Might Guy, The Green Beast, strikes back and kills one of the great Seven Swordsman, Kisame Hoshigaki. Naruto also completes his battle with Kurama and is finally able to gain his new power Chakra Mode.

We start the episode with Naruto talking to Killer Bee as he fist bumps him, while Yamato gets pissed off since he isn’t able to guess what they’re talking about. Naruto then shows both of them what his new power, Chakra Mode, looks like.

At this point, he detects that sword Killer Bee has, has something very sinister within it, Kisame then finds out that he should come out since he’ll get caught. So he opens up and finds a button which opens the door where they are at.

Naruto uses his powers for the first time and goes overboard since he jams his foot on the wall when he smashes Kisame’s body. Killer Bee notices that when he went to hit Kisame, Naruto moved as fast as Minato, but needs more practice since he hasn’t got control of his powers yet.

While Might Guy tries to see his real self while he’s sitting down in front of the waterfall. He opens his eyes and gets a shock that Kisame is his real self, but then realizes that he has woken up from his dream. At this point Guy, elbows Kisame, Leaf Rock Crushing Square on the face which pushes him onto the side of the waterfall.

At this point, Kisame tries to escape by flying away using his shark technique. Here Guy follows using his Eight Inner Gates, as he opens his Sixth Gate of Joy and follows Kisame by jumping up into the sky.

At this point Kisame takes a scroll which contains intel about Naruto’s progression as well as how powerful he has gotten. Guy reaches the place where Kisame is located. Guy tells Kisame that the shark which has the scroll must not be let through. At this point Kisame create multiple number of shark clones to distract Guy.

Here Guy fires balls of fire, called Asakujaku. This starts to hit the shark clones which reduce the number of shark but ultimately it seems as thought Guy wont be able to get all of them. So at this point Guy opens his Seventh Gate of Shock which blows out most sharks.

Guy and Kisame then launch animals at each other, Kisame sends a Super Shark Bomb Jutsu while Guy sends a Hirudora, a dog type animal. Kisame’s jutsu has the ability to absorb chakra, but here it doesn’t work, so Guy was able to kill all the sharks as well as probably killing Kisame also. Here the episode ends.

What a fantastic episode that was. Next week’s Naruto Shippuden 251 episode, we will learn more about Kisame’s past with his peers. Hopefully, we’ll learn how Kisame joined the Akatsuki.

The powerful Rinnegan is finally ready for battle. Naruto is still clueless about what is actually happening as Kabuto and Deidara find the large turtle with Naruto and Killer Bee on them. Kabuto steals Yamato while Onoki fights Deidara, when after a second of getting ready to fight Deidara is taken away.

We start the episode with Naruto carrying on with his S-Class Mission, he is trying to find if the armadillo is either a male or female. At this point Motoi detects that something is coming to get the mobile island, and thus when the snake bits the tail of the turtle it screams out revealing the exact point of where the turtle is located.

Kabuto and Deidara follow the sound, they are also followed by the Onoki and his apprentice. At the point of seeing the massive turtle, Deidara is told by Kabuto to construct a large explosive clay which would flip the turtle over. He does this and the people inside the turtle such as Naruto and Killer Bee all flip over, Naruto then finds out that the armadillo is in fact a male even if he acted like a female.

Kabuto lands on the front of the turtle to find out that Onoki has been following him. He tries to release his Dust Technique, only to find out that he can’t because he might hit the turtle. As Deidara fly’s up, Onoki follows him to get clear so he could use the technique.

The snake holds the turtle tightly at the neck to prevent him from moving. At this point, Motoi, Aoba and Yamato come to see what is going on, while Kurotsuchi is up flying. She spits Corrosion Style: Quicklime Jutsu which she uses and misses, she then uses Water Style: Water Trumpet to make the quicklime liquid to spread it out even further to make Kabuto step on it to capture him. She then sends more quicklime to hold him in place.

Yamato builds a bridge for Aoba to use his abilities. As he goes to do this, Kabuto suddenly leaves his shell by surprise pushing Aoba to the clay and crawls himself to Yamato to capture him whole, he then crawls pretty quickly to enter the nose of the giant snake that holds the neck of the turtle. The snake then disappears, Deidara is also send back as the coffin appears and captured him.

