Viewers have been waiting for two weeks for "Naruto Shippuden" episode 468, where Hagoromo's chosen successor will finally revealed.
Instead of revealing the answer last July 14, the show skipped the week and is now scheduled to return on July 21 to finally put an end to the cliffhanger that put fans at the edge of their seats.
In the previous episode of "Naruto Shippuden," Indra and Asura were tested on their decision-making and disposition when faced with a problem that involves the whole village they are tasked to watch.
Asura exhibited his determination by showing the villagers that they do not need the God Tree to thrive. With the help of Taizo, he started digging a well that will provide the town the water it needs.
Indra, on the other hand, lost hope in the village ever working together as a community. The challenge that took place in the previous "Naruto Shippuden" episode undoubtedly showed the big difference between the two.
In "Naruto Shippuden" episode 468, Hagoromo will finally name the rightful heir to the Ninshu and as "Naruto" manga fans already know, this does not end well for everyone.
[Spoiler Alert! Details about the "Naruto Shippuden" episode 468 below. Proceed only if you wish to know what will happen in the installment]
In the end, despite Indra showing mastery in the art early on, Asura's willpower ultimately wins the heart of his father, thus pushing Hagoromo to choose his younger son as the new leader of the Ninshu.
However, Indra, feeling like he was robbed of something he believes he was always destined to have, does not take this well and challenges his brother to a duel that will last for generations.
Indra's revulsion toward his brother is further intensified by Kaguya's control over him. She has been manipulating him with the Black Zetsu for a while now, but it looks like the effect will never be as bloody in "Naruto Shippuden" episode 468.
