Naruto might just learn about Itachi's gift. Zombie Match-Ups.

[TheBlackChidori]

It's been on all our minds for a long while. Kabuto is about to confront Naruto, and we know he has control of the Itachi Zombie. We know that Itachi will have free train-of-thought and not even be under full control with Kabuto's seals.

It seems more likely that the Itachi zombie won't come out to play until Sasuke's around, but not impossible for it to happen here. I don't think Kabuto's final battle is gonna happen anytime soon. He's got too many weapons at his disposal. If anything, Naruto's going to come quietly with Kabuto to confront Madara himself.

How do you see Itachi playing out? I've sort of linked all the zombies to a story they may have.

Deidara Vs, Gaara - Obviously going to have a showdown with the Tsuchikage, but Gaara is going to come into play for the real battle. I see Gaara getting his revenge. Kishimoto wont let Deidara kill him twice, right? But this is debatable since Deidara is now more popular than Naruto himself to fans.

Sasori Vs. Gaara or Sakura - Sakura seems the most likely candidate. Gotta get the girls their screentime. But Sasori might be looking to add to his Kazekage collection, now that the 3rd is destroyed. What better consolation then another sand manipulator?

Kakuzu Vs. Kakashi/Yamato - I don't see Kakuzu playing a big part except to revive Hidan. I can see Kakashi getting a rematch, or even Yamato to bring back memories of Kakuzu Vs. Hashirama. Always been interested in how that went down... And of Kakuzu's meeting Madara, which you know must have happened at some point. Maybe Kakuzu's biggest part will be teaching us more about what happened at the Final Valley?

Hidan Vs. Shikamaru/Kurenai - You know this is going to happen. Shikamaru's protection complex has been hyped up too much, and Kurenai is lacking major screentime, which Kishi seems to be getting back into the support characters again... which is very nice. Possible Shikamaru death here. I also wouldnt be surprised to see Kiba, Shino, and Hinata lend a hand here.

Nagato Vs. Naruto - There can't be another opponent for Nagato. The last remaining Uzamakis. Interested to see what Nagato could actually do without his Rinnegan though. I have no idea what could happen on this one, except for Nagato overcoming his zombification for a minute and doing something to disrupt Gedo.

Itachi Vs. Sasuke/Madara - This is going to be some heartfelt stuff right here. Itachi is the key to almost all the secrets in the Narutoverse. So interested to see him revived.

Jiraiya Vs. Tsunade - I wish.

[mrsticky005]

I think it all depends on Kabuto's plans.

[TheBlackChidori]

Oho, and therein lies the brilliance of his character. He's the only Shinobi whose deception ranks along the lines of legends like Danzo. Nobody knows what the hell he's thinking, ever since he showed us those cards at the Chunin Exams.

-When do you think that will happen? And remember Deidara will fight the Tsuchikage now.. will he kill the tsuchikage or will Deidara's soul get sealed ??
And if that would happen I think gaara would need help by someone, and him joining the fight with the tsuchikage... I can't see that happen.

- Sakura vs Sasori?... I don't think kishimoto would put the same battle over again.. maybe he could fight gaara, yes that would be awesome.

- I think after the battles going on now kabuto might go looking for hidan.. or not since he wasn't that usefull compared to other people.
And kakuzu being ressurected.. I can see his battle ending fast or not being much important, even tought he is strong. He died because he underestimated his oponents.

- Hidan will bite off shikamaru's troath!!! ahahaa >;D

(lol jk..)

- I do believe someone will interrupt nagato's ressurection.
I think he and the other Ame orphans had their part in the story and won't come up again.

- Agreed :p



How about kisame?

[Wooster]

TBC so you think Kabuto will eventually 'join' Naruto's side. Even if to serve is own means. I think that certainly would be quite the interesting storyline. Of course on hope that as soon as Madara is defeated Kabuto turns on Naruto.

I don't if I agree with you that Itachi can't be used. Kabuto comments seem to suggest he can vary the control over the zombies. If Itachi is too resistant goes completely take him over. I can see him using Itachi vs. Naruto though. What better what to piss Sasuke off more than have Naruto defeat Itachi?

Kabuto is quite brilliant after all, and he does want Sasuke.

[Pain_man_who_became_god]

kisame is gone i think for good. cant wait for deidara vs tsuchi. hope the old man bites the clay bomb thats coming for him

[TheBlackChidori]

Kabuto will definitely turn on Madara. He proved that when he led the Konoha ninja to Madara's hideout.

Kisame is doable. Suigetsu still needs a storyline, and Guy still needs an excuse to open the 8th gate.

Totally.. I mean, kabuto will want sasuke and madara will probably not going to give hime that easily.. and then sasuke finding out about being used as a object.. might not take it so easily.


Side note: Guy is not stronger then kisame for many reasons..
When kisame got deafeated by guy, he was a few days without eating/sleeping since he was on an undercovered mission, and he was trying to escape KB and already spent alot of chakra.. so when he fought guy he wasn't at 100%..
Plus guy opening the 8th gate like that... wth.. x.x

Tsuchi gonna get pwnd >;D




..or he would, if it wasn't for plot

[GwynethUchiha]

Not bad but Sasuke might not fight itachi same thing for nagato vs Naruto

[ByakuganAlex]

if Neji doesn't have a fight In the next chapters i might explode and take half of the united states with me.

[Blah.]

This is what I have been saying!
He is the perfect character for a series like this. One of if not the most versatile character in the show.

[Hidden Ninja45]

Ever since the Zombies came into play, i've had no idea where their part of the story was going. I've heard so many theories.

I would love to see Kakuzu and Hidan getting flashbacks. During their Arc, it just felt like they were throw away characters for Shikamaru and Naruto to both grow some. I was really disappointed their backstories were never really told.

yea I know. Kakuzu got 1st hokage's heart. How!? he definately wasn't on 1st kage's level. that's quite a plot hole to me.

[george hyuga]

wait jiraiya was brought back by kabuto?

[lolohwd]

if kabuto could bring back jiraya arguable one of the strongest ninjas eva! it would be epic!!!!!! lol tsunade vs jiraya zombie sama

[george hyuga]

no jiraiya can't be used by kabuto

[lolohwd]

wait why not?

[george hyuga]

b/c he is an awesome character and powerful and it would be a cowardly move by kabuto

[lolohwd]

so bringing back nagato isnt overhaxx?????

itachi nagato is super haxx might as well through in jiraya

[george hyuga]

i'm also against those 2

[Jutsu Junkie]

Tsuchi gonna get pwnd >;D




..or he would, if it wasn't for plot

You think that emo punk can defeat molecular control of matter with a bit of C4? Seriously?

It didn't happen, but when the Tsuchikage gets serious, the shyte will destroy the fan. From what I can tell, he has control over matter. I can see Kishi making him a mobile nanite factory, or something like it. If so, he is uberhaxx. Hell, his bodyguard feared he was going to destroy the island! Molecular weaponry is potentially more terrifying than anything Kishi has shown yet, with the exception of the Dead Demon Seal. If you control matter, explosions mean nothing to you...

[george hyuga]

i agree with justsu

deidara is going down the tsuchikage isn't a kage for nothing