Onoki appears before Aoba and Motoi to find out that Yamato has been captured. We move to where the Tobi is located. Kabuto mentions that using the power of Yamato, Zetsu’s clones as well as his powers will increase. Tobi then mentions that he should do this quickly as he’s left eye is itching for battle. His left eye has changed to a Rinnegan.

What an amazing episode! The preparations for the battle on Tobi’s side are really starting to get ready! Kabuto seems to have an a reason for helping, maybe it’s for something he wants or he wants to sabotage Tobi in some way. We’ll have to see what happens in the next Naruto Shippuden 256.

The Fourth Great Shinobi War finally begins with an exciting ending. The latest Naruto Shippuden 256 delivers an exciting episode to what both the Allied Shinobi force and Tobi and Kabuto’s army will do. The large turtle is transported by Onoki to a safe place. Naruto still does not realize what is happening as Killer Bee and the others are trying to trick him. The Allied Force is put into 5 Squad which they fall into. The Enemy also leave their place to go to war.

The episode starts off as Naruto starts to analyze what is happening. Naruto has now finished the mission he had been given. Sasuke is also shown here as he’s eyes have been now transplanted to give himself Itachi’s eyes. He tells him that the next time he see’s he will be completely different as he’ll be very powerful!

A member of the Intel seems finds out that there is a lot of underground activity, a member of the Hyuga clan uses he’s Byakugan to see that there are almost 100,000 Zetsu Soldiers. They contact HQ with this information.

Naruto is then tricked again by Killer Bee as he’s told to stock some rocks only by using he’s new Chakra Mode! He does this for a while using his Chakra Mode to train as well as being tricked by Killer Bee, so he wouldn’t notice what’s going outside the mobile island.As the large turtle is put near the island. Naruto’s collection of rocks fall on him. Onoki and the other return to Head Quarters.

We return to where Tobi and Kabuto are. Tobi is told by Kabuto to extract information without killing them as they want him to live to help Zetsu’s to get stronger. Tobi notices that Kabuto is using poison which was specially made using the cells from Hashirama to enable him to suppress the Wood Style that Yamato uses. At this point, Yamato can’t move.

The 80,000 Strong members have split into 5 groups. Kankuro, of the Sand Village, has been appointed the captain of the Ambush Unit. Shizune, of the Leaf Village, has been named the captain of the Medical Unit. Inoichi, of the Leaf Village, has been named the captain of the Intel Unit. Ao, has been named to be the support group who are the ‘eyes’.

The main regiment is made up of five units, each specializing in warfare. The First Company: Mid-Range Battle Unit comprised of shinobi who excel in mid-distance combat. Made up mostly of Shinobi who are weapons users.

The Third Company: Intermediate-Range Battle Unit will be stationed to provide support up close and at mid-range. To be part of this unit, one must have speed and physical strength.

The Fourth Company: Long-Range Battle Unit will provide the link with the Intel Unit to support the front lines. They must act as the shield for the support unit behind the lines. The Fifth Company: Special-Range Battle Unit with their specialized ninjitsu and attack tactics.

The captain of the First Company, known as the Raikage’s right-hand man, Darui of the Hidden Cloud. The captain of the Second Company, Kitsuchi of the Hidden Rock. The captain of the Third Company is Kakashi. The captain of the Fifth Company is General Mifune of the Land of Iron, and the captain of the Fourth Company, and the Commander-in-Chief of all the battle units, Gaara the Kazekage.

Kabuto states that they are all ready to go on ahead. Kabuto then releases his Edo Tensei (Impure World Resurrection / Reanimation). He brings forth the former members of the Akatsuki, Itachi, Sasori, Deidara, Kakuzu and Nagato. The previous Jinchuuriki’s, Yugito, Yagura, Roshi, Han, Utakata and Fuu. The former Five Kage’s Second Tsuchikage, Third Raikage, Fourth Kazekage. Explosive Style Gari, the Demon of the Mist, Zabuza. Ice Style Haku, Hanzo of the Salamander, Granny Chiyo of the Sand, Kimimaro of the Kaguya Clan and from the Hidden Lead, Asuma Sarutobi, Dan, Hizashi Hyuga. Also others who had some skills.

