Naruto 444 is now uploaded by Onemanga. In the previous issue, Naruto was finally able to defeat the 6th incarnation of Pain using the Kagebunshin and the Rasengan. After dealing with Pain, he was also able to locate where the real Nagato was and immediately pursued him so he can finally confront the person behind the “destruction” of Konoha.
Issue Review
As soon as Naruto finds Nagato you could already feel the atmosphere and mood of the manga become darker and heavier. If I were to describe Nagato, he’s a really EMO kid who has given up on life. And that’s what this particular issue is all about. Naruto 444 is an emo festival.
After a brief exchange of words, Naruto dashes toward Nagato to finally do him in. However, he stops mid-way as he realizes all the teachings of Jiraya and his other mentors. He manages to stop himself from killing Nagato. The two begin another conversation, and this time Nagato finally opens up and tells his story – why he was driven to become as twisted, angsty, and angry as he is now.
Nagato mentions two major sources of pain. In this issue, he explains the first. Basically he saw his parents get killed by Konoha ninja. The Konoha ninja thought that Nagato’s parents were enemy ninja and killed them by mistake. And obviously this ticked Nagato off.
The issue ends there. Next week we’ll probably see what his other source of pain is – but I think it will have something to do with his comrades.

I think nagato is being controlled by Madara. Like how Madara tamed the Kyubi. *lol, theories.* Nagato and Naruto will team up to beat the real enemy, Madara. I hope Sasugay will die too.
Nagato is like Sasugay… Emolicious.

@Tatazorz:
Yeah i’m thinking the same as you…sasuke is needed on the scene(That gay bastard), you’re right the real enemy is madara and the ninja system; which Yondaime hokage aka naruto’s fajar(lol austin powers), aka Minato said to him.
@topic:

Did you guys noticed naruto’s eyes in that chapter becomes the combination of the sage mode and the fox power? That made his eyes like a cross. If he can use both power then he’s now imba. ^_^
