@Daywlaker- well, Naruto only gained his advanced natures at the very end and probably just didn't know any techniques for them. While I do see your point, I feel advanced natures are too useful for someone as old as Onoki to have never bothered to learn even the most basic applications (again, simply deflecting Sasuke's sword with magnet release wouldn't be all that hard).

By 74 and 75, do you mean the anime or manga? Not to be "that guy" on the canonicity of events, but it does make a difference.
