Samurai Champloo #13 - #15; Naruto Shippuuden #132
Samurai Champloo #13:

Fuu, Jin and Mugen came to the seaside where Mugen met his old friends who had lived with him in the island where criminals were deported and grown roots there. His female friend was delighted to see him but his foster brother was not. After some arguments, his foster brother got Mugen to help him to attack a government ship for gold. Mugen told Fuu that if he did not return, she and Jin would have to proceed Nagasaki without him. Fuu was not happy. Later, the female friend rushed to tell Fuu and Jin that Mugen’s foster brother had meant to betray Mugen again in the mission.

On the sea, Mugen’s foster brother deserted Mugen on the government ship which he shortly blew up. On the shore, the female friend, Jin and Fuu saw the explosion. Fuu was aghast.

Samurai Champloo #14:

As Mugen sank into the sea, he thought of the past when his foster brother had betrayed him before resulting to Mugen being arrested by the government and to be executed at the edge of the cliff. Mugen leaped into the sea before the officers opened fire at him. Another flash, he recalled his meeting with the female friend who had been concerned of him.

Next day, Fuu was searching the shore when she found Mugen being washed ashore. She took him back and nursed him back to health. In a cave, Mugen’s foster brother disclosed the location of the stolen gold to a young man. Meanwhile, Jin and the female friend confronted Mugen’s foster brother who told the female friend to enter a hut to meet the young man. Jin killed Mugen’s foster brother who realised both of them had been tricked by the female friend and the young man. Mugen left Fuu to find his foster brother and met Jin who told him of the female friend’s betrayal. Mugen confronted and killed the young man, leaving the female friend who still did not know location of the gold, aghast and ashamed.

Samurai Champloo #15:

Jin found a small bag of gold in a lake. Together with Mugen and Fuu, they enjoyed themselves in a town. Jin and Mugen sneaked off to a prostitute lair. The only pretty prostitute was a spy to the owner of the lair who was actually running an illegal operation beneath the building. The organisation was suspecting the female spy and also planning to kill Mugen, Jin and Fuu for finding the illegal gold. The female spy lured Mugen into cracking the illegal operation and eliminated the organization. Next day, she left off with her comrade who was rescued from the lair, leaving Mugen still unconscious under the tree. Other place, Fuu was still looking for Jin and Mugen while Jin was suffering from back ache.

Naruto Shippuuden #132: Enter - The Six Path of Pain

Jiraiya managed to stop Ma and Pa toads from bickering and concentrated fighting the three Pains. After analysing, he noticed that one of them could summon creatures while another one could absorb Chakra. He also observed that the three men possessed the same Rinnegan and suspected the real Pain was among them. Suspecting that their close coordination was due to common sharing of their views through Rinnegan, Jiraiya was forced to hide in a piping.

Within the piping, Toad Ma and Pa gathered Chakra and forced their genjutsu song to trap the three Pains while Jiraiya stabbed them. Feeling sure that Pain was dead, Jiraiya walked towards the exit only to be hit out by one of the Pains. Out in the open, six Pains leaped out to confront the injured Jiraiya who identified one of them.

OMAKE:

Naruto invited Jiraiya on Air and asked embarrassing questions like when his Icha-Icha book was coming out as well as his payment of debts. Jiraiya silently apologised to Minato for not bringing his son - Naruto up well.
