[ShinigamiGuts]

the author could have skipped all this training bullshit by just giving him the ability to control his fox demon

[Starnum]

That's a good theory, Tempz. Also, controlling Kyubi can't be easy, so he'd have to train either way, though I do think it'd be sick if he learned how to control Kyubi like Killer Bee controls his bijuu.

[ShinigamiGuts]

Killer bee has so much control of it, it can leave his body and he can ride it

[Starnum]

Yeah, can you imagine if Naruto could do that? That'd be crazy. I'd take him just being able to control Kyubi's full chakra. Just imagine full nine tails Kyubi-Naruto, with complete control of his actions. Now that would be a power and level of skill worthy of a Hokage.

I'm just looking forward to seeing Tsunade throw down on Pain. Man, Naruto better get back in time to protect her, or something, because I don't want the old girl to die. Who knows, maybe they won't need Naruto. >.>

Actually sorry that would be ghey! Might as well just give Naruto a sharingan at that point. That is the ultimate purpose of the sharingan. Or so we have been told.

[dialdfordesi]

Even if Tsunade does get jacked up, she has that one ability that makes her age but heals her completely.

[papasith]

i for one am happy that the author is takeing some big steps in the story by killing off some vital charcaters

i also agree that naruto will proboly use his shadow clones to gather nature energy, but wouldn't it be awsome if he had to get the clone to piggy back ride on him to get it done. just pictures that for a bit...

I honestly doubt kakashi is dead

[Starnum]

Yeah, I'm still not convinced that Kakashi is dead, but we'll see.

[papasith]

It is likely that he is still alive, given the author does seem to like to keep certain people around. (at least from my opinion)
although i noticed he had the slug from tsunade on his sholder in the last volume, and i forget what purpose they served.

did they just allow her to communicate, or did they heal the person they where on ect.?

[Starnum]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure they heal whoever they're touching. If Kakashi was, let's call it "fully dead", for lack of a better term, then I would imagine the slug wouldn't have any effect. However, despite the fact that Kakashi was speaking with his dead father, I don't think he was fully dead. Perhaps he was having an out of body experience, and now he's going to be healed by the slug. Either that or it really is too late and he's dead, but this Naruto, so I never believe it until they have a ceremony. Well I don't think they've had a funeral for Jiraiya yet, but it's pretty conclusive at this point, and they have acknowledged it. Until they do the same with Kakashi or anyone else, I never buy it. Naruto isn't like some other manga like Berserk or Gantz, where when a person appears to die, they're really dead, heh.

[ShinigamiGuts]

It'd be awesome if pain could control jariya. Watch him be the last body

[Starnum]

Okay, now that would be insane. I gotta give you credit for that one. Now you're getting creative. It would be like defiling his body, but I wouldn't necessarily be against seeing that. Heh, it'd make for interesting character reactions and another awesome fight.

[ShinigamiGuts]

Isn't that pains power though? He can revive dead bodies to be under his control.
Gantz = pain, he's just a shriveled old man stuck in a cave curled into a ball controlling people with chakra.

[Tempz]

Would be cool if like.. Pain replaces one if his bodies with Kakashi's and we get to see Naruto vs Kakashi or something crazy like that.

[ShinigamiGuts]

Or replaces it with sakura and he turns this whole manga into a hentai manga

[Grahf]

Negative.

edit: after reading a spoiler for this week its official. The rank of Yondaime is a joke now.

Uh, that seems a bit extreme.

[spoiler]Ha! I can't believe Konohamaru actually learned the Rasengan from Naruto. Sure that was one of my guesses, but I wasn't serious! XD Hell, he already knows how to use bunshin as well. He's one tough genin, but he is a Sarutobi.[/spoiler]

Oh yeah, and about the sharingan controlling Kyubi, I think the Sharingan can control just about anything. It's not specifically meant to control Kyubi, it just gives them the ability to mimic any jutsu, kind of like the rin'negan. The bloodline techniques are crazy enough as it is, and that's not counting the ones that are Dojutsu (eye techniques). So somehow that gives the sharingan users control over the bijuu or whatever, but that's nothing like a 9-tailed Kyubi-Naruto in complete control. It'd be similar to if Naruto summoned Kyubi and controlled him like Killer Bee does with his bijuu, but it's still a totally different technique though. Rather, for a jinchuriki it wouldn't be so much a technique as it would be forming a pact with your bijuu. I don't know if Naruto could ever control Kyubi though, so that's why I suggested the full powered sentient 9-tails Kyubi-Naruto transformation. Yeah, he'd be insanely powerful, but that could be kind of badass, and it's theoretically possible, heh. I wants more DBZ's in my Narutoes!1!

