Pretty cool chapter. Wasn't expecting this much action crammed into a few pages. Kinda don't like that KB is helping him do what he's supposed to do himself, but oh well. I guess it would be too soon to say Naruto alone can defeat the Kyuubi. That's probably reserved for Sasugay later on.

Did Naruto actually gathered Nature chakra without the need of clones, while in a fight, with Kyuubi nonetheless? Or did I miss something. If he did, that's awesome progress. Hopefully he can already do a quality one handed Rasengan with his own chakra.
