We rarely have a topic after Midnight

EDIT: damn you two. But, anyway...uh...I think... ... ...I honestly don't care. Though, remember what the Fox said when he found out Sasuke was able to see him inside Naruto? "With those eyes and a chakra more ominous than my own, you're the spitting image of Madara Uchiha" or something like that. One word: Foreshadowing.

[Fusion X. Denver]

I know, this is a new experience to me

We rarely have some during the day too >___>

But man, not even 100 pages before we hit 1000..

[Nishi-chan]

Wait, Tobi isn't Madara?! But! The! Gah!

What was that scene where he captured Sasuke and told him everything about Itachi then?!

[Fusion X. Denver]

Obviously lies, seeing as how Kushina just proved he was behind the fox attack on Konoha 16 years ago

Maybe not all of it, but he lied about his role in the Kyuubi attack, which puts the other stuff he's said under question

And with recent events, Kishi is hinting Tobi may just be posing as Madara, but that hasn't been confirmed yet

Also, I just learned I'm the 110th highest poster on YCM

And El is 115th

DL is about to become 2nd highest...

[Spirit of DMG]

Um...was my edit ignored?

[Fusion X. Denver]

Sorry didn't see it

Yes, foreshadowing which led to Tobi revealing he's Madara, setting up a huge plot twist that he's not actually Madara

In the 3rd link I posted, it's possible Kabuto summoned the real Madara and Tobi is pissed because that would jeopardize his credibility

2nd link supports that theory of Kabuto knowing who he really is

[Nishi-chan]

We're sticking with the "history repeats itself" plot. I think Sasuke will become another Orochimaru, not Madara.

@Fusion: OR! He summoned Madara's brother.

[Fusion X. Denver]

Nah, what's so fearsome about Izuna?

Rikudo Sage seems like a better candidate

1. Can reseal the Jubi even if Madara succeeds with Moon Eye Plan

2. Most powerful ninja in existence-Kabuto did state he surpassed the 2nd and Orochimaru in Edo Tensei, implying only he would ever be able to resurrect such a ninja

[Spirit of DMG]

Well, they both like inventing Jutsu. Of course, Sasuke only invented like, 20 Chidori Spinn-off jutsu...

[Fusion X. Denver]

Similar to how Naruto developed 10 Rasengan spin-off jutsu..

I'm betting it's either the real Madara or the Rikudo Sage

But I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out to be Izuna, I just think the other 2 are more likely

[Dranzer]

There are 2 things I've thought about in this discussion:

1.If Tobi is Madara he would have to be extreamly old now and died old age.Even if he was alive he would have to have combat abilities low as hell.

2.From what I have said in 1 I'm guesing he either has some Age jutsu like Tsunade or has taken over another persons body like Orochimaru.I'm betting on taking over another body and Kabuto reviving his real body in the last coffin.

 

And DL is second o.0 So who's first.

Yeah... That's pretty much my entire Madara theory in a nutshell. xD

[El Make]

You know, it could be Minato.... *gets shot*

 

And about it being Izuna, Madara could be afraid because his brother would come to b!tch him up.... XD

[HitoKage]

 

I agree with Dranzer and Death Metal, going back to that really old theory, he took Obito's body.

 

Though this shows him with a wrinkled face. Or bags under his eyes since he's sleepy.

[Daybreak]

ITachi said about Madara " To survive we cling to all we understand, all we know, and all we hate." <--That explains the immortal thing.

[Fusion X. Denver]

But the other body thing is Orochimaru's thing

If Madara did that too it'd be...unoriginal..

I really don't think it's Obito

1. Why him? Wouldn't he choose a body that didn't have half of it crushed under rock?

2. Even if Kishi was going to connect Obito with it, he must have seen all the theories about it online and wouldn't want to do something everyone was expecting

[Shadow Zero]

It could actually be that Madara has survived this long due to the eternal mangekyo? Remember, the eternal mangekyo is supposed o give the user an unnaturally long life.

[Fusion X. Denver]

That's also true, Kishi may just be chucking red herrings and Tobi is actually Madara like he says

Wait, does that mean Sasuke will live forever (unless he's killed)?

Btw Shadow, you're the 5th highest poster on YCM

[HitoKage]

Your right Neo, though it would be unexpected since it's so expected...nevermind.

[Fusion X. Denver]

Yeah we'll just have to wait :/

But the war is coming, so that will most likely be addressed soon

I wonder how long the training arc will be once Kushina leaves?

[Shadow Zero]

Hopefully not to long. I feel as though the war arc is going to be the last arc though, aside from small stuff taken care of in the last few chapters.

[Fusion X. Denver]

I think that's right, but the War Arc will be broken up into sub-arcs

I hope the action picks up soon and epic things happen

Though I do want to see the rest of the Kyuubi flashback first

[HitoKage]

Probably will go like this: Minato final does something to break Madara's concentration, (besides what we've seen), Kyuubi goes on rampage, Madara leaves, village takes care of Kyuubi, Minato seals it inside Naruto, Minato dies due to fight, or some other reason, and Kushina due to Kyuubi's release.
