Naruto Uzumaki (うずまきナルト, Uzumaki Naruto) is the title character and main protagonist of the series: Naruto. He is a genin from Konohagakure, a member of Team Kakashi, and the third and current jinchūriki of Kurama  the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox.

Background

Naruto was born as the son of the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, and Kurama’s second jinchūriki, Kushina Uzumaki. Naruto’s parents named him after the main character of Jiraiya’s first book, thus making the Sannin his godfather.

Prior to Naruto’s birth, his parents and the Third Hokage knew that the seal that kept Kurama within Kushina would be in danger of breaking during childbirth. To prevent that threat Kushina was taken a short distance outside of the village to give birth in a secure, secret location with Biwako Sarutobi and Taji as her midwives, a few ANBU as security, and Minato to keep the seal in place. However, immediately after Kushina gave birth, Tobi appeared and took Naruto hostage, demanding that Minato step away from Kushina or he would kill the newborn child. He then used a clever diversion that forced Minato to transport the baby to a safer location, allowing him to escape with Kushina. By the time Minato could intervene, Tobi had already succeeded in releasing Kurama.

Fortunately, Kushina (who survived the extraction thanks to her strong vitality) was saved by Minato and brought to Naruto, leaving the weakened mother to care for the sleeping Naruto while Minato went to combat Tobi. To save the village, Minato sacrificed his life to seal Kurama within Naruto, believing that his son would someday have need of the beast’s power to defeat Tobi.[6] Suddenly orphaned, Naruto was left to grow up knowing nothing of his parents, receiving only his mother’s last name because the Third Hokage thought that it was best that nobody knew that he was related to the Fourth Hokage.

Before Minato died, he asked that the villagers of Konoha view Naruto as a hero who had helped defeat Kurama. However, only a few of the villagers honoured his request, while most instead resented him for containing the fox that had destroyed their home. In light of this, the Third Hokage decreed that nobody should ever speak of the truth about Naruto, hoping that by doing this, their children would not resent him as they did. The children, however, followed their parents’ lead, despite not knowing why. Apart from the Third Hokage, Iruka Umino was the only one who acted as a surrogate family to the young Naruto along with the owner of Ramen Ichiraku: Teuchi and his daughter Ayame to some extent.

When Naruto first met Sasuke Uchiha in the Academy, they were matched to spar against each other. Naruto was excited at the opportunity to defeat Sasuke and become so popular like him, however he was easily beaten. By looking at Sasuke’s eyes, Naruto realised that they were filled with hatred. When Iruka told them to make the reconciliation seal, they both refused.Then, Naruto became determined to beat Sasuke, making him his rival. When Naruto found out that Sasuke was also an orphan, he was secretly happy for not being the only one alone and wanted to talk to him, but couldn’t because of his jealousy. Still, Naruto wished that, someday, Sasuke would acknowledge him as an equal.

Being the strongest of the nine tailed beasts, it is said that Kurama can create tsunamis and flatten mountains with just a single swipe from one of its tails. With its massive supply of chakra, it can turn its roar into a powerful shock wave that can repel and destroy anything within its radius, increase its physical strength and speed, and fire Tailed Beast Balls. In the anime, it was shown to be able to create twisters and breathe fire.

During its battle with Naruto in his subconscious, it was shown that even though it had its Yin chakra sealed away, Kurama was more than powerful enough to overwhelm the Eight-Tails’ attempts to restrain it (although Killer B stated that he didn’t have full access to his own powers within Naruto’s mind), and effortlessly block Naruto’s Sage Art: Ultra-Big Ball Rasengan with its tails Naruto also noted that it was extremely fast despite its massive size.Later, even after most of its chakra was taken by Naruto, it still had enough to create a Tailed Beast Ball many times its own size. If its jinchūriki dies (causing Kurama to die with them), Kurama will later revive.

With that, Naruto was able to finally open his eyes with Bee and Yamato waiting for him.  Bee asked him what happened they bumped first and Bee seemed to understand everything.  Bee noted that that there is peacefulness in his expression now.  When Yamato asked if he was finally able to control the nine tails, only Bee and Naruto seemed to understand what “this” and “that” meant much to Yamato’s consternation.

Meanwhile, outside the cave, Guy found out from Aoba and Motoi that Naruto is in a dangerous training mission and wanted to be taken to him.

Naruto, on the other hand, explained that the Kyuubi’s chakra is in a separate place inside of him and that he won’t always be using them.

Then, he showed them how he is like when he uses them.  Yamato was amazed.  He said that Naruto is filled with life force and even his Mokuton is affected.

Suddenly, Naruto sensed someone else with them.  Bee said that if Naruto can sense another presense, then he must have been careless not to even notice.  Kisame is alarmed because his chakra is the same as Samehada and wonders how Naruto could sense his presense.  But Naruto declared that it was not a chakra but a vague sense of malice.  He immediately pointed to the sword to which Kisama jumped from.  He said that it must be the power of a host in control of a Kyuubi to sense hatred and evil because none of the sensor types could feel it.

Bee asked how he escaped when he thought he already cut his head off.  Kisame said that he switched with a clone even while they were submerged in water.  Bee argued that clones disappear once dead and C would have sensed if someone else took his place.  Kisame added that the clone is special that it is like a parasite that could be controlled remotely.  Kisame then opened the doorway, much to Bee’s amazement, to escape as two jinchuurikis are a bit much even for him.  But even before Kisame could make his move to escape, Naruto already hit him in a flash.

Bee and Yamato were amazed.  Bee asked if that was a Shunshin no Jutsu. He said Naruto is in the offensive and moved like a golden flash.  However, Naruto was stuck in the wall, as he hit Kisame too hard.  Kisame was able to escape.  Yamato asked Bee to follow him while he assist Naruto as he’s not as good as the Yondaime just yet.

Outside the Fall of Truth, Aoba and Motoi explained how Naruto fought his inner self.  Due to their prodding, Guy stepped in as well and a shadow appeared telling him that he really shouldn’t go around talking about youth this and youth that all the time or else an old man like him might do himself harm if he’s not careful.  It said that he knows he wanted to be youthful in front of Lee but that no one wants to be youthful forever.  Guy asked him to show himself if he is going to talk like that.  All of a sudden, it was Kisame who came out, still cloaked inside Samehada.  Guy actually thought that his true self is some sort of a weird animal until Aoba and Motoi told him to be careful because that is not his true self.  And using Konoha Kaigansho, Guy struck Kisame using his elbows.

Kushina said that Naruto is their son and Minato argued that it is why he does not want him to bear such burden on his own.  Kushina then asked why it has to be the Dead Demon Seal.  She argued that he need not die just so she could meet him for a few minutes when he is older.  She wants him to be there for Naruto and to raise him up.  She asked him why he needs to sacrifice Naruto to preserve the balance of the Tailed Beast and to save the village, the country and her.

