# Chapter 1016: Mount Myōboku Nearly Destroyed!
How the army unit would retreat next, and how the Ninja World Allied Forces would return to their respective ninja villages.
As well as the subsequent order restoration, affiliation talks, ninja school establishment, and numerous other complex matters, were no longer things Lord Imu needed to concern himself with.
Lord Imu only needed to know the result: that the Ninja World had been fully conquered by the World Government.
And next, he would excavate the last remaining value from this world.
Did they think they would be fine just by watching from the sidelines?
Naive!
It seemed everyone had forgotten them, but Lord Imu, as a transmigrator, would not.
Mount Myōboku.
A small world attached to the Ninja World, which could also be called a subspace.
Although the sky here was primarily blue, it was also distinctly greenish-yellow.
The floating cloud masses, while appearing normally white, carried a hint of pink.
The river water flowing on the ground was yellow.
Along the banks grew many colorful mushrooms taller and thicker than trees, as well as giant insects that occasionally darted out and appeared.
In the distance were towering mountain peaks that reached straight into the sky, stretching in continuous ranges.
The entire world looked full of fantasy, like a fairy tale wonderland often described in stories.
Yet, it was this quiet, peaceful atmosphere.
It was broken by a yellowish-green air door silently opening in the air.
From within, a Giant Warrior, over twenty meters tall, clad in Golden Blood-Patterned Armor, with a Golden Greatsword strapped to his right hip and a Golden Round Shield hanging from his left arm, flew out aggressively. The white cloak behind him flapped loudly in the gale.
"Be careful on your way, Big Brother Dorry. I'm taking Big Brother Brogy and Kashi to Ryūchi Cave and Shikkotsu Forest. I'll be back to pick you up in two hours at the latest!"
At this moment, a deep, buzzing voice came from the green space.
【Boom!!!】
Just as his voice fell.
The golden giant, who had flown to the high altitude above Mount Myōboku, suddenly stomped his right foot downwards.
An air blast powerful enough to shake an ordinary person to death appeared, and the excessively loud sound instantly resounded throughout the entire area.
It even caused the forest below to sway violently in the gale, and countless startled giant insects frantically fled into the distance.
However, Dorry didn't care at all.
While continuing to use the astonishingly powerful 'Moonwalk', he turned his head and waved to the other golden giant in the green space.
"Got it, see you then!"
With that, Dorry began to move his massive, heavy body, striding towards the direction with the most life aura.
Because 'Moonwalk' strictly speaking isn't flying, but 'air walking'—it's just that the foot isn't stepping on the ground, but on air.
It was just that the commotion caused by the Giant Tribe using 'Moonwalk' was truly astonishing.
If the environment were a human city, just a few steps would be enough to cause terrible destruction and casualties.
Naturally, it quickly attracted the obstruction and encirclement of many young, able-bodied toads from the surroundings.
These toads, holding various weapons, varied in size, but the smallest were over ten meters tall, with most generally around fifteen meters.
The tallest were estimated to be close to twenty meters.
Because they were combat-type toads, they didn't need to use ninjutsu to specifically shrink themselves.
However, these toads were seeing humans close to their body size for the first time.
Therefore, their gaze when looking at Dorry was filled with intense curiosity.
"Outsider, stop immediately! Otherwise, we will take action!"
The largest toad among the many, with sky-blue skin and holding a spear, pointed the spearhead at Dorry in the air and issued a loud warning with a serious expression.
Dorry above didn't mind after hearing this. He lowered his gaze from behind his golden helmet and turned his head to look at the other party, asking in a deep voice, "Are you a Higher-Up here?"
"That's right, this old man is Toad Stone!"
Toad Stone admitted his identity, and then continued to question, "Who are you, how did you enter Mount Myōboku, and what is your purpose!"
Dorry immediately replied, "I am the 'Thunder Giant' of the 'Giant God Soldier' under Lord Imu. I have come by Imperial Will to convey a World Government Order to Gamamaru of Mount Myōboku. Since you are a Higher-Up here, lead the way!"
