I agree with people that this chapter is just a teaser...there is no way Itachi could die this early and suddenly. Well Mangekyou might not be the ultimate finish move for either of these Uchihas because of what Itachi said last time, something about having a sharingan can resist verses Mangekyou. I know that Kakashi couldn't handle MS with his sharingan but I'm led to believe that happened because Kakashi wasn't of Uchiha blood. And we don't even know if Sasuke acquired the Mangekyou yet...

i'm also enjoying Sasuke's constant use of snake-like jutsus to support his main jutsus...can totally see the Orochimaru's training influence on him

i just pray that the next chapter is a continuation of this fight, rather than frog goes back to Konoha type of thing...i can't stand the tease from this chapter
