I think it's interesting. I did Rxb5, so black did Ra4#. But if I do the right move, I get important material advantage.

1. Nd6+; Rxd6
Not a good idea.
Best move is Kxb5. With that I would keep +2 material advantage.

I mean the king can just take the free pawn, right?
Yes, either the king or the rook can take the pawn in b5, but only Kxb5 is an appropriate move
