Pain's technique isn't effective on Naruto and backfires on Pain.
Hinata barely survives.
Tsunade tells Sakura to evacuate everyone.
Yamato, Anko and Sai are outside the village, searching for Kabuto, when they become aware of Naruto's disaster. Yamato knows Naruto is in 6 tails mode and has lost the necklace. (you can see KN6 breaking the necklace in the first panel of the first pic I posted
Pain and Naruto leave the village. When Deva is close enough from Nagato, he prepares his new jutsu : Chibaku Tensei (Earth's Explosion of the Heavenly Star)

Next week, KN's energy is extinguished by Pain. Next time: "Chibaku Tensei"

Some observations : Anko is back ! and Hinata lives ! And Sai isn't with Danzou after all.
There is no necklace anymore. Either Naruto overcomes Kyuubi and gets back in control or it will be Pain's win.
Deva is pretty much fucked up and lost half of his cloak. I guess his time is up.

I guess now is the time that Naruto finally learns how to control Kyuubi. His power will finally overcome Pain's and Pain will eventually die while Naruto will swear to bring the kind of peace Jiraiya believed in as he avenges his former master.

You coooould say that...

Or you could say that Nine tails wants something chewy to NOM on, so Pein looks quite delicious...

So he go RAWR in total rampage while Hinata gasps for air :D

The amulet's no use anymore,so while 6-tails is on rampage I guess Hinata could die, Sakura would capture her soul with a medical jutsu and yamato would make a new amulet for Naruto in time to stop him before he kills the universe!
^ Best thing I could come up with, naruto couldn't control his 4 tails so getting to master 6 is not very probable. Backup's here so they might as well help him,no?

BS.

Something tells me that after all this destruction and disaster and the fact that Naruto almost lost his closest companions, will prompt him to leave the village and on journeying meets up with Killerbee who then shows him how to commune with his bijuu or some shit like that. We'll see

HA! I knew Hinata wasn't gonna die, I was right to slap my friend back of his head for even thinking shes dead.

I know exactly whats gonna happen, so I dont knw if I should put it in a Spoiler tag

well... either Itachi's Power he gave Naruto is gonna activate, or Sasuke/8tails shows up. Or I could be totally wrong.

Short summary :

Pain's jutsu isn't working on Naruto.
Rather damaging Pain himself.

Hinata is barely alive.

Sakura is told to evacuate everyone.

Outside Yamato, Anko and Sai are searching for ?Kabuto?
Yamato becomes aware of Naruto's situation.

Next week: Pain standing agianst Kyuubi's energi.
"Chibaku Tensei".

There we go :D, There we go :D, there we go :D!!

HA! I knew Hinata wasn't gonna die, I was right to slap my friend back of his head for even thinking shes dead.

(thanks naruto gods:D)

ahhnhhh. mental satisfaction. Now gotta hope she survives 6 tails. It would be sweet if she was the one to calm him down and control his heart with her sexyness. It's also anoying to think that naruto could take out all other pein bodies and six tails cant take out one. If naruto is OVERPOWERED by pein than this will be the stupidest thing ever.
I don't mind if Pein wins, I just think that it would be stupid to make him stronger than even 2/3rds of the 9 tails. Thou I don't see naruto brining this under control himself. Especially when he broke the neklace.

Seeing Hinata getting hurt so bad. After she confessed that she loves Naruto , triggered so much anger within Naruto. That he skipped the 5 tail and went 6 tail, he just let it go with pure anger/rage.

So its official, Naruto has no controle over this Kyuubi?

the necklace that was given to him was broken, so Kyuubi Naruto is uncontrollable now....it seems that KN6 has locomotion unlike KN4, i would post the pic but that would be too much manga material...he is dodging an attack however in the end Pain took his cloke off and is going to do a fobidden jutsu.

i kinda of expected it, i dont see a rampaging KN6 defeating Pain and going to town on everyone else.

Chibaku Tensei (地爆天星) means "Earth's Explosion of the Heavenly Star" or simply put, "Supernova".

As for Yamato, the number 6 appears in his hand, and he realizes that Naruto has gone into KN6 mode.

