Uchiha's personal opinion

This was also based on the so-called method of refining external avatars from the cultivation novels Uchiha Tokumitsu had read in his previous life, and now it seemed to have some effect.

As the power of Fire Release within him merged with that of Firelight Lord, Uchiha Tokumitsu felt his senses becoming increasingly acute, and even the natural energies that he could only perceive subtly in the past became clearly visible.

"Celestial arts..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu licked his lips, calmed his mind, and continued his training.

……

"Lord Tokumitsu..."

Upon seeing Uchiha Tokumitsu emerge from the meditation room, a ninja attendant immediately teleported forward and knelt on one knee.

"What's matter?"

Uchiha Tokumitsu asked casually.

"Someone is requesting an audience; their identity is rather special..."

The attendant ninja hesitated before speaking.

"who is it?"

Uchiha Tokumitsu frowned.

"It was Jiraiya and two talking toads wearing cloaks."

The attendant ninja replied.

"A green-skinned toad?"

"Yes!"

"I see……"

Uchiha Tokumitsu frowned even more. "Take them to the reception room to wait, then call back the First Division!"

"As ordered!"

The ninja attendant left immediately after receiving the purchase.

Uchiha Tokumitsu then went into the inner room to change his clothes.

A talking toad... needless to say, it must be a ninja beast from the Myoboku lineage, Jiraiya's summoning contract partner.

"How dare this insignificant alien interfere in human affairs? They are simply courting death!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu felt extremely disgusted.

Originally, adhering to the principle of "keeping to themselves," Uchiha Tokumitsu had neither good nor bad feelings towards the so-called three holy lands of the ninja world. At most, he would allow the police department to hunt down some harmful creatures such as toads, poisonous snakes, and slugs in the village, but he would not interfere much else.

Especially Jiraiya, one of the successors of the three holy lands, was left to his own devices by Uchiha Tokumitsu. Otherwise, he would not have let him go even after killing the former Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, and seizing the Konoha Complete Manual.

But since they've come knocking, don't blame Uchiha Tokumitsu for causing some trouble.

Chapter 258 The Visitor is Not Friendly

People's likes and dislikes, good and bad, are determined by their position.

In his previous life, Uchiha Tokumitsu thought Jiraiya was an incredibly free-spirited and passionate person, but now, in this situation, he felt that this person was utterly brainless.

"He even brought two toads with him! I really don't know what this guy was thinking..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu originally didn't want to have anything to do with the so-called three holy lands of summoning beasts, but if they came to him on their own initiative, he wouldn't mind using some tricks.

"Now that you two immortals have arrived, what exactly are your orders that made you travel all this way?"

Jiraiya lowered his voice and asked the two green toads wearing cloaks, "If there's really something wrong, why not just send a decree to have him go to Mount Myōboku?"

"The master's instructions naturally have their reasons, and we don't need to guess."

One of the female toads, with green skin and purple lips, spoke.

"Say less!"

Another toad complained, "Who knows if that old man is still half asleep, making us run all this way to see a mere mortal..."

"If you're not happy about it, you can go back now."

A figure appeared at the entrance of the reception room, startling the man and the two toads inside.

Jiraiya and the two toads were both top-tier ninjas in the ninja world, but their senses failed to detect anyone arriving at the door.

Uchiha Tokumitsu strode in, and the eyelids of the three characters in the courtyard who witnessed his figure twitched involuntarily, wondering if there was something wrong with their senses.

Neither ninjas nor ordinary people should be so insignificant.

Then, the man and the two toads immediately dismissed their doubts about their own perception.

Hundreds of powerful chakra waves approached from afar and quickly descended around the reception room, completely enveloping it.

The two toads even sensed a faint, spying chakra fluctuation in the ground and air, constantly monitoring them.

Immediately afterwards, dozens of chilling auras passed through the partition walls around the reception room and locked onto him firmly.

Although the barrier was not activated, under the blockade of the First Division of the Deko Red Guard, if a fight broke out, the one person and two toads inside the hall would have no chance of escape.

What are you trying to do?!

Jiraiya jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

Uchiha Tokumitsu ignored the startled Jiraiya and walked to the seat of honor, looking down at the man and the two toads.

"You two are guests from Mount Myoboku, aren't you...?"

Uchiha Tokumitsu said leisurely, "I have long admired your name, and I am sorry for not greeting you sooner."

"General Deguang, although we are far away in the remote lands of Mount Myōboku, we have long admired the illustrious name of the Uchiha clan. Today, we are fortunate enough to meet you and know that the rumors are true..."

The green toad with white beard and eyebrows said, "I am Fukasaku of Mount Myōboku, and this is my wife, Shima. I have come to pay my respects on the orders of the Great Master Toad of Mount Myōboku. Please forgive me if I have disturbed you."

"Although we have never met, I have long admired your name..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu nodded and said, "Give my regards to the Toad Sage."

