Naruto Chapter 478 Spoiler

Another Specialist Prediction

-Why won’t he stay down? Danzou’s taunt!

(The Chapter starts off exactly where it left off with Itachi’s presence hunting Danzou.)

Danzou: So that’s it huh? (Danzou has a short flash-back to when Sasuke was focusing his Mangekyou Sharingan intently at him right, after resurfacing from Sasuke’s assault. Immediately the scene cuts to Danzou barfing up blood. It appears that an Itachi is also behind Danzou. Apparently the rear end Itachi did a quick shank almost instantly, as the front Itachi does the same action.)

Ahhhh! So, Tsukuyomi takes my perception of Itachi’s abilities into account… What a frightening genjutsu he wields… (Danzou then collapses however, on the outside of the Tsukuyomi, it appears as though Sasuke just looked into Danzou’s eyes from a distance before passing out. The scene switches to Karin.)

Karin: What happened? He just fell over… Could it have been Sasuke’s genjutsu? (Scene switches over to Madara’s location.)

Madara: That’s all three Mangekyou Skills… This guy has no restraint… It’d been better if he had confirmed a target before wasting his strength on a decoy… (The Scene switches over to Sasuke’s location. He is holding his right eye and pants a little… Soon Sasuke hears Danzou’s voice.)

Danzou: Did you really think a genjutsu would work? (Karin and Sasuke are scared shitless. Danzou is standing behind Sasuke. Sasuke sweats heavily…) You fail because you lack… (Sasuke looks angry.)

Sasuke: Shut Up! YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT ME! (Sasuke turns around with quick reflexes, draws his katana, and then swings horizontally however, Danzou slips back and then backs up and lands distances away. The scene switches over to Karin who focuses on the area in which the Tsukuyomi was casted. She notices that a body is there, Danzou’s previous body. She soon gets shocked as it dissipates and vanishes.)

Karin: Again that has happened… (She remembers back to last chapter where Sasuke skewered Danzou… The arm of Danzou vanished into the thin air, the scene switches back to the present. Karin then yells to Sasuke at the top of her lungs.) SASUKE! DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME DEALING WITH THEM! IT’S A GENJUTSU! FIND A WAY TO BREAK IT! (Scene switches over to the battle, Danzou and Sasuke looks over to Karin.)

Danzou: Hmph… So, what of it?… It’s just a simple Genjutsu right… Just break it? Or, unless you can’t… (Sasuke looks annoyed as he hears Danzou shit from the mouth. The scene switches over to Karin.)

Karin: Don’t listen to him! You have the sharingan too! It can decipher the codes behind jutsu and give you an answer to break it… (The Scene switches to Danzou. He smirks… The Scene then switches over to Madara’s.)

Madara: Sorry girlie, it doesn’t quite work that way. (The Scene switches back to the battle.)

Danzou: So, let me hear your answer? How are you going to deal with me? Depending on how you respond I might just recommend you go back to the academy… (Sasuke get’s heated.)

Sasuke: Why you? (Sasuke grunts and holds the handle of his blade tightly.)

Danzou: But you’re smarter than that. Now that you know, you are trying your hardest to break out… BUT let me tell you it isn’t that simple… (Karin yells from afar.)

Karin: Don’t listen to him, he’s only trying to rile you up! (The Scene switches back to the battle.)

Danzou: The sharingan is only as strong as it’s wielder. Yes, what the girl said was true however, even you know there are techniques in which you can’t copy or, break down.

Sasuke: Tsk…

Danzou: In order to copy, or break down a jutsu’s composition, you must meet the qualifications and requirements for said jutsu. With that being said, the sharingan isn’t always a guarantee against an opponent who has a knack or, talent far above your own. Sometimes, not even decades of training can close such a gab…

(Danzou lifts up his arm and shows it to Sasuke.) Unless you have a genjutsu awareness and or, the chakra level to disperse a genjutsu on the level of my own as well as on the level of the many other sharingan’s, your only choice is to give up and accept your fate. Not too many things you can do in this situation.

(Danzou then goes into a thought.) Good, that girl is also in the genjutsu. Though, it wasn’t likely that she’d have the chakra to dispel the genjutsu by pouring her chakra into Sasuke. (Danzou then looks up at Madara.) Could he do it? This genjutsu is far too strong, even for him. You’d need the control of a Bijuu… (End of Danzou’s thought. The Scene switches to Karin’s location. She is focusing on Sasuke’s chakra.)

Karin: Sasuke’s chakra is changing again…. (The scene switches over to Sasuke. We see a diagram of his chakra network. Darkness is erupted all around him. The Scene switches back over to Karin.)

Karin: His chakra… It’s cursed… It’s… It’s like before… That’s it! He can break it! (The Scene switches back to Sasuke’s chakra network. Black chakra is coursing through his body… Soon the scene switches back to Sasuke’s face. He opens his eyes and he sees Danzou somewhere on a cliff. Danzou is shocked.)

Danzou: I underestimated the power of the Mangekyou Sharingan and the sinister chakra that once controlled the Kyuubi like a pet. I wouldn’t have thought he’d come this far… You are indeed the embodiment of the Uchiha bloodline. And with that, baby sitting is over… (Danzou begins to unwrap his face. The scene switches over to Madara’s location.)

Madara: Shisui’s eye!? (The Scene switches to Danzou’s location, his right eye is unveiled. The right side of his face is extremely injured. It’s decrepit and just filled with scars.

Next Time: With Sasuke dispelling Danzou’s illusion, Danzou says kid games are over… What kind of power is it that Danzou plans to unleash?!

Another Specialist Prediction

-Danzou’s Skill

(Sasuke notices Danzou’s presence as he turns around. Danzou draws out his short-sword and diagonally slashes with his left hand. With quick reflexes, Sasuke draws out his katana with his right hand [though since Sasuke doesn’t have the time to reposition his blade, he ends up in a defensive stance with the tip of his blade pointing downward] and as he completes his full turn, the two blades crosses as sparks fly across the area. Danzou and Sasuke then break apart from each other and back off maybe a few meters separating them. The scene switches to Karin in the small crevice near the fight.)

Karin: A clone? I was fooled too… It had to of been. Sasuke’s sharingan would have saw through a genjutsu… (The scene drops back on to the battle.)

Sasuke in thought: What were those hand seals for? That substitution clone? (Sasuke remembers back to when Danzou made the rabbit, boar, and sheep hand signs.)

(Danzou smirks.)

Danzou: I see…

Sasuke: Bastard! (Blood drops from Sasuke’s left eye. Danzou is shocked.)

Danzou: Amatearsu!? (Soon Danzou is engulfed in black flames. He is screaming and doing the stop drop and roll [lol] Karin cheers from her crevice…)

Karin: Well, that’s all she wrote… (Switches back to the battle. )

Sasuke: Hmph… (Sasuke turns his back and begins walking however, immediately Danzou is behind Sasuke again. Sasuke gets angry… He turns around to face Danzou… Sasuke closes his left and focuses with his right eye.)

Sasuke: STOP FUCKIN AROUND WITH ME! (Danzou falls over from an apparent Tsukukyomi.)

Karin: It has to be over now, that’s the strongest illusion! I don’t sense anything else…

(Danzou lands in front of Sasuke [from where ever] Karin is shocked.)

Karin: Multiple shadow clones? Their chakras all felt the same, so they must be… But his chakra just came out of nowhere. What the hell is going on here?

Danzou: Yess. The power of the Mangekyou Sharingan is finally revealed to me… I thank you Uchiha Sasuke for showing me this sight, the power in which gave the wielder the qualification to hold the world in his hands. Now I know what I’m up against!

Sasuke: Hiding behind the scenes like the coward you are… It’s time to end this.

Danzou: The experiment is over by the way. (The Scene switches to the Cabin. Naruto is in bed sleeping.)

Mysterious voice: Take me to Sasuke… (Naruto sits up frightened, all of a sudden he starts gagging.) Naruto: AHGAHGAHGH! (A crow flies out of his both then forms into the guise of Itachi.)

Itachi: Why so shocked? I sealed part of me inside of you for a reason. It’s running on a limited chakra, so don’t force anything… By this time I must already be dead considering what Sasuke is up to…

Naruto Screeching : EEEEEEEK! (Yamato comes crashing in.)

Yamato: What’s wrong Naruto, we needed to start-HOLY MOTHER OF!

Itachi:……

(The scene drops on Madara who is overlooking the battle field.)

Madara: I should’ve seen this coming… If Danzou is planning “That” it could in fact put Sasuke at a huge disadvantage in this battle… (The Scene drops back on the battle, we see the picture distorting and eventually cracking all across the area, showing the dispelling of a genjutsu however, Karin and Sasuke failed to notice the change when they were let out of the genjutsu.)

Danzou in thought: He can use Katon and has amplified Chidori variations from what the records say. Not to mention his Mangekyou techniques. He couldn’t tell that he was in my genjutsu… This will easily fall into my favor… (Danzou makes the Kage Bunshin no jutsu hand sign and produces one shadow clone. Sasuke takes notice as the scene switches to Karin.)

Karin: Another shadow clone? (The Scene switches over to Madara’s location.)

Madara In Thought: I thought so… Danzou picked up on Sasuke’s inability to sense that level of genjutsu… The sharingan usually can tell if someone is formed by a genjutsu by studying the unequal chakra patterns of the attacker. However in this the case, victim with the sharingan is placed in a genjutsu by a technique that controls how the victim perceives his natural surroundings.

