The ninja world is reborn, and everyone is resurrected at the start.

At this moment, all six members of Payne's group had finally arrived!

"Six people? There are actually six people?"

"Hey, look, those three we just took care of are here too!"

"Perhaps the newly summoned beings resurrected them in some way!"

"How could there possibly be a ninjutsu that could revive three completely dead people? Are these guys even human?"

"Payne, who exactly are you?"

In the video, whether it was that all six Paths of Pain possessed the Rinnegan, or that the three people previously killed by Jiraiya were resurrected, these things far exceeded the three of them's understanding. At this moment, Jiraiya felt an unprecedented sense of crisis!

"Payne is the collective name used for the six of us."

The Heavenly Dao spoke up to explain!

"Why? All six of them possess the Rinnegan! Wait, you are...?"

Upon seeing Tendo's familiar face, Jiraiya seemed to realize something and was so surprised he couldn't speak!

"I can't believe I'm still so handsome even after becoming the Heavenly Dao!!"

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit heavy, Yahiko stepped forward and smiled!

But at this moment, both Konan and Nagato were consumed by self-blame, so no one replied to him!

"you..."

Seeing his two friends' self-reproachful expressions, Yahiko was about to go up and comfort them when something unexpected happened in the video. Helpless, Yahiko could only focus his attention back on the video!

"Little Jiraiya, retreat immediately!"

In the video, Pain's Six Paths attacked Jiraiya directly!

At this moment, Jiraiya, who was seriously injured, was clearly no match for them. Fukasaku also took this into consideration and hurriedly advised him!

"Yahiko, why do you have Nagato's eyes?"

Jiraiya did not reply to Fukasaku's words!

After dodging the attacks of the others, he directly attacked the Heavenly Dao!

However, Jiraiya was severely injured at this time and only had one arm left, so his attack was easily blocked by Pain!

Even if you knew this, you still couldn't defeat us.

The Heavenly Path threw Jiraiya out with one hand, and then the Asura Path quickly launched missiles at the thrown Jiraiya!

However, Jiraiya was no pushover. Despite being seriously injured, his speed did not slow down at all. He dodged the attack with a serpentine movement!

"Kid, give up!"

Seeing Jiraiya's battered and bruised appearance, Shima said anxiously!

"We must find a weakness, even if it means mutual destruction..."

However, Jiraiya clearly did not want to give up at this moment, and he directly rejected Shima's suggestion while panting!

Meanwhile, the Deva Path was not idle either. After Jiraiya dodged the Asura Path's attack, he directly used the Universal Pull to draw out a boulder and push Jiraiya to the bottom of the water!

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jiraiya hid in the water and set up a barrier. He then pulled the Animal Path into the barrier while the Animal Path was not paying attention, intending to take advantage of the situation to finish him off!

However, this animal realm is not to be trifled with!

Jiraiya successfully defeated him in a sneak attack!

But before he died, he used his last strength to attack Jiraiya with the black rod!

The attack wasn't fast, but Jiraiya was too badly injured and didn't have much strength left. In addition, Jiraiya didn't expect him to launch a counterattack before he died, so he didn't dodge!

And so, the black rod of the Animal Path pierced through Jiraiya's right hand and even through his chest!

This made Jiraiya's already numerous injuries even more severe!

"Could you... please not be so cruel!"

At the timber plaza, many people couldn't bear to watch Jiraiya in this state!

"Jiraiya-sama is your teacher, and he has only ever shown you kindness, not hatred. Why are you treating him like this?"

"That's exactly what I'm saying! With Shangcheng in such a state, can't you just spare his life?"

"Please, run, Lord Jiraiya! Your disciple doesn't care about our past relationship at all. If this continues, you'll really die!"

Although the people of Konoha didn't harbor much hatred towards Pain, his actions at this moment were simply too much, and even those who weren't from Konoha couldn't help but condemn him!

The people of Konoha were even more unrestrained; they unleashed every curse word they had ever learned and hurled it at Pain!

At that moment, the headband on the forehead of the Pain that Jiraiya had just defeated suddenly fell off!

The moment the headband fell off, Jiraiya immediately noticed the scar on his forehead!

