Lol, that's the only way Kishi can make up for all these lost romantic opportunities. Naruto will have his own harem.

page9: back to present, nagato's turn to ask naruto
page10: naruto's take on nagato's story
page11: naruto's memories of jiraiya
page12: nagato's memories of jiraiya
page13: naruto's memories again of what his teachers and father has told him
page14: naruto's answer to the question
page15: nagato's and konan's shocked faces on hearing the answer
page16: nagato's and konan's shocked faces on hearing the answer part 2
page17: konan taking off her cloak.
credits

i predict a boring chapter with no fight and all flashback and talk, except at the end, we get to see konan undress. that would redeem the 16 chapters of talk.

Servo

I see where you're going with this. Perhaps if we lower our expectations enough, the forthcoming chapter will seem good by comparison

TheSixthHokage

As much as I like character development, it would have been more satisfying if Naruto just threw a FRS into the Papier-Mache tree...

That would have been quite a sight. Probably would have been like a ticker-tape parade, and it would have saved Konoha the trouble of throwing Naruto one upon his triumphant return

TheSixthHokage

I want to be the first to formally demand Kishimoto makes some Naruto fangirls in Konoha following his epic battle with Nagato... that and I hope this arc concludes before I have grandchildren and have to convert to Scientology by law.

next two chapters it
will be flashbaks plus naruto and nagato

Even after reading binktopia version the chapter remains lame enough for me to make a more detailed prediction.

Nagatos second pain

Konoha shinobi get killed by a massive shinra tensai but he hates the entire leaf for bringing out such shinobi.

Nagato concludes with the words yelled in rage and with tears: Thats my first painfull experience who shaped me, my parents who just were civilians defending their family cold bloody killed by Konoha shinobis.

The sad looking and speaking Naruto comments on this. I understand though I never had any parents and were hated by the whole village for the Kyuubi sealed in me...

Then he gets interupted by the screaming Nagato. HOW!!! can you dare to say you understand me with not even knowing what it means to loose his parents.

In the next panel the still calm and slightly whining Naruto speaks on. You're right, I not truly can understand you but..

A panel with the interested expression of Nagato comes.

... but my best friend, the first person I could call my friend ever and whom I even consider as sort of a brother... He got his entire clan killed by his big brother and he also knows the black hell of loneliness as me...

Nagato interupts again. So what will you tell me now?

...he only thought about revenge like you did but during the time we where Team 7 he forget about his pain and longing for revenge, he realized what you failed to see. He accepted the past and overcome his pain and we had much fun together...

You know what, I all alone as I was with killed parents and an even if I didn't liked her much, abducted from unknown ninjas big sister also forget the pain after I met Konan and my best friend Yahiko, at least for a while... Nagato said in a strange way with mixed emotions.

Next panel the now surprised Naruto asked. Then how did you become like this?

Now Nagoto continues with a painfull voice. Here I will tell you about my second big pain who made me realize what reality is. This was years after we met Jiraya but listen to the story from the begining.

After the event with the murdering of my parents I cried for a few days until all the food remaining was eaten. I was forced to look after and supply me myself. I was just another victim of war, a homeless child with no idea how to continue. I had to search trashcans for food and I a had to beg but no one gave me something..

Flashbacks from small Nagato who fights for surviving.

During that time I met Yahiko and later on Konan. Together we growed to a small group of unpartable friends and were much better in find food. We stole from people if we could and somehow survived. This was a hard time...

Flashbacks of small Yahiko, Nagato and Konan how the go through this.

...until we tried to steal from Jiraya. Instead of the other people who dislodged us he willingly shared his food with us. After we finished he told us how bad war is but that it sometimes is inevitable with our current ninja-system. This was near the end of the second Ninja war and the frontlines moved to out of our region. Then he made all three of us to his students and teached us ways to make it easier to survive. He was like a caring father to us and this was the most enjoyable time we had....

Flashback of the time with Jiraya part 1.

Panel with Naruto who things "same as by me" and says "and what happened then to your friend?"

Later after we were very good shinobies for our young age he said that he must leave now to aid his comerades in the final battle near the Whirlpool Country to end this war and we wanted to assist him. He said we were to young to fight in a war and we shall rebuild as much as possible of our country. It was sad but he convinced us to do so.

Flashback with Jiraya Part 2.

After that we did as he wished and worked to our best. We did pretty good and earned our food with honest work. Then after we all reached the age of around 19 "IT" happened...

Some Flashbacks from them rebuilding Amagakure and then an sudden stop to conclude this chapter.

End of chapter. Next week Yahikos death.

Freakout....Nice perdiction. I can see that being a spot on match. Although I do wish it would go a little faster. It most likly will end with the cliff hanger of Naruto on the brink of his "Answer".

I honestly believe things will get resolved between Nagato and Naruto before Kishi takes us anywhere else. If we do go to another story it will more than likely be the Kage Summit meeting with Raikage. Then there are those nins from Kumogakure that Raikage sent out to look for Sasuke's team.

[QUOTE] Yes A big hand to TSO .. Spectacullar prediction. Keep it up!

The powers that Pain displayed did not belong to the bodyes Of Pain but to Pain himself. When the body that could perform summons was destroyed it was replaced and Pain could still perform the same summons.
