Think it's 98ish if looking at episode listings is any indication.

Thanks.

That might be the only spoiler I'm happy to have seen. Although it was pretty obvious he hadn't died didn't need spoilers for that. Don't spoil anything else though ><, I want to be surprised by whatever Naruto/Pain does this chapter.

the kakashi thing wasnt /spoiler'd
though I dont think that is an actual spoiler anyways since it's not in any of the pics released so far, or the chapter overview.

[Serif]

These are the only Kakashi pictures that I have seen from the forums I frequent...

Ah, maybe it's fake? D:

I'm sorry, but from these pics... How fucking awesome is naruto becoming, seriously.

For the longest time i've only run into people who called naruto weak or stupid or blahblah only uses clones or rasengan and idc if it's a powerboost or whatever, he is going to be fucking amazing soon. He's going to get that key and be insane, he'll probably learn how to do the yellow flash shit... fuck he is great. BTW frog eyes vs Rinnengan is cool lol.

I only wish he went through a more gradual transition between useless to average to this new WHAT THE FUCK HOLY SHIT IS THAT REALLY NARUTO?!

Instead, I'm reminded of Dragonball Z when they went into that room where one day was a year, and they all came out four times as strong as when they went in. Seems like the same thing with the Frog training, because when you think about it, not many days have actually passed in the manga from when Naruto left and with him returning now. That's the only thing that sours this for me.

We don't really know how much time passed as I don't think there is any way to know how much time there was between Naruto going to frogville and Pein actually showing up.

I am agreeing with Boiyee right now. Naruto is becoming fucking awesome. I am so hyped to read the chapters that are coming. He is so different to how he started out. I know i watched a few chapters of the anime yeeeeears ago and then didnt touch naruto again until this year because i couldnt stand naruto being the whiny little shit that he was lol

[Souj]

when was the last time we saw him fight to his full potential? only fights I can remember are him and Orochimaru (he went into nine-tails mode almost instantly), then Kazuka in which he was probably already tired from training. there was the Itachi fight. did he actually fight him?

[Boyiee]

I mentioned a while ago how I thought when kakashi said to naruto that he had surpassed him, that I felt maybe he really did.

Naruto from what we have seen, I don't think has ever been at his full capabilities since the jiraiya training. I think he really has been strong, and much smarter for a while now, and that we are going to see it... I mean come on, look at his entrance to this whole pain thing, you just know that he is at the level that he is being hyped up to be. From Jiraiya calling him the child of prophecy, to the frogs seeing it, kakashi saying he has surpassed him, and tsunade saying that pain is going to have trouble since naruto is strong... It really excites me. It's like, finally, we can see it. I don't think we've had the oppertunity for him to really use brains in a fight, it could be intense.

[Souj]

last time i remember him fighting with his all was when he fought Sasuke to keep him from leaving Konaha. I'm sure there was a fight after that... but I can't remember.

Nope. That's been the only all-out fight for Naruto. Though I suppose Haku and a couple other fights made him go close. But for post time-skip he hasn't had nearly as close to the same caliber of fights as before, there's always been some disadvantage or gimmick to keep him from it.

And to think, he's still a Genin lol

im sure they'll promote him to jounin just for possibly killing a pein body in one hit.