Bleh, as if any anime/manga writer ever wrote out a scenerio where they make it look like a character died, then revealed that they were still alive, only to kill them off moments later... ya the fact that she survived the death scene proves that she will live on for a long time

i so did not see this coming [/sarcasm]

As i thought kishi proves that he has no balls...
And that Pain apparently has no idea where a person's vital points are... he can kill tons of people, s-class ninjas, innocent bystanders, every man woman and child and enemy might have had contact with, and frogs... but has no idea how to kill an unconscious girl

Wow. Anko, Sai and Yamato weren't forgotten about. I think it's interesting that this was the team assigned to search for Kabuto. It kind of makes sense given that they've probably had the most contact with Oro in the past (Anko having been a former student, Sai sent as an agent to Oro's lair and Yamato former experiment + having recently seen Kabuto).

Yamato getting involved could mean that he'll stop Naruto before he starts doing harm to the good guys, but I'm hoping Naruto has a revelation here and actually manages to push back the Kyuubi transformation willingly.


Ahahahahaha.... Pain stabbed Hinata's Breast????.... :heh: :heh: :heh:

Lol, y'know, the term "breast" doesn't always mean boobs, it can simply mean the chest too.


And that Pain apparently has no idea where a person's vital points are... he can kill tons of people, s-class ninjas, innocent bystanders, every man woman and child and enemy might have had contact with, and frogs... but has no idea how to kill an unconscious girl

Or maybe Pein just didn't want to/care about killing her. He definitely doesn't have a problem with murder, but he's still not exactly bloodthirsty like Hidan or Zabuza. He decided not to finish off Kakashi after all.

Pain's mass murder is not bloodthirsty, if for no other reason than he does not enjoy murdering people. Rather, Pain is a merciless killer, taking out anyone and anything that gets in his way. Not killing Hinata makes little sense considering his previous MO. So, it is not that Pain delibrately missed her heart (considerig that he was aiming for her chest), but rather, much the same as Kakashi, she moved just enough, that her lung was pierced instead. Or, at least that is my take on the events in question.

No matter what, though, getting stabbed in the lung is extremely bad and extremely critical. She has maybe 10 minutes to live before she suffocates on her own blood.

He did try to finish off kakashi, hence the nail to the head thing... by the time he realized Kakashi was still alive, God realm had already left the scene, and only a badly damaged barely able to move Cyborg Pain was left; and that thing could not even finish off chouji after the missile attack failed... and only reason he would not go back is because it was too far out of the way and he's got a kyuubi to track down; he'd never leave kohona if he took the time to kill every last one of them

He treats his enemies like you would treat a bug, he doesn't care one lick about their existence, and will squash them thusly... if he says he kills someone then they are dead... he's a guy who would kill every man, woman and child that was even remotely related to foe... as such he would not spare hinata, and would kill her just to make naruto feel pain (which is his goal to do to just about everyone)...

Please Kishimoto, don't kill Hinata. And if you do, please kill Sasuke too, that would make up for it.

What I was saying is that once Kakashi was incapacitated and near death, Pein was content with that. He feels no need to confirm every kill. I think it's like james said, he wasn't purposely trying to spare Hinata but if for some reason his attack wasn't immediately fatal I don't think he'd care. Proving his point to Naruto is the main goal, as long as Naruto suffers by thinking Hinata's dead, it shouldn't make a difference if Hinata's actually lingering a bit.

It's probably just Pein didn't care about killing Hinata in the first place. It's not like he's been that precise in aiming with those blades, he mainly uses them to mess up the opponent's chakra.


Exactly what Pein's lawyer would say...

Lawyer: Now Hinata, show the court on this doll where exactly Mr.Pein stabbed you...

If thats the case, then its bad writing, for that would contradict the whole "heart of blades" thing Pain uses on every foe he faces.

With the relatives of Hanzou it is actually a smart thing to avoid potential threats of revenge, it's like Jehu from Kings in the Bible he killed all of Ahaz's relatives and friends.

considering the revelations so far from the raws of 438, I have been reminded of something very important that everyone needs to consider:

the japanese see the concepts of romance and love in particular from an entirely different perspective from westerners - who make up the vast majority of those participating in english-language forums like this one. granted, they have assimilated a number of things from western culture with respect to those concepts in the post WW2 era, but their foundation is still uniquely japanese. it behooves those of us who are not intimately familiar with that way of thinking to not color things too much with the western romantic ideology.

it is quite possible that if Hinata survives, it may in fact bring the naruhina relationship to fruition. It depends in large part on both her survival and continued love for naruto despite his burden, and might signal a return of kishi's attention to the development of the rest of the cast for awhile. matter of fact, I think sakura in particular is taking on more and more of a sisterly relationship with naruto (and in retrospect I think that die has been cast since the beginning).

