328 Spoilers:
..
Asuma dies, after smoking his last cigarette.
Kurenai is shown on the last page, looking out the window.
Now for something else I thought was worth mentioning..
Asuma: Ino.. you’re really spirited.. but you’re really responsible.. Chouji and Shikamaru.. are both pretty inept.. so watch over them..
Ino: ..Yeah..
Asuma: And.. don’t you lose to Sakura.. in ninjutsu or in love..
Ino: Yeah!..
Ugh. You guys remember that talk Shikamaru and Asuma had earlier about pawns and the 'king'? Asuma tells Shikamaru who the 'king' is, but he whispers it, so we're still left in the dark. Shikamaru's quite surprised, though.
And in a flashback, Asuma is buying flowers for 'someone.'
Ino: Who are those for?
Asuma: Oh, nobody in particular…
Ino: Say hi to Kurenai-sensei for me!
Asuma: Wh…why!?
Also in this chapter.. Shikamaru smokes.

Team 10 lurve! Shikamaru smoking a cigerette in that one scene was heartwrenching.
sad
Asuma: And ...don't you lose to Sakura...in ninjitsu or love
Interesting he would say that. Especially since the only person Ino seems to be interested in at the moment is Sai...
I'm just glad I haven't seen any "omg, Ino loves Sasuke see!" Sakura herself, after all, promised the same thing to Ino.

I sure hope that Sakura doesn't lose to Ino... I mean, Ino can use medical ninjutsu? Seeing that made me a bit pissy, because Sakura's "specialness" sort of wavered for me. sad Hopefully it's just a simple technique that's required for emergencies.
If not, Kishimoto's going to have a visitor... ninja
I'm a bit disappointed that Asuma died so quickly, especially with all that anticipation from knowing it was going to happen. :sigh: But... he died. And I'm sad. Because he was cool. And yeah...
On a lighter note, seeing Shikamaru light that cig was a bit hawt.

finally i read the chapter and im still sad of what happened to asuma. i agree with you C r a y o l a of how like ino can use like medical ninjutsu. i was kinda like 'but thats sakuras special...' i bet is like for emergencies that they could do and like you dont have to be a ned to do it. anyway asuma should have been in the manga longer he was a cool character...well i bet kishimoto wanted it to happen for a reason maybe....still in the end it was cool that shikamaru was smoking. hes picking up the habit *tsk tsk* shikamaru i thought you knew better xd

Well, it could all be in Tsuande's intention. I remember her talking about the significance of having a medic nin on every team. Typical that Kishimoto would target the girls, but eh- how else would he develop them, right? sweatdrop Overall, however, I don't think Ino is a serious medic nin. She probably knows the basics, but focuses more on her own mind jutsu. Sakura on the other hand has been preluded to be one of the more greater medic nins.

My take on 328:
Yeah, Asuma died. I kinda knew it, but I didn't want to believe it till the very end. Poor Team 10! And poor Kure-chan when she finds out! *cries with them*
Theory! Er... x4!
1) That "king" might be Naruto. Since Asuma can relate to Naruto, being the only one besides him to be a Wind type. And Asuma knows about Naruto's desire to become Hokage, I suppose he wants for Naruto to see his dream through, too.
2) Ino being a medic nin is kinda like Boss-chan said - it's what Tsunade prescribed for all teams to have, having seen the problems of their lack herself. It takes Sakura's "special-ness", sure, but it's a terrific strategy. But it's been foreshadowed by Kakashi in the chapter where they first train after 2.5 years that Sakura might grow to be even greater than Tsunade - meaning, greater than all the kunoichi in the village, including Ino. Though I'm particularly fond of Ino a bit, I just don't want to see her pwning Sakura, who I like more.
3) Kure-chan is preggerz. I'm really quite keen on that. Why else would she be home sitting pretty when most nins are on special alert?
4) The Leader will be seen a few more times in the succeeding chappies, I think.
I don't really like making theories much, except when a chapter provokes so much thought. Like this one.
....silence for Asuma...

Kairi.nin Hm. You know what, since Asuma's been showing up a lot lately, I have a feeling he'll be getting killed soon. Maybe in a battle with the Akatsuki or something. OMFG! Kairi-san told teh futures! All hail the phsycic administrator! *falls flat on face in worship*

329:
DAMN.
Boring.. again.. no.. even the Akatsuki didn't excite me.
I really hope what Kakashi/Naruto found out has something to do with getting the training over with faster..
The Akatsuki's main goal is to conquer the world. Big surprise there. I expected that, but now that it's out in the open.. they don't impress me that much anymore.
Ugh. Sakuraaaaaa. Where are yoooouu?
And there will be NO Naruto manga next week. Wonderful.
