Ino mentions that Naruto is doing this subconsciously, his strong will and heart is helping Shikamaru, as well as making his Chakra move. She knows because he’s clearly feeling it with her Mind-Body transmission technique. Shikamaru begins to think of Naruto mentioning that he’s always been trying to do the impossible. Just how far is he willing to got for them, they haven’t done much up until now and he still prioritizes their health.

He now just wants to help him and doesn’t want him to go through it again.

Shikamaru remembers telling Shikaku that Naruto will become a vital Shinobi for the entire village, Shikamaru feels that whatever Naruto chooses he’ll always follow him. He then mentions that unlike Hashirama, Naruto didn’t have a brother for him to open up and talk to, that’s why when Naruto becomes Hokage, he’s got to be his right hand man! He mentions that he’ll see his father later as well as mentioning that there could be no better adviser for Naruto than him. They notice a difference in Shikamaru’s health.

Hashirama mentions that while he’s distracted they should cut the tree. The Earth is their ally and that they should sort something out.

Raikage remembers his moment with Naruto when he lowered his head, mentioning that they shouldn’t lower their head so easily, however Raikage understands that by doing so he can call that action and power. He calls his Shinobi’s to action to which he gets all of them hyped up. Mei Terumi gets into action calling her sector out.

His dreams will live on, Hashirama shouts to everyone to chase their dreams down. Naruto 649 ends here.

What a touching and crazy chapter. It’s been a while since a Naruto chapter touched my emotions however this chapter has definitely been one to get me somewhat emotional. Can’t wait for next week’s Naruto 650 to which Naruto and Sasuke will somehow get Obito in an attack or something, can’t wait!
