Naruto: From Capturing the Main Clan to Becoming the Mastermind

Chapter 56 The Great Toad Immortal

Minato remained on guard for a while, until Kushina brought over the unconscious Six-Tails Jinchuriki, at which point he cast an inquiring glance.

"Minato is probably gone."

Kushina shook her head at Minato's gaze. "I can no longer sense any malice."

As she spoke, a look of relief appeared on Kushina's face. "Luckily, I activated Malice Sense as soon as I arrived on the battlefield."

To be honest, she didn't really like this ability that she obtained by plundering the Nine-Tails' chakra.

She never used it in Konoha.

Because once she uses it, she always senses malice in crowded places. It might not be directed at her, but it's still very upsetting.

Upon hearing this, Minato breathed a sigh of relief and turned his gaze to the toad beside him.

"Master Fukasaku, why did you use reverse summoning jutsu to come here?"

"It was the master who sent me to rescue people; he also foresaw some things." Fukasaku observed the direction, then hopped away into the distance. "I have some things to attend to, so I won't disturb you any longer."

"thank you!"

After sincerely thanking them, Minato looked at the injured Fugaku and said to the two of them, "Fugaku, let me take you back to the camp first. You've used up too much energy."

This time, Fugaku Uchiha didn't force him. He nodded and used his Mangekyou Sharingan to give the tailed beast a command: "The Three-Tails will obey your commands now. From now on, it's up to you, Fourth Hokage."

He's in such a bad state that following the two of them would only hold them back; it would be better for him to go back to the rear.

"Okay." Minato nodded, turning back to look at the white Zetsu clone with a solemn expression.

There are still many things to deal with after this war.

……

"It failed."

Inside a barrier, Hinata Yu slowly opened his eyes.

"Did the Great Toad Sage send you to find me?"

"..."

Far from the water gate, Fukasaku, who had come here on the orders of the Great Toad Sage, had an extremely solemn expression.

What does this boy with the rolled-up eyes know?

"We're not enemies, and there aren't any white creatures here, so why do you look so serious?" Hinata Yu chuckled.

After a moment of silence, the immortal Shen Zuo carefully said, "The master wishes to see you."

"This is just an avatar; if that person wishes, they can meet it."

Hinata Yu smiled calmly, "However, if you wish to see the real person, please forgive me for not having the time."

Upon hearing this, the sage Fukasaku recalled his conversation with the Great Toad Sage a few minutes earlier.

If you encounter a boy who rolls his eyes, invite him over.

The conversation did not specify whether the other party was the original entity.

"A clone...that would work too."

After a pause, Shen Zuoxianren said, "Then let's go."

Hinata Yu nodded.

……

Mt. Miaomu.

After Fukasaku brought Hyuga Hato to the sage, the Great Toad Sage awoke from his slumber, looked at the face he had seen more than once in his dreams, and sighed.

The first time I dreamed of you was six months ago.

As if knowing what Hinata Yu wanted to hear, the Great Toad Sage waved his toad paw, dismissing Fukasaku, and said, "I was no longer able to deal with you back then. Are you satisfied with this answer?"

Hinata Yu's shadow clone looked at the giant, ancient toad in front of him and shook his head slightly.

"Not satisfied."

"Our interests are aligned."

Upon hearing this, the Great Toad Sage paused for a moment, then said, "You are not an Otsutsuki, so you won't cause this planet to die. As for the rights and wrongs of the ninja world, they have nothing to do with Mount Myōboku, so I haven't interfered in your affairs."

"..."

Seeing Hinata Yu looking at it with a light smile, the Great Toad Sage smiled helplessly, "No matter what I say now, you won't believe me, will you?"

"It is only natural to be wary of a being that can predict the future, before we understand the source and principle of your ability, or until we possess absolute power."

Hinata Yu spoke with apprehension, but his expression was relaxed.

"Whether you believe it or not, I don't know whether I'm acting according to your expectations. So, I can only seize your weakness."

Great Toad Sage: "So, you haven't left Konoha yet, you've become close friends with Minato and the others, and you've even arranged a series of backup plans around them, one of the reasons being to prevent me from making a move?"

"Don't you? People hate changes that go against their plans, so what about you?" Hinata Yu chuckled.

The Great Toad Sage sat in the chair, his aged expression no longer showing a smile, and he closed his eyes slightly.

Change...it's definitely something to hate!

If it weren't for Hyuga Yu's unexpected intervention, and things had progressed smoothly as planned, the ninja world could have had a glorious future.

But now, he hasn't seen in his dream where the changes brought about by Hinata Yu will lead the future.

Therefore, if Hyuga's death can bring the ninja world back on track, it will definitely take action!

Unfortunately, it wasn't lying at first. By the time it saw the other person, it was too late—not six months ago, but two years ago.

That was the first time Hinata Yu appeared in its dream. Something the other party did made it want to take action, but the future of taking action then appeared in its dream.

If Hyuga Yu had been exposed two years ago, with the help of Minato, Jiraiya, and even Konoha, he could still have been killed even if the opponent had Izanagi.

But in the end, the opponent will escape using a strange reincarnation technique.

When the enemy reappears, it will be the time when Mount Myōboku is destroyed...

It didn't see the details in the middle; its dreams lacked certain minutiae, and the images it could foresee were limited.

It seems that the reincarnation technique was set up by Hyuga Yu on certain individuals long ago, and once Hyuga Yu's body dies, his soul will be transferred.

It cannot determine who the other party can reincarnate in, where they were originally, how many backup plans they have, or what the limitations of the reincarnation technique are.

Its ability to foresee the future is ultimately limited, and taking action would be too risky.

Even worse, if the other party were to be directly reincarnated into the chosen one, then it would truly be the end!

Hinata Yu's soul is somewhat special; it strongly suspects that even if it had foreseen the other party earlier, it would not have been able to completely resolve this problem.

The Great Toad Immortal remained silent for a long time before asking:

"You should know about the reincarnations of Indra and Asura, but how can you be sure I will protect them and their parents, or even make concessions for them? The reincarnation doesn't necessarily have to be them."

"Didn't your sending the frog to save Fugaku Uchiha today indirectly prove my point?"

Hinata Yu chuckled lightly, "Simply seeing the future and achieving the desired future are not the same thing."

"The reincarnations of Indra and Ashura don't necessarily have to be Minato and Fugaku's children, but that's what you need."

The giant toad immortal remained silent.

It knew that the other party had indeed grasped its weakness.

The Great Toad Sage looked intently at Hinata Yu.

"You can also see the future? Otherwise, there are some things I can't understand how you know them."

Its understanding of Hinata Yu comes from the foreseen images, but the information revealed in them does not explain why Hinata Yu knows the future.

This young man from the Hyuga clan knows too much, understands too much, and even causes the future to go in different directions, allowing it to see many different futures.

It's impossible to do this unless you understand the future trends yourself.
