Chapter 430. And counting, unfortunately.

NARUTO HAS RETURNED!

Sporting a jacket that would look awesome, but really only serves to make that orange jumpsuit even more repulsive than usual. Nice coloring job, Kishi.

He's standing on a giant frog, which is also standing on a giant frog. This particular frog is standing next to two other frogs of similar height. That's one WTF strike. Two more and I will be quitting this chapter early and playing more Tales of the Abyss instead. It becomes more interesting this way, no?

Sith Pein approaches, preparing for the super major face-off that shouldn't be happening since our hero wouldn't be anywhere near Pein's tier if it weren't for Kishimoto's lack of storytelling ability. Naruto still hasn't figured out what the crater he's standing in is. In a marvelous display of selective monument survival, Mt. Rushkage is still standing, which serves to remedy the confusion.

Strike two, page 7.

And apparently everyone important survived the nuking. Strike thr-

OH SWEET FAILKAGE THE HAG IS DYING!

Alright, we're still on strike two. For now.

Nagato decides to focus all the chakra into Sith Pein for this fight. Because Jiraya was a toy, but his idiot apprentice with seven different attention span disorders is SRS BIZNESS.

Two and a half, just because I'm still feeling generous over the whole thing with Tsunade dying.

Lazer Brain Pein attacks Tsunade to finish the job, only to be OHKO'd by Naruto.

DAMMIT I CAN'T QUIT WITH ONLY ONE PAGE LEFT.

And with that, it seems he's surpassed everyone who ever came before him. The end and screw this bullcrap.

End
