So who'd you place Naruto's odds on JnJing Tobi now?
I had to look around for
quite a while to figure out what the hell you meant by 'JnJing'. I do have a comment to make about the term 'Jesus no Jutsu' before I make my response though: I'd say that
almost all of Kishimoto's characters are designed with varying shades of grey in their character traits/flaws that allow them to be manipulated into opposing roles when presented with particular motivation. I think that when characters connect with each other, they're more able to exploit this relationship. Referring to it as 'JnJing' makes it seems like it's just a hand-waving technique for making bad guys into good guys, rather than finding the common ground between two enemies. The examples that come to mind as the most clear Good, Neutral, & Evil motivations would be Naruto to Nagato, Kisame to Gai, and Obito to Sasuke respectively. Clearly there are other examples like Zabuza, Kabuto, Kurama, etc. but I think that makes my point.
Now, to directly answer your question, I'm assuming that you're referring to Obito, and I don't think that Naruto is going to be involved in the fight against Obito at all. I think that the resolution of this conflict is going to be entirely completed by Gai & Kakashi for reasons I stated earlier - which is to close that arc, and give the older generation some resultion to their strife, and allow the new generation to step into their place.
Dang, Madara is great at twisting people's words. I think I can kinda see where this is going.
What I really want to know is what Madara meant by saying his current sharingan is a spare. If what Obito told Sasuke is true, that eye should be Madara's brothers. If it isn't, it begs the question of why Madara gave it away as it gave him the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.
I referred to this in my earlier post, but let me clarify:
The REAL Madara
gave Nagato the Rinnegan - which he had developed from the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan. He developed the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, because his brother gave up his Sharingan. Because Nagato
currently has both of Madara's Rinnegan eyes, he's got to resort to using a backup, and he's only got one spare Sharingan, so one of his eye sockets is still empty.
As additional references to Madara's connection with Nagato this chapter, we can see that
when Gedo Mazo is first summoned by Nagato,
it rises from under the ground, and implants
Chakra Rods in Nagato's back, just like the
Senju biomatter cables that are running out of Madara's back. Madara also refers to the
Senju Lotus as
"the Mazo." Plus, during the raid on Konoha, there's an explicit reference to
the Uzumaki Clan's chakra strength.
This is clearly the same Lotus that we see later, because
You can see Hashirama and he's exactly the same as
the one seen later that Yamato's sealed next to, with the torso & the eight arms. This supports the idea that I stated about the Gedo Mazo being created from the Senju's biomatter in the form of wood, because that would allow the vessel to be able to contain the chakra of the Biju. It's essentially an artificial body for Jubi, since Jubi's original body is supposed to have been sealed into the moon by the Sage of Six Paths.
The translations was kinda vague on this one line “Take care of… your lower parts?”
Did Obito just ask if he had to sexually pleasure Madara?
Or did he think Madara had old person bowel movement troubles?
Still very interesting chapter, like how Obito still acts like Obito even with half his body gone. And it looks like Madara going to take a long time to break Obito.
Considering mangastream's translation also keeps it... open...
Why yes, that was a part I was also rather...curious about.
If anyone has a raw of the chapter, I'll be more than willing to look it over, and try to figure out what the HELL he was referencing.
Side note:
We know that Madara eventually gets partially restored - at least enough to walk free from the cables before he dies, since he meets Itachi in person.
