Thread: Und wie es weiter geht..*spoiler*

tobi: ok.time to go.there is no point in staying here anymore.
zetsu: check him out or...?
tobi: hey,hey,still haven't noticed?(he whispers)we are not alone...(pointing at the konoha group)

kakashi: (he is thinkinig)how...it can't be.who is this guy?someone itachi left alive?or even more...a friend of him?but he didn't seem to be sad from the news of his death.then what?

tobi: i see you are confused,kakashi...my friend.don't worry,you will understand but you have to wait..just wait.ok,let's go.ouupps,i forgot.you,boy with the bugs,i would be in debt if you could remove your little bug from my friend.i don't like to be followed...

zetsu: ???what bug???
shino: (he is thinking)how did he figure it out?it is just one bug and i have concealed it as good as it gets,almost undectable.

tobi: so???
shino: ok...
tobi: thx.i owe you,he,he..bye,everyone.
naruto: kakashi-sensei,what do we do now?i don't know what it's happening here but we must find sasuke before it's too late.

kakashi: ok,with itachi dead and sasuke fading,we have no time.if i guess right,this must have been a big battle so there must be some signs of it.everyone,spread and search with everything you can.

naruto makes kage-bunshins,shino orders his bugs,hinata activates her byakugan,kiba rides akamaru and sai paints a big bird.

tobi: i see you are awake at last.
sasuke: (slowly opening his eyes)where am i and ..who the hell are you?
tobi: you have amnesia??i didn't know there was such a side-effect...
sasuke: what are you talking about?

tobi: i was the underling of the guy you fought some days ago,the guy with the explosions.

sasuke: what makes you think i care?
tobi: ohh,don't be so cold..just look at me better,you never know...you maybe find something interesting in me..(activating his sharingan)

sasuke: you...
tobi: i see i cought your attention.i am sure itachi has explained you the situation and you know who i am.so...do you have any questions?

sasuke: you fucking...
tobi: my,my,how angry you are..but i woud suggest you didn't do anything reckless in your state,you can barely stand.

sasuke: ..
tobi: ok,let's change the game,i will do the talking.from what i can see,you have gained much more than just revenge from this fight.am i right?

sasuke: the answer is no,you sick bastard.
tobi: oh,come on,don't lie to me.i can see it...
sasuke: mangekyou,eh?are you fucking retarded?to obtain it you have to kill your best friend.

tobi: who said the opposite?
sasuke: ???

tobi: as you said,you have to kill your best friend to obtain the mangekyou sharingan and then you have to kill your brother to make it eternal.the thing is...itachi is not your brother.

sasuke: bullshit..

tobi: this bloodshed is taking place throughout the entire uchiha history.so,one day,one man had an idea to stop this from happening.he gave his son to another family and he took their son as his own.an exchange,in other words.why?simple.
so that his other son can never find who his brother trully is.that man was your father and that boy was you.

sasuke: what are you..this is..no..(remembering when he complained that his father didn't tell him ''as expected from my son'')

tobi: however,your father didn't tell itachi about this as it was planned.dunno why.perhaps he left it for later,anyways,that's not important.the important was that i knew.so,i used itachi to fulfill my plans which was to completely destroy the uchiha clan so that nobody threatens my power.he was..like a puppet to me.that blessing day he killed his brother without knowing and he left his fake brother alive.in other words,all his dreams of reaching the top was an illusion from the start.he killed his dream with his own hands.honestly,tell me,don't you find me a genius?ha,ha,ha...

SJ = Shonen Jump
MK = Masashi Kishimoto

SJ: There's many rumours regarding Madara being the absolute final villain. Is this true?

MK: Madara being the final villain is yet to be seen and I can't let that information out just yet. But he will play a big part as a villain, that's for sure.

SJ: Now that it's officially known that Yondaime is Naruto's father, will you show more of Minato?

MK: Yes, definitly. I actually wanted to reveal more about Yondaime earlier, but other characters were in development and some fights still had to be dealt with.

SJ: While we're at it... could you please tell us if Minato was the strongest shinobi that ever lived?

MK: Hmmm, it's a tricky question. As far as dead shinobis goes, then yes, he's the strongest. I'd say that Sandaime shares the number one spot with him. As far as living shinobis goes... well, without going into many details I'd have to say no. There's a couple of shinobis whose stronger than him.

SJ: Now that Itachi seems to be dead, what is Kisame going to do now?

MK: Kisame has always come off as a sidevillain whose only purpose is to travel along Itachi. But to my surprise, Kisame has gone from an unpopular character to someone whose more popular than Deidara after the Gai-fight. I won't say too much, but Kisame is a character that wont die anytime soon. I will definitly develop on his character more and possibly make him...

SJ: Make him what?

MK: It's a surprise.

