Chapter 262 Scanlated by Winter Creature and Digik Designs

[wintercreature]

Hello everyone! I haven't made an appearance since.. forever! This a a very SPEEDY scanlation just to get it hot off the press, I tried to make the pages better, but the RAW was horrible >_<

To read it online, Chapter 262 Online Reading (http://www.digik.net/naruto)

Thanks Hissouburaiken for the translation!

Hope you'll like it ^_^

[sonicscheese]

I kind of like these informative chapters. It makes seeing a battle so much better knowing more background of each character.

[Amatsu Mikaboshi]

man i love the manga. i cant wait to read the next chapter.

[Brock-lee]

Damnit! This is too much.. I can't wait a whole another week! If they only took out those few pages of gaara standing alone, we could have seen more!Blah!...oh well good chaper anyway. But I have a feeling the old lady is somehow going to bring Gaara back(she'll probably die doing it). And I seriously hope Naruto doesn't, rush in, see Gaara, and mad and try to beat everyone down and gets the crap beat out of him(let he did in all the other fights). Let hope he learned something.

[CRtwenty]

Yea... the sad part is, that when this part is made into an anime those three pages of Gaara will probably end up being ten minutes of flashback.

[Aurora Dark]

wow.. thanks a lot for the link :D

[dragon_50469]

thanks for the link

[Butterz]

hmmm things are becoming interesting. I sense some ass-kicking in the future of the manga

[Vishox]

lol so my theory was right!

kakashi chats up the old bird, and now they're getting ready to have barbecue and beers!!

[Dream_Walker]

that was a good chapter. man, garra needs a hug

[B166ER]

and naruto needs to kick someone's ass, the next chapters might be reaaaally kewl :D

[tdeep29]

I'm fired up now. Can't wait for next week. Hope it doesn't take a whole chapter to break that barrier though.

[Omaki_Roku]

lets see 8 konoha characters
8 akatsuki members.....
I wonder
if they will all go one on one?

[Butterz]

Yea that would be awesome.
Everyone gets to show off there new moves and stuff.

[evil_murai]

mayb, but not all eight are in the grotto, remember? Itachi and Kisame are off somewhere else. they'd have to travel all the way back to the hideout.

[7hat1kid]

Actually none of the members are really there. All of the members in the cave are just bunshin clones. That's been stated several times in past chapters.

[Aurora Dark]

wha?

I thought it was that they originally were there, and then they make clones when they're sent out to do something.

[B166ER]

uh since we saw the actual itachi and kisame, meditating on a hill, and some other itachi and kisame inside the cave, we can think that there's nothing but clones in the cave...

[nawar]

only deidara and sasory are actualy in the cave

[Aurora Dark]

well no..

that just says that Itachi and Kisame are clones in the cave. what about everyone else? Me confused :lol:

[Super_Pervert]

If they are clones wouldn't it be easier if deidara and sasory just layed low to hide then they meet all together. So that the process wouldn't take so long and if inturruptions occured they could be easily be dealt with... And which chapter did it say the ones in the cave are clones?
Nice link btw

[Vishox]

it seems we have another fight involving deidara and sasori

[graff]

yeah i think naruto will take on diedra and the old hag has sasori

[jus10]

Next chapter should bring interesting results. I hope Ga'ara is able to snap out of whatever is happening on his own, but I doubt it. If all 8 Akatsuki members were in there, the 8 going to save Ga'ara would eventually lose, unless Naruto went ALL out but that isn't going to happen. It'd be cool to have 8 individual fights though. The real ones would be Sasori and Deidara so Chyoba would naturally fight Sasori, and I think Ten Ten could handle Deidara, or at least distract him for a little bit. Even though the rest are clones (I think it said Kagebushins) they can perform all of the justus as they're real bodies. Only exception would probably be Itachi and the Mangekyou.

[KageNaruto]

lolz, naruto sees gaara dead, but he gets so mad he goes berserk(not kyubii renting chakra thing, i mean berserk) , he goes berserk like wen he fought haku but lvl 2 demon form! then hell kik evry1s ass! uand u kno hes super strong and fast, that battle between naruto and haku was shown slow motion and naruto was moving even faster than haku! so if he goes berserk i don think hell get his ass kiked so easily. i mean hell probably get 3 chidoris poked through him(this an example) and then he just roars , blows the people away and instaNTLY regenarates.

