lol, so right. Orochimaru was such a slut.

@Ryouga - thanks for worrying! I get my raws someplace else though - I actually wanted to post the raw but you beat me to the punch, and translated already Funny it's out on thursday, what with how lately it took the entire weekend...

Anyway, I never liked much the curse seal thing. It seemed kinda... cheap, I dunno. Sasuke doesn't seem to need the curse seal anymore though - his main advantage seems to be speed. When meeting Naruto, he got next to him in a blink, and last chapter it was the same. Sound-barried-breaking Ninjas!

Which makes me wonder, what good is Naruto's training going to be? The Shuriken Rasegan can't be used against Sasuke, it'd kill him. And it's no good if Sasuke can basically move out of the way faster than Naruto can form the shuriken, throw it and get out of the way.
