First at all it seems that for a few months I'm going to be really busy as i try to complete another career and finish it, please send me your best wishes because I'm gonna need it (lot of maths in this one). The manga is taking a nice pace, we are just getting fed with battles after battles, those who like this kind of development are really happy now.
The chapter stars with Tsuchikage Oonoki using his jutsu to allow his bodyguards to levitate (fly) as he does, not many characters in the world of Naruto have this kind of ability, far as I can remember I must say that only: Nagato/Pain, Konan, Gaara (by using his sand) and the Tsuchikage are the only one capable of flying. This is really a weird scenario, Iwakure willing to protect Konoha and Kumo's Jinchuuriki, considering that Iwakure is a enemy of Konoha and it seems that their relation with Kumo is not the best, if we consider how surprised was Hokage Tsunade of Iwa and Kumo agreeing to be part of an alliance.
In the other hand we have Kabuto who is becoming more and more interesting, he is just the best replacement for Nagato's pain army. Although honestly Kabuto is a character that brights for his own light of being unreadable or hard to read.
Kabuto brought Deidara back to the game, however he seems to be taking a different approach for this edo tensei summon, allowing him to keep his personality in battle might be good, but also might be really bad considering Deidara's personality. Kabuto seems to have something going on and this is really hard to tell, we can assume that he is after the knowledge of Rikodou, not really after becoming Rikoudo if not needed.
The Tsuchikage "surprises" Kabuto with a light punch, it seems that the Tsuchikage was actually measuring him, although is hard to tell what kind of information he was looking for, maybe the next chapter will reveal it. However this battle between Kabuto and Iwakure is profiling as battle between Iwa skills/techniques....
between Deidara and Iwa's team. It's weird to see the Tsuchikage protecting the jinchuurikis, after all he is a Kage, the oldest of them and if he dies it could create controversy between the members of the alliance who come from his nation. Most of the bloggers are predicting the death of the Tsuchikage as outcome of this fight.
Comedy Relief...
Some people are upset with the way Naruto is taking things, for example he is ignoring the possibility of an attack from Akatsuki after the what happened with Kisame, but should it be the other way around?, I mean the shinobi nations in a meeting where Konoha did not participate, decided that they will protect the Jinchuurikis, instead of using them in the battlefront as Tsunade proposed... after all that was originally the intention of most of the shinobi nations.
However this not the typical war between shinobi nations, this a war between Akatsuki and the Shinobi nations, if you take the current situation of the world, you can compare Akatsuki with a terrorist organization or a Guerrilla, those are not the conventional kind of war, where two nations face each other in a battle field, and that's why it generally hard for governments to beat these kind of fights (Vietnam anyone?). Well enough of historical comparisons, the true is that Naruto has never been the smarter of the guys, did you guys forget who got the lower scores at the academy and who failed the exams several times?, is almost inevitable a clash between Kabuto and the jinchuuriki, unless some other reinforcements are already on their way to the turtle island.
Kabuto's skills.
Finally Kabuto has surpassed Orochimaru, or at least it seems that way, as Ksihimoto honors a classic of television (Manda), we finally get to see the dragon version of the snake, is cool and lives up to what it have done in the japanese tv/movies, nevertheless we can't forget of Kabuto's control over his edo tensei summon and his medical abilities which remains to be seen.
The picture above probably will be one the most epic picture ever seen, not only for the great artwork seen, but also it shows the results of Kabuto and Deidara teamwork, their interaction is way better than the interaction of Deidara had with Sasori and Tobi. I really like the way they are working, it seems like they get along quite well.
Deidara vs Tsuchikage
Deidara is defiant towards the Tsuchikage, although at the same time somewhat disquiet about the Tsuchikage. How powerful is the Tsuchikage, remains to be seen, Sarutobi more than being powerful was skilled and that's why he was capable of obtaining a victory over Orochimaru, sacrificing himself in the process.
So what's next, will the Tsuchikage die as outcome of this arc or just at least one of his bodyguards will bite the dust?
Which are Kabuto intentions?
Will he succeed in his mission?

I will use a different tag...

The chapter ends with Tsuchikage about to use Jinton - Genkai Hakuri no Jutsu, let's remember, this jutsu obliterate the target in a molecular level, if this attack lands on Deidara it would be a great opportunity to see how far Kabuto has improved his Edo Tensei and if this is capable of restoring the body after receiving an attack of this type.
Thoughts.
It was really good chapter, although in few panel it felt like if we were reading Oda's One Piece. The chapter was really action packed and leaves us in the expectation of wanting to reading what's next in the story. Kabuto appears to be the real deal as villain/antagonist, this aura/atmosphere is something that Tobi still lacks from my point of view.
Iwakure shinobi seems to be specialized in earth based attacks, considering what we have seen from them so far, but who knows what we'll see next. Kabuto continuing Orochimaru's experiments and taking them to a whole new level is also something that is giving fruit, he was easily capable of tracking down the island.
Last week's poll results.
Most voted: 36.11% Kabuto will get directly to where the Jinchuurikis are with Deidara
Right prediction
The 11.11% got it right, Kabuto used Deidara as distraction