"What?"
Toad Stone was stunned for a moment.
"Gamamaru... isn't that the Sage's name..."
Toad Stone muttered in a low voice, then became furious, raising his head and roaring, "Bold! Presumptuous! How dare you call our Great Toad Sage by his name!"
Clearly, this was a hot-tempered toad, and very impulsive. It seemed he cared more about Dorry's disrespect towards Gamamaru than the subsequent content.
The surrounding toads also glared angrily at Dorry, their weapons itching to act.
"I will say it again, I come by Lord Imu's Imperial Will. No matter how noble your Great Toad Sage is, he must remain humble. Calling him by name is not an insult; it is a normal and proper form of address."
Dorry said indifferently.
However, with his helmet mask pulled down, none of the toads could see his expression.
"Imu... Lord Imu again..."
Toad Stone became even angrier upon hearing this condescending, arrogant attitude.
But just as he was about to curse and launch a fierce offensive, a sharp voice suddenly came from behind him, forcefully interrupting the words he was about to say.
"Shut up!!!"
"Uh..."
Toad Stone turned his head back in confusion, hearing this voice that was incredibly familiar yet somewhat strange. The other toads did the same.
However, because of this, they didn't notice that streaks of blue electric flash had just flickered on the golden giant above their heads.
If Toad Stone had fully spoken his words just now.
Dorry would have already activated the ability of the Logia Plasma Fruit...
As a 'Giant God Soldier', he must uphold Lord Imu's reputation outside. Any insult towards him must be washed away with the opponent's blood and life!
One person insults, one person dies. A hundred people insult, a hundred people perish.
If the nature is too malicious, and the number of people insulting is too large, the 'Giant God Soldier' has the right to carry out a city massacre or national destruction, executing first and reporting later!
Fortunately, none of this happened.
Dorry withdrew the electric flash he had released from his body and silently watched the interaction between the toads below.
"Elder Fukasaku? Elder Shima?"
Toad Stone looked in surprise at the two small green-skinned toads brought by Gamabunta.
"You nearly brought about the total destruction of Mount Myōboku!"
Elder Fukasaku said with lingering fear, standing on top of Gamabunta's head.
Elder Shima, his old partner beside him, nodded repeatedly while looking at Dorry in the air:
"Indeed, it was just a hair's breadth away. Fortunately, the Great Toad Sage seems to have seen the future again and sent us here in time to stop you!"
As he spoke, he subconsciously wiped away the cold sweat that had seeped from his forehead.
The future the Great Toad Sage had told them about was truly terrifying.
He said that nearly eighty percent of the toads would die under divine punishment-like lightning, and Mount Myōboku would turn into scorched earth.
And this future was caused by just one sentence cursed by Toad Stone...
Now it was fine.
According to the Great Toad Sage, if they could prevent this future from happening, then Mount Myōboku would develop towards a beautiful future.
Although he couldn't see too many details because it was a dream, he had been pondering these two extremely different future dreams for some time.
Only recently did he guess that they were two branching future timelines.
To be honest, this situation was very rare, arguably the first time he had encountered it.
So the Great Toad Sage called it: The Mercy of the Will of the Ninja World towards Mount Myōboku.
However, he also discovered that ever since the World Government appeared, his future dreams had been constantly changing, eventually becoming completely opposite to the previous dream images.
This showed how immense the World Government's influence was; the fate of the entire Ninja World had been overturned and replayed!
"Emissary from the World Government, the Great Toad Sage invites you for a meeting and expresses great willingness to listen to Lord Imu's Imperial Will..."
Elder Fukasaku said respectfully to Dorry, and Elder Shima beside him also bowed his head.
"Good!"
Dorry nodded.
Then, he stopped using 'Moonwalk' and let his body fall heavily.
【Bang!!!】
In an instant, large areas of the ground cracked, and smoke and dust billowed upwards, only to be dispersed by the gale Dorry casually waved out.
"Lead the way!"
