Chapter 334: , the legendary holy land

With the successful execution of the reverse summoning, Mizunuki Ryosuke and Senju Tsunade are summoned to a very magnificent rainforest.

But the two seem to have not reacted yet, still maintaining the previous posture.

Whether it is the brilliant blonde princess or the handsome black-haired young man, they seem to have long been immersed in each other's eyes, which are as vast as the galaxy, and cannot extricate themselves.

"Oh ho?"

"Young people nowadays are really open."

"Really not caring at all about an old person like me who has been single for thousands of years..."

A very gentle female voice rings in the ears of the two; the other party's slightly teasing tone also makes the two suddenly remember their current situation.

The two finally react.

The two's retreat and turn movements are not only done in one go, but the synchronization rate reaches one hundred percent.

Mizunuki Ryosuke endures the throbbing in his heart and the previous embarrassment, forcing himself to think calmly about the current situation.

And on the other side, Tsunade's expression is much more exaggerated than Mizunuki Ryosuke's.

Her originally somewhat pale face is as red as an autumn tomato, and her plump body is still trembling slightly.

Recalling everything that happened before, Tsunade cannot help but cover her flushed face.

"It seems..."

"I won't be able to get married..."

Tsunade murmurs to herself in her heart; the extremely rare shy and cute expression also makes the Katsuyu Sage on the side unable to help but look sideways.

"Oh ho, Little Tsunade is blushing."

The female voice with a teasing tone rings again, making Tsunade's face even more ruddy, and a trace of shyness and annoyance is hidden in her emerald eyes.

"Lady Katsuyu!"

Tsunade pouts; the shyness in her words can be clearly heard even by Ryosuke on the side.

Taking advantage of the time when Katsuyu is teasing Tsunade, Mizunuki Ryosuke looks at everything around him.

In the original work, Mount Myōboku and Ryūchi Cave among the Three Great Holy Lands have been shown to a certain extent.

Especially Mount Myōboku, where the Crown Prince once trained, leaves a deep impression on most people.

Mount Myōboku not only has the Toad Sage who can predict the future but also various kinds of rich toad summoning beasts.

And although Ryūchi Cave does not have much space, according to Yakushi Kabuto's memories, the structure of Ryūchi Cave is similar to Mount Myōboku; besides the White Snake Sage at the top, it also has various snake-type summoning beasts.

In the original work, only Shikkotsu Forest among the Three Great Holy Lands has always worn a mysterious veil.

The reason why the Three Great Holy Lands have the title of "Holy Land" is that the Three Great Holy Lands are the only way for mortals to learn the power of "sages."

That is to say, if you want to learn Sage Mode, you can only learn it through the Three Great Holy Lands.

Because of the different Three Great Holy Lands, the characteristics of the Sage Mode shown by the Three Great Holy Lands are also different.

And where the specific differences are, I am afraid no one can say clearly.

In the original work, those who have learned Sage Mode with a mortal body (Ten-Tails Jinchūriki doesn't count) can be counted on one hand.

They are only: Jiraiya, Uzumaki Naruto, Yakushi Kabuto, and Senju Hashirama.

Besides them, no one else can successfully learn Sage Mode; the difficulty of learning Sage Mode can be imagined.

And among them, Naruto and Jiraiya's Sage Mode comes from Mount Myōboku, Yakushi Kabuto's Sage Mode comes from Ryūchi Cave, and although the original work does not explicitly say where Hashirama's Sage Mode comes from.

But from Tsunade's summoning beast, one can see that Hashirama's Sage Mode source is naturally Shikkotsu Forest.

And according to Mizunuki Ryosuke, Shikkotsu Forest has an essential difference from the other two Great Holy Lands.

That is—the entire Shikkotsu Forest actually only has one summoning beast, and that is the Katsuyu Sage herself!

Relying on her own strength to compete with the power of a race of the other two Great Holy Lands, what level is this?

The Katsuyu Sage can be called the most unfathomable existence in the original work.

Not to mention anything else, but out of this mystery, Ryosuke is full of curiosity about the Katsuyu Sage.

Even Mizunuki Ryosuke cannot judge from the surrounding environment where this is.

For a time, his heart is filled with shock.

In this world, because of war and various factors, the number of humans is actually not large.

Therefore, the Ninja World has large tracts of undeveloped land, and the forests that can be called lush are countless.

But these forests look not worth mentioning at this moment.

A big tree, how high do you think it can grow?

Five meters? Ten meters? Or twenty meters?

Now, if Mizunuki Ryosuke tells you that a tree can grow to a height of one hundred meters, would you believe it?

But the facts are placed in front of Mizunuki Ryosuke, and he cannot help but believe it.

The term "towering tree" can be said to be no exaggeration here.

The unimaginably thick trunks pierce directly into the clouds in violation of common sense; looking up, one cannot see the tops of these trees at all.

And such big trees are not just one, but a whole forest!

Too terrifying; such a scene simply violates common sense.

But thinking that this is Shikkotsu Forest where the Katsuyu Sage lives, Mizunuki Ryosuke chooses to accept it.

Compared to the surrounding environment, the body of the Katsuyu Sage is very insignificant.

In terms of appearance, it is almost no different from the Katsuyu summoned by Tsunade before, just wearing a blue long gown on its fat body.

This also shows that the Katsuyu Sage in front of her is also just a clone.

Perhaps noticing Mizunuki Ryosuke's gaze, the Katsuyu Sage turns her head and looks at Mizunuki Ryosuke, and the two tentacles that function as eyes also sway twice.

"Tsk tsk, amazing, amazing..."

"Except for that kid Hashirama, this is the first time I have seen a human with such talent."

The heartfelt exclamation of the Katsuyu Sage makes Mizunuki Ryosuke slightly shocked.

Facing the unfathomable Katsuyu Sage, even he does not know how to answer for a while.

Seeing the Katsuyu Sage praising Mizunuki Ryosuke, Tsunade restrains her shy and annoyed emotions and looks at the young man beside her with surprised eyes.

"A person like Grandpa..."

Tsunade murmurs to herself in her heart.

Does the Katsuyu Sage's words mean that the young man in front of her has enough talent to be on par with the God of Ninja, Senju Hashirama?

The talent of the God of Ninja! That must be how terrifying!

For a time, the look in Tsunade's eyes looking at Mizunuki Ryosuke undergoes a slight change.

"Sage, you overstate it; what virtue or ability do I have to be on par with Lord Senju Hashirama?"

Mizunuki Ryosuke shakes his head gently, not accepting the Katsuyu Sage's praise.

"Hahaha!!"

"Interesting young man."

But who would have thought that after hearing this, the Katsuyu Sage did not say much, just laughed and then ignored him.

"I will help you treat your injuries first, Little Tsunade; it's the first time I've seen you injured so seriously."

The Katsuyu Sage just blows a breath at Tsunade in front of her; in an instant, the originally fatal injury actually heals at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the healed wound is as smooth as new, as if it had never been injured at all.

"This is..."

"Sage Mode!"

Mizunuki Ryosuke looks at the means displayed by the Katsuyu Sage, and a trace of heat appears in his eyes.
