Naruto Special: 110-111 Discussion

From the way those 4 sound nin talked, I get the impression that they're only chuunin. Otherwise why would it be so risky to take on 2 jounin? Then again, if they're Orochimaru's elite guard, that doesn't speak well for the Sound village's ninjas.

I think the only reason they are his elite guard is because there ability to make those sheilds. There not entirely useless, and the Village of Sound I think is relively new, they wouldn't have alot of jounin potential just yet. The one thing I am curiuse is when Genma(I think ... the guy with the toothpick lol) says "Wait, Iwashi. Their techniques are not shinobi techniques. ..." this really caught my eye because I don't think he is refering to there curse seals (since I think there common place at high level jutsus) but maybe something else and thats why Orochimaru has them for his elite guard ... or maybe they were his first recruits. I'm just speculating but when he said that I was like "whoa ... christ there powerful and must have something more dangerous up there sleaves" that ... and the ending just rocked.

I'm supposed to be doing three assignments and my mind keeps heading back to whats going to happen next on Naruto.

I just thought of this. the 4 sound nins were very strong to start with but they wanted to have more power thats why they joined up with orochimaru to get the cursed seal but the only way they would get it was to agree to be orochimaru's elite guards. hmmm[img]i/expressions/rolleye.gif[/img]

[Mut]

i think you guys are forgetting the fact that sound village is only recently created and i'm sure everyone knows that orochimaru is the head boss there. which means that most ninjas will pass up on being a sound nin cuz of orochimaru evil ideals. so, i don't think he has a huge supply of ninjas and probably has to resort using ninjas like the 'sound 4.'

[Deblas]

yeeeeeea, makes sense. but if the sound village is recently created who are the sound nins. runaway nins from other villages i guess

[Aeon]

People like Zaku(think that was his name), who he finds and promises power to.

[Board of Command]

They're people like Gaara that everyone hates, mainly because they're freaks of nature. So they get all sad and run away, then meets Oro who decides to take care of them and train them. He earns their trust, gives them the seal, and makes them the elite guard.

[tensai]

yeah, oro seems to like having wierd people around, or should i say special

oro cant just give anyone the curse seal though, i remember that someone said that theres a possibility that the seal would kill the person and only those who are strong can survive the seal

[jing]

Yeah, that or like Tsunade said, that damn pervert.

[Board of Command]

I think the seals on the sound 4 are different from Sasuke's. Not sure if it's due to lvl 2, but their's only cover parts of the body while Sasuke's covers the whole body.

Oro might have given them weaker seals so they don't get too strong.

[jing]

Nope, they are different seals, but not even sasuke's covers his whole body. so we can forget about that theory.

[Assassin]

what do u mean by different seals?

[jing]

They looked different.

[basey44]

im sure its all the same seals, but the look of the dots that cover the body would depend on the user
even though the dots are different im sure the look of the seal, where they were bitten, is the same for all of them
except sasuke cos he had kakashi play with his seal

[wirm]

They did have different patterns on each person, but I'm guessing that it's not important. I'm sure they all do pretty much the same thing.

BTW, if I recall correctly, the cursed seal covered almost all of Sasuke's body when he took out the 3 sound genins. But during his fight with Gaara, it only covered up half. I'm guessing this has to do with how much power he draws from it.

As for Genma's comment about the sound 4 not using shinobi techniques, I thought he meant that they used the curse seals to fight instead of weird jutsus. I don't know what else it could mean.



Also, I'm pretty curious as to whether or not Kabuto has the cursed seal. Perhaps that's what he was doing when his eyes started to turn red against the rain genins in the forest of death. if he does have the seal, then it would give him an edge over Kakashi.

[kooshi]

Just watched this episode from ANBU - AonE and it is FREAKING AWESOME. The only problem was the cliffhanger at the end! It just kills me whenever they do this.
As for the 4 Sound ninjas, it seems that they are not as strong as many would think they would be. They used the cursed seal, yet they had to rest a lot after the fight, and that was only against 2 Jounin. They're probably like Sasuke: they're above strong, but want more power to compensate. It's also quite creative what the spider ninja can do at the end with those webs.
Lastly, TOOTHPICK! That was such a kickass part!

[Xollence]

Yeah but those were two very strong jounins, and they weren't resting because of the fight with the jounins, it's because they used the cursed seals.

[kooshi]

Hmmm, good point Xollence, I seem to have forgotten about that [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

[Raposo_C]

Wait a minute I got an idea:
Maybe Sakura will come in and save the day with her brutal strength

Uhm ... ok maybe not lol. I still think the Village of Sound has no jounin or atleast very few and thats why Oro dosen't send them out all the time. You got to remember, besides Kabuto (who is the only one I think is a Jounin so far) there is nobody else strong enough to actualy rage war with Kanoha (reason why he allied with the Sand nins) but I wanna see if there going to bring the war (if there is any) into the arc. I mean, would be cool to see a bunch of Nin's fighting, with like Guy and Kakashi leading teams and in the meantime, your watching Shikarmaru and company running in there wake after Sasuke(not going to happen probably still will be cool)

Anyway for the theory of the different seals, I think it effects everyone differently. The reason for the changes in design would just be for that reason, they each have different abilities because of that seal ... or atleast I thought. And in closing ... I'm never going to forget that toothpick move ... never it was the best so far ... so subtle.

[Aeon]

It's not like the Jounins were at full strength, they had just finished a mission that must've been S Rank since it took 4 of them to complete it, and you know it was hard since they don't have man power to over send.

[Mut]

why does everyone assume that the seals on the sound 4 are any different than the one sasuke has? why ignore common sense and think that the seals are different? they have different designs so each one can be unique, duh. but sakon said it himself, 'you're not the only one orochimaru has taken a liking too' with his curse seal activated. that should tell you that the seals are same.
