"This little guy is the disciple of little Jiraiya," Fukasaku replied respectfully. Upon hearing this, the Great Toad Sage opened his narrowed eyes and looked at Minato. "Hello, Great Sage," Minato said respectfully. The atmosphere became quiet for a while. Jiraiya and Fukasaku were both looking at the Great Toad Sage, but Minato seemed to have other thoughts. They all suspected that the child of prophecy might be him, but Minato knew that if he did not have his memory and sent back to the past, he would have died shortly after becoming the Fourth Hokage. The child of prophecy is obviously not him. Minato thought it would be his newborn child, Naruto. He was a little willful to make such a judgment, but Minato firmly believed that the child who was given a name by his teacher and inherited his and Kushina's bloodline would save the ninja world.
"This little guy..." After about a minute, the Great Toad Sage finally had something to say, and everyone held their breath, waiting for his answer. "Very cute." "Ah?" Everyone was stunned, and then Jiraiya was dumbfounded, and sweat oozed out of Fukasaku's forehead. "What are you talking about? We want to ask you, is little Minato the child of prophecy?" Fukasaku immediately explained the purpose of their visit. They were originally looking forward to the Great Toad Sage telling them some information.
The Great Toad Sage heard this, shook his head, and said, "Regarding that prophecy, I only saw a corner of the future, so I can't tell whether he is the child of prophecy or not." "Is that so," Jiraiya said. He wanted to know some information from the Great Toad Sage, but he didn't get anything. But Minato was not surprised. He looked at the Great Toad Sage and said, "Sage, I want to ask you, what exactly does the future you see, about the changes and destruction of the ninja world, look like?" He believed that as long as there was a little information, this trip to Mount Myoboku would not be in vain.
At this time, the Great Toad Sage lowered his eyelids and looked sleepy. He said, "Let's talk about these things after I wake up." Then, the Great Toad Sage fell asleep. Seeing this, Fukasaku advised Minato, saying, "In this case, we can only wait until the Great Toad Sage wakes up. Maybe there will be some new prophecies in his dream." Minato nodded. "Then what should we do during this time?" Jiraiya asked. Fukasaku chuckled and said, "I haven't seen you for so long, let me try to see how strong you are now."
Jiraiya had been training in Mount Myoboku since he was a child. In addition to the Third Hokage, he was also taught by Fukasaku. It can be said that Fukasaku is also Jiraiya's master. "Okay." Jiraiya was eager to fight after hearing this. He didn't think that he would lose to Fukasaku now. They immediately asked the toad in charge of guarding. As soon as the Great Toad Sage woke up, they would be called immediately. After that, they left.
In an open space somewhere in Mount Myoboku, Jiraiya said, "Minato, just watch the fight from the side." Although Minato was young, he was smart. Jiraiya fighting with Fukasaku would surely bring him some inspiration. Minato nodded and concentrated. Fukasaku smiled. Its tiny figure seemed to be a disadvantage in front of the tall Jiraiya. Swish! However, the next moment, Fukasaku's figure disappeared directly. At this speed, Minato could only see a trace of its shadow. Minato naturally knew the level of Fukasaku. If he were placed in the ninja world, he would definitely be one of the ninjas that stand on the top.
Jiraiya's pupils shrank, and then he punched directly. "Bang!" The two fists met, and the ground under Jiraiya's feet seemed to crack. Then he took a few steps back before he released all the strength. "Your reflexes and strength are very good." Fukasaku, who was completely in the air at this moment, smiled. Minato knew that although Jiraiya's current strength was definitely not weak, there was still some gap compared to Fukasaku.
After Jiraiya stabilized his body, he rushed directly to Fukasaku, without any intention of using ninjutsu. Because he knew that using ninjutsu in front of Fukasaku was just asking for trouble. Jiraiya punched out with both fists, a straight punch and an uppercut, cutting off Fukasaku Sage's retreat. However, Fukasaku Sage just stretched out one hand, caught Jiraiya's fist, and then landed on his uppercut. Jiraiya's uppercut seemed to be hit by some huge force, and the strength of the fist was completely offset.
Standing lightly on Jiraiya's hand, Fukasaku released the hand that blocked Jiraiya's fist, and then punched him in the chest. In a hurry, Jiraiya withdrew the hand that had just touched Fukasaku, but the latter was too fast and he was not able to catch up completely. In the end, his right arm still blocked part of Fukasaku's fist, so that the former's fist only rubbed against his chest. Even so, he staggered back more than ten steps before he could stabilize his body. "The boss is still so strong." Jiraiya smiled bitterly, and Fukasaku had no intention of continuing to fight.
The whole process was very fast. Although Minato on the side saw some of it, if it were him, he would probably not be able to make a single move. Because the reflexes could not keep up at all, although the eyes could see it, there was no time to make a judgment and give instructions to the brain. Fukasaku smiled lightly, nodded, and said: "Not bad, your current level should be ranked among the best in Konoha." It is not surprising that Jiraiya cannot defeat Fukasaku, because the latter used more than just simple physical skills. Fukasaku's strength is obviously greater than Jiraiya's because Fukasaku manipulates the natural energy in the air.
Minato also knew this. It was not easy for Jiraiya to compete with such a sage like Fukasaku in physical skills without losing. "Calculating the time, it should have been more than ten years since you first came to Mount Myoboku, right?" Fukasaku said. "Yes." After Jiraiya learned the summoning jutsu, he did not sign a contract with any summoning beast family, but he wanted to find his own. Then he came to Mount Myoboku. "Now you have become a ninja who can stand on your own, and you have accepted disciples, so now... I should teach you the Senjutsu of Mount Myoboku." Sage Fukasaku smiled lightly. "Boss, are you serious?" Jiraiya's eyes lit up when he heard this, and then a look of joy appeared on his face.
