Whoa! This chapter was simply crazy!!!!
Highlights:
* Naruto is half dead, with Gaara vowing to save his friend (and probably keeping a bijjuu promise)

* Tobirama being total bad ass while getting owned by super OP Madara.

_@:
* Sasuke getting stabbed...in the heart (poor emo kid). :dead:
Things that made me go

:
* What did zetsu mean by "the 'insides' are surprisingly good!"?
* Madara saying he's "nurturing a new eye[,]" but not sure it will "stick" with him. What is he implying?
* zetsu's words...I'm just so confused by them (pg 17). No1 except Tobi needs help at that moment and he's not part of their team so why say that?
My thoughts:
Sasuke - It's unclear that he'll get a Rinnengan or a healing tech by the doings of 1st Hokage. As Hashi stated that the technique he's giving him is a binding technique that counters sage mode. More specifically, a binding technique used in the event that sage mode is stolen by Madara. Seems to me that Hashi had planned out a counter strategy for such events; some ninjutsu like izanami, but for sage mode (or was it izanagi?).
I believe what's gonna happen is that Sakura is gonna step in (however unlikely) and somehow save Sasuke (and Naruto) from total death, while the Kages, Kakashi, etc, keep Madara busy in the process. All while time is ticking because the statue is once again changing its form. The tensions are high, and the stakes are even higher! That, or Hashi's chakra is gonna plot-no-jutsu into saving Sasuke in some form; something that 1st Hokage wasn't intending.
Who knows? Maybe we'll see Orichimaru finally come out of thin air to save his precious Sasuke.
In short:
I. CANT. WAIT. TILL. NEXT. WEEEEEK!!!!!! :nuts:
