303 Discussions [Naruto]

I think after sai tells some of roots goals. sasuke will have heard it all as he was standing behind the door. and for kabuto i think he turn around at the beginning of the chapter and just continue with whatever i guess. chapter will end with sasuke finally exposing himself to naruto and sakura!?!?!?

[C4animax]

I think sai is aware that kabuto is comming back, while yamato will probably notice that someone is coming and maybe hide...since naruto isn't quite quiet even in sneaking mission he'll probably blow their cover or something...
Else kabuto could just come back to get the letter leaving without a word and be followed by team 7, the ideal to get a fight would be to have sai asked to come for divers experiment.

the title bettrayal...i don't know why but i kind of believe that sai is implicated in this bettrayal,again, i just love him lol .

Sasuke and oro are training, nothing will happen in the next few chapters.

[Calibur]

a fight wont break out. too soon. kabuto and team 7 would stare at each other and talk. then it switches to oro and sasuke talking OR do another flash back. which isnt surprising, knowing it is after all, naruto. lol. the next chapter's title can be misleading.. which someone ( or everyone ) has already mention a few times already.

i hope Naruto kicks Sai's butt

I think that bood that Sai summoned was the same book that told him that a smile was the best way to gain someone's trust. I believe it is the root's guildelines and that is what Sai was reading. Perhaps he just read over the part that says if your mission is discovered/fail, kill yourself to erase evidence And that is what Sai is going to do in the chapters to come. But that could be complete B.S. that I just made up. Hopefully Naruto and Yamato will use some awesome techniques to hide from Kabuto.

The truth will come out that Sai was actually telling the truth when he answered Yamato's questions. So he is basically saying that no they are not plotting the destruction of Konoha with Orochimaru, but yes Root intends to destroy Konoha as it exists today. The Betrayal tag at the end of the day will best suit Sai and Root who Betray both Konoha and Sound after forming their strategically false alliance.

My prediction is that Sai was sent in there to be Root's point man to set up the annihilation of the Konoha traders Orochiomaru, Kabuto, and Sasuke. The little play of the giving Orochimaru the Hokage's Anbu roster was a price that Danzou was willing to pay to get dangerously close to his enemies. Sai's Root mask was probably for later in the mission when he joins the rest of Root to eliminate the Sound including the Hokage forgiven traitor Sasuke.

Because of this I see the upcoming confrontation taking an unexpected turn into a three way conflict with team Kakashi somewhat stuck in the middle. Instead of seeing the much anticipated fight between Naruto and Sasuke they are forced into a situation where they must once again cooperate as a team albeit reluctant. The Root will be their to eliminate all of the opponents from all of Sound to Team Kakashi while Sound will be focusing their attacks on all of their opponents, Root and Team Kakashi, Sasuke finds that he really only needs to deal with Root and Team Kakashi finds that they must face both the Sound and Root's direct attacks while also providing support to Sasuke who is also a target of the Root.

I find that very probable. No way are Naruto and Sasuke having their "big battle" so soon. They might meet for a moment and attack each other, but events like the one you described will distract them and Sasuke will gve his trade-mark grin and say "Gotta go"

[billion bruce lees]

big battle they don't even dislike each other, if anything sasuke will beshowing off how much stronger he got.

"...A team with what are surely hopelessly permanent divisions - chaos is sure to ensue!"

Judging from this caption, it doesn't look likely that Sasuke will a) betray Oro or b) greet Naruto and Sakura like lost friends. What this caption implies is that Sasuke will continue down his path of darkness (hence the permanent division)and he will not care if that happens at the expense of his friendship/comradeship. He will be cold towards Naruto and Sakura.

As to what is meant by chaos ensuing...that could only mean a fight. A fight between Sasuke and Naruto? I can't imagine it, yet those two are the best candidates for one. A fight between Sasuke, Naruto and Sakura? Possibly, echoing the fight between Tsunade, Jiraiya and Oro. That also gives Kishi a good opportunity to showcase Sasuke's abilities...though something tells me that Sasuke will not reveal his full capabilities at this time.

303 is really hard to call. All I can predict is that there is gonna be a fight, but I don't know who between!

[billion bruce lees]

i'll take chaos ensuing to mean kabuto walks in on all of them, blinks, and locks the door and run.

sai betrayed leaf

kabuto thinks sai betrayed sound

team 7 knows for a fact he betrayed leaf

everyone attacks sai hhahahaahah

[clarity142]

That would be really intresting if the second to the last panel wasn't really Kabuto's sandal but someone else..oro or sasuke.It's not likely to happen i think .

[billion bruce lees]

exactly " chaos ensues"

[razor]

i think Sai is lying about destroy a Konoha.but only 30% of my head think of that.i kinda blur.im sure that team 7 will hide somewhere else when kabuto arrive.

[Troublesome]

I think somehow Naruto, Yamato and Sakura will split up. Yamato chases Kabuto, Naruto after Sai, and then Sakura will be the firts one to see Sasuke with Oro.

[ShgnLW]

Various things can happen:

- Kabuto comes in Sai's room, gets the papers and leaves after a quick talk (team 7 hides under the ground or something).
- Kabuto is really a spy, and tells team 7 where Sasuke is, as well as the location where oro is.
- Yamato uses a cool new jutsu to enchant Kabuto which tells them everything they want.
- The chapter ends with Kabuto entering the room.

Most likely the last thing happens. Sai tells the plan against team 7 and suddenly Kabuto comes in. What happens then I do not know, but that is for chapter 304.