Like i said... he kills anyone who threatens his goal...
What he did to Konoha is his eyes was justice...
and you can tell if you read his convo wit Tsunade...
Konoha (along with other villages) had the same thing to his village...
The millions that may die from his jutsu is what he believes is necessary to attain PEACE...
People who have power can understand words...
especially when it isn't beneficial to them...
But they understand overwhelming power....
Those who die are only the ones who the village is willingly to sacrifice for power.. war.. and etc.
What he did in the Hanzou situation was smart....
He eliminated all possible threats... Hanzou loyalist...
When a King has fallen... the warriors of that kingdom become servant to their children as the heir to the throne...
Same thing applies with the Hanzou loyalist ... so he killed to prevent it...
simple as that
So stop hatin on Pein's awesome kickassness

He treats his enemies like you would treat a bug, he doesn't care one lick about their existence, and will squash them thusly... if he says he kills someone then they are dead... he's a guy who would kill every man, woman and child that was even remotely related to foe... as such he would not spare hinata, and would kill her just to make naruto feel pain (which is his goal to do to just about everyone)...

Yep and that is how Pain wants the world to feel.

BTW fellas, it isn't over, not yet Pain is gonna use that forbidden Jutsu and put an end to this stray!!

Personally, I'm psyched that Hinata is still alive because now there is some very real hope of a bit of NaruHina development! Now that she's confessed, they might actually become a couple at some point. I would be very happy as a Hinata fan for her to finally get Naruto's attention.

In my opinion, since there are so few official pairings in Naruto that actually get attention, it might be interesting. Yeah, I know it's not exactly a relationship manga, but even a little would be nice.

S-rank fight? :confused: The battle has been S-rank right from the beginning.
It was right from the start a battle that only S-ranked Akatsuki members or Kages could deal with.

Even the S-ranked missions that Kakashi once in a while gets probably have battles that are definetly below this battle. Though those missions are probably more focussed on spying on enemy ground, scrolls (info), assasination or the capture of someone important.

There's much more romance driven plot then in dragon ball. In DB there was no lengthy introduction to the relationship, they just suddenly married and had children. There were hints, but there were no love triangles and evolving relationships. The Naruto-Hinata part is similar to Goku-Chichi, Sakura is like Bulma, good friend to Naruto and smart girl to think instead of Naruto. Sasuke is like Vegita :) If Pain is Freeza then this is the Freeza vs Goku fight where we see SSJ Naruto , that is Sage Naruto or maybe even Kyuubi-Sage-Naruto. Since SSJ Goku was definitely stronger then Freeza it may be that there will be a SuperSageKyuubi Naruto who will be stronger then Deva Pain :)

With the relatives of Hanzou it is actually a smart thing to avoid potential threats of revenge, it's like Jehu from Kings in the Bible he killed all of Ahaz's relatives and friends.

however this includes all non-ninjas and people who couldn't possibly hope to oppose him... by this logic just about everyone in world, if a "potential threat" as they will all eventually want revenge against him... hell right now every single person in kohona wants revenge against him.

What he did to Hanzou was making a point, that those who fight will suffer... because of the role Hanzou played in the world everyone he has every known suffers... if you fight everyone you ever know will suffer... This is what Pain is about, he is all about showing people pain and making them suffer fore he sees that as the path to peace

And this would include Hinata; he "killed" for no other reason than to make naruto suffer... and as i pointed out time and time again in the last thread, there is a big difference between killing someone, and making someone think you killed them; the later of which practically goes against Pain's philosophy

What I was saying is that once Kakashi was incapacitated and near death, Pein was content with that. He feels no need to confirm every kill.
he thought that Kakashi was completely dead cause he saw no way for him to avoid taking a nail to the face... by the time he realized kakashi was still alive he was long gone, and he doesn't exactly have time to clean up every ninja he left behind... had he realized kakashi was still alive before he left he would have finished the job; much like he tried to do with the nail... how he manages to not kill hinata with a single blow is nothing short of plotkai...

Well, not sure how well the those dragonball pairings match up to the naruto one, but it does seem to put out the idea how ridiculous some of the ships have gotten...

