"Fear will suppress war, and the world is moving towards stability. Pain will help the world grow, just as it did for me in the past. For the world to grow, think, and move forward, it needs God's guidance. The world is still just a child."
Jiraiya fundamentally disagreed with Nagato's proposed means of achieving peace. "To make the world grow, you must teach it pain! Is that your mission?"
"That's right, because I am a pacifist god."
"You've gotten quite the joker, Nagato." Jiraiya realized that his student seemed to have developed a bit of chuunibyou (middle school syndrome).
"A joke? This is no joke. It's my ideal." Jiraiya didn't notice that the Animal Path had already broken free of its restraints in the instant Jiraiya was speaking.
"I'm here, Jiraiya- sensei."
"Is this your Summoning Technique?"
At this moment, Nagato, having broken free from the Wild Lion's Mane Technique, stood on another summoning beast. After all, one of the abilities of the Animal Path is to summon summoning beasts, and Nagato now looked at Jiraiya if he were a tiny ant.
Jiraiya was not one to back down either; he also knew Summoning Techniques.
"Haha, Summoning Technique."
"To think I'd be treated like a kid by a little brat! Come to think of it, I'm not even human anymore!!" Jiraiya laughed, adding that he was still a sage, after all.
"Tears of blood welled up from anger. It turns out the Sannin have now become sages! The Toad demon of Mount Myōboku! Lord Jiraiya!"
Jiraiya could finish speaking, a wobbling foot caused him to slip and fall, ruining his carefully crafted pose.
Looking at Jiraiya's comical appearance, Nagato, "He's still the same as before, Jiraiya- sensei."
Jiraiya propped himself up and spoke to Gamaken beneath him.
"You damn Gamaken! Don't start shaking around when I'm trying to look cool!"
As the smoke dissipated beneath his feet, a gigantic, dark red Toad slowly emerged, holding a fork in one hand and a shield made of bowls in the other.
"I'm rather useless, you know." Jiraiya couldn't really say anything to the good-natured Gamaken.
[Obito: What? I thought Lord Jiraiya's entrance was really cool, but it only lasted three seconds.]
[Tsunade: That's true, Jiraiya. You really don't have any respect for your own student.]
Jiraiya scratched his head awkwardly, chuckling to himself, then slapped his forehead. "This guy... he's still the same as before! So many people around, and he doesn't even know how to give his teacher any face."
[Konan: Does the teacher even need to save face? If you weren't peeping into the women's bathhouse...]
[Jiraiya: I was just doing that for research, okay? And Konan, why did you post that on the main channel?]
[Konan: Sorry, Master, I... I'll take it back right away.]
[Konan: Oh no, Master, I can't turn back!]
[Ōnoki: Seriously, are the people of Konoha really this frivolous? As the Kage of the village, Hiruzen Sarutobi, aren't you going to clean up the mess?]
[Hiruzen Sarutobi: You're right. Konoha absolutely cannot tolerate this kind of bad behavior. I'll order the Anbu to arrest anyone who sneaks into the women's bathhouse again.]
[Rasa: Is that so? I heard that the Third Hokage possessed a Telescope Technique, using crystal as a medium to observe the scenery of the village, and using the crystal ball to find people anytime, anywhere.]
[Mei Terumi: Pah, scum!]
[Yugito Nii: Pshaw, scum!]
[Tsunade: Ugh, you human... Hey, Orochimaru, why are you stopping me?]
[Hiruzen Sarutobi: How could that be? This technique is only used for reconnaissance; it can't actually see that far, and if something is blocking the view, it's impossible to see clearly at all.]
At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi quickly tried to defend himself, instead of explaining.
[Mei Terumi: Tch, using that kind of technique for reconnaissance? I despise you even more.]
[Yugito Nii: Right, right, he has the heart of a thief but not the guts.]
[Pakura: If that's the case, then wouldn't the Hyuga Clan be...]
[Hyuga Hiashi: No, no, everyone, don't misunderstand. The state of the Hyuga Clan when using the Byakugan is immediately obvious.]
[Pakura: So you're not denying that you can see it.]
Hyuga Hiashi was rendered speechless by Pakura's words, but as a renowned clan in Konoha, how could the Hyuga Clan do such a thing? Letting others know that the Hyuga Clan's century-old reputation would be completely ruined.
It's a pity that Konoha's bathhouses probably won't want to serve Hyuga Clan Shinobi anymore.
At this moment Jiraiya had already summoned Gamaken, a member of the Toad Clan. Unlike other Toads, Gamaken was always very humble.
"There's no need to test this guy; we need to go all out from the start."
At this moment, Nagato was standing on the back of another summoning beast, a chameleon. Upon seeing this, Jiraiya bit his finger, and his face instantly changed to another state.
"Activating Sage Mode!"
"No way, then..." Gamaken broke out in a cold sweat. Such a powerful opponent right off the bat?
"Just as you suspected, I need to summon those two immortals! But summoning them will take some time. During that time, my hands cannot be separated. Please, buy me some time until then!"
"I understand. Although I'm useless, I'll try my best."
For some unknown reason, the Animal Path suddenly disappeared along with the chameleon; it was clearly due to the summoned beast's ability to become invisible.
[Shikaku Nara: Did you become invisible using the chameleon's ability?]
[Yahiko: I never expected Nagato to have such an ability.]
What Nagato really wanted to say was that he didn't know any of the fancy skills shown on screen.
"Oh no, have I been too lax lately? How come I don't know any of these Ninjutsu?" Nagato thought to himself.
"Disappeared? This is troublesome! Where did they find the monster?" Jiraiya looked around but couldn't find the chameleon.
"Since they've become invisible, we'll have to use barrier tactics to deal with them."
"This is going to be a tough battle," said Gamaken.
"Yes, they've only become invisible, they haven't disappeared. You can use the barrier to sense their presence."
Pain's invisibility ability is incomplete, or rather, it's merely similar to a chameleon, where he blends into his surroundings to appear invisible, but he can still be detected.
Jiraiya leaped into the air, and immediately formed a massive hand seal that enveloped the surrounding environment.
Even from his hiding place, Nagato could see a very strange barrier radiating outwards, which would soon reach him.
"I remember that as long as you get caught up in it, you'll be sensed," Nagato explained to Jiraiya regarding his Ninjutsu.
[Obito: This is insane! With such a wide range, wouldn't it be able to find Nagato very quickly?]
[Kakashi: Lord Jiraiya- Sannin wasn't given lightly.]
[Hanzō: Did you hear that? I gave it to you!]
Hanzō expressed great pride, after all, not just anyone can bully the Konoha Sannin. To that, I can only say that he is Zabuza Momochi.
