Thanks man, gonna go read it know. http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif
Good to be back, good that the manga was released.
That was a kool chapter. this fight looks like its gonna be crazy i wonder if itll end up like the other fights there both nearly dead, then kyuubi gives naruto some extra power lol http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/dry.gif but thatd be too pridicatable
how awesome would this situation be :
Naruto and Kimimaro fight, Kimimaro barely defeats Naruto and is about to leave with Sasuke - Sakon appears
"good work Kimimaro-sama, it seems you havent lost your touch even with the illness"
Kimimaro: "get out of my way"
Sakon: "actually i'll be the one taking Sasuke-kun to Orochimaru"
Kimimaro: "what?!"
Sakon: "your assistance was most appreciated but i cant let you take all the credit"
Sakon stabs Kimimaro and makes off with Sasuke
emotional moment with Kimimaro and Naruto, Naruto goes beserk with rage but its too late
202 got to be the "tell-all". http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif
noooooo it was all to short.
Anyways this has probably been said in the other thread but i think the guy on the cover of 200 might have been orochimaru. ????? Or i could be wrong.
Also I guess Naruto can summon the kyuubi's chakra a lot faster now.
202 will just be Tayuya fighting Shikamaru and Naruto squaring off with Kimimaro, it wont tell us anything i suspect http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/tongue.gif

Its Naruto, theres no doubt about it - he even has the spiral clan signia on his jumpsuit.
Also Orochimaru isnt that small and his new body doesnt really look like Naruto either
I'm hpoing the akatsuki will come back into the picture. I dunno maybe Naruto will start fighting with Kimimaro and Naruto will be getting his ass kicked. Then when Naruto unleashs the Kyuubi's power Itachi jumps in and knocks him out. Who knows maybe then sasuke will sense his brother and go crazy and break out.
Pretty far fetched. http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/laugh.gif
I'm still convince Itachi *WILL* show up and Naruto will be *BEATEN*. My personal guess would be Kimimaro hand kyuubi-mode Naruto his first defeat, about to finish him off and Itachi show up and claim this beaten idiot back to Akatsuki. Total lost for leaf, Konoha's next generation crumbles!
ok ok http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/em...s/mf_w00t1.gif Let's hope Masashi Kishimoto _NOT_ do something stupid like the leaf 5 boy team somehow all manage to get a pathetic victory.
Itachi isnt going to show up with no warning and just take him away, that'd be so stupid. Itachi probably doesnt even know what hes doing - whenever theres plans to do something we always get at least a panel of the characters face but theres been no mention of Itachi so hes definately NOT going to just pop up out of no where, we'll at least need a 'its time' or something first.
Completely agree with Insomniac.
Face it already, all of you Itachi-lovers, at the moment the main concern regarding the plot is Orochimaru. After that, it comes Akatsuki and Itachi.
I'm not saying that Orochimaru is simply more important on the overall - just at the moment.
So Itachi will not appear, neither will Rock Lee, Kabuto sems to be taking care of a bandaged Oro, and I'm just sure it all comes down to
Kiba vs. Sakon
Shikamaru vs. Tayuya
Naruto vs. Kimimaro
And I'm certain that the fights will go much like Neji's... he genins will end up very wounded except for Naruto, 'cause the Kyubi's healing him all the time and 'cause he's the main character.
...unless Kimimaro defeated him, and that'd be, to some degree, good for the plot.
im thinkin that the kiba and shikamaru fights are gonna go by pretty quick for two reasons.
1. Shika has never had to fight a long battle if he ends it he ends it in his first strategy, their is no turning of tides in battles with shikamaru.
2. Plot wise- right now the naruto fight is first concern too much change from that could diminish the badassedness of the fight that naruto is about to have.
jus to remind ppl of a point i memba reading earlier in the chuunin exam hows it bad coz if naruto was a leader that he would get the whole squad killed but right now it looks like most r gonna die n the mission is on a fine thread so doesnt that mean wat they feared will happen with naruto is happening with shika, which is the only reason y naruto aint chuunin http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/tongue.gif
Lol sorry if i sounded like an itachi fanboy. http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/laugh.gif
I guess you could say im an akatsuki fanboy. http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/blink.gif
I just want to see the rest of the members of the akatsuki. I bet they are all about as strong as Oro so........
Also I wasn't thinking that this would happen in the next 1 or 2 chapter. The next chapter may just be a flashback of kimimaro. So it will probably take 2 or 3 or more chapters before the fight is finished. That plenty of time for Kishimoto to put a hint of someone else coming.
Good chapter, it went kinda fast but meh
I dont think we'll ever see Kiba fight maybe shika in between Naruto's but the next chapter will start Naruto vs Kimimaro. We could see a flash back of there fights when they are in the hospital telling the story or something...
Any way the next fight is going to be good. If you look at the last 2 frames of the chapter it appears Naruto has already slightly gone berserk ... just look at his eyes and the bigger whiskers / lines on his face... good stuff
Haha, I called Shikamaru fighting the girl a long time ago.
It was foreshadowed so much in recent chapters.
So Kimimaro belongs to an awesome ninja clan huh, go figure.
I guess if he was there during the Sound/Sand invasion it would have been a different story, but I guess he was too sick.
I am thinking that this might be kind of like the Kenshin vs Shishio fight in Rurouni Kenshin.
Both have a good chance of beating the other, but one of them is too ill and just dies on the spot of wounds not caused by the fighting.
I don't think Kimimaro will make it through this fight alive either way.
Naruto cannot win for this plot line to continue, otherwise this whole arc was just a time waster
He's gonna win, he's the main character. Get used to it.
He's gonna beat the shit out of Kimimaro, then Sasuke is going to pop out of the barrel and then they are going to fight.
Then Sasuke will have to make a choice, but I think he will go back to Konoha, since Naruto should be able to convince him.
Also this hasn't been a waste, Chouji and Neji have possibly died. Same with Genma and Raidou. I don't think any of the 4 are actually dead, but still, it has progressed the plot.
As for advancing the plot, you don't seem to get it..
This series is about friendship, the plot centers around that. Its not good vs evil necessarily.
Yes, just slap a fanboy/fangirl label and automatically dismiss everything one said. If Itachi show up it's not stupid, since Kyuubi(Naruto) obviously is central or at least have some weight of their goal. It wouldn't be TOO illogically to have some Akatsuki keeping an watchful eye on Naruto and taking advantage of this situation. Naruto is alone, on unfriendly terrain with no backup whatsoever. Is it THAT unlikely for akatsuki take this chance in order to achieve their goal?