Kabuto had also used Yamato, who had cells from Hashirama to help make the Zetsu’s stronger. They are all ready to go to war now. Tobi and Kabuto walk out from their hideout to go to the war. The episode ends here.

What an amazing episode. The battle is right around the corner and Naruto doesn’t even know! This is damn awesome! Some awesome characters have been reintroduced and it’s going to be fantastic! Naruto Shippuden 257 next week will be epic!

Naruto Shippuden 290 once again goes into fillers, but somehow this seems like a pretty good one. We see Naruto, Sakura, Sai and Yamato go into a mission where they notice that a whole village has been murdered. Kabuto appears stating that he’s there to test out and experiment on bringing back the dead with Edo Tensei. We also explore how this village was first burnt down through the eyes of a little girl called Mina and her brother, Leo.

Naruto Shippuden 290 begins as Naruto is ecstatic that he’s getting a mission, Tsunade stops his rejoice because now she tells them that a small nation bordering the Land of Fire has been under attack, the people living there have all been killed, Naruto and Sakura are flabbergasted. Tsunade explains that this location has been a reserved site for sacred use, it’s referred to as The Hole.

Some people suggest that it has hidden treasure, thus leading people to go and find out, Tsunade wishes she could send more people but there’s also been some serious issues regarding the fact that there has been grave robbing and that Hidan’s grave was also disturbed. Naruto and the others head towards the village.

Naruto and Sasuke go their own way, Sai and Yamato go the other. They notice that the village itself is bright and wonderful while the outside is just barren desert type land. Yamato and Sai enter a room where they go down towards the bottom, they notice that such a large space within the village is really unexpected. Plus in that space lies nothing but emptiness.

Sai and Yamato come out when they’re noticed by a few soldiers where they point their swords at Yamato, they ask if they’re the people who had done this to the village, Yamato tells her that they’re from the Leaf who was requested to come to that village and find the culprit. She puts her sword down, and says her sorry, she introduces herself as being the soldiers of the neighboring town.

Shiseru, the girl takes Yamato somewhere else to meet another man, this man asks who they are, Yamato tells him, the man introduces himself as Disanasu, the head of the Hachou Village. Disanasu says that it could be bandits who wants to find the treasure in the village, Yamato asks him what this treasure is, he says that he doesn’t know, only a few people in the village knew.

Sakura and Naruto go the water in front of them, Naruto states that the water he just washed his face with and drank a little tastes great, Sakura mentions that The Hole, sucked up life and energy of everything around it and put it just in one spot which allows for it to explode with vitality.

Out of nowhere a man appears, Naruto quickly notices him as Kabuto and attacks with his Rasengan. It makes such a large sounds travelling to Yamato and Sai. They are probably travelling towards them now. Kabuto states that he’s currently conduction some research, he brings up a large balls of snakes which were originally from Orochimaru, he mentions that the water around is so good that it allows for normal things to be enhanced, allowing for greater multiplication, therefore the snakes are released around the water.

When most of the other snakes disappear, the water ball appears as though it’s a man, Kabuto pulls out a tag with a similar tag to the Edo Tensei tag, he inserts the tag into the persons head that Hidan appears. They are shocked at how Kabuto just brought Hidan back.

Yamato and Sai appear, asking if Kabuto was the one to attack the village, Yamato says that he’s not going to get away, he quickly enables his hand seal pulling a number of ninja’s from coffin like, he pulls out the Edo Tensei trick, Naruto get’s pissed off. Kabuto gets Hidan’s sickle out.

Naruto quickly gets ready with a Rasengan, he goes to attack Hidan and Kabuto, everything is surrounded by water, Kabuto escapes, at the same time doing a hand seal, and releasing it into the water. Naruto and Kabuto fight when a large animal like thing appears. It captures Naruto and takes him towards the bottom of the floor of the river.

