Chapter 563: Once compatriots, now monsters
"Jiraiya, what is going on? Where did that ball of light come from? Why did it turn the toad into a monster?!"

Fukasaku and Shima asked after jumping onto Jiraiya's shoulders.

Gamabuntaye looked at Jiraiya.

"To be precise, any living creature will be turned into a monster by it. As for how it came from, it was created by a pendant. Only by finding the pendant can this ball of light disappear."

Jiraiya said as he looked around to find the pendant.

"Pendant, this place is so big, how can I find it?"

Shima said while looking around.

"I've lived for so long and have never heard of such a thing. Even the ninja tools of the Six Paths Sage can't do it. What on earth is this thing!?"

Fukasaku looked at Jiraiya and asked.

"This matter is very complicated to explain. All I can say now is that it is not from our world. I will tell you the details after I find it."

Jiraiya also wanted to explain, but things like the containment objects couldn't be explained in a short time, so he could only talk about it later.

"Ahhhhh!!"

At this moment, Toad Guang, whose face was covered with rotten flesh and whose facial features could not be seen before and had goat horns on his head, suddenly stood up again and howled to the sky.

Then I saw six sharp and long limbs like legs growing out of its back.

The six legs fell to the side one after another, poking the ground to lift the toad upright and let it float off the ground.

It looks like a big spider.

Then the six spider legs bent and exerted force, and its body rushed towards Gamabunta like a cannonball.

He clenched the two swords in his festering hands and chopped them down when he got close to Wen Tai!
Upon seeing this, Bunta quickly drew the katana from his waist and blocked Gamahiro's double sword attacks.

Feeling this terrifying force and Toad Hiro's ruthless killing intent.

Gamabunta's face was twitching constantly.

"Toad Hiro! Do you really want to kill me?!"

Bunta yelled angrily.

But in response, Gamahiro's six newly grown spider legs were poking at Gamabunta from different directions.

Seeing this, Gamabunta immediately stepped back and dodged.

Gamahiro immediately chased after him, constantly swinging his two swords to attack Bunta.

Wen Tai could only keep backing away and raising his sword to block.

At this moment, other toads that had turned into flesh and blood beasts rushed towards Gamabunta from other directions and attacked.

"Aha!"

Upon seeing this, Bunta immediately spun around with all his might, swinging his katana and creating a powerful tornado that blew away the approaching toad, and at the same time he turned around and punched the toad's face, which was covered in rotten flesh, sending it flying.

However, when Gamabunta flew out, its six spider legs instantly poked the ground, allowing it to turn over in mid-air, stand up again, and then rush towards Gamabunta again.

"Toad Guang, have you really lost your mind?"

Gamabunta looked at Gamahiro, whose appearance was unrecognizable, his eyes trembling, his tone filled with sadness, and the hand holding the samurai sword was shaking constantly.

Then he looked at the toads around him.

No matter which one it was, they all exuded a strong murderous intent, and their current ugly appearance made it impossible to associate them with their past appearance.

"Hey, are you really not aware of what's going on? Answer me quickly!"

Gamabunta, who was usually calm and composed, couldn't help but sound sad.

It hopes that these toads that have turned into flesh and blood beasts can respond to its words.

Unfortunately, no matter how it shouted, the toad that had turned into a bloody beast could not respond to a single word he said. All it could respond with was an attack full of murderous intent!

This was extremely difficult for Gamabun to accept. He couldn't believe that his brother, who had lived with him day and night, had turned into a terrifying monster that wanted to hurt him. He couldn't help but regret why he didn't tell everyone to leave when he saw the ball of light.

If you think about it carefully, the sudden appearance of something that can heal injuries must be problematic no matter how you look at it.

Why didn't it realize this at the time!

The fact that he was a wise man after the event made Gamabunta feel extremely regretful and painful.

The force and movement of his attacks were weakened, causing him to suffer more injuries from the attacks of the flesh beast.

"Bunta..."

Jiraiya, who was not far away, noticed Gamabunta's situation. He could feel that Gamabunta was in great pain.

"Bunta, I understand how you feel."

Jiraiya thought with a sad face.

He looked at the toads that were besieging him in front of him, and found that some of them were acquaintances of his.

Like the strength of a toad, the health of a toad.

Today, Toad Jian has grown two more legs on his lower body, and looks like a four-legged beast. His entire body is festering, and his facial features are covered in a pile of rotten flesh. Several compound eyes have grown on the surface, making him look extremely disgusting.

A rhinoceros horn grew on his head, and his hands turned into gorilla arms. He tightly grasped the shield and steel fork, and rushed towards Jiraiya with a group of toads that had also turned into monsters.

"Jiraiya, is there really no other way? Can't they change back?"

Fukasaku watched the familiar toad transform into such a terrifying, irrational monster, and anxiously asked Jiraiya, hoping to get some hope.

"I'm sorry, Master Fukasaku. I hope more than anyone else that they can be restored, but the information I have does not mention that they can be restored."

Jiraiya was extremely sad when he said this.

Fukasaku and Shima's heartbeats almost slowed down.

. . . . . .

Naruto and Tsunade saw the situation at Myoboku Mountain through the screen.

"So many toads have turned into monsters. Toad Boss and the Lecherous Immortal must be in great pain."

Naruto said with a bit of sadness, looking at the screen.

"Yes, after all, they are all their comrades-in-arms."

When Tsunade said this, she couldn't help but lower her head and dared not continue reading.

"I'm afraid the only option is to kill them. I don't know if Jiraiya and the others can do it."

When Tsunade said this, she couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

Naruto's body twitched after hearing this, then he lowered his head and shed tears secretly.

"Haha, Jiraiya, what are you going to do now? Can you be cruel enough to kill your former toad companion?"

Orochimaru said, looking at Jiraiya with a sneer.

"If it were me, I would have taken action long ago. You are just too naive, and that's why you lost a lot. Don't let the impact of the situation expand to a larger extent, otherwise it will be very embarrassing, haha."

Orochimaru couldn't help but laugh at the end.

Then his eyes showed a bit of fanaticism.

"But this Lovecraft pendant is really powerful. Even summoned beasts with fairy chakra can be transformed into monsters. It's really interesting."

"If I can get it and combine it with my C virus for research, I'm really looking forward to what will happen."

When Orochimaru said this, he couldn't help but lick his lower lip with a fanatical look on his face.
