Mount Myōboku.

"Little ones..."

"Beverage!"

"Today, the ancestors are in a good mood, happy-happy..."

"Beverage!"

The Great Toad Sage was in a particularly good mood.

Not long ago, the world was plunged into fear. First came the resurrection of Uchiha Madara. Then came the unsealing of Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, a terrifying event that shook even the oldest of toads.

But in the end, didn't it all come down to the contributions of Hagoromo's brother, Hamura? They had once again sealed her, just as in the past.

It felt like a dream—like time had reversed a thousand years.

"Shima..."

"Fukasaku..."

Feeling cheerful, the Great Toad Sage called out, but no one came.

"Eh?"

"Shima, Fukasaku..."

It called again, a bit louder.

Its temple had once been attacked by Madara's Susanoo, and ever since, it had to rely on Shima first for aid and communication. But with the recent appearance of the Sage of Six Paths, the younger toads were dismissed to prevent disturbance. Only Shima and Fukasaku remained.

Now that everything had finally ended, it was a time for celebration.

But Shima and Fukasaku were nowhere to be seen.

Just then...

A light pat echoed through the wooden floor as the Great Toad Sage frowned. The door creaked open. Shima and Fukasaku leaped in.

The Great Toad Sage looked over expectantly.

"Shen Zuo, the ancestor asked you to bring wine..."

"Do you have any idea what Mount Myōboku just endured?"

"If it weren't for the ancestors, this peaceful life we know would have vanished..."

The Great Toad Sage's spirits were high, its body wide and heart open.

However...

"It's good to have a drink." A calm voice interrupted.

The Great Toad Sage blinked.

It didn't recognize the voice.

Shima opened the door wider, revealing a figure standing behind her.

Light streamed onto the stranger's face.

Handsome.

"Kitahara Hitoshi!"

The Great Toad Sage was stunned.

Then, recognition dawned.

"You've come for the ninja rabbit..."

"A shame. The ninja rabbit has already been sealed."

"You should know your ninja rabbit is Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, the mother of the Sage of Six Paths."

"I know you've suffered loss, but the one who sealed her was the Sage of Six Paths himself. And now he's vanished."

"If you want answers, you'll have to find him."

"Mount Myōboku has done nothing wrong."

"And Jiraiya was the teacher of your teacher, Kakashi..."

The Great Toad Sage assumed Kitahara Hitoshi had come to settle a score over the loss of his ninja rabbit.

It was afraid Kaguya might show up again. If it were only Kitahara Hitoshi, then he was still just a junior.

"..."

But Fukasaku sighed heavily as the Great Toad Sage continued.

"..."

The Great Toad Sage looked at Fukasaku in confusion. Something about his reaction felt off.

And now...

"Ancestor..."

"You seem to have misunderstood," Fukasaku said quickly. Shima beside him let out a deep sigh as well.

"Look closely at Kitahara Hitoshi's current state," Fukasaku advised.

"His state?"

The Great Toad Sage squinted, then activated its Telescope Technique.

"Huh?"

"Oh..."

"Byakugan!"

"The Hyuga clan..."

The moment it saw the white eyes, its gaze sharpened. Kitahara Hitoshi's pupils had changed—not the golden glow he once had, but white, clear and powerful.

Not ordinary Byakugan.

Something stirred in the Great Toad Sage's mind.

A sudden spark of clarity. A burst of ancient wisdom ignited.

Its thoughts moved slowly these days—age had dulled its mind. But in this moment, something deeper stirred.

Was it survival instinct?

A sharp insight suddenly emerged.

It chuckled bitterly.

The seal on Ōtsutsuki Kaguya had been undone recently, and even then, it didn't experience such clarity. So why now?

Was the current threat even greater?

Did it sense its own life was truly in danger?

"White eyes, of the Hyuga..."

"If not Hyuga, then..."

"...Ōtsutsuki."

It laughed.

But its laughter quickly turned into a curse.

"So... those are Kaguya's Byakugan..."