The attacker’s chakra mimics the chakra patters of a perfectly normal person, so even the sharingan is fooled. That makes this level of genjutsu quite deadly. Danzou’s genjutsu is much more subtle yet, it’s a dangerous genjutsu that’s hard to detect. If one doesn’t have usually high genjutsu awareness, that person can’t break it. You have to know you’re in a genjutsu to break it…

This is perhaps a bad opponent for Sasuke. I might have to get involved, Sasuke wasn’t a genjutsu type to begin with…(The Scene switches back to the battle. Danzou’s shadow clone rushes forward. )

Sasuke: It’s just a shadow clone…. (As it gets closer, Danzou’s clone makes the same hand signs as before.) What does it mean?

(The Shadow clone extends its right hand like he’s doing a straight right punch. Sasuke avoids by slipping his head.)

Danzou in thought from a distance: Success… (The shadow clone in front of Sasuke makes a hand sign. Then Danzou draws out his short-sword from afar, while Sasuke stands in front of the shadow clone not moving an inch while the real Danzou prepares to attack. The Scene switches over to Madara as he’s worried.)

Madara: That’s Danzou’s skill. In order to fight while he focuses on genjutsu, he needs a separate body. Hmm, Sarutobi was also known for his proficiency with the shadow clone jutsu however, in order for Danzou to stand in his light, he also became proficient in the jutsu. It seems those two youngsters uses shadow clones to split up the work needed for casting their jutsu.

Next Time: Unleashed…

Ao: I still can’t believe he’s alive, but I trust your word…

Sasuke: (he covers Susano’o with Amaterasu) Enton: Kagutsuchi! (dark flames fly from Susano’o towards Danzou)

Sasuke: You’re mad if you think I’ll allow that! (Susano’o thrusts his sword towards Danzou; the attack is stopped by a chakra-formed dragon with watery patterns that surrounds Danzou, grasping Susano’o’s sword with its claws) What the…?!
Danzou: Surprised by Ryuujin **?

-Danzou vs. Sasuke

(Madara and Karin escape to higher elevation watching the battle from different angles. Scene drops on Madara.)

Madara: This is what you’ve been waiting for. Let me see how strong hatred has made you. (Scene drops on Karin’s location.)

Karin in thought mode: He’s just recovered from facing the Kages… Please don’t over exert yourself… But Madara is here, everything should be alright if things get too bad. But Danzou’s chakra… Are all those sharingan on his right arm?


(Scene drops on Sasuke and Danzou’s location; Sasuke glares at Danzou’s right arm from a distance.)

Sasuke: You’ll pay… YOU’LLL PAY FOR WHAT YOU’VE DONE! (Danzou smirks… Sasuke quickly makes the ox and monkey hand seals. He then grabs his left hand with his right hand, which forges the Chidori. )

Danzou: Hatake Kakashi’s jutsu… (Sasuke then extends it into the shape of Chidori Sharp Spear, this causes Danzou to back up a bit to avoid being impaled.) Hmm, interesting, so he can add more shape manipulation to an already deadly jutsu, changing its purpose… (Soon Sasuke tosses the Chidori Sharp Spear like a spear, much to the shock of everyone around him. Danzou however, slips to his left to avoid the attack. Danzou positions his right hand outward but bent. Soon, Danzou notices that Sasuke is within meters of attacking him.)

Danzou in thought mode: It was a feint for me to fall victim to his body flicker… (Danzou quickly draws out his short-sword with his left hand and holds it vertically. Danzou positions his body so that Sasuke’s chidori charged katana prepares to be blocked. Sasuke smirks.)

Sasuke in thought: Heh, he can’t defend like that… (Inches before Sasuke’s blade hits Danzou’s, Danzou’s blade is engulfed in wind chakra. Soon CLASH! Sasuke is knocked off balance as his blade flies out of his hand and lands faraway in back of him.) Damn…. Wind chakra…

(Madara and Karin look on intently… Immediately Danzou reaches in with his right hand, preparing to gouge out Sasuke’s left eye however, Sasuke quickly slips his head to the left. Soon all of Danzou’s sharingans gets a close up on Sasuke’s chakra network and notices that electrical charges are emerging.)

Danzou: Hmmmm. (Danzou immediately backs off further distances away as Sasuke’s body crackles with small electrical currents of Chidori. The crackling then stops.)

Sasuke in thought: He saw the nature of Chidori Nagashi before I even activated it… With those sharingan, he can probably read all of my jutsu from a variety of angles at rapid timing… But, I should have more stamina then he… (Sasuke activates Mangekyou Sharingan as the scene switches over to Madara.)

Madara: Ohh… (Switches back to the battle. Danzou takes notice of Sasuke’s Mangekyou Sharingan from afar.)

Danzou: All the more reason why I must have those eyes be a part of my collection… A different breed indeed, just likes that Uchiha Itachi who got away…

Sasuke: AHH! Go TO HELL! (Sasuke activates Amaterasu. Immediately Danzou prepares a jutsu [makes several handseals] he then expels mud on the ground and builds it up until it reaches the size of a Donton Wall. Same exact jutsu used by Sarutobi. The black flames of Amatearsu collide with the Wall of Earth instantly. Sasuke holds his eye in and pain and disappointment.)

Sasuke: Tsk! (The Scene switches over Sakura’s platoon. Immediately Kiba and Akamaru stop moving which places the team in shock.)

Sakura: What’s up guys?

Kiba: I’m picking up Sasuke’s scent! (Everyone else is shocked.)

Lee: Then why we stop man!

Kiba: I’m picking up that strange Akatuski from before as well as a couple others, one of which smells familiar.

Sai:….

Kiba: I don’t think it would be safe to proceed, that’s why I’m stopping here. Sakura, you organized this joint. What do you suppose we do now? Head back to request for aide?

Sakura: If we leave now, we’ll probably never find Sasuke’s scent again.

Lee: BUUT!

Sakura: Kiba, lead the way…

Sai:….

Kiba:….

(The Scene switches over to the Cabin. Team Hokage stands outside the establishment. Naruto is still down in his funk. Kakashi walks over and places his hand on Naruto’s shoulder.)

Kakashi: Naruto… Do what it is that needs to be done. That’s all the advice I have to offer. (Naruto lifts his head up.)

Naruto:…..

Kakashi: Yamato and I have to head back for Konoha but, our top priority is the safety of Sakura and the others. Do you understand Naruto…?

Naruto: Leave Sakura and Sasuke to me… (Kakashi and Yamato look intently at Naruto’s response. The Scene switches back over to the battle between Sasuke and Danzou. Two Shuriken are flying at Sasuke. Sasuke has a hard time focusing on them due to his vision, so he cancels Mangekyou Sharingan.)

Sasuke’s Thought: I’ve overused the Mangekyou Sharingan during my fight against the Kages… (Sasuke then ducks to avoid the Shuriken coming at his head. Switch Scene to Madara.)

Madara: He must not have enough in him to finish Danzou off. Sasuke’s suffering from the side effects of overusing the Mangekyou Sharingan… His body isn’t even moving as swiftly as it had been earlier…

(Switches back to the battle. Three Kunai then fly at Sasuke’s location. Sasuke jumps into the air. Then Danzou tosses a Kunai with an exploding tag on it towards Sasuke’s location in the air.)

Sasuke: Damn. (As it explodes Sasuke quickly makes a strings of handseals.) Katon: Great Fire Jutsu! (The jutsu combats the explosion and condenses the attack. Sasuke then lands on the ground exhausted. Danzou begins walking towards Sasuke’s location while Sasuke is still tired from his previous battles with the Kages. Scene switches to Karin’s location.)

Karin: NOT GOOD! His recovery was cut too short after all…(Switches back to the battle. Danzou is right in front of the kneeling Sasuke.)

Danzou: Before I plucked these eyes of yours. I’ll let you in on a little secret, because what Madara is telling you isn’t at all how I remember things based off your actions to kill me. (Scene switches to a flash back. Itachi is in his Anbu-Attire and he is speaking with Danzou in a secret room.)

Danzou: As much as the Uchiha are a problem for me, to simply comply with your plan, you’d have to provide me with some evidence to convince Homura and Koharu of this. (Itachi nods his head. The Scene switches back to the present.) In actuality, Itachi-(Sasuke looks on intently however, Immediately Madara’s head emerges from the ground and uses his arm and body to smuggle’s Danzou’s lower body.)

Let go of me!

Madara: QUICKLY KILL HIM! ALL LIES! (Sasuke quickly makes the handseals for Chidori as he stands up.)

Sasuke: AHHHHHHHHH! (Seconds from striking Danzou down with the chidori the chapter ends.)

Madara: “I see you’re quite willing… Danzō”
Danzō: “Madara.. We don’t know what he can do. Be on your guard.”
Fū: “Yessir”

Fū: “Torune, we’re constantly going to cover him together”
Torune: “Understood”

Madara is standing on top of a pillar
Fū and Torune plunge into Madara
Torune throws a kunai at Madara
Madara avoid. As he lands, Fū tries to Shintenshin him, but Madara disappears as soon as he hits the ground.

Fū: “He disappeared from the pillar. As we thought, he has the ability to slip through objects”
Torune: “What now? Can you sense his chakra right now?”
Fū: “No, he disappeared completely”
Fū: “!”
Madara reappears from their rear
As he turns around quickly, Fū cuts him with a sword
Madara’s mask is pierced by the sword, but it slips through. Madara doesn’t pay attention to it and grabs Fū’s arm.

Then Torune throws a kunai at Madara
The kunai hits the mask, bu~~t it slips through.
After that, Fū gets away from Madara.

