O_O ..... that's all I have to say... better yet let the pictures say it all... I doh care who say how bad Oro was, or how good other battles were, it's doutbful many save Pain (and perhaps a few other Kage level nin) could have taken on Jaraiya like this and even so, Pain technically is cheating as its 6 of him vs. One. How many other nin in Naruto altogether could take on 6 Kage level nin simultaneously? Listening? who? what? didn't hear ya? Oh on another note I think Jaraiya is @#$%ED... not that we didn't expect that but... it's not often we're treated to seeing Sanin level battles... now we'll have 1 less Sanin to see fight... 2 down... 1 to go...
Well considering he's missing an arm and can no longer perform seals... I think right now he's closer to death... I guess at least he has Ma and Pa, but with his inability to perform much jutsu (no hand seals)... they'll need to perform something akin to what Sasuke put down with the snake... some kinda space/time jutsu to survive... either that or Jaraiya has ONE last trick up his sleeve... an ultimate jutsu as it were (though that 4 frog soul seal seemed like it) I mean... after gaining knowledge about akatsuki members esp like Hidan... yuh would think he'd have completely destroyed the bodies to ensure they couldn't come back...
But if nothing else at least Naruto will get the key, let's just hope he knows what to do with it.
Does he EVER know what to do? *shakes head* our only hope on that front is the fact that he learned kage bushin from a forbidden scroll in a matter or minutes... whether he'll be able to comprehend exactly what that scroll contains... remains to be seen...
Naruto will assimilate the Kyuubi into himself and be able to call upon it without it hurting him.
