"Mm, understood." A exchanged glances with Mabui and Dodai, then nodded.
"Does that mean you agree, Lord Raikage?" Mitokado Homura was inwardly delighted, thinking A had agreed to the request for an alliance.
"Hmph, when did I say I agreed? Leave us for now..." A waved impatiently.
"Well..." Mitokado Homura felt helpless, thinking that persuading Amegakure really was no easy task.
A ignored Mitokado Homura and instead looked at Jiraiya, who had been relatively quiet beside him. "Jiraiya, I remember you once told me that this Child of Prophecy you spoke of was Minato Namikaze?"
At that, Jiraiya looked a little embarrassed.
A and Jiraiya naturally knew each other.
In fact, they had met before the Third Shinobi World War.
Back then, Jiraiya had been traveling the Shinobi World and encountered the young A.
At the time, A was still a genius ninja of Kumogakure.
The Second Shinobi World War had already ended, and the two had only briefly exchanged blows when they met.
Afterward, Jiraiya had told A that he was searching for the Child of Prophecy spoken of by the Great Toad Sage.
He had also told him that the Child of Prophecy would end the wars of the Shinobi World and bring it peace.
A, for his part, had scoffed at it.
Ending the wars of the Shinobi World? Peace? He believed only in the power in his own hands!
It was not until the Third Shinobi World War that he and Killer B, fighting together, encountered the still very young Minato Namikaze.
Having mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique at such a young age, Minato Namikaze was immensely powerful.
With his extraordinary movement speed, Minato Namikaze had almost single-handedly reversed Konoha's losing fortunes throughout the Third Shinobi World War!
