Chapter 177 The Fourth Month
They need the researchers from Mount Myōboku to study and strengthen the Chosen One, so that they can use the weapon to deal with Uchiha Tsuki.
Although disappointed, the Great Toad Sage did not refuse, as it was all for the sake of the world. So, he directly packed up all the toads with scientific research capabilities from Mount Myōboku and sent them there. He even decided to work remotely and use his remaining lifespan to contribute to the ninja world.
United we stand! We will destroy Uchiha Tsukuyomi!
Having come to terms with reality, and with Isshiki Otsutsuki unifying the entire ninja world under the banner of the Chosen One, the ninja world is now united like never before, with all sorts of ingenious ideas being proposed every day.
Never before in history has the ninja world been so united in its desire to kill one person!
Time passed quietly.
In the blink of an eye, the third month ended, and the fourth month of Uchiha Tsuki's awakening of the Mangekyou Sharingan began, and it was even approaching the fifth month. The concentration of natural energy in the ninja world had reached a low point, and the Great Toad Sage was in utter despair. Now, the only option was to kill Uchiha Tsuki.
After killing Uchiha Tsukuyomi, their Mount Myōboku would be downgraded from a sacred place, and from then on, no more Sages would emerge. If this were a past era, an era before chakra existed, then this would be the true end of the Dharma era.
What immortals? What intelligent animals? These things can't possibly exist!
The only species capable of possessing intelligence is humankind. Human intelligence does not rely on so-called natural energy, but rather on its own inherent nature.
Humans are naturally intelligent beings, possessing a great wisdom that other animals cannot possess.
This is not something that natural energy can compensate for; it is a genetic problem, a hardware problem.
If it weren't for the extraordinary power of chakra compensating for the physical deficiencies of these lower beings, the disappearance of natural energy would have wiped out Mount Myōboku. If others went to Mount Myōboku, they would only see a bunch of babbling, mentally challenged toads.
Immortal, how did you become mentally challenged?
Oh dear, powerful immortal, I'm so sorry, I didn't see you and accidentally stepped on you and killed you!
The Great Toad Immortal recalled what he had once seen: a fox demon who, for some reason, lost its natural power and transformed into an ordinary animal. Then, a human stepped on its head, causing its head to tilt to the side, emitting a sharp wail. It defecated and urinated, and its body convulsed. The monster that could kill humans at will had died just like that.
Just looking at it made him feel a sense of sorrow and pain.
Back then, natural energy was everything to these lower beings. They called themselves immortals, or what humans called demons, and appeared incredibly powerful. However, only the Great Toad Immortal knew that their so-called power was all an illusion. In the past, they...
They are nothing more than a group of floating creatures chasing after natural energy.
It appears incredibly powerful, but in reality, it's only on the surface.
However, now that they possess chakra, the toads of Mount Myōboku have completely transcended their former low-level existence. Their intelligence has become heritable. The disappearance of their natural abilities will have a significant impact on Mount Myōboku, but it will not lead to its extinction.
As long as Uchiha Tsukuyomi is killed, the lineage of Mount Myōboku will not be broken, and the natural energy will eventually recover. At that time, a new sage will surely emerge from Mount Myōboku.
The disappearance of the immortals is better than the destruction of Mount Myōboku.
Moreover, the current situation is not necessarily a bad thing. After all, they have given Sage Mode to the entire ninja world. Originally, the existence of Sage Mode would have posed a threat to Mount Myōboku, but now that no one can use Sage Mode, there is naturally no threat.
Their ninjutsu has been passed down for so many years at Mount Myōboku, and it is not inferior to their skills!
In reality, for a sage like the Great Toad Sage who has long since reached the limit of his lifespan and relies entirely on sage energy, the cost-effectiveness of using sage techniques and ordinary ninjutsu is different. Ninjutsu is more useful than sage techniques.
Using magic too much will damage their bodies. They were already dying, so why were their oxygen tubes being pulled out and put back in repeatedly?
Ninjutsu is different. Chakra is a combination of mental and physical strength. As long as you don't push yourself too hard or exceed your physical limits, it's essentially just a way to train your body. Reading a book is just a way to expend physical and mental energy. There's no such thing as an old man burning his life force while walking or reading.
That's why there are still many ninjutsu techniques at Mount Myōboku.
"What's happening in the ninja world?"
On the moon, Otsutsuki Toneri stopped training that day. In his spare time, he looked towards the ninja world. If he weren't blind, he would have been able to see that a huge black spot had appeared on that blue planet.
Unfortunately, he was blind. Although he could perceive the outside world through chakra and see a three-dimensional world, so he wasn't completely oblivious to the outside world, a blind man is still a blind man, and the world he could perceive had its limits.
That is why, when Uchiha Tsuki's power was not yet too great, there was nothing unusual in the ninja world as perceived by Otsutsuki Toneri.
But now, he finally realized something was wrong.
"What on earth happened? Something's wrong, something really wrong!"
Otsutsuki Toneri felt uneasy. He quickly went to the giant Tenseigan, connected with it, and used it to look at the ninja world.
However, just one glance was enough to shock him, and his face showed an expression of utter astonishment.
"What the hell is this thing?"
He stared in horror at the Ninja World, which was as dark and gloomy as mold. This scene was completely beyond his imagination; the Ninja World should not be like this.
He couldn't understand it, but he knew that the ninja world was definitely facing some kind of threat.
"Wait for that spot."
Suddenly, he realized something was wrong.
"That location is the Land of Fire, where Konoha is located! Oh no, Hinata!!!"
Otsutsuki Toneri shuddered, a bad look appearing on his face. His fiancée was still in Konoha. Although Hinata didn't know him at all, that didn't stop him from unilaterally mistaking Hinata for his fiancée.
Moreover, and most importantly, Hinata's pure Byakugan is what he needs. Without those eyes, how could he awaken the power within him, destroy the ninja world, and create a new world?
"No, I have to go down there!"
