[Manga] Akatsuki's War

[Manga] The Fourth Great Shinobi World War

A thread for all discussions about the current Great Shinobi War. Discussions about battles, the characters, tactics, who could die, who will become famous, other predictions, long term ramifications, etc, can all go here.

Overview:

With the official forming of the Allied Shinobi Forces, the Fourth Great Shinobi World War has finally kicked into high gear. First declared by Madara Uchiha during the Kage Summit, the war involves the Five Great Shinobi Nations and the Land of Iron. Their opponents are Akatsuki led by Madara Uchiha, Zetsu, Sasuke Uchiha, and their "ally" Kabuto Yakushi. Through Edo Tensei, Kabuto has brought back a number of famous shinobi to fight on his side. The objective of the war is to prevent the capture of the jinchuuriki Kirabi and Naruto Uzumaki. If both are captured, Madara will be able to complete his Eye of the Moon Plan. The plan involves fusing all the tailed beasts back into their original form, the Ten Tailed Beast(Jyuubi). Madara would then become jinchuuriki to the Jyuubi and use his new power to project his Mangekyo Sharingan onto the moon. Therefore creating an eternal genjutsu to enslave the world.
