This chapter is basically drama, skip it if you hate drama, read it if you want to see early Minato badassness and Naruto being owned by someone that is not named Haruno Sakura.
On the previous chapter, Kushina appeared out of nowhere and so this chapter explains why the hell Kushina was there and their love story, like before, I will post the snippets that I find interesting.
Spoiler Warning! This chapter is not yet available in North America or given a full volume treatment. Just drool over these pictures coming from my favorite scanlation site before the publishers wagged an all out war against them. Peace.
Thinking that her mom is the Kyuubi's true form, he is now tasting her mom's fist of fury.
Drama ensues.
Since Kushina doesn't want a Pokemon to interfere with her chat with her son, she uses Secret Power... and its Super Effective!
Ah... So basically, you are Mrs. Potter and your husband is Mr. Potter and you casted a charm on your son against a Pokemon. I see where this arc is going.
And so, I quote a popular line coming from C. M. Burns of The Simpsons, "Dream on, bitch."
This explains why Jiraiya said the former village of Whirlpool is some chapter!
I knew it! His wife also thinks he is a girly man! Oh, it looks like we have a Hyuga behind Minato!
To create a really good impression, Kushina said those lines but...
Her classmates think she is Chiyo from Azumanga Daioh I mean, she looks like a tomato.
Because of this, her classmates experienced hell.
And this is Minato's dream... like father, like son.
This sorta explains why she was able to drove out that Pokemon!
At a very young age, Minato shows signs of badasstry, I smell this chapter will be turned into a two or three parter arc!
This is extremely cheesy!
Yellow Flash + Red Habanero = Orange Hokage. Makes sense.
Naruto Chapter 498 is now available on Manga Stream!