geez i thought he was the main character and would win! lol
main characters DO have you to lose sometimes to keep the plot interesting, all narutos been doing lately is winning.
They have been quiet for awhile. http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/ph34r.gif
Also it doesn't necessarily have to be itachi. It could be any of them.
Something i never said but, at the beginning of the chapter when kimimaro kicked the coffin i thought it was gonna destroy it. http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/huh.gif
He COULD show up, but its not very likely.
I think Itachi is a cool character, but he falls into the "ultra super strong" character type. This character type appears in most manga, they are the type that are so strong, that they can't do a whole lot with them until the main characters get more towards that level. Seijuro Hiko in Rurouni Kenshin is a good example of this, but there are more such as Tawara Bunischi in Tenjo Tenge.
This is hypothetical, I don't think it will happen, but here is the scenario I thought up. Less than 1% chance of it happening. Sorry, but I just don't really see Itachi showing up.
I was thinking that Itachi would show up to save Sasuke from Orochimaru. Itachi spared Sasuke for a reason, it sure as hell wasn't to give him over to some pedophile. Plus while he was there he could kill two birds with one stone and capture Naruto.

Don't be an idiot. Orochimaru is one of 3 Sannin, Naruto was doomed to lose that fight. That wasn't really one on one either, Sasuke was kind of helping him and they both got owned.
In a one on one fight its tough for the main character to lose to someone so close to his level.
The Kabuto versus Naruto fight was a good one because Naruto pulled the Rasengan out of his ass and got in a good hit on Kabuto. I call that fight a draw, but others say Naruto lost it, fine by me.
Just don't count on Naruto losing to Kimimaro.
Thanks for the heads up Naruto_-_Kun.
i still think kimimaro is going to beat naruto.. possibly die in the process of beating him but beat naruto none the less
Yeah, but that would be pretty cheap I think. They sort of did that at the end of an arc of Rurouni Kenshin. Was kind of weird and it is still debated to this day who won that fight. It has been 10 years nearly since that happened.
IF Naruto does lose, I would want Kimimaro to still be alive. If he died it would be kind of cheap, plus once he died Naruto would be there for the picking for anyone who wanted him ie Itachi, Sakon, Orochimaru, Kabuto, etc..
I am not sure what level Kimimaro is on, whether or not he is stronger than Kabuto is what remains to be seen.
Naruto had a real tough time with Kabuto since he was on or above Kakashi's level. If Kimimaro is the same then I have to give in and say Naruto is going to have one hell of a time beating Kimimaro.
we know that Kimimaro was the perfect body for Orochimaru, more so then Sasuke until he got sick.
also they said they would have been able to defeat the 3rd with no problems if Kimimaro was there, so obviously hes strong.
btw Kabuto was able to recover by himself in that fight at the end, Naruto needed Tsunades help just to live. thats a win to Kabuto

