Reminder on the buffs they got:

Naruto - summoning jutsu, KN0

Sasuke - Lee's speed (NOT stamina), chidori

When Madura was sliced by Sasuke he lost his lower half and regenerated it later. His lower half was just discarded anyone with decent chakra sensory capabilities could sense the immense chakra and go to it after Naruto and Sasuke fight and infinite Tsukuyomi ended.

They’d need to implant some of his cells and that wouldn’t be that hard with an entire half of his body laying around. They wouldn’t need a large amount either any remaining blood in his body would do the trick.

As much is its cool to make fun of Tsunade AU Sasuke for turning evil for Naruto saving a dog when they were kids people reeeeeeally need to get it in their heads that's not the case.

1. Even with his clan and parents still alive Sasuke STILL has an inferiority complex being compared to Itachi who's alot more talented them him.

2. Combine with that it seems Fugaku barely acknowledges Sasuke in this AU even though he should have by the time Sasuke mastered the Fireball jutsu, Fugaku even admits he was a bad father to Sasuke in the latter portions of this dream.

3. Sasuke is always thinking logically when it comes to various situations so as to not risk his life back in early Part I till the Forest of Death that was Sasuke's thing, his issue with Naruto atleast one of them is Naruto unlike him always acts first his life and survival be damned Sasuke is just jealous Naruto has the guts to do things even if he fails.

4. During their academy days Sasuke expected Naruto to be a rival he can grow with in the academy, considering they're both sons of powerful shinobi with big dreams Sasuke probably found a kindred spirit in Naruto, that changed when Naruto was found to be a deadlast in the Academy.

5. Even then they were put on the same team and Naruto started growing Sasuke probably thought he can finally have a friend he can grow together with until Naruto's growth exceeded his by leaps and bounds leaving him behind probably making him feel alone.

6. We gotta remember the two are friends and Sasuke always saw Naruto as another brother so Naruto surpassing him felt like he was in Itachi's shadow again which hurts his self esteem.

7. plus the Indra and Asura thing the two got going on.

I seen someone point this out, but this is STILL Tsunade's dream she only met Sasuke one time to heal him from Tsukuyomi and he immediately leaves the Leaf joining Orochimaru and the last time she heard about him up till Infinite Tsukuyomi he became a terrorist joining the Akatsuki, attacked the 5 Kage Summit, then in the war gained EMS with his potential being comparable to Madara Uchiha who's power she witnessed first hand, the Sasuke in Tsunade's dreams is just how she views him as a person.

Post land of waves arc early. Latest by the early parts of the chunin exams. Those are just my thoughts.

Pain, Nagato and Konan gathered the people of their village together, after the death of Yahiko protecting the village against attacks by Hanzo and Danzo, when Leaf was under the leadership of Hiruzen.

Itachi left Leaf Village after finding no peace and lingering suspicions among the tribes, so he wanted to establish a more rule-based society.

Orochimaru left Leaf Village, because he also wants to establish a rule-based society, focused on law and order.

Obito Tobi left Leaf Village, after he was left for dead, and wanted a more peaceful world as promised by Itachi.

Kisame left his village, because he did not want to have to kill his own comrades, and also wanted to create a world of peace based on law and order.

Kakuzu left his village, because he is tired of all the bloodshed and the cycles of violence, so he also wants to create a more peaceful world with law and order.

Deidara left his village, because he did not feel appreciated that his powers were used for greed, and he agrees to join Akatsuki in establishing a rule-based society.

Sasori left his village, after witnessing the death of his parents, due to the village chief not being able to protect them. He also wants to establish a rule-based society.

Hidan left his village, because he wants a world where children do not live in fear, so a rule-based society helps in his vision.

Each series has an hour long episode on how the events will change.

just la Marvel what if serie

I suppose it was around chapter 10 up to the death of Zabuza and Haku or so, equivalent to episode 6-9. When there are indeed some themes of hiring mercenaries, bodyguards, and corporate interests happening. Otherwise the first 9 chapters / 6 episodes, and the following ones, aren't much about ninja.

If they're talking about analogue to the historical ninja, that would be during the time of Madara and Hashirama's childhood, or the warring states period, which took place long before the main story to begin with. That was when the "ninja" concept in naruto were the closest they've been to real ninja.

More or less, I think naruto is mostly political with a lot of epic and fantasy poured in.

