[Character] Yakushi Kabuto (Part 2)

[Jinchuuriki]

Yeah. I guess we're just arguing about what we agree on! Probably because I'm sleepy. And it's only 8:00 where I am...

Edit:
@Gott

Could you make a new thread for this? I'm feeling way too lazy right now...Or you can do it if ya want, SH :D

I never disagreed about kabuto being a 'deviant doctor' lol. That much is fact.

I was just saying that he can heal, which you agreed to anyway.

But medic nins tend to have some dirty trick up their slave. It could be super-strength, or poison (shizune).

There isn't much/any conflict in what we're saying. That's great lol

@ Sephero Sama

I took the liberty! I always wanted to start a new thread.

Continue the discussion...

[ShatteredHope]

EDIT: my earlier post from the databook thread, as it is relevant:

lol. You know, it is not impossible. Kabuto is able to transplant stuff into himself as he did with Oro. Actually, another one of my far-fetched ideas is that Kabuto can 'create' sharingan. Allow me to explain further:

Oro was able to create various jutsus by experimenting on children. He even integrated a bloodline limit into Yamato. Now, in all likelihood, Kabuto can do the same. He probably has Sasuke's DNA samples or whatever, and he might be able to create/replicate that genome using his medical skills, and then incorporate it into his own body! He may not actually even need a sharingan from Itachi/Kakashi for that.

Like I said earlier, this would be one way to surpass his master: obtaining something his master could not (there are others too IMO)

But don't worry too much yet. Until now, I'm the only one I know who even accepts this as a possibility, and I'm certainly the only one still harboring and defending this lol ;)taken from the Databook thread

Why would he want sharingan if he can obtain the rinnegan if your theory is possible

No, he cannot obtain the rinnegan. Many reasons:

1) He may not know of the rinnegan. Kakashi did not comment on it, and Oro has never mentioned. If Oro knew about it, oro would want it because it is even better suited to oro's objective of learning all the jutsus.

2) Kabuto will have the genetic info for the sharingan from Sasuke, but he can't possibly have info on the rinnegan at present.

3) If Kabuto ever even caught a glimpse of the rinnegan, that would probably be the last pair of eyes he ever sees. The chances of him escaping alive with a Pain body are low (jiraiya died doing so)

4) Plot no jutsu will make sure that there is only one rinnegan wielder.

5) It does not have any significance to his master. With Oro, it was all about the sharingan.

[Namikaze_Naruto]

Isn't the rinnegan well known that it is where ninjutsu was born? Pa toad commented that he thought the rinnegan was only a legend so stories about it must be known to many nins, but you're probably right. Sharingan was Oro's aim so naturally Kabuto would want one too.

[shin_]

Furthermore, who knows if rinnengan is even has anything to do with genes?

[MajinX]

If the shirangan coulda been gained by the same methods of randomly gaining the 1st jutsu then im sure oro woulda tried it 10935910921 times already... while it doesnt stop kubuto from getting one with his own research it means it is very unlikely he is able to.. and if he does i bet it would be a flawed shirangan because the shirangan only works well with a uchiha body which is why oro wanted sasuke's body and not just sasukes eyes.. if he wanted shirangan he coulda killed sasuke and told kabuto to implant the eyes in him. BTW the 1st wood jutsu is not a bloodline so it shouldnt even be compared to the shirangan. Everytime the jutsu was mentioned it was called a unique jutsu and so far only the 1st had the ability to use it. besides his clone yamato.

That is why I said that this was a means to surpass Oro.

The only problem with a non-Uchiha body sharingan-wielder is that the person tires easily, and cannot voluntarily deactivate it. And actually, if Kabuto does 'create' the sharingan through his own jutsus, it is possible that it may not have the same effects on his body.

Besides, if Kabuto can enhance cellular regeneration, he can go further and alter his physiology, giving himself greater stamina, strength, speed, and what not. The simple fact is that kabuto has not reached his full potential. Only when he does shall we see what he is indeed capable of.

BTW the 1st wood jutsu is not a bloodline so it shouldnt even be compared to the shirangan. Everytime the jutsu was mentioned it was called a unique jutsu and so far only the 1st had the ability to use it. besides his clone yamato.

So if it can be done with a secret jutsu, then it can certainly be done with a simple KG, right?

I think its a Kekkei Genkai , only that very recesive. Cos i dont think is such chakra Mastery and sensitivity that allows to mold Water & Earth in to Create Mokuton. cos if that where the case, Medical Nins and other shinobi could have done it. In other words why bother getting his DNA

[yokowolf]

But why wouldnt Kabuto need some dna to form the jutsu or something of the shirangan to use. I dont think Kekkie Genkai or what ever you ment.

[Shinsen]

Because if he´s test subjects survive the Injection of the Uchiha DNA they would have the Sharingan in theory.

It appears that 1 out of 100 Subjects would accept the Genes injection, confirmind the norm that it cant be done, by the loss rate of success. such is the case of Tenzo / Yamato

[Rychan]

What if Kabuto dug up Obitos dead body (or another dead Uchiha).. lol? if his eye and body arent fully decomposed it could sure be possible. But what im wondering, is that if Sharingan and Byakugan are evolutions of the Rinnengan shouldn't they be more powerful?

The Rinnegan only come once every 100 generation or something like that. Everyone thought that it was only a legend. The sharingan and Byakugan have their own strengths and weakness but the original might still be stronger.

[Jinchuuriki]

There was never a timeline given on how often the Rinnegan appears within a person. And only two people have ever been confirmed having it, Nagato and Rikudo Sennin.