"Kaguya may have been sealed, but her ocular power..."

"...was inherited by Kitahara Hitoshi?"

"...!"

The Great Toad Sage stopped.

Fukasaku smacked his face with his toad claw.

"To be accurate, it's a power I borrowed," Kitahara Hitoshi said. "But it may now surpass even her."

"Something so simple—and yet you didn't see it."

"You really overestimated yourself."

"I never imagined that Toadmaru, the one who tricked the Sage of Six Paths and his brother into sealing their own mother, would turn out to be so foolish."

"Something this obvious, and you didn't even notice."

"Why do you think the Sage of Six Paths won?"

As he spoke, purple patterns appeared in Kitahara Hitoshi's eyes.

The Rinnegan.

The earth beneath Mount Myōboku began to crack and shatter.

"Liar!"

The Great Toad Sage found itself being drawn into a black, compressed sphere of chakra.

It reflexively twisted its body in panic.

Even though it was a summoning beast that had lived for over a thousand years, even it had limits.

And at that moment, it realized—

This was far more dangerous than the resurrection of Kaguya.

This was something far worse.

But the Great Toad Sage doesn't.

Its body was actually sucked in directly.

Ton ton ton!

Mud began drowning its body.

Liar!

Liar!

Liar!

Could it be that…

Could it be that Yu Yi missed?

Although it shouted those words, it was very clear—this was Yui's failure, or… the one who was sealed wasn't Kaguya, but Yui!

And its eagle eyes observed only that it was submerged by Planetary Devastation, yet both Shima Toad and Fukasaku Toad remained in place.

You two...

Do you want to betray me too? The Great Toad Sage couldn't help but feel sad.

Shima Toad's emotions surged at once but were restrained by Fukasaku Toad's claws.

Fukasaku Toad shook his head.

Ancestor, you have lived for a thousand years, but…

The toads of Mount Myōboku are still young.

So…

Terribly sorry.

Fukasaku Toad said this as its claws gripped Shima Toad tightly. Shima Toad wanted to speak but… finally fell silent.

The Great Toad Sage.

The Great Toad Sage.

The Great Toad Sage understood—the Sage of Six Paths was finished.

Sage of Six Paths is done.

But.

Why…

Why should I be sealed…? the Great Toad Sage cried out.

Kitahara Hitoshi answered without expression.

Of course, I think the Sage of Six Paths is the ancestor of the ninja world, but it's too pitiful for him to be sealed alone.

So…

I'm sending you to accompany him.

Aren't you his friend?

Then isn't it reasonable to go with a friend?

Or… did you never consider him a friend? Kitahara Hitoshi asked.

This… Toad Maru was stunned.

Because whether it denied or didn't deny—it was bad either way.

This question froze it completely.

And during that pause, the black mud swallowed its head entirely, and the massive Planetary Devastation was hoisted into the air.

Chi Ma Toad.

Deep Toad.

Deep Toad.

The two toads stared in shock as their ancestor was sealed, then fell silent.

But they... couldn't do anything.

Solved—a trouble, Kitahara Hitoshi said.

Then he looked at the two toads. The next matter—do you know how to handle it?

Well… Shima Toad hadn't yet recovered from witnessing its ancestor's sealing.

Fukasaku Toad nodded immediately. Understood.

Yeah. Kitahara Hitoshi nodded and left Mount Myōboku.

Before Uchiha Madara arrived, all the toads had been tense and on high alert.

After the Sage of Six Paths visited, the Great Toad Sage avoided all the toads, leaving only Fukasaku and Shima Toads.

But now…

Even though the toads on standby had been ordered to keep their distance, they still saw the enormous Planetary Devastation ascend.

Then drift toward the house where the Great Toad Sage once resided.

This…

Seeing that the residence was now vacant, Shima Toad hurriedly pulled her husband aside.

Well, how are we supposed to handle the aftermath?

Ma…

The old ancestor now…

The ancestor cannot survive, Fukasaku Toad said. He has lived for a thousand years. No one knows how much longer he would have lasted. This ending may be the best possible.

