**[00:08] ---**
Orochimaru, are you planning on
leaving the village?
**[00:11] ---**
Ah, Tsunade...
**[00:13] ---**
Are you sad that
your childhood friend will be gone?
**[00:18] ---**
My aim is immortality.
**[00:21] ---**
No one can stop me!
**[00:31] ---**
Orochimaru!
**[00:31] ---**
OIL
**[00:33] ---**
As your friend, I cannot allow you to leave!
**[00:36] ---**
Let's do this, Tsunade!
**[00:37] ---**
Got it, Jiraiya!
**[00:39] ---**
Summoning Jutsu!
**[00:39] ---**
Summoning Jutsu!
**[00:45] ---**
Gamabunta!
**[00:47] ---**
Manda!
**[00:50] ---**
Katsuyu!
**[00:52] ---**
*Why am I doing this?*
***SIGN*** 1\fad(600,500)\pos(494,216)}Kawaki's Cover Blown?!*
**[02:32] ---**
You're playing the part of the slug?!
**[02:34] ---**
That's brilliant!
**[02:38] ---**
You jerk...
**[02:50] ---**
I'm really looking forward to
putting on a play
**[02:52] ---**
for the school festival!
**[02:54] ---**
Let's do our best to make this story about
**[02:56] ---**
the Legendary Sannin a success!
**[02:57] ---**
Good grief.
**[02:59] ---**
There's no stopping her now
once she's like this.
**[03:02] ---**
Why must I be Orochimaru?!
**[03:05] ---**
I'm best suited to play
the role of Lord Fourth, Minato!
**[03:10] ---**
Why did Himawari get the part?!
**[03:12] ---**
Everyone probably decided on it
**[03:14] ---**
because she's Lord Fourth's granddaughter.
**[03:17] ---**
The way you portrayed
Orochimaru earlier was amazing!
**[03:20] ---**
It's a role only you can play, Osuka!
**[03:22] ---**
I-Is that supposed to be a compliment?
**[03:29] ---**
Okay, everyone, in order to
enhance the performance,
**[03:33] ---**
I want each of you to bring
a handmade headband tomorrow.
**[03:36] ---**
How authentic!
**[03:38] ---**
A headband, huh?
**[03:39] ---**
Good idea! Got it!
**[03:46] ---**
From tomorrow, we're going to be
taking rehearsals more seriously!
**[03:51] ---**
Got it?
**[03:52] ---**
Yeah, yeah...
**[03:54] ---**
Good!
**[03:55] ---**
Then, see you tomorrow!
**[03:56] ---**
All right.
**[04:00] ---**
I'll take over guard duties from here.
**[04:03] ---**
All right.
**[04:05] ---**
*The way things are going,*
**[04:07] ---**
*it looks like we'll get through
this without Kae finding out.*
***SIGN*** NINJA
**[04:17] ---**
Extra! Extra!
**[04:19] ---**
Read all about it!
***SIGN*** EXPOSÉ NEWSPAPER
**[04:21] ---**
Read this!
**[04:23] ---**
Here!
**[04:24] ---**
Here you go everyone!
**[04:28] ---**
"Eiki secretly reads Make-Out Paradise"
**[04:33] ---**
"to learn more about
playing the role of Jiraiya."
**[04:37] ---**
What the hell is this?
**[04:38] ---**
Exposé Newspaper?
**[04:41] ---**
Once Sosha finds something out,
it's all over.
**[04:44] ---**
Everyone in the Academy will know.
**[04:45] ---**
It's a terrifying newspaper,
and everyone's scared of it.
***SIGN*** OIL
**[04:57] ---**
Don't look! Don't look! Don't look!
**[05:03] ---**
Terrifying, for sure...
**[05:07] ---**
Okay, okay! Let's begin rehearsal.
**[05:14] ---**
I forgot my headband!
**[05:18] ---**
Here.
**[05:19] ---**
Huh? A real one?!
**[05:21] ---**
Well, I'm just playing a slug.
You can use it.
**[05:24] ---**
That's not good!
**[05:25] ---**
Huh?