Yeah, and you have to figure Kabuto's nervous system was all messed up too since he just fought Tsunade before that.
I think that Jiraiya was wrong when he said Kabuto was on Kakashi's level though. He appears to be slightly better than Kakashi from what I have seen, but we really haven't seen Kakashi do his best other than with Zabuza and Itachi.
He fought well with Itachi, exchanging Jutsu's with him, but then Manga Sharingan put him down fast...
I am wondering if Kabuto is more toward the Sannin level now.
it would be interesting if naruto loses to kimimaro...and it might happen cuz Kishimoto is a unique way of writing his stories. I think it would be more interesting if Naruto loses, because than that means Sasuke will definetly be part of the sound, and the story can advance to better climaxes through that.
If I Were To Guess. I'd Say Kimimaro Will Beat The Crap Out Of Naruto. But In The End Naruto Will Be The Victor.
And I Think The 4th Hokage, Naruto, Kimimaro And The Guy Orochimaru Took As His Vessel Have A Link Somewhere. Not Quite Sure, But Something Tells Me They Are Connected Somehow (clan wise).
I have short-term memory loss... who is Oro's new body? Because I thought Garra was sitting in the chair at first glance...
I think Kimimaro will beat Naruto, but they will both be hurt badly and just as Kimimaro is about to finish off Naruto the little fox-boy will give some silly speech about love and living to protect your friends... blah, blah, blah... and Kimi will loose his burning will to live in the name of evil and will let himself go to the otherworld (but only after thanking Naruto for helping him to see the light).
Orochimaru's new body is the guy who won the battle royale a few chapters back
Don't feel bad a few people thought it was Gaara for some weird reason, so you are not alone. I thought his eye would give it away who he was though...
GAH! Where's a time machine when you need one?
Need chapter 202.....now!
Anyways, was Kimarrio's clan wiped out with the same sickness he had too?
I Don't Think It Was Mentioned. But We Might Find Out Soon Enough. http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/wink.gif
Meaning Next Chapter. Sasuke Better Awake Soon, Can't Wait To See What He Looks Like In Cursed Seal Level 2.
oh man oh man oh man!!! another great fight ahead. it just keeps coming!!! first it was naruto vs. neji. then naruto vs gaara!! NOW naruto vs kimimaro!! GREAT! haha i love seeing naruto fight.. esp. wen he uses kyubis chakra. dunno why! http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/ph34r.gif

::Shrug:: Sorry if the "fanboy" remark bothered/offended you, but I stand by what I said. This is my reasoning regarding Itachi, the Akatsuki and the manga's future...
I don't think Itachi is going to appear out of nowhere at the middle of a story-arc that so far has nothing to do with Akatsuki. Think of it like this - when Itachi and Akatsuki appeared for the first time, it was after the Chuunin Exam/Sand and Sound Invasion story-arc.
Afterwards, we had the "Find Tsunade" story arc and then, thanks to Itachi's appareance, we now have the "Sasuke goes evil story-arc", from when Sasuke and Naruto fight to Kimimaro's appareance.
But so far, this story-arc (and its been what, 30 chapters long?) has revolved only about Orochimaru.
In other words, what I'm saying is that Orochimaru, while weaker than Itachi and (possibly) some other members from the Akastuki, is a much more present threat. The manga has to deal with Orochimaru before dealing with Aakatsuki, simply because Oro's ex-boss is there (we don't know who rules the Akatsuki, but he/she/it must be very strong to rule over Itachi).
So perhaps we'll have Oro for just one more story-arc. It's not that farfetched, if you think of it:
Introduction/Establishment: Chuunin Exam arc. (First appareance, kills the 3rd, gives Sasuke the seal)
Set-back: Tsunade arc. (has sealed arms, Tsunade refuses to heal him)
Recovering: Evil Sasuke arc. (gets new body, possibly new apprentice)
Death?: Following arc? Two more arcs?
Needless to say, this is just a vague idea, but I'm still pretty sure that they'll deal with Orochimaru before dealing with Akatsuki... and unless the manga is going to be 500+ chapters (yay!!), it should happen sometime soon...
man naruto really going all out from the start this time. i guess naruto has two kyubi modes seeing how he transformed this time but didnt when he fought gaara and neji.
so kimi has a advance bloodline and an earth seal vs a transformed kyubi-naruto. no matter how i look at it naruto getting an ass whooping, because theres no trump card this time he going all out from the start. the only thing naruto has got to his advantage is how long can kimi fight, and is pist off.
Hey i know its been mentioned thousands of times but as well all know kishimoto is a fan of dbz. there are many parralells from dbz throughout the story, so i bhelive possibly, that since sasuke is a sorta vegeta character he could be doing wat similarly vegeta did with babidi let himself get taken over by orochimaru and then overpower orochi'[s seal and jus use it as a way of gaining power. http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/laugh.gif but then again i could be wrong http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/mf_gap.gif
thans for the heads up
Kimimaro's going to kick Kyuubi Naruto's ass down to Chinatown. (Meet the parents)
If Naruto fought using his own power from the start, and maybe figure out Kimimaro's jutsu secrets, then use Kyuubi chakra, things might be better for him, but since he's using the Kyuubi chakra from the get-go, it's pretty obvious that he's not going to win.
If, by chance, he does win though, it'd be a really big waste of a cool character that just got introduced.

