Chapter 475 steers the Five Kage Summit toward its confrontations, with Gaara backing Kakashi for Hokage and Danzō squaring off against Tobi. The masked man clears the path for Sasuke while Danzō bares a startling weapon.
Summary
As he parts from the Konoha shinobi, Gaara tells Kakashi that the assembled Kage will now regard him as the acting Hokage in light of Danzō's conduct. He renews his advice that Naruto let go of Sasuke, yet also urges Naruto to decide for himself what path is right. Meanwhile Danzō readies himself to face Tobi. His guards Fū Yamanaka and Torune Aburame engage the masked enemy but cannot touch him; their strikes, timed for the instants he turns solid, slip straight through before both are warped away.
Key Events
With the bodyguards gone, Tobi delivers Sasuke and Karin to Danzō and invites Sasuke to take his life. Danzō accepts the challenge, and in doing so reveals an arm studded with implanted Sharingan, setting the stage for the duel to come.
