Naruto 340

Naruto 340 (Dangerous Bridge)

Chouji wanted to help Naruto, but Yamato stopped him from going close to Naruto, as Chouji will be hit by the jutsu as well. Kakuzu commented that this is the Kyuubi Jinchuuriki’s power and how Naruto's jutsu is monster-like. Naruto charged Kakuzu; when he nearly hit him, his jutsu ended. Kakuzu got a hold of Naruto and tried to take out his heart.

It is a miss and Kakashi said that this sort of thing is to be expected from the no. 1 unpredictable ninja. Yamato and Kakashi went and saved Naruto from Kakuzu's grip. Ino and Chouji discussed his jutsu among themselves. Chouji asked him for a name like Rasen Shuriken, the jutsu should be thrown, and not run and hit the enemy with it. Naruto yelled back and said that it will be awesome if it hits. Yamato explained that even though it is called Rasen Shuriken, it needs to hit directly from zero distance -- like the normal Rasengan. Rasen Shuriken is a close range jutsu. Kagebushin are used as a feint and are the basis of the jutsu. Kakashi said that the time limit for the jutsu is still too short and lasted for few seconds.

Kakuzu reasoned that as long as he does not get close to the jutsu, he will be ok. [The big bad Akatsuki is afraid of Naruto's Rasen Shuriken =)]. Naruto wanted to do the jutsu one more time and he will end the fight with the new jutsu. Ino and Chouji said that the opponent is Akatsuki; if Naruto does the same thing over and over again, he will definitely dodge it! They should fight together. Kakashi said that this is true -- 5 against 1 and there is no need to cross a dangerous bridge.

Naruto still wanted to do this by himself. He asked Kakashi to think back to what he told Naruto during training. Kakashi had said that the only shinobi that can surpass the Fourth Hokage Yondiame is Naruto. Teamwork is important, but at this moment, Naruto wants to cross the dangerous bridge by himself. If he cannot cross the other side, he will stay as a kid forever. [Naruto wants to grow up and does not want to rely on others to save him; he is the only one who can save Sasuke - his best friend.] He pleaded to Kakashi and asked him to not to remove that bridge.

Kakashi asked Yamato for his opinion. Yamato said that Naruto grew up and he is not the Naruto from before. It is decided then and they will let Naruto to handle the fight.

The new jutsu -- there are thoughts for a dream (being Hokage) and the thoughts of a friend (Sasuke). Naruto's two teachers look on and Naruto challenges the Aktasuki once more.

Next week, because of the starting of the new Hurricane Chronicles arc in the anime, the beginning of the next chapter will be in full color -- the results of the training!