Chapter 396 The Gathering Darkness
Begins with Konoha Shinobi and Madara. Madara disappears while Kakashi looks on horrified.
Kakashi(Thinking):Impossible there should be no one left with the Sharingan other then Itachi and Sasuke
Yamato:Whats wrong Kakashi-sempai you look ill
Kakashi:That man was in possesion of the Sharingan!
Everyone(except Zetsu):!!!!!
Yamato:If thats the case we should go after him immediatly
Naruto:No we have to go after Sasuke you heard that Venus fly trap man....Sasuke is dieing!
White Zetsu: Venus Fly Trap Man!!!!
Black Zetsu:I told you to ignore him
White Zetsu: Don't worry Shinobi of Konoha that man is heading to the same location as Sasuke and your more then welcome to follow him if you can....
Black Zetsu: Get past us that is.
Scene Shifts to Tsunade in the same place she was in when seeing the frog a few chapters ago. Ma toad jumps out of the pond this time
Tsunade: Elder Toad Sage?
Ma:Swimming this far at my age should be out of the question
Ma:For a last request that kid sure was demanding
Tsunade: Last request.....Where is Jiriaya!
Ma:When i left him he was still fighting the guy with the six path ways eye with Pa, but...
Ma:Just by looken at his face before i left....i could tell he wasn't commin back
Tsunade grabs Ma toad by the collar with tears in her eyes
Tsunade:Your lying....he just sent you here to tell me that so i wouldn’t smash his face in for spending extra time on the way back peeping at girls
Ma:Snap out of it the hokage can not be seen in such an emotional fit....if you don't believe me then pretend i didn't say anything
Ma:Right now we have to honor that kid's dying wish....and help to find out the secret of the Six path ways kid!
Tsunade:Six Path Ways, but that means!
Scene changes to Pain and Kannon they are inside the chamber that holds his bodies
Pain:Kannon report what have you discovered with your paper jutsu
Kannon:Madara is on his way to Uchiha Sasuke right now, but...
Kannon:Is it really okay to allow Madara to advance the Sharingan further?
Pain opens a whole in the wall at the back of the chamber and steps through it followed by Kannon....the last two pages are a double page spread of a chamber with a glass flask containing a shriveled body inside. The back wall has the 9 eyes of the hell god statue with the 8th eye clicking open(leaving only the 9th left). Wires and tubing are all over the room and on the left and right side of the wall there are 5 sets of six different bodies(30 bodies in all) plugged into the same storage capsuls as the previous six.
Pain: Do not fear the false King...for no matter how much power a mortal can achieve in this world he will never match up to the power of a....
Pain:God!

ドロンするトビとゼツを追いかけようとするメンバーをカカシが制 止
The Konoha Team attempts to chase Tobi and Zetsu who disappears but are stopped by Kakashi
何故止めると爆発寸前のナルポ、なだめるヒナタ。真剣な表情で思 案するカカシをみて自制するナルポ。
Naruto is about to snap asking why they were stopped. Hinata tries to calm Naruto down. Naruto sees Kakashi's serious face and controls his anger.
しばらくして、サスケを探そうとヤマトが提案。ナルト、ヤマト、 ヒナタ組、キバ、シノ、サクラ組、カカシ、サイ組に
分かれて捜索することに。捜索中、サイが何故止めたかを質問、答 えないカカシ。
After a while Yamato suggests to continue search Sasuke. They decide to split up into groups again and search. While searching, Sai asks Kakashi why he didn't allow them to chase in persuit. Kakashi doesn't answer.
キバがサスケの匂いを感知。で全員集合も戦闘の後はあるが、サス ケの姿もイタチの姿もない。
匂いも残っておらず、これ以上の追跡はムリ。歯軋りするナルトに 皆声を掛けられない。
Kiba senses Sasuke's scent. Everyone gathers to find traces of a battle but find no figures likely to be Itachi or Sasuke. The scent has gone so they decide they cannot chase any longer. Naruto grinds his teeth and no one talks to him.

サスケが瀕死ながら目を覚ます。周りを見渡すがココがどこか分か らない。
そこにトビとゼツが帰還する。誰だと詰問するサスケ。「はじめま して・・・じゃないよね。」面を外すトビ。（素顔は お預け）
「お、お前は・・・」驚愕するサスケ。
Sasuke wakes although he is dying. He looks around but can't figure out where he is. Tobi and Zetsu return there. Sasuke asks who they are.
Tobi takes his mask off and says:
"Its not the first time...Isn't it?"
(Writers Note: I'll leave the face up to when the manga comes out)
Sasuke looks astonished:
"You, you are..."

Kakashi: Why does he have those eyes? Who... is he?
Tobi: What a pity, I have to let you go for now, Konoha.
Zetsu: That jinchuuriki.
Tobi: Quickly now, everything is according to plan.
Naruto: Wait, you in the mask, where's Sasuke?
Tobi: Poor Sasuke.
Naruto: You...!
Kakashi: Naruto, wait.
Naruto chases after Tobi.
Tobi: Bye!
Tobi disappears under their eyes.
Zetsu: It seems Jiraiya is searching for the answer... if you can survive until then.
He disappears into the ground.
Naruto: Damn.
Sakura: They just left like that.
Shino: It's not like I didn't do anything.
Shino: My bug has successfully infiltrated that Akatsuki's leaf.
Shino remembers the moment the insect got into Zetsu's leaf.
Kakashi: Good, Shino! Now that we have a way to track them, we're sure to find Sasuke now!
Kakashi: Alright! Let's continue chase according to Shino's information!
Team Konoha resumes the chase.
Elsewhere...
Kisame: What great destructive power, chibi!
Suigetsu: Heheh, are you afraid?
Kisame: You're much stronger than Zabuza! You've grown up very quickly, but that's it for today.
Karin: Is Sasuke's fight over?
Kisame: If you want to know, go see for yourself!
The end.