Madara: “Sensing and the hand-seal for Shintenshin… You’re a Yamanaka, right…?”
Torune: “When he lets the enemy’s attack slip through in order to protect himself, he gets rid of the entire substance of his body”
Fū: “He has to rematerialise if he wants to make a physical attack… In other words, we should aim to counter that”
Madara: “You understand it well… Nice analysis”

Torune whispers into Fū’s ear: (in order to intentionally create a timing for the counter, we have to continuously attack him and move in two steps. The first step is a decoy)
Fū: (I’ll be the decoy… …The Shintenshin no Jutsu cannot be read. You do the main move.)
Torune: (Understood)

Torune takes off his gloves with his mouth
Fū plunges into Madara. Madara evades.
As the chance appears Torune goes (There!!)
Madara evades. The momentum of the attack isn’t broken and the counter punch hits Fū’s left hand
Fū collapses. Fū’s left hand has been invaded by a fungus? and starts rotting?

With the glove off, the cells of everything he touches break down.
Torune: (That guy… He only pretended to attack… Damnit! He tricked us…!)
Madara: “…”

Madara checks the collapsed Fū’s state with his Sharingan
Madara: “Hmm… A technique that destroys cells by flowing chakra into them… How troublesome”

Torune gets besides Fū: “I’m sorry Fū. I’ll undo it immediately”
Madara: “!”
Torune touches Fū’s injury with his index finger
Madara: “It’s not chakra, is it. Those are nano-sized poisonous insects… Close to bacteria. You… Even among those shinobi of the Aburame clan who possess this Hiden ninjutsu… [only] that kid Aburame Shikoku had the antibodies for those insects… So Root got their hands on you, hmm…”
Torune has a drop of sweat on his cheek

Sai starts talking to Naruto about Sakura’s true feelings

What Sakura hid away from him was that: “Konoha will deal with Sasuke” and, “All the members of our class plan to act.”

Sai and Kakashi figure that it seems like Sakura plans on killing Sasuke herself

It’s because she loves Sasuke that she can’t just leave him pursuing his evil ends like this; even if it turns out that she has to kill a person she loves with her own hands, Sasuke whom she had fallen in love with, that is what Sakura is ready to do

The Kazekage, Kankurou, and Temari make an appearance when they’re done talking. They speak of the developments of what happened at the Five Kage meeting


Around that time, Madara (Tobi) appears where Danzou and his posse are

Also at that time, the Kazekage finishes talking to Naruto and co. about what went on at the Kage meeting, about the Great Shinobi War

The Kazekage says, “This is a war to protect the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails. As the Kazekage, I’ll risk my life to protect you. I won’t put up with it if Uchiha Sasuke were to stand in my way as one of the Akatsuki”

“Naruto…you once told me ‘I’m the man who’ll be Hokage’. Well I’ve become Kazekage. If you decided on carrying the burden of the Kage title, then as Sasuke’s friend, do what truly needs to be done”

And while that’s happening, Danzou and his posse begin fighting Madara

(Kisame continues the attack. A grin comes across Killer Bee’s face. Killer Bee instantly extends his right hand much to Kisame’s dismay. In a split second the Samehada is in Killer Bee’s right hand. Killer Bee grabs hold of the Samehada, flips to his back pulls his knees in and blocks the downward, horizontal slash of Kisame.)

(As they are parried, Kisame’s voice trembles in disbelief and frustration.)

Kisame: Impossible… It chose him… And the speed at which Samehada returned to him. It’s far greater than my chakra attachment rate to the Samehada! WHAT A FILCH! WHAT A GREEZY, FILCHER YOU ARE!

(Soon the Samehada curves to its left and attempts to lash out at Kisame however, Kisame backs off as Killer Bee returns to his feet.)

Kisame: Is this for real? I’m the one who fought my way this far with the Samehada.

(In Killer Bee’s mind Hachibi speaks out.)

Hachibi: Our chakras… What Irony? Let it feed us.

(Back to reality, Killer Bee extends his left hand in the air and makes the love sign. Then he lets out a battle cry [lol]).

Killer Bee: WHEEEEEEEEE! (As Killer Bee continues his cry, he goes into version 1 with all eight tails, then black clouds of misty like chakra surrounds him, then a paler aura of chakra forms a small dome around him. Basically, these chakra levels are beyond imagination as three different characteristics of chakras envelops Killer Bee. Bonta and Sabu watches in amazement. Kisame watches in horror. Soon Killer Bee dispels the chakra, he then drops his left hand and points the Samehada at Kisame.)

Killer Bee: Yes, lemme take this blade, so you enjoy my escapade as I dance over your broken body!

(Kisame whose face was at first sour then turns into a slick demeanor.)

Kisame: Before you end this life of mine, might I make you an offer? (Killer Bee lowers his blade.)

Killer Bee: Oh righty! Imma man of honor, I hear ya wish!

Kisame: There will be a war soon; Akatuski against the allied forces.

Killer Bee: A War? (In Killer Bee’s mind.)

Hachibi: Don’t listen to him, kill him! (Back to the real world.)

Killer Bee: I don’t like war, too many travesties, yeah!

Kisame: Someone of your caliber is meant to embrace war like environments. I know deep down, this is what you’re longing for.

Killer Bee: You know nothing about me! I long for the easy life and to sing! (Sabu tears up in the distance. Switches to Killer Bee’s mind.)

Hachibi: Tell him BEE! (Back to reality.)

Kisame: How someone like you get all that power is a waste!

Killer Bee: Now you’re sounding like my big bro!

(In Killer Bee’s mind.)

Hachibi: Now kill ‘em.

(Back to reality.)

Kisame: It will be a battle with Bijuu. For the first time you can test your metal against others like you!

(In Killer Bee’s mind.)

Hachibi: WAIT KILLER BEE!

Killer Bee: You were against this at first, what gives?

Hachibi: Bee, this is a great opportunity for me to converse, we’ll humiliate my brothers! Let’s show, em Bee; the idiots who fell victim to Akatuski. Those rejects won’t know what’s coming.

Killer Bee: I don’t know, such a thing requires that I return to the Cloud.

Hachibi: We get to meet Nibi again too!

Killer Bee: But those Akatsuki bastards likely killed Yugito!

Hachibi: Well there’s nothing you can do about that. Either way, this war is going to happen whether we consent to it or, not. DAMN IT KILLER BEE OPEN YOUR EYES WHEN WE SPEAK!

(Switch back to reality. Killer Bee looks around notices that Kisame is nowhere in sight.)

Killer Bee: He got away. (Back to inside the Killer Bee’s mind.)

Hachibi: Aren’t you going to go after him? He can’t be too far.

Killer Bee: No, his power is gone, he’s no threat.

Hachibi: You’re too lenient. Like you were with the Uchiha and his pals… Raikage is probably still tossing a fit.

Killer Bee: Well, there’s only one way to fine out.

Hachibi: You’re a glutton for punishment, like always. (Back to reality, Killer Bee lifts up his Samehada and looks at it.)

Samehada: Gi, Gi, Gi, Gi, Gi.

Killer Bee: Nah, his iron claw won’t work this time. (Switch back to Killer Bee’s mind.)

Hachibi: I suppose if it’s just a little chakra at a time, I don’t mind.

(The Scene switches back to reality; Killer Bee smiles; soon Sabu, while on top of Bunta approaches Killer Bee.)

Sabu: I didn’t want to interfere, but why did you let him go?

Killer Bee: I don’t know… Maybe part of me wants to do battle with him again… I just hope I’m not making a mistake… But it doesn’t matter, I have this with me. (Killer Bee swings Samehada. Bonta gets scared and backs up with Sabu on top.)

Sabu: Hey! Careful with that! Bonta’ll get nightmares.

Killer Bee: Chill, I know what I’m doing… (Killer Bee grins. He then jumps on top of Bonta.)

Sabu: Shall we continue our, training?

Killer Bee: Nah, we need to make a trip. (The Scene switches over Kisame as he is rushing through the forest.)

Kisame: I’ll come back for you Samehada… I’ll have something you like this time… Madara already promised me a Bijuu… Mr. Eight Tailed Host… We’ll meet again, on the battlefield…

(The Scene switches over to Naruto, as he sits on top of the roof of the cabin. He is in Sage Mode and is concentrating. Naruto goes over something in his head.)

Naruto: What are they up too? Konoha’s not that way (Scene flashes to Sakura, Kiba, Lee, and Sai as they are rushing off somewhere. The scene then quickly switches back to Naruto’s location.) And I feel an irregular chakra nearby. (Scene flashes to a Sai clone in the brushes somewhere, then flashes back to Naruto’s location.)

There’s three chakras coming this way. (Scene switches to Gaara, Kankuro, and Temari’s location. They are currently in the same small village as Team Konoha. The Scene switches over to Naruto.) Wow… I can even pick up several more chakra sources. I wonder if some are the Kages and their the body guards. Wait, I feel a stranger chakra from the others a little further back. (Scene switches over to Madara’s location, he opens up a spinning whirl of chakra as Sasuke and Karin comes spinning out.)

Karin: WHAAAA. (Sasuke lands expertly on the ground. It seems he has recovered.)

Sasuke: Where’s Danzou!

Madara: Aww, no thank you?

Sasuke: Hmph… (Scene switches over to Team Sakura.)

Akamaru: WOOF!

Kiba: Sakura you won’t believe this… (Sakura has a worried look on her face. The Scene switches over to Naruto’s location. Naruto is still in deep thought.)

Naruto: But who are those two with him? Should I investigate? But there’s so many, I might just be wasting my time. (End of Naruto’s thought, soon Yamato is looking at Naruto.)

Yamato: Naruto, come in before you catch a cold!

Naruto: I’m in Sage Mode, I can hardly feel the chills. (Kakashi appears as well.)

Kakashi: Give it a rest Naruto. You’ve been at it all day. Get some rest. Oh and Sai get out, we know you’re there! (Sai’s clone emerges from the brushes.)

Naruto: Wait, why is he here? (Naruto soon goes into deep thought as he picks up something, so he goes in thought again). Why is Sakura and them heading towards that strange chakra? (End of Naruto’s thought.)

