Opens with Kakashi having a flashback to when he was young. He remembers Obito and Rin from his original squad. He then remembers all of Naruto's friends. He says he was unable to protect Rin and broke his promise, and that he'll be there soon. Now Kakashi is walking in a dark area until he comes across a fire with a man in front of it. Kakashi sits down by the man and it's revealed it is his father. He wants Kakashi to tell everything about himself to him. Kakashi's real body is slumped over in the rubble.

Naruto is standing in the forest with Papa Toad. They're trying to master the Sage transformation technique, but because of the Nine Tails, Papa Toad can't complete it. Naruto freaks out cause this basically means he can't fully use the Sage techniques.

At Konoha, Pain's other body is summoning and the other is moving forward. The group that was tapping into Pain's mind seems to have figured everything out. They also find out that the master of six paths used the Rinnegan, which basically lets him use any technique. Outside the summon starts attacking. The ANBU counters with multiple, powerful elemental techniques. The summon is some sort of Cerberus, but the ANBU figure they need to find Pain to defeat it. Pain summons another creature. It looks like some stone rhino and breaks through the wall of the intelligence bureau. Tsunade's slugs come in to help protect the group from Pain's summon. One of the guys recognizes him, but he was a corpse then. So this confirms that he's just a body controlled by Pain. Tsunade's body guard (I'm blanking on her name, sorry) also realizes that Fukasaku said only one body can use one technique and that the Pain's body they were analyzing earlier was the one who could summon. She decides to take Inoichi with her to figure out what's going on.

We see Konohamaru hiding behind some rubble.

Anyway, I have mixed feelings on Kakashi and his possible/probable death . . . on the one hand, that's what sometimes happens when you overextend your self . . . you die of exhaustion. So from a realistic standpoint, I don't know if I can complain. That said, I'm now REALLY pissed that Chouji, Neji, and arguably Kiba went through far worse in the Sasuke-Retrieval arc, but still made it out alive, despite not conceivably having their wounds attended to for a very long time.

Anyway, I'm glad the Kyuubi has made mastering Sage Mode difficult. Heck, I'm just glad to see the guy again. In the interest of not increasing powerlevels even further, I really hope that Naruto loses the Kyuubi sooner or later in the story, and in return gains mastery of Sage Mode. Unfortunately, that probably won't happen, and Naruto will get both, which I'm probably going to groan long & hard about . . . we'll see.

Final note . . . the ANBU were USEFUL (and actually pretty cool, I might add). Who'd a thought?
