[Manga] Chapter 347 Discussion

[shankss]

while story coming close to swordsman of mist..if we drop kisame-zabuza-raiga out..what happened to other ones? can there be another akatsuki like criminal organization planning things around?

also that emo kid killed someone that even 4 tail-kyuubi naruto wasnt able to..so sasuke is ok in my book now,sooner or later they'll accept him back to konoha if he goes like this.
1-He killed Konoha's worst nightmare orochimaru.
2-Konoha dont like Itachi much so if sasuke kill him its a reason to forgive.

Still you know konoha's idiotic rules that lured white fang to his death..So if i was sasuke i'd never return that place.and thats not making me emo..because searching for power is not weakness..the truth of being emo lies in konoha, just how many useless ninja they will train?

ps: also i always wonder how can people call sasuke emo while "narutard's side" character always having a nice beat up from every villain, while drowning in his emotional inner world covered by flashbacks "youre meh friend dont kill meh!'" and "make meh hokage or i'll jump from hokage monument!"

Yet another Sasuke chapter, hmmm...the little uchiha is getting a lot of story time ain't he , i'm surprise Naruto is even in this chapter and WOW Konohamaru doing a technique that's awesome!

I think this chapter of Sasuke Uchiha: Sharingan Chronicles will be very interesting.... can't wait to see what Suigetsu look like.

水月「まずはボクが・・・じゃあ他は？」
Suigetsu: I’m first…that means there are others?

サスケ「・・・あと二人・・・北アジトの重吾と南アジトの香燐を連れていく」
Sasuke: …two others…I’m bringing Juugo from the Northern Hideout and Karin/Kourin from the Southern Hideout with us.

水月「ホントにぃ？」
Suigetsu: Really?

サスケ「何だ？」
Sasuke: What?

水月「いやね・・・好きじゃないから・・・あいつら。仲良くは出来ないなぁ・・・と、そうね・ ・・思ってね 、へっ・・・」
Suigetsu: No good…I don’t like…them. I don’t think I can get along with them…and, yeah…that’s what I was thinking…

サスケ「特別仲良くする必要は無いが・・・協力はしろ」
Sasuke: You don’t have to get along with them…but you’d better cooperate.

水月「そりゃね・・・助けてもらったんだし、君がそう言うなら協力するのはやぶさかじゃないけ ど・・・ あの二人を選ぶ君もどうかと思うよサスケ」
Suigetsu: Well…you did save me and all, so if you tell me to cooperate with them then I don’t have a problem…but it makes me wonder about you since you’re the one choosing them.

サスケ「ぐたぐたうるさい、服を着ろ行くぞ」
Sasuke: Shut the hell up. Put some clothes on…we’re going.

水月「ハハ・・・エラく上からの物言いだよね・・・」
Suigetsu: Ha ha…you sure do talk like you’re the boss…

サスケの後ろに回ってサスケの脳天に人差し指をつける水月
*Suigetsu then shows up behind Sasuke and points his index finger at Sasuke’s skull

水月「君をボクの関係をハッキリさせておこうか、ねぇ？大蛇丸を倒したからって君が上なわけじ ゃない・・・ ・ みんな狙ってた・・・遅かれ早かれ誰かが殺ることになってたのさ・・・君はお気に入りで監禁さ れることもな く大蛇丸の傍にいた」
Suigetsu: Let’s make sure we’re clear on our relationship here, alright? Just because you beat Orochimaru doesn’t put you above me…we all were after him…sooner or later one of us would’ve killed him…it just happened that you were his favorite so you stayed by his side instead of getting locked up.

サスケ「・・・だからどうした」
Sasuke: …your point?

水月「この状況・・・ボクが有利だ」
Suigetsu: In this situation…I have the advantage.

にらみ合う二人
*The two stare each other down menacingly

水月「なんてね・・・冗談　この状況で心拍一つ乱れない・・・やっぱりマグレじゃなさそうだね 、安心したよ 君が強いのは昔から噂で聞いていたしね。ボクの大先輩桃地再不斬を倒したのも君のいた小隊だっ たんだろ？」
Suigetsu: Whoa…just kidding…even in this situation your heart doesn’t miss a beat…I guess it really wasn’t just a fluke (that you beat him) afterall. What a relief. I heard rumors that you were strong. You were in the group that managed to beat my senior, Momochi Zabuza, right?

サスケ「・・・・・」
Sasuke: …

水月「ついてくよ、ただし二人を連れに行く前に少し寄り道して欲しい所があるんだけどいいかな ？」
Suigetsu: I’ll go with you. But before we go get the other two I have a little side errand I’d like to do. Is that alright?

