man, you two would seriously suck as ninjas...
i'm just waiting for the moment Naruto stopps being a fighting anime and becomes a true ninja thing... then the real action will begin, no more power-ups or super jutsu, just pure brain and startegy (think of Death Note, just in ninja form, that would own...), the popularity of naruto will be halved becuase all the guys who are mentally younger than 12 will stop watching, but the quaility will double itself...
and by the way, Kakashi also used a scroll, he summoned all the dogs with it...
