Gai just told himself (through the waterfall) he was pushing himself too hard. I think the tiger attack will do what it is supposed to do (destroy all the sharks, including the messenger), but Kisame will still be alive. Then, Gai will hesitate to go all out (because he would die) and will finally let Naruto take over the fight. Anyway, I think Gai is supposed to get closure this arc. Either he'll show he understood what he was told at the waterfall (and become even more irrelevant than he was, since his "pushing himself too hard" is what made him so strong) or he'll kill himself trying too hard. He'll either quit the fight or get a pyrrhic victory (in which case, I fear Naruto will prevent his death thanks to his newfound life energy). |

Remember the huge expectations for his fight with Sasuke, Kishimoto surely knows that their fight must be the most epic and powerful fight seen in this manga (compared to those that we have seen, so not counting Hashirama vs Madara or the Rikudo Sage). In this situation i'm sure Kishimoto is making preparations like never before, which probably means among other things: - EMS power is kept secret until the fight, only hints may be given - Kyuubi+Sage power kept secret until the fight, only hints given, maybe one hint will be if Naruto beats Kisame with one hit or if Naruto can prevent Gai's death with his magical chakra after Gai opened all 8 gates - there are introduced some interesting mysteries, for example: Why has Naruto the necklace of the Rikudo sage? or Why did Naruto say that both he and Sasuke will die in their fight? - does Jiraiya's "that jutsu" really exist? is it the high speed movement that Naruto used against Kisame? similarily for Sasuke: what is the finel secret of MS/EMS, is it an EMS jutsu never shown before? - Sasuke will never give up, so if Naruto starts to win will Sasuke use Izanagi and thus burn out his EMS eyes? And will then Kishimoto introduce another haxx power of the EMS? : izanagi doesn't burn out EMS eyes just degrades them to sharingan level (a possible solution for how Madara has only normal sharingan eye and how he survived his battle against Hashirama: using Izanagi with EMS eyes) |

Clay seems to do the job aswell... and they don't even need the shape of wings that birds have.... not only that... they can float in mid-air without losing altitude... and without having to adjust their wingspeed to push the air down to fly. That makes water sharks totally realistic.

Now... he probably damaged some muscles around his ankle. Like we normally often do. It's not uncommon for us.... and Naruto all of a sudden couldn't fight anymore.

The difference then and now is that back then, Naruto HAD to move or they will DIE there and then.
In this scenario, he has Killerbee going after Kisame along with some support outside (although he wouldn't have known about Gai). The threat level simply isn't so extreme that he would have had to force himself. |

its not even like naruto was out of the fight,
he jsut hurt his leg, and itlooks like yamato's just being a pussy nurse about it plus, it's prob thinknig kisame isnt a threat because he's so much weaker, and he just got a kyuubii punch he doesn't know about samehada's ability to transfer chakra back to kisame so yea no urgency he's still running to get back int he fight hough, even with a gehtto wooden brace, same ol naruto

There have been 3 mentionings of that jutsu that clearly suggests it is more then the foxs power. 1 was when the fox s key was given to naruto. Key frog Quote: "Naruto, controlling the fox s power will also be your key to finishing " that" jutsu". This is already enough proof, other 2 where the moment when jiraiya spoke to the key just before his pain fight. read it carefully and you will notice its some special jutsu. and the third one was the first mentioning of it. By careful analyse you will notic this can never be the foxs power |
