Nothing really happened this chapter. Lots of tails and a black hole. And absolutely no resolution. If this Pein has anywhere near the chakra the Sage of the Six Paths did, this fight isn't going to be over for weeks.
I think Minato is going to tell Naruto how to use reverse summoning as a combat jutsu.

Naruto only has the yin chakra of kyubi sealed within him...and apparently there's a that jutsu which involves using the key to further weaken the seal.

That is not the way I interpreted it. Jiraiya already mentioned that the reason Naruto was able to go four tails was because he used that key to open Naruto's seal, and in the event of Jiraiya's death the key is supposed to be stored in Naruto. Key is in the lock and Naruto grows more tails it can't coincidental. Anyway as for the whole that jutsu thing, the way I interpreted it, Minato left the key to Naruto so that when the time comes he would be able to open the seal and gain control of the Kyuubi's chakra because he would need to be able to use the Kyuubi's power for "that jutsu."

Sapphire is awesome!
The key never agreed to anything, and we never saw the key interact with Naruto at all except for when he was sitting in Tsunade's room when she told him about Jiraiya's death.

wow.. never saw it coming lol..
damn you anti-climax, just tear that damn seal off. Unleash the nine tails ffs! go nuts!
You can't compare Bush to Hitler cause Bush is the village idiot and Hitler was border line genius, unfortunately he was border line insane also, so sad such a mind went to waste.
O_o
Holy shit... I dare someone say they called that one
Minato and a crazed 8 tailed fox, the next chapter is gonna be something out of this world
I dunno, I can see the next chapter being all dialogue.
assertnfailure (7:40:03 PM): dude....your posts are a bunch of nonsense
Same. We could possibly even get another several chapter-long flashback, like the Sasuke "brothers" flashback.
But, I expect that Pein will be killed within 3 chapters of the end of the dialogue. There's just no way he survives here for a future encounter.
We saw several deaths (or potential deaths), Konoha reduced to a crater, 5 of Pein's bodies destroyed, Pein use his forbidden technique, Nagato revealed, Naruto go sage mode and kick some ass, Hinata confess her love, Nine tails, and the appearance of Minato. What is left for a second appearance by Pein that could possibly top this one?
Kishi pulled all the tricks out of the bag for this single battle.
White Fang + Kakashi's Mangekyou Sharingan, Killerbee + Raikage, Akatsuki plan [Konan + Madara + Zetsu + Kisame], Orochimaru + Kabuto, the Sage of the Six Paths, ROOTS + Danzou, Sasuke + Sharingan shenanigans, ANBU and Jounin Exam [if applicable], the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist, Kurenai + her baby, more antecedent action of the Uchiha and Senjuu clan, the Key + frogs, a handful of "that jutsu"s, possible invasion of the other villages against Konoha, Naruto's mother, the rebuilding of Konoha, the release/death of all of the other Jinchuuriki, Team Hawk, etc.
Did I miss anything?

True but it doesn't make much sense any other way because like you said, what purpose does the key serve if he can already access all nine tails.
Nice seeing you

That depends on wth you're talking about.
...
To seal the Kyuubi after Naruto has flipped his shit and let a ton of tails loose?
Jiraiya said Naruto's emotion was the key to releasing the Kyuubi, and Naruto got a big dose of it when Pein killed Hinata right in front of him. Jiraiya and the Sealing Toad modified the seals to make it easier for Naruto to draw on the Kyuubi chakra, since they hoped he could control it. But it is pretty clear he can't yet -- indeed, the Kyuubi was manipulating him until Minato stepped in. Naruto was going to pull the paper seal off because he was angry.
My guess is that the paper seal on the Kyuubi's cage (in Naruto's mind or whatever) draws its power from Naruto's will. Even if all nine tails come out of Naruto, the Kyuubi won't be released until Naruto peels the sticker off the cage. This mechanism is the only way I can think of that Naruto could use the power of all nine tails without the Kyuubi being released, like how Killabee can use Hatchibi to its full potential without losing himself in anger or actually letting Hatchibi loose.
Naruto is going to have to use Sage mode concentration to suppress the Kyuubi's evil will. Until he can, there needs to be a way to force even nine tails back into him.
"After all, I am strangely colored."
Oh shit, guys! Naruto just found out that he's the son of the 4th Hokage!
He is so going to make babies with Hinata now. He's going to be pumped!
I always wanted Naruto's children to have Byukagan.
A very interesting chapter... I, like some others can definately picture the next chapter being mostly flashback, and/or dialoge between father and son. Past that though, I definately see the end of Pain to follow shortly there after. I just don't see how they could top what's happened so far and kill Pain off at another time. I could see some of the others finishing Nagato off though instead of Naruto because, unless he stays in his current 8/9 tails form, he's gonna be near wrecked and burned all over from the kyuubi chakra.
I do hope Naruto picks up more then just his past from Minato though. *crosses fingers*
Oh, and I'm not completely sure Hinata is dead. Yes she got messed up pretty bad, however they never went back to her after she went down. Naruto flipped out completely and obscured the landscape. It wouldn't surprize me if as the fight moves/moved away from the giant crater, some from Kanoha get in there and manage to get her to a medical ninja and save her. We already know she's a tough girl.
Did her saying, "Na... Naruto...," last chapter possibly tip you off to that?
I actually made the comment in response of poopd's above post which I quoted, but yes, I do think she is still alive and will make it through this encounter... It would just be so wrong if they killed her off like that.
