It's a chick.

 

Onemanga sucks. They really can't translate at all. As for kakashi...looks like he is finally dead. The fusion isn't going to work, i'm still happy about that lol still an unexpected turn so looks like he is going to have to find some other way to get stronger.

 

Lol, Naruto gets nerfed yet again. I'm not happy about it at all. Let the damned hero finally have some respectability, for fuck's sake.

 

No way, this chapter just confirmed that Kakashi was on his way back to the land of the living.

He'll have a heart to heart with dear old dad and realize he still has much to do.

Expect a "Holy fuck! What is with you peons restarting your hearts all the time!?" in chapter 427.

Kakashi hasn't told anyone about his MS or Madara's Sharingan yet. There's still much left to do and I seriously doubt Kishimoto would kill off such a beloved character as Kakashi so lamely. It wouldn't contribute anything to the growth of the younger characters since Naruto already has enough rage and Sakura... well... who really cares?

It's not a nerf.

It's going to force him into training with the Key and will, thank God, force him to discover how to use Sage Mode without a retarded frog sitting on his shoulder.

 

I liked the frog. >_>

It just annoys me that instead of getting the Kickass!Naruto I've been waiting for, I have to suffer through reading another training arc. And probably another godforsaken Sasuke arc in between.

 

Onemanga doesn't translate the manga, it hosts them.

 

Naruto has to be ready to take on Pain when he gets back, so I think it's important to make his training somewhat believable.

Also, the fact that he's going to be getting the Key now means that we won't have to suffer through one final training arc down the road.

After this is done I'd expect a Naruto kill-a-thon reminiscent of Sasuke's - without the magical escapes time and time again.

 

Highly doubt it. The fact that Kakashi had to use his eyes when he was perfectly fine caused him to be bedridden for weeks, which caused the team 7 to get a new team captian. The fact that Kakashi used his eyes while seriously weakened would surely killed him. I highly doubt even the slugs would be effective on him.

Kakashi is dead.

 

Maybe, maybe not.

 

Well I'll tell you right now, he's not dead.

And that's that.

 

You're forgetting that this is a Shōnen manga we're talking about. Kakashi will have his heart to heart with Sakumo, will realise what a pillock he was for feeling guilty over his death and will come back to be stronger than ever because of it, because the whole reason for Obito's death was because Kakashi overreacted to his father's suicide and was too late to save Rin as a result of his rules infatuation.

Still, I expect that he will be all but useless for a while after this battle and will have at least one drawback to counter his newfound strength of will, because everyone not on Sasuke's side has to have a nerf so that there isn't anyone who could actually face him and win...

In regards to Naruto though... It's good finally see the Kyuubi coming back into play again and I can see this being the reason that Naruto meets Killer Bee and makes peace with his inner demon. It does seem to fit. The Kyuubi is the reason Fukasaku can't merge with Naruto properly as it keeps rejecting him, so if Naruto can come to an agreement with it he may be able to feel the benefit of having both sage chakra and the Kyuubi's without losing his mind to the berzerker rage.

Edit: You know what, I'm actually beginning to admire how the plot for this arc is coming together. Naruto and his sage training, Killer Bee's escape, Sasuke's new obsession. It's weaving an intricate web and I think there's going to be a decent conclusion to it with another Naruto/Sasuke battle. Then it will be on to another Great War and we'll see the much darker side of the Naruto world and his rise to Hokageship... Maybe I'm being too optimistic again >_>.

 

No way Kakashi is dead. Don't forget those slugs moving about the village. I am pretty sure one of them is going to stumble across Kakashi and heal him enough to sustain him until a medic gets to him.

As for him being chakra exhausted when he was just using his Sharingan eye; remember, when that happened it was in the very beginning of the manga and the Sharingan wasn't hax yet. It still had flaws. Now, the only way the Sharingan will make a guy like Kakashi chakra exhausted is if he uses a shit load of jutsu and his Mangekyo.

On the other hand, this would be kind of cool. If both Kakashi and Tsunade die then Danzo takes over. Maybe when Naruto says he's going after Sasuke again, Danzo rips him a new asshole.

 

-.- Fuck this new chapter. Nice of Kishimoto to explain to us every result of Naruto's actions in a couple pages.

Whatever, I'm not even going to work up the effort to complain about the many problems I have with the plot dump here.

 

Very shitty chapter, and wtf is Konohamaru going to fucking do? I'm also getting tired of the Scooby doo esque hijinks going on with finding out about Pain. "I know what's going on!" "What is it?!" "I can't tell you just yet we have to instead run and meet up with someone, before I can share my ideas." For fuck sake just say it already.

 

Certainly not the best chapter that has came out recently, still I thought Hell Pain's judgment ability was pretty cool. No mention of Kakashi at all this chapter was also rather refreshing.

Oh well. I can't see Kishi trumping Naruto 419 anytime soon.

 

Hell Pain's Ability. Oh hai thar, I have another ridiculous power. Apparently I can't actually be written as a proper Evil Mastermind or even a semi-competent ninja (as opposed to powerhouse juggernaught whatever), so I've been down-graded to Uchiha Madara's blunt instrument (see: Bitch).

I can barely read canon any more. -,- Its HBP all over again.

 

Pain doesn't have the liberty to be anything but a powerhouse juggernaut, at this point.

 

>> Wouldn't it have been just a tiny bit easier to, iunno, send a recon body (cause I'm sure he has one for spying) and stake out the place to see if Naruto was there? I mean, he's confident in his abilities, I get that, but wouldn't it be less problematic in the long run?

Guy to Random Civilian X

"Have you seen a young boy with blond hair, blue eyes, and whisker marks name Uzumaki? I have a message for him."

"Oh, you mean Naruto, he usually eats lunch over in that ramen stand on Y street."

or

"You mean the Demon Brat?"

"Yes, apparently he destroyed some property and I'm here to serve him."

"Oh, he's usually over at the ramen stand on Y street."

The power of attorney is strong no matter what world you're in. =P

Or not, but it could be that easy. He didn't have to siege the place to accomplish his goals. Hell, Itachi and Kisame just waltzed right in at the beginning of the Tsunade arc without setting off this super fancy barrier bullshit.
