I would like to announce that I released a new fiction titled "My Life In The Multiverse" check it out and tell me what you think.

**********

Outside the curry of life shop, Three humans and a fox were conversing after having had their fill of some normal tasting curry. Bakorio ended up paying an enormous bill thanks to the amount the glutton fox had eaten…

"So, this mountain is the Katabami gold mine huh?" muttered Bakorio while looking at the mountain that was facing the curry of life shop.

"That's correct, it's one of the biggest gold mines in the land of rivers" replied Jiraiya when he overheard Bakorio and it made a weird glint pass through his eyes 'It seems like I will visit the land of rivers more than I thought in the future…'

"Bakorio, normally you would require a contract with a toad to be able to reverse summon yourself to mount Myoboku, but we are going to use another, way follow me" said Jiraiya before he started walking to an isolated place…

'Summoning contracts huh? I wonder why not many people use them for escaping…' This always perplexed Bakorio as in the anime, many events could have been avoided if the people used the reverse summoning Jutsu…

After Bakorio did some research on the summoning Jutsu, he found that there are two types, the commonly used type is when people make a contract with an individual animal or item, for example, the contract Sasuke had with his hawk or the one the seven ninja swordsmen of the mist have with their swords so that they can summon them at any time.

Bakorio's contract with the Rashomon gates also falls under this category, and unless these things exist in the real world and can contain the person, the reverse summoning Jutsu won't work with them. For example, a weapon that is sealed inside a scroll…

But if that same weapon could contain a person, and it was located somewhere in the real world, the user can hide inside it and will be transported along with the weapon when the summoning is undone, and the same principle applies to animals.

As for the second type of summoning which is much rarer, and that's to make a contract with a location and its species. This is the case with Jiraiya's contract with mount Myoboku. This type of contract is so versatile as it allows the user to summon multiple animals at the same time from the location they made the contract with, and it all depends on the amount of chakra they use…

But not anyone can land their hands on this kind of contract, especially with a sentient being such as the toads of mount Myoboku or the snakes of Ryuchi cave. That's why Bakorio suspected that Jiraiya's family name held a lot of meaning… and it wasn't left unsaid for no reason. Even after searching around, he found nothing about it...

'Could he really be a survivor of the Hagoromo clan?' Thought Bakorio as he followed behind Jiraiya and remembered the history he researched…

During the war-torn era that preceded the creation of the hidden villages, the land of fire witnessed a major alliance at that time, and surprisingly it was between the Uchiha clan and the Hagoromo clan.

The Uchiha clan doesn't really need any introductions for their abilities, but the Hagoromo clan were actually famous for using toad summons to help them in their fights. And this alliance caused many losses to the Senju clan that only stopped when they made an alliance with the Uzumaki clan and evened out the battle again…

However, Bakorio found that the fate of the Hagoromo clan was somehow obscured and he couldn't find more details about them after this, only that in the current time, only Jiraiya had the ability to summon toads, and it wasn't like he grew up without parents so he guessed that some kind of internal fight happened between the Uchiha at that time and the Hagoromo clan which resulted in the latter taking massive losses…

But the Uchiha didn't escape from these losses unscathed and they ended up leading a final charge against the Senju and Uzumaki alliance which they lost in the end, and after some drama, they also joined the alliance that became the village hidden in the leaves… (Although, the Uzumaki clan's base wasn't relocated and they remained in the land of whirlpools to the east of the land of fire…)

As for the survivors of the Hagoromo clan, Bakorio believes that they lost most of their heritage, and fearing that the Uchiha and the Senju might still hold a grudge against them, they decided to not pass down their famous toad summoning Jutsu anymore.

Yet surprisingly, while Hiruzen was teaching Jiraiya about the summoning and reverse summoning Jutsu. He actually never expected that the latter would use it carelessly and because he had no summon contract at the time. When he used the reverse summoning Jutsu he actually ended up in mount Myoboku.

So Bakorio concluded that his bloodline was definitely related to the Hagoromo clan, making him a descendant of the legendary sage who was also related to the toads!

