukasaku, how is the ninja world?"
The first thing Minato asked after opening his eyes was about the ninja world. He had been training in Mount Myoboku all this time, and all the information he had came from Fukasaku. Every time his training time passed, he could not wait to ask the ninja world questions.
"It's still very balanced now. It's not a big problem. Today is the appointed day. Are you ready?" Fukasaku said casually. He didn't care much about the ninja world. Instead, he cared more about the next competition.
"I'm ready, but..." Minato paused for a moment. He still maintained his orange eyeshadow and looked very stable. He said, "Do I really have to compete with Kushina?"
"Minato, I want to advise you not to treat her lightly just because she is a girl. I have secretly heard that her progress is very exaggerated. Even the Great Toad Sage personally guided her. You may not be a match for her!" Fukasaku took a deep breath and said. He was very pleased to see Minato's progress. In such a short time, he had completely surpassed his teacher, Jiraiya. However, Minato's opponent was even more powerful. He did not expect Mount Myoboku to meet such two geniuses at the same time.
"Kushina is so powerful?!"
The corner of Minato's mouth twitched. Fukasaku only said about Kushina when he started training. From then on, Fukasaku only talk about training, and he didn't say anything about Kushina, so he didn't know what level she had reached.
For the matter of Kushina's strength becoming stronger.
Minato was very happy!
After all, she was the girl he liked!
But...
From another perspective...
His status in the family was going to fall further.
This time.
Maybe it's not just him who took the initiative to give way to this Red Hot Habanero!
If he couldn't even beat her...
Then his future days would probably become colorful.
"Sage Fukasaku..."
"You are not deliberately putting pressure on me, are you?"
"You saw it too!"
"I can now easily sense the natural energy around me. I can enter the Sage mode in a very short time and can maintain it for at least two hours. I can't imagine Kushina to be more powerful than me!"
Minato stared at the Fukasaku, who was not far away from him, and there was a trace of doubt in his eyes. During this period of time, he devoted almost all his attention to training, and even he himself felt that the extent of his progress was very terrible, especially in his perception of natural energy. One day, he suddenly seemed to be enlightened and could integrate with nature.
At this time, he can enter the Sage Mode in a very short time only by clapping his hands together and maintaining a still posture. Moreover, during the process of using the Sage Mode, he could almost reach other microscopic-level insights. His overall combat ability was completely different from before he came to Mount Myoboku.
After reaching such a level of strength.
Naturally, it would give rise to a sense of invincibility that had always been in his heart.
It was as if no one in the ninja world was his match anymore.
However...
This feeling only lasted for a moment in Minato's heart before it was forcibly suppressed by him. His good manners made him unable to have any thoughts of underestimating his enemy.
"Minato, you better be mentally prepared. If you are not strong enough, do not force yourself. It is not a shame to lose to Kushina."
Fukasaku sighed.
He did not know how powerful Kushina was.
At that time, his reaction was not much different from the current Minato.
But...
These words were said by the Great Toad Sage, and there would definitely be no mistakes. The only possible reason was...
Kushina's talent in Senjutsu was higher than that of Minato!
What a terrible existence!
Fukasaku didn't know how to describe his feelings. He looked at Minato and suddenly felt a sense of mutual pity. The decline of Minato's family status also indicated the decline of his family status. This was a mutual relationship. After all, he made a bet with his wife Shima, and the housework in the next few years would probably be his.
"This..."
The corners of Minato's mouth twitched unconsciously. He had already heard a lot of doubts from Fukasaku, and he was even more curious about how strong Kushina was now.
"Minato, get ready and change your clothes. Half an hour later, I will take you to see the Great Toad Sage. At that time, you will spar with Kishina under the witness of the Great Toad Sage. This is the last stop of your practice in Mount Myoboku. After that, you will return to the ninja world and do what you want to do."
After saying this, Fukasaku immediately turned around.
At the same time.
In his mind, he recalled the scene when he went to see the Great Toad Sage.
The huge Great Toad Sage sat on a tall chair, staring at the huge crystal ball in front of him with an expressionless face. He did not speak for a long time.
In the huge high hall.
Sage Fukasaku and Sage Shima stood side by side, neither making a sound, they were silently waiting for Great Toad Sage.
After a period of time.
The Great Toad Sage seemed to have woken up. His gaze began to move downwards, landing on Sage Fukasaku and Sage Shima.
"Fukasaku."
"I told you that Little Jiraiya's student would be the child of prophecy who would save the world."
"Do you still remember such a thing?"
The Great Toad Sage spoke very slowly. His simple words gave the two sages enough time to think.
"I remember." Sage Fukasaku immediately replied.
"I had another dream last night..."
The Great Toad Sage's voice slowly rang out again, and then he said something that both Sage Fukasaku and Sage Shima felt extremely shocked.
"I dreamed of the child of the prophecy."
"He didn't save the world by himself!"
"Just like how Hagoromo had the help of Hamura back then!"
"There is a very capable helper beside the child of prophecy!"
"I suspect that the helper might be..."
When the Great Toad Sage said this, he suddenly became serious, and even his tone became more serious.
"Uzumaki Kushina!"
When the Great Toad Sage said this, everyone was speechless, and no one dared to speak.
"I saw the shadow of the Sage of the Six Paths on her!"
