Hey all, so of course a common argument against Sasuke's natural ability thus far is that Orochimaru and the Sound 4 had him taking steroids in order to make him stronger, faster, able to utilize the full extent of the heaven curse mark.

However, I was reviewing the manga chapters in which Sasuke initially leaves konohagakure. And I'm a little confused, in this page we see Sakon handing sasuke the pill bottle used for his CS2 incubation.



Now, this is me reading the chapter here on the base, so i havent seen this chapter under any other translation, but the translation note at the bottom of the page reads that the Seishingan is a hallucinogen or psychostimulant, NOT a sort of performance or physical enhancement. If anything I would describe this treatment as a trial more than a handout. (Tripping out in a sealed container for hours after being told you have to die 'once' lol.)

Now if this is NOT the occurence that people are reffering to when they talk about sasuke taking Orochimaru steroids, simply direct me to the manga page that discusses it more specifically, Im only meaning to clear this issue up because it confuses me lol.

-- Thanks to anyone who can help

Thank you, youre the first to compliment my sig:) + Kirin is supposed to be forbidden IMO for example when sasuke wants to use it against sakura naruto sai and yamato Oro himself stops Sasuke but there can be an other reason for that too (that Oro wants naruto and konoha ninjas to kill more akatsuki members as they killed sasori and thats why he doesnt want sasuke to kill them) . And Sasuke is on Kabuto's pills (soldier pills for example)

Ahh ok, makes sense, but there isnt any on-panel evidence of sasuke taking pills from orochimaru other than the forest chapter in pt. 1 with the sound 4? or anyone claiming for sure that he took them?

The Naruto fanboys only got an asummption from the weakest Senju/hokage in history. Who cares what they think. Team 7 got their ass blitzed and pwned.
