    Wouldn't that be interesting....
    Kabuto being a spy for akatsuki as a spy for orochimaru as a medic nin for Konoha.
    So what they just passed him around as a child or something, orphan to medical squad, medical squad to akatsuki, akatsuki to Orochimaru and then back to the leaf as a spy for Orochimaru. I mean he is supposed to be only 22 now they must have passed him around more than addicts pass needles although that would explain why he is so messed up.

    Supposedly he started as a lone survivor from the enemy side of the "Kikyo Pass" battle or something, as a little kid....and then was adopted by the chief medic guy from Konoha.

    I'm not even really sure how oro got ahold of him.

    Wow, so yet another thing to add to the list. That is one seriously messed up childhood no wonder that guy is so messed up. I mean the only thing Sasuke had was that his older brother killed his entire clan and look how he turned out. I wonder what Kabuto is really like and what his motivations are, and what was up with his eyes turning red back when they were in the forest of death.

    I hope Kabuto is the spy now just because I think Kabuto is awsome and he hasn't done anything since the 3 Sannin arc.

    Well since he's in this arc's OP, I feel confident we'll see some Kabuto action later on, but seeing him fighting Yamato, it doesn't look like he'll be very cooperative. The first episode shows that they end up in Orochimaru's base, so maybe he does feel like spilling some info to them.

    Kabuto would actually make a lot of sense. Orochimaru was Sasori's original partner and Kabuto is Oro's right hand man so it's very possible that Kabuto would have had some contact with Sasori. Perhaps Kabuto was hoping to get back into Akatsuki himself by helping Sasori.

    I don't think Kabuto has any aspirations beyond serving Orochimaru, he reveres him on the level of a deity.

    Ah, forgot about that. Now we actually have a reason as to why Sasori put a spy on Oro, other than him being an Akatsuki traitor.

    Don't forget, Sasori had a technique that locks the spy's memories, making them indeed very loyal to their master, only for their memories to unlock, and their loyalty to return to their true master. That's how they tricked the Sand. Up to this point, Kabuto may have well been loyal to Oro, though at one point in the Chuunin exam arc, he did seem a bit fishy.

    What reason is there for Sasori to put a spy on Orochimaru other than him being an Akatsuki traitor. Aren't they too hunting him down trying to kill him. I have to give Oro credit though not only is he a S rank missing-nin who is wanted in most if not all the villages for death but even an organization made up solely of S rank missing-nin is hunting him and he still manages to escape them all. That is how you know you're a badass when even the bad guys want to kill you.

    I just want to see something really badass from Kabuto. I've been waiting for it since the scene where he approaches the unconscious Sasuke after the prelims.

    Well, Oro is still weaker than Itachi (he said so himself) so Oro might be strong, but not strong enough. And almost all of us would think that Zero is the strongest among the Akatsuki's. Hell, the guy is the leader among badasses and can do jutsu's through a hologram...

    Have you forgatten shippuuden ep1? It was naruto, sakura and sai (was it sai?) chasing sasuke. My memory may decieve me tho... Its clear that we are closing in on that moment.

    Besides come one! The guy in the end was definately Sasuke. The partial face matches and he wear the same kind on footwear.

    It would be logical for Sasuke trying to get closer to Akatsuki since he wants to kill hes brother. I think hes strong enough for that now.

    The meeting with the spy will happen on the Heaven and Earth bridge, Oro's hideout ain't a bridge I recon. And I don't think they chased Sasuke "the spy" to the hideout, cause when they encoutered Sasuke they seemed surprised to see him.

    But now we're on the subject, we saw Naruto and the rest of Team Kakashi running inside Oro's lair, that meant Oro wasn't there. Don't think he tolerates intruders that easily. Meaning he was gone, perhaps he found out about a certain spy in his organisation?...
    And in the opening song we did saw Oro in action.

