Naruto Shippuden episode 76 - 77. First, The Akatsuki. They are reaching their destination to make the exchange. The two walked into a bathroom through a secret door to make the exchange. The two Akatsuki has tension between them they keep on arguing while the konoha teams are preparing to ambush the Akatsuki team members. No one knows which location the two man team went to, so all are prepared. Shikimaru and Asuma found the right place. They ambush Hidan with the Shadow bind technique (using Shikiamaru’s shadow to paralyze an opponent), and two other ninjas go in for the kill. Having pierced his vital organs, the whole team is surprised to see Hidan perfectly alive, and apparently just really annoyed by the attack. The konoha team reassembles and decides to have just Asuma attack, making him a sacrifice to get Hidan (this is technique called a “Climbing Silver” in the chess-like game shoji, hence the title). Just as they seem to have finally gotten Hidan killed in a giant fireball, he turns to a skeletal looking black and white color. We’ll find out what this transformation means in the next episode.
On the other hand, Naruto is still learning the next part of his training. Kakashi explained to Naruto that the Rasengan is the ultimate in shape manipulation and the next step or thing that the Fourth Hokage was trying to achieve was to combine rasengan with an element. But the Fourth Hokage failed to achieve this task. Naruto’s element is wind. Kakashi explains to him that this kind of technique is not easy to achieve even the Fourth Hokage failed to mix an element to the rasengan. Kakashi also told Naruto that he believes that Naruto can achieve this skill and he can surpass the fourth hokage. Naruto, begins his next training instantly and instantly realize how hard this training is. He compared the training to himself trying to look left and right at the same time. This new technique caused Naruto some serious strain to the point where the Kyuubi is starting to violently leak out, causing the “fox’s cloak” to form. Yamato immediatly surpresses the Kyuubi, and Naruto collapses from the exhaustion.
Asuma mourns Chiriku’s (one of the 12 ninja guardians)death while Hidan and Kakuzu take Chiriku in for their payment. Meanwhile, Kakashi shows Naruto what the true goal of his training will be. It is also revealed that Kakashi can perform the Rasengan.
Everybody on Konoha are still repairing the damage after the last attack on Konoha, even Tsunade sama has become more serious on her duties as the Fifth Hokage. Asuma get flashback on what his father’s said when he was on Sarutobi’s funeral. Naruto and Sai are still healing their wound on hospital while Sakura attend to them. Kakashi gave report to Tsunade about Akatsuki’s move. After his last journey with Jiraiya to get information about akatsuki, Kakashi is back and ready to continue Naruto’s training. On the other place, two Akatsuki, Hidan and Kakuzu, have starting their fight againt two-tails Jinchuuriki which was known as Nii Yugito of the Hidden Cloud. Nii Yugitoo tried to trapped them and turn out to her true form “two tailed beast”. it seems they were on danger and no match for Nii Yugitoo but on the last filler akatsuki were the winner. They are so incredibl and looks like they are immortal, because Hidan was tabbed him self with swords only for killed their enemy.
The end of the Sora arc. Naruto finally have been succeded to pressing Kyubi’s chakra from taking over himself again. Then Naruto tried the same thing for Sora, he tried to awakening Sora. And when Naruto was walking towards Kyuubi Sora, he was beaten down by Sora. Naruto stand up again and try again but he failed. Sakura come to heal Naruto but on the same time Sora attack them by ball amount of chakra. Naruto protect Sakura with his body and ask him to join other. Let Naruto to handle Sora by his own self. Meanwhile, Kazuma tried to escape from Azuma, but Sai come to help zuma and finally Kazuma has been defeated by Azuma. Back again to Naruto and Sora, when Sora heared Naruto’s voice, he get his self back slowly. And finally Naruto could hit Sora and succeded awakening Sora. On the other side, new opponent has apeared, Akatsuki has been starting their move. It seem two Akatsuki’s member tried to kill two-tails Jinchuuriki. Their name are Hidan and Kakuzu.
In Naruto Shippuden espisode 70 everyone is trying to stop Sora while Asuma and the newly revealed Kazuma are fighting off on their own. Pretty much nothing works on Sora, despite the reapeated efforts till Naruto does his “I understand how you feel” thing and instead of solving the problem, Sora’s released chakra resonates with the real chakra inside of Naruto. Naruto begins to develop the fox’s cloak as well. Sora sprouts the fourth tail becoming the fully formed Fox that we’ve seen when Naruto went “four tails” as well. Naruto starts to change as well but stops the tranformation returning to normal. Everynow and then we see images of Sora, apparently his “inner conciousness” where he faintly hears Naruto’s voice. And that’s it. Serisously, we know Naruto is going to save the day, again, by merely making Sora his friend.
Furido notices that one of the four Lightning Ninjas were destroyed and dissapates his ressurection technique. Not giving up, he goes to plan B where he releases the Chakra inside of Sora. Flashback: when the Kyuubi first attacked Konoha, some ninjas took advantage of the attack and collected some of the chakra that leaked off. They cultivated it and inserted it in Sora. So basically, Sora is another version of Naruto. Now that this chakra is released, he starts to develop the fox’s cloak and some tails. Naruto is trying to talk him down, but Furido released the chakra completely so there’s no stopping it. Also, All the other ninjas arrive, including Asuma. Asuma suddenly realized that Furido is Kazuma (yes Sora’s Father). So off go Kazuma and Asuma to fight to the death as sora lays there screaming about the pain (and his screaming, by the way, sounds like a mix of a cat getting strangled and a dog in heat-in short nothing pretty or even remotely clos to normal human noise).
