Chapter 199 translation is out!

[Jiraiy4]

you~you~ your good you~ i like you~

[makkura]

well.... sasuke fans will breath easier now that orochimaru has changed his body and won't be able to take over the body of sasuke for a few years.

this story is getting intriguing.

[EvolutionJitsu]

Getting a little too sci fi for me.

[Uzumaki Kakashi]

now that was an amzing chapter. so much m,ore to the story was just added. rather then just action now there is a huge ass plot twist


just awesome

[XwingRob]

Yeah...and it appears because of this plot twist Orochimaru is going to become a long term enemy of naruto.

[Winged Dancer]

Yep yep!! Now we know that Sasuke is about to emerge from the barrel (which I'll still call Sasuke-in-a-Barrel just for the monkey reminder) and who knows what form he'll take.... Normal Sasuke, Lvl.1 or perhaps Lvl.2?

Even more Kimimaro has gotten up and is said to be as strong as Sasuke, if not more. And he has sworn now to bring Sasuke to the village... and since Orochimaru has taken a new body, now we do have a reason for Sasuke to get there - <i>now</I> he can be trained by Orochimaru for a "few years" before he takes over his body.

Ooh, ooh, and Kimimaro has an existencial problem!! He feels he doesn't have any reason to exist or something like that. Can anyone say Naruto vs. Kimimaro? I sure can! Naruto has to change that philosophy as well!!
So perhaps we now have Sakon vs. Shikamaru (since Shikamaru is mentioned in the "Coming Next" bit), Kiba vs. the other girl and possibly Naruto vs. Kimimaro...

Or, as it sounds at the moment; Sakon & Other girl vs. Shikamaru, Kiba and Naruto, and once that on is over, Kimimaro vs. Naruto.

Anyway, I really enjoyed that chapter. It was a nice break, after the fighting and more fighting, now we have a litte explanation and plot twist!!

Whoowhoowhoo I'm excited about what happens next now. Perhaps Sasuke <i>will</i> get to the sound... now anything could happen. Even a time jump.

[Chi Chi]

It was a nice chapter. Although the character ranking was hard to read and with the Jutsu ranking the Raikiri or Lightning Cutter got second place and the Chidori third. I always thought it was the same.

[Death BOO Z]

what's the diffrence between Chidori and Rakiri?

i was under the imression they are the same thing - the original Jutsu of Kakashi that he taught Sasuke...

or am i wrong?

[Insomniac]

[Uzumaki Naruto]

No. No, it wasn&#39;t. It stopped Oro at that time. Not to mention that it set Oro back quite a bit because he was forced to posses someone with less potential than Sasuke and that he&#39;s unable to change bodies for a few years now.

hey i couldnt read the ranknings could sum1 who was able to read them plz post it for me plz

dude wouldnt sasuke be awake by the time kimmimaro or wateva gets there...which makes things more interesting, maybe by the time kimmimaro gets to the fight naruto may hav weaved his majic and convinced sasuke not to leave everything behind, then both work together to stop kimmimaro (far fetched plot idea but it seems kool to me )

[Insomniac]

Naruto has no chance against Kimmimaro and Sasuke

I think this is the point in which the leaf fails the mission

[Naruto_-_Kun]

insomniac i said that maybe naruto will convince sasuke to stay with the leaf and naruto and sasuke both fight of kimmimaro.

also it would be fair to say that kabuto is stronger than kimmimaro and naruto is nearly as strong as kabuto as seen in there battle....so it may not be that far fetched to think naruto could fight evenly with kimmimaro...........
