This is a prediction including the next chapter and several chapters to come:
- Naruto and Co leave the scene
- Akatsuki gets news of this defeat:
Zetsu: It appears that both hidan and kakuzu have been defeated...
AL: Itachi you assured me that this jinchuuriki posed no threat to us...
Itachi:...I said there was no need to be hasty, fear not, his capture presents no challenge
AL: Enough! You test my patience, you and kisame have 2 weeks to capture your jinchuuriki, if you fail to do so, do not bother returning.
As for the rest of you, it's time to pay orochimaru a visit...
- At the battle scene:
Zetsu: (He looks tasty)...Indeed.
Kakuzu: Zetsu...
Zetsu: !
- Later:
Kisame: Itachi...isn't konoha west of here?
Itachi: ...we're not going to konoha...
Kisame: What? Why?
Itachi: Kisame, I must ask you to trust me, or I will have to kill you...
Kisame: Tsch...what is it?
- Back at konoha:
- Naruto and co are in tsunades office
Tsunade: I see, this is good news, in light of these new events, I think promotions are in order
Naruto: (alright)!
Tsunade: Shikamaru, after what kakashi has told me, it is in my belief that you are worthy of the jounin rank
Shikamaru: (oh how troublesome...)
Tsunade: And naruto...
Naruto: YES YES!
Tsunade: I am promoting you to chuunin
Naruto: WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!? WHAT ABOUT MY NEW JUTSU?
Tsunade: SHUT UP, YOU SHOULD BE GRATEFUL!, YOUR JUTSU IS NOT EVEN COMPLETE!
Naruto: INCOMPLETE! I'LL SHOW YOU INCOMPLETE! WAAAAAAAAA!
Yamato: Now now naruto calm down!
Kakashi:
- Much later
- At orochimaru's place
Sasuke: *panting* damnit...I'll never beat itachi at this rate...
Sasuke:!
*Explosion!*
Deidara and tobi are standing in front of sasuke
Tobi: Who's this?
Deidara: Sharingan...this must be itachi's brother...!
A flood of snakes shoot towards deidara and tobi who dodge
Orochimaru: Come to die is it? Who is that?
Deidara: This guy, he's sasori's replacement yeah
Orochimaru: So is it just the 3 of you then zetsu?
Zetsu: He noticed!
*Oro swings around and swipes at zetsu with a sword, zetsu disappears back into the ground*
AL: Not quite oro
*AL and the blue haired chick come walking foward*
Oro: You...sasuke, let me introduce you to the AL
AL: So you're the uchiha boy, well unfortunately for you, you're coming with us
*at that moment itachi and kisame come bursting in, itachi grabs sasuke*
Itachi: I'm afraid not
AL: Itachi! What is the meaning of this?
Itachi: Change of plan, good luck with oro
*Itachi and kisame disappear, in the confusion, orochimaru makes a break for his lair, he orders kabuto to follow itachi and kisame*
AL: Interesting, forget itachi, we shall proceed as planned, however, blue hair, I want you to go after itachi's jinchuuriki, we must obtain the kyuubi at all costs!
*blue hair leaves*
AL: Be careful, this lair must be littered with traps
- Over to itachi, kisame and sasuke
*Sasuke already tired, activates his sharingan and attempts to free himself with chidori nagashi, kisame counters it with his samehada and zaps the rest of sasuke's chakra, he falls unconcious*
Kisame: Now what?
Itachi: Time to introduce my brother to a friend
- At the same time, kakuzu arrives at a new village, in search of new hearts
