The Path of Defeat: I See Only One Way Out

Seriously for the past two chapters people have been saying they think Sasuke will get out of it this way, or so and so will interrupt, blah blah etc etc. I don't believe 99.9% of the ways people are saying.

If you really think about it as in the effect the outcome of this fight will have on the story, then there's only one logical outcome. Sasuke will defeat Itachi will Orochimaru's help. Now before you start saying Oro's gone forever, etc, honestly ask yourself do you think Kishi would kill off Oro like that again just for him to disappear for good? Fuck no. Come on people I think it's clear that as soon as Oro appeared he would play a big part in this fight. Oro may be gone, but not for good, even if he is gone until this fights over I think he left something behind or has some way of helping Sasuke.

I mean what do they both want? Itachi dead! Now I don't know if Oro cares if he kills Itachi off by himself, or with Sasuke's help, but it's guaranteed Sasuke would be pissed if he defeated Itachi only because of Oro's help. It's not clear how this will happen, or how Oro could help Sasuke, but I think somehow Sasuke will get ahold of Orochimaru's chakra, etc to help him. It's the only way that I can see.

The possibility of anyone interfering is 0, unless Naruto and company somehow wtfpwn Madara, or Team Hebi get's by Kisame. And the possibility of them getting past those beasts is next to nil. Kabuto is the only one who would have a remote chance of suddenly appearing.

Not only would this outcome end Itachi's role in the manga, but it would also drive Sasuke nuts, and his revenge wouldn't be complete. What do you think?
 
My initial prediction was that Sasuke will prove that, with his acquired power, he can overcome/survive all of Itachi's justu, but still won't be able to finish the fight in a way that leaves him satisfied. Itachi can die, but Sasuke will not like how it happens.
 
Little do you know that Kabuto hates Sasuke more then he hates Itachi for the sheer fact that Sasuke murdered Orochimaru. Now unless he's been spectating this fight without us or anyone (Zetsu) realizing he was there is pretty much impossible at this point.

So why would Kabuto show up to help Sasuke defeat Itachi. If he were to show up he would most likely attempt to kill them both.
 
Susano'o must have a weakness.

For one it probably can't use its sword on Sasuke--Itachi wants his eyes intact.

2nd it still hasn't been explained how or why Itachi escaped the inescapable Kirin. Or how Susano enabled him to do it.

3rd Sasuke doesn't have to kill Susano, he just has to kill Itachi.

I think he still has a chance despite Itachi's confident demeanor.

Sasuke sould be pissed with the outcome of this fight for the sake of plot and himself. For me he already lost when he let Oro out. But can't we have it leaving Itachi alife? You upset me :(

Itachi is going to die one way or another, if Madara himself has to do it. Besides what would be the point of him living? I don't think I could take another fight between these to, this fight has been disappointing. :(
 
Yeah, I also think it's very likley that Orochimaru will have a part to play in this battle . . . :amuse

Orochimaru doesn't die that easily. I think Orochimaru will be involved in some way and it will be intreresting to see how that will effect Sasuke during the battle and after the battle. Perhaps that is what Kishimoto meant by saying he will focus on Sasuke. Sasuke might not be happy with the battle and have trouble with Orochimaru or something. . . :p
 
I don't believe in the resurrection of Oro anymore. I think he's really gone this time.

The only logical outcome I can think of is that Sasuke gets saved by Naruto, simply because of ideology issues.
I doubt Kishi would let Sasuke win a fight fueled by hate. That's just me though...
 
I agree to a certain extent. But I beleive he was taking over while Susanoo killed a snake bunshin. Sasuke's face was down on the last pannel he was in, and it doesn't show his eyes. Oro could very well have already taken over and has his new body. He never serperated from Sasuke, he was part of him all long. It's obvious that it wasn't Oro who was stabbed, since Oro doesn't have a body of his own. It's far more likely than Sasuke obtaining MS, since he doesn't have enough chakra to use MS abilities. Far more likely than Naruto and co. comming in to save the day. FAR more likely than Madara swooping in to save the day, because he knew they were fighting all along. And finally FAR MORE LIKELY than Sasuke transforming into a freakin hawk.
 
I agree with the premise of this thread. Despite what some people think about Sasuke being sooo noble,etc. I don't know if this fight will have a happy ending for him. His "vision" of Itachi's death already failed, that's a good enough sign things won't be or feel the way he wants them to even if he succeeds.

Relying on Orochimaru is one way, I suppose. Then again, he said he had no promblem with Oro taking him over if they could defeat Itachi like that. But he condradicts this greatly with the "my revenge" comment.

Still, I have a lot of doubts Kishimoto will end this in any other way but Sasuke getting a power up.

He can't use the sword? What makes you think it doesn't only seal when Itachi wants it to? Itachi cut off the heads of the Hydra and they didn't melt away like Orochimaru did. He can have Susanoo cut Sasuke in half and it'd be fine, most likely.

Hydras = BIG.

Orochimaru = smaller.

While the swords effect may have been negligent on the behemoth-esque mass of the hydras. They do seem a bit marring to human scale flesh.

I guess Orochimaru could've belched out a replacement of himself to nullify the effects. But, its influence was so powerful as to seem to not give him much of a chance.

Ergo, I'm thinking Sasuke can't make contact with the sword? -shrug-

Did Oro drop his sword?

Yes, here:

Sasori was overconfident to expose his weak point

eck nvm, I'm totally confused, now.

I assumed the sword Susano wielded had a physical form--since it can chop the heads off of snakes.

BUT

I just read the manga again & it seems to say the sword HAS no physical form so nvm... mrh

Yes, it would be very marring on Sasuke's human flesh if he got hit somehow with Totsuka. However, Itachi only needs his eyes which are in his head, in tact. Proven when he burned Sasuke's lower body with Amaterasu. And like I said before, we don't know if the sword seals on contact since it didn't "seal" the Hydra-them being bigger shouldn't have mattered. Actually, it says "anything and everything it pierces is sealed." So, could go either way.

Anyway this won't ever happen :zaru

But until we know more, I think it's likely the sword is still a threat.
