    There's no reason to hang Sai, they're ninjas. If Orochimaru wanted to kill him, the last thing hed do is hang him. I think it is possible that he's dead though since orochimaru said "No matter which way we do it, one corpse is needed now isn't it?" Perhaps Danzou wants Orochimaru to transfer him into a new body? He seems pretty useless in the condition he's in now.

    Ah what happened to the forums? My beatiful avatar my beatiful avatar is gone (GWAAAHHHHH). God do I hate change, also I was a bit frustrated by this chapter mostly it just repeated things we had already figured out last week. Hope something interesting happens next week.

    Man I so hope he's dead for real, it would prove that Kishi can still surprise us... but still, an inner voice is telling me that it's just yet another fake trap lame thingy that will make me lose additional faith in the series.

    well lets look at the options here:

    1: is Oro that twisted to kill the messenger boy just so he can get away....yes

    2: does this feel like a really obvious trap that will bite our heros in the ass.....yes

    It's a lose-lose situation, we're all doomed

    Sai dead? Not very likely?

    Although he can fake a death easily. He doesnt have any facial expressions to begin with.

    I am hoping to find more about Sai's true nature and his mission.

    Yeah, Sai's not dead. Naruto will get angry at Sai's apparent death and go into a rage, just like has been said. Sai will either witness Naruto's anger, or get wind of it. At worst, Sai is immediately touched by Naruto's display of emotion and turns a new leaf. Possibly, Sai might not be all of a sudden changed to a nice guy, but after repeated displays of Naruto drama Sai will ask "how can someone like him go so far for someone like me?" and shed a tear. Most probably, and quite fortunately, Sai will either witness or get wind of Naruto's emotional outbust (or many emotional outbursts, however much it takes), and Sai will realize that Naruto would do anything for the village, if he would do so much for a member of the village he doesn't even like. This is a quality I imagine Sai would respect, because it was kind of hinted when Sai was surprised that naruto said "I would do anything for that friend, even work with you." I rather like the last possibility I mentioned. Anything better (i.e. Konoha civil war) would kick too much ass. Kishimoto's learned his lesson about kicking too much ass.

    @ terra: I'm hoping that to god that doesn't happen. If the last option I mentioned occurs, then Sai does not need to have changed internally to become a better/more complete/gayer character. It would simply mean that his view of Naruto and what he means to the village would change. Over time however, its entirely possible that he and Naruto might become friends...

    In other words, Sai will become yet another "Naruto changed my life!!11" character?

    It's a lose/lose situation. If Sai's alive we have another fake death to be cynical about; if he's dead we've wasted a few chapters begining to develope a character that we don't need at all.

    This is a great theory.
    Danzou wanting to learn Oro's jutsu. That would explain why Oro said that about the corpse.

    Remember how Haku made it posible for Zabuza to fake a death ? Kabuto must have done something similar to Sai. And when they bring Sai's corpse to Konoha he wil revive and go meet Danzou and tell him about his mission.

    When oro said "we only need one corpse", the thought that came to mind was for a resurrection jutsu.

    Itīs really, really annoying.

    First, Neji and Chouji alive.
    Okay, it would have been a too heavy impact on Shikamaru, if those had died, so...never mind.

    Then, Gaara dying, but being revived.
    Okay, the first revived character, and Garaaīs just a to great character to kill him off that easiliy.

    Then, Sai being stabbed into the stomache by Orochimaru...oooookay, perhaps it would have been too rushed.

    But now...already another "dead" Sai?

    Please, Kishimoto, make him real dead.
    There can be easiliy done a flashback story of Sai, that explains, why he had to to, what he did and so on.
    But please, dont play that dumb with the death of characters.
    I personally want Sai to stay alive, but it just annoys, how Kishimoto handles things...

    Yeah... I kinda remembered that the body-transfer jutsu is done with a living host...

    But then... who would Danzou want back alive?
    Sai's brother?

    Back to Naruto and Sakura.
    Unless Sakura leaves Naruto alone, which I doubt, Yamato will follow them alone, that is if he isn't fooled by the hanged Sai...

    I still think that Sai is faking his death so he can be taken back to village and "buried" or something.

    Maybe Oro needs an specific corpse?

    Now Im hallucinating... (2hr and half more to get done with the job)

    I dunno.....what did kabuto say to tsunade when they proposed the resurrection technique for her brother and boyfriend? It sounded like two freshly dead bodies would suffice.

    For the resurrection yes.

    I meant the body-transfer one that Oro uses to keep on living.

    oh thank you so much kishimoto. just what i wanted, ninjas chasing ninjas through the forest. i thought just didnt feel complete with out the cliche of ninjas chasing ninjas through the forest. *sarcasim aler*

    yeah... theres no way sai is dead. its too early for him and hes not developed. it obvious he will become another on the list of people naruto reformed.
