This episode's opening scene, in which Jiraiya meets Tsunade for the first time while training under Hiruzen, is not included in the Crunchyroll version of the episode.I’m not ashamed to admit that I adore shounen anime, but it's a rocky romance. The young Gamabunta is depicted with the scar he has in his old age, which was not present in the manga. The Sannin are depicted as beginning their training under Hiruzen during the Second Hokage's era, but in an earlier episode, Hiruzen was already the Third Hokage while training them. The war that the Sannin took part in is referred to as the Third Shinobi World War, when it was actually the Second Shinobi World War. In its initial television broadcast, this episode was preceded by a scene in which Naruto Uzumaki, wearing an outfit from Jiraiya's youth and Kabuki face paint, introduces the premise of the episodes as well as a viewer contest involving keywords that would be revealed throughout the special. This episode aired as part of a double episode special together with episode 128, which adapts several of Jiraiya's flashback scenes from the manga while adding additional material. Jiraiya, along with his teammates Orochimaru and Tsunade, join the war where they would later become known as the "Legendary Sannin". His sojourn for his apprentice, however, is cut short when the Third Shinobi World War begins and he is forced to return to Konoha, later witnessing Tsunade mourning the loss of her brother, Nawaki, who was killed in battle. He adds that he has also foreseen Jiraiya travelling around the world and writing books, and that it his destiny.Īs Jiraiya embarks on his quest, journeying around the world in search of his destiny, he comes across five shinobi who would eventually become part of the Six Paths of Pain. As a young man, he is brought before the Great Toad Sage, who tells Jiraiya that he shall one day have an apprentice - a revolutionary who will either create peace and stability or bring about destruction. Dividing his time between Konoha and Mount Myōboku, Jiraiya manages to vastly improve his skills over the following years. 
He brings Jiraiya to Fukasaku, one of the Two Great Sage Toads, who tells him that the Great Toad Sage has foretold Jiraiya's arrival and has a prophecy regarding the young shinobi, although he must first remain there and train. After a period of arduous training, Jiraiya attempts to use the Summoning Technique without having signed a blood contract with an animal, and finds himself being transported to Mount Myōboku, home of the toads.Īt Mount Myōboku, Jiraiya defeats a snake, impressing the young Gamabunta, who was surprised to find a human child. Jiraiya then decides to take his training seriously in order to impress Tsunade, whom he has a crush on, and to be able to use the Summoning Technique himself.
In order to motivate Jiraiya, Hiruzen shows him his Summoning Technique, calling forth Monkey King: Enma.
Tsunade and Orochimaru manage to retrieve both bells while Jiraiya is tied to a stump as punishment for failure.
