While Naruto looks like he has reached the end of his path, Sasuke is in a similar predicament, only two people can bring them back to life.

As Sasuke Uchiha has made an appearance, he has left the teams confused as to why he changed sides. Everyone thought he had sided with Lord Orochimaru and vowed to destroy the leaf village after what he discovered from his brother. Shikamaru thinks even less of Sasuke for turning up and doesn't accept him as part of the team. He doesn't have to. Sasuke wants to protect the leaf from further attack as his brother wanted peace above all; though there is the issue of him telling everyone present he will become hokage after the battle

"Dead men shouldn't go round screwing things up!"

The question of why Obito joined forces with Madara is put out there and for Kakashi, the reasons don't make sense. They were comrades back in the day when they trained to be shinobi, and Kakashi still thinks of him as his friend even though they had their differences. This friendship is put to the test when the two of them face-off.

In the stark desert scenery, Gaara has come face to face with his reanimated father who is amazed that he has overcome his hatred and rage and become the kazekage. There are more revelations from him and flashbacks on his past when he was only young and his future at that time uncertain. Viewers get to see a different side to what they have already seen in past episodes, and this time it is the reality of what happened that is the real shocker. This is an emotional episode for fans of the series and Gaara as all the hatred for his father and disappointment at his siblings apparently hating him was unfounded and all is explained in one episode.
