Not far from the battlefield where Dawn and Kakuzu were fighting, a man with a white hedgehog head sat leisurely on a tree branch, staring at the duel between the two.

"Well... this kid's strength is indeed good. Apart from that, his other conditions and talents all meet my standards for taking him in as a disciple. It's just that he is a little different from the son of prophecy predicted by the Great Toad Sage. Why don't I take him to Myoboku Mountain and let the Great Toad Sage see if he is the son of prophecy? If not, we can also see if he will pose a threat to Konoha in the future. If not, I can also take him in as a disciple. Well... this is a pleasant decision."

On the front battlefield, Poxiao and Kakuzu stood facing each other, but after the fight just now, neither of them took the initiative to attack again.

After seeing the strength of Dawn, Kakuzu was secretly shocked: "This kid from Konoha is so powerful. If we really fight, even if I can win, I will have to fight with my life for my life, and lose at least one heart. What's more, judging from the power of this kid, he probably has a considerable family in Konoha. Even if I can kill him, I won't get any reward by taking his head to Jinsho, and it will be easy for Konoha to target him and hide everywhere. And if I sell this ninja sword, the Hidden Mist Village might take it. Hmm... This deal is not worth it."

Poxiao was thinking in his mind, "Kakuzu's strength is indeed extraordinary. It seems that I can only use the defense-breaking effect of the Demon Sealing Sword to have some effect."

The Demon Sealing Sword Technique did have the magical effect of breaking through the enemy's defense, but Poxiao had some concerns. He remembered that when he first used this sword technique, the faint red blood energy in the sword had some influence on him, and he almost fell into a frenzy of killing on the battlefield.

At this time, Tianming said in Dawn's mind: "Although you have learned many ninjutsu and skills, there are only a few that have reached S-level. Flying Thunder God Technique is one, but you should have discovered that your proficiency in Flying Thunder God is far less than Minato's. If Minato came over, he might be able to kill Kakuzu with Flying Thunder God alone. However, you still have a choice, which is to use the ninjutsu extraction opportunity you saved before in exchange for a hero template extraction."

Poxiao pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "Let's try the Demon Sealing Sword Technique first. If it still doesn't work, then consider extracting the hero template."

After saying that, he drew out another sword from his back, ready to perform the Demon Sealing Sword Technique to try it with Kakuzu again.

However, at this moment, Kakuzu on the opposite side suddenly spoke: "Little devil from Konoha, are you sure you want this ninja sword?"

Although Xiao was confused, he nodded. Kakuzu picked up the ninja sword next to Kurochu Raiga and threw it to Xiao.

"Okay, take it. I've wasted so much time with you that I've already missed out on making a lot of money." Kakuzu said as he put away the Earth Grudge Technique, put on a black robe, picked up the two corpses on the ground and left.

Poxiao looked at Kakuzu's receding back and couldn't help wondering, "Did he really just give me the ninja sword like that? Was there no trick?"

After Tianming pondered for a while, he analyzed in Poxiao's mind: "For a person like Kakuzu who puts profit above all else, the reason he left may be because he felt that if he continued to fight you, his losses would be much greater than the benefits he would gain after defeating you, which is a bit unprofitable."

Poxiao nodded, thinking that what Tianming said made sense.

At this time, Jiraiya, who had been watching the battle from the side, came over and said, "Boy, you are not bad. You can even fight a Kage-level warrior to a draw."

Dawn looked at Jiraiya and asked in surprise, "Master Jiraiya, have you been here all this time?"

Jiraiya nodded, "I've been here since you started fighting."

Dawn asked in confusion: "Then why don't you help me and keep the horns?"

Jiraiya asked back in confusion, "Stay? Why? He is just a renegade ninja from a small ninja village, and he is just taking some missions in the gold exchange office."

Dawn explained: "But he once assassinated the First Hokage! Even though he only threw a kunai from a distance, he was still an enemy of our Konoha!"

Jiraiya smiled and said, "Oh? Assassination of the First Hokage? I haven't heard of this. But when you mentioned kunai, I do have some impression of it. I heard from my teacher that the First Hokage once used a wooden clone to look for something, but couldn't find it. At this moment, a kunai was thrown from somewhere, and it happened to be stuck in the ground in the direction of what he was looking for. After the First Hokage knew about this, he always regretted not thanking him in person."

Poxiao's mind was working rapidly, and he instantly connected the two things together.

The destiny in his mind couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Hahaha, so this is how it all happened. If Kaku knew that the First Hokage wanted to thank him, I wonder if he would regret running away so fast."

Jiraiya smiled and said to Dawn: "Boy, I see you have great talent, are you interested in going somewhere with me?"

Dawn asked curiously, "Where?"

Jiraiya no longer concealed anything and directly told Dawn about the prophecy of the Great Toad Sage: "Over the years, I have been looking for the person who fits the prophecy of the Great Toad Sage. But although I see that you don't quite fit the prophecy, your talent and strength seem to be stronger than the son of prophecy, which makes me feel strange. However, prophecy is something that cannot be completely identical to things in reality, so I want to take you to Myoboku Mountain with me to let the Great Toad Sage see if his prophecy was wrong or not. Of course, even if you are not the son of prophecy, as long as you will not pose a threat to Konoha or damage Konoha in the future, then you will still have the opportunity to become the apprentice of me, one of the legendary three ninjas - the hero Jiraiya. Isn't it a very tempting condition?"

After hearing this, Poxiao was excited: whether he could become Jiraiya's apprentice was not important, but wasn't he looking for a summoning beast to contract with in exchange for a hero in the summoning league? Unexpectedly, this time Jiraiya personally delivered the contract scroll of Myoboku Mountain to his door.

How could he refuse such an opportunity? So, he accepted Jiraiya's proposal without hesitation and said, "It's just a matter of accompanying you. Master Jiraiya, you don't have to be so polite to accept me as your apprentice."

Afterwards, Dawn followed Jiraiya's instructions and solemnly wrote his name on the contract scroll of Myoboku Mountain.

Afterwards, Jiraiya led Dawn to perform the reverse summoning technique.

After a dizzying moment, the two arrived at the legendary Myoboku Mountain.
