How's he ever going to be intelligent if he keeps letting people hit him in the head. No wonder Sasuke is still so far ahead of him when it comes to intelligence.
Its not about Sasuke doing something for him. He's saying if they kill Sasuke then the village will not like it, because he is their missing-nin. This could start a war. Also if another village kills Sasuke, they could get access to the "secrets of the village" or whatever.

It's the exact opposite. They're labeled missing-nin so that their ties with their designated village can be righteously cut should they commit a crime in the future. They're usually targets of elimination too, if they hold valuable information.
"Their" missing-nin? If Tsunade had labeled him a missing-nin to begin with, they wouldn't have been in this struggle with the cloud right now.

Yeah, well.. unlike Naruto he wasn't born stupid, it's obviously in him to be like that >_>. Naruto shows a level head and a calm determined personality from time to time, I just wish we could see more of it and less of his stupid "comical relief" moments.
I'm not, but I think people are just drawing prejudgmental conclusions based on what they've seen in the spoilers.. bet they had a bit high hopes for him.
We don't even know what is to follow after he's gotten his beating >_>
that's right, we must not jump into conclusions. i mean it is just a chapter, just a small fraction in the big plot that is to come, and i am pretty sure that for thos who have high hopes on naruto, when his strength will be needed im sure he will be there at his full
In a steady procession, the 5 Kages depart for the conference grounds!
454: Entry of the 5 Kages!
Earth Shinobi: "Kurotsuchi, Akatsuchi, we're counting on you!"
"Tsuchikage-sama, go smash on those foreign leaders!"
Tsuchikage: "Getting to this conference is a hassle at my age. My back's killin' me; feels like I'm strapped to a ticking time bomb, but you young'uns wouldn't know anything 'bout what I have to go through!"
Tsuchikage-sama is a short old man
Kurotsuchi: "Then it's 'bout time you retire, right ya old fart? Don't go on dragging out your glory days."
Kurotsuchi's face looks like a mishmash of Anko and Sai
Akatsuchi: "Ahahaha! And I'll carry Tsuchikage-sama's baggage for him!"
Akatsuchi's body is huge and his face is like Anpanman's
Tsuchikage: "Leave it be! I don't want your help, Akatsuchi!"
He goes to carry the box like a backpack but then his back goes *crack*
Tsuchikage: "Aaaaaaugh, my back!"
Kurotsuchi: "What you gonna do? Gonna bring someone else along?"
Tsuchikage: "Fool, who the hell do you think I am?! This is Oonoki of Ryou-tenbin, the feared Tsuchikage you're talking about here!"
Akatsuchi picks up Tsuchikage's stuff without missing a beat
2nd part
Water Shinobi: "We trust you with Mizukage-sama. Don't let her work you too hard."
Ao: "I got it."
Ao has an eyepatch over the right eye with clothes like Shizune, and chestnut-shaped hair
Mizukage: "Chourou-sama*, I will do a proper job going forward and representing the name of the Mizukage."
[*chourou means eldest or chief*]
*look at picture for description of Mizukage*
Water Shinobi: "As one of the Seven Shinobi-gatana, you must take care to protect Mizukage-sama."
Choujuurou (The 7 Mist Swordsman): "Ye...yes. It will...probably be...alright, I think."
*look at picture of Choujuurou for description*
Mizukage: "Be more confident. You're strong... that's why I chose you to be my escort to the conference, Choujuurou."
Choujuurou: "Ah-yes. I-I think I can give it my all...probably." (She's such a kind lady...)
Ao: "Just leave it at 'yes'! My heavens, what do you expect to accomplish with an attitude like that?! See, that's why I declare the kids these days need some good-old-fashioned *konki*[perserverance/tenacity] to whi-"
Mizukage: ("*Konki*?)[marriageable age]
Water Shinobi: "Ao, enough with the preaching already. If you don't hurry and get a move on, you'll be "late"!"
Mizukage: (Marriageable age...is late?!)
Ao: "You'd be well advised to take your own advice. Why, back in our day we-"
The Mizukage goes by Ao and whispers in his ear:
"Shut up or I'll kill you."
Ao: (Uh...)
Mizukage: "Well, Choujuurou, Ao, it's time we set off."
Choujuurou: (I will protect the sweet Mizukage's smile!...if I can do something.")
3rd part
Raikage: "Still no contact with Samui's platoon?"
Personal assistant(?): "Yes sir, though I do think it will only take a little while longer for some contact. Besides, Raikage-sama, Samui has been notified in advance of the route to the conference. Either way, a messenger bird should be coming since there's no contact during their trip."
Raikage: "AL-RIGHT we good now? It's time for me to make my way over there! Come on, Shii, Darui! Time to roll!"
Long story short: Shii's the white ninja, and Darui's the black ninja. "Shii" could be as in the letter "C". "Darui" is written in katakana but it could mean "sluggish, slow, heavy, etc."
Shii: "Hah!"
Darui: "Ossu"
Raikage: "Follow me!"
He goes out of his way to make a gaping hole in the room, in his rush to get out. (lol kinda like Shuuzou Matsuoka)
Personal assistant(?): "*Huff* Not again!"
Shii: "Let's go Darui"
Darui: "Uh no. Usually I leave through the door...now you're tellin' me to go on ahead just so we can catch up to him.."
4th part
Choujuurou's katana aren't shown completely
However, even counting the two katana he carries, there's also a cord or something strapped to his body which has something like nunchuks attached
Naruto's turn
He's in front of a small cabin
(Pushed) to the wall by Karui
Karui: "Now, tell what you know of Sasuke at once."
Naruto remembers Sasuke
Karui: "Spill it out; everything that you know about him."