Minato answered that turning his back on the village and the country is just as bad as abandoning a child and that she should understand as she knew full well how her own country fell apart, that she knows tha pain of growing up without a home of your own and that she knows that they are a family of shinobi.  He said that even if he lived, he could never substitute for her.  There are things that only she could tell Naruto.  He said there are things that only mothers can do and he wants to do it for her even if it is just for the briefest moment.  He said this isn’t only for her but also for their son.  Dying to make a better life for his son, that is the stuff that the father should handle.

Just as the Dead Demon Seal is finished, the Third Hokage arrived but could not cross the barrier.  He immediately recognized the Dead Demon Seal.

Finally, he was able to seal half of the Kyuubi’s power in him.  He felt numb due to the heavy chakra.  The Third Hokage could not believe what he’s done.  Minato, on the other hand, proceeded with the Eight Trigrams seal.  The Kyuubi realized he is being sealed into Naruto after seeing the ceremonial throne of the Eight Trigrams Seal.  He tried to free himself from the chains that bind him and about to deliver a blow to Naruto but both Minato and Kushina blocked the attack.  They were both pierced by the Kyuubi.

Kushina said that if the father can do their job, then the mother should be better.  She said that he wins this argument and for the first time.  The Third Hokage and the other shinobi with him noticed they protected their child.  Minato said thank you to Kushina and summoned Gerotora.  He entrusted Gerotora with the key to the seal and instructed him to store it with Jiraiya.  The Third Hokage, on the other hand, realized that the Fourth Hokage saved the whole village by making his son the new jinchuuriki.

Once the key is safe, Minato performed another Eight Trigrams Seal and sealed both his and Kushina’s chakra into Naruto.  He told Kushina that they don’t have much time and if there is anything she wants to tell their son.  And she said to Naruto to be a good boy and not be a picky eater, to take a bath everyday and go to bed early and sleep well, to make friends and that it doesn’t matter how many but make sure they’re real friends, people he can trust even if they are few.  She added that he should study his ninjutsu and to listen to his teachers at the academy.  She said that he should avoid the three vices of a shinobi:  don’t borrow money if you can help it and save what you earn, no drinking alcohol until he is 20 and not to overdo it, and as for women, try not to pick a weird one and try to find someone like her.  She added a fourth which is to watch out for Jiraiya-sensei to Minato’s amusement.  She also said that he is going to experience a lot of pain and suffering but that he should remember who he is, find a goal and a drean and never stop until he’s made them all come true.  She said there’s so much more she wants to tell him and teach him, that she wants to stay with him and that she loves him.  She apologized to Minato for taking all their time.  Minato, on the other hand, has only one advice and that is to listen to his mother.

Kushina’s story has ended and she now apologized to Naruto for making him the Nine Tails vessel and left him with such a heavy burden, and that she was not there to raise him and love him.  But Naruto told her not to apologize because he never blamed them even if he did have such a hard time growing up.  He said he may have managed since he never had parents to understand what parental love is but now, he does because his parent gave up their lives for him.  He said they filled him with love before sealing the Nine Tails in him so he is here healthy and happy and he’s glad he is their son.  Kushina thanked Naruto for allowing her and Minato to be her parents and for being their son. With that, the last of Kushina’s chakra disappeared.

I am in so much tears right now.  :’(

As Minato is about to deliver a second strike, Madara teleports away.  But Minato immediately found him as he had him already marked.  Immediately, Minato placed a contract seal on Madara and removed his control over the Kyuubi.

The scene shifts to Iruka.  His mother is badly hurt and his father is telling him to run.  He wanted to stay but his father told him that parents are supposed to protect their children.

Meanwhile, Madara complimented the Fourth Hokage telling him that he indeed deserves the title but leaves a threat that someday it will be his again and disappeared.

Back in the village, the younger shinobis were placed on a protective barrier by Kurenai’s father.  Kurenai voiced out her discontent but her father said that she is a shinobi and may not have a long life. She is also a woman and his daughter and asked that she at least survive long enough to give him a grandchild and pass on the will of fire.

The Kyuubi, on the other hand is about to blast another Tailed Beast Ball and Minato immediately summoned Gamabunta and asked him to hold down the Nine Tails for a bit.  Gamabunta said he is not a miracle worker but Minato said that he just needs enough chakra to take the blast away from the village.  With that, he was able to teleport himself and the Kyuubi far away from the village and to where Kushina and Naruto is.  He immediately placed a barrier while Kushina’s draining chakra placed chains on the Kyuubi and subdue him planning to placed him back inside her.  Minato was caught off guard.  Kushina told him that she’ll drag the Kyuubi back inside her and die with it and that it will prevent the Kyuubi from coming back, at least for a while.  She said it was the only way to save him and Naruto and thanked Minato for everything.

The pain and helplessness was evident in Minato’s eyes.  He answered, “Kushina, you made me your husband.  You made me into the Fourth Hokage.  You made me this boy’s father.   And I…”

Kushina cut him off.  “Don’t look so sad, Minato,” she said, “I’m happy that you loved me. Happy that it’s our son’s birthday. Like, if I try to imagine surviving and the three of us living together, I can’t think of anything beyond ‘I’d be happy.’ If I had any regrets, it would be that I won’t see Naruto grow up.”

Minato said that she doesn’t have to take the fox with her and that they can use their last bit of chakra to see Naruto one more time.  He said that he will seal the last of her chakra inside Naruto with an Eight Trigrams Seal and lead the Kyuubi away.  He will seal the Kyuubi with a seal only a non-jinchuuriki like him can use, the Dead Demon Seal.  However, he said that he can only seal half of the Kyuubi’s power because it is too great and physically and conceptually impossible to completely seal him.  He said he cannot let the nine-tails be revived without a jinchuuriki because the balance of the tailed beasts will be destroyed.  But with the Dead Demon Seal, he can seal half the fox’s power along with himself and the remaining half with Naruto with Eight Trigrams Seal.  Kushina was shocked.  Minato, remembering Jiraiya’s words about the prophecy said that he’s confirmed two things: the man with the mask is the harbringer of disaster Jiraiya spoke of and Naruto will be the one to stop him, the Jinchuuriki who will blaze the trail to the future and that he is confident of his son.  Before Kushina could stop him, Minato brought out the Dead Demon Seal and asked Kushina to have faith in their son.

Awww, look at the happy couple. ... What?!? They're both dead?!? X_X

This is Dragon with this week’s Naruto breakdown.

Naruto 500 was a great chapter.

It didn’t have any action, but I think chapter 499 satisfied us for that matter.

