Naruto 341

[JaySee]

Let's not forget Sasuke's evolved chidori now covers his whole body. Naruto will have to throw it eventually.

Everyone seems to think that this "new" naruto has shown no development and that Yamato is talking out his ass, but its a lot more progress than the three years he spent with Jiraiya. When he came back from the training with Jiraiya all he had was the Oodama rasengan, the knowledge on how to break genjutsu, and better control of his kyubi's chakra. After his nature manipulation training he can do a myriad of things. He can manipulate the wind chakra, do a 50% complete rasengan, and utilize his clones better. When naruto split the waterfall and saw Asuma use his weapons with wind natured chakra, I’m sure naruto wont just let those tid-bits of clever tricks go unnoticed. He might end up throwing nature-manipulated kunai. Or adapt a fighting style like Lee where he puts nature manipulated chakra into his normal hits. Looong story short, I think this new naruto is actually a thousand times better and reminiscent of the clever naruto we used to like.

thats true, i didnt notice but naruto apparently can control so much energy without loosing control of his kyuubi

[conquistaDan]

so after the fight, how many Akatsuki are left now?

[phil0253]

i'm not really sure they keep on adding new members to replace the ones that are killed

[conquistaDan]

yeah, they gotta stop doing that.

I'm pretty sure there aren't that many S class nin's to recruit for them

Also, consider the fact that Akatsuki was supposed to have been a secret organization that Jiraiya learned about through one of his spies. Yet, every hoodlum ninja seems to know about them and is itching to join up.

I guess they all signed up for the Akatsuki Newsletter on akatsuki.org