**[05:27] ---**
If anyone finds out you have a real one,
**[05:29] ---**
everyone's gonna think you're a genin!
**[05:32] ---**
Especially if Sosha sees it.
**[05:35] ---**
Oh, you're right!
**[05:44] ---**
Make sure no one finds out
about your mission.
**[05:47] ---**
I know that!
**[05:57] ---**
What did you want to talk about?
**[05:59] ---**
I personally know how terrifying you can be,
**[06:02] ---**
so I'm going to share a secret with you.
**[06:05] ---**
Kawaki has a real headband.
**[06:09] ---**
Huh?! What does that mean?!
**[06:11] ---**
Does that mean he's a real shinobi?!
**[06:15] ---**
That's right!
**[06:16] ---**
But if that's the case,
what's Kawaki's motive?
**[06:21] ---**
Huh? His motive?
**[06:22] ---**
The reason why he's hidden
the fact that he's a shinobi
**[06:25] ---**
and is attending the Academy.
**[06:26] ---**
That would be...
**[06:28] ---**
That would be...?
**[06:30] ---**
He's hiding his identity
to infiltrate the Academy
**[06:34] ---**
because he's trying to steal
some valuable information...
**[06:37] ---**
Maybe?
**[06:38] ---**
Ah, that's it!
**[06:40] ---**
It just has to be!
**[06:41] ---**
If that's the case, he's a horrible villain!
**[06:45] ---**
You need to write an article
about it right away!
**[06:47] ---**
So, where's your proof that Kawaki
has a real headband?
**[06:53] ---**
Look at this.
**[06:55] ---**
What is this?
**[06:57] ---**
It was sent to me by an unknown source.
**[07:00] ---**
Since then, I've been cautiously
keeping an eye on Kawaki.
**[07:03] ---**
And I saw him with a real headband
a little while ago.
**[07:07] ---**
I can't exactly say that counts as proof.
**[07:10] ---**
I don't want to print a fake story.
**[07:13] ---**
I'm going to need
some actual, physical proof.
**[07:18] ---**
Fine!
**[07:19] ---**
I'll get that headband and give it to you.
**[07:23] ---**
If it's genuine...
**[07:27] ---**
I feel like it's going to be a huge scoop!
**[07:30] ---**
*With this...
I can tear him away from Miss Kae!*
**[07:37] ---**
Let's take a break, everyone!
**[07:41] ---**
I think I'm going to get some fresh air.
**[07:52] ---**
Kawaki!
**[07:55] ---**
I wonder why Mr. Orochimaru
**[07:57] ---**
chose his path at the expense of
leaving behind friends.
**[08:01] ---**
What's this all of a sudden?
**[08:03] ---**
Orochimaru was apparently
chased out of the village
**[08:06] ---**
for researching Forbidden Jutsu.
**[08:08] ---**
Even though it meant parting ways with
**[08:10] ---**
his childhood friends,
Ms. Tsunade and Mr. Jiraiya.
**[08:15] ---**
I think friends are incredibly important.
**[08:23] ---**
I want to be with my friends forever.
**[08:26] ---**
That's why I wish I could
continue experiencing
**[08:30] ---**
the "Academy life" with everyone...
just like this.
**[08:35] ---**
Well, you know...
**[08:39] ---**
I'm here with you.
**[08:42] ---**
So, for now... isn't it okay to just
enjoy the present moment?
**[08:46] ---**
Kawaki!
**[08:50] ---**
All right, I'm going to
do my best in rehearsal!
**[08:57] ---**
That was not like me.
**[09:03] ---**
But before that...
**[09:05] ---**
Hey, Eiki!
**[09:07] ---**
I know you're there!
**[09:11] ---**
Damn it, you're still following Kae around?
**[09:16] ---**
If you don't cut it out,
I'll beat you up for real.
**[09:24] ---**
Damn it!
**[09:26] ---**
It's impossible to steal it
using regular methods,
**[09:29] ---**
even though he's just a slug...
**[09:32] ---**
A slug!
**[09:33] ---**
I see!
**[09:37] ---**
I just might be able to
take advantage of that!
**[09:46] ---**
No one's here?
