    308 MQ Scanlation

    While super powerful Sasuke is cool, I'm annoyed that it seems like he has surpassed Naruto by so much. I want to see what Naruto can do besides get his ass kicked.

    ROFLMAO!!

    Anyways...
    About people saying Kakashi said it was impossible to do something like that...

    Well, maybe that is why Sasuke trained to achieve it. To prove him wrong, and surpass him.

    Maybe its impossible for normal people... but Sasuke has a curse seal that turns people into demons... so... not surprissing he tried to achieve something "impossible".

    I believe some people are a little confused about this. The way I took it, if Kyuubi got out of control and too much for Naruto to handle, Yamato could give him a "temporary" seal that would suppress the fox before it killed Naruto. In this sense Yamato's only use is when the Kyuubi is becoming a threat to friend and foe alike. I didn't think, unless I am wrong, that Yamato used the same seal on Naruto as Oro did when he didn't want Naruto to properly utilize the fox's chakra. And if it was the same, there's no point in a permanent seal of that variety if Jiraiya, who taught Naruto how to better use the power, would just unseal it after the mission, provided Naruto survived.

    Best fricking chapter we've seen in a long ass time. Can't exactly cite where but I remember someone in this forum predicitng that we'd see sasuke use some sort of variation of Oro's legendary sword based on japanese mythology. Plus he also used his chidori with it which was a nice touch. What really made this chapter for me was to see the fox again as well especially with sasuke appearing out of no where into the depths of naruto's subconcious, it's going to be interesting to see how the fox interacts with more then one person. For the first time in a while I'm curious to see where the manga is going. Hope kishimoto dosen't do something stupid like have sasuke absorb the fox into himself.

    I forget where but there have been some suble clues that the sharigan has something to do with the bichu it'll be interesting to see if kishi further develops the hinted plot thread.

    So how is the new chidori supposed to work? Does it just shock them or what? Chidori is supposed to cut things.

    This is the explaination for chidori that Gai give during the first chunnin exam for those who ask: "...It's a technique specially for assassination. The speed of the stab and the great amount of chakra that creates the heightened flesh. Because the chakra is concentrated in the hand and with the speed of the user, you hear chi chi chi... It produces a special sound like a thousand birds are running toward you. Thus that technique is called this Chidori"
    Kakashi later add (in chapter 114, still in the Chunnin exam): "It's true name is chidori. It is known for it's stabbing speed that pushes the limits of the human body and the huge amount of chakra that is focused in one arm (not the whole body). That arm then becomes a blade of a sword that cuts anything."

    Damn...My Yamato > Sasuke theroy just got pwned. Great chapter finally, but so many questions raised.

    How is Sasuke in Naruto's head for instance, perhaps the whole Naruto's head thing was really some type of reaction at the border between Naruto's chakra and Kyubi's that acts like genjutsu. If the whole dreamscape thing was something like that it might be conceivable that the Sharingan could see and interpret it. Of course this doesn't explain how Sasuke can physically interact with the environment, but I don't think he's actually touching the chakra, he just has his hand out.

    And Sasuke's blade is quite the formidable wepon, however we've seen a blade carry chakra before in Asuma, though I doubt he uses chakra to the extent that he can cut a kunai in half. What will the team do now? Sasuke has them completely out-classed...

    Unless of course Sasuke spent so much time trainging with a sword and chakra control he for got to train his body and Sakura just knocks his lights out..somehow I doubt it though.

    You read my mind completely. That will be extremely stupid. And i swear that i will stop reading Naruto completely just as i completely stop watching its animation. This series has so many unexplain twists that we always thought they are impossible already. The last thing we need is another stupid absorbtion twist or even a sharing Kuuybi twist. I do love the flowing chidori and katana chidori even though it doesn't match the explanation that Kakashi and Gai gave during the first chunin exam.

    Maybe because it ISN'T Chidori, but a VARIATION? Hence another name...

    Sasuke already knew Chidori, and developing a new Lighting-Chakra based technique he decided he didn't want to be creative and named it Chidori Nagashi?

    See it like Jyuken and Kaiten... not the same technique, but same principle... expelling Chakra from tenketsus. Chidori and Chidori Nagashi have he same principle as well... expelling Lighting-Chakra.

    Chidori Nagashi wasn't a kill-move. Its a defensive move, just like Kaiten.
    And the Chidori-enhanced Kusanagi could be in fact the normal Chidori, centered around the blade, instead of the arm.

    Oh yeah... please don't double post...

    The way I always understood the basics of Chidori was that it basically just concentrated an insane amount of chakra in one place (so much that it became visible). How the chidori was used was the thrust and the assassination technique part. The Chidori Nagashi seems, to me, be Sauke concentrating a huge amount of chakra surrounding his whole body. The blade its likely what others have said, Sasuke using the huge amount of chakra of chidori and putting it through the blade instead of into his palm.

    People were suggesting that naruto couldn't pull kyubi's chakra even if he wanted to as a result of yamato's binding move.

    Nah, Sasuke's going to try and make Naruto go Kyuubi.. And we'll have another big fight.

    Though in my opinion, there's not enough of a buildup to this chapter.

    Nice chapter.

    Sasuke has grown so much. This is what I except from an UCHIHA.

    So Sasuke has a new move, Flowing Chidori. At first I thought its lame but when you think about that his clan originated from Hyuga and people like Neji can produce chakra from any part of their body then it doesn’t sound that far fetched. I hope Chidori is not the only move he has developed past these years. I want to see what he has learned from Orochimaru.

    For once Sakura just stay out of the way and be useful. She thinks that she is helping but things only get worse. Ok, she has been training under Tsunade sama but let it go girl. Let the men sort it out in a duel.

    Its about time that Naruto stopped relying on Kyubi so much. If he wants to be a Hokage some day then he better start acting like one.

    How that Sasuke is is able to see whats going on between Naruto and the Kyubi? Those eyes, what are they able to see and how far? That foam Kyubai just looked like a sneaking SNAKE which creped me out.

    Apparently oro gave sasuke the kusanagi sword. It looks a little different though...

    I don't think it's the same sword really, the way he says MY kusangi sword makes me think that this is another one.

    I'm loving sasuke's new look more and more with every chapter.
