Naruto Shippuuden Episode 205 - Declaration of War (pictures and stmmary)

Uchiha Madara finally shows up in the 5 Kages Summit. Danzo, the Hidden Leaf's current acting Hokage has already left the summit and escaped. Sasuke was about to be defeated by the Tsuchikage however Madara had saved him. Unable to persuade the 5 Kages to give up the remaining Jinchuurikis (Naruto and Killer Bee), Madara declares war-- 4th Ninja World War!

Madara explains his motive and what he intend to do with the nine Bijuus. He wanted to revive the Ten Tails and make himself its Jinchuuriki to activate a certain powerful Genjutsu. Using the Ten Tails power combined with his ocular power, he'll make Project Tsuki No Me work. It is done by projecting his own eyes to the moon and cast an infinite tsukuyomi to everyone.

The nine tailed beasts were originally created after the Sage of Six Paths divided the Ten Tails into nine. The Sage of Six Paths has once protected the world by sealing the Ten Tails to his own body. He indeed created the Sealing Jutsu. However, the Sage of Six Paths knew that the Ten Tails will be released into the world if he dies. To prevent the Ten Tails from destroying the world, he divided the Ten Tails chakra into nine and scattered it around the world. Madara mentioned that the beast's body was sealed using the power of Chibaku Tensei, it created what we call the moon. Ninja villages later on used the Sealing Jutsu to capture Bijuus and used as a weapon.

After Madara's appearance to the summit, the Five Kages join forces while Gaara is given the task to talk to Hatake Kakashi since Danzo has betrayed the other four Kages.

Here are the pictures of the Nine Bijuus and Nine Jinchuurikis (including their names):

Which Ninjas Did Kabuto Revive?

Kabuto revived a number of great ninjas to help Akatsuki win the 4th World Ninja War. A few great and skilled ninjas revived are the following:

Kabuto's evil Impure World Resurrection technique revives the former members of Akatsuki including Itachi, previous kages, former Jinchuurikis and other great ninjas like Zabuza and Haku, Asuma, Chiyo of the Sand and even Kimimaru (bloodline limit that uses bones). They will be totally controlled by Kabuto when he finally decides to fully utilize the power of the forbidden technique. However, its power is quite limited since it cannot summon those ninjas who were sealed like Yondaime and the Third Hokage.

Impure World Resurrection: A Little History and Hnw It Works



It was actually created by the Second Hokage and later studies and perfected by Orochimaru. It needs an alive human being as a sacrifice to revive the dead one. Kabuto takes blood from the dead, does the ritual and the sacrifice will then be transformed into the dead one's appearance. The soul of the dead one will also be transferred to the sacrifice.

On the other hand, Naruto shows off his physical appearance, almost controlling and using the 9 tailed beasts powers. This reminds us of the "Sage of Six Paths" however Naruto does not have the Rinnegan. Naruto in Sage of the  6 Paths mode picture below:

Gaara's Speech

Gaara's Speech

Commander General of the 5 Great Nations Joint Army

Three Times Now.

We've fought world wars for

our own nations,

our own villages.

We've hurt one another.

We've hated one another.

That hatred bred

a lust of power,

and that lust for power created

ME.

I was a Jinchuuriki,

the EMBODIMENT OF HATRED AND POWER.

And I hated this world,

and all the people in it.

I wanted to destroy it

with my own hands.

The exact same thing

Akatsuki is trying to do

today.

But one man,

one ninja from the Hidden Leaf

stopped me.

I was his enemy,

yet he wept for me!

He saved me!

My enemy,

my fellow jinchuuriki.

He suffered

the same pain as me,

yet bore no ill will!

There are no enemies here

because we've all suffered

at Akatsuki's hand!

So there is

no sand,

no stone,

no leaf,

no mist, and

no cloud!

There are only "Shinobi!"

And if you still 

hold a grudge

against the sand,

then when this

war is over,

come and take

me head instead!

Our enemies are after

the friend who 

saved my life!

I want to

protect him,

and I want to

protect our world!

But I'm too young

to protect it all

on my own!

All of you,

lend me your aid!

Everyone who's with me,

let's go!

This is why we need to burn dead bodies into ashes...



Kabuto has just summoned six dead bodies right in front of Madara because of his interest to join Akatsuki once again. Six dead bodies are Nagato, Kakuzu, Deidara, Sasori, Itachi and another body which was not shown yet.



The unknown body must be so important and powerful that Madara agreed to let him join Akatsuki. Kabuto's motivation is to have the chance to see young Uchiha---Sasuke.

In the meantime, Anko's search team has just tracked Kabuto and has lead them close to Madara's base. What is Kabuto's real intention? Why did he lead Anko's team to Madara's base? Why did he joined forces with Madara?

On the otherhand, Naruto has agreed to take in the 'Kyuubi's Will'. Unafraid, Naruto trusts that he can control the 'Kyuubi's Chakra' as well as the 'Kyuubi's Will'.