What made this chapter great was the amount of information in it. Many theories were confirmed and others have started to develop, making people debate and wonder what really happened 16 years ago, the night of the Kyuubi’s attack.

In this chapter we get a glimpse of the truth.

It all started when Kushina was chosen as the second jinchuuriki of the Nine Tails and was brought to Konoha from the Whirlpool Country.

Even though they were from different countries, the Leaf's Senju and the Whirlpool's Uzumaki Clan were distant blood relatives.

Naruto, descendant of the Uzumaki Clan, is a very distant relative of the Senju and the Sage of Six Paths.

That might also explain his transformation in the 499th chapter. Naruto, a relative of the Rikudo Sage, absorbed a very big part of the Juubi which probably brought his chakra and power level closer to the Sage’s.

The people of the Whirlpool Village had extremely long lives and the Uzumaki Clan specialized in Fūinjutsu, sealing techniques.

Kushina taught Minato lots of sealing jutsu. One of these, the Four Element seal is identical to the Uzumaki Clan’s symbol which is used by Konoha shinobi as a symbol of friendship and goodwill.

In times of war, people came to fear the Uzumaki’s sealing techniques and for this reason the Whirlpool Country was destroyed and the survivors escaped to other countries.

Kushina was one of them and was chosen to be the Kyuubi’s next jinchuuriki for her strong chakra and because her predecessor was also a powerful female ninja called Mito Uzumaki. She was the First Hokage’s wife and during the battle against Madara she sealed the Kyuubi inside her own body to help him. By the way, she has a seal on her forehead identical to Tsunade’s… Maybe she could use the Creation Rebirth technique too and she taught it to Tsunade?

Speaking about Tsunade, this chapter proves that she and Naruto are not-so-distant relatives, because if Tsunade is Hashirama’s grandaughter then that means he had a son or a daughter with Mito which had Tsunade; that means that she has Uzumaki and Senju blood in her, so she could be Naruto’s distant cousin or aunt because Mito Uzumaki and Kushina are related in some way (maybe Mito is Kushina’s aunt).
Wow, Naruto thought he didn’t have any family in Konoha, but now he’s related to almost all the Hokages… >_>

Kushina was a great jinchuuriki for the Kyuubi, but it was released thanks to Madara when the seal was at its weakest: the moment of Naruto’s birth.

16 years ago, October 10th, everything was ready for Naruto’s birth. A trusted team of Anbu would have guarded a place outside of  the village, while Minato kept the seal under control and the Third Hokage’s wife Biwako and a medical ninja called Taji would have helped with the birth.

Scream all you want, Sasuke fangirls!!! Your idol is a girl! Muahahah- *gets hit in the head by 50 crazy fangirls*

On their way to the place, they met an infant Sasuke and his mother, Mikoto who tells them she called her son Sasuke just like the Third Hokage’s father, hoping he’ll grow up to be a fine shinobi. Dream on, Mikoto, dream on… <_<

Anyway, it’s time for Kushina to give birth.

With the Bloody Habanero screaming in agony, the Kyuubi trying to free itself, Konoha’s Yellow Flash panicking and Biwako claiming women have babies because men can’t handle pain (LOL), everything’s going fine until a sinister and masked figure, after killing all the anbu that guarded the place, starts to phase through the walls looking for Kushina.

In the meantime, Naruto is finally born (I still think he’s prettier than Sasuke u.u ) and Minato prepares to restore the seal to full power…

but then the masked man grabs the newborn baby and threatens to kill him if Minato doesn’t back away from Kushina.

The happiness for becoming parents of a healthy baby is replaced by the horror of this vision: what will be Minato's decision???

I’m sure lots of people will have gasped and thought “…OMG. Madara’s such an a-hole” when they read the last page of this chapter because this is really a horrible thing, threatening to kill the newborn son of two parents.

I know that a few people have a theory that the masked man isn’t Madara, but the majority of you, including myself, are sure that he’s Madara, so, just to be sure, I’ll ask you who is the masked man?

Another question is if Mikoto told Madara that Kushina was going to give birth. They met when she was going somewhere with the Third Hokage’s wife and she might have understood what was going to happen.

We all know the Uchiha were planning a coup d’état and this might have been the time to take the Kyuubi and use it to rise to power. Maybe Mikoto told her husband who told Madara, so she didn’t mean any harm to her friend.

We still don’t know when the Uchiha started planning a coup d’état because maybe they started planning it after the Kyuubi’s attack or maybe long before it.

Anyway, what is that strange jutsu the masked man used against those anbus and wants to use on Naruto???

To me it looks like Scar‘s technique from FMA, he places his hand on your face and then you die… O_O

Well, that’s it for this week’s breakdown and my crazy theories.

Debate in the comment section and here’s your demotivational poster!

There were tons of demotivational posters this week, so tell me which one you prefer between the one above and the posters on this page.

See you all next week with the rest of the truth (hopefully)! ^_^

Hey there everyone!

This is Dragon with Naruto Chapter 499 Breakdown!

If you haven’t read this awesome chapter yet then click here.

Naruto has binded the Kyuubi with Kushina's chains... This fox is gonna get a beating it won't forget... O_O

Naruto 499 was awesome! There was action, animal abuse (seriously XD), story development and the cliffhanger was awesome. Tell me what you thought about Naruto 499 in the comment section.

The chapter starts with Naruto thinking about his mother’s love for him and his positive emotions push the Kyuubi’s hate back, stopping his transformation.

Kushina tells him she can’t hold the Nine Tails down for long and Naruto makes some shadow clones.

Our Orange Sage attacks with a Rasengan Barrage, but the Kyuubi breaks the chains and fights back.

Kushina has one chain left and makes the Nine Tails trip, giving Naruto time to activate Sage Mode and make his rasengans bigger.

…That didn’t sound right. X_X

Now this is what I call animal abuse. 0_0

While Naruto’s clones try to take the Kyuubi’s chakra, he throws a rasenshuriken at it and completely separates it from its chakra, leaving it emaciated and anorexic.

Something strange happens, just as he absorbs the Kyuubi’s chakra…

OMGWTFBBQ!!! The Sage of Six Paths!!! *gasps and then faints*

*gets up and pretends nothing happens*

Naruto transforms into the Sage of the Six Paths! Why? Is he related to him, to the Senju and the Uchiha or is it simply because the Kyuubi is a part of the Juubi which was contained in the Sage?

I think he is somehow related to the Sage by the Senju’s side.

That would mean Kushina is related to the Sage…

and so is Sasuke. O_O

Anyway, the Nine Tails spits out a huge Chakra sphere, becoming even more anorexic (almost as much as Paris Hilton) and is about to throw it at Naruto, but he uses the seal on his stomach to trap the Kyuubi inside a cage that it recognizes as one of the Sage’s tecniques. While it disappears in the darkness it tells Naruto it won’t forget this… 0_0

Naruto says he’s sorry and tells the Kyuubi to wait.

