Meanwhile, in Konoha, Naruto remembers about Itachi's words about Sasuke, and about a 'secret power' that he had given him. The next day, Naruto is summoned by Tsunade in her office, where he is informed of Jiraiya's death in his battle against Pain by Fukasaku.

They inform Tsunade and Fukasaku of the message, which reads 'The Real One Is Not There'.

While taking a break, he gives Naruto the first book that Jiraiya ever wrote, which makes Naruto remember the latter bequeathing his mission for world peace to him.

Furious, she tells them that they need to believe in Naruto (and the other young ninja) as he too is a member of Konoha, just like all of them, and not a weapon. As Shizune informs Tsunade of Pain's body piercings actually being unique chakra receivers, Tsunade formulates a plan to defend Konoha but as the messenger frog is leaving to inform Naruto of the situation, it is killed by Danzo without anybody knowing.
