    The Tale of Jiraiya the Gallant
    
    

[01:42] ---
    There's no end to this awful rain...
[01:46] ---
    Joking! I'm just joking!
[01:49] ---
    You know, I'm grateful to you.
[01:53] ---
    I'm sure Master Jiraiya is fine.
[01:56] ---
    He, of all people, wouldn't...
[01:58] ---
    He's not coming back...
[01:59] ---
    Huh?
[02:02] ---
    That's what I bet him.
[02:06] ---
    And I never win my bets.
[02:10] ---
    Oh, I see.
[02:25] ---
    Rejection makes a man stronger.
[02:28] ---
    And besides...
[02:31] ---
    *men aren't the ones
    who seek happiness.
[02:35] ---
    What a poser...
[02:39] ---
    When he gets back...
[02:41] ---
    I won't let him keep his cool.
[02:51] ---
    Pain... What are you?!
[02:56] ---
    Pain...
[02:58] ---
    That name is an alias that
    denotes all six of us.
[03:05] ---
    Y-You're...!
[03:07] ---
    That face...
[03:11] ---
    Is that you, Yahiko?
[03:12] ---
    *Oh yeah... There was such a guy,
    wasn't there?
[03:16] ---
    He died a long time ago.
[03:19] ---
    What's going on?
    I thought you said Yahiko died!
[03:22] ---
    Plus, those eyes...
[03:24] ---
    You see Yahiko's image in me?
[03:28] ---
    You really are his former Teacher.
[03:31] ---
    But Yahiko has been dead
    for quite some time.
[03:34] ---
    All that remains...is Pain.
[03:36] ---
    Quit it with the wordplay!
[03:38] ---
    Why do you possess the Rinnegan?!
[03:40] ---
    What are you talking about,
    Jiraiya-boy?
[03:43] ---
    One of my former students
    is among them.
[03:46] ---
    Except he didn't use to
    possess those eyes...
[03:49] ---
    What in tarnation is going on?
[03:52] ---
    You saying there are
    two children of prophecy?
[03:55] ---
    No, that's not it either...
[03:57] ---
    *When I saw the Rinnegan, I convinced
    myself that the first one was Nagato...
[04:03] ---
    *But he's subtly different
    from the Nagato I knew of...
[04:06] ---
    *Come to think of it,
    upon closer inspection,
[04:08] ---
    none of those six remind me of Nagato.
[04:13] ---
    *On the other hand,
    one of them resembles Yahiko...
[04:16] ---
    but possesses Nagato's Rinnegan...
[04:19] ---
    Are you Yahiko...or Nagato?
[04:24] ---
    Just what exactly are you?!
[04:26] ---
    We are Pain...
[04:31] ---
    We are god.
[04:35] ---
    Retreat, Jiraiya-boy!
[04:42] ---
    A god?!
[04:49] ---
    Yahiko! How could you possess
    Nagato's eyes?!
[04:53] ---
    Even if you knew that,
    you could not win!
[05:05] ---
    Lad! Give up already!
[05:07] ---
    I must find an opening to defeat them,
    even if it kills me!
[05:29] ---
    I don't sense his presence...
[05:38] ---
    This is...a barrier?
[05:48] ---
    Gastric fluid?
[05:51] ---
    Rasengan!
[06:07] ---
    You did it, Jiraiya-boy.
[06:19] ---
    Is he dead?
[06:20] ---
    I barely managed to kill one...
[06:23] ---
    only after dragging it into my barrier...
[06:28] ---
    Are you all right, lad?
[06:31] ---
    Somewhat...
[06:37] ---
    My body...?!
[06:38] ---
    My chakra's agitated!
[06:40] ---
    Is it this?!
[06:46] ---
    Their identity is a mystery,
    and they seem to use odd weapons too.
[06:52] ---
    They're no longer mortals...
    They're something entirely different.
[07:00] ---
    No one really knows what
    he looks like.
[07:02] ---
    And some claim that
    he doesn't even exist.
[07:07] ---
    *That face...
    He is unmistakably Yahiko...
[07:15] ---
    *And yet,
    he possesses Nagato's Rinnegan...
[07:19] ---
    *Did Yahiko steal them
    from Nagato for some reason?
[07:23] ---
    But...
[07:25] ---
    *There are other
    Rinnegan bearers as well...
[07:28] ---
    So what's going on?
[07:32] ---
    Plus...
[07:35] ---
    Understanding such pain enables you
    to be kind to others...
[07:41] ---
    That's what makes us human.
[07:43] ---
    What do you mean by that...?
[07:47] ---
    It's called growing up.
[07:51] ---
    Growing up? What do you mean?
[07:55] ---
    That, you need to figure out yourself.
[08:00] ---
    Too many people die here.
    That pain made me grow up.
[08:06] ---
    In which case,
    does that mean he is Nagato?
[08:25] ---
    That's right! Now I remember!
[08:28] ---
    This one is definitely not Nagato!
[08:30] ---
    What's the matter?
[08:32] ---
    This fellow before us...
[08:34] ---
    I've fought him before.
[08:38] ---
    He was a Fuma Clan member
