The masks can fly though. Toad Tongue Bind will be useless on them. And yes, it best works in enclosed places as I said. Jiraiya using the Shadow Clone, but didn't do it against Pain (the leader of Akatsuki), but sure he'll use it in this case. Trap the masks in what? The masks don't seem to be smart, but don't average below average intelligence. They have enough common sense to do what it has to do. The masks are durable enough to withstand Choji's gigantic palm strike. The wind mask has blown down a good chunk of the forest with its giant air blast. The lightning mask produced an attack that would have killed Choji and Shikamaru, had Kakashi not countered with his Lightning Cutter. The masks together can create a gigantic fire blast that not even a water jutsu by itself could counter. Stop underrating Kakuzu's masks.

Base on feats. Kakuzu is faster than base Jiraiya has shown to be, as well in taijutsu. Jiraiya is mostly a ninjutsu user, lets be honest. It's not a big if. The Needle Jizo isn't stopping Kakuzu in his diamond armor. That's just a fact. He's has blown down giant steel doors with a barrier on it with his strength. The Rasengan has got to hit. Jiraiya isn't pulling that off in base, and even then, I'm quite sure that Kakuzu will survive. He survived being crushed by the Two-Tails and a descending Spiky Bullet Tank by Choji. A Big Ball Rasengan ought to do some major damage though. Again, those scenarios only happens in Sage Mode, and him even being able to get in Sage Mode in time is debatable.

Jiraiya won't wins this battle without Sage Mode. It's hype to believe otherwise. Based on facts.
