As our team of heroes continue to search for Orochimaru and Saske, Orochimaru presses on with his ultimate goal of immortality. Although nothing is yet clear about Guren's roll in Orochimaru's plan, she is a definate factor in the success of the mission. Orochimaru believes that "combining chakra" (energy) with a young boy named Yamato that apparently possess great power. This episode focuses on the relationship between Yamato and Guren. Guren shows that she does have a heart despite her being on the side of pure evil. She cares for Yamato while he gets sick traveling to their unknown destination. At this point, I know that Guren's crystal jutsu and Yamato's secret jutsu are going to combine and probably make a new weapon that Orochimaru can use to his benefit in his reincarnation. During this bonding experience between Guren and Yamato, Naruto is trying to master a new, powerful jutsu in combination with the toads help. He thought he was going to use a water style jutsu from the frog in combination with his wind style jutsu to create a similar jutso to Jaraiya's water/wind jutsu, but the frog cant' do water jutsu! But we all know Naruto will pull it together and use this jutsu to defeat Orochimaru's Guren/Yamato weapon.
