Here, following the events of last episode, Naruto and B keep trying to go the battlefield despite the Raikage's opposition. A doesn't care about his brother's reasons, so the two jinchurikis try to get pass by force. But on each try, they are thwarted. When A demands Tsunade's help, she stares thinking, remembering when Naruto defended her from Kabuto, and how are chose to trust him. So now, she makes a decision and goes to stand by Naruto's side. She reproaches the Raikage that killing Naruto won't solve anything as other jinchuriki won't be able to control the Kyuubi. Naruto is glad to see the Hokage he knows well. Aware that his brother is being unreasonable, B decides to try a double Lariat with him. A accepts, but when they clash, he loses and crushes againt a rock. B tells him that since he became Raikage, he has stopped trusting on his strength. A flashback shows the day of the funeral of the third Raikage, A's father. B went to talk, to comfort him, but A, in tears, swore that he would protect the village and his brother as the 4th Raikage. That day, he ordered B to remain inside the village permanently and not to leave without him knowing. He sent him to practice the Bijuu dama, in order to attack possible invaders from a distance. When B asked about the Lariat (as he wanted to keep trying tp equal his brother's strength), A told him to forget about it. Now, B tells him that when he started to overprotect him, he stopped trusting on him. Currently, B has a stronger Lariat than the Raikage, but he didn't notice. For B, the words his brother said in the Falls of Truth were unforgettable. A finally remembers, about how he is a special person to him, that they are especially strong together. Still, he can't understand why is enough for B. The jinchuriki explains that the burden takes away a lot from him, placing him in the dark, and that the true source of power is not the Bijuu, but what was before the Bijuu came to his life. A then remembers what his cousin told him, while B tell what makes him stronger, what fills the void, and the shinning light he sees from the dark. He hasn't became a jinchuriki only to protect his village and his nation, he did it also for his brother. He talks about him like a light, a sun for his life. And adds that Naruto is like him, yet he knows that he has two suns. A asks Naruto who they are, and the answer is, Minato and Kushina. A knows they died when Naruto was a baby, and Tsunade realizes something happened when Naruto was training to control the Kyuubi's chakra. Naruto then explains that his father sealed Kushina's chakra inside him so she'd help him to control the Kyuubi. And the she told him everything about the masked man's role in the Kyuubi incident, and that Minato knew the dark future awaiting. But his father also chose to entrust him to stop the masked man, by sealing the Kyuubi inside him. The Raikage and Tsunade listen carefully, both aware that is the truth (A knew that the Uzumaki's clan had great sealing jutsu, so believes the story), and are surprised to learn that "Madara" was behind that incident. A then questions how Minato died and left everything on Naruto's hands. So Naruto adamantly says that though his parents are dead, they left him something important, so he feels he can stop the war and be the savior. Tsunade defends himn one more time, same as B. The Raikage then charges his full power and sends B away. Naruto goes aside to protect Tsunade, as the Raikage follows him. He tries to crush him, but at the last second, Naruto evades it, just like his father did many years ago. He promises to take care of his responsibilities, just like his father taught him, he won't fail. A tells that he wanted to test him on his own way, Naruto turns out to be the second person to dodge his fastest attack. The Raikage believes him, that Minato is alive in him, and accepts the savior. Naruto then leaves, with his blessing, while Tsunade looks at him, happy. B is also glad that his brother could finally understand them. This part of the episode was very well written. Naruto finally got out of his chest all what his mother told him. The moment seeing Minato and Kushina's figures next to Naruto, as his two suns, was very nice. Remembering their sacrifice is almost as touching as those moments in episode 249. They never should be forgotten. Anyway, I feel like Naruto couldn't explain with better words what his parents left him. Such sacrifice, love and trust give him the strength to do what he must do to save the world. He can't fail, with his parents guiding him, being the "two suns" who illuminate his way against the darkness. That's who they are. Then, about Killer B's sun, he explained everything perfectly. His brother's words, in the time when he was more reasonable, meant everything to him. B realized there that his brother would always be for him no matter what. That was all he needed to follow. Unconditional love from family, this case, his brother. Then, when A's father died, he decided to protect B at any cost (that's why his words on last episode of killing him if needed was out of character). Overprotection, but mistrust. B wanted his old brother back. Then, Tsunade's decision was the right one obviously. She stood up for Naruto. She trusts him, as she trusted Minato and Kushina. Makes me wish there could be a flashback with the three. If Jiraiya was close to Naruto's parents, Tsunade too, given what she said on episode 126 (Jiraiya's farewell).
On the other hand, Shikaku and Mabui analyze information to stop the White Zetsu infiltrations at the different Alliance camps. At the end, Shikaku reaches a conclusion: only Naruto in the Nine Tails Mode can sense the evil clones on the battlefield, and with his Kage Bunshin (his own clones) jutsu can detect them faster along all the front line. Mabui doesn't think the Raikage would allow Naruto into war until Katsuyu informs them about the talk between A, Tsunade, Naruto and B. In the meantime, Obito has gathered the six dead jinchurikis, and resurrected them with Edo Tensei. Plus, he added a Rinnegan and a Sharingan to each one of them: Yugito, Yagura, Roshi, Han, Utakata, and Fuu. He calls them the new six paths of pain. About this, Shikaku's conclusion is pretty simple, because Zetsu's clones are perfect. There's no way to detect him unless you test them one by one, or read his mind. Fortunately, Naruto is written to have such ability. And to finish, Obito's idea is bumming in some way. To add Rinnegan and Sharingan to each reanimated jinchuriki, that's crazy. Why raise so much the level of powers? From where it came all those eyes? He can create them seeminly. It was the worst part of the episode, the Gedo Mazo statue was more coherent.
