DRAMA NOVEL ONLINE Two days Later
It was finally time for the kids to go to Mount Myōboku, and as per Jiraiya’s instructions, Kuroto led Neji and Hinata to the place where Jiraiya told him to.
As Kuroto and the two kids were waiting for Jiraiya to arrive, suddenly he noted Uchiha Patriarch coming towards them with Sasuke and Kiyomi beside him.
Seeing the three people from the Uchiha Clan coming, Kuroto muttered to himself with a doubtful expression, “Why are they coming here?”
Neji was also stunned as he noted Sasuke and Kiyomi, and immediately said to Kuroto, “Sensei… the matter of going to Mount Myōboku… I told Sasuke. So, maybe he is also…”
Hearing his disciple’s words, Kuroto teased him, “You told Sasuke… aren’t you afraid that your chances of getting the approval of Mount Myōboku will be reduced with two more competitors?”
Neji shook his head with a clear expression, “I am not afraid.”
Kuroto smiled and shook his head.
Uchiha Kiyomi is fine, but Kuroto feels that the addition of Sasuke will cause changes to his plan, after all, Kuroto is very clear about Sasuke’s identity, and considering who lives at Mount Myōboku, there is no way he won’t notice that presence inside Sasuke.
Of course, even if he has such a feeling, he doesn’t plan to do anything about it, if Neji still manages to get the approval of the toads, then very good, but if doesn’t, then that will be a lesson for Neji.
As for the question of how come the Uchiha Clan is here? This isn’t a very tough question.
Uchiha Sasuke must have requested his father to create an opportunity for him too, and Uchiha Fugaku must have talked to Jiraiya. In normal times, Jiraiya would obviously not accept Fugaku’s request, but this isn’t normal times.
Considering the current complex situation of the village, in order to keep the Uchiha clan happy, Jiraiya had no other choice but to agree to Fugaku’s request.
In fact, Kuroto feels that even if the Uchiha clan didn’t know about Neji and Hinata going to Mount Myōboku through Neji, Sandaime-sama would have still leaked this news to the Uchiha Clan using his means so that the Uchiha Clan could owe a favor to the Hokage faction.
If Jiraiya has already agreed to take two kids to Mount Myōboku, then does it really matter if one or two more kids are added?
Obviously No! Adding Sasuke and Kiyomi to the list won’t matter at all.
The excellence of Sasuke and Kiyomi, especially the talent and skills of Sasuke was witnessed by everyone during the recent assessment. Knowing this, if someone says that Sandaime-sama wouldn’t want to draw Sasuke to the Hokage Faction, then Kuroto wouldn’t believe it.
Moreover, now that Shisui and Itachi are no longer part of the Anbu, Sandaime-sama has all the more reason to draw another Uchiha into the Hokage faction, and what better candidate than Uchiha Sasuke?
That’s why we are here with Sasuke and Kiyomi also going to Mount Myōboku.
Soon after the arrival of the three Uchiha clansmen, Jiraiya also showed up.
After greeting the four kids, Jiraiya looked at Kuroto and Fugaku, as he explained, “As I already said previously, I can promise to keep the kids safe… however, whether they can get what they wish in their heart depends on their luck and abilities… I have no say on that, I hope both of you are very clear about this.”
Kuroto and Fugaku nodded together.
With that Jiraiya nodded, “Alright then, now it’s time for us to depart.” then reverse summoned the four children and himself to the Land of the Toads.
After watching the five people disappear in a poof of white smoke, Fugaku turned towards Kuroto and said, “I owe you a favor for this time.”
Fugaku is fairly clear that the only reason Sasuke and Kiyomi have the opportunity to go to Mount Myōboku is Kuroto, if not for Kuroto to convince Jiraiya, it wouldn’t have been possible.
Kuroto shrugged indifferently, “Whatever.” And left the place.
Even if he has no intention of changing anything about Sasuke and Kiyomi going to the Land of Toads, he is not very happy that the two of them are going too. Because he is very clear that the presence of Sasuke in the group will cause changes.
Fugaku remained silent as he watched Kuroto disappear.
…
Mount Myōboku
After arriving at the Land of the Toads, five people met with Elder Fukasaku.
When Jiraiya introduced Elder Fukasaku as his Sensei to the kids, all four of them were taken aback and looked skeptically at the small green toad with a white beard, “He is… Jiraiya-sama’s Sensei? This… how is this possible?”
Feeling the skeptical gazes of the kids, Elder Fukasaku was helpless. He brought Jiraiya to the side, and asked him, “Jiraiya-chan… these kids are…?” The elder Toad was surprised to see so many humans come to Mount Myōboku.
Jiraiya was also a little helpless and explained the entire situation to Elder Fukasaku.
After hearing Jiraiya’s explanation, Elder Fukasaku sighed, and then he pondered over the situation for a while, “Well, we can’t take all of them; that’s for sure.”
Jiraiya asked, “So what to do? And how to choose?”
Elder Fukasaku thought about it, and said, “There has never been a precedent of so many people coming to Mount Myōboku before… even I don’t know what to do.” and added after a pause, “I suppose only Great Elder has a say in the matter.”
“Then please.” Said Jiraiya.contemporary romance
Elder Fukasaku nodded and led the five people to the hall of Gamamaru.
…
Arriving at the great hall of Gamamaru, the five people sat quietly while Elder Fukasaku tried to wake up Elder Gamamaru, “Ojiji-sama… Jiraiya-chan has brought these children from Konoha… what should we do?”
And while Elder Fukasaku explained things to Gamamaru, the four children sat beside Jiraiya with a nervous expression. They swear that this is the first time they have seen such a giant toad in their life. Although old, he still appeared to be a little scary such that Hinata and Kiyomi subconsciously grabbed the sleeves of their elder siblings.
Of course, both Neji and Sasuke were also nervous, but they tried their best to reassure their younger siblings, ‘Don’t worry.’
Jiraiya chuckled at the kid’s behavior and waited for Gamamaru to speak.
After Elder Fukasaku explained everything to Gamamaru, the millennium-old toad with a sleepy expression swept his gaze on the four kids. His gaze passed by Hinata, Neji, and Kiyomi without stopping, however, as soon as he saw Sasuke, Gamamaru’s eyes shot open, his sleepiness disappeared and an incomprehensible expression appeared on his face. Perhaps Gamamaru noted something in Sasuke and muttered, “Indra?”
