Looks like Kishi weaved the hand signs for Talk no Jutsu!

NARUTO USED TALK NO JUTSU!! IT WAS SUPER EFFECTIVE!!!
LOOOOOOOOOOL. They're both in the TnJ dimension. It's officially over, Sasuke stands no chance.
Also fantastic flashback to the last chapter...

So they expect the Chansey v. Chansey double-slap fight to end in 3 turns?
I think this chapter was great in terms of imagery:
-Punch-into-fist-bump (that creates understanding)
-"I'm not going to leave you alone."
-Sasuke fight 1: "It's said that top class Shinobi understand each other when they fight."
-Sasuke fight 2: "It's not like before, because I already understand you-- and you understand me too."

Nah this is more like the infamous Metapod vs Metapod Harden battle if you ask me. So pointless Misty, er Sakura, will eventually berate both of them for their stupidity. And then Team Rocket will appear and be fought off once again.
What I expect to happen in the next chapters is to see the statues of Hashirama and Madara to be destroyed by Naruto and Sasuke. (And Talk-No-Jutsu) If you look closely at the statues in the newest chapter you can see them crumbling from the explosions. If you asked me, Kishi got lazy with the newest chapter and didn't show a lot of different tactical strategies. Kishi just drew explosions and the power-up of Perfect Susano and Kurama Mode.
What I can see going down is that Naruto and Sasuke will destroy the statues. The statues represent the old ninja system and the old way of living. People still follow Hashirama's village structure and political structure which is what Sasuke wants to destroy and create a revolution. Naruto wants to destroy the darkness which would be Madara which would end the Itachis, Sasukes, Tobi/Obito, and future Madaras.

This battle will be a whole lot harder to write tactical strategy for compared to the typical because there are no bystanders. No one to react, analyze, appreciate. There's only so much Kishi can do with just Naruto and Sasuke.
Meanwhile, as a show watcher, I was not at all prepared for how stupid Kaguya's backstory would be.
The biggest question I have is will Kishimoto every explain why Kaguya needed an entire White Zetsu army? Why did Kishi introduce this but never explained it? Did he or is editors decided to just scrap that idea or did Kishi simply said "fuck it I'm through with Naruto" and forgot about it. Because if so that's terrible writing from him and I'll be extremely disappointed if he doesn't explain this.
So, either Naruto is totally sand baggin those rasengan, or Kishi's totally forgot that Wind > Lightning
Woohoo, TnJ fails for now.
If you remember from a while back, white zetsu are the remains of the original people caught in the infinite tsuyukomi. Eons later when Madara was poking around with zetsus, the black one came to him while serving Kaguya and claimed to be a creation of Madara to gain his trust, and introduced the white ones as his creation too. So Madara was the one that used them as an army since there's a lot for starters, and having been changed, also possessed limited mokuton abilities. Essentially though, they're just remnants of the people caught in the original infinite tsuyokomi. It's not that she needed an army, it's that Madara made them into his army.
Eh, the anime will probably do a Kaguya filler. I hope so, shes a babe ;)
Also, she needs a backstory.
I knew as soon as the fight started all this crap would go out the window. I actually doubt Kishi can remember half the bs powers he gave these two during the last arc. I sure as hell can't(I can't even remember how all this started)
It's like when a kid tries to role play and gives himself all of these crazy powers. He ends up giving himself so many that he just forgets the less important ones he had.
The more this drags on, the harder I find that it will end properly. I almost feel like the fight is going to have some sort of abrupt end to it, like one of the two dying too quickly.

total bs-- this story is going so far off from the cannon powers of both characters and functions of ninjutsu it's just retarded.
When was the last time hand seals were used in Naruto????
I don't care if it ends happily ever after or not, or yes-- Naruto better BEAT Sasuke in the real sense of the word (none of this Kakashi-saves-his-ass bullshit, or Sasuke lets him live bullshit). If Naruto doesn't win, I will flip my shit. I'll be more pissed than I was at the ending of Hikaru-no-Go. I will be more annoyed than I get during every Rurouni Kenshin scene where Kenshin's being a fucking pansy drama-queen. Take notes writers: Your main character has to WIN at the end of a good Shonen, unless he is also the villain (ie. Death Note, but even then the series was best at the point L dies and went downhill from there).
Naruto better WIN or will be so pissed.
