Jiraiya's arrangements are not subtle, but of course, the information that plays the biggest role is the information from Kumogakure.
Otherwise, even if he wanted to make such targeted arrangements, it would be difficult to do it in a hurry.
At this time, except for the hell realm who was hiding somewhere, the rest of the people fell into the conspiracy.
Even the Human World, who was good at close combat and could read memories and extract souls with just a tap of the head, was constantly bombarded from a distance by Kakashi's men and was unable to take the lead.
The real strength of the Six Paths of Pain is that the six are integrated into one, making up for each other's weaknesses.
Once forced to separate, the level of difficulty will immediately drop several levels.
Of course, this does not include the strongest Pain Tiandao.
Bang!
Jiraiya directly smashed through the wall and was knocked out of the Hokage Building by Pain Tiandao.
The master and apprentice wanted to meet each other, but there was no warmth at all.
Even if Jiraiya tried to persuade the other party to return from the lost path, he would get completely different answers.
Even the truths he learned from Payne's mouth left him speechless and feeling guilty.
"Yahiko... no, let's call you Nagato. I want to know the truth about Yahiko's murder. How did you learn about it? Could it be that you were taken advantage of?" Jiraiya never expected that the 'missing' group
Zang was actually killed by Nagato.
Pain Tiandao jumped out from the broken wall and heard Jiraiya's question as soon as he landed.
"Of course someone told me, and Danzo has admitted his evil deeds. Now, do you still want to cover a dead man? You are so disappointing, Mr. Jiraiya."
"I don't know what happened back then, and I don't know who was behind it. How can I talk about covering up? But the person who informed you of this so-called 'truth' must have ulterior motives!"
"Ultimate motives? That person did have ulterior motives, but it was not for me, but for you Konoha. It's funny that you still trust him so much. It's really interesting. I suddenly began to look forward to what you would do when you heard that person's name.
reaction."
Jiraiya's heart sank, and he suddenly had a bad premonition, but he still said in a deep voice: "Who is that person?"
"Today Konoha is destined to be destroyed, so why not tell you. This person is your most painful scar in Konoha, the fifth generation Hokage Shinomiya Aoba who has defected!"
As soon as these words came out, Jiraiya's eyes widened for a moment, and he fell into a trance.
That's how it turns out...
All the things he couldn't figure out at the beginning, as well as the doubts he still had that could not be solved, suddenly became clear.
I still remember that he once asked the other party about Danzo face to face.
But never would he have imagined that Danzo's death was actually related to the other party, and that Danzo was easily eliminated with the help of Akatsuki!
No wonder he couldn't find a flaw, who would have thought that one of Konoha's twin stars would actually collude with Akatsuki early on.
Nagato, who was watching Jiraiya through Pain Tiandao, felt a move in his heart. He found that this kind of 'retaliation' seemed to be more able to make Jiraiya 'understand' his pain.
"No! Shinomiya Aoyu was still a young boy at that time. Let's not talk about how he came into contact with you. How could you trust a child so easily?"
Jiraiya discovered the blind spot and asked loudly.
Why do you believe it?
Of course it's because this information came from Madara...
It was only after Qingyu defected that Nagato learned many truths from Madara.
But now Nagato will naturally not mention the existence of 'Madara', but controls Pain Tiandao to slowly say: "The basis of trust is not age, but status..."
"identity?"
Jiraiya chewed these two words carefully, and his eyes gradually revealed a look of disbelief.
Could it be that...
"It seems you have guessed it. Shinomiya Aoyu is originally a member of Akatsuki, codename...None!"
Pain's words were like a heavy hammer that directly knocked Jiraiya back a step.
The Fifth Hokage of Konoha is actually from Akatsuki?
How can this be?!
In Jiraiya's unbelievable look, Pain Tiandao continued to speak: "Nothing means non-existence. Shinomiya Aoba is the last person in Akatsuki who 'doesn't exist'. No one knows except me. His presence."
Obviously, Nagato installed this B in advance for Madara!
But the effect is surprisingly good.
The huge impact of even turning over made it impossible for Jiraiya to calm down.
The Fifth Hokage of Konoha is actually a spy hiding in the village!
And no one discovered or even suspected this person!
How terrible it is to think back now!
If the defection hadn't happened, wouldn't Akatsuki...
etc!
Obviously that person has successfully taken the position of Hokage, and then he only needs to cooperate internally and externally to completely disintegrate Konoha and achieve any purpose.
And with that person's bond with Naruto, he could take the Kyuubi away at any time.
Then why give up what is already within easy reach and defect openly in front of everyone?
No matter how you think about it, it makes no sense!
If there was no defection, why would Akatsuki bother to attack Konoha menacingly and seize the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki now?
Jiraiya, who couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he thought about it, suddenly remembered what Qingyu said to him after he came out of Daming Mansion.
"You will know why, but not now."
"Time will tell everything, I hope you won't regret the decision you made today."
And that sentence...
"I bloom in the darkness, like flowers in the dawn..."
Jiraiya murmured to himself: "Blooming in the dark...is that what it meant?"
"So does the flower in the dawn mean that you don't want to be a part of the same thing anymore, so you made the decision to defect to cut off your own escape route?"
I don't want to hurt, so I can only choose to leave.
One can imagine how much courage this requires!
Jiraiya took a deep breath and asked the last question with a complicated expression, "Is Shinomiya Aoyu's defection part of your plan?"
Pain Tiandao suddenly fell silent, and he did not answer this question.
Jiraiya smiled when he saw this, his expression was particularly relaxed, as if he had recovered from the previous series of blows.
He has roughly understood the truth of the matter.
If Aoyu were standing in front of him at this moment, he might admit that he had some regrets, but he didn't completely regret leaving the position of Hokage in Aoyu's hands.
Rather, he regrets that he could not discover Qingyu's deeply hidden pressure and confusion earlier.
If he could return to Konoha earlier and have more contact with the other party, would the final result be completely different?
Jiraiya doesn't know the answer, because there are no ifs in this world, only regrets.
