S1 E15Unfinished Business

Someone has circumvented my rain. From the feel of this chakra, he's very powerful.

Way back then you should have done what Orochimaru suggested. Isn't that what you're thinking now? [flashes back to his words] Back then you saved the three of us from that fate instead. But it's too late now. We wholeheartedly embraced his ideology and we have now made our move.

I have no regrets about letting the three of you live, no matter how this may end. I'm just very sad. The reason I taught you all ninjutsu was to enable you to survive those harsh times. You were all undoubtedly my students and I know the world is a cruel place, but to attack me without even so much as a greeting, well that's just too sad. For a few years after our time together I heard your names mentioned here and there. You made a reputation for yourselves, fighting for hire in a few conflicts, but then...

You know nothing about what happened to us afterward, sensei.

No I don't, that's quite apparent. But why all this stuff with the Akatsuki? What the Akatsuki is doing now is simply wrong!

[arriving] This is what I thought through on my own. And that is that... Jiraiya-sensei.

Well your appearance has changed quite a bit, but those eyes... [flashes back to the Rinnegan's awakening] So I guess you're the one who became Pain... Nagato. It appears you've strayed from the path of goodness. What HAPPENED to you?

NNagato

You don't need to know. After all you're just an outsider.

Nothing happened. Nothing except for the war. Too many people died in this land. All that pain forced me to grow up.

What does that mean?

That even ignorant, foolish children will grow up in the face of pain until their thoughts and beliefs are the same as adults.

But abandoning one's love for his friends and fellow man? Is that really what it means to become an adult?

Oh sensei, you're still merely a man. However I, mired in endless Pain, have matured and become much more than a man.

What are you saying?

Yes, I've grown from a man... to a god. And since I'm a god, all my words and thoughts have become absolute. Poor sensei, you're still human. It's not your fault if you don't understand what I'm saying.

Have you really become that twisted?

Things that I couldn't see when I was human are clear to me now that I'm a god. And being a god, I realize there are things I can do which mortal men can never dream of. Or to put it more simply I have evolved beyond that.

Just what are you planning to do?

At last I'm going to put an end to this senseless war riddled world. This will be my sacred deed.

[as he speaks he flashes back to their past] Don't let your guard down no matter who your opponent is. Nagato, you erred in your decision. I understand. Instead of trying to rule the world through pain, I wish you'd moved past it and used your power to create peace in a positive way. For just a little while there I believed you were the one. Farewell Nagato.

Pain is actually a designation to refer to the six of us as a group.

He's not coming back. That's what I bet him before he left because he knows I never win any of my bets.

You see Yahiko's image when you look at me? You really are his former teacher. But Yahiko's been dead for quite some time. All that remains is Pain.

In the shinobi world it's not how you live but how you die. A shinobi's life is not measured by how they live, but rather it's measured by what they managed to accomplish before their death. Looking back, my life has really been full of nothing but failure. Continually rejected by Tsunade, unable to stop my friend, and unable to protect either my student or my mentor. Compared to the great deeds of the Hokage, my actions are trifling, insignificant things indeed. I wish I could have died like each of the Hokage. A tale is only as good as its final turn of events, the plot twist. And mistakes are an important part of the plot too. I lived my entire life always believing that the lessons I've learned are what honed me. I swore that I would accomplish a deed so great it would obliterate all my failures. I'd die a splendid shinobi.

Naruto, you are the child of prophecy. I'm sure of it now. I leave the rest to you!

[drowns Jiraiya] That frog, the frog got away.

[last words] The Tale of Jiraiya the Gallant. Well now it'll end a bit better I hope. The final chapter, I'll call it: frog at the bottom of the well drifts off into the great ocean. Just barely glorious, but glorious indeed. Now, I suppose it's about time I put down my pen. Oh that's right. What should I name the sequel? I wonder... Let's see... The Tale of Naruto Uzumaki. Yes, that has a nice ring to it.

How much can you see with those Sharingan of yours?

How much can I see with these? What I'm seeing right now Itachi, is you dead at my feet.

You see me dead do you? Well then... [Itachi appears behind him] Go on, make it happen.

I'm always going to be there for you, even if it's only as an obstacle for you to overcome, even if you do hate me. That's what big brothers are for.

Madara Uchiha!

One of the Founders of the Hidden Leaf Village, the man who first awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan.

[Remembering the night the Uchiha clan was killed] I was so young. I thought it was all merely an illusion. I desperately wanted to believe I was just trapped in a horrible genjutsu. But there was no mistake! I was trapped in reality! My eyes are not the same as they once were. My Sharingan can see through genjutsu!

You speak with such confidence as you always do. Well for now I'm going to take your word for it.

I'm done playing with your parlor tricks.

Confidence is fine. But Sasuke, it appears you still do not possess the same eyes as I do. So you just couldn't do it. Couldn't kill your best friend. And you dared to come here to face me with such weak resolve?

All right, then just hurry it up and try to kill me with your Mangekyo Sharingan. Or am I too strong now for you to test your capabilities against mine?

Such confidence.

Neither of them have budged for the longest time.

They're feeling each other out with their genjutsu.

The Mangekyo Sharingan are very special eyes. The moment they awaken, they progress toward darkness. And the more they're used, the faster they're sealed.
