I just read the *********** translation, and I was actually quite surprised that it didn't change much. But after reading the chapter in both translations, more than one time, I can confirm that the "Sasuke turning evil" thing is entirely false, and here's why:

What Sasuke said after combining his attack with Naruto's, has nothing to do with him turning evil.

As you can see in the scan above: He simply says, "Burn!"; he is directing this towards the crippled Juubi. Yes, it's that simple... No secret motives, nothing.

Now, what Sai is saying above - while intriguing at first - is completely mitigated by Sasuke's actions in the recent chapters. Sai is talking about "Sasuke's aim", as in, the latter stating that he wants to become Hokage, and right the wrongs of the previous Hokage, and we did see Jugo looking a bit skeptical about this, a couple of chapters ago... Which is why he replies saying "Hell, if I know..."​




tl;dr? There is nothing hinting at Sasuke turning evil in this chapter. Sai is basically reiterating what the Rookies - and Jugo - felt after hearing Sasuke's statement.

No don't put them to rest, it'll be boring otherwise. I encourage differing opinions

Yeah. But why have those "differing opinions", when they are based on false interpretation?

That is a super cocky overconfident statement.

your GUESS may be 100% right, just wait and see.

LOL. Well, I see him saying that as a basic taunt; nothing more, nothing less.

That is a super cocky overconfident statement.

If clarifying something, makes me "super cocky" and "overconfident". Then so be it... Just know that I'm only deducing facts using common sense, and clear implications.

I'm not one of those that says sasuke turns evil again or whatever.. i do think he isn't open about his motives.. just because he has good intentions... "nothing does more harm as good intentions" - milton friedman..

But anyway.. who are you to say that your interpretation is correct and therefor others are undoubtely false.

People on this base,mostly,can't interpret situation,my friend.
The huys who are going yeah he is evil will get dissappointed at the end and say Kishi ruined the manga....

anyways.add this if u like to strengthen ur statement to make those i***ts understand more precisely-
What I mean is Sai's comment doesn't matter as long as naruto don't sense any evil intentions in Sasuke,right.Considering he can sense emotions,yet is all okay without a hinch shows that Sasuke is really good.You can say the same for karin,she too didn't found any cold chakra.

As far as the look of his face go,I think he is like that,considering he just used Susano which symbolises the darkness,thus the panel with shades."Burn ".....he was commenting that for the jubi.

Because the *********** translation clarifies it, and makes it clear that there was in fact a false interpretation.

Sai had no emotion. He was trained for a simple task. Even he still cannot understand Sakura & Naruto & Kakashi.
Jugo was loyal to Sasuke.
Manga are based of Drawing / Pictures.
Whereas, Fiction are using words and sentences.
Just take a good look at the pictures; and the balloon. Translating the words can be misleading.
"Don't just jump into conclusion and/or assumption.
