Pain stated Jman can defeat him with knowledge.
too bad he has gained equal knowledge and stopped naruto beating him the same way
looking at pain's plan and how he had to take jiraiya out away from the village (the strongest shinobi in the leaf at that time) then attack, that meant that pain didn't want jiraiya there
what bullshit. he didnt do anything to get jiraiya in his village. jiraiya went there himself of his own volition against tsunades advice (meaning tsunade fears him)
Pain STATED Jman can defeat him.
with full intel. but pain was talking about the toad genjutsu which he stopped next time someone tried to use it on him. and jiraiya doesnt have full intel. he never met naraka or deva and doesnt know their abilities.
But Pain HIMSELF stated Jiraiya is stronger then him
"if we hadnt kept our secret we might never have won". he said might not "i am weaker than you". both sides had equally little intel and pain came out on top cos he fought smarter
we saw already choji , gai , kakashi dealing with the gedo mazo
if by dealing you mean not even scratching it then yeah
the other paths will eventually get affected by CT's magnetic field , or shinra tensei.
animal can summon everyone away from deva
wich is already to be said that it can destroy an mountain
they are up against preta path so rasengans useless
pain said himself that if jiraiya woud have intel on him he had never won
So is pain a liar ???
he could be underestimating himself. he has intel on jiraiya now too
