    At the end of it (or near abouts) Itachi says something like "I hope you wont have to use the power" that he had just given Naruto.

    K quick edit, its no where near the end XD, heres a link to refresh the memory.
    http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/403/08/

    Why would Naruto having to use his new genjutsu abilities, or being able to control the nine tails with no side effects (being beserker anyways) be a bad thing in any way?

    Edit: Oooh! If Naruto gets any new jutsu like some have mentioned (though I doubt thats what happens), it would be cool if Naruto got the clone bomb one!

    True enough, who cares if the Sharingan can tell clones apart if they can explode? Plus Sasuke doesn't have nearly the amount of chakra Naruto has so it would be basically a battle of attrition... One which I'd give to the guy with a demon healing him.

    I was bored and started reading the 4 tails kyuubi VS oro and I got to the part where yamato makes that mokuton bushin and 4tails kyuubi makes the blood/chakra body thingy to attack. If he does get mokuton...the entire kyuubi fighting style would work perfectly.

    Kyuubi blood/chakra thingy:

    Yamato mokuton bushine:

    If naruto can learn to do that really fast in combat...he would be pure win. I'm willing to say that the first would off used a similar style of combat.

    I´ve read this oneshot...was a good one.

    Itachi said something like "I hope you won´t need to use this power" so it is either bad because it only activates when the shit really hits the fan aka Sasuke goes beserk on Konoha/Akatsuki gets him or something will happen when he uses this "power"...maybe he goes nutty as a fruitcake, emotionally cold as stone or Kyuubi gets some influence or it will damage his body and/or mind and/or Chakra?

    I hope it change his personality a little bit...makes him grow up like he was supposed to after the time skip and a little bit more...open to other methods of getting what you want (aka killing when it is useful, like in Sasuke´s case *wink*).

    At least we get to see Naruto again after such a long, long, long, long, long time in which we didn´t see a hair of him and if I remember correctly, the manga and anime was named "Naruto" so, maybe he should appear from time to time and do something?

    Well, it is getting more interesting now, finally!

    On that note, the power better not be a one shot where Naruto can't control what he's doing. Like Sasuke and the Amaterasu against tobi.

    Yeah, that would be awful!
    It was bad enough that Naruto can´t use his super-rasengan (Odamarasengan, right?) without frying his arm, but give him a power, again, and take it from him, again, would be really bad...
    some fans out there are still out for Kishi´s blood because of Sasuke´s and Sakura´s strength and Naruto´s right now not existing powers.

    Itachi could be referring to not wanting Naruto to use the power against Sasuke, as it's primary function might be to ass-rape the Sharingan. Would make sense, seeing as Itachi is uber-loyal to Konoha, but still wants to protect his lil bro.

    What could ass-rape the sharingan though? I mean after all this hyping up about the thing and new abilties coming left right and centre...

    Not sure about the Lil' bro/Konoha thing, I mean so far Itachi has managed to 'guess' all thats happend, what with Sasuke meeting Madara and now going up against Konoha. And in the past hes stuck with Sasuke over Konoha, why would that change?
    Not sure if i got across what I mean....meh

    Ghosts idea of Mokuton is pretty cool, though why Itachi would have access to the Uchiha's rivals, btw. what were they called again??

    On a less sane note, found this on the net :p, dated March 28, 2006.

    Now we know how Kishimoto got his idea for Sasuke new Sharigan from!
    Sneaky little bastard. Good one:p

    I doubt Naruto´s new ominous power will be a long lost Kekkei Genkei, Mokuten would be cool, but hell to explain how he got that one.
    And I always thought Naruto (and Lee) represent the We-are-hard-workers-not-a-genius-nor do-we-have-a-bloodlinelimit-party.

    Determination over natural luck at the gene pool roulette, because all non-genius need an ego boost and Naruto stood at the beginning of the manga for the hope to reach everything when you try hard enough.

    Would be seriously fucked up if he would get all this (Bloodline etc.) now and the moral of the manga would be: "If you aren´t born in the right family or with the right natural genius and haven´t a super-strong-villain-turned-not-so-bad-as-all-thought to give you a power boost, you are screwed in life."

    but don't you see? that's been the whole theme of Naruto so far. for every non-bloodline powerful ninja, there's always an even more powerful bloodline ninja. We all thought that the Yondaime was the freaking epitome of being a ninja, unparalleled power only surpassed by his intelligence. But low and behold, we now have Madara, who's Sharingan can summon and suppress the almighty Kyuubi AND who's space-time jutsu is better than Hiraishin.

