Question on Kabuto (WARNING! SPOILER!)

[Akatsuki]

I heard a rumor that Kabuto was working for the Atasuki as a double agent and was spying on Orichimaru. Is that true, or is there something else, or is it false?

[Rakath]

Geez... it is true, but not for any reason you think its true...

If ya wanna know this stuff, just read the the Naruto 2 manga chapters...

[Green Koolaid]

Yes, Wikipedia has some awsome info at the moment on everything. Check it out.

[ZanarkandAce]

To the best of my knowledge, he was working for Akatsuki, only cause Sasori had his Puppet Jutsu on him, like he did with the one member of Sand. I don't think that Kabuto is working for Akatsuki, honestly.

[Taniya 20]

Kabuto is an agent for the Akatsuki and is Orochimaru's associate. Also, if you were wondering about his red eyes, they force him into a blood lust state, making him extremely resistant to pain, and makes him go crazy temporarily.

Where did you get this information on Kabuto?

[Exiled]

I guess that was rumored at best. The akatsuki at best is still a shroud of mystery. All will come in good time

What do you mean rumored?? its in the manga i read it along time ago it is 100% true

I've read it too about Kabuto being an akatsuki spy but not much has evolved after that point. I need more light of the subject at hand

This is what I was thinking. I didn't see anything about Kabuto having red eyes, or being a puppet of Sasori, so I just wanted to know where the info was from.

[Taniya 20]

Kabuto's red eyes can be seen on Wikipedia. Also, they've already appeared in the Manga and Sasuke said something along the lines of "Who exactly is this Kabuto guy?".

[Krausser]

Yea it was true, he was relaying information on Orochimaru to Sasori.

[Manjyome Thunder]

Wikipedia is far from an official source. Almost anything can be put up on there and called "a fact".

[Obi Qai Gin]

I know the BRIEF time during the chunin exam when Kabuto's eyes turned red, but it seemed nothing further was made of that, so I just ignored it.

I just forgot about that whole thing, it wasnt that important now was it.

[Darth Payne]

Yeah, I thought that would be explained by now.

[Taniya 20]

Also, when he "dropped out" of the Chuunin exam, you remember him mentioning something along the lines "The old me will come out." I believe the "old him" is the red eyed, blood lusting form. Because as you saw, his eyes turnt red while he was being attacked. I guess a certain amount of pain will cause him to change.

[Obi Qai Gin]

Who knows, maybe he's the leader of Akatsuki :(.

[Exiled]

Who knows, maybe he's the leader of Akatsuki :(.
What do they call that again?

Yeah

That so messes up all forms of the storyline. We all know that he has brown hair and its shaped like Naruto's cut

[Obi Qai Gin]

Yeah

It could be his real form, with those red eyes they never explained :(. Anyway, I was just joshing, but you never know.

[ZanarkandAce]

This is what I was thinking. I didn't see anything about Kabuto having red eyes, or being a puppet of Sasori, so I just wanted to know where the info was from.
The puppet one I can confirm for you. It's easy enough...

Chapter 289-290 describes it. I just Jumped on Chapter 290.

Being that Kabuto calls Sasori "Sasori-Sama" means that he is reporting, which is easy enough to see, to his superior. After being "caught" by Orochimaru during the conversation, they break away, and are heard to say:

Kabuto: Orochimaru-Sama, Is that the real Sasori?
Orochimaru: No it's not. Are you telling me that you, one of Sasori's own subordinates, doesn't even know his real face?
Kabuto: He was a dark individual after all, always hiding in that puppet of his...
Yamato: What are you talking about...!? Kabuto, you should be an Akatsuki spy... You should have been under the effects of Sasori's Jutsu all the while...
Kabuto: Ah, yes, that Jutsu... Orochimaru-Sama freed me from it some time ago...

[Ice wizard]

I havent read the manga (wish i could but i flat broke) but when i saw kabutos red eyes during the chunin exam it kinda reminded me of that 1 guy in cowboy bebop with the red eyes when he took a drug anyway it looked like kabuto after getting 2 measiley cuts was going to go ape on those 3 ninjas and their sneaky tricks.

and also i only knew kabuto as orochimaru's subordiant but this does make tons of sense if hes a double agent but then again it depends on when he joined orochimaru as part of the akatsuki and followed orochimaru when he left:cool:

[OogaBooga]

While it's doubtful that Kabuto is working for Akatsuki, it does seem in recent chapters that he's growing tired of serving under Orochimaru. Perhaps they'll synch that in with his whole "red-eyed alter-ego" thing in a later chapter. "Kabuto's rebellion". That'd be cool.