Hidan quickly goes to attack Sakura, she tries to back off because she knows that she must not be attacked or cut by the sickle, Yamato pushes Hidan and takes on Hidan from this point. At this point, Kabuto enables his Edo Tensei, but unfortunately it only activates a few people.

The Edo Tensei’s start to attack everyone, Kabuto then takes away the others which did not reanimate. He’s attacked by Sai when Deidara comes in the middle, Sai then draws a large dragon like which is stopped by Deidara’s explosives, they all keep on fighting, Sakura smashes her opponent when she notices that he’s reforming. Naruto goes towards the bottom of the river.

We see a strange machine where it starts to activate or does something. We now see a little girl talking to her elder with another little boy. The man asks why she keeps on doing that tone over and over, she mentions that she heard it from a place. Leo, the boy takes Mina’s painting of Dokku and starts teasing her, the elder tells Leo to stop it.

The elder man asks if they like Dokku, they mention that he’s great and that he’s gotten bigger too. They all start to laugh, they all go to sleep at this point. At the middle of the night, there is a large explosion where the next house is on fire, they both go out to see a ninja’s killing on of their own. Another man tells Mina and Leo to go inside until it’s all over.

The elder man keeps on fighting against the Edo Tensei members, more and more people are being slaughtered by the Edo Tensei which Kabuto has cast, they are also burning everything they can see, the elder is fighting a ninja, he notices that after cutting the Edo Tensei’s arm, it regenerates somehow, Deidara up in the sky is sending out bombs from the sky.

Mina and Leo notice that their house is also on fire, they cannot go anywhere, not even downstairs because the bottom floor is on fire, they can’t jump outside because of the fact that the street seems to be on fire, the fire is spreading quickly, when both Leo and Mina cry, Dokku notices Mina and Leo.

He mentions for them to jump from, they don’t want to when Dokku mentions that they should trust him, she gets convinced when quickly jumps, he catches her and she’s happy, he tells her that she was amazing, Leo jumps too. Dokku takes both of them outside the village where he figures out that there are probably other people that he needs to go and save. He goes when Mina stops him, he mentions that he needs to go and help.

She agrees, as he goes, he comes back to tell them what to do if he doesn’t come back. He mentions that they need to go to Hachou Town and tell them about what had happened. He hugs them and tells them to be brave, this becomes an emotional moment for all of them. Mina jumps as Dokku runs of, Leo notices that she dropped two long silver objects which make a chime sound.

They wait but then realize that they cannot do much, they star walking towards the other Town, when overtime they both get really tired, they are both emotionally tired, they’ve just lost their village and are walking endlessly towards nowhere. Mina looks towards the sunset to notice some people coming their way, she quickly notices that it’s Dokku, she quickly runs towards his as quickly as she can.

Dokku also starts running, he’s currently injured with 3 other children who are helping him. He also starts to run towards Mina as quickly as he cans in his disabled condition, he starts to crawl as his injury gets the better of him, he cannot get any closer to Mina when she jumps to give him the biggest hug she can, they hug it out when Naruto Shippuden 290 ends here.

A crazy and very emotional chapter, very different from what fillers are like in Naruto, the graphics and animation have also been pushed up with this story, it’s a lot better the way it currently is, although it’s a filler, I can’t wait for next week’s Naruto Shippuden 291 episode, where they reach the city, the story continues.

Summer is steadily approaching, it’s slowly getting hotter and hotter, each day. And it’s nearly time to take the much-needed break for a ride just like what the Sensei’s are doing in the amazing image above. They’re all having their much-needed fun and eating as much as they can, until they make the other one pay for all the ordered food.

The artists of this image had created this awesome image of all these fantastic characters just having a good time, as well as eating good food, thus you should check Invince out. They’ve got other awesome artwork which definitely needs your awesome eyes.

Naruto Shippuden 309 filler episode moves onto an old story when Naruto, Shikamaru, Choji and Ino went on a A-Level mission to which they were suppose to kidnap a young boy to bring him back to his homeland. Naruto and the others go on an adventure to which Choji and Naruto have to go through a Food Contest which Choji nearly wins.

