    Could go both ways.

    Whoops! I meant to say itachi.

    You sure? hmm You maybe right. He did get kim to worship him. (poor kim) I'm gonna have to go back and check again.

    Aha, liked this chapter. Pretty good fight in my opinion.

    But alas, woe to ye who favored Itachi, for it appears that he is dead...

    Fake, but I thought I'd link it anyway. I'd be all for Kisame playing a bigger part though.

    Meh, not much worth mentioning in the new chapter, but it ends with one hell of a cliffhanger...

    So, who's with the 'Tobi=Obito'-theory?

    wouldn't it be awesome if it was actually Itachi? Sasuke's face crumbling into insanity would sure make my day...

    the "Tobito" theory makes sense seeing as Madara acts like a non-composite shell of energy, or basically, a spirit. It's the only way to explain how he moves at the speed of light and how he has obito's body.

    I didn't notice that...I still stand by my theory though. the speed at which he traveled would have strained his body to the max. Everyone should know that the faster you move over a distance, the greater the force on your body.

    the only way i see him withstanding the pressure is by being an intelligent mass of energy.

    That's a pretty limited way of thinking when you're looking at a world full of ninja that can control a form of energy that lets them manipulate the elements.

    true, but are they themselves pure manifestations of energy? can they, like Madara, turn their true body (not clones) incorporeal, intangible substance, especially at will and in an instant?

    We're still not sure how powerful things like seals are. After all, the hiraishin allowed the Yondaime to instantly travel to wherever he placed his seal. It's possible that he's just using something like a seal to modify his body.

    We don't know everything about how chakra can be used, we don't know its limits.

    Edit: Plus, there can be any number of idiotic bloodline abilities that can be used to introduce a new awesome power.

    Well just wanted to throw this out for the Tobi=Obito theorists.

    In a long ago interview Kishi said one of his favorite manga's was Dragon Ball Z and it still helps to inspired him while writing. Now I think it's fair to say DBZ had it's fair share of resurrecting old characters, so it is a strong possibility.

    In the Narutoverse, seals are meant to contain objects of various nature, from an explosion (the seals hold gunpowder) to the Cursed Seal (holds a special enzyme that supercharges chakra) to the Shiki Fujin (holds the Kyuubi). Even the Hiraishin, which I believe seals the Yondai into a pocket dimension. Every seal in Naruto is meant to hold something.

    What you are saying is that Madara could have learned how to seal his physical body while keep his spirit in the real world. It's plausible but it is not objecting against my theory. I could even say it's helping it.

    Yes we do. As shown by the Uchihas, Yondai, the Bijuus, and even Naruto, chakra can do ANYTHING one has in mind. From summoning a god, THE Death God, to sealing what is said to be the most powerful entity in the verse, to controlling minds, bodies, and nature, even space and time, we see that chakra has no set limits. The only limit is on the person, not chakra: that either you don't have enough chakra or the correct method to perform the technique you want.

    that's true. guess we'll have to what and see...

    that's why i asked would awesome if Tobito was Itachi. and because i want to see Sasuke descend into pure insanity...but it's not gonna happen. a man can dream though.

    I just had a truly epic thought! Kabuchimaru, in all his epicness, using the Edo Tensai to bring back Itachi to fight Sasuke :D. I so want to see that now.

    Kishi has to MEGA-GIMP Itachi so that someone could kill him in the first place, there's no way in hell that he'd ever bring him back as a self-regenerating immortal scion of death.

    All I want to know is why Naruto isn't the main character in this manga any more. I mean, it has been headed that way for awhile, but this most recent chapter basically seals it.

    Gah.

    What I wonder the most about is why Tobi wanted to collect Itachi's body? Could it be that he, like Orochimaru, needs a new body once in a while? As long as it doesn't have to do with giving Sasuke the mangekyo sharingan I'll be happy.

    ...Trying to apply the laws of physics to everything in Naruto is plain stupid. Just stop before you make my brain hurt any more.

    As for seals and Minato's technique, the popular theory is that they summon him to their(seals) location. I have no idea if that has been mentioned in canon or in an interview, but it's the most widely used explanation. I could care less how it works, as long as it sounds somewhat believable.

    And as for seals only locking shit up, are you saying that the summoned beasts are all locked in some sort of limbo? Because if that's the case, you'd think they'd want to be summoned and not bitch about it like some do...
    I know you said it's fake, but I've always assumed that Sandaime 'God of Shinobi' Hokage as being the 'strongest'. I use the word strongest loosely. I know alot of characters call Minato great but most come from people who would have trouble being unbiased when it comes to him.

    Meh.

    Love the extra screen-time for Zetsu. Hope he gets to kick some ass and doesn't get nerfed.

    Here's a picture from the latest Naruto Manga that I've read. Take a look at it. It seems to disprove that Obito theory of everyones.

    Look down at the bottom and you'll see what I'm talking about. Kishi seems to make it pretty clear to me.