[ZanarkandAce]

While it would be cool to see Kabuto branch out on his own, I don't think that Orochimaru will let Kabuto go... At all... I think that if Kabuto tries to leave, he'll die.

[Akatsuki]

Because as you saw, his eyes turnt red while he was being attacked. I guess a certain amount of pain will cause him to change. I'm not sure, because when Naruto was fighting Kabuto a LONG time ago, Kabuto got hit by a rasengan but he didn't get injured. That's alot of pain but no red eyes. Does the red eyes have something to do with Sharingan?

[OogaBooga]

No, I don't think so. Kishimoto basically forgot about Kabuto's "old blood" and freaky red eyes that we saw during the Chunin exam. The whole Rasengan battle... again, either Kishimoto forgot or Kabuto felt confident he could beat Naruto, even without his "old blood". :cool:

[Ice wizard]

if theirs so much confusion on why he got hit by the rasengan and didnt go into his red eye state, its because he has a mastery in healing by maken new cells heal quickley all at once replaceing the old, thats what he did when naruto hit him with rasengan, he healed his body during the rasengan attack so he wouldnt have taken as much damage which would not make him go to the red eye state.

[Hemostrat]

I highly doubt Kishi forgot about Kabuto's "old blood". So much is unknown about Kabuto at this point, Kishi will get to him eventually.
By the way, he didn't forget about his "Red eyes" because in the manga, they just become blood shot ;)

And Ice wizard, he wasn't hurt by the Rasengan yet after he was hit he coughed up blood and collapsed?

[MagnabladerX4]

I guess that was rumored at best. The akatsuki at best is still a shroud of mystery. All will come in good time

What's the mystery ? Besides the leader's identity never being revealed( it's most likely the fonz), all akatsuki does is send itachi and kisame to kill everyone. They are the friggin organization.

[orange peel]

Well, Kabuto always seems like he's on a different side all the time. Afterall, he was when we found out he worked for Orochimaru. So it might as well be true...

[Darth Payne]

He seems to be rather annoyed with Orochimaru as well sometimes, maybe he'll betray him later.

[MagnabladerX4]

There's gonna be a third party involved, kabuto's like friggin 28, how could the gennin think he was 16 ? the hell ?

Watch, story is gonna need a final arc = kabuto as kishimoto's way out.
It's obvious, i mean, how much screen time does a guy need to think while u zoom in on his face ?

[cartoonist1992]

kabuto didnt get inured by the resengan because he healed him self right b4 it.... it was sometype of jutsu

Who said he was 16?

[MagnabladerX4]

Who said he was 16?

Well i didn't actually calculate his "supposed" age during that part of the story, but the genin did think he was a teenager around their age. Then again it makes sense, they were all 13 at the time, and it was stated that he took the exam " 3 times before already", thus giving me the impression they would think he was 3 years older than them, ='ing 16.

Just my weird way of doing it, i was just stating that they assumed he was around their age.

[Snapper]

Kabuto was 19 during the Chunin Exams if anyone really wants to know.

[MagnabladerX4]

True, but again, that was his Real, current age. Not what gennin squads assumed he was.

[OogaBooga]

They wouldn't necessarily assume anything: some of the Konoha genin are well into adulthood. There was at least one such genin at the Chunin exams (if at first you don't succeed...?).

[MagnabladerX4]

true enough.

[ZanarkandAce]

kabuto didnt get inured by the resengan because he healed him self right b4 it.... it was sometype of jutsu

That was his medical Jutsu at work. He collected Chakra in the spot of the coming attack, and began his cell regeneration right as it hit. He was injured, because he couldn't walk even after healing. He took about 3 steps, and fell over, mentioning that the Rasengan did that much damage even while he was healing.

[crystal]

I dont get the red eyes but when he said the old me might come out i thought that just meant hed act like himself because he was acting weak and also acting 2 be naruto and the others friend.
So i thought he meant he'd get rattled up in the fighting and show his true skills which would be more like him than what he pretended 2 be.
or is there more 2 him?:confused: i so dont get him.

[Hemostrat]

What's the mystery ? Besides the leader's identity never being revealed( it's most likely the fonz), all akatsuki does is send itachi and kisame to kill everyone. They are the friggin organization.

You're joking right? They've been shown fighting twice, Diedara, Sasori, Kakuzu and Hidan have had more manga time then Kisame and Itachi.

[crystal]

kabuto seems evil & nice whats up wiv that???

[SmittySensei]

kabuto seems evil & nice whats up wiv that???

He's a spy, that's how they roll.

I just assumed the old me comment was his normal Jonin self, which he didn't want to show due to spying at the time.
