CHAPTER 263 - Loud Fury

Sasori questions Itachi    The extraction ritual is complete.  The Akatsuki leader orders Sasori and Deidara to stay behind and capture the Jinchuuriki (Naruto) when they break into the cave.  Sasori asks Itachi what kind of bastard the the Kyuubi Jinchuuriki is.  Itachi only says that Naruto will be easily identifiable because at the beginning, he’ll shout loudly andThat's a big rock then rush at them.  With that, Itachi’s shadow form vanishes along with that of the other members.  The Akatsuki leader releases the summoned statue jutsu and disappears too after telling Sasori and Deidara he’ll be in contact when they capture Naruto.

Radios on, headband check    Outside the cave, Team Kakashi and Team Guy are ready to break in.  The boulder blocking the entrance is protected by a five seal barrier.  Along with the paper seal on the boulder itself, there are four other token seals spread out in the surrounding valley.  Negi uses Bykugan to quickly find the other four.  But they are spread several hundred meters apart from one another.  Since Team Guy is the faster team, they will be the ones to seek out the other seals while Naruto and the others will break into the cave.  Guy pulls out someSakura punch strap-on radios from his backpack and distributes them to everyone.  When Guy, Negji, Lee and Tenten have each removed their respective seals, they will contact Kakashi so his team can remove the final seal and demolish the boulder.

trap activated    With Neji’s directions, Team Guy locates all the seals and proceeds to detach them.  At he cave entrance, Kakshi peels off the final seal and Sakura rushes forward to decimate the boulder in one punch.  In the surrounding valley, Guy’s team is about to return to the cave when clones of themselves rise out of the earth itself.  A trap was activated after the seals were removed.  Neji notes the deviousness of Akatsuki’s trap because it deliberately divided their four-man team into individuals so they cannot use teamwork to defeat the clones before them.
Are we too late?
    With Guy’s team stalled, Team Kakashi has no choice but enter the cave without support.  Across the vast cavern, they see Sasori and Deidara.  Kakashi spots Deidara sitting atop the motionless body of Naruto is enragedGaara and wonders if they are too late.  Deidara asks which of them is the Jinchuuriki.  An enraged Naruto immediately jumps forward and shouts he’ll smash them into pieces.  Sasori and Deidara agree without a doubt who Kyubi’s Jinchuuriki is.
