My take on the Sakura situation.

Like Marcicus mentions, Sakura means well. She just wants everyone to stop relying on Naruto so much, and wants to lift the burden that the promise has been on him. However, she went about trying to do so in a really bad way.

As for the team, from what we've seen so far I think the rookies are still intent on finding and killing Sasuke. However I totally believe that Sakura will predictably go against that and try to persuade Sasuke back when she finds him.

And I'm in agreement with altwight. Been wanting there to be a reason for Naruto and Sasuke to face off in an intense fight. Sasuke chidori-ing Sakura (don't even really care if she dies or not) just as Naruto arives on the scene would be a perfect way to make it happen.

Vajra, I don't think Naruto can actually "sense" chakra in sage mode similar to how someone like Karin can. If you're referring to how he found Pain, that was solely due to using those rods to pinpoint his location.

Part 1:


Naruto's exasperation toward Sakura's confession!!


470: Killer Bee Vs Kisame!!


Kakashi, Yamato, Lee, and Kiba in silence, as the snow is falling


Sakura: I...are you saying I'm lying to myself?

Naruto with an ambiguous face: ...

Sakura: You have to decide what your true feelings are!! If you hate me then be straightforward about it!! Don't make selfish excuses.

Interrupting Sakura while talking, Naruto: That's why it's strange! To say something like that until now!

Sakura: ...Something...like that!?

Sakura talking on and on: That something--a girl's confession--do you think this is something to take lightly!?

And until now!?

I came all the way here for that!

You and Sasuke, Sasuke, it's always you chasing after Sasuke and getting yourself into danger.

As the Jinchuuriki of the 9-tails, you're a target of Akatsuki! Why don't you worry a bit for yourself! You know, I...I'm saying it would be better if you stop getting into trouble and quit chasing after Sasuke.

I came here to tell you I'd like for you to return to the village now. That's it.

Naruto: I don't hear anything but painful excuses.

Sakura: That's what I don't understand! I don't have feelings anymore for the criminal that Sasuke's become.

Naruto: It's not a matter of this promise.

Naruto, whose eye line is dropping: It's about Sasuke wanting to violently take revenge...it's something I understand, even if just a little...

Kakashi: ...

Naruto: Sasuke loved his family and his clan...if anyone wounded that love, I don't think I could forgive them.

Kiba: If that's the case, why then after defeating Itachi, is Sasuke supporting Akatsuki?

Naruto: It's not like that...he really---

Kakashi: Naruto!

Naruto: !

Sakura: ?

Kiba, Lee: !!


Naruto remembers a conversation with Yamato & Kakashi

(Don't mind what Madara said. For the time being, we'll keep what he said to us. We want to avoid unnecessary conflict. Moreover, until we can find proof to what he said, we can't trust him. To believe that Itachi was used by the uppers in Konoha to kill the Uchiha clan...)

Naruto: Even if that promise to Sakura is gone, it doesn't matter.

Sakura: !

Naruto: I've been thinking that I, myself want to save Sasuke.

Sakura with her eyebrow's raised: ...

Sai watches in silence

Part 2:

Kiba, whispering to Sakura: What should we do Sakura...? Isn't it better if we just tell him like it is?

Lee: !

Footsteps interrupt Sakura and Kiba

Sakura: I've had enough! I'm going back!

Kiba squating: Oh geez...

Akamaru worried: Ku~~~n

Naruto stares at Sakura's back

Sakura: Let's go! Kiba, Lee-san, Sai!

Lee: Sakura-san...

Kiba: Let's go

Naruto watches everyone from behind

Sakura's eyes closed (looks like she's crying?): (Naruto...I'm sorry!)

Sai looks to the side from the end of his eyes

There's another small team in hiding watching

Kiba: Is this ok Sakura?

Sakura: Kiba, I have a favor.

Kiba: ! What?

Sakura: From here I want to search for Sasuke! Please help!

Wind, Lightning, Water, and Earth dispatch from the treetops and are moving.

Kurotsuchi: If we dispose of the Hachibi and Kyubi, Madara's plans won't go as planned and we can weaken the military force of the Cloud and Leaf, killing two birds with one stone right?

Tsuchikage: This time there's no point in doing that.

Kurotsuchi: Why!? You've become a stubborn old man huh.

Tsuchikage recalls Gaara's words: (When did you guys cast yourselves aside?)

Tsuchikage: ...it's because I remembered...

Kurotsuchi: Remembered what?

Akatsuchi: ?

Tsuchikage: ...how I was before I became stubborn.

Part 3:

You start to see Samehada's true shape from his bandages

Ponta falls: Uguu

Kisame: I didn't get any good shavings from this giant bear.

Sabu-chan wields his axe: Ponta is a raccoon! I'll have you realize my sentiments!

Bee taking notes: (Sentiments...so you use it at a time like this...Alright! Ok!)

Kisame attacks Sabu-chan: You're trying to get in my way huh!