[crimsonrose]

Legends are always exaggerated. Im 100% convinced that there was a clan back in the days who used the rinnegan as their bloodline doujutsu and rikudou sennin killed them all off... Then all his kids didnt have the ability to awaken the power of the rinnegan until Nagato... Who awakened his rinnegan when he first killed. Thats my theory...

Anyway sharingan and Byakugan did not evolve from rinnegan, if they were then theyd reflect and have something in common with rinnegans ability... It was the sharingan that was "believed" to have its roots in the hyuuga clan...

[Ozaffer]

J-Man says that it is the doujutsu that the sharingan and Byakugan originated from. and yes It is the sharingan that is "believed" to have its roots in the hyuuga clan.

[Gottheim]

J-Man says that it is the doujutsu that the sharingan and Byakugan originated from.You gonna have a tough time proving this one. Rikudou Sennin is the founder of ninjutsu. That's the only thing Jiraiya ever said. It was never stated or even implied that rin'negan gave birth to the other doujutsu.

It is the sharingan that is "believed" to have its roots in the hyuuga clan.That part I can agree with.

Now, a question: why would Kabuto bother to steal sharingan or whatever? His master dedicated years of his life to it, and look where it landed him. Right now, Kabuto is seeking to surpass Oro, not to become a carbon-copy of him. Kabuto seeking to acquire sharingan or any form of doujutsu would be lame, and make him a boring and irrelevant character.

Oro wanted sharingan because of the knowledge it would procure him. Kabuto never said what his purpose in life was, besides avenging Orochimaru and fighting Naruto. I see no reason for him to seek that kind of power.

[Ozaffer]

your right about that I thought it was said here: http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/373/03/
Thought for sure it said somewhere it was the original doujutsu but I guess not.

[Shinsen]

Kabuto will have the White Serpent, taking it to another level. I think he might find a way of Completly exceeding Tsunade and her skill of storing chakra and Creating cell not Regenerating them as she did. perhaps without the Side effects.

Another thing in the Manga, in the Chunin Exams, Kabuto had Red eyes and Spoke of an Acient Blood, I belive this will come at hand for him. I belived he was a Jinchiruki, but the Plot proved me wrong.
I think he has some sort of Ability that has nothing to do with his medical Skills. Another Extint Clan or (Lame) Demon that its not a Bijuu, lets hope not Tengu HAHAHAHA

[Gottheim]

Another thing in the manga, in the Chuunin Exams, Kabuto had red eyes and spoke of an Ancient Blood, I believe this will come at hand for him.Do you have a manga link to those moments? Cause it's not the first time I hear about that, but I never saw it and that's getting kinda irksome. So can you pick up the relevant pages in the for me (and everyone else)? Not doubting you, just asking a favor.

I think he has some sort of ability that has nothing to do with his medical skills.We know of at least one ability he has that is not related to his medical skills: he has total control over his cell regeneration speed. That's what he used to survive Naruto's point-blank rasengan. And the reason Oro picked him as an assistant, even before his skills as a healer.

Another extinct clan or (Lame) Demon that its not a Bijuu, lets hope not Tengu HAHAHAHAOr simply an ability exclusive to him, like Hashirama's Mokuton. All abilities don't necessarily come from clans. Sometimes, there are "accidents". The Third Kazekage was another one of those.

[WraithX959]

^

The Third Kazekage's Iron Sand wasn't technically an accident. He purposefully developed the ability based on the Hidden Sand's previous Shukaku Jinchuuriki's ability to manipulate sand. It's considered a kekkei genkai because only he could do it. Whether or not his bloodline/genetics had some involvement in this is debatable.

http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/63/12/

I think this is what he was talking about. It might show he has hidden power other then his healing techniques.

But I think it's showing his killer intent like Oro (notice the Rain ninja seem to get frozen like saskue and sakura). Also Saskue notice's something strange about him like, he just gave those guys the same look Oro gave me awhile ago.

That seems to be the most likely case...

Even Kabuto wouldn't be able to keep his cool being battered around by some lowly Genin. Had Team 7 not been there, those ninja would have been killed mercilessly.

[Bright_Shadows]

Mm...

If Orochimaru's body were to take over, it shouldn't cause Oro to come out, correct? It would just give Kabuto Oro's body, I think...

If we're talking Orosuke level power-ups from integrating Orochimaru's body, Kabuto is going to be insane... No wings, but still... The speed, snake jutsu, and chakra scalpels are quite uber by themselves...

[Shinsen]

Discard what i said
i Have Found the Page i was refering to, dont know why I remembered it like him having red eyes completly.

http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/66/06/

sorry for the commotion

[Yakushi~Kabuto]

Who believes like me that Kabuto will be the final villain?
I've been claiming that for 5 years.

[breadandbutter]

What can I say about Oro’s lapdog j/k. Kabuto a very intresting character does a lot of things that would confuse a lot of us. They make no sense , he heals Hinata in the chunin exams then he heals Sakura in the retrieve Gaara Arc, steals sasukes body just to please Orochimaru (yuk) and on top of all that at he desperately trying to be like him by….get this infusing himself with Oro’s dna. You tell me…. that’s one crazy animal. (hope I wasn’t to harsh)

[Kushina]

So Kabuto knows about some link between Orochimaru and Danzou? Interesting. He also could have knowledge that could heal Danzou's arm and eye.

Danzou also wants to get to him before Anko does. What could Anko do to Kabuto?

It seems like Kabutomaru will become a player now.

[rockmyheart]

Now Kabuto is at risk cos two people are hunting for him: Anko and Danzo. I hope Anko will catch him before Danzo, so he may reveal Anko some thing about Danzo's connection with Orochimaru :D

[Decorus]

Actually at the time of the Chunin exam Kabuto still secretly worked for Sasori. Hence Orochimaru's mind games about killing Sasuke...