**[09:50] ---**
Oh, Kawaki!
**[09:51] ---**
Everyone went to see the set for the play.
**[09:54] ---**
Oh, I see.
**[09:58] ---**
Is it true that you have a real headband?!
**[10:01] ---**
Huh?
**[10:01] ---**
Huh?
**[10:02] ---**
I heard that you've hidden
the fact that you're a shinobi
**[10:05] ---**
to infiltrate the Academy.
**[10:07] ---**
Could you give me your thoughts on that?
**[10:10] ---**
W-Well...
**[10:14] ---**
K-Kawaki, let's go!
**[10:18] ---**
Could I get a statement from you?
**[10:23] ---**
It's coming together!
**[10:26] ---**
It's just a temporary setup,
but I guess this should do.
**[10:28] ---**
I think this play is going to be amazing!
**[10:30] ---**
You're really something, Neon.
**[10:32] ---**
No one could have done a better job
on something like this.
**[10:35] ---**
No, I couldn't have done it
without everyone's help.
**[10:39] ---**
It's still unstable,
so we'll need to reinforce it more.
**[10:42] ---**
Let's do our best to finish it!
**[10:44] ---**
Now we can rehearse
like it's the actual performance.
**[10:48] ---**
I also need to brush up
on my improvisational skills
**[10:51] ---**
so I can deal with
any unexpected happenings.
**[10:54] ---**
Everyone, I have to leave to do
some work in the faculty room,
**[10:59] ---**
so please try not to get hurt!
**[11:02] ---**
Okay!
**[11:02] ---**
Okay!
**[11:04] ---**
Now, everyone, let's begin rehearsal!
**[11:07] ---**
Yeah!
**[11:07] ---**
Yeah!
**[11:17] ---**
Jiraiya Sensei,
**[11:18] ---**
are you really planning on
fighting Mr. Orochimaru?
**[11:22] ---**
Yeah. Tsunade and I
are the only ones who can stop him!
**[11:27] ---**
Sensei, let me go with you!
**[11:29] ---**
Minato, this has nothing to do with you.
**[11:32] ---**
Don't interfere.
**[11:34] ---**
Hey, Kande.
**[11:36] ---**
Wasn't Eiki playing Jiraiya?
**[11:38] ---**
Yeah. For some reason,
**[11:40] ---**
he said he wanted to switch roles with Ehou.
**[11:43] ---**
Eiki said that?
**[11:44] ---**
I can't believe he'd step down
from a leading role.
**[11:46] ---**
What's going on?
**[11:52] ---**
Scurry, scurry!
**[11:55] ---**
Orochimaru!
**[11:56] ---**
As your friend, I cannot allow you to leave!
**[12:00] ---**
Let's do this, Tsunade!
**[12:01] ---**
Got it, Jiraiya!
**[12:03] ---**
Summoning Jutsu!
**[12:03] ---**
Summoning Jutsu!
**[12:05] ---**
That's not it. This isn't it, either!
**[12:07] ---**
Found it!
**[12:11] ---**
Ribbit, ribbit!
**[12:16] ---**
Hiss!
**[12:18] ---**
Go forth, Manda!
**[12:20] ---**
Hiss!
**[12:21] ---**
Katsuyu, protect me!
**[12:24] ---**
Yes... Lady Tsunade...
**[12:27] ---**
Hiss!
**[12:31] ---**
Ow!
**[12:36] ---**
Slither, slither, slither, slither!
**[12:39] ---**
Slither, slither, slither, slither!
**[12:42] ---**
Slither, slither, slither!
**[12:44] ---**
*Are these two working together?!*
**[12:44] ---**
Slither, slither, slither!
**[12:48] ---**
Lord Orochimaru!
**[12:49] ---**
It looks like he's hiding something!
**[12:53] ---**
What's going on?
**[12:55] ---**
Th-That's not in the script!
**[12:57] ---**
Lord Orochimaru!
**[12:58] ---**
Please hurry!
**[13:02] ---**
Tsunade! It seems you were
hiding something up your sleeve!
**[13:06] ---**
Out of the way!
