@Jason of the Mangekyou Sasuke only got caught in the second C4 because he used Genjutsu on Deidara, which caused Deidara to use his Genjutsu counter, which caused him to bait Sasuke into getting close to him. Jiraiya doesn't have any Genjutsu other than Sound Genjutsu, which doesn't work like the Genjutsu Sasuke used on Deidara because it isn't a deceptive Genjutsu. So, Jiraiya likely wouldn't get caught in that situation.

That's the only problem. I'm not sure how Jiraiya can deal with C4. The thing is that I think he has the necessary abilities and speed to get out. The problem is he has no intelligence. So, if C4 were to go off, he would have difficulty to find out what's going on.

Also, since these guys are in character (not specified in OP, but I'm assuming), it's possible Jiraiya could beat Deidara before he uses C4, since C4 was his "trump card" ability.