Anko seems to be after Kabuto to get proof of Danzou's relationship with Orochimaru that dates back to the time when Anko was still an underling of Orochimaru. Something tells me that Hanzo is not the only dirty laundry that Danzou keeps sweeping under the rug...

[me-wuv-manga]

Enough with the merging corpses,dna,stealing body parts.
RAWR Does any1 of u know Patience no jutsu we'll just wait and see

[Opportunist]

I see kabuto as a rat, he will happily give up the info, she's that kinda villian who likes to reveal to you the missing connection you should've seen all along, but i see him finding out danzou is away, sneaking back into the village and healing Tsundae to change things back over....Danzou in power is not a good thing and i think he knows that

[Dragonian]

We don't know what is the connection between Danzo and Orochimaru or even if there had been any connection at all.Orochimaru's experiments and regenerative powers were well known to everyone especially in Konoha.

From what we know so far there is no motive for Kabuto to offer any kind of help to Danzo.Kabuto is interested in 2 things :
1.Kill Sasuke
2.Overthrowing the Akatsuki
Now if Danzo will offer to help and fulfill one of these 2 goals then Kabuto might give him a hand otherwise i see many dead black ops in the horizon.Anyway infos about Sasuke is probably the most likely thing to do atm,considering the fact that he is officialy proclaimed a missing-nin.

[fire knight]

that **** kabuto, if he's really back he will got his *** get kicked really hard by naruto, because he's very annoyed to him. I remembered in part 1 when naruto first learned rasengan he beat up naruto in front of tsunade while he said to him he's just ordinary ninja without any talent like sasuke and he's got whooped with rasengan. The only ninja that can make kabuto look very bad is naruto, I think it will happen again, naruto had became so strong right now and he will kick kabuto's **** with rasenshuriken just like he did before with rasengan. :thumbup:

[Kushina]

Yeah, the only thing Danzou could offer Kabuto that would interest him is Sasuke's head.

Unless Daznou was crazy enough to offer Kabuto safe harbor to continue Orochimaru's experiments in Danzou's Konoha.

[wind27382]

who knows but there must be a connection between danzo and orchi, because he took sai into his ranks without a second question when he heard he was sent by danzo. Who knows maybe before pein attacked Danzo really was planning a revolt and wanted Orchi's help.

[Mr. Host]

Yep he wanted Oro to f the village up so he could take over, he might have helped him during the chunin exams too

[Decorus]

That was a ploy to get Sai close enough to kill Sasuke Danzou had no intentions of going thru with it. How ever Orochimaru was quite interested in Sai's proposal once Danzou's name was mentioned.

http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/297/02/
http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/305/12/

Sai wouldn't have been able to betray Danzou because of the seal on his tongue so his first conversation was an obvious lie.

You do realise when naruto 'whooped' kabuto he would of actualled died if it wasn't for the fox or tsunade kabuto cut veins going to the heart i belive? and he carried on fighting after naruto done well to hit kabuto with the rasengen yes but dont get it mixed up

[Decorus]

Actually Naruto almost killed Kabuto with that attack. Tsunade had to repair Naruto's heart which Kabuto had shredded. Naruto on the other hand pretty much turned most of Kabuto's internal organs into paste. Kabuto expended all of his remaining chakra healing those injuries.

oh man, I was just thinking if Kabuto confront Naruto and tell Naruto he can heal Tsunade but in exchange want Naruto's help killing Sasuke. I don't think Naruto has been forced to choose like that so far. it's been foreshadowed by Itachi that Naruto may have to choose between Sasuke and the village. it'd be great to see it happen soon.

[Kinjo the Wanderer]

I wanna see how Kabuto looks right now--last time we saw him he was already 30% Orochimaru! If Oro's body is taking Kabuto's body over like that--we might be looking at something surprising.

I don't think Kabuto will be taken over by Orochimaru. at most, it will be temporary. and I doubt it's Orochimaru's mind (the one that got owned by Itachi).

Last we saw Kabuto, he made a promise that he will overcome this curse/disease/possession and become his own man. free from Orochimaru. you don't make a statement like that in Naruto manga without it meaning something. I don't see him died as a pawn either by Danzo or Orochimaru.

I'm all for opinions and comments. I tend to go overboard a bit, but i don't dismiss manga fact......

1. I think working with orochimaru makes you Arrogant and Kabuto is more Arrogant then Sasuke.....Kabuto in every situation where he could win, was trumped b/c he overestimates the person he's fighting except for kakashi..... Let's not forget, that battle.....Kabuto took on the 5th Hokage, Shizune and Naruto and beat them all.....He over estimated naruto b/c he didn't know about the Rasengan and b/c kabuto is a genius and a smart fighter....I give him that fight, cause he left walking, naruto if it wasn't for Tsundae would be dead after all. This a manga called naruto so him dying is unlikely.... Everyone naruto used the Rasengan on was defeated, Except KABUTO. Let's try and remember that.



oh man, I was just thinking if Kabuto confront Naruto and tell Naruto he can heal Tsunade but in exchange want Naruto's help killing Sasuke. I don't think Naruto has been forced to choose like that so far. it's been foreshadowed by Itachi that Naruto may have to choose between Sasuke and the village. it'd be great to see it happen soon.