-I'll apologize for the upcoming cruelty that I am going to display but I have to get this out of the way. Looking at the spoilers I am catching myself looking at Hinata and thinking "Oh, just die already". As far as I am concerned, if this is a kind of contrived reason to pair off 2 characters I would personally spit at Kishimoto's face. Don't get me wrong, NarutoxHinata is fine by me but if they are going to be together just because she risked her life for him then I'll sooner call this "entrapment" than a reason for a pairing. Should Hinata survive Naruto has no choice but to be with her or if you prefer, he is then "obligated" to be with her. Call me sadistic, vile and vindictive if you must but I'd much rather have Hinata die and exist as a fond memory for Naruto than a living chain that binds him to her. I'm sorry, but if all it takes in the Narutoverse to win the love of your life is to come up and get smacked senseless then Naruto should have "rocked the casbah" with Sasuke right after their fight with Haku and their Orochimaru encounter. And if the yaoi of such a prospect bothers the few of you, then he should have already done it with Sakura after the whole Gaara fiasco. And if this is offending the shippers well I'm sorry but I missed the meeting where life-threatening situation+3 words of affection+magical survival=true love.

I agree with you completely. It seems Hinatra was saved the same way Tsunade was saved from her heart being destroyed by Kabuto in Part I...

Here's hoping that Kishimoto remembers that Goku only went Super when he saw Krillan (or whatever the bald dude's name was) die. So, Naruto going KT6 must mean that Hinata is dead or going to die :).

if Pain was going for the heart it is not that rare for some people to be born with their heart be a few inches off form where it usually is.

So Pain could just miss Hinata's heart by inches because it is actually a inch or 2 more to the right or left.

Way to not read my second paragraph there... I clearly said that i know that's its not a relationship manga. But Kishi, as a story writer, should still be capable of giving us at least a few NaruHina moments. If he can't.... then he's not a very good story writer.

-But don't you find it strange? Hinata is barely alive yet Pain lets her be. Why is he not finishing the job? Why is he taking chances? Sure, he has a crazed 6-tailed monstrosity baring it's teeth at him but surely it doesn't take more than a second to puncture another hole in Hinata's body. For a guy who seems to understand the whole "cycle of hatred and revenge" wouldn't him skipping Hinata's murder go against that?

-On a side note: why is it that every villain imaginable has to stab a person in a area where they might survive? Why not aim at the throat or the head? Its certainly a whole lot quicker.

You mean when Krillen was dead for a short period of time before being resurrected :) In DBZ you don't really die, you just leave the show for a shorter or longer period of time. I would say that DBZ death is equal to being really messed up, and now both Kakashi and Hinata are really messed up, but they'll be back sooner or later.

About the fight: i really like this fight so far, my only problem is that Kishimoto does not want to give Naruto any new type of jutsu, what he has is kagebunshin, rasengan and kyuubi-mode. All that he gets is powerups for all 3 of his abilities, but no new ability. For example Naruto is a wind type, but the only wind jutsu that we see is the rasengshuriken. Even the summoning of the sage-kagebunshins was done by a frog, so in this big fight Naruto never summoned. By restricting the number of jutsu Kishimoto has to make creative combinations, but he can't come up with cool combos every time. The best example was the fight against Kakuzu: Kishimoto simply reused his old kagebunshin trick which he already used in the Zabuza-Haku story or in the chuunin exam fight against Neji.

Okay, crazy fanboy mode: off

Actually, as much as I hate to be a pessimist, I don't think Hinata is entirely out of the woods yet. She could still be mortally wounded and succumb to her injuries, but lets hope not. But at least she's not confirmed dead.

Anyway, aside from Hinata, I like that we'll get to see Yamato, Sai, and especially Anko. Looks to be another good chapter.

2009-03-04, 20:19
one of the things i miss the most is that feeling of seeing anko, the other jounin, etc...
to me Naruto's main character ain't naruto but Konoha itself, as Sandaime said to Orochimaru. Before Pain's arrival, i was thinking in a open war with the whole Konoha's Ninjas facing an army.

It's good to see that Shikamaru and his father are taking responsability for Nagato's search, a little late and off-screen but is what i was missing, Konoha's will of fire... and not only Naruto.

When a manga is centered in one character for too much time, is always fail.

It's not like it would ruin the pace of the manga if he just gives NaruHina 3 or 4 pages, that's all we are asking.

Hey... you're no fun... buuuuhhhh :p
If Kishi kills Hinata she could be like Obi wan kenobi and appear in Naruto's dreams... like a ninja-fairy and such... :heh:

Sakura will live, she is plot protected, the same that the new generation.
To the plot, Sakura has a lot more importance than Hinata, that's a fact, Sakura is the disciple of Tsunade and with Shizune dead, she is her number 2... Sakura doesn't need a love for a protagonist to shine, she has some plot and she has some character development, Hinata it's the same Hinata from before.