Bee throws his pencil, and Kisame avoids it

Kisame slashes at Bee, but Bee dodges

The pencil he threw sticks into the ground

Kisame: (With a Raiton, he used a high frequency vibration to increase it's power to penetrate. A pencil huh...a piercing ability greater than that of Fuuton...that's some crazy vibration...if I take a hit like that, it will undoubtedly pierce right through me)

Sabu-chan takes this opportunity to slash at Kisame: Yosakukiri!!

Kisame blocks and stops the attack with his sword

Kisame: (He's tracking my movements with a mid-range Raiton using projectile weapons)

Switching to Bee

Kisame: Moreover, that oscillation, they're trying to place me in-between huh)

Bee goes after Kisame with Raiton flowing through his sword: (With this, two hole~s! I despise you!)

Kisame take the attack, stopping it with his sword

Bee: !?

Sabu-chan: (What's going on!? Bee's Super Vibrato Raiton blade didn't pierce!?)

Bee roaring: Uiiii!

He puts on the 8-tails (chakra) form

Bee aims at Kisame: Heddo Hatto* (Eight Headed Sword) (they butt heads)

Sabu-chan: (The form of the Hachibi! Ok! With this he's getting serious!)

Bam

Sabu: !

Kisame stops the blow with his head

Bee: ...! You..my chakra...

Sabu: Bee! I saw it! That sword! That sword sucks chakra! With that last attack (the super vibrato raiton blade), before you made contact with his body, your chakra was absorbed! That's why it didn't pierce!

You see more and more of Samehada

Kisame: Because of the tailed beast your chakra tastes of octopus. At this rate Samehada's going to get overexcited over something this rare...some shavings will do.

Bee, bumping his left forehead to Kisame's: It's unexpected you'd make such cute eyes♪ Soon you'll be making the eyes of a dead fish♪

Bee separates himself from Kisame

You see more and more of Samehada's form

Kisame: Hoshigaki Kisame, after this you will recognize that name.

Samehada changes...a close match with Killer Bee!?

The End

[Parshias]

Looks like Gaara learned a thing or two from Naruto.

I suppose now that the full conversation is out and I see how it's handled, I can somewhat understand. I get that she's trying to lift the burden off of Naruto, but she's going about it all the wrong way. Honestly, I do think she has *some* feelings for Naruto, but she's just not clear on them. She's a teenage girl after all, so things like that are still confusing as they are for any teenagers who think they are 'in love'. So yeah, I don't want Sasuke to Chidori her to the heart, but a Chidori to the shoulder could still work. Make her feel pain because that's what that kind of willy-nilly confession can do to someone. Going behind Naruto's back just to 'protect him' is so retarded. If anything, she's going to need Naruto to come and save her ass.. again.

Either way, the Killer Bee/Kisame fight is gonna be awesome.

Vajra, I don't think Naruto can actually "sense" chakra in sage mode similar to how someone like Karin can. If you're referring to how he found Pain, that was solely due to using those rods to pinpoint his location.

He is able to tell that Kakashi died by being unable to sense his chakra (when he first arrives in Konoha to fight Pain). He asks Tsuande if Kakashi left on a mission and says that he can sense chakra now.

Well to be honest how would he have even known if kakashi was there in the first place. So you can't really base that and say "He couldn't sense his chakra" Cause obviously Naruto would think Kakashi was somewhere else if he couldn't sense his chakra. I doubt he would come to the village and think first "zomg kakashi must be dead" lol.

[Arcticfox]

Anime: "OLE!" Madara as Tobi is awesome.

[EternalSnow]

I just want to freaking see naruto and sasuke have a rematch from their last battle in the early naruto lol. I really want to see them go at it at their current levels of power.

[Maguspk]

Excuse me, but who the fuck is the racoon guy at Killerbee/Kisame fight. He's fucking retarded and I can't remember why he's there. Should be a fight nonetheless.

Also, I hope Sakura dies and Naruto sees it. That would be fucking epic as hell.

Answering the original point about Naruto being able to sense chakra -

Naruto 431 page 03 | One Manga

2nd panel, pretty explicit.

Good point. Completely forgot about that.

At the very least it seems he's pretty limited in how far he can sense since he made it sound like he could only sense the chakra of the people within the village.

Samehada O_O

OP'd!? too early too tell i suppose.

I will make a hole in you so you aren't whole!

[Rokku]

There's a "pen is mightier than the sword" comment to be made somewhere as the result of the last chapter.

[Max™]

Gussy it up however you want, Trebek, the question is... does it work?

Will it really mighty my penis, man?


Also: screw chidori in the heart.

Sakura: Oh Sasuke, I love you so much, take me, make me a woman.
Sasuke: lol, k
*make out session, clothes come off, Sakura spreads her legs for him*
Sasuke: CHIDORI!

[EternalSnow]

penis stronger than the sword!

[Ivaden]

I don't understand why Sakura thinks she's at all significant and could even handle Sasuke, so why the fuck is she going superdyke and pretending she's a badass now?

I am merely pointing out that Naruto does in fact have the ability to sense chakra.

I'm torn between wanting to laugh and wanting to dig out the part of my brain that just put together a visual of that.