I think everyone underestimates Kabuto so much they will be disappointed in the end if he's left standing.....He would make a top Anbu nin if he were to ever go back to konoha. One, he doesn't need naruto to beat Sasuke, kabuto has always been right about sasuke being an just an average shinobi...Compared to kabuto, sasuke's arrogance is not that high, kabuto has years on sasuke on top of that, he's a medical nin....He's a survivor. If it came to a battle, I would have to give it to kabuto, and we have yet to see his KKG, i think kishi is holding out on us. After all, it is what kishi does......Orochimaru hinted at it and kabuto admitted it, he's a top level fighter, but rather opts out of a battle. He's Lazy and Arrogant and its why he gets pawned a lot. but don't sleep on the man, he kicked narutos butt once already.

[Kinjo the Wanderer]

@callibretto

I will agree that it will still be Kabuto's mind in there--as far as i can recall Kabuto grafted Oro's (fore)arm only--no brain matter was transferred. The body though might become totally Oro-like in terms of Physiology--unless as you said--Kabuto found a way to counter it.

Though basing on Kabuto being on the run at the time Yamato, Sai and Anko was chasing him--he might not have had enough time or resources at his disposal (yet) then to fix his problem yet.

I'm with u, oro's soul is not part of the body, the body seems to be senitent in nature and oro controlled it that way, when ever we saw oro and his body, it did seem to have a mind of its own at times and that is what i thought kabuto meant when he said, he's not going to let oro's body take him over, instead of saying he's not going to let oro take him over. After all we do know, kabuto at one point wanted to give his body to orochimaru....
Also, i think its a mind over matter deal. Didn't kabuto says something about the cells of oro's body. i mean, kabuto is not stupid, there are advantages to the body oro had so i guess that's why he wanted it.

Kabuto is totally crazy after Orochimaru's supposed death by Sasuke. for him, Orochimaru is his anchor/purpose similar to Haku/Zabuza relation. he said it himself. he felt lost. enough to put Orochimaru's remains on his body.

only after he realized the remain is starting to overtake him and probably losing his mind soon that he reminded of Naruto's determination and now want to overcome Orochimaru's remain by being stronger than Orochimaru so he can control it.

so yeah, Kabuto is not stupid, but taking Orochimaru remain to himself is done in desperation and he's definitely not thinking straight at that moment.

[defk3000]

http://www.onemanga.com/Naruto/455/01/

I think Danzo has finally captured Kabuto and that's how Danzo's eye and arm were fixed to appear in this chapter. Technically then that means Oro's has returned to Konaha.

Well that could be interesting, but its not the case, i suppose..

Kabuchimaru or kabuto's gonna get quite powerful with oro's parts i think

[JMuth561]

Kabuto's gonna get locked up soon. There he'll laugh himself to sleep every night in his nice, padded hospital room.

[Kinjo the Wanderer]

Fat chance--Kabuto is a lot more crafty than you give him credit for. He's evaded capture for the longest time since Oro's been killed and still nobody's got him.

[Shinsen]

Kabuto is indeed crafty, smart and agile.

I also believe the tissues he implanted on himself are not part of Orochimaru`s soul.

Orochimaru is at Totsuka sword or scaped in one of the white snakes (I wont get in to that)

but if Kabuto is going to do all that Orochimaru couldnt and more. maybe even perfect his Furou Fushi no Jutsu (soul transfer Jutsu) to not being limited to certain time on the body or rejection from the host.

And although lame... he would probably get the Sharingan... I think Danzou`s eye wich is Shisui`s.

[kooblican]

Right now i think that kabuto is the coolest!!!
hes a character whos on his own
huge potential for growth
merged with one of the most powerful ninja ever

[Kabutomaru2]

he has already surpassed oro thats scary.. possibly the ultimate villain.. after mandara gets beaten

[Sasuke_1134]

I don't think Kabuto would be the ultimate villain...:/ ... I think it would be Madara...

[NightShroud]

I agree , I see kabuto more as a subvillain . he's like the guy who just shows up for no reason struggles with the hero and then escapes for a next time .

[Opportunist]

he has already surpassed oro thats scary.. possibly the ultimate villain.. after mandara gets beaten

How has he surpassed orochimaru ? All he did was merge with orochimaru's sentient body. Kabuto was always badass, he just looked up to orochimaru was some uber being. That's his thing.

[Konoha'sYellowFlash]

How has he surpassed orochimaru ? All he did was merge with orochimaru's sentient body. Kabuto was always badass, he just looked up to orochimaru was some uber being. That's his thing.

he had surpassed Oro, he may have looked so foolish to following him, but if you'll analyze what he is capable to do, he's much, much better than Oro.

[Opportunist]

We can't Gauge Oro. B/c unlike J-man, Orochimaru wasnt using a bunch of jutsus here and there. IN the medical-nin department, he has surpassed him. but he's still 2nd to orochimaru. Kabuto has a long way to go. Kabuto is badA$$ dont' get me wrong, still not on orochimaru's lvl. but I'd like to see his KKG first. I truly want to see a time skip badly. everyone go away and come back more powerful and independent. I doubt he's gonna carry out his obsession to avenge oro since he's gonna come back

[narutohellking23]

He probally Oro transformed version by now

[Loafers]

Kabuto will definitely play a huge role in the future.

He is among one of the oldest and mysterious (if not the oldest) villains introduced in the manga that is still living, which really says something about him. Furthermore, we have yet to see him fight with complete seriousness and full strength. Heck we still haven't even seen his true power as suggested during the chuunin exams, not even when he was seriously injured. Plus, Danzou and Leaf are trying to capture him, which says something about his knowledge and abilities.

Kishi definitely has plans for this guy cuz there is no way he would go this far to develop his character and have him die suddenly on us.

I can't wait to see more of him!

