Shippuden episode 320 follows Omoi as command mistakes his rush toward the Seventh Front for desertion. Determined to save a supply unit of children, he cuts through the White Zetsu Army with help from Naruto's clone and the Thundercloud Unit.
Word reaches Headquarters that Omoi has left his position, and Kakashi confirms it. The Fourth Raikage begins to suspect desertion, but Karui speaks up for him and puts the notion to rest. Sai adds that Omoi may be heading for the Seventh Front, where the Water Attack Raid Unit had been relying on the Thundercloud Unit that never arrived, suggesting Omoi is worried about a supply group made up of children. Omoi himself makes contact, pledging to bring the children out within the hour.
Command sends one of Naruto's shadow clones to back him against two thousand White Zetsu clones. Arriving at the Seventh Front, Omoi finds only Mist corpses and swarms of the enemy, and the clone appears just in time, though a careless swing from Omoi strikes and dispels it. Left on his own, he struggles to find his fighting spirit while pressing through defenders who spew a poison smokescreen from the red soil. Nearby, the Thundercloud Unit shelters inside a lakeside statue under Yukai's lead. Omoi wades in, clearing out clones with a lightning bolt beneath the water, and the sheltered fighters emerge to battle at his side until the enemy is wiped out.

Naruto vs Luffy with the twist nobody asked for: Luffy tickled Hinata on date night, and she kind of liked it. We break down the whole fight and commit to a winner....

Naruto built the transformation jutsu himself, and the Hidden Leaf has been quietly not talking about it ever since. The story behind our 90s R&B record about the Naruko question everybody dodges....