Kushina says that she can follow after Minato now, but first she has to tell her son the Truth behind the incident 16 years ago…

She was the Kyuubi’s previous Jinchuuriki.

WTF?!? Oh well, you know what they say... Like mother, like son... <_<

Lol, I know that’s not what they say.

Anyway, such an awesome cliffhanger!!! Now we only have to wait two weeks… -_- T_T

Tell me what you think will happen in next week’s chapter in the comment section.

That’s it for the breakdown!

Here’s your demotivational poster, people!

And next time, the awesome 500… @__@

最强 Dragon

Read Naruto 498 here.

Hey there everyone! This is Dragon with this week’s Naruto breakdown!

Naruto 498 wasn’t as good as 497, but still great in my opinion. There wasn’t any action (if you don’t count Naruto’s mom beating him up ) but Kushina had a long talk with Naruto, unlike Minato. We found out how they fell in love and Kushina tells her son that she loves him.

Khehehe... That laugh is evil! Is Naruto's mom a demon like Kiba's?!? 0_0

Naruto asks Kushina who she is and why does she know his name. She tells him to guess and after hearing her demonic laugh he says that she’s the Kyuubi’s true form.

Kushina angrily punches him while exclaiming Dattebane, just like Naruto says Dattebayo. She says that she’s always been hot-tempered and hoped that her son wouldn’t end up saying nonsense words when he gets excited, just like her.

Naruto realizes who Kushina is and remains speechless. He then hugs his mother.

Naruto realizes that Kushina is his mother and, overcome with joy, embraces her.

Naruto starts crying and his transformation stops. He tells Kushina how he has always wanted to meet her and she tells him they’ll have a long talk, but the Kyuubi will stay out of it.

Using her own chakra, she takes the hatred from Naruto and binds the Nine Tails with some chains. It is unable to break free and is shocked when it recognizes Kushina’s chakra.

Kushina has tons of pent-up sexual frustration... Will the Kyuubi become her new sex toy?!? O_O RUN FOX, RUN!!!

Lol, that is kinda strange.

The Kyuubi is the strongest tailed beast (not counting the Juubi who is a fusion of all the bijuus) and it shouldn’t be captured so easily. It could be weak because it isn’t free yet or maybe Kushina’s chakra is so special that it can suppress tailed beasts. Maybe Naruto has that special chakra too?!?

Anyway, Kushina tells Naruto that Minato used a bit of her chakra in the seal so it would be easier for him to control the Kyuubi.

Naruto isn’t listening and tells his mother that he’s happy that she’s a babe, because that means he’s a hunk. She says he has her face and Minato’s hair, but he says he would have liked having her hair. Kushina tells him he’s the second man who complimented her hair, the first being Minato.

Naruto asks her to tell him how she and his father fell in love and, much to her embarrassment, she starts telling him.

Kushina moved to Konoha when she was a kid and when she first saw Minato she didn’t like him.

She wanted to make an impression because she was the new kid and said her dream was to be the first female Hokage. Her classmates started making fun of her, calling her tomato because she had red hair and a round face, so she beat them half to death.

Moms are scary Naruto... *door opens behind me* WHAT DID YOU SAAAAAY?!!!? X_X

Naruto asks Kushina what was Minato’s dream and she says it was to be acknowledged by everyone in the village and become Hokage, Naruto’s same dream.

Kushina never thought Minato would become Hokage and ignored him until a certain incident.

Kushina had been kidnapped by Kumo (Bee’s village) for her special chakra. Without them noticing, she pulled her red hair out one strand at a time to leave a trail for the search squad from Konoha.

No one found her and she started giving up, but then Minato found her. He was the only one to notice her trail and saved her. He told her that he noticed her beautiful hair right away.

Minato looked like the most magnificent shinobi ever, a man who could make Kushina’s dreams come true and he changed her. Her bright red hair had led her to her soulmate.

This is how Minato and Kushina's love bloomed... All thanks to the ADIDAS track sweater. XD

Naruto smiles and Kushina says there’s a special little something she says to the men who compliment her hair… She tells him she loves him.

Kushina is proud of her son and expresses her never-ending love for him.

Kushina then jokingly asks Naruto what is the product of Konoha’s Yellow Flash and the Bloody Habanero. Having inherited the wills of his father and mother, he proudly answers that he is Konoha’s Orange Hokage!

That’s it for the chapter.

I think that Naruto will continue fighting the Kyuubi in the next chapter, maybe with Kushina’s help. If he doesn’t defeat it in 499, he’ll surely defeat it in Naruto 500, thus commemorating this manga’s 500th chapter with the epic end to an epic fight!

That’s it for this week’s breakdown! Spoilers are in the comment section and here’s the demotivational poster!

See you all next week!!! ^_^

Gaara explains that he is once a host and that Akatsuki captured him and nearly killed him and therefore believes how dangerous they are.  He said that he requested aid from the other Kages many times but he was ignored except for the former Hokage though at this point, with so many hosts captured, it is too late for an aid.

The Tsuchikage replied that if a country has had it’s host captured, it has no business giving other countries orders.  He said it is an embarrassment and he should have tried to recover it in secret.  He addes that once it is stolen, he cannot expect other countries to help him.

Gaara replied that appearance and honor are old-fashioned thinking and that he has no time for that.

Mizukage replied that just because the beast had been stolen is no reason to be afraid. She added that it takes time and knowledge and skill to be able to control them.  Tsuchikage added again that the host must grow with the beasts in order to adapt to them and that even control is difficult and will not happen immediately insinuating that Gaara must know this.

Danzo then added that in any event, the only ones who can truly be said to have controlled the beasts are Uchiha Madara, the 1^st Hokage Hashirama, the 4^th Mizukage Yagura (which I now realize is the one that looked like Yuukimaru in the anime and one of the hosts as well),  and the Raikage’s brother Killerbee.  The Raikage suddenly burst out and shouted for them to stop yapping.

A fight suddenly starts to break between the guards watching.  The Samurai came to stop them and Mifune told them that they are here to talk and to refrain from such display of rudeness.  The Kages told their guards to stand down.

The Raikage then spoke up and said that the Akatsuki is made up of missing-nin from the villages of Konoha, Iwa, Suna and Kiri.  He said that aside from that, he knows that some Kages amongst them, including former Kages, have used Akatsuki for their own purposes.

Gaara asked what he meant by using Akatsuki but the Raikage cut him off.  He said he is not speaking to him as he does not trust him.  He said that he called all of them in this meeting to find out where their loyalties lie.  But Gaara would not be stopped and asked what he meant by “used Akatsuki.” Raikage told him he is the Kazekage and nobody told him.  He told Gaara to ask his elders about using the Akatsuki In their own wars.

