''Woah... That was an amazing experience!'' Naruto exclaimed, it was similar to his teleport but essentially different. He thought that experiencing the Reverse Kuchiyose no Jutsu again would be a rather good option.

Jiraiya smiled evilly: ''Yeah, indeed. I bet you'll love your time here, ah, the food here is just amazing too!''

The Toad that brought them here looked towards Jiraiya before saying: ''I see. I'll tell my mother that you love the food she makes, last time, you had to leave immediately but now, I'm sure you'll need to stay here in order to train these two little demons.''

Jiraiya: '...F*ck'

Seeing his reaction, Naruto couldn't help but wonder what kind of food they ate here. However, after remembering they are all Toads, it's probably insects and the like: ''Hm... I have never tasted Insects, I'll do it later.''

Haku also nodded, the two of them weren't picky with food at all. After all, they had to endure things such as starving, they knew that being picky wouldn't help with them.

'...These two monsters!' Jiraiya thought to himself in an incredulous manner.

Looking towards Jiraiya, Naruto said after pondering for a bit: ''Nee nee, Ero Sennin, is the Pipe Toad living here too? I have to admit, though... This place is very good, compared to all places we've been up to now, this one is very beautiful.''

''Pipe Toad? Ah, you mean my father Gamabunta, little Demon? I'm sure he would be very angry at you if he heard this. He's the Chief Toad of the Mt. Myoboku.'' The Toad said while laughing lightly, he had never seen someone with enough courage to call their father like that.

''Chief Toad, whatever...'' Naruto muttered as Jiraiya's eyebrows twitched. Haku was doing his best not to laugh as he thought: 'Naruto is joking as usual, I see.'

...

''It's you, the sh*tty brat that summoned me? What are you doing here? Don't tell me... That Jiraiya brat brought you here to bother me?!'' Gamabunta exclaimed after seeing Naruto.

''Nah, don't worry 'bout that, Pipe Toad. So you were telling the truth, eh... To think you're the Chief Toad!'' Naruto said while shrugging his shoulders, Gamabunta's mouth twitched slightly.

'Oi... I'm the Chief Toad, can't you give me at least a bit of respect?' The enormous but poor Toad thought to himself. Jiraiya laughed at him from afar before being noticed and quickly calming Gamabunta down.

Looking up towards the enormous Toad, he said: ''Sup, Gamabunta! You see, Akatsuki is onto that brat's tail, quite literally! There is no best place to hide beside the Three Sage Lands, anyway... Is the Great Toad Sage available? I... need to talk with him, rather, the three of us need.''

Before Gamabunta could reply to them, an aged voice came from a seemingly unknown place: ''You can come along with your little disciples, Jiraiya.''

Jiraiya nodded as he and his disciples came, Naruto looked around while thinking about the dense white-colored particles that seemed to welcome him: 'These particles are everywhere and I can see them ever since I 'awakened'. The ones here are much denser and they seem to have some connection to me.'

As they went through Mt. Myoboku, they arrived at a huge lake. In the middle of it stood an elderly Toad with many wrinkles, his size was easily the same as Gamabunta, Naruto noted.

''Yo, Ojiji. Knowing you, it's not a surprise that you already know the reason I brought my disciples here, hm?'' Jiraiya said in his usual easy-going attitude.

Then, he turned towards Naruto and Haku: ''This one is the leader of all Toads, he's the Great Toad Sage but just call him Ojiji. He's called Gamamaru and he has been living even before the Sage of the Six Paths.''

'Damn, he's old!' Naruto thought to himself, Haku sharing similar thoughts to him.

Gamamaru looked over both Naruto and Haku before turning towards Jiraiya: ''I see. You've finally found him, didn't you, Jiraiya-chan?''

Naruto and Haku: '...Jiraiya-chan? Pffft!'

Not giving Jiraiya and chance to retort, Gamamaru turned towards Naruto: ''Come here, child. You have a very special destiny... Don't you, child of the Uzumaki Clan? I'll tell you about it.''

''The Child of Prophecy, a mischievous blue-eyed brat... You're friends with Kurama, aren't you?'' Gamamaru said.

Kurama, that was resting inside Naruto's mindscape, suddenly opened his eyes: 'Kit, you don't need to be wary of him. That old man is literally an old man, he was the one that guided my father, Hagoromo, with Senjutsu to end Otsutsuki Kaguya's plans.'

Nodding, Naruto said: ''Yeah, Kuu-san is like my brother. Say, old Toad, what are those white particles? Kuu-san told me that you're trustworthy so I'm asking this to you. I've heard about Natural Energy from the Ero Sennin and I suspect this is it.''

The old Toad's closed eyes widened slightly: 'He can see Natural Energy itself? How... not even Hagoromo... no, not even Otsutsuki Kaguya while in the Juubi form, who was a being made of Natural Energy itself, could see it!'

However, a smile soon formed in his wrinkled face: ''I see, I see... Boy, your destiny isn't as simple as it seems. To think that you can see Natural Energy itself! Jiraiya-chan, regarding his Senjutsu training... I'll guide him personally, this kind of potential wasn't ever seen, I'm afraid that even our most experienced Toads wouldn't be able to train him properly!''

'He can see Natural Energy?' Jiraiya, someone who is extremely familiar with Senjutsu despite his imperfect Sage Mode, naturally knew how abnormal that is. Even he could barely sense it, not to mention see. One had to know that even so, he still had a rather good talent towards Senjutsu considering not even Orochimaru could attain the so-called Sage Mode.

However, Jiraiya quickly calmed down while feeling happy, his disciple was such a talented person, naturally making him proud. Nodding his head slightly, he said: ''I'll be sure to train both Naruto and Haku properly, they're my disciples, after all. Disciples of the Great Jiraiya-sama!''

Gamamaru, Naruto and Haku: ''...''