thats if though, Naruto usually gets those little frogs first off too, i'm not sure that Gamabunta will fight Sasuke considering Sasuke is so small compared.
Gamabunta usually comes out when theres a huge demon about </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'>
I'm talking about a hypothetical battle though. I don't think Naruto would ever get the little frogs again because he's learnt properly how to control his kyuubi chakra at will.
Let's say Gammabunta will fight for Naruto no matter who or what he's fighting. In that case, I think it would be difficult for anyone to compete against him unless they could summon something of a similar size and strength. There's not much a single 6 ft person can do against a giant super strong toad no matter who they are.
Don't worry, I'm only thinking aloud really..... just trying to imagine the battle... not that it would ever happen of course, Gammabunta would never fight in the story..... I'm just thinking hypothetically.... http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/smile.gif </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'>
I'm thinking Kimimaro can handle even Gamabunta. When that fat Sound ninja (he sucked so much that I forgot his name) fought against the supersized Chouji, he somehow made him change back. Now, obviously,Kimimaro is way above the fat ninja's level. But then, Gama Bunta is considerably more powerful than large Chouji... so, the question really is, who's level of power is higher than the comparision..
Fat sound ninja VS Kimimaro
Large Chouji VS Gamabunta..
I'm thinking Kimi.
Nevermind about the first part.
Anyways I wish Kimimaro would have a more important role too but in the end we all know he is gonna die.

Naruto lost in the forest of death, as did Sasuke for two reasons. 1) It was to establish how bad-ass Orochimaru was, he took out Kyube Naruto with very little effort, and then took out Sasuke (Who we know, working together, were able to exhaust and take out someone said to be far beyond Jounin level). 2) It was to introduce the main bad guy and antagonist for the next while.
Now, Kimimaro works for Orochimaru, so he won't win to show he's the next big baddy. Also, it's been told to us several times that Kimimaro is an incredibly bad-ass ninja, as he was only bypassed as a body for Oro because 1) no sharingan and 2) sick, we know he must be incredibly uber.
So now what we have is this. 1) Barring this fight ending with Naruto dying and calling out to Sasuke for help (doubt that'll happen) or more likely, Naruto losing and getting up saying he promised Sakura-chan he'd bring Sasuke-kun back which causes Sasuke to remember whats truly important and wake up (Again, I doubt that, as it would make this whole arc fairly pointless) there is no reason for Naruto to lose to Kimimaro.
My call is that Naruto beats Kimimaro, maybe barely, he is an uber ninja after all. Then, after he beats Kimimaro, Sasuke comes out of the barrel and tells Naruto to piss off before he vanishes to go and do his thing alone.

Heh, I'd say Sasuke would help naruto just because it would be a way for him to gloat that he saved Naruto and just go "See, I AM better than you".
If Sasuke saves Naruto, I'm sure on SOME level it'd be out of friendship, but primarily, or conciously, it'll be to show that he is still the Elite Ninja and Naruto is still the loser.
The reason Naruto went into Kyuubi form is because he is in a state of heightened emotion, most likely because he cares greatly for Sasuke.
Look at every time that Naruto has gone berserk.
-Sasuke presumed to be dead while fighting Haku.
-Sasuke being attacked by Orochimaru's giant snake.
-Sasuke being taken to Orochimaru.
The Kyuubi mode is to show that to Naruto, this has become a VERY important situation. Even moreso now that he's on his own without Shikamaru to lead or Kiba to back him up.
On a slightly different note, is anyone here dying to see a Red Chakra Rasengan?