[Skyguy]

maybe kishi will just give up on kabutos character and let kabuto kill himself
its not like its not possible
kabuto seems pritty F*kd up in the mind right now
he could try to take the easy way out and kill himself rather than get taken over by orochimaru

Kabuto will definitely play a huge role in the future.

He is among one of the oldest and mysterious (if not the oldest) villains introduced in the manga that is still living, which really says something about him. Furthermore, we have yet to see him fight with complete seriousness and full strength. Heck we still haven't even seen his true power as suggested during the chuunin exams, not even when he was seriously injured. Plus, Danzou and Leaf are trying to capture him, which says something about his knowledge and abilities.

Kishi definitely has plans for this guy cuz there is no way he would go this far to develop his character and have him die suddenly on us.

I can't wait to see more of him!

I think he will play a role like Gollum in Lord of the Rings. A somewhat degenerated creature whose time is over appearing at the most crucial moment and either spoiling or unintentionally saving an event far bigger than himself.

That said I also wish to see more of him because Orochimaru was the best villain ever.

[Loafers]

maybe kishi will just give up on kabutos character and let kabuto kill himself
its not like its not possible
kabuto seems pritty F*kd up in the mind right now
he could try to take the easy way out and kill himself rather than get taken over by orochimaru

Why do you want him dead lol? I don't think he's gone loco. His resolution is just stronger than before: to become stronger than oro. Whereas before he was just wandering aimlessly in the shadows of oro.

That said I also wish to see more of him because Orochimaru was the best villain ever.

Agreed.

did i say i wanted him to die?
my comment was a possibilty of thing yet to come
who knows if itl happen or not

[Kinjo the Wanderer]

His importance in the story is that he has so much info on a lot of important things that getting him and making him cough is on the top of a whole lot of people's lists. That's why even if he doesn't fight, he's still an important catalyst in the story.

[Graeystone]

I don't think Kabuto would be the ultimate villain...:/ ... I think it would be Madara...

Madara is 'cookie cutter take over the world' villain.

Kabuto is the kind of villain who still pulls the wing off of insects or set small animals on fire just to see their reaction.

I think the reason why he saved Hinata was not for benevolent reasons. Maybe those 'data cards' showed something about her feelings for Naruto and Kabuto wants to see how far 'dead last'(Naruto) and 'weak'(Hinata) will get.(Not really pushing a pairing, just saying Kabuto wants to see how far they get given what is/was said about them.)

I knew it!!! Kabuto is a Naru/Hina Fan. No wonder he was always laughing at Sakura.

Explains alot.

I don't think he's a shipper in a good way.:jawdrop:

[Atelopus]

It's possible to be a shipper in a good way?

[dio4915]

Well it looks like who ever is in charge of the mindof Kabuto is gaining control of the powers of Oro and Kabuto the combined strength of the two should be formidable.

It also seems both eyes are now like Oro's I wonder if that means the transformation included personalty, is it Oro, Kabuto or a new combination of both.

Seems like it's Kabuto who's in control. "I'm getting used to these powers..." (Orochimaru's powers). If it was Orochimaru he wouldn't say that.

I wonder why he was in Takigakure, maybe it's apart of some plan. Seems like he was just training his powers though.

Sorry, which of the villages is that?

[Yoshimo Izoto]

Sorry, which of the villages is that?

The Village Hidden in the Waterfall. It's a minor village in between the Fire and Earth countries I think. It's where Kakuzu hailed from.

I would totally give leafninja.com a run and check their world map. It's colored dark blue on the world map I think.

[Masamune]

Speaking of Kakuzu, the secret jutsu he stole, was it the only copy?

[dio4915]

It could have been the reawakened Oro was trying to get used to a new fused body. I don't know if that is true one or another there is not information. It is just good to see he will be part of the story now. I just hope he does not rejoin Akatsuki.

[Yoshimo Izoto]

Speaking of Kakuzu, the secret jutsu he stole, was it the only copy?

I don't know... It sounds like some higher-up hidden thing of Taki. It would suck if Kabuto was there for that. Essentially he's Kabuto + Orochimaru.... Kabuto was very much an equivalent to Kakashi, this was before Kamui though... All elements Kabutomaru sounds kinda over kill.

[Tsuiga]

I think that he certainly won't, but somehow I've no doubt that Madara will try and negotiate with him. :S

[dio4915]

If Madara is still allied with Sasuke I do not think even Negotiations will go down well. Kabuto blamed Sasuke for Oro's incapacitation and I think any of the possible iterations of KabutOro will hate Sasuke and will be seeking to kill him.

[Hadz-x]

Man, I'm so glad he's back! And he looks more demented than ever! I can't wait to see what he has planned

[Graeystone]

WTF Mangastream! Think it's time they upgraded their equipment to handle more traffic.

[Hadz-x]

WTF Mangastream! Think it's time they upgraded their equipment to handle more traffic.

I had to refresh each page about 8 times to read it. It took me a grand total of half an hour to get through the whole thing xD

Patience is a virtue :D

[dio4915]

I was alreay on it so I saw it when it first came out before the mad dash happened.:P

I liked Kabuto's look he wears the black cloak well and his cracked up eyes look wicked.

[Yoshimo Izoto]

Here's how thats wrong. We know Kabuto got "infected" by Orochimaru and that his cells were taken over. We also know that Kabuto vowed to master Orochimaru's powers and return and fight Naruto. So in context of the grammar used in the manga, it's Kabuto.

He said how strong the invading cells were, I am not wrong it was trying to take him over and he did not know if he could supress the taking over by Oro's cells. So how am I wrong did Kabuto say hi I am Kabuto? No, he did not disagreeing with me is fine, saying I am wrong with no proof other than supposition not so much.

