The next episode of the anime adaptation, "Naruto Shippuden" is set to explore the events that were told in the "Book of Sunrise," although this remains to be seen as no official confirmation has been made other than the fact that the title of episode 484 is "Book of Sunrise—The Detonating Man," which is scheduled to be aired less than two weeks from now. Now, fans of the anime are coming up with all sorts of rumors and theories, both for episode 484 and 485.

A report from iTech Post speculates that the upcoming episode 484 will be about Sasuke's journey in finding atonement right after the events of the Fourth Shinobi World War. Based on the original manga, Sasuke will eventually figure out a way to get to the Land of Lightning right after being told of the villagers in the area in need of his assistance. Although he first declined to help, Sasuke apparently was convinced, but not without hesitation. It is rumored as well that this episode will showcase Sasuke's battle against a rogue ninja group headed by Karyu, whom Sasuke is expected to defeat in battle.

As for episode 485 with the title "Book of Sunrise — Coliseum," Sasuke will continue his journey right after eliminating Karyu, although he laments his failure to question the rogue ninja group leader about the whereabouts of the other members because a villager took revenge into his own hands by setting Karyu on fire. 

Anyway, the episode will proceed with Sasuke finding his way to the hideout of Orochimaru, where they meet and agree to see another leader in the person of Oyashiru of the Lightning Group. But there's a catch in order for Sasuke to get the information he needs, and it is in the form of fighting at the Coliseum against the best shinobis on the island.

Again, all those events mentioned above are intended to represent what the source material is all about, but there's no guarantee that the anime adaptation will strictly follow everything that's written in the manga.

Episode 484 of "Naruto Shippuden" is scheduled to air on Dec. 1.
