Established facts are composed of fragmented information, which is intelligence.

After Jiraiya left the village, he began to travel around the country. He seemed aimless, but secretly collected information about Xiao. Thanks to Xiao's standard clothing, it was like a road sign guiding him. Not long after leaving the village, he wandered in the territory of Fire and found a young man wearing a black-bottomed red cloud robe. The man's right ear was half gone.

Since then, Jiraiya has been following the man quietly. After a while, he found that the man was simply taking on the reward task from the black market. Apart from that, he did not take over with anyone, let alone the stronghold he wanted to investigate, except to have a clear judgment on the man's strength, he has gained nothing else.

However, Jiraiya knew that this man would definitely associate with other members of Akatsuki, so he did not alert the enemy and waited patiently for the opportunity.

It was not until a month later that the opportunity he had waited for finally came.

The north of the country of fire, needle the woods.

The sun sets in the west, and long needle leaves slowly fall from the trees, falling on the ground covered with needle leaves.

The young man carried his bulging bags and stepped on the needle layer, making a creaking sound, walking towards the depths of the woods.

Jiraiya used all fours, lying on the trunk like a gecko, keeping a distance from the young man.

The ground is covered with needles, and it is easy to make sounds when stepped on it. In order to reduce the chance of being discovered, he deliberately kept a distance and quietly followed the young man with trees as the way.

Following the young man to the depths of the woods, he saw the young man stopping in front of a needle tree with strange scratches, and he stopped moving.

He hid in the dark, poked his head and stared at the target who was resting.

"I finally waited for this moment." Jiraiya thought to himself that from discovering Akatsuki's traces to following him for a month, he finally gained something.

After waiting for about twenty minutes, night fell, and a creaking sound suddenly came from the dark and quiet forest from a distance, from far to near.

The young man under the tree looked slightly moved and looked in the direction where the sound came.

Jiraiya, who was hiding in the dark, was shocked and looked in the direction of the sound. In his thoughts, it was probably the person who came to the joint.

Deep in the woods, with the increasingly obvious sound, a figure appeared faintly and slowly appeared. Under the dim light, a pair of eyes shone with a faint green light, but it was the horns.

The man with a horn walked towards the broken ear under the needle tree. The latter looked at him with a respectful look on his face and immediately handed him his bag.

"Lord Beidou, this is the mission this month."

Koudu took the bag and measured the weight. A gleam of splendor flashed through his eyes. He nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's a good job."

The bag contains the money obtained from the remnant man who received a reward this month.

When the man with a broken ear heard Kaoru's words, his face suddenly showed an excited expression, as if the efforts of this month were waiting for Kaoru's praise.

"A month later, the old rules." After getting the money, Jiao didn't want to stay for too long, so he turned around and left.

"Yes!" The man with a stolen ear looked at Kaoru's back with a respectful expression.

In the dark, Jiraiya, who was watching this scene, frowned slightly. He followed the Can't Er Nai for a month and knew that Can't Er Nai had been receiving reward tasks this month, and that bag was probably the Can't Er Nai for a month, but now it was handed over to another member of Akatsuki.

The light was quite dark, and he could only vaguely see Kaoru's clothing and a pair of green eyes. He could not hear the conversation between the two. He looked like this from afar. After the two said a few words, Kaoru took his bag and turned around and left.

"Do you want to follow that person?" Jiraiya looked hesitant and followed him rashly, it would be difficult to deal with once he was discovered.

"Let's just catch this person first and interrogate him."

After thinking for a while, he gave up this plan and instead focused on the can't-eared man.

From the short contact between Jiaodu and the Can't Ear Man, Jirai couldn't hear the sound, nor could he see clearly the appearance of Jiaodu hidden in the darkness. But the only thing that was clear was that Xiao seemed to be making money, and he didn't know that it was just a mercenary group who made money simply.

But why did Ye Zi join such an organization?

Based on this question, he did not think that Xiao was just a simple money-making organization.

Jiraiya decided not to hesitate for too long, so he decided to catch the stolen man and interrogate him.

After watching the kodu leave, the man with a broken ear headed in the other direction.

Seeing this, Jiraiya followed him.

After following for an hour, the two of them came out of the needle forest one after another.

The night is dark and it is the time when the moon is dark and the wind is high.

"Toad, the art of mouth binding."

Jiraiya suddenly flashed in front of the man with a broken ear. When the latter responded instantly, he slapped his hands on the ground, and the light red unknown soft tissue appeared out of thin air, spreading around, surrounding the two of them.

"!"

The man with stolen ears looked at the peristaltic intestinal wall around him, with a slightly panic expression. He held Kuwu and stared at Jiraiya fifty meters ahead.

"You are Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas!"

After seeing Jiraiya's appearance clearly, the panic on the man with stolen ears couldn't help but deepen.

"I didn't expect my fame is pretty good."

Seeing the stolen man recognize him all at once, Jirai also smiled quite complacently.

After recognizing Jiraiya's identity, the stolen man immediately observed the surroundings, trying to find an opportunity to escape. Just kidding, the other party was the famous Konoha Sannin, who could not beat him alone.

"Don't work hard, this is the stomach of the big toad in Yansu. Unless I release you, you don't have to think about it." Seeing that the stolen man wanted to escape, Jiraiya smiled.

The man with a broken ear was shocked when he heard this, but he didn't believe it very much.

Wind escape, wind blade!

He made a seal and spit out a huge wind blade and slashed the intestinal wall. He immediately cut a huge scar on the intestinal wall, but the wound was not deep and healed directly within one second.

"What..." He looked shocked. The strongest and most penetrating wind escape he mastered was not effective at all.

"Didn't I tell you?"

Jiraiya shrugged, pressed his hands together, and his white hair suddenly grew wildly and flew towards the man with a shocked look on his face, curling it up like a python.

The long hair tied the whole body of the man with broken ears, leaving only a pair of eyes and nose. Jiraiya controlled the long hair and lifted the man with broken ears in mid-air.

"Okay, the next time is the time to ask questions."

Hearing Jiraiya's words, the man's doubts were explained instantly. The other party would come to a small role like him, just for the organization, and he was the target of being targeted, probably to get information about the organization from him.

He realized this and his eyes began to become fierce, wanting to bite his tongue and commit suicide. However, his long hair penetrated deep into his mouth, shattering his thoughts.

I realized that the man with a sacred ear wanted to commit suicide, Jiraiya looked at the cruelty in the man with a sacred ear, and his eyes flashed. In order not to disclose information, he chose to commit suicide. If this happens...

"It seems that the stern ceremony is useless to you, it's a bit troublesome. I'm not good at illusion. If that's the case, there's nothing I can do."

Jiraiya scratched the back of his head with a little distress.