The Tsuchikage explained.  He said that the great countries are enjoying a time of relative peace, moving from military expansion to disarmament.  As tensions ease between the countries, the threat of war grows smaller. Military villages are a drain on a country’s resources but there is a risk.  If a war suddenly breaks out they cannot rely on untested ninjas in the heat of battle or else they would lose war.

Gaara understood that one way of dealing with that is to use mercenary force like Akatsuki.

The Tsuchikage added that it would take time and money for a village to build such a force themselves but Akatsuki  were professionals and could be relatively hired for little and that they could give good results.

The Raikage said he doesn’t want to hear it.  He said that Suna used Akatsuki to try and destroy Konoha.  He said it was unclear whether Orochimaru was still a member of Akatsuki back then.  He said that both the former Kazekage and Hokage ended up dying.  Looking at Danzo, he added that he can’t help but think that it must have been part of someone’s plot.

The Raikage then looked at the Mizukage and said that Kirigakure is most suspicious.  He said that they do not have any diplomatic relations with other countries and that there is a rumor that the Akatsuki was formed in Kirigakure.

Ao, the Mizukage’s guard is thinking about a suspicion that their former 4^th Mizukage was being controlled by someone.  The Mizukage, on the other hand, told the Raikage that it might have been the Akatsuki but she did not want to make a big deal out of it to the Raikage’s fury. Before he can speak, the Tsuchikage told him to watch his mouth.  He goes on to say that because he was trying to amass power and techniques during that time of disarmament that other countries were forced to hire Akatsuki in the first place.

Danzo then cut them both off before it evolves into another fighting.  He said that he wanted to tell them something.  He said that Akatsuki’s leader is almost certainly Uchiha Madara.  The four Kages were rendered speechless.

The Tsuchikage said that he thought he was long dead.  Danzo replied that he does not understand either but that the source is certain.  The Tsuchikage said he never imagined him to be a monster literally.

Mifune now speaks out.  He said that as a neutral country, he thinks that the leader of the Akatsuki read the signs of the times.  That he used stability and the suspicion of other countries to increase his own power and that at this rate, even the Land of Iron could be affected.  However, he added, there is a silver lining.  He said it is rare that the Five Kages came to meet together.  He suggested that until Akatsuki is taken cared of, they should form a Five-Village Alliance.

The Raikage seemed surprised with the suggestion.  Danzo said that it is a good idea and in this state of emergency  they should cooperate.  Mifune added that the chain of command should be uniform to avoid confusion.  The Tsuchikage asked then who would have this authority over this new army.

Mifune replied that they would only fight amongst themselves, and asked them to respect his decision as a neutral country.  He said he will decide who is best suited to the job.  Danzo, in his mind, is thinking that Tsunade’s time is over.

Meanwhile, back in Konoha, Sai asked to speak with Sakura.  He told her what Naruto had done.  He said that Naruto is protecting Sasuke and that he let the Kumogakure ninjas beat him up.  He told Sakura that Naruto asked him not to tell her because he doesn’t want her to worry.  He also told Sakura that Naruto went to ask the Raikage to forgive Sasuke even if he thinks it is pointless.

A distracted Sakura asks why Naruto would do that and if Kakashi is with him.  Sai told her Kakashi has faith in Naruto and that he thinks Kakashi wants to give Naruto a chance even if it is useless.  He told Sakura that he became part of Team 7 recently when he replaced Sasuke so he doesn’t really know everything that is going on.  He said he does not understand people either and that he doesn’t know what promises Naruto made to her  but that he can tell that Naruto loves her.

Sakura remembers the time she asked Naruto to bring Sasuke back.  He remembered Naruto telling her that he knows she loves him and that she is suffering.  He told her he feels it too and swore to bring Sasuke back.  Sakura cried at the memory.

Sai told her that Naruto has been shouldering that promise for a long time, and that he means to shoulder it for the rest of his life.  He added that he doesn’t know what Sakura told Naruto but that it is just like what has been done to him and that it feels like a curse.  He said that Sasuke causes Naruto pain.  But he thinks Sakura does that as well.  (Sai, that is just too cruel! True, but cruel.  But I guess someone has to really tell Sakura just that because she is so clueless!)

Back in the summit meeting, Mifune says that the only host left is Konoha’s Nine-Tailed Beast and therefore, he proposes Danzo to lead the alliance to the Raikage’s fury.

Kakashi said that Danzo knows that he will react that way.  He asked what he will do once he face Danzo.  Naruto said he’ll attack him and make him change his mind.  Kakashi goes to explain that the Jonins may not have voted yet and Danzo is Hokage for the time being.  He said that Naruto can get thrown into jail.  When Naruto said he doesn’t care, Kakashi goes to explain further.  He said that the nine tailed beast is within him and therefore, Danzo wants to keep him in the village.  If he does go to him, he’ll be playing right into Danzo’s hands and he won’t be able to look for Sasuke so he needs to stay calm.

Meanwhile, Danzo is speaking with Sai.  He wants Sai to keep an eye on Naruto and instructed him to tell him immediately if he does anything out of the ordinary.  Sai asks him what he plans to do with Naruto.  Danzo said that Naruto is considered a hero right now and the villagers believe in Naruto more than they believe in him so if he does anything to Naruto, it will reflect on him as Hokage.  He said that with the vote coming up, it’s a critical time.  However, he goes on to say that Naruto is a host and therefore, he needs to keep an eye on him.  He said he won’t be as weak as Tsunade.

Outside, Sai is reflecting to himself if he should just relax when he met up with Naruto and Sakura.  They want Sai to tell them more about Danzo.  Sai said he can’t talk about Danzo because of a cursed seal placed by Danzo on all foundation members of the root division.  He said that if he talks about him, his whole body will be paralyzed and he will be unable to talk or move.  He said that Danzo and the foundation are top secret, that they have done dirty deeds to protect the village so Danzo has to be sure no information can get out even if they get captured.  Sakura asked how could Danzo do that to his men.  Sai said that that is how he protected the village and though they may not approve of his methods, he cares about the village.  Sakura then asked how could he then go back from his promise to Tsunade not to kill Sasuke.  Sai said he didn’t know about that.

Just then, Omi and Karui showed up pointing a sword at Sakura asking them what they know about Sasuke since they seemed to be friends with him.  A fight broke down between them.  Sakura then noticed that they’re Kumogakure ninjas and asked what they were doing in Konoha.  But Omi ignored the question and asked what they know about Sasuke since they were talking about him.  Sakura demanded what does it have to do with them.  Omi replied that Sasuke attacked their village and that he took their master.  He said they don’t even know if their master is dead or alive.  Sakura asked why Sasuke would do that.  Omi only replied that who knows what Akatsuki wants.  Naruto was confused as to why they referred to Akatsuki and both replied that Sasuke is a member of Akatsuki.  They told them that their Raikage sent them to Konoha because Konoha let Sasuke, a missing-nin, run free.  They added that they now have permission to kill Sasuke from the Hokage and they will have their revenge.  Naruto was shocked that Sasuke attacked their master and has become a member of the Akatsuki.

