He's a namek

Fuck yeah Ark Angels. Best bosses/storyline in XI. Good question about Raikage...

**ronin sparthos** · 2011-11-02 17:30

In a world where eye transplants are trivial, it should be no problem getting the Raikage a new arm.

The whole thing reminds me of Star Wars really.

**Ayn** · 2011-11-02 19:28

Nah, Raikage is just such a goddamn Boss that he regrew his hand through pure force of will.

I'm suddenly picturing Raikage like Ikkaku in Bleach a few chapters grunting, then going "FUCK YEAH" as his arm grows back.

Considering he was fighting literally immortal former Hokages and was unable to finish them before hand, I don't consider this a bad thing. There wasn't much he could do with Oro having complete control of their emotions like that.

I see Naruto becoming Hokage briefly only to die and Konohamaru becoming Hokage during a time of peace.

Naruto becoming World Kage and Konohamaru becoming Hokage also work, either way Konohamaru sort of is a shoe in for becoming Hokage and Kishi shoves it down our throats constantly.

Chapter was fucking badass...still curious where Sasuke is...he'll probably show up to where Naruto is somehow or something. Maybe the manga will be wrapped up with this war?

**Deadgye** · 2011-11-02 21:05

So yeah I went through the last couple of chapters and the raikage is definitely still missing his left hand all the way up to page 15 of the latest chapter.. and then it's just back again.

**Pharaun** · 2011-11-02 21:07

I was thinking about the Raikage and I realized that maybe Tsunade's regeneration technique has something to do with his hand reappearing.

I didn't mean fight equalizer, moreso power gap equalizer. It permits a much weaker Shinobi to kill multiple targets stronger than himself so long as he can maintain shadow clones.

I have no doubt that Hashirama alone could have defeated the Third alone, even in their respective primes.

Sure; the point is merely that Impure Resurrection and Dead Demon Sealing are both imba and one can't really evaluate a character's strength through the ability to use either. Are we going to argue that Kabuto is stronger than Madara because he has the ability to summon a zombie Madara?

That's a good point. Didn't they even say the Raikage himself couldn't withstand the instant teleportation unlike his father? So how did he make the trip? Tsunade using her chakra reserve jutsu on both of them to protect them from the strain of the teleportation while simultaneously healing Raikage's arm could make sense.

Im in the camp that Naruto will choose the path of his mentor Jiraiya and travel around the world ensuring peace prospers throughout the ninja world, leaving the daily tasks of hokage to someone like Konohamaru.

Waiting on pins and needles for the Sauce 2.0 (now with more Susanoo bullshit), wondering who he'll off to secure his endgame position as a villain. Sure, his actions at the Kage summit and killing Danzo were steps into the dark but we need an important character's blood to be on his hands already.

I vote Sakura.

**aru** · 2011-11-02 21:51

He doesn't care enough about Sakura to kill her. If anybody it would be Kakashi or the hokage.

Forgive me but since when has Konohamaru been mentioned or seen for that matter since the original Pein attacked the Leaf Village. Just curious how it's shoved down anyone throats since he hasn't appeared since then. It's along the lines of saying the female characters other than the 2 kages (and even then!) are useful additions to the story.

On a side note, if Naruto's clones all share a like mind, why wouldn't he "de-spawn" some of them to help with the fight with Madara?

I believe only the original body will get the memories of a clone, and only when that clone is unsummoned. That's how it used to work anyways.

**Uzor** · 2011-11-02 22:22

I think that's what he's saying.

Kakashi already died during the Pain arc. Sakura has been overall worthless but she was a part of team7 and the character Naruto's crushed on from the very beginning. What better way to completely obliterate the notion that Sasuke can be saved than having him wholly responsible for the death of a teammate? I really thought Kishi was gonna do it post-Danzo, but we're still left to wonder.

I'm really afraid Kishi's gonna have EMS Sauce take down Bee as a 'gotcha!' moment to make up for what happened the first time they met.

I think you missed out a huge chunk of pages where everyone got revived after Naruto talked to Pain.

Pain revived a lot of people with his remaining chakara, and Kakashi was revived.

**Souj** · 2011-11-02 22:34

He was getting at that killing off Kakashi again so soon would be repetitive and boring so the chances of him dying as of right now are low.

**boo** · 2011-11-02 22:37

oh sorry my bad then, lol. misread

^ This.

Killing Kakashi off again would have almost no emotional impact on the readers seeing as he died during the Konoha invasion arc. If Kishi wants to establish Sasuke as a villain which seems to be the case since the Kage summit, he has to off someone relevant who hasn't died before.
