Gotta say... kinda beginning to see why people are dislike this manga. Aside from it being slow paced for a monthly manga, it's beginning to take itself away from the main theme of the original idea. Ninja using chakra to develop ninjutsu through hardwork and dedication. Now it's becoming too technologically dependant.

Ao has chakra, ninjutsu, sensory abilities, was considered good enough to be Mei's bodyguard, survived the Ten-Tail's Tailed Beast Bomb, and has the Byukugan on top of that. Yet he's using a gatling gun of some kind which will fire some sort of laser beam. I don't like that.

Fair enough, Team Konohamaru is still using ninja techniques, but last chapter clearly sets up all these other technologies that they're gonna be able to use later. I just wish it would return to it's roots and stick with it. I get that it's a lot more futuristic and modern as it shows advancement through Naruto's rein as Hokage, but to shift aside the original theme of the manga is silly in my opinion.
