The Man Who Became God

Foreseeing a possible battle, Jiraiya takes precautionary measures by storage releasing the scroll toad that commands the key to Naruto’s Eight-Signed Seal. He then resumes his reconnaissance mission by taking on the appearance of one of the captured genin, leaving the real one under Gamagoro’s care. His actions, however, have already caught Pain’s attention, and Jiraiya is ambushed by a storm of paper. Appearing before Jiraiya, who managed to escape the attack, is his former student Konan and another former student, one who no longer retains his former appearance.