Nah, Hiko is much stronger than Kenshin throughout the entire series. When Kenshin used the Succession technique on Hiko, it worked because Hiko only used the Kuzu Ryu Sen. When they both used the Kuzu Ryu Sen, Hiko's was stronger. He explained to Kenshin that it was because of body strength, weight, and speed, which Hiko was way above Kenshin in all those areas. The only way to counter his Kuzu was the succession technique which is nothing more than a Battou-jutsu sword drawing strike, leading with the left leg. Hiko was even able to beat the giant, Anji, rather easily. Something Kenshin would not be able to do.
Trust me I have read all the manga volumes, and at the end Kenshins body starts to suffer from using HMR, because he doesn't have the muscles and abilities that Hiko has.
Face it Hiko ownz Kenshin, and everyone else in the manga. I dont count that damn Shimabara Arc in the anime, because it doesn't take place in the manga. The manga has the Revenge Arc with Enishi, which is 10X better.
Back to Naruto -
If Naruto summons Gamabunta, it would be pretty cheap. If he summoned one of the medium support frogs, like Jiraiya did in the hallway against Itachi, I wouldn't have a problem with that. But..Naruto has no control over his chakra, it is either a miss or a huge hit. If he summoned a medium one, then perhaps that could act as a support unit for him and a few Shadow Clones. Now that he is in his Kyubi mode he should have a lot of chakra to spare, plus he will most likely heal faster.
We haven't seen him like this since the Forest of Death, and there Orochimaru had to put the seal on him. Naruto just goes nuts when he's like this so there is no telling what can happen.
Kimimaro is a bad ass uberninja who is sick, but for all we know Naruto has similar lineage(Yondaime, Jiraiya, etc), and he has a demon inside of him. I have to say photo finish.
im thinking sasuke will defiantly interupt the fight.
kimimaro will nail naruto and then sasuke will come out and stop kimimaro form kiilling him. naruto will try and convince sasuke not to go.
i believe sasuke will go to orichimaro because kabuto said ori cant take over sasuke's body for another few years because he had taken over that gaara/naruto-looking guy.
i reckon this was done for the story, so it gives naruto and the gang a few years to try and get sasuke back to the leaf.
just my thoughts

