i can't wait til kisame asks why a retreat is necessary from jiraiya is necessary for itachi. THAT'LL SHUT THE ANIME NOOBS UP.

and i don't see any of the sannins dying except orochimaru and he'll die by naruto. i still think orochimaru will be naruto's final villian. i think it's totally possible since orochimaru got his body back so he is live and kicking.

EDIT: response to below:

no one is scared. itachi retreated because he and kisame were in no rush of capturing naruto not because they were afraid of jiraiya. only 'cool' thing we haven't seen jiraiya do is use the rasengan on an actual person (against that noob didn't count, it was too weak).