Kakashi: Naruto, what’s wrong? You’ve been acting off as of lately. (Naruto locks eyes with Sai’s clone.)

Next Time: In pursuit!

Naruto Chapter 472 Spoiler

Killer bee changes to bijuu, and tries to escape while holding Sabu-chan et Ponta. But the water moves with Kisame in the center, so if he swims after them, they can’t reach the air.

Then Killer Bee suggests that since Kisame is after him, he’ll leave them and try to escape by himself, so that with the water moving they will eventually reach the air. But Kisame attacks Ponta

Killer Bee gets back to the rescue, and falls into the trap of Kisame, who attacks him with the dorsal fin and gets him back to a lower version of bjiuu

Killer Bee gets out a single tentacle and uses it to grab Kisame away from him

Meanwhile, Sabu-chan and Ponta get out of the water

Killer Bee somethings about lightning sword, but on a suggestion of Hachibi, just spouts off ink in order to escape

But Samehada/Kisame fusion can feel the chakra through the skin and he attacks Killer bee with the dorsal fin

More to follow

Kisame has cancelled the Suiton and the fusion, and gets close to Killer Bee down and not moving. He tries to cut off his legs but Samehada grabs the earth to protect Killer Bee

Thorns come out of the handle, forcing Kisame to drop it, and Samehada jumps close to Killer Bee

Samehada liked Killer Bee Chakra so much, it wants to make him its new master. It tries to heal Killer Bee with Chakra stolen from Kisame, but Kisame kicks it off

Kisame grabs a sword of Killer Bee stuck into the earth, and gets ready to stab him.

Naruto Chapter 471 Spoiler

Sabu: “The sword changed…”
Samehada: “Gigigigigi”
Killer Bee: “Oh? Hoshigaki Kisame… you say”
Killer bee puts his finger in his mouth and writes the name in a book.
Kisame: “There’s ink coming from his mouth…… The rumours were right, he is an octopus guy.”
Killer Bee: “He’s gonna make you cry in sorrow! This octopus guy! Wiiiiiii!!”

The Tailed Beast cloak goes up to seven tails

Sabu: “The Tailed Beast form… There are seven chakra tails…! Bee is serious!”

Killer Bee: “Did you know?”
Kisame: “What?”
Killer Bee attacks Kisame with a sword in one hand
Killer Bee: “Octopi eat sharks!”
Samehada avoids Killer Bee’s assault
(Kisame just set up Samehada, but Samehada is moving on its own, avoiding the attack)

Sabu: “The sword dodged!”

Samehada moves on its own and attacks Killer Bee, but he avoids it.
However, [one of] Killer Bee’s tails is eaten.

Samehada: “Gyagigigiii~!!”

Kisame: “It seems that this time, the shark is going to eat the octopus
Sabu: “He absorbed Bee’s chakra again… Furthermore, that guy’s sword became huge!”
Killer Bee: “That sword ‘Samehada’… It’s a fast-eating glutton, but… the amount of chakra it can eat in one time seems to be about six tails…”

He decreases the amount of tails to one.

Killer Bee: “If this version is like this… the next version should do good…”
Meanwhile

Choujuurou: “There it is Mizukage-sama. This time it’s here.”
Mizukage: “Judging from the flow of the markings, Ao should be around here. Let’s hurry.”
Choujuurou: “Yes ma’am!”
Meanwhile

Fū: “Dammit… It’s useless, as I though…”
Ao’s body is moving against his will because of the Shintenshin technique; there’s a fuda attached to his right eye (a barrier ninjutsu used by Kiri’s ANBU), which he’s trying to take off with a kunai.

Fū: “If anything is threatening the eye, it is automatically invoked, hm? A jutsu you guys thought of in what is popularly called the Corpse Processing Team… I didn’t think it would be simple… When I gauge out your eye, the eye of the technique’s use, my eye, will also become useless… You understand this, right?”

Ao: “Danzou’s orders…? What is that subordinate thinking?”
Fū: “This single eye of mine is a small price to pay for lowering Kiri’s war potential so much. The barrier is making it impossible right now, but still… Still, I can try as long as I need”

Ao: “What is he planning to do?”

Fū: “If i jump down from here, I won’t be able to take the head off. If the eye is impossible, there’s nothing left but taking your entire head back to Konoha.”

Fū uses Ao’s body and climbs a tree, ready to jump down.

Ao: “He’s planning to die?”

Fū: “No, when the head is about to go off, I’ll cancel the Shintenshin… At any rate, you will die… Once I’m back in my own body, I’ll return here and take your head.”
Ao: “Oh well… If you’re going to do something like that, you have to take care… If you don’t you’ll fail.”

Fū: “What do you mean?”

Ao: “if you get even a little bit scared and cancel the echnique too soon, I’ll definately defend myself against the sickle. Supposing I won’t die… when you come back to pick up my head, our situations will be reversed, don’t you think?”

Fū uses Ao’s body to grab the sickle. He aims it and falls.
Kisame: “This is the first time Samehada became this big. He isn’t half happy it seems.”

Eight-Tails: “Let me out too, change into your Tailed Beast form Bee!”

Killer Bee: “No you idiot! This guy! With eight tails, our attacks are too big; they’ll wreck the entire surroundings. Richt now, Sabu-chan-sensei and Ponta are here as well. Furthermore, I finally managed to conceal my body. If I let you out, ti will be like going ‘Here’s the Eight-Tailed Killer Bee!’ ”

Eight-Tails: “You’re worn out, aren’t you Bee! What are you gonna do? Are you gonna use Version 2?”

Killer Bee: “Aayeah~♪ However, in the exchange of blows before, he almost stole all my chakra… Lend me some of yours!”
Eight-Tails: “Hmpf, without me, you’d have been defeated a long time ago”

Killer Bee: “What a brazen speech~♪ You have my thanks for your compassion yeah~♪”

Killer Bee changes into his seven-tailed Tailed Beast form (His entire body turn pitch-black)

Killer Bee: “Let’s… go…”

Kisame: “Tailed Beast transformation?”

Sabu: “No! This is… a Tailed Beast’s power supressed into a human form…”
Killer Bee: “Lariat!!!!”

On Killer Bee’s shoulders, something looking like the skull of a bull appears.

Samehada: “Pigigigigii!!”

Kisame: “Samehada is so exited, it’s tripping… The volume of the chakra… its quality… it’s incomparable to before… He’s the only one of the nine… He has so much control he can use this much chakra and stillm keep his own personality…”
“He cannot eat up such an amount…”
The Lariat crashes into Samehada. Fragments of Samehada fly around.

Sabu: “He did it!!!”

Killer Bee: “Making me go into this version… you’re one impatiant, gluttonous sword!”

He goes back to the Tailed Beast cloak

Kisame: “He did it… didn’t he…”

Sabu: “It’s still alive! Quickly, pay attention!”

Killer Bee: “!?”

Kisame touches Samehada and the wound in his abdomen heals

Kisame: “If my opponent is strong, I’ll become stronger in proportion to that strength… I will neither get tired, nor break down.”

Sabu: “The sword robs the opposing person of their chakra… then passes it over to its owner as stamina… that’s the arrangement?”

I’m not too sure about the sentence “He’s the only one of the nine…”
Kisame: “That is why… I’m called a Tailed Beast without a tails…”

Water Release: Great Exploding Water Colliding Wave (水遁・大爆水衝波, Suiton: Daibaku Suishouha)¹

The entire surface surrounding them becomes like a sea.

Kisame: “If the battle is prolonged, I’ll shave off [your chakra] and weaken you as much as it’s prolonged… but, the shaved off parts will rapidly strengthen me.”

Sabu: “Bee! you have to grab that guy’s sword! That sword is the key to his strength!”

Kisame fuses with Samehada.

Killer Bee: “!?”

Kisame: “If you can rip it from my body, that is”

The end.

Another Specialist Prediction

-The Bitter truth

(The scene continues on from last chapter. Naruto is tightly gripping Sakura’s shoulders.)

“N,N, Naruto how could you say such a thing? We both know how we feel about each other. Just drop that hard to get attitude and open up will ya? How about we go on a date, just the two of us, like you’ve always wanted and drop this gloomy setting for the meantime,” said Sakura. (Sakura is now scared by Naruto’s evil glare; Naruto removes his hands and drops his head in utter disappointment. Close up on everyone else’s faces show that their disturbed as well [except for Sai] from Sakura’s response.)

“She crossed the line so far that she’ll need a map to get back,” thought Kiba. “Sakura how could you toy with a man’s heart like it’s some action figure,” thought Lee. (A tear rushes down his face as he pumps his fists in disappointment.) “This will not end well. An almost exact replication of the events that transpired in the fourth act of the latest Icha Icha novel,” thought Kakashi.

“I’m sorry Kakashi, but I can’t sit back and let Naruto get swindled,” said Yamato. (He tries to move forward however Kakashi stops him again.) “Kakashi,” yelled Yamato. (Everyone takes notice, and then Kakashi whispers in Yamato’s ear.)

“Tenzou, Naruto talked the Akatuski Leader into changing his ways. He can certainly settle a trivial matter of this level. Have some faith in Naruto, if we keep intervening, he’ll never improve as a man,” whispered Kakashi. “I understand, I didn’t mean to lash out, but Sakura… She’s obviously up to something, and it’s staler than day old oatmeal,” whispered Yamato.

“Don’t worry, it’s all going according to the forth act,” whispered Kakashi. (Yamato sighs.) “You don’t mean… Kakashi you’re hopeless,” whispered Yamato. (Kakashi puts his hand over his mask to help silence his giggles. Sai and the others take notice.)

