    I guess the fact that Madara is able to sense the chakra of one (admittedly powerful) shinobi in another country through the chaos of an entire shinobi army spamming jutsus left and right and multiple Bijuu attacks makes more sense than what I thought.

    Is Madara God or something? Seriously.

    Well its possible that Hashirama used a Ridiculously powerful technique or just charged himself to a Degree of power, while Tobirama Hirashined them to a Near by place.

    What is Ridiculous is Tobirama was able to tell that Madara is alive/summoned from Konoha, when Madara was standing on Top of Juubi. Maybe Tobirama thinks that anything so Foul could only be Madara's Fault.

    We don't really know where exactly they are fighting.

    It's my own fault, I glanced at this two weeks ago and assumed they meant Naruto not Jump.

    So much this. No chapter last week, and this is what comes out? I mean, what actually happened? It was just more set up (Kakashi vs Obito, Hashirama vs Madara).

    The Hokage getting to the battlefield is probably not going to happen for a while yet. Next chapter's probably going to be Kakashi vs. Obito.

    Obito has a point though. What exactly is Naruto doing to stop Obito and Madara? Simply defending his allies is not going to work forever as Madara at least, is an un-dead zombie juggernaut with endless chakra and regeneration. Naruto's going to wear out soon enough and then what? No one else there is strong enough to stand up to them.

    I guess at this point the story is just stalling until Hashirama gets there.

    Kishi will probably use the next few chapters for Kakashi v Obito and Rin flashbacks.

    Kakashi vs Obito will probably start another flashback within a flashback, and an additional 5 chapters before we get back to the hokages vs madara main plot.

    Don't know about you guys, but I don't really care about Naruto and Sasuke when GodMode!Hashirama and GodMode!Madara are about to duke it out.

    And that sentence is in a nutshell what is horribly wrong with the direction Kishimoto has taken the series in during this big final battle arc. The entire cast of characters that has been developed for the decade that this manga has gone on, has been buried and made utterly irrelevant and boring for the sake of glorifying a bunch of dead guys.

    I really should just stay out of this thread for good, because I never seem to have anything positive to say about Naruto.

    When you make jutsu that turn the Hokage Monument into a giant golem, people tend to notice. Keeping my finger's crossed that's what it going to happen too, even though know we know Godirama can make wood giants bigger than the Kyuubi.

    All I saw was them standing on their respective heads. Did I miss something?

    If that happens there will be a surge of Giant Robot Fanfics.
    People will suddenly have real reasons to write Power Rangers into Naruto.

    The Redeemed Obito was very Obvious the moment he said he can use Rinne-Tensei.
    The Fourth Might get revived. The other Three Hokages could too but I bet they will say something about Will of Fire.

    No, nothing's happened along that vein. It's just wishful thinking.

    You can't deny, though, that this is one seriously bowel-loosening picture.

    Here‘s something I‘ve been wondering about: Have we seen Naruto‘s supernatural healing in instances when he wasn‘t actively using the Kyuubi‘s chakra? Or is it simply something that fanon has blown way out of proportion?

    He says so himself that he heals fast naturally after he was beaten up by Karui, iirc (Edit: And I think he says he's typically fine the next day after being injured). And Kakashi notices how fast he heals both after stabbing his hand in the Wave arc and after fighting Kiba, the latter being whilst he was sealed. Those are the main examples that come to mind.

    It's also been shown at some point that all Uzumaki have exceptional healing abilities, if not to the extent that Naruto does when he's using Kurama's chakra. It's probably safe to assume that unless you mess an Uzumaki up really bad, they'll be alright when they wake up the next morning.

    Wanna bet that just when Naruto runs out of chakra and all seems lost, the hokages arrive and Minato (even though it makes no sense) gives Naruto a "gift" of the other 50% of Kyuubis (Yin) chakra, restoring Naruto completely.

    I will say that Juubis actions here were slightly interesting. Dunno about others, but I was disappointed in Juubis general performance since its appearance. It was hyped as somekind of "eldritch abomination" that only the original godlike Sage was able to defeat. But so far its basically spammed bijuudamas (even if larger versions) and basically done nothing interesting. Now granted, it was being controlled by both Obito and Madara but that changes nothing.

    Here however it kinda seems like Juubi is starting to act on its own. I mean he used that technique of his without anyone ordering him to do so, implying that he is starting to think on its own. I wonder how intelligent the thing is. I would not mind if it turns out that Juubi is far more powerfull/cunning than Obito&Madara ever dreamed of. Might be ironic if Juubi is actually the mastermind behind everything and its actually Obito&Madara who were the Juubis puppets in his plan to return. :)

    @Menace I don't recall this, you could have linked the info....
    Nagato's burned legs never healed and the disease I assume he suffered which left him in his current state.
    Karin's Bite marks never healed although we can say Orochimaru Fucked her up.
    Gaara - Sasori the Uzumaki?
    Tsunade has Senju and Uzumaki blood, she still heals herself.
