"Hey, Jiraiya, is that toad of yours really a sage?"
Bieshu Feifan walked beside Jiraiya, asking him one question after another.
Jiraiya nodded.
"Of course. The Great Toad Sage has lived for thousands of years. Of course he's a sage."
"Then could he beat the legendary Sage of Six Paths?"
Jiraiya frowned. He really had never considered that question.

Bieshu Feifan's face darkened.
"Jiraiya, I was normal to begin with, all right?
In terms of intelligence alone, I've got more than enough to be Hokage.
Without me, old buddy Sarutobi couldn't even make sense of that huge pile of homework.

Once I take the throne, I'll open a brothel in Konoha just for you.
Your toads can come too, whether to work there or visit the prostitutes. Either is fine.
If you want, I can even call Orochimaru over for you."
Jiraiya's face turned black as the bottom of a
