When Pain's black rods pierced his chest, Jiraiya thought his life held nothing but regrets: he hadn't saved Nagato, protected Konoha, returned Tsunade's feelings, or lived to see Naruto become Hokage. But when he opened his eyes again, he'd returned to a week before setting out for Amegakure to find Nagato!
With the memories of his past life, he heads to Amegakure early and uses sincerity and ninjutsu to guide Nagato and his friends away from hatred. Back in Konoha, he strengthens the village's defenses, exposes Danzo's schemes, and saves its people from the agony of a massacre. He watches Naruto grow and teaches him the meaning of the "ninja way of protecting others." And this time, he dares to face his own feelings and confess to Tsunade the love he's hidden for half his life.
From the slums of Amegakure to the Hokage Tower in Konoha, from training in Mount Myōboku's sage arts to facing off against the Akatsuki, Jiraiya uses his passion and ingenuity to rewrite every regret, giving his unfinished legend the perfect ending it deserves.
