Naruto Vol. 15 — Manga Raw / Buy Official

Before Sasuke's eyes, Gaara sheds his human form and transforms into the terrifying shape of the sealed tailed beast Shukaku. Sasuke charges bravely with the Chidori, but the curse mark Orochimaru branded on him drains his strength and he collapses. Naruto and Sakura finally catch up and pull Sasuke from danger, yet Gaara's swelling madness only grows. A monster born into loneliness, unloved, who found his reason to exist in slaughter — against Naruto, who carries the same loneliness but has found comrades. Two opposites collide head-on in one of the series' finest showdowns in this fifteenth volume.