'Who would have thought, this pervert is a descendant of Hagoromo…' thought Bakorio in wonder until Jiraiya suddenly stopped in front of an empty clearing and said "I guess this place would do just fine" then he bit his finger and put his hand on the ground causing many seals to extend from it "Summoning Jutsu!"

A huge puff of smoke exploded in front of their faces and after it vanished. A dull, rusty red enormous frog with brighter red markings around his chest, eyes, and lips and a scar over his left eye appeared, and it was wearing a large blue vest that has the kanji (Ebi -Toad) on the back and was carrying a massive dosu blade at his hip and a kiseru pipe which he often smokes.

Bakorio immediately recognized that this was Jiraiya's famous summon, Gamabunta, so it come as no surprise to him when this ill-tempered toad who's the chief toad of mount Myoboku said in annoyance to Jiraiya "Jiraiya, what did you summon me here for?"

"Yo old friend, I need you to do me a favor and take us back to mount Myoboku" said Jiraiya before his face turned serious and said "I found the boy from the prophecy"

"huh?" Gamabunta's face suddenly froze as he shot Mukai and Bakorio a look before he made eye contact with the fox that was sitting on Bakorio's shoulder and he felt his heart shake when he sensed the immense chakra it contained!

"Jiraiya, what's that dangerous fox doing here!" yelled Gamabunta as he quickly leaped back and started drawing his blade

"Don't worry, he was set free for a reason…" Said Jiraiya who understood Kurama's situation after Bakorio told him how he unsealed him from Naruto and Fugaku and Hiruzen approved of it. so, he decided to trust in their judgment.

"Grrrr, what a cowardly frog" said Kurama with a smug smile on his face which prompted Mukai to shoot him a weird look, but then he noticed Bakorio signaling him…

'Why do you have to drag me into this mess…' Thought Mukai helplessly before he looked at Gamabunta with a contemptuous look and said "Tch, indeed, I never expected these animals to be so cowardly…"

"Bastards what did you say!" Provoked, Gamabunta swung his sword at Mukai with a quick swing "Stop Gam-" Jiraiya tried to stop him but he was simply too late and the sword soon connected with the ground creating a huge fissure as everyone jumped away from it and Gamabunta quickly retracted it ready for another swing…

However, Mukai's annoying voice soon reached its ears again "See, not to mention that fox, you can't even handle me…"

Gamabunta quickly turned around and looked at his sword and found Mukai was squatting down on it and looking at him smugly…

"You…" Gamabunta was about to unleash a fireball at him but Jiraiya finally started to get angry and yelled at him "Bunta stop right now!"

Seeing the serious look on Jiraiya's face, Gamabunta struggled as he really wanted to smack the smug idiot standing on his sword but in the end, he decided to give Jiraiya some face

"Jiraiya, these guys are dangerous, I can't let you take them to mount Myoboku" said Gamabunta as he started to swing his sword around to shake Mukai out from it but he kept sticking to it like glue which annoyed the frog to no end

'Whan an amazing mastery of his body and chakra control, that guy is a Taijutsu master!' thought Jiraiya while looking at Mukai who was doing something miraculous so effortlessly before he calmly jumped and landed beside Bakorio who was watching the fun from a hill nearby…

"Don't worry I will take responsibility for it" Said Jiraiya which finally made Gamabunta give up as he said

"Fine suit yourself" His friendship with Jiraiya was long enough to know that he was smart enough to not bring harm easily to his friends so he decided to trust him.

Meanwhile, Bakorio shot Kurama a helpless look before he said "You really are troublesome to carry around"

'And you are troublesome to be around' thought Mukai while looking at Bakorio helplessly who was the definition of the pot calling the kettle black.

"What can I do, I'm just too great for these people" said Kurama both jokingly and in irony to his situation…

Heaving a sigh, Bakorio decided to be mindful of his words in the future and walked towards Gamabunta who was observing him closely " So, how are we going to do this…"

Jiraiya shot them a mischievous look and said "Unfortunately, it's going to be a slimy trip…" and Gamabunta started opening his mouth the moment Jiraiya finished, disgusting the trio and causing them to lament their fate…

"Seriously…"