[spoiler]Heh, I'm just kidding, but with Konohamaru bustin' out Rasengans now, who knows what could happen. [/spoiler]

I can't help but imagine Hokage Naruto at full power though, and it just seems to have a certain level of insanity and prestige. I'd hate to think he's gonna have to take shortcuts his whole life. Alternatively though, about a way for him to gather natural energy. Some of you said he'd use a bunshin to do it, but he could also use the bunshin as a distraction and then come out with the sage arts as a surprise. Just an idea.

[ShinigamiGuts]

this chapter was gayer than a bag of dicks

[Grahf]

Extreme yes. Though it fits in this case. Of all the techniques availible he gives him that??? Come on if he is a Sarutobi have him do a move in memory of his Grandfather or Uncle (assuming Azuma was his uncle). To have yet another person able to use a move that took the Yondaime years to not perfect his just dragging his name through the mud in my opinion. Next Sasuke will being doing it.

Back to that topic of those eyes. It was specifically stated that the latter form of the eye was for control of the 9 tails. I would rule that out if Naruto had nothing else besides that but he has his contract with the Toads as a fall back. I highly doubt we will be seeing any kind of prolonged summoning (if any) of the 9 tails from Naruto. We already know that he could be brought back to life if it is extracted from him.

Anyway aside from that nonsense with Konohamaru I thought it was a good chapter.

[ShinigamiGuts]

Next naruto is gonna teach konhomaru how to use the flash technique

Wow, that is pretty gay, lol.

Okay, I'll give you that. It's annoying as hell that Naruto was even able to teach Konohamaru the technique. It's just like when Goten and Chibi Trunks were able to go SSJ at such a young age. The only thing is, Naruto was the same age as Konohamaru when he learned it, but he's a freakin' jinchuriki for goodness sake. Anyway, it does kind of seem like a joke, but I guess what's done is done. >.>

Yeah, they did say the Sharingan is meant to control Kyubi, but that's about as lame as Konohamaru using a Rasengan, IMO. Anyway, it's whatever, I'm not talking about summoning Kyubi anyway. Yes, Naruto does have his toad summonings, and those are badass. If Naruto could summon Kyubi and control him, then it would be similar to him having the Sharingan, yes. I wasn't talking about that though. Okay, you know how Naruto transforms and becomes cloaked in a visage of Kyubi? They call it Kyubi-Naruto, and he grows fox tails. Remember how after he grew only three tails he would lose control and go berserk? Well imagine if he learned how to control that power, and was able to grow all nine tails as Kyubi-Naruto. Then he would be insanely powerful and have his wits about him. That's kind of a stretch though, but hell if Konohamaru can use the Rasengan now, who knows? Anyway, even if Naruto could somehow manages to master that form, he doesn't really need to now because he has Sage Arts. So I imagine he'll just continue to focus on that. It was just a crazy idea I had, and you might think it's stupid sounding, but that's fine. It may be just a stupid theory I had or whatever, but I wouldn't really compare it to Naruto having a Sharingan of his own, which is my point. Yeah, If Naruto were to summon Kyubi like Killer Bee does with his bijuu, that'd be like Naruto having the Sharingan since Kyubi is supposed to be uncontrollable. Super Kyubi-Naruto is different, however, but probably equally as ridiculous.

Yeah, it would have been way cooler if Naruto had taught Konohamaru one of the Sarutobi techniques. Hell, he could have shown him how to use Asuma's fighting knives, and how to channel his ki through them. Asuma did teach that technique to Naruto, after all. The rest of the chapter after that was pretty decent. I hope Naruto goes crazy on Pain's face.

Next naruto is gonna teach konhomaru how to use the flash technique

Heh, he's gonna have to learn how to do it himself first.

[Grahf]

Yeah, they did say the Sharingan is meant to control Kyubi, but that's about as lame as Konohamaru using a Rasengan, IMO.

That about sums it up for me.

[Deathbringer]

"Konohamaru: Getting....killed....by....very strong...evil ninja....must thing.....about tits!

Konohamaru: And pussy!

Konohamaru: And tits again!

Konohamaru: Get myself a generic shadow clone/rasengan combo....

Konohamaru: There! Naruto isn´t the only one with shitty fights in part 2!"

Boy, that was fucking stupid.

Naruto´s fanservice was pretty sweet though....

...

Anyways...about Pain, it looks like those who predicted that the it was the chakra sticks that animated the Pain bodies were right.

What i didn´t knew it was that the one controlling the bodies (Nagato) has to be in a relative close range to be able to control them, which explains why Animal pain went limp after Jiraya managed to teleport him to the frog zone, not because he was cut in half but because he got out of Nagato´s controlling range, makes sense.

To bad for Sizuno (Or whatever her name is), she´s probably a goner. Tsunade´s is definitly going to die anyway so it seems fitting.

[Grahf]

[spoiler]A sub-par episode followed up with a great fucking chapter. Fucking great chapter oooooo man. But there was one panel at the end. What the hell was it. It looked like Yondiames coat combined with Jiraiya's scroll, Naruto's new garb or Jiraiya's pain garb.[/spoiler]

Pain FTW!!
