Truly one of the mangas of all time. What a shame though, I remember feeling hyped everytime a chapter released until they decided to go all flashback no jutsu and kept dragging on and on and on just for the chapter to end in another flashback cliffhanger.
All I'm saying is, this whole situation wouldn't have happened if the cuck wimp stepped in. But as the cuck wimp as he is, he decided to just jerk one out.