almost to the of drulling for it. or even the shadow clones with kyubi charka which he hasnt did yet. i wonder would a kyubi-naruto shadow clone vanish with a strong hit like his normal clones do. with all this points being made i can see naruto not fighting kimi at all just leting his clones wear him down for the kill.
off topic i still believe kyubi has some influcence over naruto because ever since kyubi charka emered naruto been craving a good fight one after another.
my current inclination now that oro has a new body lends me to believe that indeed sasuke will go to oro, because since oro cant change bodies for a few years you can have some arcs where he is a sound ninja and his partner in crime will be kimimaro. Obviously theyve hyped up his character to keep him around for awhile, so while naruto will probably either win or take the advantage in this fight, i think both kimi and sasuke will survive. Then we will be able to see the reprecussions of them failing a mission, and naruto losing his best friend, and the needless sacrifices made, namely choujis probable death(BECAUSE NEJI IS ALIVE DAMMIT!!!) thatll change the dynamic of the story pretty well cause it would set up a similar situation to jiraiya and oro.
hmm is it just me or does it seem that there is a unsaid rule in the manga that no one can actually watch when Naruto fights and owns.
because of that it kinda gives me the impression it'll be somthing like garra fight as far as the magnitude of it taht is coming up
Yeah if Neji did indeed die, they would zoom into his forhead and show the Swatstika Type Curse Seal on his forehead disappearing.
I don't think Chouji is dead either. I think he took what little bit of Chakra he had left and Henged into a butterfly or something like that.
i think the kyuubi naruto vs. kimimaro fight is going to be good, and probably end like the naruto vs. gaara fight does; with Naruto being completely wasted, and probbaly kimimaro about the same then dying. then sasuke might leave on his own or be takin by something else; but who knows he he. and naruto is due in for a loss soon, but i dont think hes going to get completely owned by kimimaro--- http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/cool.gif
Yeah its not like Naruto is a weakling. Kabuto wondered whether Sasuke or Kimimaro was the stronger among the two. Naruto would have beaten Sasuke if Kakashi hadn't jumped in. So if Kimimaro is more towards Sasuke's level, then I don't see the big deal here about this fight. Although I am sure Kimimaro is stronger than Sasuke, since they wouldn't go to all of this trouble to have Naruto beat the crap out of someone pretty quick, like what would have happened with Sasuke.
this is what I think 1.) Naruto wins and defeats his apponent... Sasuke gets out and defeats Naruto who is already tired from his fight with the other guy. Sasuke makes his decision... whatever it may be
or
2.) Naruto is about to die... Sasuke saves Naruto and comes back to Konaha (I'd really like that to happen.) http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/ph34r.gif
we know for a fact that Sasuske HATES it when Naruto saves him, every time he does he just grows deeper and deeper anxiety to what hes going to do to beat Itachi
if Naruto saves Sasuke then Sasuke will try to kill Naruto, no matter what - remember that fight just before Sasuke was approached by Kakashi
dubbed the 'chidori vs rasengen'
if Sasuke acknowledges Naruto then hes lost his reason to live because Sasuke cannot acknowledge that Narutos become stronger, because that acknowledges that Sasuke is weak... and to him he lives only to beat Itachi - that'd be a massive blow to him
I think Kimimaro's gonna die. Sure, he's a cool character who just got introduced, but remember Haku?
Haku - Real pretty boy.
Kimimaro - Real pretty too.
Haku - Advanced bloodline.
Kimimaro - Advanced bloodline too.
Haku - Was able to defeat anyone he wanted.
Kimimaro - So far, it seems he can defeat most people as well.
And now its Kimimaro vs. Kyubi Naruto.
My bet is he's gonna die, but not before largely damaging Naruto too.
'Sides, I insist.... Naruto's gone Kyubi now, but not berseker. Not yet...
like I said... I'd perfer my second choice...

is that why he beat Orochimaru in the forest of death and stopped him from putting the seal on Sasuke, oh wait... he didnt
geez i thought he was the main character and would win! lol
main characters DO have you to lose sometimes to keep the plot interesting, all narutos been doing lately is winning. </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'>
Naruto lost in the forest of death, as did Sasuke for two reasons. 1) It was to establish how bad-ass Orochimaru was, he took out Kyube Naruto with very little effort, and then took out Sasuke (Who we know, working together, were able to exhaust and take out someone said to be far beyond Jounin level). 2) It was to introduce the main bad guy and antagonist for the next while.
Now, Kimimaro works for Orochimaru, so he won't win to show he's the next big baddy. Also, it's been told to us several times that Kimimaro is an incredibly bad-ass ninja, as he was only bypassed as a body for Oro because 1) no sharingan and 2) sick, we know he must be incredibly uber.
So now what we have is this. 1) Barring this fight ending with Naruto dying and calling out to Sasuke for help (doubt that'll happen) or more likely, Naruto losing and getting up saying he promised Sakura-chan he'd bring Sasuke-kun back which causes Sasuke to remember whats truly important and wake up (Again, I doubt that, as it would make this whole arc fairly pointless) there is no reason for Naruto to lose to Kimimaro.
My call is that Naruto beats Kimimaro, maybe barely, he is an uber ninja after all. Then, after he beats Kimimaro, Sasuke comes out of the barrel and tells Naruto to piss off before he vanishes to go and do his thing alone. </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'>
Remember that naruto also had that five element seal that restricted his chakra stream. He probably could have done a better match right now, because of rasengan and gamabunta.
Edit:
</div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td>QUOTE </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'> think Itachi is a cool character, but he falls into the "ultra super strong" character type. This character type appears in most manga, they are the type that are so strong, that they can't do a whole lot with them until the main characters get more towards that level. Seijuro Hiko in Rurouni Kenshin is a good example of this, but there are more such as Tawara Bunischi in Tenjo Tenge</td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'>
Seijuro Hiko isn't as strong as kenshin when kenshin have learned amakkaru ryou sen or what it's called, the ultimate attack within the hiten mitsugiri style
I think naruto uses kyubi chakra at first. Kimimaro will still beat him.
Then Sasuke will get up and call naruto a loser.
After that naruto will go kyubi crazy (haku fight) and kill kimimaro.
Naruto will be so shocked that he killed someone for the first time and how evil he is in kyubi mode that he cant get sasuke back to leaf and sasuke will go to the sound, saying something I'm sorry naruto but I need to get stronger one way or another to kill Itachi. It doesnt matter to me if its not right my only goal in life is to kill Itachi and in the end we will fight someday to see who is stronger.
Naruto will return in shock to konoha, because he killed someone and that kyubi can make him really crazy.
So they go through all of this for Sasuke to say no, GTFOH!!
all i have to say is that if naruto can stand up to kabuto as he did before i think he will do just fine against one of kabutos students.
kimimaro will beat naruto and break kyubi's seal. i have connections.
Have we forgotten about Kimimaro's seal here?? Kyubi Naruto probably stands no chance of winning unless the kyubi lends Naruto enough chakra to kill a senin. That seems to be about how strong Kimi is. Naruto will lose.
Awesome chapter, I have to say I really like Kimimaro's look, what do people think of it? Not really what I was expecting, but then again I had no idea what to expect anyway. It's good.
I really think it's inevitable that Sasuke will get involved in this battle somehow, whether it's at the end or during. Probably just in time to stop one killing the other, but I'm not yet going to say who I think will win. We'll just have to wait n see. I wonder how many chapters it'll last.
Also, in regards to Sasuke vs. Naruto, how do you think Sasuke would counter if Naruto was to summon Gammabunta?

