Oh, before I answer, I'm sorry: I wrote the previous post in a hurry and it may have looked I was arguing with you, did not mean to offend.i was simply saying that it goes with the pattern and with the kishi interview. givin that ASSUMING that she does die what do u think will happen with hokage?? ino she may grow up from other circumstances. but what if???......your opinion??
Yes, it's true that Kishi's pattern so far was to kill senseis. But it is also true that he tends to create a pattern and suddenly break it, that's why I believe there is a possibility for Tsunade not to die: it would be unexpected. That's why I'm a bit undecided about her dying.
The hokage question is difficult to me: everyone assumes Kakashi would become the Hokage. Of course, he has the strength and capability to become one, only I cannot view him behind paperwork. After all, Jiraiya was meant to be the 5th and they had to go and find Tsunade.
It is really hard for me to picture most of the senseis sitting down all day long, especially Gai!
It may seem silly, but what about DAnzou? Regardless of our liking or disliking him. He has political power, he controls the ANBU, and in the manga, the elders still support him. He may have powers we don't know of.
Otherwise, I guess we shall be introduced to another new character, like when Tsunade became the Hokage. Or else Sakura, who nobody views in the battlefield! She is the intelligent study type and can be assisted by Tsunade's assistant (cannot recall her name). And for Danzou it would be a good way to keep her away from finding Sasuke, and to be able to try to control her which he loves, and to remain powerful from behind the scene without risking his life by holding the most important position in the Leaf.
What an awsome picture: after attacking the leaf and killing the elders, and finding Naruto is not there, Sasuke, Madara and Pein go back to Konoha to kill everyone, and Sasuke finds he would have to kill... Sakura!
Do you think that possible? Considering in the Kishi universe Itachi became good?
