Naruto Chapter 371

[KCMmmmm]

I don't want to see Pein use each fallen Akatsuki body. The evidence is definitely pointing in that direction, but I don't want to see the fight drag on that much. Also, I'd rather Pein fought with his own abilities, rather than somebody else's.

Here's a thought: if the body we've been seeing him using, up until now, wasn't his original, then Pein might turn out to be anybody. His true body might turn out to be some old character brought back! Though, I can' think of anybody else with an affinity for piercings.

im more excited to see the Itachi/Sasuke confrontation! i've been waiting to see it years ago

[Assertn]

Nope. That is definitely not Deidara's body. Eyes are narrower and hairstyle is not the same.

You guys speculate too much on the dumb shit.

How about instead, speculate on whether or not Pein was actually the fat kid in the jiraiya-student flashbacks...and if so, why would he be a missing rain-nin?

[Mkadoza]

They are some new spoiler pics, and the two things that I'm eager to see, besides the obvious Pein and Jiraiya/Konan info, is that Narutop and Sasuke meet up and Tobi's monologue. The series is coming to a fever pitch and I cant wait to see what happens.

Chinese Chapter out in tokyotosho... but since I can't use torrents at the office... bleh...
And mangahelpers usually ignore the chinese chapters and wait for the real raws...

Go naruto!! interfere w/sasuke and itachi's fight then finish em' both w/shin oodama RASENGAN!!!!! lol. Anyways this chapter should be AWESOME!!!!! cant wait for the uchiha madara explination. I'm dying to see if the tengu theory is right at this point. That would be cool. Also i want that explination to be really sound because his name was dropped randomly in talks w/the kyubi. Now he is the source of all evil right now. Anyways........where's kabuchimaru? where's the suigetsu, juggo, karin, kiba, hinata, and shino development?? i mean WTF!!!!

end rant......

Wow... Just wow.. Kabuchimaru is by far the best fusion name.

And yeah, I want to see all those other characters development too... But then it's getting too interesting right now so screw them!

Ha...interesting....but I'm still reserving judgement on the Pein / fat kid connection until more info comes. Now if you had emphasized the girl in the team....then I'd have to give you mad props.

OMG YOU ARE SO COOL! been waiting all day for this shit...

Wow... So Jiraiya is Pain's sensei eh? I guess Pain must be that boy and Konan is that girl? How did Pain and Konan end up turning evil and Minato(was that the 4th's name?) became the 4th? Pain must have went evil and Konan followed him cuz she loved him?

Naruto(the character, not the show) is 1337 now. He has his own Sharingan/Byakugan.

And it does indeed look like Pain is using Deidara's body. Pain must be like Bruce Lee and takes the form of water! He morphs inside other people's body and can use their bloodlines.

I'm really starting to believe Tsunade will pop in and take on Konan while Jiraiya finds Pain.

[conquistaDan]

Wow

Nice find RyougaZell. Props on that one

What the hell are you talking about?

Anyway, was Jiraiya hiding in the shadow of the clone of his captive? If it was an ordinary transformation, he would have been captured by the paper-jutsu, right? Weird, but finally, we will see JIraiya at full power. I can't wait! Damn good chapter!

Also....Sasuke using Chidori on the Naruto clone was stupid. Karin had already told him that there were a bunch of people with the same chakra....and upon seeing Naruto, he should have realized it was a clone. Why waste so much chakra on a clone (which would have been destroyed with any normal attack), when he is racing to battle Itachi - an elite ninja? You're a dolt, Sasuke!

Edit: Oh yeah, thanks RyougaZell. You rock, man.

Pein used "Jiraiya sensei" directly so unless Kishi forgot about the 2 kids next to 4th in that flash back pic... its safe to say that fat kid = Pein.

Also 2 years ago I didnt just randomly pick a kid and say he is in akatsuki, i gave my reasons~~~

Its going to be interesting to know what turned konan and pein evil (if they are in fact jirayai's students). and they should devolope the other characters more, its almost like they completely just like forgot about them for the last couple chapters. and the whole thing with tobi/madara? its going to be interesting to see how that goes

[Idealistic]

What the hell are you talking about?

I'm just saying, his clones are sort of like his own eye bloodline, but it's just with clones. With his clones he's able to tell how his enemy's fighting patterns are like so he can easily counter. I related that part to the Sharingan. Naruto can detect where people are with his clones so it's like the Byakugan as well to be able to see into the distant minus the chakra stuff.

Assuming that the Tengu theory stuff is correct, there must be a reason why Kishi made Tobi/Madara with only 1 eye showing. The left eye must have Byakugan. =O

[dsh1202]

how awsome would it be if tobi had a sharigan and a byakugan, thats like the perfect blood line limit

[Yukimura]

Okay if Pein and Konan turn out to be the other two members of Jiraiya and the Fourths three man team it would makes Jiraiays team a little bit too much like Team 7 for my tastes. You'd have the golden haired kid, the other guy, and then the girl who likes the other guy. Then the other guy would have turned on the village for some reason, likely to the dismay of the the golden haired kid. The only difference in this case would be that the girls obsession with the other guy was strong enough to make her follow him instead of trying to stop him. I hope he fleshes them out more and makes their circumstances more unique.

You know this is Naruto right...? The Jiraiya, Orochimaru, Tsunade follows that. As well as the Kakashi, Obito and Rin was it? And if this one is true it'll be Minato, Pein, and Kanon. It's just another pebble in the cesspool of Naruto shounen cliches. Sandaime's group of 3 probably was like that too.

Anyways, if Pein indeed was his student isn't a bit odd that Jiraiya doesn't recognize the name but recognizes Kanon's just from seeing her face? Maybe he got a name change? Or maybe Pein just uses the sensei honorific because he was a student in another group not being trained by Jiraiya? Though, it's not very likely. We'll have to wait and see for more details I guess. Hopefully we'll get to see an amazing fight from Jiraiya with his uniquity and odd arsenal of jutsus.
