The Kanji on (Jiraiya)s forehead is Abura, meaning oil.
Its not because hes oily middle age man. Its because hes (Gama Sennin).
In Japan, (Gama no Abura, oil of a toad) was used as medicine. Dont ask me if it was really oil of a toad. But it was supposed to be a good medicine for scratches, cuts and other things.
