Pein was a Hidden Rain missing-nin who was rumored to come from the Fuuma clan, note that this is a different clan than the one located in the Rice Field country. During the early age Pein was also known as Nagato. Nagato is very sensitive and cry alot. Yahiko, Konan and Nagato is left orphaned as their parent passed away by one of Amegakures wars, forcing them to fend for themselves. The three eventually find Jiraiya who later take them as student and taught them the basic of ninjutsu for three years.
