naruto 490

[askerian]

1. ["What is Kabuto's motive?"]
Madara: ... Okay you want to join me, good for you, why should I let you?
Kabuto: Let me present my runway models... (in case you forgot their names or something) they can give you more fighting powarz!

2. Kabuto: *creepysexy smirk* and they're not even my full pawn collection.
Madara: (i kind of. you know. doubt your altruism. A bit.) What do you want in return?
Kabuto: u.u Uchiha Sasuke.

It's official, Everyone Wants Sasuke.

kabuto: *i'm a snake! check out my sweet hood :DDDD*
Madara: what for?
Kabuto: I'm just a ninjutsu geek. Knowledge for the sake of knowledge! :D

3. Kabuto: And for that I require... knowledge... of "a young, fragile, living Uchiha."

PEDO VIBES ALERT, PEDO VIBES ALERT. Man, Orochimaru got to his brain but good.

Madara: what if I say no? >__@
Kabuto: I HAVE A BOX.
Madara: -- D: OMIGOD NOT A BOX!!!

Possibilities for the contents of that latest casket:
1) his original body (he's using, um, Obito's at the moment. hey, he IS really old, and bodyswitching... okay that's mostly a fan theory, there's really no Kakashi connection or other foreshadowing for it. XD)
2) his mancrush The first Hokage, but as Sarolynne pointed out, he was already used by Orochimaru so if Kabuto inherited him there's no sense in making it all mysterious.
3) His little brother. :DDDDD *shipping pings*
4) ... some other REALLY POWERFUL AND SCARY person who... uh. who the hell can scare Madara anyway? No one we've seen onscreen.
... oor 5), something silly and over the top like the body of rikudou sennin or some other surprise!backstory! asspull, like the Only Woman He Ever Loved -- wait, that would be Shodai Hokage. XD

4. Kabuto: "You cannot refuse me!"
Mm, creepyvibes.

Madara: you madman... how did you do this?
=> seems to imply it's someone/something dangerous/hard to control/that could actually scare Madara... but...
Kabuto: *mysterious smile* "you can relax, I haven't told a soul."
=> seems to imply the box'd thing is specifically Madara's weakness instead of some random guy who happens to be able to kick his ass. So, his little brother or his real body...

Hmm. *ponders*

5. Madara: ... hehehe. Okay you're a pretty good troll as well, and here I thought you were just a minion, a random barely useful yes-man!
kabuto: >__>
Madara: "You are a shrewd, shrewd man." ... I like shrewd men. "I accept your offer, On one condition."

6. Madara: "we wait until AFTER the war is over before I hand over Sasuke. Until then I won't let you near him. I'll be watching him day and night."

... Hur hur hur.
I keep liking how Madara really doesn't go ooh and aah at Sasuke. He's just a tool. ... in both meanings. XD
Countdown to Kabuto slipping Sasuke a secret message or Sasuke slipping the leash and going 'splodies...

Madara: Well, since that's settled! :D Ah, it's good to make more friends~ *turns to walk away*
Kabuto: *evilsmirking as he follows, muahaha I strong-armed Uchiha Madara into doing my bidding~ i'll give you minion, hahahahaha* *puts Secret Box back in hammerspace*
Madara: *secret sneaky glance back of HATE*

7. oh shiny, a forest full of tall white trees that... look a lot like dinosaur ribcages... Oh hey, a maw. Neat.
Anko: *haz harem* *followin trail of vampirized corpses* man, kabuto can never put his leftovers away properly. Hyuuga-fodder! Scan at 8 o'clock!
Older Neji clone: Naked nubile young men frolicking in hot springs, captain Mitarashi!
Anko: good, good, we're getting close, maybe there'll be time for a visi -- wait, no, I meant two o'clock.
Older Neji Clone: ... ...yes ma'am!