[KageNaruto]

it was powerful, u kno those ice mirrors were super strong, he broke them with ease, second u see how fast haku was moving, it showed narutos clones goin slow motion and haku was still goin super fast, and when he went berserk he moved faster than haku. also when he goes berserk his seal brakes partially, so hes way way more powerful wen he just rents kyubis chakra

[graff]

his seal never breaks it just lets more and more chakara leak out. and they showed that for dramatic perspective.

[Venom Unleashed]

I definetly know that Sasori and Diedra are inside the cave, seeing as how they had to deliver the unconsious Gaara to the Akatsuki. Itachi and Kisame aren't in there cause their real bodies were busy preforming that weird body copy jutsu outside the cave. And the cannibal-plant guy (forgot his name) is outside because they told him to use his real body to be on the look out for invaders such as team 7 and gai's team(plus he is currently munching on that poor sand bastard right now :P ). As for the Akatuski leader and the other three i have no clue, but something tells me its just Sasori and Deidra inside the cave. My reason? I dont think that even the combined efforts of Gai's team and Kakashi's team have enough ability and strength to take on 6 of the akatsuki team members, I mean look how much trouble it took taking on two of the members, and that wasnt even the real bodies of itachi and kisame either.

tenten and deidara ??? she would get crushed in like half a round !! this guy took gaara down !!!! he's almost at hokage's lvl, he's a uber powerful ninja ! tenten's only a cutey one :wink:
and for sasori, i'm not sure he would fight the old lady, cause there's also something between him and kakashi, since white fang killed sasori's dad...

[CRtwenty]

Hmmm... how is this fight going to go anyway? We have Nine People (not counting Pakkun) going against Eight Ataksuki members.

Hrm, if you take out the old lady then it makes it 8v8. Here's my list of the matchups.

Sasori vs. Kakashi
Itachi vs. Naruto
Deidara vs. Tenten
Kisame vs. Gai
Zetsu vs. Neji
Leader vs. ????

Since we don't know the other members abilities yet, I can't really match them up. But I'm thinking the huge guy will end up fighting Lee. and Sakura might end up with the other one.

[graff]

yeah but you forgot that sasori is going to fight the old hag. i mean that is the whole reason that shes there in the first place isnt it?

[CRtwenty]

I think that she'll enter the fight later. She doesn't like the type who could last in a long fight.

My theory, Kakashi will get the first few shots at him. Lose, and the old lady will sneak in and take out Sasori with some sort of suicide technique. (After a flashback of course)

[graff]

or it could happen that she fights him tries the suicide technique and fails then comes kakashi to save the day

[Omaki_Roku]

I dont really care bout any of those other fights,, well I do but

I really wanna see

Neji vs itachi :)

[BlueSpider]

You know whats pissing me off. Almost every chapter we get told how much naruto understands how gaara feels. WE FREAKIN KNOW. they have repeated that fact millions of times. Great idea to delay the manga while the anime is like 14 episodes behind excluding the filler saga. The manga is either going to die from the anime catching up or due to the fact its degraded in storyline imo.
Oh and as for the upcoming fights i think everyone will go one on one except sakura and tenten...i think they will team up on someone.....old woman will fight sasori and naruto or kakashi will fight itachi....gai vs kisame....the rest i have no idea...

[Vishox]

kisame and itachi aren't there though, or zetsu i believe.

maybe they might be alerted to action in their hideout but i dont know, although it may look like we'll be let down as they up and leave while gaara breathes his last :/

[nawar]

my guess is, evryone leaves, except sasory and deidara, ( leave meaning, disapear as kagebunshin ) then the gang finds gaara half dead, while everyone takes on sasory and deidara, tenten, sakura and chyobaa they handle gaara, and when they find out that gaara is dying chyo baa takes on sasory on her own

[jus10]

I think that Chyobaa will have to reseal the bijuu in Ga'ara again.

[B166ER]

shukaku's ealed in a statue that was summoned, so there's no bijuu to seal in anyone now in that cave, unless they succed in summoning the statue again...

[DukeAbercrombie]

You know whats pissing me off. Almost every chapter we get told how much naruto understands how gaara feels. WE FREAKIN KNOW. they have repeated that fact millions of times. .lol that is soo true

i hate the stupid worthless flashbacks! who cares!
