Chapter 598: The Vigilant Mystic Wood Mountain!
Chapter 598: The Vigilant Mystic Wood Mountain!
Mystic Wood Mountain!
The Great Toad Immortal, slumbering in the Temple Pond, suddenly awoke with a start.
But it wasn't a dream; rather, it was a pure sense of unease and worry.
"This is..."
As a skilled prophet, it didn't believe that such a situation would arise without reason, yet it hadn't dreamed of anything, leaving it unable to guess the cause.
However, even without a dream, it wouldn't ignore this feeling.
To be safe, the Great Toad Immortal instructed all the toads in Mystic Wood Mountain to be on high alert and conduct a thorough search of the interior.
Given its status, no toad would dare disobey, so they all began bustling about, preparing to search every inch of Mystic Wood Mountain, not even sparing a foreign insect.
This was undoubtedly a massive undertaking, and Chima couldn't help but complain.
"Old man, you must be dreaming!"
Indeed, even the Great Toad Immortal wasn't spared from Chima's complaints, which were always direct and unfiltered.
"Don't speak nonsense. The old master might have prophesied something!"
Fukaso dared not be as blunt with the Great Toad Immortal as he was with his own wife.
Chima, too, was only speaking her mind, but in practice, she was fully committed to carrying out the order.
However, no matter how hard they searched, they wouldn't find anything on the injured Wen Tai.
One could say that almost every inch of Mystic Wood Mountain had been searched, yet nothing was found.
Chima and Fukaso reported their findings to the Great Toad Immortal.
"How could this be!"
The Great Toad Immortal muttered to itself.
At this moment, it was no longer confused, constantly pondering what might have been overlooked.
"Old master, is something wrong?"
Fukaso asked, observing the unusual behavior of the Great Toad Immortal.
"I feel... a prophecy might be about to unfold!"
The Great Toad Immortal hesitated for a moment before speaking these words.
Even though it hadn't prophesied anything, it didn't mean it had no sense of foreboding.
An invisible threat seemed to be drawing near, preventing it from falling back into slumber.
"What!"
Fukaso was startled.
It was well aware of the prophecy that Mystic Wood Mountain and Konoha would be destroyed, and it had repeatedly urged Jiraiya to investigate.
Unfortunately, they still had no leads, and now the prophecy was about to unfold.
"Old master, should we notify young Jiraiya immediately and ask for his help?"
Chima, at this moment, no longer stubborn, directly suggested seeking external assistance.
If Jiraiya intervened, it would be as if Konoha itself had taken their side.
Unfortunately, Chima didn't know that Jiraiya couldn't leave Konoha at this time, let alone bring in additional help.
With the Great Shinobi War on the brink of eruption, Konoha was struggling to defend itself, let alone spare resources to support Mystic Wood Mountain.
The crucial point was that they wouldn't mobilize their elite forces without any signs of trouble.
How dare you ask for help when you're not even worthy of it! Just like Konoha, which stationed its elite forces in Mystic Wood Mountain before any signs of trouble, the same treatment would be reciprocated.
They were allies, but that didn't mean they would sacrifice themselves for the other's sake.
It could be said that in the midst of Konoha's collapse plan, Tang Ping intentionally prepared a 'surprise gift', not only to weaken Konoha but also to ensure they had no spare capacity to assist Mystic Wood Mountain.
First, cut off potential reinforcements, then launch an attack on Mystic Wood Mountain.
As Mystic Wood Mountain was on high alert, with every leaf and blade of grass seeming like an enemy, but without a single clue, Tang Ping finally led the assault force to a specific location.
"This is the place!"
Tang Ping stood on the deck of the Blazing Sun, gazing at the open space ahead, his expression tense.
If the calculations were off, it would take at least half a month to recalculate.
Delaying for such a long time would exceed Maitreya's capabilities, as she couldn't constantly interfere with their prophecies, meaning there would be no opportunity to attack Mystic Wood Mountain. No wonder he was nervous.
"They're just toads. Even if they escape this time, there are other ways!"
Uchiha Yae's face remained as calm as ever, but her words carried a sense of reassurance.
