"Jiraiya, good, you brought the prophecized man. I am Gamabunta, the chief toad of Mount Myoboku. It is a pleasure to meet you, the sage of beasts." Gamabunta talked in his hoarse voice.
"What prophecy are you talking about?" Alexander confusedly asked. Jiraiya was also as much interested in knowing this.
"Great toad sage made a prophecy about you a while ago. He's never wrong. He said you'd be coming here soon." Gamabunta explained to them.
"Then it feels more like a fact than a prophecy if they are so correct," Douglas interjected.
Gamabunta nodded his head, "Yes, you can say that too. His prophecy has never been wrong. Now, if you will follow me."
Gamabunta brought them to a building. In front of it, two small toads were standing. Though the two looked old.
Once Alexander was near them they lightly bowed, "Welcome to Mount Myoboku, Sage of beasts. I am Fukasaku, the head toad of this place. Come, my wife has set up a nice feast for us."
*UWAAA*
Alexander noticed Jiraiya making ugly faces like he was going to vomit any moment. He didn't understand the reason behind him and followed him inside his house.
They were soon brought in front of a long table with various baskets placed on it. In each basket, different kinds of insects could be seen. From caterpillars, beetles to earthworms.
~Now I understand.~ He just remembered Fukasaku was a toad so his diet would also be like a toad.
Fukasaku quickly took his seat, "Come, eat with us."
All the tailed beasts sat on their seats and started eating. To them, eating insects was not a big deal as they had eaten them before. But for Alexander, Hats, Berry, and Douglas, it was not a happy sight.
"Haha, yeah, what a feast. But we are strict vegetarians. I will make food for myself." He took out many tacos from his always ready kitchen in the pocket dimension.
Chomei, who was chomping on some insects, looked at him, "But G-CHAN! You just ate..."
Before he could complete the sentence, Douglas grabbed his mouth and stopped him from speaking further.
"Haha, Chomei, it is bad to talk while eating," Douglas said wryly and said something in Chomei's ear.
No one doubted them and they were able to dodge the bullet and eat the meal. During the meeting, the wife of Fukasaku tried many times to make them eat the insects. Saying it was her specialty.
"So, can we go and meet this great toad sage?" He asked.
"Yes, we can. But I don't know if he will be waking up. He is too old now." Fukasaku told him.
"Just take me to him. I'll see what I can do." He insisted.
Fukasaku nodded and asked him to follow. Jiraiya and Douglas followed him from behind.
"Okay, little ones. You stay here and have fun. I'll be back in a while."
...
"Wait, who is this Kaguya? What is this whole reincarnation thing?" Jiraiya asked.
Gamamaru looked at Jiraiya like he just noticed him. "Ah, you. I remember your prophecy. But it will be only half valid now."
Jiraiya was concentrating on his words now, "Which part? That I will become a pervert never seen in the world before?"
"No, you will still be the greatest pervert in the world, I was talking about you teaching the child of prophecy who will unite the world. You will still be teaching him but not as a child of prophecy anymore. Just as a grandpa figure." Gamamaru told him.
"Why? The world doesn't need to be united now?" Jiraiya asked.
"No, it will be united much earlier now. Because of the sage o... Alex." Gamamaru replied.
*Cough*
Alexander interrupted their talk, "So, Gamamaru, did you see the fight between Kaguya and her sons personally?"
"Yes, I did. It was terrifying. I thought the world would be destroyed that day but somehow we are still alive. I hope that Kaguya rots inside the moon forever"
Alexander chuckled, "Well, now that I know most of the history, tell me how do I learn this senjutsu?"
"It is very simple, you just channel the natural energy through your body," Gamamaru said.
"But I am already doing that." Alexander retorted.
"Then you have already mastered the Natural energy, congratulations."
*Sigh*
Alexander looked at Jiraiya, "Well, what do you want to learn? I don't break promises."
"What can you teach me?" Jiraiya asked excitedly.
"Hmmm... kid, do you ever wish you could fly?"
Alexander again used his ability to fly as leverage and got off easy. Seriously, flying was an ability that gets people excited by just having the prospect of someday learning and using it.