Naruto cares for everybody... i bet that he would do the same even for Ten-Ten.

I'm not confusing this in a crappy shipping war here, im not into NaruHina, NaruSaku, NaruSasu, NaruRamengirl or NaruWhatever... but, it's very clear who has some development and some "weight" into the history and who doesn't.

At the moment that Hinata was being owned by Pain, Sakura was attending wounded and previously she just pwned a Pain's summons by herself saving a little child... and Hinata?... ah... she was writting her marriage name "Uzumaki Hinata" :heh:

And now... Hinata is barely living and Sakura is organizing an evacuation...

so please... get real and leave the shipping for the right thread, the lead female (for good or bad) here is Sakura and not Hinata.

There is no turning back with the shipping. Kishimoto went there. Never in a 1,000 years did I expect Hinata to make a love confession right now and have it come at a major time in the manga. During an epic shonen fight no less. It's Kishi himself who is introducing these crazy thoughts of romance. No longer are they just the delusions of fangirls like me. Kishi is now one of us!

Um, no. It was not the Kyuubi that hurt and almost killed Sakura; it was the Kyuubi's basic raw chakra. Yamato specifically stated that the Kyuubi's chakra was lethal unless you build immunity to the chakra by being a Jinchuuriki. So, if a little bit of the Kyuubi's chakra can kill, then how does healing Hinata's with the Kyuubi's chakra make any sense? It's not like the Kyuubi's chakra can all of a sudden stop being the Kyuubi's chakra.

I'm not saying this because I like or dislike any character (though I partially agree with Fran that Hinata dying would be extremely interesting for the actual plot), I am simply clarifying that simply because Naruto might want to save someone that does not make the Kyuubi's chakra any less poisonous.

There is no turning back with the shipping. Kishimoto went there. Never in a 1,000 years did I expect Hinata to make a love confession right now and have it come at a major time in the manga. During an epic shonen fight no less. It's Kishi himself who is introducing these crazy thoughts of romance. No longer are they just the delusions of fangirls like me. Kishi is now one of us!
/Sigh.... you're right...

that's why i hate that DBtard too :heh:

I think that knowing he couldn't save Hinata would be far more interetsing than letting Hinata live only to forget her confession, or letting Hinata live and remembering her confession. I do like the angst and drama though, so I could be biased :).

Well anyways I was jokin.

Now about Hinata being "Healed" or so they say, But it seems that Hinata isnt dead... or atleast "Yet" Well either way, I Can't wait to see SSJ6Naruto kick some ass.

-If the 4-tailed state cause a small dose of amnesia I wonder if the 6-tailed state would cause a much longer span of memory loss? Heck, if that's the case Kishimoto could completely re-do Naruto's character by making him even forget his own name. I'd actually really like that simply because its something different from what we have seen in the manga up to date. Imagine how much closer Naruto could grow to the people he cares about if he spent time with them as a complete stranger.

If Naruto forgot all about Hinata's confession I would be a little disappointed yet I would understand. This is an Action Shounen after all, and "MOST" romance is supposed to be elsewhere, but then again, little can be accepted...

Even though I am 100% on Hinata right now and her survival, I can't help but wonder what ace Nagato has up his scrawny ass right now. For someone who can talk big like that and still look awesome has to ahve something!

About Hinata: that's why i didn't like it from the start, if she lives and Naruto forgives everything, is fail... if he doesn't forgive it's fail too... because Kishi messed up with Naruto's crush on Sakura... Naruto's already an idiot and now Kishi is messing with his head again, who is not capable to process that problem :heh:

Hmm, I haven't been paying attention to Zatsu, so I wonder if he's just gunna end up eating everyone :P

But the Hinata thing IMO was kinda destined to happen, I was just waiting for it. I re-read volume 6 from the Chinnin exams where Hinata and Neji fought. The two had a connection there and even I though it was weird when Naruto touched Hinatas blood and held it to Neji swearing his defeat.

That proved to me something was gunna happen with the two down the road. Also Hinata should be fine since this is nothing compared to when Neji beat the living daylights out of her insides.

I'm also curious to know what Sasuke is going to think. She wanted to destroy Konoha and now it's boomed up. Also, WHERE THE HELL HAS ANKO BEEN!?

