Oh, and another thought. Look back at
#331 for a moment.
V: "How will I achieve complete and total ultimate arcane power?"
Kobold oracle: "By saying the right four words to the right being at the right time for all the wrong reasons."
Four words.
Disintegrate
Gust
Of
Wind
I'm thinking that V won't get away with this, and as a result will be executed (either by Hinjo & The Paladins, or more informally by some of Kabuto's followers), which will lead V to undeath and greater arcane power.
Either that, or V will get access to Kabuto's resources, including some form of spellbook or other thing boosting V's powers.
Oh, and a totally unrelated thing. A kabuto is the helmet associated with traditional japanese samurai armor. So I'm guessing that makes Lord Kabuto Lord Helmet
