I know Sasuke doesn't die (spoiled from the movie), but I sure do hope Naruto beats him within an inch of his life.

Well Naruto has to, he cannot just give up on his dream becoming a hokage.
Sasuke have his reason, but he confined all those tail beasts.
Sasuke becoming hokage equals nightmare.

I would love for this to happen, but it wont because Naruto has such a soft spot for Sasuke.

They balanced out the talking with the fighting. The fight seems to be going in Sasuke's favor though and now after combining all the chakra from the tailed beasts he is apparently at the same level as the Sage of Six paths.

3 chapters left.

Classic shonen fight.... Sasuke is pretty strong for now with Naruto holding back. Narutos bijuu mode looks like its going to look like Ashuras avatar with the six arms....kwl chapter I hope they exhaust each other in the next chapter so we can see a powered down fight with more stategy. I like dbz style fights as much as the next guy but I would prefer a ninja fight between the two somewhere

Interesting, what Sasuke is doing with only one Rinnegan.
Makes it kind of weird, that Madara was so keen on getting his second eye back from Obito.

I know that Naruto is basically retarded but I did not expect Sasuke's plan to boil down to babysitting humanity for eternity.

He is a wannabe Lelouch with half the brain.

Well would ya look at that: last chapter I was saying how I'd like to have Kurama-mode upgraded to Ashura's own avatar version and this chapter delivers it. It's not an exact copy mind, but that's a good thing (exact copy paste powers are not very creative).

The fight's gotten more interesting. I'll admit, when Sasuke pulled the Bijuu back down my first thought was "If he uses them as hostage shield...", but it turns out he's only using they chakra to get a better form. Fat load of good it'll do him in the end because we know he won't be allowed to succeed, but details.

Some verbal shots being fired too.

"That jutsu shows how lonely you are". Oh Sasuke you card. What manga have you been following? Of course that's his own twisted perspective. I always took Kage Bunshin to be a symbol of what Naruto himself stood for: where 1 person fails, many people banded together will succeed.

"When it comes to battle, I really want to beat you. But not the you in your current state". OK, I took this as either that Naruto considers Sasuke "much weaker than he normally would be" or that "beating him now wouldn't give him the satisfaction". You're free to throw in your opinion on the matter.

Also yeah go figure, Sasuke DOES seem to seek immortality so he can be that eternal enemy. It's funny, he's basically combining all of the villains we've had into 1. He took on Pain/Nagato's proposal of a massive threat/pain that unifies people, ruling from the shadows like Obito/Madara and seeking immortality like Orochimaru. It's...kinda disturbing.

I wouldn't call the grumpier version of Icky Vicky who threatens you with a periodic lashing to be "babysitting".

Nah, half of Lelouch's brain would have already come to the conclusion of how stupid this plan is. More like 12% of R1 Lelouch's brain.

Sasuke's trash talking didn't do anything to Naruto though. Infact it was his one clone Kurama that gathered senjutsu to make Naruto equal to Sasuke with all that bijuu chakra. Naruto is neither lonely nor alone in this fight, he has Kurama.

That was a pretty great chapter. Naruto's shadow clone jutsu can be argued to be a symbol of his inherent loneliness. Wow. That makes his widespread usage of it look very different from how it usually looks...