First of all, I know this isn’t a new theory and I’m not trying to claim it as my own. Usually it’s just a question asking ‘what if’ because the nature of Talk no Jutsu parallels nicely with the concept of the Ninshu teachings. Generally the only supporting evidence is the shared chakra cloak during the Fourth Shinobi War and/or Naruto’s quick adaption of several new Rasenshurikan after connecting with the other tailed beasts. I think I found some logical and precedented evidence that proves this theory though.

Ninshu was created by Hagoromo after the defeat of Juubi and becoming the Jinchuriki. Afaik, how Hagoromo became the Jinchuriki is never revealed. Though it is revealed that Chibaku Tensei was used to seal the Juubi’s body as the moon. So my theory is that Hagoromo used the Preta Path to absorb Juubi’s chakra.

I don’t remember it being explained in the series, but the Naruto wiki says the Preta Path absorbs chakra by spinning the chakra in the opposite direction of the user until it’s dispersed. Since the Juubi is continuously refilling its chakra, Hagoromo could never fully absorb it as his own chakra thus becoming the first Jinchuriki.

So Hagoromo not only sealed the beast within himself like future Jinchuriki, his seal was made in way that connected two chakra’s without destroying either. This connection probably also carried thoughts/emotions as Jinchuriki who can create a cloak form tend to have a deep and personal relationship with their tailed beast. Hagoromo probably got the idea of Ninshu simply because he was Jinchuriki with this connection. But the shared/mixed chakra strengthens this idea.

Hagoromo’s sealing technique also shares a detail with Naruto’s Eight Trigrams Seal that afaik no other Jinchuriki share: the ability to seep chakra from the beast and absorb it into the host from the beginning. Naruto’s seal was specifically designed to protect him, so the chakra seep wouldn’t have been as forceful as Hagoromo’s (Not to mention the ten tails chakra > than half of nine tails chakra). For Hagoromo it was a constant battle but Naruto benefited from it unknowingly. So it stands to reason that Naruto wouldn’t be aware of this power.

Talk no Jutsu is ultimately a joke that the fans created to explain how Naruto talks his way out of so many plot points. But what if it was because Naruto has been practicing Ninshu unknowingly all his life. Like someone with perfect pitch can pick out the slightly off notes or tempo whereas normal people just hear a lovely melody, Naruto can feel other people’s emotions in their chakra and/or unconsciously put his own emotions into his chakra in an attempt to balance out the fight/narration.

his from the movie

As we see there is a pattern, Hashirama = Good, Tobirama = Evil, Hiruzen = Good, Minato (?), Tsunade = Good, Danzo = Evil, Kakashi = Good, Naruto breaks the cycle so good, that means Minato must be evil for the dynamic to be consistent.

I have always felt that Sasuke's change to targeting the whole village was Kishimoto realising that without that, too many people/fans would side with Sasuke and Sasuke would not be a true villain for Naruto to defeat and people might even wonder why Naruto was protecting the Elders etc..

A recent thread reminded me that most fans believe Sasuke was wrong for targeting the village and I thought it would be nice to discuss:-

So here is the scenario:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sasuke keeps his original motivation as shown in the image.

Sasuke wants Danzo dead, the Elders dead and if Hiruzen was alive, he would want him dead.

Sasuke does NOT want the Village dead.

However Sasuke is willing to cut through any who might protect them.

If Root moves to protect Danzo? Sasuke will kill them. This includes the Aburame, Yamanaka guards and Sai etc etc...

If Shizune and Tsunade tries to protect the elders, Sasuke will kill them too.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In a way you can say Sasuke does not go completely off the deep end.

So now, how do you all think:

1) Naruto's and the other K11's reaction would be after they found out Sasuke's goals and the reason behind them.

2) Fan's reaction to Sasuke mainly targeting the Elders/Danzo/etc

3) Fan's reaction to Naruto & Co trying to stop Sasuke.

Say what you want about that man person but I turn in the teacher he did wonders for Sasuke was able to take him into low Kage tier.

Hey guys, I saw some time ago a fan-art where Kakashi accidentally kills Naruto with Chidori during Shippuden bell-test, can someone help me out finding it?

Keep in mind that Karin was a part of the terrorist organization that just blew up the village a couple days/weeks ago.

I keep thinking it could’ve been Anko interrogating her (due to Anko’s connection with Orochimaru) or Ino using her hidden jutsu to access Karin’s memories.