舞台はナルト達
*Scene change to Naruto and the gang

子供達がナルトの前でおいろけの術を使ってサクラが突っ込み
The kid uses the sexy jutsu in front of Naruto and Sakura chides them for it.

今度は変化の術でサスケと
*He then transforms into Sasuke.

まあ、ちょっとした息抜きでしょう・・・・
*Well, I guess this scene was good for a little breather…

再びサスケ達に戻る
*Scene changes back to Sasuke and Suigetsu

サスケ、ナルト大橋を見つめる
*Sasuke stares at “the Great Naruto Bridge”

サスケ「フン・・・ここだ水月」
Sasuke: Hmmph…this is it, Suigetsu.

水月「こんな所にあったとはね・・・・再不斬先輩、これはボクがいただくよ」
Suigetsu: To think it’d be in a place like this. Zabuza-sempai, I’ll take this.

大剣を抜く
*He then pulls the big blade out of the ground

水月「重い・・・これが血霧の里・・・鬼人再不斬の首斬り包丁か」
Suigetsu: It’s heavy…so this is the head cleaver of the demon Zabuza…from the blood mist village…

サスケ「お前の力で扱えるのか？」
Sasuke: Can you handle that thing with your strength?

水月「忍刀七人衆の刀は代々受け継がれていくシステムだった。七人衆に憧れて修行を積んでいた からね・・・ ボクは この大剣があれば君にも負けないかもね。それに重吾を仲間に加えるならこの刀は役に立つと思う しね」
Suigetsu: The swords of the Seven Swordsmen are passed down from generation to generation. I looked up to the Seven Swordsmen and trained so yeah…with this sword I probably wouldn’t lose even to you. Plus if we’re going to let Juugo join us then I figured that this sword would come in handy.

ぐわあああああ
*GUWAAAAAAAA

女「大蛇丸が死んだからって勝手されちゃ困るんだよォ！　　！このチャクラの感じ・・・・ま・ ・・まさか」
Woman: Don’t think you can just start acting up because Orochimaru died! Th…this Chakra…it…it can’t be…

来週終わり
Next week Over

So Sasuke starts to get his own Sound Four together and we learn a little more about the Seven Swordsmen of the Hidden Mist. Sounds like Suigetsu doesn't like Juugo and Karin. I am not sure who this women is that ends the chapter. I don't think it's Karin yet. Maybe the Blue Hair spying on Sasuke?

-Hmm, is that the actual chapter? Personally I don't really care if it is or not since they would just be getting Sasuke's frame-time out of the way. After all, the story has been moving on a rather "chaotic" pace lately but I digress. Now then, what will happen next.

[rman0099]

Chaotic? There'd be more order if Kishi decided to allow monkeys to throw darts at a wall covered with charater names, settings, and plot devices and then write based on what people, places, and things the darts struck. I think he has either a) let the anime filler team write for him or b) actually took their advice to serve up as much fanservice as possible. Although I am slightly addicted to the chaos. It makes me wanna see how he'll beat up Naruto next

[yinstro]

I find it funny that the guy thinks hes the man with the sword, i mean zabuza lost to kakashi already, and he felt that haku was better than him, and haku lost to 12 year old sasuke and naruto. Great sword uhhhh surreee


Interestingly, people dont seem to impressed with oro. maybe he really wasnt as great a ninja as people thought. Just a big scientist, tactician. If Kishi really develops this story better than he has the last few chapters it could be interesting to see and hear from some new potentially powerful ninjas.

[gibits]

Well i wanted a Sasuke arc and I got it. I still think Kishi could've handled Oro losing better and more consistant but I guess you can't patch all the kinks in a few chapter (but Kishi certainly can creat more).

Anyway, I'm sure Naruto will continue to train while Kishi tells about team Sasuke. Honestly do we need more chapters of Naruto training this and that? Let the viewers see Sasuke and how strong he is, then bring Naruto back and kick his ass.

The plot seems to be headed in that direction and I think Sasuke fans and Naruto fans alike will have a lot to look forward to.

[majin_vegeta]

I'm sorry, but could someone explain to me why Kishi is taking the action away from Naruto. He is just starting to get more powerful. Wouldn't it make sense to allow the readers to actually see how he's going to over come the really crappy hand he has been dealt. I think Jiraiya may have to make a return to the scene. On a side note, go Sausuke. I can't wait to see what he is really planning. Which will we get first, Naruto vs Sausuke, or Itachi vs Sausuke, or possibly another Naruto vs Itachi fight. It would be cool to see how the new and improved Naruto would match up against either of those oponents. Oh, is it me, or did anyone notice that people are never really sure when Naruto is using a Kagebunshin anymore. Has he really gotten that fast at throwing them out that even Kakashi can't really tell which one is Naruto/

This just came to me out of the blue so don't hurt me or anything but why would Sasuke wanna Naruto again? i just realize there's no point in those two ever fighting again.

