Wait a minute! Isn't the byakugan sealed upon the death of a branch family member? It didn't seem like Neji and Hinata's grandfather was killed. I thought that was him in this scene: http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/105/12/ Where on earth with Ao get that byakugan?
Kudos to Naruto's allies for making their decision, and it seems that Sakura gained some resolve at the end. I wonder what it is that she wants to do.
Man... Zetsu totally narced on Sasuke. His home village is still unknown. It would be really funny if Zetsu ended up being a Hidden Cloud ninja. That would shut Raikage up a bit.![]()

Who was Uchiha Shisui again? Was he Itachi's best bud?
That would a lol for the ages. And an awesome twist.Originally Posted by RasenDori
Yep. I think so. Now for the conspiracy theories. Did somebody "invent" the condition of getting MS in order to get a certain somebody else killed?
Zetsu's appearance on the last page reminds me of The Shining. "Here's Johnny!"
And what the hell is with people stealing eyes now? Are they from New Jersey?
Explain the Jersey reference please.
I'm guessing you live there. I was referring to the recent corruption charges over people illegally selling organs.Originally Posted by Sam98034
Nope, don't live there. I do recall hearing about that somewhere, though. Weren't there rabis involved as well?Originally Posted by unandpw

This chapter was simply great.
Eye stealing seems to be the newest trend.
I dunno what sudden decision Sakura came to, but for fucks sake... I hope its something along the line of stopping Sasuke even if they kill him. He has committed just too many crimes already to be forgiven at the end.
Zetsu was hilarious.
wait, what crimes has he committed? killing Orochimaru, and failing to capture the 8-tails?Originally Posted by RyougaZell
awesome chapter. too bad there isn't one next week :x

It's not like attempt at murder is wrong at all, because it didn't work!
I say they welcome Sasuke back to Konoha with beers and whores and let bygones be bygones
oh right, since running away from home is such a morally wrong and sociably inexcusable action. people who run away should be shot on sight, regardless of any kind of reasons they have.Originally Posted by rockmanj
what kind of dictatorship world do you guys see the Narutoverse as, that someone can't just go away from the village to do what he wants? why are the ninja so set-in-stone that they can't leave? that's just retarded. plus, he ran away from home so he could kill another missing nin from Konoha. so if you're looking at it from a "end justifies the means" viewpoint, yeah, pretty much everything he's done so far is perfectly acceptable. killing the missing nin, killing Orochimaru (someone who wanted to, and attempted to destroy Konoha)
1 murder attempt? man, all those crimeS are seriously building up now. a ninja attempted to kill an innocent ninja from another country? Preposterous!!Originally Posted by Archangel
already covered, boy.Originally Posted by RyougaZell
who? Naruto? naruto threw a rasengan right back at him so don't even give me that, boy.2) Attempting to murder a comrade with Chidori
who he later killed. saving the rest of the world from the bad-mans evil agenda. plus, he did go around to some of his prisons and free the innocent humans. but you're right, him doing that is a crime. unforgivable3) Working under an S-class Missin-nin (who murdered 3 Kage)
seriously? isn't that what diplomacy is for? yeah, a missing nin did something to another country, not his fault that the country is too dumb to realize he's not associated with his home anymore. plus it's KIllabee's fault for running away. something that you guys seem to think sasuke needs to be killed for.4) Could have caused war if his actions against KillerBee were blamed to Konoha.
calling stretch, because this is a purely "from the kages viewpoint" accusation. plus, the kages themselves use akatsuki bro. so whats the big deal if he's doing the same?5) Becoming a member of Akatsuki (at least this is what everybody believes since he wears its cloak)
the only dude he wants to kill is danzou or the village elders. if Shikamaru or someone took over the village I don't think he'd have any problem at all with who's in charge.6) He intents to destroy Konoha and / or kill the 5 Kage.
awesome sarcasm bro. just shut your mouth next time, okay?So you are right. He hasn't commited any crime. Like Archie says, lets welcome him back with a glass of beer and open arms!
i'm sure i'm gonna get plenty more neg reps for this post. D:

Pandadice, are you being serious or are you trolling?
You did not offer one valid refutation of RZ's points. None of those arguments make any sense whatsoever. I don't think you understand that just because you, the omniscient viewer, haven't been affected by Sasuke's actions, doesn't mean the other characters haven't.
Edit: I hope Ao's Byakugan fits in to the story on some deeper level than "Kishimoto needed a way for someone to out Danzo for manipulating everyone"
Surely he could have sent Neji along if that was the case.
Edit 2: I'm so happy it was revealed Danzo has mind-control powers. That explains the stupidity of him being elected Hokage/Ninja Emperor.
It's still very Deus-Ex but at least we know the characters themselves aren't completely brain-dead.