[Masamune]

http://mangastream.com/read/naruto/487-75/18

At the bottom left, it says "Kabuto...". So, it could mean this really is Kabuto, or Kishi doesn't want to give away the fact that Orochimaru has returned. Personally, I think its Kabuto.

[RandomRider]

He'll be dead within four chapters of fighting, at least.

[gummyworms]

So thats what the new hybrid face looks like. Hopefully he doesnt become target practice for Sasuke's EMS.

[TaoPai]

yea thats kabuto and he works with madara xD

[Lightz]

Well seeing that Sasuke will be Naruto's prize. Kabuto will probably become fodder for Sasuke's EMS power up. Kabuto's revenge for Oro will be fail.

[Graeystone]

I don't see it. Kabuto is fixated on Naruto for some sick reason. If Kabuoro is with Akatsuki, I think he'll stab Madara in the back at some point.

There's also the unanswered question about why Kabuto saved Hinata before the Orochimaru invasion started.

[Croc Sensei]

Kabuto probably joined Madara because he knows Akatsuki is going after Naruto. He'll betray them somehow

[dio4915]

Kabuto would not join Akatsuki he hates Sasuke and would do pretty much anything to kill him. Also if he was planning on joining he would not have given Naruto info on Akatsuki back before the Itachi fight.

[Masamune]

Does Kabuto, or even Orochimaru, know that Madara exists? Sure, Orochimaru was apart of Akatsuki at some point, but "Tobi" only joined/showed himself recently.

[Skyguy]

why is kabuto attacking the waterfall ninja villiage?

[ajh77]

why is kabuto attacking the waterfall ninja villiage?For the lulz? Maybe it's to test his powers out. :shrug:

Kabuto did look epic for someone who is going to get pwned just to hype Naruto up some more. :awesome:

[dio4915]

why is kabuto attacking the waterfall ninja villiage?

It was guessed that he was after Kakuzu's immortality jutsu.

I don't know for sure but it is good to see the Oro lover again.

He isn't beating them up he is giving them tentacle love. :eek:


I don't think that Kabuto is just going to be fodder for Naruto I think he still has a chance to be a real villian and give better than he gets for a while. Inuendo intended.:D

[kwajasab]

Its interesting Kabuto attacked the Waterfall Village because the Waterfall Village gave their jinchuuriki Fuu (Seven-Tails) over to Akatsuki. I think this was stated in one of the data books, I am looking for citation right now. But if this is the case, it makes him all the more respectable.

[cakefreak]

what a tool

[Soccerguy951]

I hope Naruto is the one to take Kabuto down and not Sauske. We've seen enough Sauske battles.

I'm curios to what role Kabuto will play in all of this. He seems to be the wild card in all this, and I don't think Madara has even accounted for him.

[Ep1c Win]

100% agree. But we do know that Kabuto said once he gets control over Orochimaru's powers he wanted to fight Naruto so we'll probably see a Kabuto vs Naruto rematch.

I agree on both counts-
1) Kabuto seems more interested in Naruto. Frankly I think Kabuto never liked Sasuke.
2) Hoping Kabuto @$##s up Madara's plans big time.

the waterfall villiage never does anything
i dont understand why people would wana hurt them

[Monkey-Man]

They did sent Kakuzu to assassinate the 1st Hokage though, and when Kakuzu failed miserably, they threw him in jail (that's why Kakuzu stole the 5 heart tech and took the hearts of all the village's elders).

Though Kabuto infiltrates the Waterfall Village seems quite pointless coz Kakuzu left none alive knowing about his immortal secret.

[Croc Sensei]

They're not innocent; they produced people like Kakazu.:ninja:lol

[Graeystone]

I think Kabuto does. Whenever I think about Kabuto and Naruto the phrase, 'Lab rat in a maze' comes to mind and Naruto is the lab rat. Not saying Kabuto is causing anything that's been happening to Naruto but I think Kabuto is spying on the blond in his own way.

Case and point-Sasuke. And according to the fanboys, he is the embodiment of cool. And we all know fanboys have the best logic.

[Dre_Rasegan]

Rofl.... wow. what a ridiculous statement? You do forget that Kabuto killed members of his own village. Now he is fused with Oro and you think he is going to turn to a good guy?

I like Temari a lot and her summon is her best jutsu. However I think KabutOro would take her at the moment. (I get the joke before I get ripped apart:D)

[Narubi]

I'm just wondering though: since Kabuto, is now more like Orochimaru, in a sense; does this mean he'll start doing all that tongue work Oro, did?

There is still this big mystery about Kabuto, remember when team 7 were all kids, do you remember the look on Kabuto´s face when his glasses fell off? like some kind of rage inside of him, we´ve never seen what happens if he unleashes that rage does anyone know more about Kabuto´s mysterious rage or hidden powers?

I don't know about rage but we did see him being himself during the Sannin fight. He was bada$$ although he underestimated Naruto and got hammered for it.

[OnliBlackGuy]

Kabuto is getting his own village. Epic. Is that where he is from too?

[gummyworms]

will the next chapter be another talk chapter? Why doesnt naruto fight anyone ever. Make him fight the lightning country or pick a random fight with one of the other kages or something.

[Kinjo the Wanderer]

More importantly--will Kabutomaru get to summon giant snakes like Manda as well?

[d4rksinz]

Manda is dead...

[Kinjo the Wanderer]

Manda is dead...

I said like him. It stands to reason that since there is more than one giant toad summon seen in the manga, there might be others like Manda as well.

[Saimaroimaru]

Uh no.

