Why Danzou, WHY!?

[Psyke]

So Pain's piercings are there not just for decorative purposes. And Sakura can kill a giant centipede in a single punch? Where did Danzou pop out from anyway? And Kakashi's move, while cool, looked like he just electrocuted a dog.

noooooooooo the frog died

[rockmanj]

Are my eyes playing tricks on me, or did Naruto destroy a mountain? O_o And Danzou popping out from the shadows? I suppose he is a ninja after all.

Well I never liked those advisors anyways, so that little part this week was pretty good. But how does Kishi plan on ending this fight now that Naruto is "trapped" with Fukusaku. This fight is just too similar to the Orochimaru fight at this point and I wouldnt be surprised if Konoha actually manages to drive Pein away, just as the 3rd did with Orochimaru

I don't think this fight is anywhere near the 3rd and Oro's fight. There is no one at Konoha at this point that can level with Pein's power. I think Kakashi can buy a little time with his Mangekyou sharingan until he figures something out but he'll be dead by then. BTW, he is against 2 of Pein's body now. Figuring out the chakra modulator might help them disable Pein but there's also his rinnegan.

Well I was trying to compare the invasion angles of this fight, what with the families grouping together to fight, and also with the "traitorous" aspect of Danzou. And honestly I just hope Kakashi comes out of this alive. Jiraiya's already gone, lets just leave the rest alone Kishi -_-

[LaZie]

How dare you do that to the frog Danzou! What an evil bastard, but anyway, the best part about this ch was the lecture Tsunade gave them senior citizens. Finally gave them a little of what they deserve.

[Tyreal]

Well this chapter made me fully believe that Danzo is actually Madara/Tobi. When you compare Danzo on that last page to the small part of Madara's face that you see when he starts to take off his mask they look almost identical. Not to mention ANBU's Root division which Danzo leads is said to be similar to The Village of the Mists teachings (i.e. Bloody Village in the Mist or something was it's nickname) fits in very well with Madara also being the Mizukage. Also the fact that Itachi trained under Madara means that Madara must of been somewhat close to Konoha often, which allowed Itachi to track him down. Not to mention the most obvious fact which is that Danzo keeps the eye that Madara uses for his sharingan constantly covered by a bandage, their hair styles are also almost identical, I've also been told that Madara has pins in his right arm (although I can't find the chapter in the manga that supports this) and Danzo's right arm is always in a sling.

One the topic of the destroyed mountains near Naruto, I think that means that he might be able to through the Rasenshuriken now.

^^ Oh my god what a twist that would be.

One little flaw with this theory; why would Danzou, assuming he is Madara, keep Naruto AWAY from Pein? Sure he looks very similar but honestly does Madara need to be an exisiting character? Danzou obviously has his own plans here.

[Rikudo]

If that's the case, then the rumor about Danzou being an Uchiha is true. Except he's not another Uchiha, he is The Uchiha.

BTW, the title of the next manga is "Kakashi's hope" - could it be Gai? lol

Thats what I was thinking when I saw kakashi in this chapter. I was imagining Gai coming to his rescue and them teaming up (and possibly failing) against pain.

The only thing is, if he actually is secretly Madara, wouldn't everyone in Konoha know what Madara looks like, therefore know it's him? It'd have to be a bit like nobody recognizing that Clark Kent is actually Superman despite the only difference between them is the clothes they're wearing.

Well the statue at the Valley of the End looks nothing like Danzo or what we've seen of Madara for that matter. Not to mentioon Danzo keeps a good portion of his face covered.

[Assertn]

Danzou was trying to kill Sasuke. Madara was trying to win Sasuke over.
What's the connection?

Was this going on at the same time though? I don't think it was because when Sai went to assassinate Sasuke, Sasuke had no idea who Uchiha Madara was. From what I remember Danzo didn't want Orochimaru to have Sasuke (and we know that Madara has no problem killing fellow Uchiha), also Orochimaru had previously betrayed Akatsuki so it makes sense that Madara wouldn't want him to get any more powerful. He probably just took advantage of the fact that he could deal Orochimaru a blow from the shadows with Orochimaru blaming Konoha. Then later on after Sasuke dealt with Orochimaru (and Itachi for that matter) he decided to have him join Akatsuki.

[Vegechan]

My response wasn't about Danzou being Madara, I'm not sure about that twist... but I'm pretty sure by the time it's revealed who Madara is, he's going to be someone previously established.

[darkshadow]

perhaps danzou is Madara's brother? what if he never died? and they just traded eyes?

[Death BOO Z]

Possible, would require a whole lot of spin-shitting to explain how they gave a zombie the position of mega-military commander, or otherwise, how they gave that position to someone they don't know anything about.

Tyreal:
madare is the kind of guy that lived for a gzillion years just to get revenge (and has a use for another Uchiha to do it), he wouldn't kill Sasuke, especially when he knows that Itachi is dying.
Danzou allowed Tsunade to send 5 shitty genins to go after Sasuke, if he cared so much about preventing Orochimaru from getting Sasuke, he would have sent his own men after him (Sai.. maybe yamato? most likely a few others who could kick any of the sound nins ass).
unless, of course, you believe that Madare planned all this from ages ago, and knew that Sasuke would betray orochimaru, and this, and that, and he knew it all so good and actually planned the entire thing from beforehand. and if you believe that, then you'll believe anything.

also, Madare is already Tobi and Mizukage. he's got a good deal of personalities to take care of...
