Naruto: Starting With Three Tomoe Sharingan, Girlfriend Kushina

"Great Toad Sage-sama, are you really alright? The blood from your eyes keeps flowing, let me stop the bleeding first..."

Fukasaku said as he applied hemostatic medicine and bandages, decisively wrapping up the Great Toad Sage's eyes...

After the situation had completely stabilized, Fukasaku dismissed the other toads and then asked the Great Toad Sage solemnly:

"Great Toad Sage-sama, what exactly happened? Why were your eyes injured? What are the Rinnegan and the Nine Tomoe Sharingan? Who is 'he'? Did you have another prophetic dream?"

Fukasaku voiced all his doubts in one go.

"Yes, it was indeed a prophetic dream. I dreamed of a... god!"

At this moment, the Great Toad Sage seemed to have shed its usual senility, and even its tone of speech was no longer casual.

"A god!!! What kind of god???" Fukasaku's expression changed drastically as he urgently pressed for answers.

A being that could be called a 'god' by an ancient monster like the Great Toad Sage... Fukasaku couldn't even imagine what such a 'god' would look like.

"That was an existence beyond comprehension and definition. He seemed like both a destroyer and a savior. He personally ended the shinobi era, yet also seemed to usher in a brand new era..."

"This dream of mine was very fragmented, but precisely because it was fragmented, I was able to see further into the future..."

"However, it felt as if some mysterious force was interfering with my foresight, preventing me from seeing the true appearance of this god..."

Hearing these words from the Great Toad Sage, Fukasaku instantly felt his scalp tingle. But he also had a very perplexing question:

"Great Toad Sage-sama, didn't you just have a prophetic dream about Jiraiya? You confirmed that he is the future savior's teacher, and we never heard you mention any god before..."

Fukasaku had reason to suspect that the Great Toad Sage's senility was acting up again, or that it had woken up confused... although the bleeding tears were indeed bizarre.

"Your confusion is also my confusion... I myself don't know why I had another prophetic dream."

"I had already seen the general direction of the ninja world's future for the next few decades..."

The Great Toad Sage let out a bitter laugh.

Logically, its prophetic dreams should never go wrong. It couldn't understand what had caused this anomaly, only knowing that the godlike and demonic existence was the source of all these changes!

"So what do we do now? Which of your dreams is the real one? Who is the savior? Is there any connection between that 'god' and Jiraiya? Should I summon Jiraiya here?"

Fukasaku fired off another series of questions.

"I don't know which dream is real either, nor can I figure out who the savior is, or even determine what relationship that person has with Jiraiya..."

"I saw two saviors opposing each other, as if they belonged to different factions..."

The Great Toad Sage patiently explained the dreams it had seen earlier to Fukasaku.

"I also saw the fate of Mount Myōboku..."

"What!!!"

Upon hearing this news, Fukasaku could no longer remain seated.

The Great Toad Sage described two different outcomes from its dreams.

"Submission or destruction, that person is too tyrannical..."

Fukasaku trembled all over, partly out of fear and partly from anger.

"Since you said the dreams represent the future, can I assume that both dreams could come true?"

"Since the existence from the second dream covets our Mount Myōboku, why don't we vigorously promote the development of the first dream, striving to make that blond, blue-eyed boy the savior of the ninja world..."

Fukasaku proposed this idea.

The Great Toad Sage fell silent upon hearing this, pondering the feasibility of the suggestion.

In the end, it shook its head heavily and uttered words that sent chills down Fukasaku's spine:

"A god is a god precisely because they are irresistible and undefeatable. If Mount Myōboku could interfere with him, then he wouldn't deserve to be the ultimate 'god'..."

"It's possible that the very decision you're making now will lead to the first outcome of the second dream..."

The outcome the Great Toad Sage referred to here was the annihilation of the toads of Mount Myōboku.

"Ah! I... I didn't... Will it really turn out like that? Then what should we do!!!"

Fukasaku was so frightened that he became incoherent.

A single thought or decision of his could determine the life or death of the toads of Mount Myōboku. At this point, he didn't dare to voice his opinions anymore!

The immense psychological pressure caused him to break out in cold sweat. With his temperament, experience, and abilities, he was ill-equipped to face such a situation. The only one he could rely on now was the ancient toad sage before him!

The Great Toad Sage, having lived for over a thousand years, had witnessed countless life-and-death struggles and storms. It could surely lead the toads out of this predicament and guide them toward the future.

Fukasaku thought these things to himself, but the Great Toad Sage's next words shook his faith to the core, sending his unease and fear to new heights:

"The future can no longer be foreseen..."

The Great Toad Sage let out a bitter laugh, a single sentence carrying two meanings.

The first was that the future had too many variables, and neither dream could be confirmed, so it didn't dare to make any hasty judgments.

The second was its own condition. Its eyes were plunged into absolute darkness, and it even faintly felt that its foresight ability had been 'erased' by that person's gaze along with its vision!

The two toads, one large and one small, sat in silence in the hall for a long time.

The Great Toad Sage reached out and touched the residual blood that had flowed from its eyes earlier.

"Great Toad Sage-sama, what are you trying to do..." Seeing the Great Toad Sage's strange actions, Fukasaku couldn't help but ask.

The Great Toad Sage didn't answer his question. Instead, it collected the residual blood stains and carefully began painting on its own belly.

Soon, as it continued to 'smear,' an extremely bizarre crimson eye took shape.

"What is this? An eye???" Fukasaku exclaimed in shock.

What was painted on the Great Toad Sage's belly was a swirling, sinister eye. Fukasaku's first impression of this eye was... sinister! The pattern of the Mangekyō Sharingan differed from the eye the old toad had drawn. The image is for reference only! He thought this might be the eye of some kind of monster or evil spirit.

"It is an eye... but to be precise, it should be a... Mangekyō Sharingan!"

With its powerful spiritual perception, even though it was now blind, it could still accurately reproduce the Mangekyō Sharingan from memory.

"It is the 'god's' initial eye. What thoughts and feelings do you have when you look at this eye now?" the Great Toad Sage asked softly.

"Feelings? All I can say is that I feel uncomfortable... Forgive my bluntness, but this Mangekyō Sharingan looks downright evil. The owner of this eye... are you sure he's a god? Not a demon?"

This eye, drawn in blood, was clearly an eye of ill omen. It was hard to imagine this being the eye of a 'savior'...

Also, what exactly did the Great Toad Sage mean by 'initial eye'? Could the savior's eyes have other forms?

"Your feelings align with what I felt in my dream. This deep, swirling eye, when gazed upon, feels as if even one's spirit would be devoured by it..."

"It will bring terrible disaster and slaughter to the ninja world. As you guessed, this is purely an eye of ill omen."

"In the future, if you meet the owner of this eye, you must unconditionally support and befriend them. Never make an enemy of them!"
