[Manga] Chapter 423 Discussion

[Fran~]

Kakashi is a genius in Taijutsu, Ninjutsu AND Genjutsu, MS is Genjutsu after all....

The only Kakashi's limitation is his low chakra.

If Pain is in a genjutsu than next chapter Kakashi will probably hit him with his chidori because only in the gejutsu is Kakashi trapped, in reality he approached Pain to stab him. Kakashi will be surprized that killing god pain is of no use, Pain will be resummoned to continue village-raping.

We have no reason to believe that Kakashi's MS is limited to only one jutsu, he may have an MS genjutsu too (even if lesser in power than the tsukiyomi, for example it's not instantaneous but has the same strength as tsukiyomi). Also it would be nice if Pain felt a little bit of fear when recognizing MS in Kakashi's eye and having a flashback of being mind-raped by Madara when he was a child

not one person has said that Kakashi is dead!
yet on the last page it says:
KAKASHI LEAVES ONE MORE LAST THING BEHIND!!!

now forgive me, but doesn't that sound like his not coming back?. yet 99% of everyone here says that his not dead. I admit that its maybe just Kishi messing with us yet again. but the text is pretty clear at the bottom of the last page.

[Fran~]

well, it depends on the translation:
the last thing left for kakashi is?

[Shiryuu]

Pain could always turn Kakashi into a Pain since the other just got destroyed. So really, Kakashi is gonna be alive no matter what.

But it would change the entire focus of his character's power which doesn't happen often often to say the least. I think it's way more likely Kakashi used Kamui at the last second to teleport the nail away

[Fran~]

i said it before... no one could say what will happen next chapter...
yes, there is plenty of choices, wishful thinking, etc, but it's up to Kishi.

My choice is the same of Hunter... i think in a last second MS...

[ZGoten]

OMG!
Hatake Kakshi must not die!
My fanboyism cannot be in vain!

I´m sure its a Genjutsu...yeah, sure...Pain´s already trapped.

[Fran~]

^^^^^ maybe not trapped but the attack absorbed by MS instead.

and we havent seen our favorite Cursed seal possessor in a WHILE either, let's hope Anko comes back and in stye =D

[tatami]

maybe teleoprted may be genjutsu...no point in arguing that matter,

rather than that i wonder why god pein protected himseldf with the other body? afterall his bodies can be replaced...is god pain too much of a value? or he felt that injured body was already done for?

now that he lost 1 body lost it wouldnt take much time before he left...

[Fran~]

God Pain IS the squad leader...

[sasuke2007]

some(one) need(s) 2 die by the hands of pain!! i really really wudn't mind if kakashi dies, in fact i want him 2 just to show how much more of a bad-ass pain is !!!!

[Khalilnaruske]

Is it just me or does Pain seem to not be that intelligent? He seems to be easily caught in traps. He seems to hide behind the fact that he has 6 bodies. Deva Pain is not a battle body anyway if I remember correctly.

At first, Orochimaru was the most feared villain ever... and look how he died...

That is his edge to begin with. Basically all his bodies are people that already got owned by a young Jiraiya in the past. Can't really expect much of them alone. Besides that, actual Pain isn't even there. He can always get more bodies.

i don't think that he's stupid, but extremely over confident. i mean you would be too if you had fives others yous to fall back on.

[GusGus]

My prediction is that Kakashi will avoid or semi-avoid the mortal blow to use his last resort, the MS, but it won't be enought and he will be saved by someone rigth before he gets kill.

I loved Kakashi, he's my favorite character but, I rather see him die against the biggest villian than continue seeing him being downgraded to the point that he gets totally irrelevant.

[9TailsOfDestruction]

I don't think Kakashi will die he's probably the most liked character in the series. Kishi will be nuts to kill him off. I think he's going to use his MS, maybe even Amaterasu o.O if he acquired it who knows. Kinda have a feeling Maito Gai is gonna come to the rescue and save him though.

[MrCapcom]

MSing the nail or at least putting pein in a genjitsu sounds about right for kakashi's style. Then again Kishi might make this a krillin moment for naruto to power up lulz

I disagree Kakashi will not die...every main character that dies may have a massive flashback about his mistakes, successes and his life then he must have a revelation and die. Oh yeah he also must either make a massive wound on the opponent or just find out a secret.