He once said the ninja world could attain peace because he made the Sage of Six Paths brothers seal Kaguya.

But the situation now…

Kaguya is not sealed. Instead, it's the Sage of Six Paths who is sealed.

Times have changed.

And we of Mount Myōboku…

The only way to survive is to turn to Kitahara Hitoshi.

There's nothing we can do, Toad sighed.

This saddened Shima Toad as well.

But their power simply wasn't enough. Strong against normal ninjas, yes—but weak compared to Uchiha Madara and Kitahara Hitoshi.

So forget about resistance. Survival is the only option.

Then now the children are here…

What do we say?

If they learn their ancestor was sealed… some of them may recklessly confront Kitahara Hitoshi and die.

Shima Toad grew anxious.

The oldest toad in Mount Myōboku was the Great Toad Sage, and his prestige was unmatched.

Then came them, and then Deep Toad.

And if the children learned of the sealing, emotions would explode.

Even if the others weren't their offspring, they were still juniors. Seeing so many younger toads, and fearing their end as well… it became anxious instantly.

It's very simple.

Tell them Fukasaku was sealed, Fukasaku Toad said.

…??? Shima Toad looked puzzled.

Sorry, child. From today onward, Mount Myōboku has no more toads.

Only Toad Pills and the Great Toad Sage, Fukasaku said.

Wait a minute! Could it be that… Shima Toad quickly turned to her husband.

And saw—Fukasaku Toad's palms pressed together.

Boom.

Fukasaku Toad used Transformation Technique to become the Great Toad Sage.

…

It coughed twice.

For the stability of Mount Myōboku, I must live as the Great Toad Sage.

As long as the children see that the Great Toad Sage is fine—won't everything be okay? Fukasaku said.

…

…

Father of our child… Shima Toad's tears began to fall.

She already knew how tormented Fukasaku Toad had been after being brainwashed by Kitahara Hitoshi.

He did all this—for everyone's survival in Mount Myōboku.

This… is probably the karmic debt owed to Kaguya, Fukasaku Toad said.

Now… let me repay it.

Then…

It looked toward the door.

Toads, led by Toad Wentai and Toad Jian, approached to inquire about what had happened.

They were told that the Sage of Six Paths had just appeared, and Planetary Devastation would be taken to deep space.

The story was that the Sage of Six Paths felt his mother was too lonely, so he wished to send someone to accompany her on the moon.

And thus, the choice fell upon Deep Toad.

This kind of explanation… while difficult for toads to believe—

Because it involved the Sage of Six Paths and not the Great Toad Sage—

It was barely acceptable.

So the toads did not learn the truth. They did not confront Kitahara Hitoshi. They were not punished. Nor sealed.

This… was the best possible ending.

Quietly watching her husband's actions, Shima Toad finally understood the result of their confrontation with Ōtsutsuki.

Completely… futile.

The Sage of Six Paths brothers, who once fooled the Great Toad Sage, had indeed lived blessed lives.

And in that moment—

Two enormous spheres floated up, one after another.

Eventually, they drifted beyond the ninja world, remaining in lunar orbit.

Even during the day, people could faintly see something unusual.

Three large moons appeared beside the real moon.

As though… three moons now orbited the world.

And regarding those three moons—

Toad Maru…

Is that you?

I sense your chakra.

The Sage of Six Paths was sealed.

But the seal wasn't absolute.

Great Toad Sage…

Great Toad Sage.

I'm here to accompany you, my friend.

The Great Toad Sage swallowed twice, then gave a barely acceptable reply.

…

Hahaha…

As expected of my friend, the Sage of Six Paths said with a touch of relief amid sorrow.

My children… they were all unfilial.

So…

I'm very moved, the Sage of Six Paths said.

Great Toad Sage.

Great Toad Sage.

Could it say it was forced?

Who would willingly become Planetary Devastation?

But… the Sage of Six Paths sighed.

I finally understand how my mother felt.
