Chapter 24 - Summoning Scroll
Chapter 24: Summoning Scroll
“Blank! What does this mean!”
Ruofeng was a little shocked. The scroll in front of him had appeared almost too clean. Only the first page recorded a fire escape technique—the Great Fireball Technique. The rest of the scroll remained pure white, with no text at all.
Ruofeng narrowed his eyes and said, “No… This scroll is a little strange!”
Then he stared at the only fire escape technique recorded on the scroll, noticing something odd.
At the end of it, it said: “To view the scroll, you need the Sharingan. As the Sharingan becomes stronger, you can see more things.”
This sentence made Ruofeng fall into silence.
He shook his head and smiled bitterly, a hint of dissatisfaction in his expression. “What a mess, you still need the Sharingan to view it.”
With dissatisfaction, but helplessness, Ruofeng had not awakened the Sharingan yet and couldn’t see anything. Staring at the blank scroll, he could only give up.
The two scrolls… Uchiha Zan wrote too strongly, and it is of no help to me now. The inheritance of the Uchiha Zan leader requires the Sharingan to see, which is messed up.
He put away the two scrolls and looked at the last one instead.
Staring at the scroll, Ruofeng’s eyes showed a trace of thought.
Uchiha Zan had left a lot of things, but Ruofeng didn’t know what they were. However, everything was here in the secret room. Grandpa had only told him about the two scrolls and his grandfather’s Sharingan. He hadn’t said anything else, and Ruofeng guessed Grandpa himself didn’t know.
Ruofeng stared at the scroll in front of him. This was also the last scroll in the secret room. He brushed off the dust and saw three big words written on it.
He stared at the three big words and said, “Beast King Mountain? Why is there such a name written on this scroll? What kind of scroll is this!”
“This is a spiritual scroll!”
Just as Ruofeng was wondering, an old voice spoke.
He turned sharply and saw Grandpa standing at the door of the secret room, sighing.
Ruofeng said, “Grandpa… why are you here!”
Grandpa sighed. “You knew about this yesterday, so you were ready to do it. You will naturally come here to watch the ninjutsu today, but some things will kill you if you practice them randomly. I’m naturally worried, so after you entered here, I followed you quietly. Fortunately, you still have reason and didn’t rashly practice the ninjutsu recorded by Uchiha Zan, or else I definitely wouldn’t let you step into this place!”
After saying this, Ruofeng felt a little scared. I didn’t expect that Grandpa had been following me all this time, and I hadn’t noticed it. Is this the strength of Grandpa?
He thought for a while, then looked at the scroll and asked, “Grandpa… Is this a summoning scroll?”
Grandpa nodded. “Yes… This is the summoning scroll, and it is also the core scroll of the contract.”
“The core scroll is the most precious summoning scroll of the summoning Zan!” Ruofeng recalled Jiraiya’s words and slowly said them aloud.
Ruofeng knew a lot about summoning scrolls. Jiraiya, being an expert in using the summoning technique, had talked to him about many things during their time together. This summoning scroll was one of them.
There are three types of summoning scrolls, and they are divided into different levels.
The first type: is core scroll! This is the core of the summoned beast. Only those who are recognized by the summoned beast can sign this scroll. For example, Jiraiya had signed the core scroll. However, the core scroll was rarely taken out and was usually kept by the high-ranking members of the Zan. For example, the core scroll of Miaomushan was kept by Shima and Fukasaku.
The second type is: an ordinary scroll! This one is more common. After signing it, whether the summoned beast is obedient or not depends mainly on the previous relationship between the person and the summoned beast.
The third type: is a disposable scroll! This can be used by many people. Blood from the person who signed the contract is required, and then the scroll is used to summon the summoned beast. For example, when Kiba collapsed, the snakes summoned by the sound ninja were from disposable scrolls.
At this moment, Ruofeng stared at the summoning scroll in front of him and said, “Grandpa… Is this the core scroll? Uncle Jiraiya said the core scrolls are usually collected by the summoning beasts and rarely placed in the outside world!”
Speaking of the core scroll, Ruofeng remembered the core scroll of the Earth Dragon Cave in the original story. The core scroll of the Earth Dragon Cave had always been kept by the White Snake Immortal, protected by the White Snake Immortal. Sometimes Ruofeng wondered if the contract signed by Orochimaru and the Earth Dragon Cave had been signed on an ordinary summoning scroll instead of a core scroll. Otherwise, why don’t the snakes listen to Orochimaru’s orders?
Grandpa shook his head and said, “The core scroll of the psychic Zan is important, but what will happen if this psychic beast Zan is destroyed!”
Ruofeng heard this and stared at the psychic scroll in front of him in surprise. “No way… This psychic Zan named: Beast King Mountain has been destroyed!”
“Yes… This psychic Zan was originally a psychic Zan unique to the Uchiha Zan. But this psychic Zan was very arrogant and angered Uchiha Zan. In the end, they were wiped out by Uchiha Zan, and then the core psychic scroll fell here. Even if you sign a contract, you can’t summon anything. Maybe you can enter the Beast King Mountain, but there are no psychic beasts in it!” Grandpa said slowly.
Ruofeng sighed. “Killed by Uchiha Zan, this is too much!”
Grandpa chuckled. “Messed up? This is normal. When Uchiha Izuna’s summoning beast had problems, Izuna was seriously injured. Uchiha Zan was furious and killed all the summoning beasts. Sometimes, summoning beasts are very reliable partners, but for Uchiha Zan, ordinary summoning beasts are a burden.”
After saying this, Ruofeng chose to remain silent.
Grandpa thought for a while and said, “That’s enough for today. The scroll written by Uchiha Zan is not for you to peek at at your age. The inheritance of the Uchiha Zan leader requires you to open your Sharingan. If you want to practice, take this!”
After saying this, Grandpa took out an ancient scroll.
Ruofeng was a little confused and asked, “What is recorded in this scroll?”
Grandpa said with a touch of nostalgia, “This is the scroll left by your grandfather. It records your grandfather’s ninjutsu and experience, as well as his experience in using the Sharingan. In addition to these, your grandfather also recorded some practical things left by Uchiha Zan.”
After hearing this, Ruofeng’s grandfather handed the scroll over and walked out of the secret room.
Ruofeng followed his grandfather and didn’t forget to take the summoning scroll of Beast King Mountain with him.