Chibaku Tensei (地爆天星) - Surface Burst Heavenly Star.

I assume Chibaku means Surface Burst, since the same kanji combination is used in Chinese for the term. Tensei has the same pronunciation as in Shinra Tensei, but replaces the kanji for "subjugation" with the kanji for "star".

A "Surface Burst" or "Ground Burst" is a type of explosion where the blast is at surface level or just above surface level, such that the radius of the fireball causes a crater and sends a shockwave through the ground. In contrast with an "Air Burst", the overall destructive radius of a surface burst is smaller but the destruction at ground zero is more concentrated. Usually used to describe the type of a nuclear explosion (along with air burst, subsurface burst, and high-altitude burst).

And it is a Kinjutsu...so... that's gonna hurt... it's even more powerful and riskful for Nagato than Shinra Tensei.

I doubt it. No precedent has been set for such an occurence. We know Naruto doesn't remember anything from when he's 3rd tail and beyond, but BEFORE? Well, we haven't seen 6 tails before and we know it can't be good, but I doubt he'll go forgetting. It would render the entire scene pointless, and even Kishi wouldn't do that. I hope.

It's an attack that hurts only those that the caster recognizes as enemies, really advanced stuff! (no I got no proof, just saying:P)
About the Kyuubi-heals-Hinata: Kyuubi chakra is pure evil, whoever gets in touch with it goes in shock or gets hurt, you can't change it by will,hence that part of the story is fake.
About Naruto forgetting everything: of course he can, it would be great if he DID and after Nagato's final nukes he got separated from everyone and Danzou found him all alone,not knowing where he is!

It's not that he is alive....it's just he's not confirmed dead. So until then....he's alive.

Then the spoiler is probably correct then. Naruto made some agreement with the Kyuubi and is having her healed. Kyubbi can do more than destroy things.

I thnk this could be true yes. "If" Naruto and the Kyuubi can communicate normal, like the 8tail bijou with killerbee , it would be possible.

This would also be step-1 with Naruto and Kyuubi of respecting each other.

Good thinking there :)

It has never been about making the Kyuubi do anything. The Kyuubi's chakra kills anyone that does not have immunity to the chakra. Naruto healing Hinata with the Kyuubi's chakra makes absolutely no sense. Hell, Naruto doesn't even know how to heal himself; it is all the Kyuubi, so how the Kyuubi can even heal someone that doesn't have immunity is absolutely ludicrous.

2009-03-05, 02:57
And immunity is limited to Naruto and only Naruto, since he's the host and all...unless he kisses Hinata and passes it on :heh:

Kyuubi was presented as evil since the beginning but with the possible revelation that Madara controlled Kyuubi once before to invade Konoha and passing it off as a "natural disaster" might imply that Kyuubi is not inherently evil or good.

rpgkiller999
2009-03-05, 02:58
While at first this seems out of the blue, Naruto's wound has always been recover and heal by Kyuubi, so Kyuubi does have that power. If the immunity thing is a problem to accept, then think like this: Kyuubi's healing pass through Naruto, who has immunity and filter the charka, then transfer to Hinata. Problem solved. =P

Freya
2009-03-05, 03:02
Yeah....it's not that difficult. Plus if you look at it, the Kyuubi aint a retard. He probably knows whats going on with Naruto and stuff and knows he's going to get his ass raped so agrees to help and be in control and to help heal Hinata.

Why should we be forced to think of it differently? Why not just let Sakura heal her instead of overturning one of the rules regarding the Bijuu? This is needlessly complicated when far simplier answers are present.

Technically if she did die from one stab....then she fails. At least try to hold on till help arrives.....whenever that would be.

it seems... there are capable people looking for him, konoha has solved pretty much of his secret (and pain said that if Jiraiya would know his secret, he was dead), kyuubi is going 6 tail (never seen before), Pain is gonna use Kinjutsu (if Shinra Tensei was riskful, imagine that), Konan already said that he was weaker and weaker... Naruto even has another clone and he has plot on his side (avenging Jiraiya and Konoha and stop this philosophy of Pain).

if Pains manages to leave Konoha, i think that will be in the same condition that Orochimaru pulled back, they did a lot of damage, but they don't achieve any objective.

Oh heck yea, 5 of his 6 body's were distroyed...and from the looks of the manga, god pain looks pretty beat up aswell. Offcourse, Nagato will get new body's . But it sure will take some time, since he first has to pick out "good" body's with certain capability's. Than he has to do the whole proces of chakra recievers, that will take some time also.