I might have invented part of this exchange. Or I might have got my hands on secret panels that were cut out of the manga by evil editors. Kishimoto's vision shall not be silenced! >__>

8. ~~~~~~~~Hyuuga Vision~~~~~~~~
o-omg Madara and Kabuto walkin out of a weirdass ribcage together! D:
(i suddenly feel the urge to start singing the "secret tunnel" song from Avatar the Last Airbender. Dunno why. >.> )

9. Anko: "Maybe Kabuto led us this way on purpose... so we could discover Madara's hideout!"
dumbass ninja: "But why would he do that if they're on the same side?"

That's the kind of question that contains its own answer. >_____>;;;;
Oh, Kabuto, so backstabbity. X3 Pfft, Madara and Kabuto trying to outbackstab each other. That's gonna be fun.

... I'm trying not to see it as a Battle for Ownership of Sasuke's Sweet Jailbait Ass Eyeballs. I'm not succeeding.

10. Naruto: *staring at the sealthing on the big scroll*

O-OMG CHIBI KYUUBI CARTOONS
KYUUBI CARTOONY ROARFACE
omg
... NYAAAAAAAAAA X3 *SQUISHES*

Okay so when you use the fox's power, its will and hate come along for the ride, we kinda guessed but it's nice to OH GOD BWARHARHAR!KYUUBI SOCUTE.

11. blahblah no matter how strong you are, its hate will AAAAAA TIRED!KYUUBIFLOP *flail flail flail*
So if you can't pull on his powers with a mind devoid of hate then you can't block kyuubi's hate out. (i wonder if it works for other feelings. ... aaaaa i want to write teamwork thiiiiings)
Blahblahblah seal inner workings summary just in case people hadn't put it together blahblahblah

12. ROAAAAR KYUUBI. >E
Some more exposition about how Jiraiya had tried to open the seal a little bit before to get naruto used to it but "that... didn't work out". hello, the department of understatements called~

13. naruto: *kinda sad, nostalgic, haha i was such an idiot kid face* When oro started talking about how he owned Sasuke, I hated him so I went to Kyuubi willingly. But, I also hurt Sakura-chan. So then Yamato kept it suppressed all the time after that, because it's super smart to count on him always being there to fix that little problem and pretending it's never gonna blow up in our faces again instead of finding a way to deal with it. Yamato is such a smart team leader, man~

I really like how Naruto says "you can't help having hatred in your mind during a battle" because it's refreshing that a shounen hero admits to feeling hate at all. also I like "I didn't think I had the strength to keep his mind from taking over" because Naruto being secretly insecure about his abilities is AWWWW.

14. But then Pain killinated Hinata and I kinda forgot about that little resolution, aha um.

OH MY GOD HE STILL REMEMBERS THAT HINATA EXISTS. *shock* *awe* I wonder if the shock of her death is making him unable to concentrate on the rest of that moment. Damn it that plot thread is going to nag at me until it's tied off already. Leaving it dangling like that is just annoying. I hope there's going to be an explanation for that at some point.

"I can't escape the fact that i'm the kyuubi jinchuuriki. it's time for me to stop running."
=> aaaaawww naruto sobrave. T.T

then again he says he's planning to use it against sasuke and if there's one guy naruto could fight all-out without feeling any hatred, it's him. XD

15. naruto: *has a daddy flashback* Brave! okay let's go find an octopus.
killerbee: *writing in notebook*

16. raikage's village is having a war council. Killer bee is... writing lyrics. " then add a little flow, turn it into -ttebayo!" => connection over the distances!!

17. "... nahh, this phrase sucks, yo." =>pffhahaha.
kisasword: *chillin* *in teh council* *while council people counsel raikage about war stuff and secret plans and things* *bwahahaha IM JUST A FACE BUT STILL SMARTER THAN YOU*
Raikage: *RAIKAGE DOES NOT YELL. HIS AWESOME MAKES YOUR EARDRUMS TURN THE VOLUME UP ON THEIR OWN.*

yay, ninja army in three days. *hopes for more old background character cameos*



... I need kyuubi icons. *starts photoshop*