Even the confident and domineering her occasionally displayed moments of gentleness.
"If we fail, let me use a meteorite to completely destroy this area!"
Hyuga Tsukimi, in the gentlest tone, spoke the cruelest words.
The Reincarnation Eye truly has the power to control meteorites.
If she wishes, she can capture a falling meteor from the sky and directly annihilate this region, completely destroying it.
The Super Reincarnation Eye, like the one possessed by the Otsutsuki clan on the Moon, is what gives them the audacity to monitor the Shinobi World.
Because they can truly 'destroy the world'!
In the original plot, Otsutsuki Shijin intends to destroy the Shinobi World, leaving only the Crown Princess and himself to create a new Shinobi World.
As Hyuga Tsukimi said, I cannot confirm if it can destroy Mystic Wood Mountain, but the Lightning Country is definitely a target. The number of casualties and the extent of destruction are completely unpredictable.
If it's not controlled properly and triggers a chain reaction, it might directly initiate the 'destruction of the world'.
That's why she speaks in the gentlest tone, delivering the cruelest words.
The people around her are terrified by Tsukimi's words because they know she's not one to make empty threats. She's capable of carrying out such actions.
"There's movement!"
The adorable Kougane suddenly speaks up.
Kamui Heart Eye!
Her reconnaissance range is incredibly vast, and she's highly sensitive to various movements, so she detects the changes early.
In comparison, even her mother, Uzumaki Kaizumi, falls far behind her in terms of innate talent.
"Prepare!"
Tang Ping raises his spirits, signaling to all the troops to get ready.
In the distance, on an empty field, which he speculates is the area of the Mystic Wood Mountain entrance, a thick fog suddenly appears.
Summoning Technique!
He immediately uses this technique.
Bang!
A huge Tsukishiro Lizard appears on the metal deck.
Ordinary ships might not be able to support such a massive creature of dozens of meters in size.
But the Blazing Sun, a tens of thousands of tons ground-effect vehicle, easily accommodates it without any pressure.
"Chubyomaru, I need your help!"
Tang Ping signals for Tsukishiro Lizard to scout ahead.
Despite its enormous body, it moves along the 'assassin' route, and its camouflage and infiltration abilities are truly exceptional, making it the best choice for pathfinding.
As long as the other party enters and doesn't actively release the summoning, Tang Ping will know if they are safe or not, and then he'll make a decision.
Even if he guesses that the Mystic Wood Mountain entrance won't be dangerous, it's better to be cautious.
"Yes, sir!"
Chubyomaru's solemn voice echoes, and it disappears from the Blazing Sun.
Such a massive body, yet it vanishes silently, even Tang Ping doesn't notice its departure.
Time passes second by second, and Tang Ping stands with closed eyes. There's complete silence on the deck.
After a few minutes!
"Charge!"
Tang Ping opens his eyes and shouts.
Time is limited. If they don't enter Mystic Wood Mountain within a certain time, the entrance will jump to the next location.
As long as he confirms that Chubyomaru isn't injured or dead, it's enough.
The spy toads and obstacles around the entrance, it can help clear them.
Buzz!
With his command, the Blazing Sun, along with two other ground-effect vehicles, are ready to move.
The anti-gravity barrier activates, and the jet nozzles suddenly burst, disregarding the damage and forcefully starting up, heading towards the foggy area in the distance.
In the sky.
The propellers of thirty Kirov airships start to slowly rotate, causing them to move forward.
From above, it's like three fierce tigers leading a group of hunting falcons, accelerating towards their prey.
Ground-effect vehicles shouldn't be able to take off from land, as they need to accelerate first to utilize the ground-effect principle for flight.
But this is the Shinobi World!
They directly weaken the gravity with the anti-gravity barrier and then take off.
The Blazing Sun, as the leading vessel, 'crashes' into the fog.
Whoosh!
The thick fog blocks their vision, and they can only hear the sound of the air current caused by the high-speed movement.
Soon, Tang Ping's eyes see their destination.
Mystic Wood Mountain, we're here!
