We don't know for sure whether Naruto used a shadow clone or not, if it was anybody else I would've thought for sure that it was a clone but with Naruto you never know. Whether he used the shadow clone or not doesn't matter because what he did was unnecessary and ninjas aren't supposed to be making such hasty decisions.Originally Posted by AssertnFailure
I thought he had already dispelled the other clones when he found out where Sasuke was. My tactic would simply be to asses the situation and come up with a plan of attack and Naruto's clones would of course be a big part of that plan because they are difficult to deal with. My point is that what Naruto did was completely foolish because they already have a clear advantage even if Tobi is stronger than everyone of them individually it is very unlikely that he would be able to deal with them as a group especially considering the diversity of their abilities. I don't know how anyone would be able to deal with Naruto, Sakura, Shino's bugs, Kakashi's Sharingan, Hinata's Byakugan, Yamato's jutsu etc all by themselves.
Kurenai's team is specialized in tracking and since it was their mission to find either Sasuke or Itachi they won't be returning until it is completed. Naruto only rushed at Tobi because he is so emotional about Sasuke. Sasuke is not his biggest problem right now Tobi is and Naruto in his haste is overlooking him. They already know where Sasuke is and even if they lose him with their abilities he would be easy enough to find because he is not attempting to hide himself whatsoever.
Anyway Naruto in essence just showed the enemy his hand which really doesn't matter much since Tobi already knows his abilities. Oh and Naruto didn't do what he did because of any strategy. Don't fool yourselves into believing such nonsense, Naruto only did it because like he said every time he gets close to Sasuke something gets in his way, and if I'm sneaking up on an opponent from behind then shouting at him to get out of my way pretty much takes away the element of surprise now doesn't. Its not as if he just sneaked up on him and attacked like what Kakashi did to Kakuzu he yelled at him well before then and gave away his position so even if you allow yourself to believe that Naruto attacked Tobi because of some strategic decision making, then yelling at him would just be another example of how Naruto is an idiot.
This situation is not the first or only thing that is influencing my opinion of Naruto. Liking a character doesn't mean you have to stand up for every decision he makes. Naruto is too emotional so whether you are a ninja or not if you let your emotions control your decision making too much you will end up making some idiotic decisions. Naruto obviously doesn't have the ability to control his emotions and him being a ninja only makes it more evident, that is why I say Naruto is an idiot.
Thank you February.
They been around since before Konoha was founded, but you are right though they seem to haves tons of shit scattered all over the place, but that would make sense if they were an ancient clan whose bloodline was passed down from generation to generation.Originally Posted by toonice714
