Previously, episode 484 told the story of the detonating men, which was caused by the red-eyed shinobi. Sasuke, upon his return to Konoha, encountered some of these exploding men and later he realized that the incident could only be caused by Kekkei Genkai – performed by those who possess immense visual prowess.

"Naruto Shippuden" episode 485 is titled "Sasuke's Story: Sunrise, Part 2: Coliseum," which is said to be based on the manga titled "Book of Sunrise: Coliseum." Episode 485 tells the story of Sasuke's investigation about the exploding men. Surprisingly, Sasuke will meet Yamato along the way, which will lead Sasuke back to Orochimaru to gather information. However, rumor has it that before Sasuke could get to Orochimaru, he will meet Oyashiru — head of the Lightning group. Sasuke is challenged by Oyashiru in a battle at the Coliseum. Sasuke could simply ignore the challenge, but Oyashiru offers him a deal that he cannot refuse and that is the whereabouts of Orochimaru. Orochimaru is crucial for Sasuke in his investigation, but he is also elusive. Therefore, finding his whereabouts must be one of the top priorities on Sasuke's list.

It is believed that the next episode will highlight Sasuke's great concern for Konoha by risking his life in a skirmish among other shinobi to solve the exploding men phenomenon and save Konoha from the threat.

By the looks of it, episode 485 is full of action and exciting encounters. Fans could expect exhilarating battles and interesting collaborations as the story continues to unfold. "Naruto Shippuden" episode 485 is expected to air on Dec. 8.