[Dark Gale]

Yes it's possible there is exist another big bad snake like Manda junior or Manda's wife etc:D

Kabutomaru appear at bad times where Sasuke near getting EMS,if Kabuto still want to beat Sasuke like he said last time he appear he will become EMS first food:dindin:

[andrewski]

That is why I said that this was a means to surpass Oro.



The only problem with a non-Uchiha body sharingan-wielder is that the person tires easily, and cannot voluntarily deactivate it. And actually, if Kabuto does 'create' the sharingan through his own jutsus, it is possible that it may not have the same effects on his body.

Besides, if Kabuto can enhance cellular regeneration, he can go further and alter his physiology, giving himself greater stamina, strength, speed, and what not. The simple fact is that kabuto has not reached his full potential. Only when he does shall we see what he is indeed capable of.



So if it can be done with a secret jutsu, then it can certainly be done with a simple KG, right?

well altering his cellular regeneration may have a limit.. look at tsunade, she can only go so much and no more. why did madara said somethign about the rinnegan in,.... i think it was the previous manga...becasue as far i know, didn't konan took pein;s body, or it exploded.. something like that

[andrewski]

will the next chapter be another talk chapter? Why doesnt naruto fight anyone ever. Make him fight the lightning country or pick a random fight with one of the other kages or something.

Picking a fight with the kages wouldn;t be easy for naruto to do lol.. haven;t you seen their strength.... sasuke alone couldnt beat even one...although the strongest kage seemed to have been the hachib's brother... probably tsunade would have come second if she was there

He is from Rain. Kakuzu the Imortal Zombie Akatsuki member was from Waterfall. It was guessed that Kabuto was their to steal the secret of Imortality.

Pein reside in Amegakure (Hidden Rain Village)... it is different from Takigakure (Village Hidden in a Waterfall)

Yea..Im wondering the same thing..He will definitely be better than Oro tho because of his medical skills..He can heal and use the surgical knife no jutsu. Plus the replacement technique from Oro was dope! The only thing is, the big snake summon is dead now because of Sauce correct?

[look.dead.birdy]

Shouldn't the thread be renamed to kaburichimaro now.
I'm glad Orichimaru is back(kinda) he was a good character and didn't deserve the lame ending he got when he was already half dead.

I propose Madara and Kaburichimaro fuse and create the untimate opponent Makaburichimaro.

True. You could've said the same thing about Sasukemaru... lol

Anyone think Kabuto is going be pretty much like Sannin level, seeing he was already Kakashi's level (before MS) and now he's getting Orochimaru's power on top of that?

It's not like Sasuke, because Kabuto actually absorbed the "power" in a sense. Kabuto's got the full deal.

Yeah he'd probably be Sanin LvL, though with how young he is, he might just be stronger than that.

Who knows really, we'd have to wait an see what happens when we see him in battle with someone.

I wonder how much trouble he'll cause Sasuke... he's supposed to be going after the both of them.

Yeah I can only wonder what he could do now, apart from last time.

I mean his advanced med-skills was bad enough but now with a major power boost, and skills in other fields besides med-jutsu, to the point of proabably even combining them to whole other lvl's: just gives me the chills a bit.

Hopefully Kishi, won't plot fail Kabuto, with lameness.

I'd say he'd cause a good deal of trouble for Naruto, or Sasuke.

I forgot his medical jutsu!!!! lol The white snake already has regeneration power. White Snake + Medical Jutsu...

This dude's gonna be ****ing unstoppable. I wonder if there's a new "manda." If the snakes work anything like the toads there's probably one. Gamakichi is gettin' big, with time he'll be he's dads size. Either way I can't wait for some battles with him. What I don't like is Kishi's writing style, he's got so much mystery behind him, but why did he failroad with Sasuke and Naruto when he could make a cool character with Kabuto? Ya know what I mean? It's like one moment it's shiit writing then epic character return.

Gamakichi is gettin' big, with time he'll be he's dads size. Either way I can't wait for some battles with him. What I don't like is Kishi's writing style, he's got so much mystery behind him, but why did he failroad with Sasuke and Naruto when he could make a cool character with Kabuto? Ya know what I mean? It's like one moment it's shiit writing then epic character return.

I agree. There's been so much hope for Naruto's character but all he's done is disappoint lately. I liked Sasuke in part I but have liked him less in every hax fight he's been in since Deidara. Kabuto looks promising and I REALLY hoping kishi pulls off his character successfully. If he just ends up being fodder for Sasuke I may actually quit the manga.

[mechysonu]

I doubt kabuchimaru will be a fodder character. Look at him!!! he's a freak of nature and he looks insanely strong. People keep forgetting that kabuto was always as strong as kakashi without any drugs, now that he has the drug call orochimaru inside him, he's on a whole new level. he's probably most definately stronger than orochimaru at this point :ninja:

I'd probably be right with you. The only reason I haven't quit the manga is because I'm so far in it. I might as well ride it out to the end, but there's no way you can mess up Kabuto. I think anyone that knows Naruto could do something epic with Kabuto. I wanna see him attack a few villages, get a name going for himself, shake those "haters." Lol

He's probably like a demi-god in the Sound country, or probably will be. Did all of the sound four die? What if they came back? They'd have new powers 'n ****. lol

Jirobo = Hulk

Kidomaru = Venom from Spiderman

Sakon = Pretty much a repeat of Zetsu, maybe more manly :p

Tayuya = Instead of a flute she'd come back as John Williams. Anyone that listens to her music would be instantly put under a genjutsu of pure epicness lol

[Starwind and Hawking Ent.]

