I’m pretty shocked that this week’s chapter was short, only 13 pages which might seem like a whole lot but to be honest it didn’t really matter that it was short because we got a whole lot of bad ass moments going on.

Right off the get go, we learn a bunch of new things about the Fourth, how did he create his telephoning justu, well we learn that the Second is who created it. We also got a few pages of everyone, it was random given that it almost feels like it was force in their between everything just to add more pages.

Something I’ve talked about a few reviews in the past about Madara stalling and not really doing anything. This chapter left a big question for me, why is he stalling now? Is there something he needs to happen? Maybe he doesn’t want the First to get in the mix to be Obito. So this really raises some questions at least in my respect.

Another thing that sort of found funny was Sasuke’s comment to Naruto telling him he had to hold his power back to match his. So are we to really believe at this point Sasuke has more chakra then Naruto? From day one Naruto has always out matched everyone, even Kakashi when it comes to how much Chakra he had inside of him. I have a few ideas as to what this line could have met.

• Naruto is low on Chakra by trying to shield everyone; remember we haven’t heard from Kurama in a while.
• Sasuke is being an ass about it knowing Naurto is low on Chakra, given he hadn’t really been fighting as hard as Naruto
• We’re to believe in the last 100 chapters that Sasuke has gain more Chakra then Naurto.

The first two I can believe simply because, they make sense to the story. I believe if anything it’s more number 2 just so Sasuke can get at Naruto. Remember we know one of his goals is to kill Naurto. But with that out-of-the-way overall it was a pretty good chapters, I would have to get give it a solid 4 out of 5. Sure there where a few things that I felt could have been better story wise, the chapter was short but it’s all nick picking I’m not gonna do.

Lastly what do you think Sasuke is gonna do? Will this attack combo work to defeat or even slow Obito down? What about Madara? He talk about the Trump Card and yet we haven’t seen it. Was this part of his plan all along for Obtio? And most of all.. did Kakashi die? Makes me wonder what became of that or maybe I missed it. Leave me a comment and let me know what you think.