“……,” Sai is speechless. “What are they whispering about? I want to know,” said Lee. (He attempts to listen in while Kiba elbows him in the gut.) “What was that for,” whispered Lee. “Now is not the time, look at the setting. I got this hint that something is about to go down,” whispered Kiba.

(Sakura places her hands on Naruto’s shoulders however, Naruto reacts quickly by knocking them off with the force of both of his hands. She is stunned.)

“That, hurt! What had gotten into you Naruto,” yelled Sakura. “Enough. I’ve had enough of your mouth. If I heard one more word I’d probably void my bowls,” said Naruto. (Everyone is at attention.) “You can’t seriously mean that,” said Sakura. “I SAID ENOUGH! I’ll hear no more of your lies,” yelled Naruto.

“But I was just trying to,” said Sakura before getting cut off. “SHUT UP! I can’t believe this. I never knew you were so weak. The Old Sakura I knew would never give up on Sasuke! Now you are settling for an excuse for your lack of strength to do anything! That’s not the Sakura I came to know and respect,” yelled Naruto. (Sakura has the “I eat shit face” on.) “Sasuke’s the one who needs saving so I don’t have time to waste on someone like you,” said Naruto. (He turns his back to Sakura. He then runs away.) “Nn, NARUTO,” yelled Sakura. (She falls to her knees and cries continuously. She reaches her hand out however, it soon loses strength and hits the snow. Kakashi appears in front of Sakura and looks down at her.)

“Get up! Let me have a word with you,” said Kakashi. (Sakura looks at Kakashi with tearful eyes.) “It concerns Naruto’s feelings, I suggest you hear me out if you ever want to establish the same connection you two had previously,” said Kakashi. (Kakashi pictures Obito before the dialogue switches over to Sakura.) “I messed up, didn’t I,” asked Sakura. “Well the number one rule is to learn from your mistakes and besides, Naruto’s a forgiving kinda guy,” grinned Kakashi.

“And I said I wouldn’t make any more mistakes… Why do I always keep causing Naruto problems no matter how hard I try to remedy the situation,” thought Sakura.

(The Scene switches over to Kisame vs. Killer Bee. Bonta is seen unconscious as it lies down flat on one side. The entire side that is exposed has had the hide cleanly shaved off. The hide is seen under Kisame’s feet, almost like a huge carpet.)

“Thanks for the gift, my Samaheda gladly appreciated it,” said the smirking Kisame. (Sabu while standing on his sword moans. Killer Bee is on a nearby branch due to Bonta forcing him to retreat to safer ground.) “NOOOOO. My poor Bonta,” yelled Sabu. “Hmm. In one stroke, this guy aint no joke. I gotta go all out no doubt,” thought Killer Bee.

(Sabu points his finger at Kisame.) “You’ll pay with my passion,” yelled Sabu. “More chakra for me to rip out,” thought Kisame. (He swings his blade while Sabu gulps and sweats.) “Don’t worry Sab, I’ll rush him like a mob. So without a delay, I’ll choose to fillet,” yelled Killer Bee. “MY PRECIOUS STUDENT,” thought Sabu. (He tears up. Killer Bee flips down and lands on his feet. Killer Bee pulls out his dual short-swords and channels the lightning element into them. He rushes forward with fast speeds. Kisame has his blade at the ready.)

“Here he comes,” thought Kisame. (As Killer Bee draws within 15 ft, Killer Bee turns his behind to face Kisame. Killer Bee bends down and points his hands backwards which positions both blades behind him. Kisame is shocked at that pose.)

“What the hell kind of sword style is that,” said Kisame. “Raiton: Dual Powered Bee Drill,” yelled Killer Bee. (From the two lightning charged swords, the lightning element extends in length the Chidori Eisou. However, the two chakra blades merge together and twist with each other, creating a kind of drilling lightning shape manipulation that rushes at Kisame at blinding speeds.)

“Oh yeah, he can’t avoid it at this range,” thought Killer Bee. (Kisame however, swings his blade horizontally, which cancels the lightning technique.) “What, my chakra,” thought Killer Bee. (Sabu is shocked.) “My turn,” said the grinning Kisame. (Kisame rushes forward at Killer Bee’s awkward poise. Killer Bee however, quickly gets on his guard by turning around and parrying Kisame’s diagonal slash with his short swords blocking in an x block formation however, Kisame’s blade changes a little as the shark skin scales are cutting into Killer Bee’s blades.)

“So you’re an expert swordsmen like myself? How do you like my Samaheda? It severs and eats chakra, all your jutsu are ineffective at this range,” said the grinning Kisame. (Killer Bee notices that his blades are beginning to crack.) “So dat’s your game,” said Killer Bee. (Kisame notices that Killer Bee is pushing back.) “You’re a strong one I see,” said Kisame. (Killer Bee’s blades crack even further as he pushes Kisame back. Killer Bee grunts and grinds his teeth as the sparks fly.)

“There’s not a fool I couldn’t beat. Everyone I face will meet defeat,” yelled Killer Bee. (He pushes back with supreme physical strength which knocks Kisame back several meters as Kisame digs his blade in the ground to increase friction. However, Both of Killer Bee’s blades look as though the next strike would shatter them instantly. Kisame smiles and begins unwraping his Samaheda.)

“Hah, hah. It has been a long time since I’ve shown this to someone. No wonder you gave Itachi’s brother more than he could handle. This is my Released Samaheda! How about I turn you into confetti for this marvelous new carpet of mine,” said the grinning Kisame. (Kisame’s blade is unwrapped. All of the menacing scales have now lifted upwards as Kisame prepares to seemingly seep the teeth into the boastful Killer Bee.)

Next Time: Fearless! Who will break first in this catastrophic display of Beastly Nature?

Naruto Chapter 469 Spoiler

Tags:Discussion, Naruto Spoiler, Prediction.

Naruto is sitting at a table with the Kakashi, yamoto, sai, kiba, bushy brow, and sakura. He has a troubled look on his face
as he listens to their words. Then sakura looks at Naruto who immediately averts eye contact with her. Sakura is suddenly
surprised at this this action.

Sakura: “Naruto, you do not have to take on this burden alone. I was Sasuke’s teammate too. You do not need to take on this
heavy burden alone.”

Naruto: “Are you really that blind of how far this situation has gone?”
The others are shocked at what they have just heard from Naruto. Sakura’s eyes begin to tear up.

Sakura: “I am well aware of the sacrifices you have made just to get us even close to sasuke but Im saying you do not have to
take those risks alone.”

Naruto: “And what exactly can any of you do in this situation? Nothing.”
Kiba gets mad and stands up slamming his fist on the table. The others are surprised at what kiba has done.

Kiba: “Don’t underestimate the rest of the ninjas in this village. Many of us have faught hard to get to where we are!”
Kakashi: “….”

Naruto looks up at Kiba and pulls out a kunai. He sets it on the table. The others are surprised at what they are seeing.

Naruto: “Sadly Kiba the shinobi we are facing now are not some simple bandit shinobi you may have faced thus far.”
Yamoto: “…”
Naruto: “I would have thought the assault by Pain on konoha would have taught many of you that by now.”

Naruto goes sage mode and instantly breaks the kunai at the middle of the blade in half. Everyone’s eyes stare in shock at what
they are seeing. Naruto smiles and sets the blade edge first down into the table imbedding it deep in with no effort.
Naruto: “That is the kind of power you face out there. All it takes is one second of being off guard and you are….”
Naruto changes into sage mode and seems to be surprised. Kakashi and Yamoto notice Naruto’s expression with concern.
Kakashi: “What is it?”

Naruto: “We have guests incoming. Several shinobi including a tracker.”

On a hill side overlooking the cabin. Garaa, Shii, Kankuro, Temari, Tsuchikage, Raikage, and Mifune with a few samurai.
Raikage: “So are they in there or not Shii?”
Shii: “Im sensing 3 no 5 shinobi. What the?!”

Shii instantly senses the sage chakra and then sees a huge toad eye watching him.
Shii: “There is someone in there with a chakra unlike anything I have sensed before. I think it sensed me as well.”

Raikage: “Jinchuriki chakra? You have sensed that before with my brother.”
Shii: “No this is different. This chakra is almost alien. Its unlike anything I have ever sense before but whoever it is that is in there with them is far stronger than anything I have ever sensed before.”

Tsuchikage: “Then lets just go investigate who or what it is that is in there. Im freezing my butt off out here.”

Shii: “Its coming this way. It will be here any second.”
Raikage: “Everybody stand by and prepare for combat.”
Mifune: “Spread out. Do not let anyone get near the kages.”
Shii: “Its almost here.”

Raikage: “Where? I don’t see anything.”
Temari: “Look out! Its coming from above!”
The others scatter to avoid the huge shadow of the falling object. The object hits the snow hard causing the snow to flurry around
obscuring their view. When the snow clears the others are shocked to see Sage Naruto with several clones with Kakashi and Yamoto
riding on a huge toad with a massive sword. The samurai charge forward and naruto prepares a rasenshuriken.

Garaa: “Stop! Its them!”
Naruto turns to look at Garaa and Garaa is shocked to see naruto’s eyes have changed as well as the monsterous rasenshuriken.
Raikage: “…”
Shii: “Boss its him. Thats the guy with the wierd chakra.”
Kakashi: “Easy naruto. These people are not akatsuki.”
Naruto powers down the rasenshuriken and jumps off the toad.
Naruto: “Thank you. Say hi to Pa Toad for me.”
Toad: “No problem kid.”

The Toad desummons while everyone stares at Naruto who is still in sage mode. Kakashi smiles and looks at everyone.
Kakashi: “Lets all get inside the cabin and rest. Its rather cold out here.”
Tsuchikage: “Finally someone I can agree with. My hands are frozen.”
Raikage thinking: “What was that jutsu he was about to use.”

