that would make a lot of sense with Itachi gauging Sasuke's potential and why he left him alive, he wants the stronger person to take out Madara so in either scenario Itachi wins.

As for the wounds, your reason is the most likely but I think there was a fight as well before Sasuke's Showdown.
I'd say its more likely he acted the way he did, in order to make Sasuke want to become stronger than himself at any cost, simply because he knew he couldn't beat Madara himself.
 
This should be obvious by now but there is no chapter this week.
 
I'm still scratching my head as to how Naruto and Co. are gonna beat Madara's "Space-Time" Jutsu. Out of lots of possibilities, the one I find closer to achieve is:

Trap Madara in Mangekyo Sharingan and since time doesn't work normal in that dimension, they can attack his body while he is immobile.
 
Well in a sense Sasuke has the ability to put people in different dimensions or enter them...he did that with Orochimaru and entered Naruto's Kyubi dimension inside of Naruto.
 
If they can't immobilize him, they don't stand a chance and the only ability fast enough to work is eye contact.

That dimension jumping is also what I'm banking on as to how Madara can be alive after so much time. He hid in that dimension for idk how many years. Maybe the blackness in which he jumped after getting engulfed by the Black Fire is the portal.
 
Am I the only one who thinks that the "OMFG IM NOT RLY BAD IM GOOD!!!" is ridiculous? So many twists that they can hardly be considered twists any longer. A straight-forward plot without twists would be more surprising in this era.

To me its not really that much hard to consider. Itachi has had his leaf village headband on the whole time. Also, if Madara could control Kyubi then its not much of a stretch that he could control Itachi. If you really think about it, you can go on and on about the many different possibilities of how Itachi could have been good all along or at least had good intentions.

This makes Itachi the oldest undercover agent in Konoha history.

The First Hokage defeated him, so I doubt it'll be as difficult as people are thinking.

Isn't the first also considered one of the most powerful ninjas in history?
 
yes, but as the generations have come more and more powerful ninjas have been bred.

Remember the Akatsuki guy that killed him? Given that he's old or older than the first he has risen to the ranks as the implication "being stronger than a hokage."

Naruto had to finish the old bastard after 3 people wailed on him. Naruto's and especially Sasuke's potential is definitely proving to be stronger than the previous hokages themselves.

all of the akatsuki members could be considered strong as or stronger than hokages since at least 2 people is required to just dispatch one...

Unless you're awesome like shikamaru
 
Yes, that's the thing. Since Madara has had over 100 years to train and become stronger then he was then, you can't assume that killing Madara will be an easy task, just because the First Hokage defeated him back then.

Basically pulling a Hao Asakura method of gaining strength by body snatching and to live forever and train.

Kakuzu didn't kill the first Hokage, he simply fought against him. Victory and Defeat aren't the definition of Live and Die in battle.

As for the First Hokage being the strongest, I'm pretty sure that title belongs to the Fourth. Which Naruto is surpassing in spades.

To be fair to Hidan, he was purely a gimmick ninja. Not a one trick pony Ninja, but pure gimmick. Without that gimmick, as we saw, he's a worthless sack of shit.

Kind of off topic, but I believe Naruto will end up learning how to do some technique like the "Yellow Flash." To keep up with Sasuke and take down Pain he will need to get stronger.
 
In theory Naruto is somewhat stronger than sasuke now...no curse mark and a Mangekyou for self defensive measures against tobi he can't control yet...Naruto has that wind shuriken thing, which undoubtedly he will learn to throw just because of its name...
 
Kazuzu ripped the guy's heart out correct? That'd kill any guy even a ninja

Kakuzu did not rip out the First Hokage's heart. They just fought, maybe not even face to face but just in the same war against eachothers villages. All that was mentioned is that he was there, fighting, and so was the First. Just to show his age.

The top text is fake.

This chapter has a massive amount of plot revelation, so I'm keeping my trap shut.

There's been a lot of bullshit going around with some of the fansites recently, so if you want scanlations I ask of you to respect the scanlating group and go directly to their supported website, www.mangashare.com

Latest releases tab on the right can get you the newest chapter in Naruto AND Bleach mangas immediately after release.
