I've been going over the manga in my mind and something doesn't quite sit right with me. It has to do with these three points
- Akatsuki is trying to get all the biiju.
- Naruto has one of the biiju. (he still has his)
- Orochimaru isn't actaully quite on good-terms with Akatsuki and actually he hates akatsuki and wants them stopped.
Now we get to the problems.
part 1 chapter 148
While departing Itachi says "With Naruto at his current level we have no need to worry."
This implies that Naruto is somehow different than the other biiju. After all, since they are just going to suck the biiju out of Naruto his power level is nwither here nor there. Unless they have something else in store for him and him alone.
part 1 chapter 168:
As Naruto is dying kyubi says "Why is it getting dark, why is my power fading?" implying that if Naruto dies, Kyuubi dies with him. In the same Chapter Orochimaru says "That boy doesn't look good...*I can't believe he has become this strong...If Akatsuki got their hands on this kid it would be trouble." and then tries to kill him -clearly indicating also that a dead Naruto would mean an end to the kyubi problem.
This again seems to suggest that Naruto's power level is something of relevance. Both Akatsuki and Oro seem bothered by it, yet why?
part 2 chapter 296:
Kabuto says "If we let you live you may kill of another Akatsuki member for us" Which is repeated by Orochimaru at the end.
1. So here's what I don't understand. Orochimaru is no fool. He probably knows what Akatsuki are up to and he knows that giving Naruto up to them would be a huge pain. YET, rather than polish off Naruto when he had the chance he decided to "let him live" in order to finish off an Akatsuki member or :
2. Orochimaru has to know that finishing off Naruto would be the quicker and easier method of messing up Akatsuki's plans. He certainly seemed to know it in part 1 but has since changed his mind. It's all very odd if you ask me.
