Okay, just to clear up the confusion, cause I'm seeing different answers everywhere...is it 1 week or 2 that we have to wait for the next chappy?

I do believe we only have a 1 week break. From the latest information i've gathered from trusted..... contacts.


(narutofan posters!)

[Verilance]

This weeks issue available in Japan on Monday is a double issue which means there will be no new Naruto chapter for two weeks

this issue is 37&38 and the next issue is 39 available on the 24? maybe.

we always get the chapter a few days before it is published in Japan lucky us!!!

Okay. Again conflicting info. One person says 1 week, the other says two. Can we get some kind of consensus here?

[Freakazoid]

I really have no idea. =/

[Smiter]

There won't be a new chapter next week, which means we need to wait two weeks before the next one comes out, instead of the usual one week.

460 should be out by Friday 21st. Early spoilers/releases are possible, they usually seem to happen after a break.

Of course, we can always make the wait go by quicker if we make more NaruSaku fanarts/fics.

So this means, We will have a 2 week break at least it would be a double issue right?

Ah, thanks for clearing that up, Smitey

[Freakazoid]

So, it really is a full 2 weeks? Ouch. =/

[Daidoji_Tangen]

Do we actually know yet if that is her decision? We don't know what she wants to tell Naruto. Sure, it looks like she chose Naruto and decided that Sasuke must be stopped (however). But we don't know for sure yet.


Oh, and it looks like Kishi is coming to the end soon. Do you guys think that the Manga could be over soon? Maybe at chapter 500 or so?

In the way, where she doesn't come out and say it, yes. But if she is planning to take the place of Shikamaru, I am doubting she will tell Naruto to not let Sasuke come to harm from Konoha shinobi

[Pite]

No offense but I'm really getting tired of people saying the old ninja rank system excuse as a level of maturity, a lot of people forget it was mainly designed to show clients that wanted to hire ninja depending on the difficulty of the job needed done. Besides by now you should know that Kishi has thrown the ninja rank out the door, we've seen many rouge ninja without rank that could take down many Jounins. I also believe you forgot Naruto saved Kazekage from almost near death, that serves major brownie points and it would better suit Naruto's character because he is the chosen one who will end the old corrupt hatred/revenge Ninja have and enforce a new world wide peaceful solution/laws.

Well anyways back on topic if i had to say who would go with Sakura to talk to Naruto in the Iron Country I would say Sai and Shikamaru. Sai is definitely needed to gain access outside the village since Danzou has temporally taken over and placed Root above Anbu for the time being. I would to Shikamaru also because it's always good to have a genius military/combat strategist around and he could give a good speech with Naruto at the Summit.

It is not me who decides. I'm just saying that in that world it would be next to impossible for Naruto to achive rule over a league of 5 super-power considering that Raikage and Tsuchikage would not submit to his orders, due to his age and rank. Conider the fact it is not as simple to whether he can or cannot fight well. I didn't forget that, but as I can correctly remember it was Sakura and Chiyo who fought against Sasori while Deidara only was running away while Naruto recklessly pursued him and did NOT capture him though he get Gaara's body.

Historically people who were great fighters often did not make great rulers. i.e. Ulysses Hiriam Grant, a Civil War general renown for his victory in Vicksburg and his victory in later series of battles that lead to the surrender of the Northern Viginia Army at Appomatox Courthouse by Gen. Robert E. Lee. But later when he became a president, one could say he was a pretty bad one.

There is a will to change but he does not have the power to do so yet, especially with the Raikage who already considers him a weak persona.

The leader of such alliance should not only be a strong fighter but an able politician who can maneuver in the power politics of the 5 kages. Naruto in that matter is, kinda dull, and personally I would rather have Kakashi who has the insight and metal sharpness out side of battle needed to pull something like this out.

To the second paragraph, I would say that such a party would have hard time finding Naruto's specific location and overall have a hard time entering the Iron Village since the security is at maximum and Naruto only got in there since Kakashi and Yamato are with him.

There's only going to be 1 Friday without a chapter release. At the end of the second week, I.E the next Friday, the next chapter should be released. Like Smiter said, on the 21st we can expect to see it.
It's the same as saying there will be a 1 week hiatus. Hope it helps.

Hexa, Administrator of NF and the one in charge of the famous NF Spoiler Thread and Vered both the ones who know the Japanese sites and get the spoiler information from Nja and Ohana said it would be only a week break.

Which equals two weeks worth of waiting. You are confusing people. I understood what you were saying but it made it seem to others, that we only had to wait for another chapter like usual.

[Hopestar]

About damn time Sakura realize and accepts Naruto's feelings, and she did it with ease. Based on her determination it seems she'll face him as the woman he loves. Obviously thanks to the Akatsuki we'll have to wait 10 - 20 chapters until NS encounter each other.

We know tension will rise between them and one thing will lead to another... and I will stop right there since my assumptions could be wrong and I know want to put too much expectations. Least there's 3 things I know that will most likely happen: Sakura try to relieve Naruto from the promise, she'll inform him that she's aware of his feelings, & Naruto wants an honest answer of hers towards him.