I wonder what that Clone is doing.....i mean..what would be Naruto's next plan. Is transforming into the 6-tail all part of his plan? :p

Man, this thread gained a lot of pages quickly...I feel pretty late.


he thought that Kakashi was completely dead cause he saw no way for him to avoid taking a nail to the face... by the time he realized kakashi was still alive he was long gone, and he doesn't exactly have time to clean up every ninja he left behind... had he realized kakashi was still alive before he left he would have finished the job; much like he tried to do with the nail... how he manages to not kill hinata with a single blow is nothing short of plotkai...


Why? Pein stabbed Jiraiya w/ the rod several times and he was still alive when he was sinking in the lake. If you want to say Hinata's case was plotkai shouldn't you ask why Pein didn't aim for Jiraiya's vital spots and killed him instantly to make sure he was really dead. Pein is not someone who relishes the kill, once his opponent goes limp, it's over as far as he's concerned.

The only person it seems Pein's killed using the rod is Fukasaku who has a very tiny body in the first place. I agree Kishi copped out because Hinata not dying instantly means there's a small chance she will be saved (and in shounen a 1% chance means there's a 99% probability it will happen). But IMO, Kishi didn't show any inconsistency with Pein because his strikes haven't always been instantly fatal in the first place.

Offcourse, Nagato will get new body's . But it sure will take some time, since he first has to pick out "good" body's with certain capability's. Than he has to do the whole proces of chakra recievers, that will take some time also.

I kind of doubt Pein gets new bodies at this point. I mean, if he got new bodies they would be given the same abilities as the old ones and it would just get repetitive. Of course, if Nagato has a another set of abilities he could give to the new batch (he has the potential to use any jutsu afterall) then it could be a different story.

It's just the usual power of the mind over matter. Merely the next step of what Kimimaro was doing, living through sheer willpower alone.

Death in a character like Kakashi needs the same amount of ingredientes than Jiraiya's or Itachi's death... we don't have it... i think that he isn't dead, in bad shape but not dead.

About the young age, my example could be wrong but Haku perfectly could live and being a Konoha Ninja thanks to Naruto's noble heart. To me is a reminder of Kishimoto saying: "i can kill everybody..." and i like it. The main issue to the young generation is dealing with death, Shikamaru almost lost his friends trying to catch Sasuke, then saw Asuma's dead and face Hidan... Death is an issue for almost everybody at Naruto: Tsunade has lost almost everything (Jiraiya, Dan, Nawaki, Shizune...), Kakashi lost Obito, Sasuke lost the clan and Itachi, etc...

why? :confused:
There is no obligation to tell Naruto about his parents.

There is no obligation, but why keep it a secret? I mean, they dont have to say it now...maybe when he's Hokage or something?

Than one of them stand up to him and says, your just like your father :). Naruto looks confused , yes Naruto...your father was the 4th and your mother was ..and so on.

again... why?

There is no why really, it wouldnt change him. He could be more proud , in a sort of way.

Besides, he deserves to know who his parents are right?

1. Because every Child has a right to know about his parents and Background

2. Because it would be a case of bad or lazy writing if kishi didn't expand on Naruto's background after throwout that tibit about his parents.

Well, Gaara was quite the villian too... remember naruto's power: he can be friends with his enemies. Even Neji was the villian at first... even now Haku's thoughts are one of the main pillars in Naruto's mind: power to protect, not power to hurt.
That got nothing to do with what we were discussing though, yes they both became good guys and point in case they both survived a situation they shouldn't have.
Just like the Sound 4 and Kimi (who were respectively 14 and 15 years old) Haku stayed an antagoniste to the end and died as a result.
Between Kakashi and Tsundane only 1 is need to live long enough to tell Naruto about his parents.
This information is irrelevant to who live or die. It can be known from others characters anyway.

If that's right, then why nobody didn't tell him that when he was a little kid who was hate for the entire town?... not even Sandaime, not even Jiraiya, not even Kakashi... not even Tsunade...

I can't see a reason (plotwise). If he deserves it... again... why nobody tell him that before.


1. Because every Child has a right to know about his parents and Background

2. Because it would be a case of bad or lazy writing if kishi didn't expand on Naruto's background after throwout that tibit about his parents.

1. Probably in the real life, but this is a fictional history, it must be something else, a reason for why people who really loves Naruto (Tsunade) haven't told him about his parents.
2. Exactly... take for instance Sasuke... maybe the decision was taken for his own protection... look what happen with this whole "kyuubi hunt"...