[Rahan]

Spoiler:

What power had Zabuza's sword ? I know Kisame's sword is a giant chakra eating shaver, but I have no memories of Zabuza's sword being any special ?

At first, I didn't get the point of the kids using sexy jutsu in the middle of the chapter, but I guess Kishi is preparing hte ground for the anime crew who need to have their blondie on screen in every single episode.

[majin_vegeta]

That's a good point. He is no longer under oro control, so I don't think they have a real reason to fight. But none the less, it would be great to see how well Naruto would match up against a cursed seal 2 Sausuke.

Usually, you don't ask the other guy if he wants to have the shit kicked out of him, so at worst Naruto will do without Sasuke's consent.

[Deathwing]

well i honestly wanted to see more of sasuke (well to put it better i wanted to see anybody but Naruto) we have seen how naruto is doing for the past few chapters so it is nice to see another view point of the story to keep this from getting boring. Also naruto needs time to recover so this is a good time to do it.

Only problem i have with it so far is that oro and sasuke didn't have a better fight.

and on a different note i really don't see "the shocking truth" in this chapter (assuming DeDe's spoiler is correct)

[MysticNinjaJay]

Ugh...these spoilers can be very stupid sometimes.

I think I'm going to wait for the next chapter to actually come out before posting in these threads......

ROFL! They will fight again, because Sasuke is still walking the path of darkness and Naruto still has to save him spiritually. I don't think Naruto will ask Sasuke: "you wanna fight?" before engaging him.

Besides how lame would it be if Sasuke just became good again? It would be better if Naruto beat some sense into him.

I've never said he was coward, on the contrary. Kabuto being a smart ninja can judge how strong the opponent is and will never do foolish things like challenging Sasuke. The one who is foolish enough to do such a thing is Naruto, and the only one who defended Naruto from certain death was Kishimoto
So what i said is that Kabuto is smart enough ( as opposed to for example Asuma and Kurenai who challenged Itachi and Kisame ) to know that attacking Sasuke would be not brave action but stupid action. Kabuto was brave enough to fight Tsunade, that's what i call brave because he was risking his life, but he had a plan and he knew that he had a chance of winning.

[Last_Hope]

Kishi can´t possibly steal Oro away from us in one chapter and kill off Kabuto in the next. That would take away two of the absolutely best characters he has created.

Considering Kabuto´s knowledge and how closely he worked with Orochimaru I´m sure there´s a way for Kishi to let him lurk in the shadows and find a way to help Orochimaru again and just be the pain in the ass he´s supposed to be.

Yeah Kabuto shouldn't die yet(At least after the AL is revealed) Besides no one but Kishi knows what Kabuto is trying to do.

Dang I really want to know the secrets Kabuto hides and that red eye thing. You know... what if Kabuto was Madara in a genjutsu disguise.

[aceofhertz]

Didn't we used to post spoilers and predicitions in the previous chapter's thread, leaving the actual story in it's own Thread? I miss those days

[Mr. Johnny 5]

Well like the other forums...i think we should have:

- A mere spoiler thread (before the raw/scanlation releases, based on spoilers)
- Thread based on the facts (after the raw/scanlation releases)

But then again....who am i to suggest such a thing?

I'm sure the bloodshot eyes were nothing more than Kishimoto implying that Kabuto's strength was far greater than was being implied.

He introduced him as a Genin who had failed the Chunnin exam several times, when in reality he was an elite Jounin class spy ninja and Orochimaru's right hand man.

That's why he was always regarded as "being on the same level as Kakashi".

That was a way to let us know his true abilities.

Kabuto may indeed have a hidden agenda which is always being suggested but so far Kishi has implied that he is more of a medical expert than a warrior.

I found his interaction with Sasuke to be amusing. Actually I always find it to be so.

Sasuke was the first to notice that there was more to Kabuto than he was letting on and I wanted to see his reaction to finding him with Orochimaru when he first went to the lair although they did not elaborate they just walked to Orochimaru as if they had no history together (Sasuke probably did not give a damn; or maybe because of the Konoha invasion he already knew?).

I liked how after defeating Orochimaru he said "Kabuto?" in an innocent way. Showing him the battle just to taunt him and then sparing him to leave him in shock was great.

Kabuto has always been a clever genius so if he does not do anything interesting within the next few chapters, in response to Sasuke defeating Oro then Kishi is seriously downplaying his part in the series.

The Kabuto we know would not take Oro's defeat sitting down and would react in a significant way.
