Naruto 459 for real this time. I PROMISE NO BLINKYTEXT
First, a reread with some off the cuff reactions.
~Raikage: "HE'S THE EMBODIMENT OF DARKNESS IN THE NINJA WORLD." *laughs forever. FOREVER*
~You know, despite his whole picking-Danzou thing, I really do like Mifune. He at least ATTEMPTS to use logic. Not his fault Danzou's hacking his brain.
~I really. really. really want to know how other-Mist-nin got his Byakugan.
~Unimportant, but Chojiro's adorable. *squishes*
~Ino's...crying. I just. argh. I can make excuses for Sakura, as she's under a lot of pressure, but INO????? GOD. I want to see Hinata get to SAY SOMETHING AFTER CONFESSING TO NARUTO IN FRONT OF EVERYONE, DAMMIT.
~Shikamaru must feel somewhat responsible for this. Poor guy. *pats*
~Okay, I can see Sai noticing Naruto's sadness when discussing Sasuke, but "a heat coming from his gut?" WTF, KISHI, DON'T FEED THE SLASH SHIPPERS. THEY'RE LIKE SHARKS. ONE DROP OF SUBTEXT IS ALL THEY NEED IN A VAST OCEAN OF SANITY.
Unless said heat is actual tangible real heat burning off his Kyuubi seal, reacting to his rage and grief? WORTH EXPLORING.
~Ugh, Shikamaru, stop perpetuating the Ino travesty. MAYBE SHE'S CRYING FOR SAKURA. (got this idea from mildmay over in redbrunja's post.
~Shiki subscribes to the "chain of vengeance" theory also.
~YES. YES. YES. YEEEEEEEES
THE CLENCHED FIST MEANS THE SHIT HAS HIT THE FAN. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, I GIVE YOU...SAKURA! ASSKICKER OF KONOHA! READY TO ROCK! 8D
~I find the segments where Naruto thinks about Sasuke and wonders sadly where he is SO FRICKING TOUCHING, OMG. ;A; I WANT TO...GIVE HIM A HUG, S-SOB
~"I don't understand you anymore." T_________T and then Keane's "We Might As Well Be Strangers" starts playing in my head. THAT SONG IS SO SAD.
I don't know your thoughts these days
We're strangers in an empty space
I don't understand your heart
It's easier to be apart
(link is the song, just listen, so sad ;_; I THINK I KEEP DOING THESE JUST TO SHOW OFF MY HTML)
~AHAHA SHISUI AAAH *will not use blinkytext. must...resist...*
~So, trufax: SHISUI LOOKS ALMOST EXACTLY LIKE WHAT I PICTURED HAAAAAAAAAAAAA
~His name was Shisui of the Mirage, so why... Why would his specialty be mindhaxxorz, then? I expected something totally different, oh well. I ALSO EXPECTED THAT HE WAS DEAD, SO YEAH.
~Zetsu: CONVENIENTLY ARRIVING JUST AS SUSPICION IS CAST ON DANZOU. ALSO, GIVING ME NIGHTMARES FOREVER. "HELLOOOOOOOOOOO~"
Then DISCUSSION TIEMZ!
OKAY SO DANZOU.
I think that while all the Uchiha were scrambling around threatening Itachi with WE KNOW YOU KILLED SHISUI, SO DON'T DENY IT, BECAUSE WE KNOOOOOOOW YOU DID IT, Danzou snuck into the morgue and freaking looted Shisui's corpse. WHICH IS SERIOUSLY EFFED UP, MAN.
But why? Was he inspired by Kakashi, already making a name for himself as Kakashi of the Shraingan? Did he want to rub his power in Itachi's face, as in "HEY ITACHI LOL IMMA MAKE YOU KILL YOUR CLAN AND RUB YOUR FACE IN THE DEATH OF YOUR BFF AND THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT, HA HA HA" ? Did he just know about Shisui's unique ability and want it for himself in his grab for power, instead of doing it the hard way with old-fashioned charisma?
So he needs Kabuto/Orochimaru's expertise on keeping the dead tissue animated? Or something? Unfortunately, I have a bad feeling that with Zetsu throwing the meeting into chaos by offering them Sasuke, we won't get answers until later. >C
Speaking of, Madara. What's his game? He called Zetsu away from Team Hawk, told them "now," and then Zetsu betrays their location. What does Madara stand to gain from Sasuke's capture? Is Sasuke's capture his real goal? Or does he just want to throw the meeting into chaos so nothing gets done? I don't think he and Danzou are allied at all, I just think the meeting's disruption just happened to coincide with both of their goals at that point in time.
I really hope Sakura's going out there to kick ass. I really do.
Oh, and I wish we get another Itachi flashback soon. G-GOD I MISS HIM SO MUCH ;_;
I promise, this is the last 459 post. I SWEAR.
