Very interesting chapter. So many questions to be asked. So many puzzle pieces to be solved.

Sharingan shenanigans...the part I always liked the least in Naruto :S

We have a Sharingan freakshow. This is apparently a thing now. Akatsuki 2.0 apparently too. Nothing original to see here.

Sasuke is still best dad. Teach us your parenting ways oh wise one.

Imagine how many times he can use Izanagi. By the way, if I have to guess where he got those sharingans, that laboratory with the sharingans stored must of have been kept intact. The place where Kabuto and Obito as Madara met.

Wonderful...
Let's ALL have Sharingan now. Seriously, can we get something original in this story anymore?

Another guy obsessed with Sharingans. Nothing we really haven't seen before.Just stitched them all over his head.

Got to see more of Sasuke's parenting. Keep up the good work man.

I am glad that they are finally addressing Kaguya's motives and showing what she needed an army for.

In that flashback, it looks like Sakura was pregnant then

I see Sasuke got his parenting lessons from Itachi.

that's what i thought too but someone on tumblr said that naruto to became hokage after himawari was born which means sadara was prob a toddler around that scene since sasuke referred to naruto as hokage

what do u mean, how so?

There's an edit button. There's no need to double post.

too much sharingan eye porn in this manga, everything revolves around those stupid eyes

Everything doesn't really revolve around those eyes, it's just human nature which dictates such a focus. Think of the Sharingan as Nukes in RL, they're powerful and could change the cause of a war if used correctly.

Everyone obviously wants one like how countries in rl wanted Nuclear Weapons.

Though I do get bored of the constant Sharigans like I got bored of listening to news stories regarding nukes.

Regardless of the fixation on spamming the Sharingan, this was another decent chapter. The meeting with Sasuke didn't turn out to be a complete disaster for Sarada but at least its giving a strong enough indication that Sarada really was mistaking things about her mum.

The mystery surrounding the Army of White Zetsu was also interesting as there was a bit of a plothole regarding that in the main series. Lets see what this Akatsuki ressurection thing is about.

Probably Kishimoto inconsistent again with canon Naruto in the last was not Hokage yet it was after the last. Look like Naruto was about drop everything to go with Sasuke his wife, his kids and Hokage man he must really want that butt sex. On a serious note if he did leave what would say, oh honey I will be for gone for about 12 to 13 years so take care of our children okay kiss and hugs. That would be jack up. And right after he said I want spend the rest of my days with you to her.
Yeah she has a round stomach.

Maybe I missed something but, when was it established that this new guy is restarting the Akatsuki to get Sharingans? I saw that he has alot of them like Danzo but when did we see that he is obsessed with the Sharingan?

hasnt got to that part of the story yet, this is the first time we've seen his face.
And when i say obsessed with the sharigna i mean the author

so sasuke is the new itachi, akatsuki is back for some reason, and the bad guys all have sharingans (and lots of em)... I would have much preferred anything else than repeating shippuden so much.

I do like the story aside from that though. Naruto and Sasuke are pretty great and act pretty much exactly like I would have expected. And Sarada and Chou are surprisingly great characters. The villains are pretty disappointing so far though.

Yeah Kishimoto love the Sharingan man I thought the mini series be about everybody but it just been about Sarada daddy issues and the uchia ham fest. Still love Naruto though.

eww... the enemy is getting creepier?? I thought they would put someone as cool as Pain (Yahiko) but it is actually a sharingan freaking monster

An entity that more dangerous than Kaguya.. hmm... Is that possible?

Meanwhile, Sasuke just display his old tsun trait.. and seeing Sakura's affection toward Sarada, I'm sure that she is actually her daughter.. that Karin's stuff is only a teaser