Gamabunta usually comes out when theres a huge demon about

I'm talking about a hypothetical battle though. I don't think Naruto would ever get the little frogs again because he's learnt properly how to control his kyuubi chakra at will.
Let's say Gammabunta will fight for Naruto no matter who or what he's fighting. In that case, I think it would be difficult for anyone to compete against him unless they could summon something of a similar size and strength. There's not much a single 6 ft person can do against a giant super strong toad no matter who they are.
Don't worry, I'm only thinking aloud really..... just trying to imagine the battle... not that it would ever happen of course, Gammabunta would never fight in the story..... I'm just thinking hypothetically.... http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/smile.gif

Nah, Hiko is much stronger than Kenshin throughout the entire series. When Kenshin used the Succession technique on Hiko, it worked because Hiko only used the Kuzu Ryu Sen. When they both used the Kuzu Ryu Sen, Hiko's was stronger. He explained to Kenshin that it was because of body strength, weight, and speed, which Hiko was way above Kenshin in all those areas. The only way to counter his Kuzu was the succession technique which is nothing more than a Battou-jutsu sword drawing strike, leading with the left leg. Hiko was even able to beat the giant, Anji, rather easily. Something Kenshin would not be able to do.
Trust me I have read all the manga volumes, and at the end Kenshins body starts to suffer from using HMR, because he doesn't have the muscles and abilities that Hiko has.
Face it Hiko ownz Kenshin, and everyone else in the manga. I dont count that damn Shimabara Arc in the anime, because it doesn't take place in the manga. The manga has the Revenge Arc with Enishi, which is 10X better.
Back to Naruto -
If Naruto summons Gamabunta, it would be pretty cheap. If he summoned one of the medium support frogs, like Jiraiya did in the hallway against Itachi, I wouldn't have a problem with that. But..Naruto has no control over his chakra, it is either a miss or a huge hit. If he summoned a medium one, then perhaps that could act as a support unit for him and a few Shadow Clones. Now that he is in his Kyubi mode he should have a lot of chakra to spare, plus he will most likely heal faster.
We haven't seen him like this since the Forest of Death, and there Orochimaru had to put the seal on him. Naruto just goes nuts when he's like this so there is no telling what can happen.
Kimimaro is a bad ass uberninja who is sick, but for all we know Naruto has similar lineage(Yondaime, Jiraiya, etc), and he has a demon inside of him. I have to say photo finish. </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'>
I loved Hiko its a shame that they didnt show him more in the anime.
Please tell me that he is more in the manga because i haven read the manga so i dont know.
But It Would Be Funny Though. Naruto And Gamabunta Vs. Sasuke.
I'd Love To See That Match. Would Be Quite Interesting.
Also Like To Add, Kimimaro Looks Like A Woman.
There are many ninjas that are shemales. It looks gay.

I like it, I think it looks stylish. All anime/manga does it for various characters, it's good.
I can't remember him showing up at all after the Kyoto Arc in the manga.
Even when something happens to Kenshin he doesn't come to snap him out of it.
He was just too strong of a character, they couldn't use him cause he could just show up and beat the crap out of the current bad guy with ease.
As for Kimimaro being on the Sannin level....I think you might be giving him too much credit there, but we will see.

because thats what hes wearing in your sig
i doubt hes sennin level----if he is then not only do the gennins stand a chance, but who the hell i konoha save for jiraiya would? he may have had the potential, but hes not sennin level; thats waaaaaaaay too much credit. Even kyuubi naruto isnt that; summoning Gama Bunta is one thing, but thats not the complete package of being on taht level.

