Naruto Manga chapter 396 discussion.

[MasterTragedy]

I think Cane may be right as to why Kakashi activated MS.

I'm gonna LOL so bad if Itachi does turn out not being such a bad guy as most assumed. I'm still neutral on the matter, but this upcoming evidence will either make or break the "Itachi is a good boy theory".

[San Goku]

If Madara trains Sasuke he's gonna be the greatest ninja in the narutoverse, just thought I say that.

[Uchihaeyez]

Damn.

Hopefully the next few chapters are Itachi flashbacks, and we get to see the reason behind the madness.

[IonRom]

Why would Madara share his power by training Sasuke?
And Sasuke wants to kill him. It' s not the begining of beautifull friendship.
Anyway Sasuke is still wounded aparently without CS and only Sharingan activated in his eye.
Why Uchihaeyez ? Let' s stay in the present. I want to see the face behind the mask, Naruto going back to the village.
I am tired of the Uchiha clan.

[btsilver]

anybody else notice he has an eyepatch on his left?

[Lord_Sasori]

Well this chapter was amazing I will help Apack12 build a time machine to speed up the process.


Anyways, few interesting things to note...

-Kakashi used his MS to teleport the team that was awesome.

-This chapter puts another nail into the tobito theory's coffin. I mean we kinda knew for half a year now that Tobi was Madara.. for he even said so himself. But now at the end of the chapter it says Tobi/Uchiha Madara which it has been saying for quite some time.

Madara also looks like he is wearin a skull cap, and he definitely is an older man.

What gets me though is when Madara says the following, " I am not your foe". Surely I would thought Madara wanted to take his eyes, but if he is being all nice to him, then he must have a much worst sinister plan.

kakashi didnt use his ms to teleport them...lol. It is clearly shown that the ran to the forest and were blocked by the amaterasu. The yamato uses his jutsu and kakashi says "alright, everyone else follow me". Not follow me into the worm hole, follow me to the spot where kiba smells sasuke's scent. It hasnt been that long since the kakashi deidara chase fight, i doubt he could've mastered it that well in such a short period of time.

It always pisses me of how the chapters are always left on a cliff hanger! i mean honestly finally Tobi takes of his mask and some questins can be anwnsered then.......BAMM chapter ends TT.TT it makes me sad

[Lee Son]

well so now madara knows more about itachi than sasuke.... so what does this mean? and who is madara i want to see his face? and whats up with the 1 sharingan sasuke had WTf kishi Why do you torment me with these fucking questions????????

[SilentSneeze]

It seems to take Kakashi a while to activate his MS so he probably activated it knowing they were going to the same place the uber fast sharingan user they'd just got schooled by was going and didn't want give him any extra time to escape so made sure he was ready for any confrontation.

lol at Narutos "I won't screw up this time", fast forward a few pages and he's stood in the place Sasuke was lay with no idea where he is, that notion of not screwing up didn't last long did it, poor lad.

If the focus remains on the Madara/Sasuke convo then the next few chapters are gonna be epic.

[MasterTragedy]

Either that's a crazy straight eyebrow or that's an eye patch...and tobi has the same eyelid as Madara had when he was younger. It is looking like hes really madara but Im waiting until the mask is all the way off before I concede defeat.

[zamimaro]

he will have only one eye okay... the other side of his face, damaged... does not sound like obito? lol...

Or it could be wound from a 2 by 4 given to him by First.

[psalmjcc]

It will just be the string holding the mask of tobi/madara... It's no eye patch or something of that nature...

[Kraker2k]

I hope this doesnt turn into ANOTHER rescue Sasuke arc... Just wow.

[scandalous]

This was a real sick chapter. It was very fast paced and very exiting.
I really liked how kakashi ordered his troops to move, he was supprised and shocked yet he always thinks rationally. Yamato once again showed why he is a beast with his wood and hinata showed how er byakugan improved as she can see to an impressive range.

I really wonder what sasuke is thinking. It seems he is realising that kakashi was right when he told sasuke that killing itachi would only leave an emptiness. Sasuke really seemed down untill tobi told him he was going to say something about itachi.

Also I find i quite cool that kakashi activated his mangekyou sharingan instanly without the handseals.

And it was really cool how sasuke locked his left eye sharingan at tobi and keeping the other eye normal.

[Woodrow]

i thought kakashi activated ms in preparation for a potential rematch w/ tobi, since now he knew he was up against another sharingan user.

as for the tobi/obito theories... i think madara's either a body-hopper (the final technique born of EMS being an immortality jutsu), or it's danzou and he's been playing possum all this time. maybe its some combo of the two? danzou is the clark kent to tobi's superman?

i def. think danzou is involved somehow. physical appearances aside, the first and madara fought because they disagreed on madara's ideals in regard to konoha (even though those ideals have never been specified). danzou despises the hokage because her ideals conflict with root.

perhaps a root-style society has been madara's goal for konoha all this time, and after losing to the first, he's been working on both the inside (as danzou and with root) and the outside (the kyuubi, akatsuki) to achieve his goals.

enh... who the hell knows...

[The J-man]

I hope Naruto finally gives up on Sasgay.
