The "White" ring-holding person's name is confirmed. It's written as "小南" ("Shouna" or "Shounan", each kanji respectively meaning "little" and "south"), and it's read as "Konan".

来週は自来也VSペインな雰囲気…。
Next week has a build-up of Jiraiya versus Pain...[/SPOILER]

There is an extended summary I read. Jiraiya set up a fake sake bar in the Rain village, Club Frog. The bar actually turns into a frog and traps the customers inside who Jiraiya then questions about Pein. :lol:

I hope it's true.

[DarkNataku]

Why put it in spoiler tags if the title already says spoilers. So do Itachi and Sasuke meet in the hideout or are they still in that cave from last chapter? That bar sounds like he is using Summoning: Toad Mouth Bind.

[Cow]

Specific chapter / episode threads do not require spoiler warnings, or spoiler tags.

[gameoffreak8]

Okay, okay. *fixed it* Done. I simply put the spoiler tags as final warning for the people who don't read the chapter 368.

[DarkNataku]

I saw two screens and her name is Konan, kinda weird name for her. She uses a jutsu that makes her split into tiny pieces of paper that later fold into butterflies.

[ffl]

This chapter was transitional, but Jiraiya made it interesting.

[DarkNataku]

So Pein can control the weather or at least the rain. If he can make it stop then he can make it start aswell. I thought Konan's flower was a real one or maybe she can turn it into paper too. So will her abilities have something to do with paper sorta like R.O.D. She is a distant cousin to the paper sister. lol

hmmm... might make him a challenge for a fire user... someone who uses fire may have a hard time with him... hmmm... do we know anyone like that... :naughty:

[Lone Signal]

Jiraiya doesn't know anything about subtlety does he.

[Yondaime-Kage]

Jiraiya doesn't know anything about subtlety does he.

At least he made the toad shrink.
Funny twist at the end.
I would love to see a couple of ninja get tickled to death.

[kimimaro]

I can NOT believe that woman... just... peeled herself off...
'-.-

and what was that whole 'about your leader, pein' thing?

And nothing is said of naruto's mother. I reckon they used past tense with her though I can't remember properly... :\ could she be ... among the living? (lol it's not safe to say alive in naruto)

and yeah, the whole tickling to death is quite a laugh, can't wait to see what he does about it. hope they show it.
though the whole chapter was... dunno, they used a whole chapter for so little info...

[kt-san]

When I saw Konan's jutsu I immediately thought about Deidara and sasori with their different types of art.

[Aya Nakamura]

I gotta say im liking konan's paper master like jutsu

[DarkNataku]

I gotta say im liking konan's paper master like jutsu

Is that what we are going to call it now. lol But i too was hoping for some more info on Naruto's mom. Even a flashback to see what she looked like would have been nice but that might have been asking to much.

[Nomnomnom]

Of course we're not going to get to see exactly what we'll hoping for right after getting so much information, it wouldn't follow the protocol.

Fight > Information > Fight Fight Fight > Information

[DarkNataku]

Think that there is some training in between the FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT. It would probably 4 or more chapters before we got anything else.

[Jinto117]

I gotta say im liking konan's paper master like jutsu

I gotta say I'm not liking "Konan's" name. I'm pretty sure it's a girl. She should have a chick name. =(

[Aya Nakamura]

I gotta say I'm not liking "Konan's" name. I'm pretty sure it's a girl. She should have a chick name. =( They really could have picked out a prettier name for her really she doesnt seem so plain to be a "Konan"

[final flash]

what is happening to Naruto and Itachi, is it possible that if itachi is still talking to Naruto he is going to lead him to the uchiha hideout, or have they finished their conversation already??

[SonRyu]

After reading and re-reading multiple translations of that chapter, I was under the impression that Itachi did NOT get to talk to Naruto about whatever it was he was planning to. Naruto sent him on a "why do you feel that strongly about Sasuke" tangent, and then his bunshin "left". Hopefully we'll find out what Itachi WANTED to talk to Naruto about.

[DarkNataku]

Maybe that leaf that landed on Naruto's head had some directions or he is under a genjutsu and will meet Itachi and Sasuke in the hideout. Itachi will beat down on Sasuke and make him think of killing Naruto to get MS just to beat his brother.

[Mikadzuki Tatsu]

Note: Never walk into an unfamiliar public bar and immediately start talking about your leader's plans in front of strangers, especially when your country is in the middle of a civil war (you never know who might be the enemy), and especially when said strangers are standing there listening to you talk as if they are interested. Those two ninja had it comin' to 'em, you gotta admit.

They were hilariously pathetic.
Like Jiraiya said,
Lowest of the low.

[ffl]

Even pre-timeskip Naruto could've fooled them. His Henge no jutsu is top-class.
