Father: Three of them...? What's going on? Three pairs of Rinnegan, that's crazy...
Jiraiya: This is one of his jutsu...? There's something mighty odd going on here...
Mother: Huh, and just when it's getting to dinnertime, too...
Father: Kaa-chan! I think you should be concentrating on the opponent a little more right now!
Mother: What was that?!!
Jiraiya: I think it's about time I made my move! // I think it's time to show off the "Sennin Version"! // Forget ninjutsu... I'm using "Senjutsu"!! // Now, gaze up at my shining aura...!! // The great Jiraiya...!!
[TN: "Senjutsu" = "Sennin Techniques" (as opposed to "ninja techniques")]

Mother: Stop shouting like that, we're gonna go deaf here!!
Father: Stop shouting like that, we're gonna go deaf here!!
Jiraiya: Ughh! // Unnnghh! // (Looks like I won't be able to make a big show out of this for once...)

6
Mother: You finish this up quickly so we can go home! // I've gotta go and prepare dinner, you hear?!
Father: Kaa-chan, I really think you should be worrying about that guy's doujutsu more than about dinner! // You need to focus! It's the ultimate doujutsu, after all!
Mother: WHO CARES?!! // Don't underestimate the work that a housewife puts into thinking up the menu for each day! / You stupid fool!!
Father: Where do you get off talking like that?! / I'm saying this out of concern for you, you know?!
Jiraiya: (Ugh... and to think they go around calling ME noisy...)

7
Pein: Not bad...

8
Jiraiya: Now, then, if the two of you could stop squabbling for a moment... / It's time we took these guys out!
Mother: Huh... fine then, let's have us a little fry-up tonight! / Kid, you handle the oil, and Tou-chan can fan the flames!
Jiraiya: Here goes!
Father: Hmm!
Pein: !

9
Jiraiya: SENPOU: GOEMON!!!
[TN: Continuing the pattern, "ninpou" ("ninja art") is replaced with "senpou" ("sennin art")... and Goemon is a legendary hero. ...Go figure...]

10
Jiraiya: !

11
Jiraiya: The oil vanished?
Mother: I'd say that guy ate it.
Father: I guess he's got some tricks up his sleeve, and all.
Pein: !

12
Jiraiya: Well, then, let's see how he likes it up close and personal.

13
Jiraiya: CHOU OODAMA RASENGAN!!
[TN: "Super Great Ball Spiraling Sphere"]

14
Jiraiya: This guy...!! He just absorbed the whole jutsu...?! // Then before must have been the same...!
Mother: Behind you!
Jiraiya: !

15
Father: (Now we're the ones behind!!)
Jiraiya: (What the...? / Without even looking, he's reading my Sennin Mode attacks...?!)

16
Pein: !
Jiraiya: SENPOU: KEBARI SENBON!!
[TN: "Sennin Art: Thousand Hair Needles"]

17
Jiraiya: ?!

18
Jiraiya: (He doesn't make a single move he doesn't need to... / He could have tried to dodge, but instead he blocked it with a summon without even turning to face it... // But what's going on? It's not just a one-off, he's done it twice now... // They're not speaking a word to each other, or even making eye-contact... // Even if the three of them were all perception-types, the fact is they shouldn't be able to deal with attacks like this without at least seeing them coming. // And the Kebari Senbon is the fastest, most wide-range of all my attacks...)

19
Jiraiya: (There's no way to guard against it except to block it with a shield... just like he did.) // And he made that call without even looking at the attack...
Father: Those two aren't just ordinary bunshin, you know. // You said something odd was going on here, and that's the truth.
Jiraiya: ?
Father: Have you figured it out?
Jiraiya: Figured what out?
Father: Back there, we managed to get behind them... / We acquired our target, and attacked him straight from his blind spot. // But at that moment, one of the other two was watching what we were doing.
Jiraiya: Well, yeah, I did notice that, but...

20
Jiraiya: They haven't been calling out to each other or even making eye-contact... / There's been no sign whatsoever of them actually communicating with one another.
Father: But in that case... those eyes... All three of them have those same eyes! // If all three of them have the same eyes, and they can each see what the others are seeing...
Jiraiya: So they're all seeing the battle from three separate points at once... / Is that what's going on...?
Father: Yes... I think so. // ...But...... What exactly are they?