Everyone is inside the downstairs section of the cabin. Everyone is staring at Naruto who stands by the fire. Raikage
Kakashi: “So that is what Madara is planning?”
Garaa: “Yes. He seems to be determined to summon this juubi and afflict everyone with a genjutsu.”
Yamoto: “So that what he meant by the eye of the moon plan.”
Raikage: “But all that is not as important now as what must be done. Naruto and my brother must not fall into his hands.”

Naruto: “And what makes you think I can’t defend myself against them?”
Garaa: “Naruto, we have no idea just what Madara has planned so we have no way to protect you if you are on the battlefield.”
Naruto: “Or do you mean to protect yourselves?”
Garaa: “…..”
Tsuchikage: “Don’t worry kid. You will be kept in good safe hands until this is all over.”

Naruto: “And when will that be. 1 year? 5 years? 10 years? Madara has hunted me my whole life since the day I was born but he has
never gotten me nor will he now.”
Raikage: “And if you refuse to come my people will gladly keep you locked away until this crisis is over.”

Naruto: “I would like to see you try.”
Raikage: “You impudent brat!”
Kakashi: “Easy naruto. Why don’t you go check on the others upstairs.”
Naruto: “….”
Naruto heads up the stairs and the door to upstairs closes.
Kakashi: “I think the real issue here is that all of this right now is based on reaction from threat instead of relying on actual information.”

Garaa: “How so?”
Kakashi: “I don’t think any of you in this room with the exception of myself or yamoto who realize just how powerful Naruto really is?”
Yamoto: “Should we really tell them this?”
Kakashi: “Relax. How much do you really know about what happened to Konoha a few days ago?”
Raikage: “My people have said that there was a battle with akatsuki but no one was killed except for 7 members of akatsuki with one
unaccounted for still.”

Kakashi: “But did your people tell you that the persons who attacked konoha included a user of the Rinnegan?”
Tsuchikage: “The rinnegan? So Madara really does have someone with the rinnegan.”
Kakashi: “Had is the more appropriate word. That rinnegan user aka Nagato was killed in action during that battle.”

Everyone gasps except for kakashi and yamoto who looks concerned.
Tsuchikage: “That boy killed a legendary Sage? How?”
Kakashi: “By becoming one himself.”

Garaa: “So Naruto is a sage now?”
Kakashi: “Correct. A toad sage to be exact. That is not the least of it though cause there is something more.”
Killer Bee is shown standing on top of a tree top overlooking a huge swamp with sharks swimming around the tree.

Starts with Kensei.

Mashiro: You’re avenging me…

Kensei: You didn’t even follow my instructions so why would I avenge you?

It’s just that I can’t approve of this cheeky kid!!

Bankai!!　Then they start fighting.

Switches to Aizen. His back is turned to the battle between WW and Kensei.

Nja says he’s sorry but he doesn’t remember what happens very well.

Aizen starts saying provoking things.

Hirako: Hiyori, it’s no use rushing in without a plan. This guy’s ability…

Aizen: What are you so afraid of, Captain Hirako?

Hiyori gets fired up.

Aizen says things like ” It’s ok to not be so afraid. After all you all have died once before, so what’s to be afraid of?”

Hiyori erupts with an attack.

Her body get pierced by a sword and her body is split in two (from the waist down)..(I heartless.)

Ichimaru: Customer, it’s over. She was cut down by Ichimaru’s extended sword.

Hirako: Hiyoriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii He hold her upper body.

Hiryori: Shin…ji…My insides…I… can’t bear it….

Hirako: “Hachi!!” He sees him without his right arm.

If Orihime-chan were here she could heal it…

Ichigo!!!!What are you doing? Ichigo, hurry up and come…

The text reads, “Where is Ichigo headed? Will he be in time!”

The end.

Confirmation :

full translation of that part by shounensuki:
The coloured cover is two pages wide and has Zabuza, Haku, and all the dead Akatsuki members!

Sakura is getting ready to set out to the Land of Iron. Three people are going, it seems: Sakura, Kiba, and Lee.

Well, to the conference room:
The Raikage uses a momentary oppertunity to attack Sasuke on Madara’s shoulder, but [Madara uses] a space-time ninjutsu to send Sasuke somewhere else.
[He] orders Karin to give [Sasuke] medical treatment and sends her away too

From here, the conversation starts:
Gaara: “Why did you make Sasuke come here!?”
Madara: “I sent him here because it’s very valuable [to me] that he activate his eyes all the way up to Susanoo. I also planned for him to bring you Five Kage down and imprison you, but it seems that was hopeless yet.”
Here ends the conversation about Sasuke
“My goal is to rule the world. I’ve wished this for a long time.”
Tsuchikage: “In your case, you should be able to do that by yourself, right?”
Madara: “My body was too gravely injured in the fight against the First, Hashirama. I don’t have such power left.”
Someone: “Why are you collecting the Tailed Beasts?”
To the story about the Eye of the Moon Plan:


The origin of the current Tailed Beasts is that they are born from a single Ten-Tails. Temari or Kankurou: “Shouldn’t there be only nine Tailed Beasts?”
Madara: “Long ago, the Sage of the Six Paths saved the world from the Ten-Tails, but because the beast’s power was so great, the Sage put the demonic power inside his own body, making himself a jinchuuriki. Then, he created the Moon and sealed the Ten-Tails’ body there. (the story was much longer, but I can’t remember the rest ><) Then, as his own death approached, he divided the power into nine pieces…”
I’m sorry, but I’m telling it extremely simplified
Madara: “[My goal is to] revive the Ten-Tails and become its jinchuuriki, project an infinite Tsukuyomi on the Moon, and so rule all of mankind, thus I will create a world without strife.”
Mizukage: “This world has no place for such a dream or hope”
Madara: “Right now, it’s neither hope nor anything. Hurry up and hand over the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails.”

To be continued
That’s the entire long spoiler

here is another part by Nja that was not posted here but was translated by Shounensuki:

Raikage: “The Eight-Tails!? Bee is still alive?”
Madara: “The capture of the Eight-Tails was a failure. Despite being your younger brother, he is a truly splendid shinobi.”
Raikage: “What the hell! I’ll bet he took this opportunity to go play somewhere else!! When he comes back, I’ll Iron Claw¹ him!!!”
C, Darui: “Something like that was probably what he was thinking about…”

Gaara: “I won’t hand over Uzumaki Naruto!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Tsuchikage: “Raikage, what about you?” “Of course I won’t hand him over!!!!!”
Madara: “Are you okay with a breakdown? If it comes down to war, I don’t think you guys will have a great chance of success against the Tailed Beasts”

Gaara: “I won’t throw away my dream!!”

Madara: “All right then, I hereby declare the Fourth Great Ninja World War!!”

The end

Sasuke: I’m afraid that I have to decline your invitation I have someone I need to take care of.
Chojuuro appears behind Sasuke with his blade to Sasuke’s throat.

Chojuuro: The lady asked you politely to stop your foolishness you’d best accept her offer before we kill you.
Sasuke thinking: he’s fast!
Sasuke uses Nagashi on Chojuuro & he gets knocked back. Mizukage smiles at Sasuke as he’s hit from behind with the white goo left on the wall from Mizukage’s earlier attack.
Sasuke: ArrrHHH!!!!
Sasuke channels raiton to remove the sticky goo.
Sasuke thinking: She can control it with her mind!
Sasuke uses shunshin to quickly get behind Mizukage & stabs her in the back.
Mizukage: Hahahahaha!!!! that tickled!!! You’re really something Uchiha Sasuke!!!
Sasuke thinking: WTF?!?!
Sasuke channels raiton into his blade to electrify the Mizukage. Mizukage falls to the floor. Sasuke turns to Karin.
Sasuke: We’re leaving Karin.
Karin: Y-yes Sasuke-kun…
Karin thinking: He didn’t even hesitate to kill her…. Sasuke.. I don’t know you anymore…
Mizukage: Chojuuro I’m thirsty!
Sasuke & Karin look back shocked!
Chojuuro: But… I don’t want…
Mizukage: I said come here Chojuuro!!! Don’t worry I won’t take everything!
Sasuke thinking: How is she still alive?
Chojuuro appears in front of Mizukage. Mizukage grabs Chojuuro by the neck & kisses him. Chakra can be seen leaving his body as he starts to age.
Chojuuro: ARRHHHH!!!!!!
Karin thinking: What is this strange chakra I’m feeling. This is really bad at this rate…
Karin: Sasuke we need to leave right now!
Mizukage releases Chojuuro as he falls to his knees vanishes & reappears in back of Karin & back smacks her across the face knocking her out. A dark chakra can be seen around Mizukage.
Mizukage: None of you are going anywhere! You will tell me everything you know about Akatsuki & Uchiha Madara!
Chojuuro: You took to much Mizukage!
Sasuke looks at Chojuuro who now looks like he’s in his 20s in shock.
Mizukage: O just relax you’re now a man thanks to me. You should be grateful now you’ll be a stronger Shinobi. I only took 8 years or so from you.
Sasuke vanishes using shunshin & reappears above Mizukage coming down with a sword swing. Mizukage side steps dodging the attack & Chojuuru appears behind Sasuke & kicks him in his back.
Sasuke thinking: There both faster than before!
Mizukage spits out more white goo as it splits apart circling Sasuke.
Sasuke thinking: Shit!
Mizukage: There’s no escape now!
The white goo all goes at Sasuke from every direction at the same time. Susano’o appears around Sasuke to block the attack.
Mizukage: O what glorious chakra!!! I’ll devour it all until you’re nothing but a pile of dust!!!

