Train to Another World.

Chapter 157 Myoboku Mountain

Anyway, it was nothing shameful, so Li Zhuoguang just said it directly: "I heard that the summoning beasts in the ninja world are the most powerful in the three holy places. It just so happens that the Uzumaki Hokage has signed a contract with one of the three holy places, Myoboku Mountain, so I would like to ask the Uzumaki Hokage to take me to visit it."

Danzo had never thought that it would be this kind of thing, and he really had no say in this matter. If it was something else, he could still find a way to grab it, arrange his own men to do it, or even do it himself.

But in Myoboku Mountain, he had killed the messenger toad of Myoboku Mountain. Under normal circumstances, since he and several generations of contractors of Myoboku Mountain belonged to the same ninja village, the toads of Myoboku Mountain would not come to him.

But if he falls into the trap...

"As I promised before, as long as the Minister needs you, you can command all my ninjas." Seeing that things were going to be impossible, Danzo still reminded him. Don't forget our previous agreement, don't change your mind.

Li Zhuoguang clapped his hands and said, "There is indeed something I need you to do."

Danzo was delighted. Opportunities still had to be earned by one's own efforts.

Li Zhuoguang was about to give an order, but when he saw Naruto and Kakashi were still in the room, he stopped talking.

Naruto's brain wasn't quite up to par, but Kakashi clearly wasn't. He bowed and took Naruto away.

Danzo was even happier when he saw this. Sending others away meant keeping secrets. And being able to share secrets was the foundation for building a close relationship.

After the two men left, Li Zhuoguang asked Danzo to come closer and whispered his request to Danzo.

Danzo looked at Li Zhuoguang in surprise and doubt, not knowing what to say.

Li Zhuoguang just asked: "Can it be done?"

Danzo thought about the position of Hokage that he had waited for decades, gritted his teeth, and agreed: "Yes!"

"Okay, then I'll wait for good news from Shimura Hokage. By the way, remember to ask Uzumaki Naruto to come back when you go out." The goal had been achieved, so Li Zhuoguang served tea and saw the guest off.

After a while, Naruto walked into the room again, "What's up, Minister-sama?"

"As I just mentioned, I want to go to Myoboku Mountain."

Before Pain invaded Konoha, Naruto was practicing Sage Mode at Myoboku Mountain.

Recalling the events of Myoboku Mountain, he turned pale and said to Li Zhuoguang, "Brother Minister, we need to bring more food before we go to Myoboku Mountain. The food there is not for human consumption."

Li Zhuoguang waved his hand and said, "We can go there and come back on the same day. I'll just prepare some dry food."

Hearing that he wouldn't have to stay in Myoboku Mountain for long, Naruto was immediately relieved. As long as he didn't have to live there, and could go back to see the two toad sages, Fukasaku and Shima, Naruto was very happy.

When he was in Myoboku Mountain before, the toads taught him the art of anti-spiritualism. In addition, he had signed a contract with Myoboku Mountain, so it was easy for him to return to Myoboku Mountain.

Just coming back...

Following Naruto, Kakashi, carrying a plastic bag, also returned to the room and stared at the Gama Dragon that Naruto had just summoned.

"Please, Mr. Kakashi. I will send a message through the Gama Dragon later. When the time comes, you will need the summoning technique to teleport us back."

Kakashi sighed. He hadn't rested since he returned to Konoha Village. He had just gone to the market to buy two saury to treat himself, but he was called back.

"Okay, I'll stay here." But since it was a commission from the Chancellor of the Exchequer, he couldn't refuse.

Li Zhuoguang glanced at the bag in his hand and said, "The inn is equipped with top-class chefs. With their skills, even ordinary salt-grilled saury can be made delicious. There are also many precious ingredients and Daiginjo in the inn's warehouse. If you have any needs, just tell the waiter." Speaking of this, Kakashi was no longer sleepy. It seems that there is nothing wrong with staying in the inn.

After giving the instructions, Naruto began to cast hand seals. A puff of smoke came out and the two of them disappeared.

At Fukasaku's house, Shima made tea and brought it to the table along with a plate of still-wriggling insects.

Li Zhuoguang ignored the squirming bugs on the plate and took a sip from the teacup, while Huang Shiren squatted on the table and unceremoniously ate the bugs on the plate.

Fukasaku put down his teacup and asked, "You just said you were here to discuss cooperation?"

"Yes."

"It's not that I want to spoil your fun, but we ninja beasts have our own way of survival, and we won't get involved in the affairs of the ninja world.

Even if he appeared in the Ninja World, he was only summoned by the contractor."

"And, you..." Fukasaku looked up and down at Li Zhuoguang, but didn't sense any chakra fluctuations from him. "I don't see any possibility in you that you can become a contractor of Myoboku Mountain."

Li Zhuoguang knew it was impossible without him saying it, after all, he had no chakra. Without chakra, even if he learned the hand seals of spiritualism, he could not summon even a tadpole. Li Zhuoguang had a deep understanding of this when he was a child.

"If the Ninja Beasts don't want to interfere in the affairs of the Ninja World, then why would they sign a contract with the Ninjas?"

Fukasaku replied: "Weaker ninja beasts need to rely on ninjas to survive, but stronger ones have their own reasons.

The one in the Wet Bone Forest likes the chakra of the Senju clan. The stinking snakes in the Ryuchi Cave require the contractor to perform a living sacrifice for them. As for us, it's because of a prophecy.

I won’t reveal the specific content of the prophecy to you, but our first contractor was chosen by the Great Toad Immortal.

The subsequent contractors will be decided by the previous contractors, and we at Myoboku Mountain will not interfere."

Li Zhuoguang certainly knew the content of the prophecy. This big toad immortal did have the ability to predict, but his predictions were rather vague, and even he himself could not accurately determine the content.

In addition, he is old and suffers from Alzheimer's disease, so his predictive ability is even worse. Sometimes he can't even tell whether what he sees is a prophecy or a dream.

Li Zhuoguang took out a bag of dried meat and handed it to Fukasaku: "Although I don't know what prophecy you have been following, I think that no matter what you do, it is always right to improve your own strength."

Fukasaku looked at the jerky in his hand. An extremely tempting aroma emanated from the jerky: "What is this?"

"This is wild beast jerky. Just eat it directly to improve your strength."

Shima, who was listening to their conversation, frowned slightly: "How can there be such a thing? It can be obtained out of thin air without any strength."

Li Zhuoguang nodded: "That's right. If you want to fully utilize the effect of dried meat, you still need to exercise accordingly. However, eating without exercise will still have an effect, just a little weaker."

Fukasaku picked up a piece of jerky and examined it carefully. He couldn't tell what animal it was from. But it didn't matter, he didn't find any poisonous ingredients in it.

So he stuffed the jerky directly into his mouth. Instead of guessing the truth of the other person's words, it is better to experience it directly.

After eating the jerky, Fukasaku's body started to heat up after a while.
