Team Falcon (aka Team Eagle/Hawk/Taka/Hebi)

This week on Naruto manga chapter 413, Team Falcon (some translation may use "Team Hawk", or "Team Eagle", or its original Japanese word "Taka") beaten up pretty badly by the Eight Tails jinchuuriki. The Eight Tails jinchuuriki easily dodged the attacks by Suigetsu and even Juugo. Even Sasuke was beaten up hard. And finally the Eight Tails jinchuuriki transformed completely into the Eight Tails beast!

So do you think this is the end for Team Falcon?

In this state, I don’t think Sasuke could win against the Eight Tails jinchuuriki, since the Eight Tails jinchuuriki could easily release his genjutsu. How can Sasuke use other eye techniques that Itachi has planted on him, he looked like he’s gonna die if Karin wasn’t there in the first place! And the other two, Suigetsu and Juugo, are obviously weaker than Sasuke himself (at least we assumed that).

It could also be a question why the Eight Tails jinchuuriki almost straight away transformed into the beast, instead of using more jutsu’s to finish Team Falcon off.

My guess is the Eight Tails jinchuuriki probably is very confident in using his beast (bijuu) in combat. He said it himself that he can control his bijuu as much as he likes. Probably the reason he’s not using special jutsu’s to finish Team Falcon off is because he’s the taijutsu type? OK, we’ll see how he battles in his transformation form next chapter next week! Can’t wait for that!!