Chapter 440 Page 1

So, Yondaime Hokage appeared just as Naruto was about to release the Kyuubi’s seal.  Outside Naruto’s consciousness, Deva was surprised to find an eight-tailed Kyuubi Naruto broke out of Chibaku Tensei and said he might need a bigger one then.  So, fortunately, Naruto still hasn’t fully transformed even though it showed previously on Yamato’s hand the number “9″.

Eight Tailed Transformation

Eight Tailed Transformation in color

This chapter is mostly a conversation between father and son.  It’s just so sweet.  Kyuubi told Yondaime to come closer so he could rip him to shreds.  But Yondaime said that saying that will not make him come closer.  Naruto, still probably shocked and haven’t absorbed the fact he just heard, asked Yondaime how he knew his name.  He said he knew, of course, because he gave him his name because he is his heir.  He told Naruto directly that he is his son.   Naruto’s facial expression changed from confused to realization to happiness.  When Kyuubi tried to interrupt them again, Yondaime said they should talk somewhere else.  With a flick of a hand, they went from a dark place to a place full of light.

Yondaime Hokage telling Naruto he is his son

Naruto's mixed emotions

Yondaime then went to explain to Naruto that the 3rd didn’t tell him anything afterall to probably keep everything about the fox a secret because if people knew he is his son, there could be trouble.  He apologized.  Naruto then punched Yondaime in the stomach.  Crying, he asked how he could seal the fox inside his own son; if he knew how much trouble it has caused him.  Naruto told Yondaime he’s not sure whether he’d be happy or pissed off.

Naruto punches his father, the 4th Hokage

Yondaime was apologetic.  When he asked how old he is he acknowledged how hard it was for him and that he should not act like a father when apologizing.  But Naruto said it was okay since he is the son of the 4th Hokage, he can deal with it.  Yondaime’s expression was so cute here, he looks like a kid caught in the act of causing mischief.

Yondaime Hokage

Then the conversation turned serious.  He goes to explain his past actions to Naruto.  He explained the reason why he sealed half the fox’s chakra inside him is because he believed he could use it since he is his son.  Another reason is that when the Kyuubi attacked Konoha 16 years ago, he realized someone was controlling the Kyuubi.  And that someone is so powerful, there’s no way to fight him without some special power.  He told him he believes that that person will attack Konoha again.  Naruto told him that Konoha has already been destroyed.  Yondaime said he knows that because he saw from inside him.  He said he knows about Jiraiya as well.  When Naruto said if it was Pain who attacked Konoha before, Yondaime said it was someone else.  An Akatsuki member wearing a mask and they both thought of Tobi.  He said he’s using Pain.  Naruto said that Pain already hates Konoha.  Yondaime explained that because of that hatred, he is being used by the masked person.

Naruto asked why this is happening to Konoha.  Yondaime said that as long as the ninja system exists, there can be no peace and order.  He goes on to explain Pain’s question about peace.  He said that trying to save the things you love breeds war.  As long as love exists, there will be hatred and ninjas will be used by that hatred.  And as long as the ninja system exists, the hatred will create another creature like Pain.  He said Pain killed Jiraiya but the more he thinks about it, the more he believes that Jiraiya was really killed by the disorder that gave birth to Pain.  He goes on to say that ninjas fight that hatred and Jiraiya has entrusted him to end that hatred.

Naruto, crying more, said he could not forgive Pain.  He asked Yondaime what he should do.  Yondaime said he’s got to find the answer himself.  Naruto that it’s not fair.  If Yondaime and Jiraiya could not find the answer, how could he? He said he’s stupid and he’s not a great ninja.  Before Naruto could finish, Yondaime patted his head and said he will find the answer and that he believes in him.  He said parents always believed in their children.

"I believe in you."

After that Yondaime said his chakra is fading and he needs to go.  Before he disappeared, he restored Naruto’s seal but said that it will be the last time.  He told Naruto Konoha can be rebuilt and reiterated that he believes in him.  Then, he faded.  Naruto thanked him, calling him “Dad.”

The eight tailed transformation of Naruto disappeared then and reverted to Naruto in his sage mode.  And it says that the battle between Naruto and Pain will come to a head in the next chapter.

Naruto back in Sage Mode

Well, now two of my questions in my previous post about the “Things I can’t wait to find out in Naruto” has been answered.  First, Naruto was indeed clueless about his parentage until now.  Though it still didn’t answer who Naruto thought his parents were, if he even wondered who they were.  Secondly, that it is indeed Tobi/Madara Uchiha who is controlling the “Akatsuki.”

Looks like Minato knew that Madara was behind the Kyuubi attack and that Naruto fought him as Tobi or something like that.
The later part I added is about Minato could hear about Jiraiya’s death in Naruto’s consciousness. Then Minatos fixes the seal and is low on chakra and leaves(?).

-The chapter is mostly talking.
-Naruto punches Yondaime for putting 9-Tails in him but after talking he’s satisfied.
-Naruto asks for help in answering Pain’s question. Yondaime says Naruto will be able to find the answer.
-Pain is being used by Madara who was behind the 9-Tails attack 16 years ago. Naruto realizes Tobi=Madara.
-Naruto uses Sennin-mode to escape the sphere and Nagato comments that Naruto is back to himself.
-Next chapter is “The Final Battle with Pain”

Extra stuff: Yondaime fixes the 9-Tails seal on Naruto stomach and is alive inside Naruto’s consciousness and thus knows Jiraiya is dead.

Chibaku Tensei

So Nagato, through Deva Path, cast Chibaku Tensei.  Konan told Nagato he didn’t have to do it as he is in no shape, but he just told her to shut up so he could concentrate. A small ball of energy formed between Deva’s palms and then he threw it into the sky right on top of Konoha.  Then it started to attack everything into it like a magnet.  Rocks, boulders formed into it.  Trees were uprooted.  Even the ground where Kyuubi Naruto is was drawn into it.  It caused Nagato’s nose to bleed even more.  Kyuubi Naruto cast a huge energy ball while he was being sucked into it.  I think, he is still somehow imprisoned inside it when it formed into a huge ball hovering on top of Konoha. 

Nagato's Chibaku Tensei technique

Konan told Nagato there was no need to do that but Nagato told him he can’t go easy on him since it is the nine tailed demon fox they were talking about.  He said it was nothing compared to what the Sage of the Six Paths created.  As long as he’s captured the Kyuubi, it was well worth it. 