    Want more proof? Hanzo, who pawns the Sannin, lets them go at his mercy, and gave them their legendary name, is killed by Pein, who as we all know has the supposed most powerful doujutsu in the world.

    Need more? Neji and Sasuke. Out of ELEVEN prominent genins and a Jinchuriki, those two are the only ones that have bloodlines (not sure if the Inuzukas and the Aburames count). Now after PTS, look where they are. Neji is already a jounin while everyone else is at least chunin (Naruto may be official ranked genin, but skillwise i think he barely scraps by as chunin material). And Sasuke, he swats S-Class nins around like Serena Williams to tennis ball.

    EDIT: I forgot about Hinata for a moment. Hmmm, all i can say is she's an oddball meant to play the stereotypical role of a meek, weak girl that wishes to get stronger and loves the main character. Otherwise there's no reason she shouldn't be stronger than Neji. She's the Hyuuga heir. That means the best tutors in ANYTHING are available to her. Like I said, she's an oddball, a very cute oddball...:):D:whipped: everyone knows it's always the quiet ones...

    @Mage Ronin:
    You know what really sad is? You are probably right in all what you said...

    The powersystem in naruto was always fucked up, even long before the Time skip! Look at Kabuto/Kakashi/Itachi/Kisame...etc.
    And the Sannin fight and Sakura who beats a S-class Nukenin who killed the strongest Kazekage (before Gaara) with help, but hey, after only two and a half years of training, she is so powerful and a super medicnin to boot!
    ...I always thought one would need more time than 2 1/2 years...
    Orochimaru feared Itachi...Itachi and Kisame feared Jiraya, Jiraya and Tsunade were nearly beaten by Orochimaru...very logical.
    And the Sound five ought to be the elite..put was taken out of the game by some Gennin...oh, and ONE Chuunin.

    *shrug*
    One shouldn´t think too much about these things and the series makes more sense...

    In all fairness to Sasori he didn't really lose to Sakura. He lost to Chiyo, who in my opinion, was the superior ninja out of all of them. Sakura was being controlled by Chiyo most of the match with chakra strings, without that she would have been killed multiple times. Most she did was break his first puppet and Sandaime puppet (note: while being controlled by Chiyo).

    I never really had a problem with that one, I always thought that the only reason that they got beaten was a mixture of bad luck and that the Sound five were facing people whom could exploit their (Sound 5's) weakness'. Like Neji and the Spider man.

    Also that all the people whom fought were injured (except Shikamarus finger :p) pretty badly because they had to do kamikaze like techniques (Choji and his drugs).

    TBH, I've always hated Sakura; so anything I say about her is gonna be baised and along the lines of 'DIE! BITCH DIE!?!' :rolleyes:. And the fact that there is going to be a Sakura arc where she'll become stronger than Naruto (well she probably already is, because we all know that Naruto is just a crappy sub character in all this) is gonna suck.

    i think Kishi made a unstable power system for a reason: they are ninjas. They have multitudes of skills, abilities, powers and ways to exploit weaknesses and defeat or kill someone.

    Sure you would expect a Chunin to defeat any Genin that foolishly challenges him, right? But given the right moment and the right technique, said Genin can kill the Chunin. That's the whole point of the Bell test, in fact: three fresh out of school genin CAN outmanuver jounin given the right situations. Better yet, Yondaime's crowning achievement: a mere human that defeats the strongest of the Bijuus.

    That's what Kishi wants to point out, the realism of being a ninja, living in an often chaotic world where your best friend is your enemy and your worst enemy is your friend. a world where it's not the strongest that wins, it's the smartest. But sadly, Kishi is too inconsistent with his battles (come on, how does Kakuzu, after pawning Kakashi and Team 10 fall for a basic switcharoo? not only that, how does he not HEAR the whine of the Rasenshuriken as Naruto does the switch?), plot, and back story so all what i've said is bullshit. Plus, he seems to have fallen in love with the Sharingan with as many details he puts in it.

    the drawback with the system that we often assume rank to mean greater power which while reasonable is not true. Rank in the Naruto ninja system is more about intelligence with the power to back it up (or in Naruto's case, a shitload of dumb luck). Case in point would be Shikamaru.