    And I don't think Sasuke is strong enough to kill Itachi, if so, he's strong enough to kill Oro, and I doubt he'd let that happen. Since Sasuke is his new container.

    Tell me about it. Kabuto looked to have some serious potential as a major threat from the very beginning and the fact that they constantly compared him to Kakashi really got me excited about that, but it just never developed.

    That is an awfully closed minded way of thinking of things. This isn't DBZ this is Naruto so Oro saying that Itachi is stronger than him doesn't really mean much. Sure Itachi may be stronger than him and he may have defeated him in the past, but that may simply be due to their different fighting styles. I remember Jiraiya saying something to the effect that Oro is stronger than he is and that he was never able to defeat him, yet Itachi who is supposed to be stronger than Oro ran from Jiraiya even though he had Kisame to back him up.

    I'm not trying to attack you or anything, I'm just saying that 'strength' in Naruto doesn't automatically mean that one guy is stronger or better than someone else. Look at the what Temari did to Tayuya for example there is no way Temari was stronger that CS lvl 2 Tayuya, her jutsu was just well suited against Tayuya's.

    What? Were you not watching the conversations between them during the chuunin exam?

    Kabuto doesn't even LIKE Orochimaru.

    i m sure it is kabuto...

    Oro allways suggested that Kabuto is a Traitor, remember when he told him following: "If you wish to stop me, you should go and kill Sasuke now..." (or something like that)

    and i m sure Kabuto doesn't like beeing a servant, he seeks power because if he doesn't why would he be at Oro's side? So maybe he IS working for Akatsuki, because they promised him something. But on the other side... i don't get the point why sasori even HAS a spy among Orochimaru's troops... if they seek him and they know where he is, why don't they kill him?

    Btw being a spy does fit Kabuto very well... he can change his atittude in a matter of seconds this is just perfect when you have to act as a spy.

    Kabuto could also be something like a Double-Agent.... maybe he's working FOR orochimaru as a spy in akatsuki, which would also give the answer to the question why akatsuki did not catch up on him. he is allways one step ahead.
    Kabuto gives "not so important" information to sasori while he gathers all the infos he can get from beeing in contact with sasori/akatsuki

    so its difficult to say which side Kabuto serves, but actually the fact that he is very close to Oro is enough to convince me that kabuto is the spy, tell me... who else? the first ~200 episodes would be simply non-sense if he isn't.

    it can't be sasuke.. that would be simply stupid.. don't you remember the first episode? naruto/sakura etc. where SEARCHING for sasuke in the rooms...(at least that is what i read out of the scenes) so why would they search for him when he is the spy? they would have "found" him allrdy.

    That is by far the dumbest thing you have ever said. Kabuto does not intent to surpass Oro he simply wants to serve him. He loves Orochimaru and he is the only person Oro trusts he said so himself. The two of them just like to play games with each other which is what they were doing then/ There are many other examples of this like when Oro sent Kabuto after Shizune or the fight with the Sannin or the conversation they had about Kimimaro after he had left.

    Kabuto doesn't intend to surpass Oro at least not at this point. He seems to be content with merely serving him and helping him achieve his goals. He even offered Oro his body to use during the Sasuke retrieval arc.

    I think Kabuto working as a double or I suppose he was a triple agent makes alot of sense. If he was working as a spy for Orochimaru not only in the leaf but also in Akatsuki that would explain why Orochimaru was always able to stay one step ahead of them and why they were never able to find him.

    Cause, Orochimaru isn't spying on Orochimaru, and Sasuke isn't spying for Akatsuke. And we don't know any other sound people.

    Seeing you say that Orochimaru isn't spying on Orochimaru made me think of a possible 4th scenario. Orochimaru sent the "spy" to Sasori and was playing him all along to keep tabs on Akatsuki. Seems plausible to me.

    A Kabuto vs Yamato fight would be very cool. Though they would have to distract Naruto, Sakura and Sai or he would be running away and thus ruin the fight. *Crosses fingers*
