Chapter 423, The Deva Path Pain's Power

It's 7:20 eastern time and it's already out. Seems like it's 4 or 5 hours early but it's welcomed by me.

That was amazing. Kakashi came up with some good plans but they failed non the less. I guess there are a few Akimichi clan members as I think we saw 5 or 6 standing around. The last page can't end the way it seems. Kakashi can't die in a black image.

Sorry it's taken me so long to respond to this chapter, but I only just read it.

I dunno, I think it's possible that Kakashi might be done for. It would be very sad, but maybe I'm just saying that because I feel like no one who's "good" ever dies in Naruto. Of course Asuma is already deaded, but I really can't think of much that would legitimately save Kakashi in his current situation.

It could possibly be a clone of some sort or maybe even a genjutsu or something he casted on Pein even though we haven't seen Kakashi use a genjutsu other than when fighting Sakura and Naruto. If you he's still alive I could expect Yamoto or Shikamaru come to the rescue. Possibly even Gai since we haven't seen him or maybe even his whole team.

Ooh that would be cool, we haven't seen Guy's team in a while. I love Rock Lee lol. however Neji im so-so on, and I'm not such a Ten-Ten fan.

I like all three. I really want to see Neji go all out against somebody other than a clone of himself. Having his Byakugan could be helpful in figuring out the deal with those sticks. He can see chakra so I'm hoping he can enlighten us and Shikamaru can make a plan against it.

Ahhh yes, I forgot that Neji and Hinata can see chakra. That probably would turn a fight against Paine.

I have high hopes. Maybe next chapter will shed some light on Hachiba or Sasuke and Madara since we have no idea what they're up to.
