Yea Jiraiya should have sensed. It literally was no way he could have snuck up on Jiraiya like that.

But, on topic. Jiraiya was able to defeat 3 of the Pain, so it no question that the Five Kage could defeat the Six Paths of Pain with mid difficulty. They have the perfect balance to counteract the Pains.

Tsunade is the perfect match for the Preta Path. No ninjutsu, pure power and taijutsu. Mei can handle the Human Path and Naraka Path. Onoki's Dust Release is the perfect answer to bypassing the durability that the Asura Path has. A can handle the Deva Path with no problem as he'd be speed blitzing him and will hardly be hurt by a regular Almighty Push. Gaara can handle the Animal Path, as his sand can cover a wide range.
