This chapter proved to me that the Itachi and sasuke vs kabuto fight was pointless, if kishi wanted to have sasuke and Itachi speak one last time thats fine but the fight itself was pointless and a complete waste of time considering how long it dragged on. Itachi wanted to stop the edo tensei fine but at the time he stoped it no 1 I can think of who are relevant to the story was fighting them and it didn't seem like they were struggling either at the point where Itachi finally found kabuto. The only zombie who was a threat was et madara I think everyone is in agreement here so the whole point off stopping the edo tensei was to stop et madara ok fine, but that failed and he's still around which I'm happy about because he has been the only shining light in this war if you ask me but because of him staying it made the Itachi and sasuke vs kabuto fight pointless.
