It makes sense, but that would mean that they started to capture the tailed beasts at the beginning of part 1, since Gaara had to be first. It wouldn't be impossible,but i find it odd since between the introduction of Hidan and Kakuzu (when they captured the 2 tails) and Sasuke going after Bee, they had to capture 5 tailed beasts. Also, they went after Fuu (who had the 7 tails) before part 2 took place, at the second chunin exams. But i don't know how canon that was since i only saw it in the anime. Was that novel based?
