Wow, I absolutely loved this little insert of what is going on with Itachi. We never hear what goes on in his life until Shippuden, so getting to see it now is really helpful to show the background of each character.

These imps that keep showing up... My gosh, they're everywhere! Where on earth are they coming from?!

Anyway, nice chapter! I can't wait to see some awesome action with the shinobi and the imps! Keep up the amazing work!