Naruto Shippuden 309 begins as Naruto runs towards the enemy and battlefield. He notices something strange, he meets with a couple of people as well as an reanimation, he finds out that the person facing him is a Samurai which he’s previously seen before, he’s name being Tatewaki. Naruto meets him and thus he asks about those two.

We move to the past where Naruto, Shikamaru, Ino and Choji receive an A Level mission to which they have to go a head to get a boy which is found in a castle. The young boy is a lord and thus has to be returned to their homeland as he’s being captured by the castle itself. Yamato is told to keep on eye on them as well as collect suspicious activity.

Deidara and Sasori are talking, they’re met up with Hidan and Kakuzu to which they get their mission to capture a piece of small land to which they can give to a bigger place. Hidan and Kakuzu take the mission to go for the money to get rid of people they want dead. They need to take the land over, not blow it up.

Naruto and the others reach the land, Shikamaru tells them the only safe way to enter the fortified place is to enter a contest, it’s not a battle but in fact a food battle to which it seems like Choji will most likely win. However it seems like Choji cannot win, as they don’t need the larger price. Naruto will change into the young lord when Ino takes him to a safe place.

They enter the 63rd food battle. The first thing they need to get through is bean jam cakes, they all start eating quickly, Naruto doesn’t seem to like what he’s eating, Choji is taking it one by one. Shikamaru and Ino notice the young boy as well as the Samurai. Naruto cleans his plate but can’t seem to be coping. The next meal is Ramen, Naruto is quickly depressed that he’s getting it now.

He looks at the portion which quickly scares him and he can’t seem to eat it since he’s just way to full. Lord Shu is taken away to go for his training. Choji quickly notices he’s competition, Naruto loses this battle as he can’t even get through this round. Naruto tells Choji to do his best, they enter the castle to which they will then do their next challenge.

Lord Shu trains with Tatewaki, he’s going way to hard on him, when a girl appear to tell Tatewaki that he’s training is way to hard. He also tells him that he needs to train, however Shu just says that it won’t change anything as he’s just a captive there. The next challenge begins, they’re told to do their best. The next challenge begins with eating 100 pieces of sushi as quickly as possible. Ino transfers her mind into Shu, he asks to go to the bathroom, Tatewaki follows.

Shu appears, Naruto turns into him, Shikamaru gives the message to Shu. Choji, the woman and the man win and go to the final rounds. Naruto swiftly replaces Lord Shu, he’s asked a few questions but it seems like he’s gotten away with it. Choji’s next challenge is to eat through a bunch of BBQ pork and such. He’s going very quickly with the woman, and the man by he’s side. The woman enables her moves, and so does the man.

Choji’s just going as quickly as he can, they see he’s massive taste for BBQ, Choji’s last mean arrives when Shikamaru stops him using his shadow, the man gets in and Choji gets the second place. Choji would have won, the man gets a house, Choji gets a large gift basket, the woman get a smaller basket. The food contest ends here, Naruto Shippuden 309 also ends here.

A good filler episode, but all these filler episodes are getting somewhat boring, hopefully it’ll get better during next week’s Naruto Shippuden 310, titled “The Fallen Castle”, when the filler continues with Naruto being found, Sasori and Deidara go to the castle to take it over, Shu quickly wants to do something about what’s currently going on.

Naruto Shippuden will be will be giving Kakashi Hatake some much-needed screen time beginning in February 2014! This arc will concentrate on Kakashi’s past and what he had to go through in the ANBU organisation, the arc’s name: “Kakashi: Shadow of the ANBU Black Ops”. Much of it is yet unknown to us, however seeing the promotional art above, we know Hiruzen, Minato Yamato and it seems Itachi (If I’m looking at it correctly) will also be involved. 

I personally can’t wait to see more of the promotional stuff coming out based on this arc, plus it seems that the anime is getting pretty close to the manga, thus this important arc will be required to space manga and anime. Nevertheless, Kakashi’s past has never been discussed in detail, thus such an arc will be a useful one. What do you think, tell me using the comment section below.
