Chapter 246

[Hikyuu]

Ok, I believe that since naruto and sakura have been training under the "Legindary Sanin" and what not that two and a half years of rigorous training would definitely put them up to at least equivalent to a high chuunin level shinobi. As for actual rand I dont think one should speculate that. For all we know there were radical reforms affectection the Konoha's villige structure ( Though I kind of doubt it.) . Im not an expert or anything of the sort on the manga.. I have only read from where the TV series is right now till present.. (( I was very bored last night)) anyway to end my ramblings I kinda saw the dynamic of Naruto Sasuke and Sakura mimicing the Sanin and so far it seems to be serving true. Yeah rambling time to shut up..I look foward to seeing the plot develop from here.

[Assertn]

im not talking about skill equivalent....im talking about formal rank -_-

kiba, chouji, ino, hinata, shino, lee, neji, and tenten wont have "being trained by a sannin" as an excuse to miss their chuunin exams, at least....

Dan is Granny Tsunade's lil brother. So i guess in a way he is older than shizune.

[fremeer]

dan would be like 40 or something, he died as a gennin so >10 but tsunade was like max 20 so ig tsunade is 50 now dan is 40 somehting, which would make him quiet old

Wasnt Dan the name of her boyfriend not her brother....

Cause if he was, then Shizu would be Tsunade's niece.

Yes Dan was Tsunade's boyfriend.
Can't recall her little brother's name though.

Dan is definatly Tsunades Boyfriend who died and NOT her little brother.

[Mut]

isn't the little shit's name iwaki or something...

[kAi]

it would be good if naruto became anbu, but i don't think that will be happening anytime soon.

[sangai]

tsunade's lil bro's name is nawaki.



anyways since i just popped in hi all hows it goin.

just my thoughts on the chapter..


well went by a lil to fast, just as i suspected, kishi only showed us what sakura had, not alot of it but only hers, the fact that he made naruto think for once was suprising, so we did get very lil not much.


over all kinda campy way to do the chapter.


great cheapter i look forward to next week.

Most likely they've already taken the exams during the 2 year + jump. I wonder whether the jounins which were teaching them are still their mentors. But I can't really see Gai teaching Neji anymore, as Neji needs to expand on his skills which are of course from the Hyuga clan.

Anyone remember Hanabi? I wanna see her soon as I believe she will one day take on Neji!

[PSJ]

that fire cracker aint got anything on neji. i think neji who learned the kaiten and the 64 hand of hakke all by himself will be the strongest hyuuga in not so long. seeing as hinata father is already quite old a neji is young. wow first time i actually said anyhting good about neji..... as for the others i think lee will be very strong by now and shikamaru should have some more all round skill.

[Hakeem_21]

It would be a suprise if finaly Lee could shine for once.....

Im looking forward to seeing Lee,Neji,Hinata and Shino, how they look now and how good they are...

[LobsterMagnet]

Who knows maybe shikimaru is a jounin or at the very least an anbu squad commander. I wonder if he'll tell naruto that the village is in a grave situation with multiple enemies pressing on all sides.

[Doc]

Ya know for everyone saying that Sakura and Naruto cant have completed the chuunin exam without a 3 man team I dont ever remember hearing that the exam takes place in the fire country every 6 months. It would make sense for the location to change to another country where the rules could be very different.

[PSJ]

the exam changes countries yes but its still for 3 man genin teams and i guess that rule still applies.

[Hikyuu]

I wonder where the totally useless academy students are now.. Who has made genin and such
EDIT: Any thoughts?

[Ryllharu]

Hopefully, excepting Konohamaru, completely eliminated from the entire series.

[Winged Dancer]

Meh, we'll see Konohamaru's team sooner or later...

Anyway, maybe we'll see a bit of the genin this week. Seems that at least Shikamaru is completely guaranteed, but it'd be nice to see the others...

And Sasuke. Where the hell is he?? I'm not his no.1 fan or anything but I'm curious as to how much eyeliner he wears nowadays! And his eye-shade color, too. I wonder if he uses Orochimaru-purple or maybe he decided dark red would go with his Sharingan better?