[canis]

Lots of good replies here already

I didn't realize people would give Ino such a hard time... I don't know what she's thinking, but deciding on killing a former crush isn't easy. Maybe she's got another reason though.

Since things have progressed this far, just "getting Sasuke back" would start a load of problems, mainly with the other villages.
If there is another attempt it will probably the last. Seems Naruto is also sitting on needles and is running out of reasons not to view Sasuke as criminal.
In my opinion that was a slow process but we've only seen a small part of it until now.
Be that as it may knowing Shikamaru's efficiency their team will have a good chance of succeeding.

Sasuke... I'm not sure whether he's got a secret plan or really is like a leaf caught in a current. It seems to be the latter...
I wonder what's going through his mind, with his reckless approach of invading the meeting. Sure, Zetsu's entrance (which was creepy and awesome) and the ensueing chaos might work in his favor but we're talking about 5 Kage and 10 bodyguards... (!)

Lastly... They're running out of trustworthy people at the meeting... Danzou screwed up big-time. Raikage has a secret agenda (actually I'm equally cautious of him and Danzou... Seriously what's with "I won't be part of an alliance which will make me reveal my village's plans!")
While Naruto would be a logical candidate, I doubt he'd be accepted. They're not even acknowledging him, it's just "the Kyuubi belongs to Konoha". Before they see him as more than a weapon, it probably won't happen.
Looks like the only thing that could get them to work together is a direct attack by Akatsuki..

[NaruSaku93]

yeah, thanks to akatsuki, we'll have to wait for a couple more chapters until naruto and sakura actually meet up. but when they meet up, sakura is probably going relieve naruto of the promise cause she knows how much he has suffered because of her and acknowledge the feelings that he has for her. and then hopefully, naruto might ask sakura what her feelings are for him or sakura might tell her feelings for him, but i doubt it will happen, but i can dream right?

but yeah, the next couple of chapters should be good and hopefully, the narusaku encounter will happen soon because im DYING to know whats gonna happen next

[catsi563]

Dont think naruto will discuss her feelings at all or at least not at first. Sakuras allready tried telling him that she was worried about him, but he changed the subject rapidly, and when Sai mentioned a similar moment he again cut sai off.

It will take a concerted effort by Sakura to get him to acknowledge those feelings while his promises lay ((to his eyes)) unfulfilled. He does not feel worthy of loving her becaus eof his seeming inability to keep a promise made to her.

Sakura similarly feels equally inadequate to him and his feelings towards her. I think this may be the reason it was such a hammer blow to her the revelation of those feelings. She still feels that alls he does is small and insignifigant, that she has not been able to keep her own promise.

Yamatos speach to her will more then likely come back soon to remind her what she needs to do with regards to Naruto which is feel, feel strongly about him and help him to retian his humanity and not get lost in his promise like he nearly did once before.

yeah, i said i doubt it will happen, but i want it to though and i agree that yamatos speech will remind her what she needs to do

Let me give some points about this issue... it could work for Naruto... but don't forget, Mifune had said in this chapter that the Raikage wasn't chosen because he was too emotional as well... you have mention Kakashi have those type of qualities, however, we aren't sure if he wants that job or not.

I remembered this issue that is very similar in an another story... ever heard of Babar? You know, the children's French book about a small elephant who became king in a young age after saving his jungle from the clever hunter?

Characters Cornilus and Pomphador, whom became Babar's advisors later, had mentioned when Babar returned from the city that he doesn't have enough experience of the jungle after his mother's death. But when the king died due to poison and the hunter started capturing the elephants, it took Babar's quick thinking to save his people and I remember that Babar believed that Cornilus will take the crown because of his experience but they gave it to him. And during his first years as king, Babar was only a kid with no experience whatsoever in politics and diplomacy but as time goes on, he had gain experience.

So something similar like that in this series, it will be a very hard job for Naruto because he doesn't have any experience but I think he can handle it to gain more experience when he becomes Hokage and have people back him up like Kakashi and Yamato as his advisors.

I had to cut out, I ran out of space

So something similar like that in this series, it will be a very hard job for Naruto because he doesn't have any experience but I think he can handle it to gain more experience when he becomes Hokage and have people back him up like Kakashi and Yamato as his advisors.

But one has to notice that Naruto does not have a year to act, but only a few days or weeks. He has a traitor out loose, a organisation hell bent on world domination , and a missing Enka singer slash container. I think that Naruto does have the quick thinking but again the Kages won't bend over to give him the rule as Tsuchikage and Raikage would defy the rule of , in their eyes, in experienced commander, Naruto has never lead anything outside his own Kage Bushins and Konohamaru Co.

To learn he could have the Kage Bushins read volumes upon volumes of books such as the famed "Art of War" if they had it. And using Kakashi and Yamato as advisors would be the thing that would help Naruto, but again it comes down to him as a leader and when it comes to sudden decisions that require immediate action and encompass the actions of the Super Alliance.

Assuming that Naruto becomes the leader, not only would he need to get the Raikage and Tsuchikage to support him but also to get the Jonins of those countries and their allegiance. Then he would need to make a quick decision on what, when and how to do in the matter of Akatsuki and Sasuke, and I don't think that his "soft" approach to Sasuke will pass with those who want his head (Raikage's people).
