man this was a good chapter...
as said before, my thoughts on the 3 year thing will be partial jumps, then see some significant stuff, get to see naruto and jiraiya, the other 11 genins, sasuke included.
well we know something is goin down in 3years time, heh

orochimaru want sasuke
sasuke wanting itachi
Akatsuki wanting naruto

im glad that jiraiya is training naruto, jiraiya is one of my favourites. be seeing more of him.