I'm really hoping that Kabuto finds his way into the Cloud village. Supposedly Cloud village has been bolstering techniques, and now that Juugo has been captured Kabuto could be a way of getting them curse seals. Seeing Raikage transform lvl 2 w/ a curse seal i think would be kinda cool.

Being a ninja that worked with Orochimaru, why would they want him anywhere near them?

Yeah, it's unfortunate the sound four are gone. I really don't care too much what happens with Kabuto as long as he isn't Sasuke fodder (which Deidera, Danzo, and even Naruto at the end of part I were). It would be cool if kishi puts something together and Kabuto gets henchmen. I would still be happy if it was just him running around messing with stuff by himself though. I'm still a huge Neji fan and STILL think Neji is the coolest character in the manga (despite pretty much no character development since part I). Kabuto's easily a close second right now, and I'm really excited with the prospect of him returning with Orochimaru's powers

[kwajasab]

Its been specifically stated in the manga that Kumo is gathering techniques. I really don't think they would care that Kabuto or Juugo worked with Orochimaru, as seen with the fact that they tried to kidnap Hinata to gain the Byakugan.

Also, why are people still calling Kabuto, Kabutimaru or other names. Its KABUTO, he is not Orochimaru.

[ajh77]

Kabuto will be Naruto's fodder. That is the fate of anyone who fights Sasuke or Naruto untill they fight. It's a shame though. We need more epic characters besides Naruto and Sasuke being constantly shoved down our throats.

I'm going to disagree with you on that. Kabuto more of an important character than that. He represents kind of the dark side of Naruto gift to change people. I mean look at this way Naruto fought Gaara and after words Gaara became a good person. Work with Chiyo and she became a good person. Talked with Nagato and he became a good person. Kabuto after Ochimaru died he was alone. After encountering Naruto so many times. He decided to follow Naruto's example and become more like him. However, he did so by placing the a dead part of his idol inside his body and confronted Naruto told him this. He was on a whole new level of insane rather then a good person like the others. So he probably going to have involvement in the story than just being a guy who fights Naruto and dies.

Only because Oro's cells are taking his body over...HE still has control but his body is in possession of Oro's cells

I noticed something about kabuto in the latest chapter.

His new cloak, or should I say Hood
http://media.onemanga.com/mangas/00000004/000298712/17.jpgLooks like the one medusa from Soul Eater wears :eek:

Very original Kishi :rofl:

[Masamune]

The designs are completely different.

[Sasuke48]

The designs are completely different.

Okay maybe not the cloak as a whole but The hood look very similiar.

[Madara's Tank]

I don't think the designs are that similar either lol. At least not from those pics. Besides, we still haven't seen the whole design on Kabuto's hood.

[Sage of the Six Paths]

I like the idea of it. The cloak, or hood I think resembles the creature, or style so to say. Almost dressing up to look like or resemble what is inhabiting his body. transformation later?

[rob kaku]

:bow: kabutos new look is so great and he is now another force to be reconed with and certanly his story will be next, the arc where he is the main antagonist or if that doesnt happen perhaps the arc after :thumbsup: anyway i was waiting to see him for a long time THANKS KISHI

hm a lot of artist take ideas from other things like movies,cartoons,music,famous people.rock stars so he took a cloak design no worry its just one small detail

Doesn't bother me, I just thought it was funny to point out.

heh thats true these things dont get noticed quite often by many so its a fun way to analise and discuss things

[Sasuke48]

In all honesty, I am suprised that Kabuto was the one to wear a cloak that symbolizes a Snake rather than Orochimaru himself.

**** YES!!! Kabuto and Orochimaru are my favorite villains in all of Naruto. Akatsuki was great at first, but when they started biting the dust, they were lame. Orochimaru's death was lame, but he's the quintessential villain in Naruto. No ****ing sob story. Searching for parents death was only like 2 panels. It wasn't as mass as the other people's.

And Kabuto... ohh sexy. Him being a villain was a major twist in Naruto for me. I love sadism in a villain. He is the typical mad scientist and I always have a thing for these guys. He's a skilled ninja without fancy magician abilities. He's PURE ninja! Sasuke better not kill him. After all, he did say that he was going after Sasuke for revenge...

OMG you just gave me an idea sasuke vs kabuto finally he can defeat him (hmmmmmm i know its a plot armored guy we are talking about bu still) and then kabuto after sasuke is defeated and near death says "you were never a match fr me,muahahahaha" cmon its a nice twist KABUTO FTW glad to see many kabuto fans:thumbsup:

Hm kabuto likes snakes now because he has a part of oro inside him and yeah oro could wear that e would have looked cool in it

I am seriously hoping that happens. Will prove to Orochimaru that Kabuto was a more appropriate vessel.

I'm hoping that Kabuto has the hell curse seal. I think it was Kimimaru that had the heaven and Sasuke that had the earth. Kabuto needs to have a curse seal. I want it!

wow great the hell seal it should be the most powerfull right??? and it might be that kabuto was givin the strongest one he was most loyal to orochimaru

Curse seal and orochimaru's cells/body, quite the combination.

[Madara's Tank]

I hope he has the cursed seal, but I doubt he does. if he did he probably would have used it when he fought Tsunade. One could argue he was pretty much in control the whole time (especially after he doused her in blood) and he definitely wouldn't have felt the need to use it for Naruto. Still though, there's no indication that he has it. We've all ready seen Anko's cursed seal for crying out loud.

Still, with ALL (hopefully) of Orochimaru's powers plus the crazy techs he used against Tsunade, he's all ready plenty powerful. I would like to see some some sort of upgrade still though, since he's so cool.