    I encountered
[08:40] ---
    right after setting out on my journey,
    following the Great Lord Elder's prophecy.
[08:46] ---
    I gave him that scar on his forehead...
[08:49] ---
    So what's a fellow like him
    doing here?
[08:52] ---
    Now I'm even more confused
    about this whole Pain mystery.
[08:58] ---
    You will guide that revolutionary.
[09:01] ---
    The day will come when you will be
    forced to make a critical selection.
[09:07] ---
    What must I do...?
[09:10] ---
    In order to make the right choice?
[09:11] ---
    In my dream, you traveled the world,
    writing books.
[09:17] ---
    *It can't be...
    If this is the prophecy...
[09:21] ---
    I wish to go back and face them
    in order to confirm something...
[09:26] ---
    You two please go back.
[09:28] ---
    What?!
[09:29] ---
    Absolutely not! You will be killed
    if you go out again!
[09:33] ---
    They have more eyes,
[09:34] ---
    and they will not fall
    for the barrier trap twice!
[09:38] ---
    They're not on to us in here yet.
[09:42] ---
    This is our only chance to
    make a run for it!
[09:44] ---
    I may be killed if I go out there...
[09:48] ---
    But I may be able to learn
    the truth about them.
[09:52] ---
    If I let this chance slip by,
[09:54] ---
    I don't think there's anyone else
    who could get as close to Pain.
[09:58] ---
    This is our only chance to
    uncover the truth...
[10:02] ---
    Plus...
[10:04] ---
    This is the time for selection
    that the Great Lord Elder prophesied!
[10:09] ---
    Boss and Ma'am...
[10:10] ---
    please take the intel on Pain
    we've gathered so far,
[10:12] ---
    as well as this corpse and go back.
[10:16] ---
    And please tell Tsunade...
[10:17] ---
    Ma should be enough for that.
[10:21] ---
    But...
[10:22] ---
    Just return by dinnertime.
[10:24] ---
    Yup... When we're done here,
    I'll bring Jiraiya-boy on over with me.
[10:35] ---
    Thank you...
[11:11] ---
    It's just as I thought!
[11:18] ---
    *They're all ninjas that
    I've encountered before!
[11:33] ---
    That's it!
[11:34] ---
    I've figured out who Pain is!
[11:42] ---
    My throat...
[11:43] ---
    Jiraiya-boy!
[11:44] ---
    You were too late in figuring it out...
[11:58] ---
    *I must let Boss know...about
    Pain's true identity.
[12:03] ---
    Hang in there, Jiraiya-boy!
[12:08] ---
    *It's no good...
    My throat has been crushed.
[12:13] ---
    Damn it... At this rate...
[12:19] ---
    It's useless... I'm passing out...
[12:23] ---
    Am I...going to die?
[12:29] ---
    Have I failed...?
[12:44] ---
    It's not how you live,
[12:47] ---
    *but how you die in
    the ninja world...
[12:50] ---
    *A ninja's life is not measured
    by how they lived
[12:54] ---
    *but rather what they managed
    to accomplish before their death.
[12:59] ---
    *Looking back, my life has
    been nothing but failures...
[13:05] ---
    Continually rejected by Tsunade...
[13:08] ---
    Unable to stop my friend...
[13:11] ---
    *And unable to protect either
    my student or my mentor...
[13:16] ---
    *Compared to the great deeds
    of the Hokage,
[13:19] ---
    *my actions are trifling,
    insignificant things indeed.
[13:25] ---
    *I wish I could have died like
    each of the Hokage.
[13:30] ---
    *A tale is only good as
    its final turn of events, the plot twist.
[13:36] ---
    *Failures must be seen
    as mere amusements!
[13:38] ---
    *They are trials, which hone your skills.
    I lived believing that...
[13:43] ---
    *And in return, I swore I would
    accomplish a deed so great
[13:46] ---
    *that it would obliterate all
    of my failures...
[13:50] ---
    And I'd die a splendid ninja!
[13:52] ---
    *At least, that's how it
    was supposed to go...
[13:56] ---
    But...with my plot twist...
[13:59] ---
    My tale, ending like this...
[14:02] ---
    *The Great Lord Elder prophesied that
    I would guide that revolutionary.
[14:08] ---
    *A person who will make
    a great choice
[14:10] ---
    *that will bring either stability
    or destruction to the ninja world.
[14:17] ---
    *I thought I would defeat Pain,
    stop the Akatsuki,
[14:20] ---
    *and save the ninja world
    from destruction...
[14:22] ---
    But in the end, I failed in
    that selection too.
[14:26] ---
    How pitiful...
[14:28] ---
    that this will be the twist to
    
"The Tale of Jiraiya the Gallant."

