Bab 238: Chapter 238: Walking with the Great Katsuyu Sage
"Mm, I understand," Yugito said, hugging Shishou and taking a deep breath near his neck, then smiled at him, "Come back soon."
"There are people here waiting to sleep with you."
Hearing Yugito's words, Mabui and Samui's faces turned red. Embarrassed, they quickly looked away.
Although they had developed some feelings for Shishou over the past month, it was just a fondness, far from wanting to sleep with him.
Besides, not knowing if Shishou had any interest in them, Mabui and Samui didn't dare show any signs of their feelings for him.
If Shishou liked one of them and not the other, or neither of them, it would be incredibly awkward...
Shishou didn't understand the secrets between the three women. He thought Yugito was referring to herself and, lifting her pretty face, said with a smile, "Once I deal with my current tasks, I'll see how to handle you."
"Mwah!"
Shishou kissed Yugito passionately and then disappeared.
Yugito smiled brightly at Shishou's words. After he left, she turned to Mabui and Samui with a frustrated look, "I've given you every opportunity. Why aren't you more proactive?"
Mabui and Samui rolled their eyes simultaneously.
Who was it that didn't leave Shishou's side for a moment this month...
...
Leaving Turtle Island in the Hidden Cloud Village, Shishou didn't go directly to Kirigakure. Instead, he headed to Shikkotsu Forest to walk with the Great Katsuyu Sage.
Although his insect cultivation space could satisfy the living needs of the small Katsuyu, it felt a bit restrictive, and Katsuyu didn't like staying there.
Moreover, Katsuyu mentioned that the natural energy in the environments of the three great sacred places was more abundant, making it better for practicing Sage Mode. So Shishou came here to test it out.
If what Katsuyu said was true, he planned to bring Yugito and the others here to train.
"Ah~ it's so comfortable here," Katsuyu, whose body was as large as a mountain, expressed her joy as soon as Shishou released her from the insect cultivation space.
She was really tired of staying in Shishou's insect cultivation space.
Hearing Katsuyu's soft, gentle sounds of delight, Shishou's mouth twitched with a bold idea.
Then he looked at Katsuyu and said, "Katsuyu, split off a clone with Sage energy."
"Um, a dead one. I want to see if the Phosphorescent Insect can devour it."
Shishou wanted to see if he could gain Sage abilities by having the Phosphorescent Insect devour Katsuyu's clone.
If successful, he wouldn't have to painstakingly practice Sage Mode.
"A dead clone..."
Katsuyu looked at Shishou standing on her with a long silence before speaking in a soft voice, "Do you know how terrifying your request is for me?"
"Watching my clone get devoured bit by bit is terrifying..."
Shishou was taken aback and immediately apologized, "I'm sorry, Katsuyu, I went too far."
He realized that Katsuyu's clones were parts of her body.
Asking her to split off a clone for his insect to devour was no different from asking her to let him eat her alive.
It was like cutting off his own fingers and watching someone else eat them.
It's terrifying for anyone.
If Katsuyu were like the unintelligent Centipede King, he could just devour it.
But Katsuyu was the Great Katsuyu Sage of the ninja world, a terrifying entity at the Six Paths level.
Not some mindless insect.
Shishou then lay down on Katsuyu's soft body and asked, "What do I need to prepare to kill that charlatan Great Toad Sage?"
Since he couldn't take the shortcuts through Shikkotsu Forest and Ryuchi Cave, Shishou turned his attention to Mount Myoboku.
He had already planted Phosphorescent Insects on Fukasaku and Shima, making it easy to find their location.
But the Great Toad Sage's prophecy ability was troublesome.
Hearing that Shishou planned to target the Great Toad Sage, Katsuyu was startled, "The Great Toad Sage is the oldest among us, possessing not only prophecy abilities but also immense power and chakra far surpassing me and the White Snake Sage."
"He is the strongest among the three great sages. If you want to target him, you'd better be fully prepared."
Hearing this, Shishou sighed.
The Great Toad Sage was a terrifying entity not weaker than the Six Paths Sage. He couldn't make a move without awakening the Rinnegan.
Since shortcuts weren't an option, Shishou sat up from Katsuyu's body and began practicing meditation.
According to Katsuyu, his mind was too active. He needed to practice meditation continuously to calm his thoughts and reach a state of selflessness before he could succeed in Sage training.
So, during the month on Turtle Island, besides evolving the insects in his cultivation space, Shishou spent most of his time meditating.
However,
He had too many things he wanted to do, too many distractions, and strong desires.
From promoting fertilizers, awakening the Rinnegan, obtaining the Tenseigan, to capturing Kaguya Otsutsuki, all these thoughts lingered in his mind.
Making it impossible for him to calm down and enter a meditative state.
Moreover, with Yugito, Mabui, and Samui around, his meditation progress this month was exceedingly slow.
Seeing Shishou unable to enter a meditative state, Katsuyu sighed.
Shishou's talent and strength were the highest she had ever seen.
But his desires were also the strongest she had ever seen.
Such a person was actually not suited for learning Sage Mode.
After some time, Katsuyu spoke, "You have too many things you want to do now. I suggest you finish these tasks before starting Sage training."
"Forcing Sage training will waste your time and drain your patience, hindering your future Sage practice."
Hearing this, Shishou opened his eyes and smiled awkwardly.
He agreed with Katsuyu's advice.
Since he couldn't calm his mind for Sage training now, he should focus on other matters.
Thinking of this, Shishou looked at Katsuyu and said, "You stay here. I'll come to get you later."
Then Shishou disappeared, not giving Katsuyu a chance to argue.
"I don't want to stay with you," muttered the Great Katsuyu Sage after Shishou disappeared.
Fire Country, Honoha Castle.
Swoosh!
Shishou's figure appeared directly in Mikoto's bedroom.
