Sai's back. I was just asking what happened to that guy. With all the Danzo talk I had a feeling that we'd see him again soon.
My thoughts exactly. If someone comes to your home town and points a deadly weapon at you, you'd better react right away.Originally Posted by poopdeville

Yea, I wonder if he will be promoted at any time soon. He is like the world's most powerful Genin, apparently a tactical genius, and a hero of Konoha. Add to that he was the pupil of a guy that was considered to be the best bet for Hokage. I wonder if Danzou is elected, will he keep Naruto a genin.
He should take the Chuunin exam and pass it like Killua passed the Hunter's exam. It would be pretty damn sweet if he just kicked the crap out of everybody else, during the survival exam, and had no one to fight in the tournament.
I think they'll make him a Jounin fast, once he is allowed to lead a squad.

Interestingly enough, Sasuke was technically still a genin of Konoha until just a moment ago when Danzo decided to declare him a missing nin.
Yea, he could just KBJ and just own everyone all at once! I could see them making him a Special Jounin quickly. That seems like it would make sense.
when reading the manga (Im sure we all did) I laughed at how easily Sakura got knocked back, and how Naruto had to go over to her.
But then I was thinking about the beginning of shippuuden, and the fight against the puppet Akatsuki, and how they did all that development with Sakura, and how she was like, actually figthing, and wasn't useless, and I remember thinking like "ahh so she's not useless anymore". But it seems like that just got forgotten these days :\
does anyone think we'll get to see a useful Sakura again?

Sakura will be usefull in the final fight against Sasuke. When it comes down to the Summons. Because Tsunade will die but not before giving Sakura the slug summon ( forgot the name ). But for the time being I dont see her being very useful besides being Naruto's sidekick. She used to be the major powerhouse but seeing how Naruto can lift use statues in Sage mode....she currently isn't much.
I think Naruto's dream of becoming Hokage is drifting to the background. Because he wanted to do that so everyone would acknowledge him. The entire city does that now.
Sai being back is weird, is Anko now alone tracking Kabuto?
Lmao... i just remembered that the village's most powerful ninja ( probably ) is still a genin
Naruto did say he'd become Hokage even as a genin...
It was during the Chuunin exam's paper test, when he broke the tension in the room.
I don't know if that mission is still on. It doesn't seem like it. It has been at least a few hours or even a few days since Pein was defeated though.
"After all, I am strangely colored."
I just noticed the preview for next week's chapter says "the curtain rises on the meeting of the 5 kages." If thats true then I'm really looking forward to that chapter. That should be pretty interesting to see, especially if Madara is Mizukage.
and tobi, and danzo as everyone is preaching :P, fuck it, he`s probably all the kages at this point.
You cannot hope to build a better world without improving the individuals. To that end each of us must work for his own improvement, and at the same time share a general responsibility for all humanity, our particular duty being to aid those to whom we think we can be most useful. -Marie Curie
Man, that fight was great. Really reminds me of one of my favorite fights ever. No bullshit, just lots of quick thinking.
I've been reading the most recent chapters pretty sporadically, and it's been just about a year since I last contributed to a discussion in here, but can anyone remind me why I'm supposed to be suspicious of Danzo? Is it just the crazy Danzo = Madara theory y'all cooked up or is there something I've forgotten?
So far, aside from some shifty eyes, he's a pretty sympathetic and intelligent man. I still won't be surprised if a new Hokage is chosen once the Jounin vote, but I really got nothing against Danzo during the interim.
I'm really excited about the Kage meeting. It's been too long since we've seen Gaara.
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
Jiraiya said to be suspicious of him.
"After all, I am strangely colored."
He killed the frog messenger sent to inform Naruto to return? He pretty much created Pain? He dethroned Tsunade? He ordered all the Uchiha's killed? He's a dick? Take your pick. Who knows all of the shit he's done that has never come to light? He's kind of like the Federal Reserve in that respect.
He did ally with Hanzou (the created Pain part), wants to be the dictator of Konoha, and makes it so his subordinates can never talk about him. He is way too shady and suspicious.
Plus his right eye is bandaged and the only eye we see of Madara is his right.
He killed the frog messenger to prevent Pain from even getting the opportunity to capture Naruto. He dethroned Tsunade who was unquestionably, a terrible hokage. He ordered the Uchihas killed because it was the lesser of two evils. Either kill them or risk a civil war, it was the lesser of two evils and it was the right decision which is why Itachi went along with it. He's a dick, you're a dick, see my point?
I don't know much of Hanzou but if he was powerful enough to defeat all three of the sannin at the same time. Then he was certainly powerful enough to destroy Konoha, especially if Danzo was working with him, so there has to be a very good reason he didn't and the only thing that comes to mind is Danzo.
Btw saying Danzo created Pain is, I don't even know what to say to that. You may as well say Hashirama, the first hokage, created Pain. Jiraiya was Nagato's master so Pain wouldn't be what he was if not for Jiraiya, and the Third taught Jiraiya and Hashirama and his brother taught Sarutobi. Obviously Madara played some part in Pain's creation as well and that too leads straight back to Hashirama. See how ridiculous it is.
Shady and suspicious huh, with enemies like Orochimaru, Akatsuki, Madara and god knows what else the village has had to face over the years, the Uchiha uprising for example. Not to mention the ever present threat of other villages invading Konoha. It seems to me that a village as soft as Konoha is, would never exist if there wasn't someone in the shadows willing to dirty their hands to do what is necessary to protect the village.
If everybody in Konoha was as naive and forgiving as Tsunade or Naruto, the village would have been destroyed a long time ago. Bottom line is people like Danzo exist because they are necessary.

Dreaming impossible dreams.
Sapphire is awesome!
If given more time and more of a fight there is no doubt that Naruto could have taken them. It all comes down to prep time though.
assertnfailure (7:40:03 PM): dude....your posts are a bunch of nonsense
all that may be true, but it still doesn't explain why when other ninjas were fighting and dying for their country (village) Danzo was hiding in an underground hole.
special note, he, one of the village elders, was hiding and allowed Tsunade (the hokage, he's superior) to die in battle. and did he try to save the kids and the helpless people of the village? no. he made sure his personal guard doesn't fight.
that's the fine line between being a realist (making sure that the village as a concept can survive after the attack) and being a asshole.
Which is really too bad, since I really did like Danzo before, and I thought he could take the series into a new level.
sig made by Itachi-y2k5, thanks, dude!
Currently Watching: probably a show directed at 9 years old girls, lets be honest.
You know the important distinction between Batman and me? Batman is fictional. In real life, there isn't always an alternative.