Meanwhile, we are now able to glimpse inside Naruto’s consciousness.  Naruto is surrounded by darkness and is feeling so much pain.  He’s asking why everything happened the way it did.  Nagato’s question on how he is to face this hatred is ringing in his head.  His helplessness is hurting him.  Then the Kyuubi called his name.  A white energy ball is shown to come out of Pain’s Chibaku Tensei.  Naruto shouted for someone to help him and give him answers. 

Kyuubi spoke to him and told him to destroy everything that hurts him.  He told Naruto that if he gives him his heart, he will save him from his pain.  Just then, the seal formed back into Naruto’s stomach and formed into a different kind of whirlpool like seal.  Until it bled out and Naruto’s eyes went blank, as if all emotions flew out of him.

Naruto's Seal Breaking

Naruto's Seal Bleeding

The number “8″ formed into Yamato’s palm.  Yamato said it’s really bad.  But Kyuubi Naruto has then broken out of the Chibaku Tensei with his eight tails.  Instead of the bones, muscles formed out of Naruto’s body while it is breaking free of the huge ball that imprisoned him.  Kyuubi, inside Naruto, is telling him to remove the seal on the gate that is imprisoning him inside Naruto.  Just then, the number “9″ appeared in Yamato’s palm. 

Naruto was already holding the seal and about to strip it off when another hand held into his arms.  It’s Yondaime Hokage!  He then pulled Naruto away from the seal.  Kyuubi saw him and recognized him immediately.  Yondaime said that the seal is set that if eight tails are released, he will appear within his consciousness.  He said he didn’t want that to happen as he never wanted to see him again.  However, he looked forward to seeing how his son had grown so that would make them even.  Naruto seemed to be surprised.  He said the word, “But…” so I can’t seem to determine if he knew Yondaime was his father all along or did he find out just now when he claimed him to be his son. 

Naruto's father: Yondaime Hokage

Chibaku Tensei (地爆天星) – Surface Burst Heavenly Subjugation.

A “Surface Burst” is a type of explosion where the blast is at surface level or just above surface level, such that the radius of the fireball causes a crater and sends a shockwave through the ground. In contrast with an “Air Burst”, the overall destructive radius of a surface burst is smaller but the destruction at ground zero is more concentrated. Usually used to describe nuclear explosions.

– Chapter ends. –

The scene shifts back to Deva and Kyuubi Naruto.  Hinata is also shown with blood sprouting from her mouth.  Since Naruto is wearing the First Hokage’s necklace, it immediately tried to send some white energy all over him, probably to contain his transformation.  Even Deva was surprised with what it is that is trying to keep hold of Naruto.  He wondered if it was some sort of seal.  But almost immediately, Kyuubi Naruto grabbed hold of the pendant and crushed it with his hands.  The seal was immediately broken.

Kyuubi Naruto Breaking the Seal

Deva then used Shinra Tensei. But, as expected of the strongest and most powerful bijuu, Kyuubi Naruto was not even affected.  He just reflected the technique back to Deva and he was flung back with an extreme force.  Hinata seemed to be semi-conscious calling Naruto’s name (but probably only subconsciously as it was not inside a dialogue balloon).  Then Deva tried to cast Bansho Tenin as well to no effect.  Naruto simply crushed his technique which created a huge explosion.

Hinata is still alive

Sakura asked the guy from the Hyuga clan what seems to be going on.  He’s not sure what to say but he can see six tails and that Naruto might just transform completely at the rate he’s going.  Sakura was aghast, knowing full well the destructive power of the Kyuubi.  She immediately told Katsuyu to tell everyone to get out of there and take shelter.  The other Katsuyu immediately informed Shikamaru and the rest of his team to get to safety because the part of him that is with Naruto has conveyed the power of the nine tailed fox.  Inoichi said he thought Yamato and Kakashi had already done another sealing technique on Naruto.  Katsuyu explained that Hinata fell trying to protect Naruto which triggered his transformation.

Meanwhile, Yamato is with Sai and Anko outside Konoha and it seems that they were on a mission to locate Kabuto.  Just as Sai has located Kabuto, a number “6″ appeared on Yamato’s palm.  He was also astounded.  He said that Naruto broke the seal and is currently in a six tailed mode.  He said it’s an emergency and he needs to return to Konoha immediately.

Deva is now seen with his clothes torn apart and Kyuubi Naruto emerging from the rubbles caused by his Bansho Tenin.  He acknowledges the amazing power of the Kyuubi.  He changed direction and ran away from the attacking Kyuubi Naruto.  The shinobi from Hyuga clan informed Sakura that they are getting further and further away from the village, that it seems like Deva is running away from Kyuubi Naruto. Gamatatsu laughed but Sakura said it is no laughing matter.  She said it’s their chance to get Hinata, then someone needs to do something about Naruto because in his Kyuubi form, she explained, Naruto does not recognize friend or foe and he’ll attack anyone.  In the meantime, she will try to get hold of Yamato.

However, Deva is not really running away from Kyuubi Naruto.  Instead it was his intention to get closer to Nagato’s position.  When Nagato felt that Deva is near enough, he performed another jutsu… Chibaku Tensei!

Chibaku Tensei

And what that jutsu is, we’ll find out next week.

I wonder what this jutsu will do.  They have so far captured seven out of nine bijuus already.  Kirabi was probably spared simply because he chose to be smart, than actually fight Sasuke and his team.  Is the Akatsuki that strong to capture the bijuus?  According to my previous blog on the bijuus, in the Japanese myth the Kyuubi is the strongest and undefeated bijuu for a simple reason — he’s got an unlimited amount of power.  In the ninja world though, the Rinnegan is a dojutsu which presumably led the groundwork for the Sharingan and Byakugan.  It’s the jutsu of the Sage of the Six Paths which is believed to have founded the ninja world itself and considered as a god technique.  Will it defeat the Kyuubi or will the Kyuubi withstand it?  Naruto is after all the main character of the series, he can’t die, can he?

终于把这个半死的生活结束了。休息半个月，然后找半个月的工作。
被坑了两天的工资，早该走了,,
拖了这么久，这样离梦想越来越远，刚看了‘智联招聘’和‘英才网’招人的不是很多。但是比我想 的好多，我辞 职的时候就没期望一开始好找，经济危机嘛，，
不论多么难都要朝着自己的梦想走，，
刚来的时候只是想见见世面，看看外面的世界。经过一段时间却不得不面对生存的问题。想象工作了 5个月究竟或 得了些什么，钱没有，认识了几个朋友（勉强算是把），学了一些管理思想。学了点。
下来想想这个半个月干点什么。。、
面对现实 还是要打工，，，
无奈，，，，，，，，
王大妈的电脑店不知道开了没；要刚的饰品店流产了；那些在学校学了syb的也不一定创业了把。 倒是tb那个 家伙不错，买个保险6k/yue，估计还有前途。。

Naruto VS Pain
Ultra-special edition!!
The man-to-man battle between Naruto and Pain is reaching its climax!
A thorough explanation about how that battle came to happen!!