<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs

I'm just going to bring up one very salient point about the missing-nin thing.
Ninja villages do not want their secrets getting out, because they do not want other countries knowing of them. So, usually when a ninja goes missing, they put a hit out on them so that they don't give up the village secrets. Now, in Sasuke's case this goes double, as he is the last known natural Sharingan user, which would be of great value to opposing nations if it was acquired. This is the prime reason that Sasuke is a criminal in the Naruto world (in Konoha's eyes), and Tracking down missing-nin is one of the jobs of ANBU

If what Madara/Tobi said about Itachi is even close to the any part of the truth, Itachi did not betray his village. He obeyed an order to prevent an uprising. He should no longer be classified as a missing-nin, rather a agent that really got his bottom taken out because of the secrecy of his mission.
However, Itachi was labeled as a missing-nin, despite the knowledge of this by the 3rd Hokage, elders and Danzo? They keep the secret and not openly declaring to have Itachi eliminated?
Sasuke, did in the eyes of the whole village betrayed them, by leaving to join Orochimaru.
He left because he wanted power to get rid of the mass murderer Itachi. While the end means, is for his clan and village, the way he went about it was wrong. Despite labeling it wrong, Sasuke did made a conscious effort not to kill his best friend off and just walked off, saying he would get power without killing his best friend, lesser of 2 evil.
That alone is good enough for his friend, I am sure this is not a sign of utter viciousness/disloyalty. Sasuke did do a lot of good, as we know he didnt kill people wantonly and in all cases just disabled, like the Gundam seed hero(Kira) - cant say the same about Jugo, Sound five like Kimmimaro, Orochimaru's previous bodies.
As for attacking killabee, that is once again due to the Akatsuki evil leaders, for now he has the goal of killing Danzo for what he did to his brother, therefore he follows once again bad company. But if he is capable of killing Orochimaru, we can only keep our finger crossed that he can eliminate the Akatsuki.

So you are right. He hasn't commited any crime. Like Archie says, lets welcome him back with a glass of beer and open arms!
Someone said a spy for Danzou? That's retarded.
1. I would not say he did not break any rules, laws or regulation of the sectarian Ninja village.Originally Posted by RyougaZell
If he lived in a democratic society, having a change of a Teacher is perfectly fine. He made a choice, it may be good or bad, you cant judge him just based on the fact that it was against the rule.
2. He did attempt to murder Naruto. But when it really mattered he did not finish Naruto off, he had a shred of good in him. This must be brought up so as not to continuously bash Sasuke.
3. When you obey mindlessly what your teacher orders you, you do all kind of bad things and good ones. But his goal of becoming powerful, he pretty much only did the lesser evil of all things. Remember the field of ninjas? and Orochimaru commenting that he is not killing all those people whom he defeated.
4. Couldnt have caused a war against Konoha, Konoha cooperated immediately by providing information on Akatsuki. The lightning village was more or less begging Konoha for information, while Konoha being ravaged by Akatsuki itself was more then willing to cooperate.
5. Once again, Sasuke even though has the Sharingan, has not prove to be entirely great at preventing himself from being manipulated by old timer. It is a bad decision to just believe in what Tobi tells him.
6. Wow, where did he announce that he wants to destroy the entire Konoha, that is way too strong, because I dont think he would want to kill the Ramen vendor. Please correct your believe.
From the point of view of the Kage summit, yes a hunt on anyone of the Akatsuki member would be valid. Do not just focus on Sasuke. That would be prudent.
From the point of view of the individual villages, they might want to hunt specific Akatsuki members, or harbor them based on "emotional" events as I have listed above. Only certain subset of members in the village would feel that way.
I take offense that you have went and insulted my idea as retarded. As I had written, it is a theory, a possible plot that Danzo was using Sasuke as a spy to kill Orochimaru and or now Akatsuki. If you have your mind closed, and unable to read beneath the line, that is where you fail. This is a ninja manga for fuck sake, dont just take everything for granted and like its the unbreakable rule.