That's my point... something related to plot is hiding Naruto's past.

Hi long time lurker first time poster :)

As it was suggested earlier in this thread by That Other Ninja “might imply that Kyuubi is not inherently evil or good” I have been thinking the same thing for awhile to be honest, I think the Kyuubi is driven by power and only respects power in others, whenever Naruto has spoken to the Kyuubi in the past the foxes biggest complaint was always about how weak Naruto is, quite often said with a lot of distain.

There has been a lot of talk recently about Naruto learning to work with the Kyuubi in the same way as Killer Bee works, I think to get that sort of relationship with the Kyuubi, Naruto has to get powerful enough in his own right to start being accepted and acknowledged by the Kyuubi as not weak, a main theme in this story is regarding acceptance and being acknowledged by others so this would fit into that for me.

Maybe with all the power ups Naruto has gained recently he is starting to earn some respect from the old fox!
If the above proves to be true I guess Naruto isn’t fully there yet seeing he only went 6 tail’s, but if it is then it’s a hell of a step forward in his development!:D

Okay the raw is out...and there is no way that Hinata could have survived the aborted Kyuubi Lazer Beam/Blast. The entire area where Hinata is was completely destroyed (Pain's cloak was even destroyed). The blast was almost the same size as the one that destroyed Konoha.

And, That being said, finally we can put the stupid rumours that Naruto used the Kyuubi's chakra to heal Hinata to rest. These foolish spoilers could have only been concocted by someone who has a bad memory in regards to how the Kyuubi's chakra works.

Nah, Kishi wouldn't have Naruto kill one of his friends (much less have them completely incinerated), even in Kyuubi form. The mini-raw skips some pages so it's hard to tell what's going on but I think Pein was flung far away from Hinata by the Kyuubi attack to the Hokage monument. Naruto followed and then launched the fireball at him. The Kyuubi fire ball only looks to be maybe a third of the size of the attack that destroyed Konoha. I don't think Hinata was in range of it.

Yeah, Pain and "Naruto" weren't where Hinata lied on the ground at this point.
Pain managed to drop a huge rock on Naruto to interrupt the Kyubi blast so it fell on the ground and exploded before Naruto could ate use it as a projectile.
It was way smaller than a third of Pain's attack though.

Well I did say "about the same size" :). But, you are right, the blast was only about a third the size of the one that destroyed Konoha. I still say that it was close enough to where Hinata was lying to have killed her, but you are correct, Kishimoto does not have the testicular fortitude to kill Hinata, let alone have the Kyuubi kill her.

That being said, besides a splash page, I count 16 pages released so far (17 if you count the catch-up page detailing what has happened in the arc up to this point).

Yeah and I think he's even more reluctant to have Naruto actually kill someone (accidental or otherwise). Hell, Naruto has yet to even kill a bad guy. To have him kill the girl who just attempted to rescue him and confessed her love for him would take cojones the size of grapefruits.

- katsuyu said that konoha is almost destroyed and ask the people to leave.
- anko, sai and yamato are following Kabuto, Sai founds it, but Yamato leaves to konoha.
- pain is running, naruto follows him, but is a TARP!!! (oh noes)
- sakura will use this to get Hinata.
- Here comes Chibaku Tensei >_<

2009-03-05, 23:33
I guess the last time 4-tailed couldn't move as fast as he could was partly because of the necklace. Right now, even the godly Pain cannot escape the wild animal following it. Now that it is gone, there may not be too much limiting factor for Kyuubi to gain even more ground in his battle against Naruto. Good or bad. At least it would be interesting to see, the final form, or the final form before the final.

And, I have always wanted to see what is going on inside Naruto at this moment, when Kyuubi was having the control. The least we can hope to see is the way Kyuubi thinks right this moment. Against Pain, a little bit of intelligence would be perfect. Actually, the moment that Kyuubi can retain this form while Naruto still has his consciousness will be the time that form could create the maximum damage. If Kyuubi can understand that, we can at least enjoy the battle of the final form a bit more. At the end that may also depend on how Naruto loses consciousness, or whether Kyuubi is the one intentionally causing it, to gain full control of the power itself.

And, Hinata, with her survival, will lose everything she has gained within the last chapter. She will be an immediately forgettable hero of the moment. She just needs a little bit of taste of death, Kishi can bring her sometime in the future, in another manga.