[14:34] ---
    What a worthless story...
[14:37] ---
    No, I don't think so.
    This tale is wonderful!
[14:42] ---
    Each chapter reads like one of
    your numerous legendary exploits.
[14:46] ---
    It's almost like an autobiography.
[14:49] ---
    The main character of this book...
[14:51] ---
    I thought his determination to
    never give up was really cool...
[14:55] ---
    He's a lot like you, Sensei.
[14:58] ---
    Y-You think so...?
[15:00] ---
    So I was thinking.
[15:02] ---
    Huh?
[15:03] ---
    I really hope my unborn child
[15:05] ---
    can become a ninja just
    like this main character!
[15:09] ---
    Which is why I'd like your permission
    to name my son after him.
[15:14] ---
    H-Hey! Are you sure?
[15:17] ---
    It's just a random name that
    I thought up while eating ramen.
[15:20] ---
    Naruto...
[15:24] ---
    It's a wonderful name.
[15:29] ---
    Kushina...
[15:34] ---
    Cripes...
    So that makes me his godfather?
[15:37] ---
    Are you really sure about this?
[15:40] ---
    You are my sensei!
[15:42] ---
    And you are a great ninja who possesses
    the true talent of a ninja!
[15:45] ---
    There's no other like you.
[15:49] ---
    Yes...
[15:51] ---
    That's right...
[15:53] ---
    I gave that child...
[15:57] ---
    I'm gonna become the Hokage!
[16:00] ---
    A Hokage that surpasses
    all previous Hokage!
[16:05] ---
    I never go back on my word...
    That's my ninja way!
[16:14] ---
    Naruto...
[16:17] ---
    Now that I think about it, Naruto,
[16:18] ---
    *you are just like that
    novel's main character.
[16:22] ---
    *You've inherited Minato and
    Kushina's wishes, their hopes...
[16:29] ---
    And yet...I...
[16:32] ---
    You are my sensei!
[16:34] ---
    And you are a great ninja who
    possesses the true talent of a ninja!
[16:37] ---
    There's no other like you.
[16:41] ---
    A ninja is one who endures,
    one who stands brave.
[16:47] ---
    Let me teach you one thing...
[16:49] ---
    The most important attribute
    of a ninja
[16:52] ---
    is not the number of jutsu he masters.
[16:55] ---
    The most important thing is...
[16:58] ---
    the guts to never give up!
[17:02] ---
    *Never go back on your word
    and never give up...
[17:09] ---
    Naruto, if that is your ninja way...
[17:12] ---
    Then as your mentor...
[17:15] ---
    I have no business whining.
[17:18] ---
    For everyone knows that a student
    inherits his ninja way from his teacher!
[17:24] ---
    Isn't that so, Naruto?!
[17:30] ---
    He fought his way back by sheer will?!
[17:35] ---
    Jiraiya-boy!
[17:39] ---
    I was sure his heart had stopped.
[17:44] ---
    Got it!
[17:54] ---
    Never give up...
[17:56] ---
    That was the true choice
    I was supposed to make!
[18:02] ---
    Quite obstinate, isn't he?
[18:05] ---
    Let's finish him off.
[18:07] ---
    All right! Message received!
[18:11] ---
    A dying message...
    He wrote it in code, eh?
[18:18] ---
    Naruto... You are the child of prophecy,
    I'm sure of it now.
[18:24] ---
    I entrust you with the rest!
[18:40] ---
    The frog...got away.
[18:49] ---
    
"The Tale of Jiraiya the Gallant"...

[18:53] ---
    Now it'll end a bit better I hope.
[18:57] ---
    The final chapter will be...
[18:59] ---
    
"The Frog in the Well Drifts
    Into the Great Ocean."
[19:07] ---
    Not bad... Not bad at all...
[19:12] ---
    Now... It's about time
    I put down my pen...
[19:17] ---
    Ah, that's right!
    What should I name the sequel?
[19:24] ---
    Let's see...
[19:28] ---
    
"The Tale of Naruto Uzumaki."

[19:32] ---
    Yes... That has a nice ring to it...
[22:36] ---
    Itachi Uchiha...
    You haven't changed, have you?
    
    
[22:40] ---
    But I'm no longer the same as before.
    
    
[22:43] ---
    You don't know anything about me...
    
    
[22:47] ---
    Of the hatred I carry towards you...
    
    
[22:50] ---
    And how it helped me
    become stronger...
    
    
[22:54] ---
    Next time on Naruto Shippuden:
    "Banquet Invitation"
    
    
[22:58] ---
    Don't miss it!