"I will certainly convey General Deguang's sentiments..."

Fukasaku replied just as humbly.

But he no longer had that initial loud and impatient energy.

Uchiha Tokumitsu nodded, expressing satisfaction with the effectiveness of the show of force.

The reason for recalling the Red Guards was not because Uchiha Tokumitsu was particularly afraid of the two toads visiting Mount Myōboku, but simply to intimidate them and make them more obedient and sensible.

"Since you two have come all the way from Mount Myoboku, you must have something to do, right?"

Uchiha Tokumitsu stopped beating around the bush and said directly, "It is said that the Toad Sage can sense and foresee the future in his dreams. I wonder what brings you two here today?"

Jiraiya looked surprised, while the two toads exchanged a glance.

However, he quickly came to terms with it. Jiraiya had mentioned the various mystical aspects of Mount Myōboku to his teacher, Hiruzen Sarutobi. Perhaps after the civil war, Uchiha Tokumitsu had seen the relevant files in the secret archives of the Hokage's office.

"The great immortal's abilities are beyond our comprehension..."

Fukasaku first clasped his hands in a gesture of respect towards the sky, then said, "I do have a request, but it might put General Tokumitsu in a difficult position..."

"If you knew it would put me in a difficult position, why did you come to see me in the first place?"

Uchiha Tokumitsu wore a faint smile as he sneered mercilessly, "Does the Myoboku lineage really think they can control the course of the ninja world?"

These words immediately created a tense atmosphere in the reception room.

Jiraiya also felt the atmosphere outside the hall become even more intense.

Fukasaku and Shima were both somewhat surprised, wondering why Uchiha Tokumitsu would suddenly turn on them like that.

However, they cannot openly use force to coerce others, as that would violate the principle of seclusion of the Myoboku lineage.

"The human world is the foundation of the ninja world, and we, the lineage of Mount Myōboku, naturally keep an eye on it, but we would not call it interference or manipulation..."

After a moment's thought, Shen Zuo explained, "We have come here because the Great Immortal perceived a prophecy of the future in his dream, so we have come to pay our respects to General Deguang..."

"prophecy……"

Uchiha Tokumitsu fell into deep thought.

In my past life's memories, unlike the reclusive attitude of Shikkotsu Forest and Ryuchi Cave, the Myoboku lineage has always had a relatively deep connection with the human world. Even the reason why the Sage of Six Paths was able to successfully seal Kaguya Otsutsuki was due to the shadow of the Great Lord of Myoboku.

But while others might not know the inside story about the Uchiha clan's bloodline and lineage, Uchiha Tokumitsu, like that giant toad of Mount Myōboku, knew it very well!

Ultimately, the Uchiha clan, including the Senju clan who inherited the Sage Body bloodline, and the Hyuga and Kaguya clans who originated from the Otsutsuki Hamura lineage, are all descendants of extraterrestrials!

As for the native spirits of Mount Myōboku, Uchiha Tokumitsu had no idea what their attitude was towards his own bloodline ninja clan.

"Then let's talk about it..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu said, "Since the Great Sage has put it this way, if it's not something particularly difficult, perhaps I can agree."

"...Since that's the case, then I'll be frank."

Fukasaku breathed a sigh of relief, straightened his back, and said, "The Great Sage prophesied that there would be a savior of the ninja world in Konoha, but due to General Tokuko's rise against the tide, the prophecy has been completely disrupted. Therefore, the Great Sage hopes that General Tokuko will allow us to enter Konoha to investigate."

Savior……

Uchiha Tokumitsu tilted his head, looking somewhat disgusted.

It's that same old set of inexplicable prophecies that place all the future in someone else's predetermined fate!

"What do you think, Jonin Jiraiya?"

Uchiha Tokumitsu turned his gaze to Jiraiya, who seemed somewhat uneasy after hearing this, and said quietly, "Do you also think that Mount Myōboku's request is reasonable?"

Jiraiya remained silent.

He was also from Konoha, so he naturally understood what Fukasaku's request meant for a ninja village.

If it were a matter of sneaking into a ninja village quietly, even if some clues were found, everyone could turn a blind eye and pretend not to know. But if someone were to openly request to enter a ninja village for inspection, it is estimated that no ninja village leader would agree to such an impudent request.

This isn't about how much loss the sacred land's summoning beasts entering the ninja village would cause, but rather because it concerns the dignity of the entire ninja village!

What are summoned beasts?

To put it nicely, they're called battle partners; to put it bluntly or with a harsh contract, they're just battle servants. If such beings were allowed into the village for "inspection," Konoha would be in an uproar.

Although the Summoning Beast Holy Land holds a transcendent status, due to various inexplicable restrictions, the strongest individuals of the three Holy Lands have basically never left their respective Holy Lands. Therefore, the powerful figures of the ninja world do not take them too seriously, and although they are strong, they are not strong enough to overturn the order of the human world.
