'Naruto Shippuden' Episode 475, 476 recap, spoilers, rumors: Who will reign victorious in Naruto vs Sasuke battle?

The next episode of "Naruto Shippuden" is not expected to be released this week. Instead, the hit anime series will take a two-week break before the airing of Episode 476. A few weeks of hiatus may be needed as the next episode will feature the most intense and action-packed sequences in the history of the show. The highly anticipated battle between the two greatest ninjas of their time, Naruto and Sasuke, is expected to take place in the upcoming episode.

The previous episodes of "Naruto Shippuden" were focused on the supposed final battle against the final villain of the series, Kaguya Otsutsuki. Kaguya, the progenitor of all chakra and the most powerful character in the series yet, was successfully defeated by the combined efforts of Naruto and Sasuke. She was sealed away by the power of the Sage of Six Paths, which was shared equally to Naruto and Sasuke. At first, it seemed that everything is about to go back to normal. However, for Sasuke, the real battle is just about to begin.

It is expected that Sasuke will challenge Naruto to a fight until the end. As reported by iTech Post, the bloody battle of Naruto and Sasuke will happen in Episode 476, titled "The Last Battle." This ultimate fight is expected to be jump-packed as the episode will run for almost an hour. The extended runtime of the upcoming episode is due to the number of chapters from the original "Naruto" manga that are going to be included in it. In total, there are still seven chapters from the manga that the anime series has yet to cover.

According to Movie News Guide, Sasuke is determined to change the whole world with his own hands. While Sasuke worked with Naruto in the previous episodes to take down the enemies of the shinobi world such as Uchija Madara and Kaguya, he has decided to take the new world for him. Naruto, who is also vying to be the next hokage of the Leaf Village, will not let Sasuke bend the world according to his will.

Sasuke's plans are sinister, especially that he aims to eradicate all the nine tailed beasts. Naruto, being the host or jinchuuriki to the nine-tailed beast, Kurama, will die in the process if Sasuke succeeded in killing them. As Naruto has a deep connection not only with Kurama but also with the rest of the tailed beasts, he will do his very best to protect them against Sasuke.

The battle will take place at the Valley of the End, the same location where Hashirama and Madara fought each other. The outcome of the fight will change the course of history, and only one of them can be declared the victor.