The ninja's memory was so good that Jiraiya immediately recognized the person the moment he saw the wound!

"Oh right, I remember now, this guy isn't Nagato at all."

After realizing the person's identity, Jiraiya did not relax; instead, he spoke with even greater seriousness!

"What's wrong"

Kamisaku asked, somewhat puzzled, regarding Jiraiya's reaction.

"I've fought this man before. He's a member of the Wind Demon Clan, whom I encountered when I first embarked on my journey, following the prophecy of the Great Toad Sage. The scar on his forehead is the one I left!"

Why is that guy here?

"I'm getting more and more confused about Payne!"

At this moment, Jiraiya remembered the Great Toad Sage's prophecy, and he closed his eyes and said:

“If what the prophecy says is true, I will go to those guys again, because there are things that need to be confirmed. You two should go back!”

Jiraiya's words startled Fukasaku and Shima, who were perched on his shoulders. Looking at Jiraiya's expression, the two knew that Jiraiya was not joking!

Fukasaku naturally objected to this near-fatal undertaking:

"No, we'll definitely get killed if we go this time. The number of eyes has increased, and the barrier traps can't be used against the enemy again. Those guys haven't noticed us yet. If we want to escape, we can only do it now!"

0 ········Requesting flowers 0 ········

"Although we might get killed if we go out now, we might also be able to find out the enemy's true identity. If we miss this opportunity, there will probably never be anyone who can get this close to Pain again. The chance to expose his true identity is now!"

Now is the moment of choice foretold by the Great Toad Sage. Big brother and big sister, please take back all the information we have about Pain so far, along with this body of Pain! Then tell Tsunade…”

At this moment, Jiraiya was resolute; he was prepared to sacrifice himself at any moment!

"This kind of thing is enough to leave to the child's mother."

Seeing that Jiraiya was determined, Fukasaku knew he couldn't persuade him, but he was really worried about leaving Jiraiya alone, so Fukasaku decided to stay and keep him company!

"But..."

Jiraiya said somewhat hesitantly!

Although he was prepared to sacrifice himself, he did not want to implicate others. If Fukasaku were with him, he would most likely be sacrificed as well!

"Be back before dinner!"

Shima saw Jiraiya's concerns. Like Fukasaku, he was also worried about leaving Jiraiya alone, so he spoke up in advance!

"After it's over, I'll go back and have dinner with Jiraiya."

Fukasaku smiled and agreed on Jiraiya's behalf!

"I am so grateful..."

Jiraiya knew that going out now would mean certain death!

But Fukasaku and Shima, knowing all this, still decided to take the risk together!

At this moment, Jiraiya was speechless with gratitude.

"Why not run? Sure, but with the combined strength of the Wood Industry, I refuse to believe we can't find any news of Payne!"

"No, I don't want Uncle Jiraiya to die!"

"I don't understand. Knowing you'd die, why would you go up there?"

"Wasn't anyone else there to help at this point?"

At this point, the viewers were already in tears. Whether adults or children, they didn't want to see Jiraiya die!

Everyone knew perfectly well that his actions at this moment were tantamount to courting death!

Many people know that the events depicted in the video will never happen, but that doesn't stop them from getting emotionally invested. It's like watching a movie; many people know that the death of the main character is fake, but the audience still can't help but shed tears!

"Actually, Jiraiya-sama's choice was correct. In the ninja world at that time, without information about Pain, it was virtually impossible for anyone to actually kill him!"

"Yes! All six of them are corpses. No matter how many times they are killed, they will be resurrected. Moreover, their strength is so great. To put it bluntly, if we don't figure out their strength, the ninja world will really be in danger!"

"Dangerous things always have to be done by someone. It was because of Jiraiya-sama's selfless dedication that Konoha was able to minimize its losses during Pain's attack!"

Just as there are emotional people, there are also rational people. Emotional people are used to looking at problems from an emotional perspective, so they don't want Jiraiya to die!

But rational people are different; they see things more from a utilitarian perspective! In their view, figuring out Pain's situation is the most urgent task at hand, which is why they understand Jiraiya's choice!

In the video, Jiraiya emerges from the barrier and attacks the Animal Path, but he easily dodges it!