Naruto remembers Kakashi, Sakura, and Sasuke
Karui: "What's the matter? Hurry up and talk!"
Naruto with a dejected expression
"I just can't do it after all...I can't sell Sasuke out like that"
Karui gets pissed
She pushes Naruto to the wall
"Don't start ****ing around with me! We came all the way over here so what the hell are you babbling about now?!"
Naruto: (But...)
He remembers Shikamaru's words
(Sasuke's one of us, a fellow shinobi of Konohagakure! That's why we risk our lives to save him! That's the way of Konoha.)
He remembers Sakura's words
(Naruto, this is...my one and only wish. Just bring Sasuke-kun...bring him back...)
Karui draws closer to him
"Hey, you there! Say something!"
5th part
Naruto remembers Minato
(To be a shinobi means to battle with that hatred...every shinobi fights against it)
He remembers Nagato
(But if we take revenge to be justice, that justice will give birth to more revenge; and so the cycle of hatred begins.)
Naruto: "I understand that feeling of selfishness...but I can't sell out Sasuke"
Karui gets pissed, nearly bursting a blood vessel in her forehead
"Mother-****er!"
Naruto: "Believe me, I understand your feelings of wanting revenge! But if you let hatred take its' course and manage to kill Sasuke, next time my companions won't take it lying down and they may answer you back the same way! You'll just open up a whole vicious cycle! Companions having to protect one other will (get involved), so it'll just end up with you killing each other off!"
Omoi just keeps silent, listening
Karui: "The one who started it all in the first place was your precious Sasuke! As if I give a shit about him! I'm gonna kill him!"
Omoi: "So... what should we do with the hatred that we carry? How do we demand accountability?!"
Naruto is dejected
Naruto: "...Then just knock me around till you're satisfied. That's the only thing I can offer-"
Karui gives him a straight right hook
That's settled pretty nicely! [trans note: I'm guessing this is the spoiler writer's thoughts, lol]
Karui gives him a beating, looks like he's been hit by a freight train* [trans note: idiomatic expression. literally as if Naruto was taken to horseback riding]
Karui: "Don't go spouting off whatever suits you! We'll try it out and see whether or not this can satisfy us! Koraa!"
Beat-down
Sai watches this scene from the shadow of a tree
6th part
Anbu: "Anko shook off Dajimu and Tera's tail on her... Should we 'handle' her now?"
Danzou's in the Hokage outfit
"This is an important period...I hope to avoid the chance of messing up the situation worse than it is. Increase the personnel even more... capturing Kabuto is more important than Anko going forward."
(That man most likely knows of my dealings with Orochimaru)
Danzou: "Kabuto carries all the data Orochimaru collected in his human experiments....data I shall obtain since it should be quite helpful for my right eye and arm."
The tense eve of the 5 Kage conference!
End
NAME CLARIFICATIONS:
Tsuchikage's escorts:
Akatsuchi (่ตคใใ) - The huge guy with the goofy face. His name means "red earth".
Kurotsuchi (้ปใใ) - The woman. Her name means "black earth".
Mizukage's escorts:
Choujuurou (้ทๅ้) - The teenager and one of the Seven Swordsmen. His name is a type of Asian pear, which ties in with the surnames of Zabuza, Kisame, and Suigetsu, which are also named after fruits (Momochi = peach, Hoshigaki = persimmon, Hoozuki = winter cherry).
Ao (้) - The older guy. His name means "blue". His name and clothing are very similar to Haku's (Haku (็ฝ) means "white").
Raikage's escorts:
Shii (ใทใผ) - White guy. Shii (ใทใผ or ใใผ) isn't a Japanese name or word at all, so I couldn't really come up with a concrete etymology. Could be a western word/name, or stylized from shii (ใใ), but that would just be speculation.
Darui (ใใซใค) - Black guy. Darui (ใ ใใ) is Japanese for slow or sluggish, which seems to match up with what personality can be seen, since he talks slowly or in a laid back way.
Who cares about Naruto? We just got introduced to a sexy post-op Madara. Now we know why Itachi said he was just a shell of his former self.
But really do you think shes actually the mizukage? She does say "In the Name of the Mizukage." So either shes talking about herself, which would be weird, or shes talking about someone else AKA Madara. Maybe shes the figure head for Mizugakure but Madara is the figure head.
It's the exact opposite. They're labeled missing-nin so that their ties with their designated village can be righteously cut should they commit a crime in the future.This is true. I already know this, and have not said anything differently.
They're usually targets of elimination too, if they hold valuable information.
Already said this. If Sasuke was hunted, his body would hold secrets unique to Uchiha clan members and the Sharingan eye. The Uchihas may be on the brink of extinction, but if another country has info on the Sharingan it could cause a hassle for Kakashi."Their" missing-nin? If Tsunade had labeled him a missing-nin to begin with, they wouldn't have been in this struggle with the cloud right now.Sasuke has been established as a missing-nin by people from Konoha many times...
Yeah, well.. unlike Naruto he wasn't born stupid, it's obviously in him to be like that >_>. Naruto shows a level head and a calm determined personality from time to time, I just wish we could see more of it and less of his stupid "comical relief" moments.
I'm glad you guys agree with me on Naruto being both pathetic and retard for taking those punches.
He's an idiot who doesn't see the bigger picture. That other female cloud shinobi is already getting information on Sasuke, and Raikage plans on killing him no matter what. If the Raikage orders those 2 cloud shinobis who are currently beating Naruto, if he asks them to kill Sasuke they will have to obey, making Naruto's efforts worthless. That's why I think Naruto is really dumb, they're still going to try killing Sasuke anyway.