They could have used for comedy because he was alot of fun he callad Kenshin alot of bad names. Hiko was cool and funny,i loved it that he didn't care about anything. The guy was strongest samuraj and he just sat home drinking sake all day long.
Kenshin is really ungreatfull because after Hiko made him the greatest Samuraj he couldn't even take over him when Hiko asked.
Ok back to Naruto
I dont think either that Kimimaro is in sannin level also just like i said he shouldnt have called Naruto trash couse he is in kyubi mode now and is very angry.
Plus you cant allmost defeat Naruto, he is to stubborn to give upp and Kyubi heals him very fast.
Naruto looked angry in the last page so i want to see him and kimi fight and if Sasuke has to wake up i hope he wakes up after the fight.
Somebody said something about Kage Bunshin,i dont think its gonna work against a ninja like Kimimaro http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/wink.gif
I think Naruto is gonna win or its gonna be a draw because if you call Naruto a loser or trash like kimimaro called him,you chanses of winning arent great.

When Naruto get as strong as he can with Kyubi chakra then is he on sannins level cause Jiraya siad that he is the only one with the chakra to become the next Hogake to Tsunade when they met her.
chakra alone doesnt make on a sannin level or even jounin level. naruto has more chakra than any jounin in all of konoha but does that make him a jounin?
Theres more to being a S class ninja than just power, same with being a chuunin. Maybe after Naruto masters his chakra and kyubi's chakra then he could be. But thats leap years away from where we are now....

Yeah but with Jiraya as his sensei it wouldnt be very hard to get so good that he would eventually be hogake http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/wink.gif
Well there is more to being the strongest ninja than just raw power and strength.
There are a lot of other traits needed to be strong - wisdom, courage, etc..
Oh and I hate to say it, but when Naruto unleashes his Kyubi chakra and brings out Gambabunta, he is kind of doing what only a super powerful Shinobi could do. Only the 4th and Jiraiya could summon Gamabunta after all.
It is a gray area though, and is hardly worth mentioning. Naruto can't be as strong as Orochimaru yet or he would just kick his ass when they meet next time.
Kimimaro is a man
Sakon is a man (two headed guy)
Tayuya is the chick (with the helmet)

Hopefully he will get wisdom when he grow older you cant expect him to have wisdom at his age. But he have everything else.
Okey except chapter 201, he was smart in fight like Gaara and Kabuto.
i think kimimaro looks like Mu from Saint Seya, with the two dots on his forehead, btw wut do they mean?
Yeah, Naruto is getting stronger and stronger. Hopefully this Kimmaro fight will show us his true strength now.
The quote is messed up. Your first sentence is in my quote box.
I think the 3 traits that all warriors have fall into the broad categories of the Tri-Force. I am talking ALL warriors here.
Power, Wisdom, and Courage.
Naruto has power and courage.
He lacks wisdom, but you are right he will gain that when he is older.
All of the good guys in Naruto have courage, but three people with great wisdom that I can see are Shino, Shikamaru, and Sakura.
To be a Hokage you need to have all three of these traits.
Naruto uses a similar system called Heaven and Earth. Heaven is Wisdom and Earth is Power. I guess they don't include courage since all shinobi have it anyway.
It would so great if he used rasengan with Kyubi chakra cause it would damege that dude alot . kage bunshin,shadow rep i would like se them in kyubi mode they should be very strong.

How can i qoute two post and answer them in one post?
i'm leaning towards them being symbols of his clan or results of the disease
Kimimaro has learnt all of his ancient clans jutsus are according to Kabuto if Kimimaro wasnt sick when they attacked the 3rd the plan would have gone perfectly, which means hes obviously REALLY strong but his body isnt at the moment
lets just wait and see; naruto aint there yet but hes growing and he will be a terror when he *is* that level http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/cool.gif
Kabuto thinks that it would have gone off perfect, but Kimimaru called Kabuto his sensei... so I don't think he could stand up to the likes of Kakashi and Gai. However it is possible that he could have some neigh invulnerable body of diamond or something... Kabuto said his clan had the strongest body... that makes me wonder.... would he be weak against a Hyuga? http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/ph34r.gif
