Naruto`s mom?
You cannot hope to build a better world without improving the individuals. To that end each of us must work for his own improvement, and at the same time share a general responsibility for all humanity, our particular duty being to aid those to whom we think we can be most useful. -Marie Curie
That's who it is, also translation is up
probably the best send off a character's gotten in the story so far.

Gaah! a whole chapter of self put down. Seems his only success in life was training the 4th Hokage. I hope Jiraiya does some mad good bye jutsu. Might as well go out in style. Leave some damage to Pein.
I find it hard to believe that Jiraiya got owned like that so badly. Supposedly the best that Konoha had at the time. I mean, other big fights were tactical on a grand scale. Pein Vs Jiraiya felt more like a pokemon battle. Very little tactics were used since most of it was spent investigating who Pein is.

I never thought Jiraiya's life would end like that, it can't be something else must happen. I had no idea Jiraiya was like that, he is about to die and the only thing that is going through his head is how much of a failure he was. I was expecting something along the lines of I did my best and what not but Wow. I never pictured him as a pessimist.
Jiraiya didn't really get owned, he may have lost but he put up one hell of a fight. There really wasn't much he could do, he tried his best but nothing he did seemed to have affected Pein whatsoever and there is no way you can defeat an opponent who is un-fazed by your best techniques. I guess what that rain-nin said in the beginning was true Pein is just on another level.

IF (and that's a large if at this point) that translation is legit it looks like I was at least partially right about Naruto playing a large role in taking down Pain or the Akatsuki.

No mistake about it, Naruto. You are the "Child of Prophecy"

I want to cry The sight of Jiraiya with blood coming from his mouth is shitty...
I still wan't to know Pain's real identity though that he has supposedly figured out in the last chapter. Hopefully he can spit that out, and I hope his body doesn't get taken over by Pain, but for some reason I have a feeling it's going to...

Man... Jiraiya's story is so sad.
I think... Naruto is going to unleash a lot of the kyuubi's power when he fights Pain... Like 5-6 tails?!?! He's going to go berserk.. Nobody will stop him! It'll be too dangerous to get near him.... All that rage he'll have vs him knowing that Pain is the one who killed Jiraiya.
Sorry about the double post. It snowed today and it's cold and my fingers are shaky and I clicked post twice.
Damn right its cold. I seriously hope that Pein doesn't take over Jiraiya's body its just not something I want to see, not to mention that if Jiraiya is one of his bodies that would make him significantly stronger but we don't know anything about Pein or his jutsus yet. I don't know about going 5-6 tails he seriously doesn't need anymore power at this point he already has more than enough, what he needs is control.
Besides we already saw the effect that using so much of the Kyuubi's power has on his body. I don't think he would be able to handle that much and even if he does all someone has to do is escape until his berserker mode is over and after that he is completely helpless. So a 'strategy' like that shouldn't work on someone/something like Pein because he already has multiple bodies and he is some how able to "revive dead ones". Its way too early for anyone to be thinking about a Pein vs Naruto battle because at this point that wouldn't even last all of two minutes but I just wanted to add my two cents.
Really something else needs to happen Jiraiya really shouldn't have to go out like this. Although I'm the one that has been saying that he should die since this arc began but I didn't expect it to be like this. I'm getting horrible Orochimaru flashbacks.

The bolded part I agree with completely. For Naruto to grow now he needs control and technique. He already has the power. Hopefully this whole "key" thing that the frog is giving him will help in some way.Originally Posted by Abdula
I also agree that Jiraiya should go out with one last bang. Whether it is an attack, or he identifies who Pain is and gives his frog buddy something to do while he holds them off. If he just dies after saying "Naruto is the chosen one, I'll leave the rest to you" I will be a tad disappointed.

Yeah control and technique add that with some strategy a lot more knowledge and some "fundamentals" and Naruto would be a complete ninja. That being said I don't think its ever going to happen.

Don't post spoiler pics right inside the thread we have to search through for scan links please, just link em, it's bad enough that we have to avoid text with spoilers in it.
I liked Naruto's mom design.
And wow at Jiraiya's monologue...

The last 20 chapters have been really great. Especially this one, but too bad Jiraya is gone.

Poor Jiraiya, he put up an awesome fight, and it took 6 people to kill him and even then he killed 4 of them (Resurrection Hax doesn't change the fact that he managed to kill them first). I assume he wrote Peins identity on Pa's back and if it wasn't Nagato I can't imagine it's anyone we've already heard of yet so I guess Tsunade or someone will be giving us some backstory on yet another old villian after the Tobi v Naruto et. al. tussle concludes.
Random comment: Kushina looks like a nun in that outfit.

Well that answers the question of who the destined child is and why Jiraiya had to travel the world and write a book. This was a really impressive chapter, the manga has really transformed itself from what it was in the beginning. So we finally get to see Naruto's family and Jiraiya was his god father and named him on top of that. I never would've imagined that and I have no idea how he some how managed to forget. I wonder how the story in his book ended.
Why hasn't anyone told Naruto any of this. I think if he knew that the fourth was his dad and Jiraiya was his god father his childhood may have been different or maybe he already knows. Anyway, I hope Naruto's character is going to get some major development soon because he has got some big shoes to fill. I just gotta say again how impressed I was while reading this chapter. I wonder what else Kishi is going to throw at us, oh right we have Tobi-Kakashi and Itachi-Sasuke coming up. I completely forgot all about that when I was reading this.
I really wonder what he wrote on the toads back besides who/what Pein is. He must have left some emotional message.
That last panel on the second page with Jiraiya lying prone with the five black blades sticking out of his back and the five Peins standing around him in black cloaks seemed really familiar to me. I could swear that I saw that exact scene somewhere else but I can't remember where. Anybody have any ideas?
-This chapter made me really angry not only because Jiraiya is dead or because of how he died but because of Naruto. I really expect more from someone who is the product of such great ninja and someone who supposedly has this great destiny to fulfill. He just doesn't have that aura around him.

Wow....just wow....
This was definitely one of the best chapters of part 2. It had to be to get me to post in here.
Great chapter dont get me wrong, but it kinda makes me wonder that if Jiraya was so key in Naruto's life before he was born...then where was he after? I mean he knew his parents, practically named in and then left Naruto to fend for himself for so long? What is that? I hope that they explain that one.
assertnfailure (7:40:03 PM): dude....your posts are a bunch of nonsense
i think thats where the whole 'journey the world and write a book" prophecy comes in...even though he wrote the original book, it seems like he felt that was insufficient.....thats the 'follows whats been said in the manga' explanation.
If you want a more realistic explanation, Kishi came up with this 2 weeks ago, so he had no idea it would turn out like this, or that jiraya would play such an important role 3 years later.
