Predictions: Naruto Manga 392

It’s obvious as the title says, next week will finally be the conclusion for the Uchiha battle, or won’t it?

Predictions: I looked up Wikipedia and checked out what Susano meant but the closest I could find was ‘Susanoo‘ so I’m guessing it’s the same thing. It probably is because Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi is also mentioned in the article. Apparently, Susanoo is the Shinto god of the sea and storms. According to the Japanese myths, Susanoo is the brother of the goddess of the sun Amaterasu and of the god of moon, Tsukuyomi. All three of them were born when Izanagi was cleaning himself after escaping the underworld, or some crap like that. Anyway, Amaterasu came to life when Izanagi washed out his left eye, Tsukuyomi became alive when Izanagi washed out his right eye, and Susanoo came about when Izanagi cleaned his nose.

– Taken from Wikipedia.org –

“Sources tell of long-standing rivalry between Susanoo and his sister. When he was to leave Heaven by orders of Izanagi, he went to bid his sister goodbye. Amaterasu, suspicious, proposed a challenge on the spot: each of them was to transform an object of the other’s into people. Amaterasu created three women from Susanoo’s sword while he created five men from her necklace. Claiming the men were hers because they were born of her necklace, Susanoo destroyed her rice fields, hurled a flayed pony at her loom, and killed one of her attendants in a fit of rage. Amaterasu, in fury and grief, hid inside Ama-no-Iwato, the “heavenly rock cave,” thus effectively hiding the sun for a long period of time.

Though she was persuaded to leave the cave, Susanoo was punished by being banished from Heaven. He descended to the province of Izumo, where he met an elderly couple. Seven of their eight daughters had been devoured by the eight-headed serpent Yamata-no-Orochi and it was about to come for the eighth, Kushinada-hime (櫛名田比売, Kushinada-hime^?). After the couple promised their daughter’s hand in marriage to Susano’o, he agreed to slay Orochi. With the aid of eight bowls of sake (one for each head), Susano’o decapitated the monster once it had fallen asleep.

From one of Orochi’s tails, Susanoo pulled out a sword, which he named Ama-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi (”Sword of the Gathering Clouds of Heaven”), later known as the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi. The sword was presented to Amaterasu as a reconciliation gift and was later given to her descendant Ninigi along with the Yata-no-Kagami (a mirror) and magatama (sacred jewels) as proof of his divine right to rule.”

– End –

So now I think Itachi’s final jutsu has something to do with the sea and storms. Sasuke’s probably going to lose somewhere in the middle or beginning of the chapter before finally killing Itachi. And yes, I still think Sasuke will win no matter what. However, I also now come to believing that Itachi isn’t going to die yet. Like someone mentioned a while ago in the predictions section, we still have to know what Itachi told Naruto before fighting Sasuke. I think, although it’s a very very slight chance, that Itachi is in fact good, or has a good intention for wanting Sasuke’s eyes other than the fact of overpowering Madara. Then again, he could’ve just informed Naruto of who Madara is and that he has to watch his back. I’m hoping that by the next chapter, the secret message will be revealed and the battle between the Uchiha brothers will finally come to a ‘conclusion.’ After that, I really want to know what secret code Jiraiya wrote to Tsunade before he died, and I really wanna know Pein’s true identity. Anyway, Sasuke will win but Itachi will still live.