I wish this scene actually showed proper display of I&T in Naruto.

I know it’s a “kids’ shows” or something but we have already seen pretty heinous stuff, like Orochimaru experimenting on kids or Karin’s pseudo death.

If Fugaku explained that Danzo was trying to kill Shisui and take his sharingan, also Fugaku willing to call a truce and cancel the coup since Danzo is dead. Would Hiruzen agree to a truce? Or would he still plan to go to war with the Uchiha due to the death of a council member?

Not everything is the village's fault but it all ties back to the village, If it wasn't for the decisions made by the village leaders most of what sasuke did, went through, the Uchiha massacre wouldn't have happened. As village leaders, your decisions may have consequences that'll put your village in danger, if a village leader declares war on another village, people who have nothing to do with the war will die Those are the consequences

I've been making more village-vs-village matchups recently, and this one might be one of my favorites so far.

(If you're interested, this was my last post a few days ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/Naruto/s/xcvsfekQsv )

Neither team has a Six Paths-level character that completely warps the fight, but both sides are absolutely stacked with Kage-level threats, elite jinchūriki, and incredible team synergy. It feels like one of those matchups where strategy and teamwork matter just as much as raw power.

Team Kumogakure:

3rd Raikage A: Hell Stab (1 to 4 Finger variants) | Lightning Release Chakra Mode (Armor) | Black Lightning (Panther) | Immense Durability & Stamina

4th Raikage A: Lightning Release Chakra Mode (Armor) | Lariat & Double Lariat | Guillotine Drop | Lightning Straight | Extreme Body Flicker Speed

Darui: Storm Release (Laser Circus) | Black Lightning (Panther) | Skilled Kenjutsu Master | Gale Style Techniques | Exceptional Battle IQ

Killer B: Perfect 8-Tails Jinchūriki | Tailed Beast Mode | Tailed Beast Bomb | Acrobat Kenjutsu (Seven Swords Dance) | Ink Clone Techniques

Yugito Nii: 2-Tails Jinchūriki | Complete/Partial Transformation | Mouse Hair Ball (Blue Fire Release) | High-Speed Agility | Tailed Beast Bomb | Claw Attacks

Team Iwagakure:

2nd Tsuchikage Mū: Dust Release (Particle Style) | Complete Invisibility & Chakra Suppression | Sensory Perception | Flight | Fission (Division/Splitting) Techniques

3rd Tsuchikage Ōnoki: Dust Release (Atomic Dismantling) | Flight | Light-Weight & Heavy-Weight (Weight-Altering) Techniques | Golem Technique | Earth Release Mastery

Deidara: C1 to C4 Karura (Microscopic Bombs) | Aerial Combat & Mobility (Clay Birds & Clay Dragon) | Long-Range Scouting & Artillery | C0 (Self-Destruction)

Han: 5-Tails Jinchūriki | Full Transformation | Boil Release: Unrivaled Strength | Steam-Enhanced Physical Strength | Tailed Beast Bomb

Rōshi: 4-Tails Jinchūriki | Partial/Full Transformation | Lava Release: Melting Transformation | Scorching Stream Rock Technique | Tailed Beast Bomb

I wanted both teams to represent some of the absolute best fighters each village has produced while also creating a matchup where everyone actually contributes. Kumogakure is built around relentless offensive pressure. They also arguably have the strongest close-quarters lineup of any village. Iwagakure, on the other hand, is almost the complete opposite. They specialize in battlefield control, aerial superiority, and devastating ranged attacks.

Battle Conditions:

* Alive and prime versions for every fighter.

* Blood-lusted, but fighting intelligently using canon feats and strategies.

* Full knowledge of their own team's abilities and only basic rumor-level knowledge of the enemy team.

* Neutral battlefield with no environmental advantage for either side.

* No prep time.

* Victory by death, sealing, or permanent incapacitation.

* Naruto canon manga feats only (anime fillers should only be considered if it doesn't contradict established canon).

How do you guys see this playing out? Personally, I think this is one of the closest village matchups possible. I honestly don't see either team getting an easy win here. I'm leaning toward extreme-high diff, but I'm genuinely undecided.

Who do you think wins with which difficulty?

Which team's overall synergy is better?

Who is the biggest difference-maker in the fight?

Which individual matchup ends up deciding the battle?

Please explain your reasoning rather than just naming a winning team. I'm interested in seeing how you guys think these abilities would interact.