-Under Pain’s name: For what reason does Akatsuki’s leader target Naruto?
Pain’s home, the Hidden Rain was ruined by the wars between the great countries. He endeavored to found the Akatsuki in order to share his pain with the world and impose his idea of peace.

-Under Naruto’s name: The comrades who fell victim to Pain
Jiraiya, Kakashi, Shizune, Fukasaku… Remembering all those lost to Pain pushes Naruto into action!! Entrusted with the Will of Fire, Will Naruto, the Child of Prophecy, be able to change the shinobi world?

In the middle: Hatred breeds hatred. The conclusion of the battle…!!

On Naruto’s side of the page:

Kakashi: He fights Tendou and Shuradou (Heaven and Demon Path), but gets crushed by Tendou’s Shinra Tensei. He depletes his chakra pool to save Chouji.
Jiraiya: Died in battle while investigating Pain in the Hidden Rain. He entrusts the info he’s gathered about Pain to Naruto.
Fukasaku: He taught Senjutsu to Naruto so he could fight Pain. Upon trying his genjutsu on Pain a second time, he gets interrupted and killed by him.
Shizune: Upon investigating Pain’s identity, she finds out Pain’s bodies are corpses. But Ningendou (Human Path) probes her mind and takes her life.

How far will Naruto’s Senjutsu prove efficient?
Upon becoming a Sage, Naruto became able to make a projectile rasenshuriken!! (something about how efficient the jutsu is). But Tendou repelled his jutsu. How will Naruto fare against him?

Tendou Pain’s Shinra Tensei!!
The power to repel things, Shinra Tensei. The power to attract things, Bansho Ten’in!! Shinra Tensei is used to deflect enemy jutsu. Tendou Pain destroyed the Leaf village with it!!

On Pain’s side

THE FIVE PAIN BODIES NARUTO DEFEATED!!

His village, a battle ground for the great countries!
His country ravaged by the wars between the great countries, Pain loses his family and his friends. (The rest is about hatred in the shinobi world, and what Pain plans to do about it.

(A portion of text I didn’t translate.)

Bring Pain to the world…
The greatest weapon, out of the bijuu’s chakra!

Jigokudou (Hell): The one with the ability to revive the others with the powers of Enma Dai-Ou. Naruto successfully brings him down with a double-rasengan.
Chikushoudou (Animal): The summoner Pain. He can summon animals, and is responsible for summoning the other Pains from outside the village, into its walls.
Shuradou: A massive, robot-lie body. (something kinda hard to read). Destroyed in one blow by Naruto.
Gakidou (Hungry Ghost): He absorbs any attack that isn’t taijutsu. He was turned into stone upon absorbing natural energy from Naruto.
Ningendou (Human): Reads and rips out people’s souls. The enemy dies instantly. He did this to Shizune, thus finding out Naruto wasn’t in the village.

Nagato, or Pain, continues his speech.  He said Naruto said his peace is a lie and counters that in this world, a peace where people truly understand one another is nothing but a fantasy.  Naruto shouted that he is wrong and that Jiraiya believed that day would come.  Pain said he is all talk and can do nothing about it except give him the nine-tailed fox.  That his death will lead to peace. 

Meanwhile, Shikamaru and the rest decided that they should split into two to look for Pain but in case they find him, not to do anything rash.  Shikamaru said there should be a detection ninja in each group if possible. Shika told his son to stay where he is with Shiho and Shikamaru said that unfortunately he really can’t move afterall.  The ANBU instructed Katsuyu to let everyone in the village who can still move and stand to help them out.  Team Gai, on the other hand, is almost back in Konoha when they saw Gamabunta. 

Deva Pain, on the other hand, has pinned Chakra blades all over Naruto.  He told him he avoided vital organs but he won’t be able to move.  Shima shouted to Naruto not to listen to him no matter what he says.  She told him he is the child of the prophecy who will save the ninja world so he cannot lose.  She reminded him that Jiraiya and Pa gave their lives for him because they believed in him and that they’ll never forgive him if he gives up now.  Pain said she is too noisy and silenced her with a shinra tensei and said it is time for him and Naruto to go.  But before he could take Naruto with him, Hinata arrives. 

Hinata said she won’t let him lay another finger on Naruto.  Naruto told her to get out of there and that she is no match for him.  But Hinata calmly said she knows that but that she is just being selfish. Naruto was flabbergasted.  But Hinata said she is there on her own free will.  She said she used to always cry and give up, and nearly went the wrong way but he (Naruto) showed her the right way.  She said she was always chasing him, wanting to overtake him, wanting to walk with him and be with him.  That he changed her and his smile saved her.  She told Naruto she is not afraid to die protecting him because she loves him. 

Hinata's Confession

Naruto was surprised and speechless.  Hinata then attacked Deva Pain.  But Hinata is no match for him.  She was immediately blocked and rendered unconscios with a Shinra Tensei.  When Deva is about to stab her with the chakra blade, Naruto shouted for him to stop.  But he stabbed her anyway in front of Naruto’s eyes.  He said that is just the way his parents were killed by Konoha ninjas in front of his eyes and added that love breeds sacrifice which breeds hatred and then Naruto can know pain.  Naruto’s anger could no longer be contained.  (I knew this would happen!)  Naruto finally loses control and with a huge menacing ball bursting from him, he transformed into six tails.  Remember that his last transformation is only four tails when he fought Orochimaru.  Now, it skipped the fifth and went on to a six-tailed transformation.  Pain asked if he hates him.  If he thinks people will undertand each other like this.  But Naruto seemed to already lose his consciousness to the demon fox.  The appearance of six tails brings Naruto’s body as close to the demon fox as possible, to the point where the demon fox’s bones form out of the intense chakra around his body.  But Pain is still unfazed.  He said that his pain is still greater than Naruto’s.

Six Tailed Transformation

What will happen now?  I hope Hinata is not yet dead because I really like her.  I like her more than Sakura and I think she’s better suited to Naruto.  And what will happen to Naruto?  Will he be able to break out from this transformation?  What damage could it do to himself?  He skipped the 5th tail transformation altogether.  When he was on the 4th tail, Yamato already had a hard time suppressing him and he ended up hurting Sakura.  Would he be able to control the Kyuubi like Killer Bee contolling his bijuu?  So many questions.  I can’t wait for the next installment.
