    The 4th's wife was a drug-attic and alcoholic. He knew before hand his son would be a complete idiot when he was born so therefore he sealed the 9-tails inside of Naruto so he can have some sort of power to make up for his disability.

    I like how people are predicting how Yahiko/Juugo could have fallen into Oro's hands when we've already been told Juugo's backstory.

    wow a new eye thats supposed to be the strongest of the three (as read by scanlation). Yanno I wouldn't be suprised if we saw the strongest user of the byakugan in akatsuki now. I mean they have "Madara" and now this dude. The three evil eyes of akatsuki hehe.

    I still don't get why tobi is the leader though, maybe he has more control with his eye and at current could beat Pein in a battle.

    Exclamation rawwwwwwwwr

    This was an awesome chapter. Really gives depth to the plot that Jiraiya is responsible for akatsukis strongest members' training.

    Is it really? When was this revealed?

    He's taking the piss, there is no Byakugan in Akatsuki according to the story so far.

    It seems to me that there are contradictory accounts being given by Jiraiya. First off, a couple of chapters back he said that there was only one ninja in history who would be able to pull off something like summoning and controlling Kyuubi, and that was Madara. No mention of Rin'negan users here. Now he says that Nagato has a hax of the sharingan and byakugan, and he can't be touched. Combine this with obviously Madara calling the shots, and you have a situation that needs reconcilling.

    The theory of Nagato not knowing how to use his eyes fully whilst Madara does is one explanation. Another could be is that perhaps the Rin'nengan has a weakness to a power of the Sharingan? Perhaps an ordinary Sharingan would be defeated easily, but maybe there is a doujutsu using the MS that can defeat this new bloodline.

    Another could be a Star Wars like explaination. Jiraiya (Obi-Wan) was Nagato's (Anakin's) master and now Nagato is being mentored by Madara (Palpatine) after having become evil. This would leave open the possibilty of some form of redemption for Nagato as well.

    But looking at this from a bigger perspective, Naruto and Sasuke are the stars of the show. Between those two, they must have an ability or be able to combine their abilities in such a way that they can take Nagato down. Of course there is still Itachi hanging around, who isn't a push over either. Also, the issue of Tobi/Madara needs to be cleared up.

    Good chapter, great stuff anticipated.

    Not a bad chapter. I liked the back story. I think that Jiraiya is going to tear up. I dont think that Konan is going to interfere on this either.

    assertnfailure (7:40:03 PM): dude....your posts are a bunch of nonsense

    Tsunade is on her way already. It's a given! C'mon! 2v1 and there happens to be a girl. Tsunade is going to take on Konan.

    And hmm... Speaking of Jiraiya's students.... I wonder if Anko had teammates who trained under Oro.

    It seems that Jiraiya caught Konan easily with his hair... Unless she made a shadow clone, or maybe turns into paper airplanes to escape the hair...she doesn't seem that tough?

    I hope Jiraiya kills at least one of them. It'd be refreshing for a change. Sometimes I get tired of the ace-up-the-sleeve.

    i think Yahiko died.. and Nagato(Pein) blame himself etc.. and he become superbad...

    ahh cant wait for the fight scene..

    Did you not read back a chapter or two where he uses a jutsu out of his mouth that engulfs her in a saliva like substance, where he says, it's impossible for you to turn into paper?

    I just noticed something that Jiraiya said as he was leaving.


    "Come see me again when you turn 18!"
    Is it just me, or does he say something hilariously perverted at a tragic sad moment?

    Did you honestly think Kishimoto was going to write a younger Jiraiya without perverted tendencies did you? He even wrote a kid Jiraiya with perverted tendencies

    I like this idea a lot actually. Everyone has noticed that Tobi, in the past, has displayed a tendency to be a bit obnoxious. Whether or not that was just a false personality, it seems to match up with Yahiko, who seems obnoxious to me as well. Also, it is quite possible that Pein and Tobi were speaking as equals, in which case neither was bossing the other around: they were just discussing strategies and tactics. We've never seen Tobi's face, and even though he hinted that he might be Madara, it hasn't yet been proven.

    Here's the last part of my idea: how did Tobi get the Sharingan, if he isn't an Uchiha? Maybe he simply recovered the body of a fallen Uchiha (do we know any?), and took the eye. Maybe he was jealous of Nagato's doujutsu, or maybe he needed it for another reason?

    I'm not saying it's likely, but isn't it at least possible?

    Oooooh, great chapter! I can't wait for the next one!

    How is the Rin'negan a hax of the Sharingan? The Rin'negan first appeared in the first ninja to ever exist. The Sharingan is a genetic descendent of the Byakugan, which happens to be owned by a clan of ninjas. If there's any genetic relationship between the three, then either the Byakugan genetics came about from a common ancestor to the Rin'negan genetics, or the Byakugan is a descendent.

    Second, we have no idea what kind of powers the Rin'negan grants Pein. For instance, it might be the reason he is able to transfer between bodies, in which case it is stronger than the Sharingan, in the long run. (The idea being that if Uchiha Madara and Pein fought, Pein might lose based on raw power; but Pein would survive forever, whereas Uchiha Madara presumably wouldn't)

    Third, we have no idea what the relationship between Uchiha Madara and Pein is. I'm starting to think that Uchiha Madara approached Pein with the Akatsuki plan, knowing that Pein's recent conquest of the Land of Rain would provide them a strong base of operation. Pein's goals presumably coincided with Uchiha Madara's. (In fact, I'm thinking that Uchiha Madara needs the first 8 bijuus to beat the Kyuubi. After the Kyuubi is under Madara's control, the first 8 will be used by Pein for his Akatsuki plan -- to bring war to the five main countries, show them pain, corner the market on ninjas, etc)

    That goes back to Orochimaru's point that Naruto has no talent something Jiraiya admitted to.

    Eh, not really. Jiraiya has always focused on teaching Naruto about chakra control, so that he could safely use the Kyuubi's chakra. This is why he pushed him off the cliff. This is why he taught him the Rasengan (despite it being a ridiculously difficult technique). Jiraiya once told Kakashi that his life has only been in danger twice: once against Naruto using Kyuubi chakra, and from what we've seen since, once against Hanzo, the most respected ninja of his day.
