A few things: I like how people keep pointing out exactly what I pointd out. When I mentioned Peins lack of handsigns I mentioned the only exception might be Animal Realm.
I also mentioned thatNagato may be channeling jutsu through the 6 paths, casting them for them.
Come on guys, I would LOVE to see a rescue Naruto arc. Think about it this way: The balance of power right now I tipped in such a way that all of Konoha is depending on Naruto. It would be appropriate for the scales of power to tip the other way, even if only briefly. It would also give us a chance to catch up on other carecters development.
I can't be the only one curious to see what Neji, Hinata, Shino, Chouji, Garaa, Kiba and Sakura can do now. We haven't seen too much of them in Shippuden.
Also: The theroy about Naruto receiving a burst of power I plausable. I believe he has one Kagebushin left in Myokobuzan and, correct me if Im wrong, but I believe that if a caster of a jutsu is rendered unconcious that jutsu ends. If that happens the Kagebushin will poof, presumably channeling its gathered sage chakra to Naruto.
That brings me to a question of mine: Why do they have to summon the Kagebushin in or to dispell it? Does the transfer ability have a limited range? Does the ending of Kagebushin have a limited range? It really doesn't make a whole lot of sense from what we know about Kagebushin.
Back to the unconciousness thing: I know this is true for Genjutsu, Im not sure about summons, and Kagebushin may be in the summons category.
