It kinda sounds like your implying that Team 8 wouldn't be a good story if Sasuke didn't defect...I agree that the renewed torture was a huge factor. The big question here is if Itachi will show up at all.
Even so, Sasukes treason is a HUGE plotline in canon. If it is ignored and he stays in Konoha the story has defenitely left any resemblance to the original plotline. Therefore I think that Viridian is going to find a good storyline that ends in Sasukes deflection anyway. It may take longer and not happen exactly the same way but it will happen.Spoiler: show

Yes, but that implies that Sasuke would defect in the first place. :PI don't think that is what Juas means. He is just saying that Team 8 will just take a different route to the "Sasuke Defection" arc.
I know, I know. I was just saying we shouldn't assume is all.Conversely, it could hold true for Team 8. In this continuity, since Naruto has no reason to hold back, he may go all out and simply take out Sasuke. None of this 'rescue Sasuke' crap. The kid should have been hunted as a missing nin and killed when he made his choice clear, last Uchiha or not.
Still, if Naruto DID kill Sasuke, that still presents a huge twist in the plotline and overall continuity of the universe with canon.
Long version of my response:Spencinator; I didn't mean that it would be a bad story that way - just very different. What I meant to say was that I guess that he will run to snakeface. I base the guess on the few hints given from sasukes reactions earlier in the story and my impression that Viridian will stick to the main plotline and show how different it could be when Naruto is in team 8. However it remains a guess and nothing else. A totally different plotline is possible and could be great. I just don't think we will see it.
Those two objectives don't really walk hand-in-hand. In fact, past a certain point they are mutually exclusive...Viridian will stick to the main plotline and show how different it could be when Naruto is in team 8.
