In the race to get to Tsunade, the chosen next Hokage, it’s evil Orochimaru who beats Naruto to the punch. He has a devilish choice and Tsunade has an impossible decision to make. Evil reigns in the next riveting volume of Naruto!

That Orochimaru is one seriously bad dude. He cuts Tsunade to the quick and she shows her power. Awesome! Her assistant is no slouch either. But Orochimaru promises her the impossible. Can he deliver? Can he really bring back the dead? He says he can – at a price in human lives! There’s always a catch with this snake.

The latest eps (89-92) have a bunch of surprises. Naruto and the Pervy Sage catch up to Tsunade and make her an offer, one she might go to shocking lengths to refuse! And there’s a bet from the powerful sannin and gambler, Naruto has 1 week to master the Fourth Hokage’s jutsu when he faces off with her. His pride is over a barrel but you know Naruto, he’ll do it. Believe it! Too bad there seems to be one or two people putting a monkey into these works. Tsunade goes off to face Orochimaru alone, but is it to kill him or take his offer? And surprise of all surprises, someone turns traitor this round!

The volume has some tense episodes and there’s a good look into Tsunade and what makes her tick. It explains a lot about what she’s doing. And she has a wicked cool right hand gal who can fight with the best of them too. There’s also more going on in this deal breaker than meets the eye so hold on Naruto fans, things are about to get feisty!


EXTRAS:
Extra goodies include Shonen Jump manga, anime, game and Toonami Jetstream ads. Plus each volume of season 2 of Naruto comes in a cool looking blue DVD case.


IN SUMMARY:
It’s deals left right and center with the fate of the Leaf Village in the middle in this volume. More action and a lot of character development in the latest exciting round of Naruto!
