Hmm...I kinda wondered if there were other sage modes and animals since it didn't make since for Jiraiya to have learned something like that and the other Sannin not to know about it. Now I wonder who's going to pull out the toad sage mode.

Also did anyone see that "Karin is from the Uzumaki clan" coming? That was a plot twist that (not gonna lie) took me by surprise. I like how the story is playing connect the dots though.

for the record, those two pieces of information do not qualify as plot twists.

I can't really say why, but I didn't like this chapter. I think the translation I read was just crap, with this "Dr. Snakes" stuff.. I couldn't take anything they were saying seriously :-\

okay more like plot developments then (i don't know)? Also did you read the one off mangareader? I was confused by that "Dr. Snake" stuff too. I went to some other websites to see if they had different translations but no luck.

The translators could have done a better job. I think we've been spoiled by Mangastream.

I had mixed feelings about Kabuto being a sage. I mean on the one hand it makes sense, especially with how overt Orochimaru's snake features often were. On the other hand it begs the question of what other sages there are. Is there a Slug sage? What would the side effects of that be, slime? I'm also guessing Kabuto isn't at the same level as Naruto on account of he looks so snake like instead of it just being his eyes.

It was a fun chapter though, although my interest level drops whenever Sasuke is front and center. Especially with the weird dialogue between himself and his brother.

Technically the frog sage mode can fully turn the person into a frog, but that's in case of failure. It's probably not a viable comparison and just a different thing altogether that people just give the same name to.
If I struggled to the end of my determination, to the end of my way of life with my followers, if the result is ruin, then this ruin is inevitable. Grieve. Shed tears. But you cannot regret.

yeah I dont know I thought it was a bit of a let down with Kabuto turning into sage mode.  I thought "his big trump card is sage mode?....I think Kabuto is late to the party." LOL I guess I was expecting a little more of a trump card or ninjustu .  I also thought Dr. Snakes WTF...

that.

"Snakes can sense things through temperature, and they can also do it with their sense of smell by passing the smell in the mouth"

"You've learned a lot.. Dr. Snakes"

"I did plenty of research in order to beat Orochimaru"

God.

Is there a Slug sage?
If the evolution of a snake is a dragon, she might become a butterfly, but that's unlikely to happen.

Yeah, "Doctor Snake" as in "Guy who studied snakes a lot and know a lot about them like a Doctor of Science would" is kinda lame... :P

Epic lol!

The translations on Mangareader do kinda suck, but overall this chapter was lame. I can't take this fight seriously considering Sasuke went toe-to-toe with several kages and Itachi murdered the entire Uchiha clan; if they don't straight up wipe the floor with Kabuto then this series just turned into DBZ.

I don't know about that..I mean when did it turn into full DBZ for you? It full of moments yeah (like Madara and the wood jutsu shit for one.) but I do agree with you though, its WAY more balanced than Bleach.

Don't get me started on [cleaning product]. Keep it the hell out of this thread.

Naruto's been creeping into DBZ territory for a while, true, but in all the good ways. When Pain destroyed Konoha I was wowed and awed. When Naruto learned Destructo Disc I wooted. When he went Sage Mode/Super Saiyan I was pumped.

But all those developments are just battles getting bigger and badder. At no point has a random villain popped up professing enough power to take down someone with as established a reputation as Sasuke or Itachi, let alone both. Heck, Kakashi and Guy are half the battle ticket against Tobi right now.

Kabuto has been around since like chapter 15, has inherited the powers of Orochimaru who was the main villain for a very long time, and gotten Sage powers which kinda makes sense (why would only toads give powers to good guys - snakes can give powers to bad guys, too!), so yeah that works well for an extremely strong enemy actually.

And yeah Bleach is shit, stopped following it at some point.

Toe to toe? from what I remember if it wasn't for the Masked Man Sasuke would've died whilst fighting the Kages

Orochimaru > Kabuto
Sasuke > Orochimaru
Itachi > Entire Uchiha clan
How (Kabutomaru * Sage Mode) vs ((Sasuke + Itachi) * Susanoo) equates to anything less than an ass whooping is beyond me.

Sure Sasuke would've died fighting the Kages, but it doesn't erase the fact that he fought with each of them in sequence before the rescue. That must count for something.