Mizukage’s jaw unlocks like a snake as she bites down on Susano’o. Susano’o shatters & Mizukage can be seen on top of Sasuke.
Mizukage: You really are handsome Uchiha Sasuke.
Mizukage kisses Sasuke & chakra can be seen leaving his body! Out of no where a huge wave floods the area removing Mizukage from Sasuke.
Suigetsu: You son of a bitch how could you leave us like that! This is the last time I save your arse after we kill Danzou we’re going after Kisame & Madara! I don’t want to hear anymore of your bullshit Madara played you like a fool!
Mizukage thinking: Kisame!? Do they really work for Akatsuki? What’s going on here!!

A large bang can be heard as the wall shatters.
Raikage: I found you bitch prepare to die!!!
Mizukage steps in front of Raikage not so fast we all need to calm down & talk for a moment!!! Sasuke is not an ally of Akatsuki!!!
The End: As the battle reaches it’s climax Mizukage steps in to defend Sasuke. What will unfold from all this chaos?!?!
Spoiler By Vengeance From NarutoCentral

Masashi Kishimoto Interview About NARUTO

Read All Masashi Kishimoto Interview

What were you like when you were younger (say in middle school or high school)?
I had manga on the brain, and I was constantly drawing, hardly ever doing my homework. In short, a bit of a brat.

How did growing up in a rural environment influence your manga, or your personality in general?
This is a story set in a slow-paced, relaxed setting, far away from capitalist society. My personality is very slow-paced, too, so that's why I often just barely meet my deadlines for the manga.

I've heard that you were a huge fan of Akira Toriyama's Dragonball and Dr. Slump. What was your favorite storyline in Dragonball? Or, if you prefer, who was your favorite character?
I love all the stories up until the first appearance of Freeza. My favorite character is Kuririn, because he has the most "human" feel, and I really associate myself with him.

When you were young, you were attacked by monkeys. Can you tell us about the experience?
I accidentally stepped on a young monkey, and the alpha male of the group and the mother of the monkey attacked me. Ever since then, I have been afraid of monkeys. But these days, I look back on the incident and realize that the protective, nurturing aspect of the monkey is just the same as what a human would feel.

You grew up next to a military base, and the ninja in Naruto behave something like a military force, with discipline and training. Are you a military enthusiast, and did you ever consider joining the Japanese Self-Defense Force (JSDF)?
I don't really consider myself a military enthusiast. Where I grew up didn't actually have a military base, as Japanese doesn't have a military, just a Self-Defense Force. What I did was use the training ground for the SDF as reference, in addition to books on the Mossad and the SAS. I never wanted to join the JSDF, as I wanted to draw manga.

I've heard that you were most inspired by Akira -- the anime, and the manga by Katsuhiro Otomo. Why is this, and what inspired you?
I consider Akira (1988) to be the first Japanese anime to use the "fresco" style of art. Unlike the other works during that time, the character designs, lines, and sense were very realistic, as was the manga itself. Even the buildings were very detailed, and the sheer amount of information that the art conveyed was incredible. It was a very cool science fiction manga. I think it's also the reason anime became so popular in the U.S. I got a bunch of storyboards for Akira when I was 14, and remember constantly copying them.

What was it like going to art school? What was the most useful thing you learned there?
I trained in plaster mediums and the drawing of the human body to increase my skills as a design artist. I also learned graphic design, coloring, and perspectives. Manga is still an art form that you pick up by yourself -- that's the current reality of the Japanese manga industry. Although the drawing skills that I learned in art school were quite useful, I had the abilities of drawing and perspective prior to entering art school. Thus, going to art school was more of a step backward for me.

What was it like being "trained" to be a professional manga artist fro Weekly Shonen Jump? What kinds of things did you learn?
Of course, art is a big part of being a manga artist, but equally important is being able to write a story well. I do pretty much everything by myself, from the characters to the story to the backgrounds. Also, receiving advice from the editor is important, but I think getting a good editor who is supportive of you is key.

You played baseball as a kid, and at one point you considered making a baseball manga. Do you still follow baseball? If so, what is your favorite team?
I love playing baseball, but I don't really like watching it. I don't have a favorite team in Japan. If Japan had major league teams as impressive as the Americans, I might have a team I would root for.

I've heard that you are a fan of traditional Japanese adventure stories. Do you like chanbara eiga [sword fighting movies set in Japan's feudal period] or historical fiction?
I like chanbara, but the recent chanbara films don't have the feel that the older movies have, and I'm not a big fan of the recent ones. I'm hoping a much cooler director comes out and creates an awesome chanbara film. (In Japan, chanbara films are typically produced by aging directors who are completely behind the times. It's difficult for new directors with fresh ideas to be accepted by the old-school Japanese film industry.)

Especially since the early 1980s, ninja have been very popular in American movies and comics. Have you been inspired by any American ninja stories?
I know a little bit about the popularity of Sho Kosugi [star of many action movies] during that period, as well as the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I'm happy, from the perspective of someone from Japan, to see the new way ninjas are perceived in America. Although I hear there are some people who are upset about how the entire "ninja mythology" has been screwed up because of it.

This may be an American misconception, but when I think of "ninja" I think of figures wearing completely black outfits, usually with masks. But the ninjas in Naruto look completely unlinke this old stereotype. How did you come up with the interesting "Konoha Style" of the ninjas in Naruto?
If I created a world that recycles the traditional concept of a ninja it would have ended up just like all the other ninja manga. I wanted to create a ninja world with a twist, something fresh, so I completely threw out the preconceived notions of what a ninja should be like. Besides, Naruto is a blond-haired ninja wearing yellow clothing, who is supposed to be part of a secret intelligence gathering organization. There's no way that a ninja who stands out that much would really exist. (laughs)

Samurai are of almost equal fame to ninja, and in pop culture, in some ways, they seem like the opposite of ninja -- forthright instead of sneaky. Are there any powerful samurai in the world of Naruto, or are ninja the overwhelmingly dominate power in this world?
I do have a few samurai characters: Zouri and Waraji (although they're kind of "lame" samurai). But there are way too many samurai manga out there, so to stay original I'll continue the ninja stories.

The character Jiraiya, who appears in Naruto, is based on a legendary ninja. Is Naruto inspired by any other particular legends?
Jiraiya is about the only character who is like that; the others are all original.

Your work seems to have a science fiction influence. Approximately speaking, what is the level of technology in the world of Naruto?
Actually, the world of Naruto doesn't differ very much from our present time. Television, refrigerators and air conditioners exist in the world. The only exceptions are weapons and explosives, which I've decided to set in a much earlier era. That's why you don't see firearms in the world of Naruto.

Many Shonen Jump manga have puns for character names, so can you explain some puns in the name of Naruto characters? I know that Naruto is a world for the spiral fishcakes in ramen... But I've also heard of a place off the sea of Japanese called the Naruto Uzumaki (the Naruto whirlpools), like Naruto's first and last name.
Uzumaki (spirals) are a very cool Japanese pattern. Weekly Shonen Jump's philosophy for naming characters is to create a name that the readers can easily associate with the character, by combining it with puns and gags.

How did you develop the chakra power system in Naruto? Are you interested in East Indian mysticism?
I actually have no interest in East Indian mysticism. I need a hook to tie in those points in the story when the characters would use powers that were beyond normal human capabilities. The term is chakra, which is used as an explanation for readers to better understand the powers. It's similar to "the Force" in Star Wars, or chi (aka ki) in Dragonball, or "magic points" in RPGs.

How did you develop the mystic hand gestures used by the ninja in Naruto?
As an alternative to the standard verbal method of casting spells, like in RPGs, the ninja use hand gestures instead.

In Naruto, the frog seems to be associated with the character Naruto. Also, in an early drawing you associate the snake with Sasuke, and the snail with Sakura. What about these animals caused you to connect them with these characters? Are ninja associated with frogs in Japan?
When you talk about ninjas, you invariably talk about frogs. There is a ninja manga whose main character is "Hattori-kun," who (as a joke in the story) does not like frogs, so this connection between ninjas are frogs is a close one [in Japanese Folklore, frogs are considered magical animals, and the oil from a frog's skin is a traditional ointment for wounds and other ailments]. The triad of snake, snail and frog is from Japanese mythology. The snake is more powerful than the frog, the snail is more powerful than the snake, and the frog is more powerful than the snail, making a "paper, rock, scissors" sort of situation. These three are collectively called the Sansukumi.

What inspired you to do a story about a demon fox? What interests you about kitsune (foxes)?
Because the kitsune (fox), in particular the kyubi no yôko (Nine-Tailed Fox), is considered to be one of the most powerful supernatural beasts.

What is the relationship of Naruto and the demon fox? Was the demon fox killed and reincarnated inside of Naruto's body, or was it sealed inside the baby Naruto without dying? Are there two souls within Naruto's body, in the mystical sense, or is it more like two personalities, in the psychological sense?
The demon fox has been sealed inside of Naruto without having been killed. It's because the Nine-Tailed Fox couldn't be killed, so they had no choice but to seal it away... probably... which is why there are two personalities inside of Naruto.

Do you get more fan letters from boys or girls? Do boys and girls like different things about the series?
Fan letters are typically written by girls, as it seems that "boys don't write letters." About 90% of the fan letters seem to be from girls, even though the majority of reader are supposed to be boys. It was like that when I used to read Weekly Shonen Jump as a kid, and apparently it's the same today.

Naruto and Sasuke kiss (accidentally) in the first chapter where they appear together. Does this add a special dimension to their rivalry?
I didn't have any particular reason for it, other than to surprise the readers. I mainly did it because I don't think there has ever been a manga where two rivals have kissed. Also, by having this encounter, it was easier to set up the love triangle: Sakura, who had intended to be the first one to kiss Sasuke, has it stolen by her rival Naruto. Sasuke and Naruto are rivals, so there's added tension there. And so on and so fourth.

