Naruto Shippuden Episode 55

     I’d like to get some screenshots, but I’m not exactly sure where to find any/how to get some easily. Help or advice on this topic would be appreciated!

Summary: Well, I guess it’s time to get down to business. Kakashi is ready to train Naruto, but he doesn’t have much time; he knows Akatsuki is on the move. Kakashi explains the principles of Shape Manipulation (which Naruto already has down, thanks to his Rasengan) and Nature Manipulation. But before they can work on a new “ultimate ninjutsu” for Naruto combining the two manipulations, Naruto must learn his chakra nature orientation. Kakashi pulls out a few pieces of ’chakra paper’ which will respond to chakra. The cards will respond accordingly to the element of chakra that flows through it. It will represent it’s chakra through the following transfigurations: Fire – burn, Wind – Cut, Thunder – Crumple, Earth – Crumble, Water – Moisten. Naruto’s paper cuts, indicating that he is Wind element-natured. Yamato arrives and begins explaining how chakra elements can be combined to create new sub-elements (in his case, he mixes Earth (base-element) and Water (base-element) to form Wood (sub element). Naruto’s card slices in helf, indicating he is Wind natured. Once the explination is complete Kakashi shows Naruto that a Shadow Clone will immediately return any knowledge gained to the original body of the user, thus showing the foundation of this training. With this return of skill and knowledge to Naruto, he can complete his training in a fraction of the time (corresponding with the number of clones he has active) that it would take to do alone. For example: 2 day training ~ 2 Narutos (1 clone+Naruto). 1 Naruto = 2 days, 2 Narutos = 1 day/each. 1 day ~ 1 Naruto, 1 day ~ 1 Naruto + 1/2 Time. Get it? Good. Naruto uses his Mass Shadow Clone Jutsu and begins his training. He has already began to accomplish his first part: Slicing a leaf in half using chakra.

Thoughts: Well, things seem to be going pretty smooth for Naruto, right? Faster training, and he’s already beginning to cut things with his new Wind chakra. He should be strong in no time, right? Spoiler: WRONG. You’ll just have to find out what happens on the 56th episode of Naruto Shippuden on Thursday, April 24th.

I found a site that uploads the episodes weekly, and better yet, they embed them from Veoh! Hoo-ray! View all episodes here until further notice, but remember to stay with us for anime needs! http://narutochronicle.net/
