Chapter 470 splits its attention between an emotional standoff, as Sakura confesses to Naruto and he sees through her, and the opening exchanges of Killer B's duel with Kisame, whose blade drinks chakra faster than B can land a hit.
Summary
Sakura pushes back when Naruto accuses her of lying. He reasons that she would not travel all the way to the Land of Iron simply to declare her love, yet she keeps insisting the feeling is real and urges him to stop chasing Sasuke on her behalf. Naruto replies that recovering Sasuke stopped being about her some time ago. With nothing more to say, Sakura walks away and sets off on a search of her own, not realizing that Sai has quietly left an ink clone in her place.
Key Events
Far from that conversation, the fight between Killer B and Kisame gains intensity. B comes at his opponent repeatedly, but Kisame's living sword Samehada siphons off his chakra before any strike can actually land, blunting the assault time and again.