Is there ever going to be a manga adaptation of Ichalcha Paradise [Make-Out Paradise]?
NEVER.

In closing, what advice would you give to fans who are interested in becoming artists themselves?
Creating manga isn't just about drawing well, but writing a good story. Keep the art and story real, and you can't lose. Also, watch a lot of good Hollywood movies. Those who rail against the entertainment industry are just being close-minded.

What to Expect in NARUTO in 2009

Start of Kishi Interview Spoilers

1. Akatsuki Leader’s(not confirmed if its Pein / Madara) strength can’t be matched even with 3 Sannins of the leaf.
–> Currently Pein seems to be the leader. However, Madara has been seen to play an increasing role in terms of behind the scenes management of the team.

2. There is another character in Akatsuki, and unexpected member will bring a chaos
–> Is he talking about Madara? Or Sasuke as he is now a member of Akatsuki.

3. One of the Akatsuki’s member becomes friend/ally with Naruto
–> Is he talking about Itachi as he has supposedly given Naruto part of his powers before he died.

4. Naruto’s seal will be released by the end of 08, or beginning of the 09. At least 4 tails will be released, be prepared it could be shocking scene
–> 4 tails have been released. Seen that….no big deal.

5. Toad dies(he laughs)
–> Is he talking about Fukusaku or Jiraiya?

6. Three (3) of Naruto’s important people will die or get seriously injured
–> Jiraiya is dead. Kakashi is already seriously injured. So now just a matter of whether he will be dead in the next chapter. Tsunade still pending though a lot of people are saying that her time has come. Question is: Who will be Hokage of Konoha then if Tsunade dies? So my prediction here is that Kakashi will die while Tsunade will be injured and Danzou will take this opportunity to takeover the Hokage title from Tsunade.

7. Sasuke’s skills cannot be matched against Naruto’s new skills.
–> We have not seen this yet and obviously those 2 years with Jiraiya have yet to show its results. More kage bunshin stuff while Rasenshuriken was helped by Kakashi. Maybe sage mode will yield surprising effects? Also, Jiraiya’s restrictions on Naruto?

8. Sasuke v. Itachi is great scale, and later Naruto’s information about family and bloodline will show up
–> Done for Sasuke vs Itachi. But Naruto’s family is slowly being revealed while his bloodline (he has a bloodline limit?) has not yet been covered.

9. Sai, he will cause something huge(laughs)
–> Not sure what this is

10. 4th’s secret and bloodline will be shown
–> Not yet but I suppose once this happens, Naruto will most likely follow suit with his bloodline limit as well. As this moment we are still not sure what is the ability unless Kishi is talking about the teleportation.

11. 2 huge characters of Konoha will die.
–> Jiraiya and either Kakashi or Tsunade. At least we know both of them won’t die but I’d rather see Tsunade dead than Kakashi.

12. There is a female member in Akatsuki
–> Konan

13. Akatsuki will invade Konoha with its mysterious beasts, and Shiranui Genma will provide great help to Konoha
–> Not sure what this is yet but it’s surprising to see Genma providing help when he has not been given that many roles throughout Naruto.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Uchiha’s secret will be revealed and 2 of the remaining will die
–> Uchiha’s secret of MS and etc revealed by Itachi, and Itachi is dead.

2. Akatsuki’s leader kills 6 people (Does this mean Pein is the confirmed leader?)
–> Bodycount is still increasing although we have Jiraiya down. Big catch for Pein.

3. Sasuke and Itachi’s fight will cause chaos; Uchiha, Uchiha Madara’s secrets are revealed and all the skills of the MS will be revealed. The fight will end with death of one.
–> MS : Tsukuyomi, Amaterasu, and finally Susano’o

4. Naruto will collide with Pain; Kakashi’s team will collide with Tobi. There will be big turnaround on Tobi v. Kakashi’s team. Naruto v. Pain will be fights of the “beasts”. Be prepared, during this fight there will be deaths from Naruto’s team.
–> Meaning Kakashi will not die. So most likely Tsunade?

5. Three new members will join the Akatsuki. They will be stronger than Deidara, Hidan, and Kakuzu. One of them is the brother/sister of the Hokage
–> So assuming Tsunade dies and Danzou were to try and organize a coup to takeover Konoha as Hokage, he fails and flees. Then Danzou joins Akatsuki and revealed as the brother/uncle to Tsunade. Sounds believable? I believe so. Danzou the brother/uncle to Tsunade.

6. Naruto’s new skills and the result of the training will reveal when he fight against Pain. He have learned all of the Jiraiya’s jutsu during the 3 years of the time and he became much stronger. He did not learn the “toad mode or w.e u call it”. Naruto also learned 3 of the 4th’s jutsus.
–> So Naruto will eventually master all of Jiraiya’s techniques but hasn’t been shown yet. He has mastered Rasenshuriken which essentially surpasses the 4th’s rasengan. The other 2 techniques could be teleportation or something to do with Minato’s bloodline limit since Naruto is his son.

7. After all these fights, there will be a great war
–> We shall see

8. There will be death on Tobi v. Naruto team and one of them becomes unable to fight.
–> I wonder who……

9. Jinchuuriki of the 8 tailed will be revealed. This Jinchuuriki kills one of the Akatsuki’s members and invades Konoha by him/herself. During this fight one dies, and one will lose his/her eyesight
–> Killerbee invades Konoha? This is surprising. Wonder what is the story or motivating factor that pushes Killerbee to fight Konoha.

Masashi Kishimoto Interview by Naruto Collector

CLICK Images to Enlarge


Naruto Collector: If you weren't the creator of Naruto and were simply a fan of the manga, which character's poster would be your first choice to put up in your bedroom?

Masashi Kishimoto: I'd prefer a female character, so maybe Tsunade, and maybe one of Naruto performing the Ninja Centerfold Jutsu. And Gaara....he's one of my favorite characters. (I posted a little about that last night but didn't notice he was talking about posters, not favorite characters.XD)

NC: If you were a ninja, to which village would you belong? And what would your signature jutsu be?

MK: Of course, I would be from Konoha. I'd master the Art of the Shadow Doppelganger Jutsu, so I can shorten the amount of time I spend on drawing.

NC: Would that give you more sleeping time?

MK: Hopefully, because I'm really sleep deprived....

NC: If you were to do a spin-off series that focused on one of the side characters (or a group of side characters) (were they hoping for Akatuski?) , who would it be?

MK: I'm thinking about doing one with the Fourth Hokage as the lead character. He'll be much younger. I intend to draw the Fourth as a child.

NC: In America, your manga is sold in bookstores that don't even carry other manga or comics. So in a way, it has actually changed how some bookshops sell books. How do you feel about that?

MK: I've been in Japan this whole time, so I don't know much about what's happening in America. But I'm really glad that Naruto is getting so much attention. It's a great honor. I think Americans know what's good (laughs).

NC: Which member of the Akatsuki is your favorite to draw?

MK: Hmm, let's see....Tobi. His face is covered on one side and has a hole on the other. He's easy to draw (Laughs).

NC: We know a lot about Naruto, Itachi, Gaara and Kakashi, but does Sakura have dark secrets we don't know about yet?

MK: She's a normal girl, so I haven't given it much thought.

NC: How did you change your drawing style to fit the new characters and storyline of Naruto Part II?

MK: In Part II, I try not to overdo the typical manga style. I don't go for too much deformation and keep the layout of the panels simple in order to make it easier to follow. My drawing style has also shifted from the classic manga look to something a bit more realistic.

NC: Many of the older Konoha Village ninja are dying. How do you feel about the younger ninja taking over the responsibilities for the safety and welfare of the village?

MK: It's the same in manga. There are a lot of great manga artists that I admire, beginning with Osamu Tezuka, Shotaro Ishinomori, Fujio Fujiko, etc. I'm not their blood relative, but they influence me in ways that seem as though they've been passed on through genes and are spreading like a ripple. To inherit a legacy and pass it on...I think that's wonderful. Whatever I've inherited from people in the past or those whom I call my predecessors, I'd like to put into perspective and depict in the manga. I think people can identify with it. At least that's my view.

NC: It makes the story very epic.

MK: For instance, I really love the work of Toriyama-sensei (Dragon Ball) and Otomo-sensei (Akira), and Ghost in the Shell, so you can tell how much they influenced me. In turn, younger artists will be influenced by the manga I draw. Such a world, I think, is really cool. The idea of passing a baton in a relay, so to speak, is something that I hope to portray in manga.

NC: Did you map out the entire plot of Naruto right from the beginning, or do you find yourself making new choices about characters and storylines as you go?

MK: I've already decided on the overall plot, but depending on the flow, I change the direction in which it's going right in the middle of things. Sometimes I just make it up along the way, and other times I do what I orginally intended to do. It's a weekly installment, and I have deadlines. I'm not always able to do everything I wanted to do. My private life and how my hours are spent ultimately will have an influence on the story. That's what it comes down to. Having a new editor affects the story too.

NC: What is the most important thing for you to express in Naruto Part II?

MK: I've always had "bonds" in my mind as the fundamental theme. And since the story is about battles and struggles, I'm inclined to depict the resulting complications and....difficult relationships. Still, the emphasis will be on bonds. I'm going to show each side's perspective. I won't really divide the cast into friends and foes, but I want to portray each group's circumstance in a fair manner. And when they clash, I want to get inside the mindset of the characters. It won't be a feel-good narrative, since the premise is more complicated than your basic good vs. evil, but I'll give it a try.

NC: Do you have any message for your fans in the U.S.?

MK: I have no idea how big Naruto is or how it's perceived in America, yet it's such a joy to hear that a lot of people read it. And I hope you keep on enjoying it. If you read it until the end, I promise that it's going to be worthwhile. So please, don't get bored. Keep going! Thank you very much.
