—Venerable Elder, Venerable Elder, good news, wonderful news!
— Kwa!
In the depths of Mount Myoboku, in a temple, a messenger toad jumped in with loud croaking and excited cries, addressing the increasingly decrepit and tired Great Sage Toad.
— What... what happened? What's the good news? And who are you? And I... who am I?
The Great Sage Toad opened his bleary eyes and looked at the toad, confused.
"Kwa, Venerable Elder, I am Kousuke the toad!" You're really losing your mind more and more!
Toad Kousuke looked at the Great Toad Sage with sadness in his eyes. The current concentration of natural energy in the Shinobi world was no longer enough to keep him alive. Previously, the Great Sage Toad had only seemed absent-minded, but in reality, this so-called absent-mindedness was mostly feigned.
Now, his clouding was real. He really got old.
—Oh, right, Kousuke. So what's the good news? Where are Fukasaku and Shima? Why aren't there any?
The Great Toad-Sage froze for a moment while his inhibited brain processed the information. He looked around and asked a question in disbelief.
"Oh, Venerable Elder, the two sages have also grown old, it's already hard for them to move around! Kousuke replied with a sigh.
The Great Toad-Sage became like that...
"Let me tell you the good news, Venerable Elder. We have found the Child of the prophecy! Uchiha Yue will be destroyed soon!
— Uchiha Yue is finally going to die! The Shinobi world will not be destroyed!
—What?" Have you found the Child from the prophecy?!
As if in a dying flash of clarity, the Great Sage Toad suddenly became animated and stared at the toad in front of him with undisguised delight.
"That's right, Venerable Elder, we have found the Child of the Prophecy! Alas, it's too late. If we had found him earlier, you wouldn't have gotten to this state! Kousuke nodded happily.
—Ha ha ha, it's not too late, it's not too late at all, ha ha ha!
— Even if I die, it doesn't matter! The child from the prophecy has been found, Uchiha Yue will die, and that's great! Then I can die without regrets! Ha ha ha!
"The child of the prophecy has been found, found! Ha ha ha!
The Great Toad-Sage did not care at all about his own quick death. His heart was filled with only one joy.: The child from the prophecy has been found, and he will see the death of Uchiha Yue. The opportunity to witness Yue's death was worth his own life!
Such a monster shouldn't exist in this world. This transcendent, terrifying immortality was something that went beyond common sense. Even Ootsutsuki Kaguya and the Sage of the Six Paths did not have such a monstrous ability to survive.
Even the Divine Tree had a limit, and Ootsutsuki Kaguya could be sealed. But what about Uchiha Yue?
Not only did he possess absolute immortality, but what caused real terror and awe was that it was impossible to seal him.
Only a Child from the prophecy, only a Child from the prophecy could kill Uchiha Yue!
And now it has appeared. How could this not please the Great Toad-Sage?
Soon, the entire Myoboku Mountain was immersed in jubilation. Uchiha Yue was going to die, and everyone was incredibly happy about it.

"Uchiha Yue?" Heh, just a buffoon playing to the public. A pitiful mortal intent on destroying the world? Dreaming is not harmful! The world must be destroyed and recreated by me! What right does some Uchiha Yue have?
On the moon, Ootsutsuki Toneri looked at the planet below, especially at the dark spot on its surface, with undisguised contempt. Anyone who hadn't seen Uchiha Yue's horror firsthand couldn't comprehend the true nature of his power.
Moreover, Toneri was confident that once he awakened a Tenseigan capable of rivaling Rinnegan, he would easily kill Uchiha Yue!
A pathetic pair of Mangekyo Sharingans, and nothing more. No matter how strong they are, to what extent can they reach?
When he awakens Tenseigan, he will show these sinners from the Shinobi world who is the real boss here!
As for the current situation in the Shinobi world, he was going to destroy it himself. For now, let this upstart named Uchiha Yue do the work for him.
—Haha, Hinata, don't worry! When I kill Uchiha Yue and destroy all the sinners of the Shinobi world, we will become the Father and Mother of a new world!
Ootsutsuki Toneri's face expressed complete confidence and invincibility. Unfortunately, since the time hadn't come yet and his body hadn't fully matured, after Hanabi's eye transplant, the power did begin to awaken in him, but very, very slowly.
At the current rate, it would take him several years to fully awaken Tenseigan.
How did he get so much time? We need to speed up, we definitely need to speed up!
The one who will destroy the Shinobi world, open a new era and become a new god, should be him, not some Uchiha Yue!
And Ootsutsuki Toneri immersed himself in thinking about how to speed up Tenseigan's awakening.
"Maybe."..
His gaze fell on the huge Tenseigan next to him.

— What is happening in the Shinobi world? No, something is wrong! It's not like that at all!
In the Pure Lands, the Sage of the Six Paths suddenly awoke from a long sleep. He discovered that the concentration of natural energy in the Shinobi world had dropped to an astonishingly low level, to the point where even entering Sage Mode was almost impossible.
What... what happened?
The Sage of the Six Paths did not know the state of affairs in the Shinobi world very well. He had been dead for a long time and spent most of his time sleeping in the Pure Lands. He only woke up when the Shinobi world was in the greatest danger.
What was considered the greatest danger?
The rebirth of his mother!
Although he and his brother sealed her, but "sealed" does not mean "killed." Any seal can be broken one day.
He was always on the lookout.
As for the affairs of the Shinobi world, he believed in the wisdom of future generations. The dead should rest humbly in the Pure Lands and not interfere in the affairs of the living.
However, if something catastrophic happened in the Shinobi world, for example, a sharp increase in the number of souls in the Pure Lands or, as now, a sudden drop in the concentration of natural energy, this could also wake him up.
He couldn't let the Shinobi world perish. Soon, the Sage of the Six Paths found out what had happened in the world of the living. The story was simple and ridiculously banal: because of the plan of a few fools who defied fate, the one who was supposed to become an ordinary commoner turned into a monster capable of destroying the world.
Unlimited absorption and growth, the ability to absorb all kinds of energy, including kinetic, immortality and eternal life...
