うろたえる愛染　今度は一護がなんで自分から距離を取った？と聞き返す。
Aizen gets flustered. This time Ichigo asks why he's putting distance between them.

思い上がるなよ人間が！と激昂する愛染
"'Don't think so highly of yourself, human!" rages, Aizen.

第三の目みたいなのが割れ進化する愛染。
The 3rd eye-like thing on Aizen evolves.

顔は愛染の面影はなく、刀は右手と融合、孔は縦に三つ開いている。一番上の孔の中心に萌玉
The face isn't like Aizen's. His sword is fused with his right hand. Three holes open vertically, the top one has the hougyoku in the center.

羽だった部分がすこし分厚くなりそれぞれの羽上部先端には虚の面のようなものが。
The wings portion thickens slightly, and the top edges of the wings have these things that look like hollow masks.

そうか、やはり私が人間に遅れを取るのが許せないかと萌玉に問う愛染。
"So, you won't permit me to lose to a human?" Aizen asks the hougyoku.

虚の面の口からセロのようなものを放つ。物凄い大爆発を起こす。
The mouths on the hollow masks fire what appear to be ceros. They cause a massive explosion.

その爆炎の中から現われる一護、左手で防いでいたが、もう使い物にはなるまいと愛染。
Ichigo emerges from the explosion, protecting himself with his left hand. Aizen says Ichigo has nothing else to use.

一護に突進し、一護の首をつかむ。全ての虚の面が口を開き一護にセロ？を放つべく構える。
He charges Ichigo and grabs his neck. All the hollow masks open their mouths to prepare to fire at Ichigo.

一護を捕らえながら、今の君には取り込み理解する価値もない、君を殺す事で
As he holds onto Ichigo he says, "It's not worth capturing you to understand you as you are now. Kurosaki Ichigo, by killing you

死神と虚という低劣な存在から決別する終わりだ黒崎一護！と叫ぶ愛染。
the separation of inferior beings called shinigami and hollow is finished!"

終わりだと、こんなもんかよ？と愛染を睨む一護。掴む手は弾かれる。
"Who cares if it's finished?" Ichigo glares at Aizen and repels the hand grabbing him.

あんたの理屈はうんざりだ、見せてやるよ最後の月牙天衝だという一護で次号
Your theories are boring. I'll show you the final Getsuga Tenshou!" Until next chapter.

ついに発動！最後の月牙天衝で永き戦いに終止符が・・・！！
It's finally invoked! The final Getsuga Tenshou puts an end to the long battle...!!

Madara listens to Konan's reasons for her betrayal (of Akatsuki). He says he didn't expect that Naruto was worth so much.

Konan says hostilely, "Because he is the light, and holds the flower of hope for everyone."

Madara: "The fact that you are still wearing those clothes (Akatsuki uniform) despite fighting me tells me that you still cling to Akatsuki."

Konan: "Akatsuki was created by Yahiko, the red clouds on their uniform symbolise the rain of blood that fell during war in Amegakure, and just because you came aboard Akatsuki, it doesn't make it yours - it's our symbol of justice"

Konan continues: "The Rinnegan was bestowed upon Nagato of Amegakure, it is not yours, but his eyes are this country's, and this village's treasure"

Madara lets Konan's paper shuriken pass through his body, "This will be the end, so I'll tell you"

"The one who induced Yahiko to set up the Akatsuki was me. The one who gave Nagato the Rinnegan was also me. That's why it's only right to ask for them to be returned to me"

The two begin their battle as Konan says that if Madara were to get his hands on it, all sorts of things would happen.

Konan doesn't let his materialised body escape by attacking with a large number of paper attacks.

Madara notices that she has something planned and decides to take her on, trying to suck Konan up when he has a chance.

However Konan has mixed some exploding tags among the paper, intending to kill the both of them.

*flashback starts*

When Akatsuki was founded? Konan reports to Yahiko that their members have been defeated.
Yahiko and Nagato are both injured and bandaged. There are numerous other minor members present apart from Yahiko, Nagato and Konan.

Nagato says that he will go out in the afternoon, but Yahiko says "I'll go, so rest, don't strain yourself"

He continues, "Nagato is pivotal to Akatsuki and is the man who will change the world. So just give all your worries to Nagato"

Konan: "The same goes for you, everyone loves you and thus follows you, that is most important, just like with Nagato"

A while later, Yahiko responds "He is the man who will become the bridge to peace. My role is to become a pillar of support to that bridge"

Yahiko murmurs, "This country is still crying, and I now want to save this country which I once hated for always crying, that's how I feel deep down. I just can't leave this country alone because it's a crybaby just like I was," and he leaves.

Konan, Nagato and the other members see him off, Nagato says, "The one who will be the bridge to peace is him, his very purpose will form the bridge"

"We'll believe in Yahiko, let's go everyone!" he commands, before following after Yahiko.

The flashback ends with Konan's monologue of determination "I will become the pillar of support to the two bridges formed by Yahiko and Nagato"

The exploded paper and cloth are scattered about. We see a little of Madara's face as his mask has broken. He has also lost his right arm.

He says to Konan who is right before him, seemingly not with as many injuries, "I underestimated you, after all you were also once a member of Akatsuki."

"You intended to explode the both of us, but thanks to the fact that I sucked in a little of the explosion, both of us are safe"

In response to Madara's question if she's exhausted her secret plans, Konan says that she has a question for Madara. "Do you know why you were betrayed by us?"

Madara: Who knows?

Konan uses secret arts as she yells "You are darkness, a flower can only wilt in a world without light!"

The lake becomes paper, and spreads, just like the Red Sea did for Moses, while she tries to drop Madara into it... next chapter!

A secret art to protect Nagato... Seal him into a sea of paper!!

That has been my prediction for the longest time. Especially since he only has 1 sharingan (opposite of kakashi's) and the same Hair. Then when Kabuto showed him a coffin, I was a little more content with that. My only question is, what is his Motive?

Could have something to do with all his friends abandoning him under a pile of rocks...

I got a feeling Madara could be using Obito's body... There's so many techniques in the naruto world that could easily make that possible.

whats up with ichigos arm on page 19 2nd from last pane, looks more like the final form hollow arm but wasnt getsuga tenshou a wave of spiritual energy? which alas ichigo does not have any. speculations. prolly best guess is he turns into the final hollow form i mean makes most sense as aizen seems to think he cant anymore but might not be the only course of action just wondering what you think will happen

you lost me there blackdragon, what do you mean he gave away the rinnegan?

In the chapter "Madara / Tobi" goes on to state "I gave Nagato the Rinnegan."

Of course, I don't believe it's in the literal sense, he probably went on about to cause the activation of Nagato's Rinnegan rather than literally giving it to him (the war in the rain)

But who knows... I wouldn't be all too surprised if it actually turned out that way (literal sense) ...lol

why are we writing in spoiler tags?

because fags don't read manga and we'll spoil them