**[13:09] ---**
Summoning: Rashomon!
**[13:11] ---**
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go!
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go!
**[13:17] ---**
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go!
**[13:17] ---**
Hey, stop it!
**[13:19] ---**
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go!
**[13:19] ---**
Osuka's improvising is amazing!
**[13:22] ---**
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go!
**[13:27] ---**
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go!
**[13:27] ---**
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go!
**[13:40] ---**
You're finished now!
**[13:42] ---**
You bastard!
**[13:43] ---**
What's going on?
**[13:44] ---**
What's this about?
**[13:46] ---**
If I hand this over to Sosha,
**[13:48] ---**
she'll write about it in her paper
and the Academy's gonna—!
**[14:16] ---**
Is everyone okay?
**[14:18] ---**
Y-Yes... thanks to Kawaki!
**[14:22] ---**
Thank goodness!
**[14:24] ---**
Sosha!
**[14:25] ---**
Where's Sosha?
**[14:29] ---**
Sosha!
**[14:30] ---**
Here's the proof we talked about!
**[14:34] ---**
Now you can write your article, right?
**[14:37] ---**
But that's...
**[14:38] ---**
a handmade headband!
**[14:40] ---**
Huh?
**[14:41] ---**
Wha—?! What's going on?!
**[14:44] ---**
I'm sure I saw a real one!
**[14:47] ---**
Don't feed me fake stories!
**[14:50] ---**
It's not like that!
**[14:51] ---**
He definitely had a real one!
**[14:53] ---**
It would get him expelled from the Academy...
**[14:58] ---**
Damn it!
**[15:01] ---**
And then... I could protect Miss Kae!
**[15:08] ---**
What did you want to do?
**[15:10] ---**
Isn't it obvious?
**[15:12] ---**
I was going to get you—
**[15:14] ---**
Take a look...
**[15:15] ---**
Huh?
**[15:17] ---**
What are you talking about?
**[15:22] ---**
We all worked so hard to make this...
**[15:25] ---**
I wonder if we'll make it in time
for the school festival.
**[15:28] ---**
If the play gets cancelled...
**[15:34] ---**
Everyone was looking forward to the play.
**[15:37] ---**
Did you want to ruin it?
**[15:39] ---**
N-No!
**[15:41] ---**
I was... I was—!
**[15:43] ---**
I don't care one bit if you're
trying to dig up dirt on me.
**[15:46] ---**
But it's wrong to ruin the joy of people
**[15:50] ---**
who have nothing to do with this.
**[15:59] ---**
I-I'm sorry!
**[16:02] ---**
I-I... this wasn't my intent!
**[16:06] ---**
H-Hey now, come on!
**[16:17] ---**
Hey, could someone deal with him?
**[16:23] ---**
Seriously?
**[16:24] ---**
I have to do this?
**[16:25] ---**
Uh-huh.
**[16:33] ---**
I understand already.
**[16:36] ---**
Come on, let's fix the stage together!
**[16:39] ---**
Huh?
**[16:45] ---**
C'mon, Eiki!
**[16:51] ---**
Thank you!
**[17:08] ---**
We'll make it in time for
the school festival now!
**[17:11] ---**
Thank you, everyone!
**[17:13] ---**
It's getting dark. Should we head home?
**[17:16] ---**
Yeah.
***SIGN*** NINJA
**[17:18] ---**
Well, see you tomorrow!
**[17:20] ---**
Yeah, see you tomorrow!
**[17:23] ---**
See you tomorrow!
**[17:29] ---**
I'm sure I had it here!
**[17:31] ---**
Then we need to find it quick!
**[17:35] ---**
It's nowhere!
**[17:38] ---**
You two...
**[17:40] ---**
Huh?
**[17:44] ---**
Here you go.
**[17:46] ---**
Whoa!
**[17:51] ---**
Wait! Why did you have this?
**[17:55] ---**
I happened to overhear something.
**[18:03] ---**
*Kawaki has a real headband.*
**[18:06] ---**
*Huh?! What does that mean?!*
**[18:08] ---**
*Does that mean he's a real shinobi?!*
**[18:12] ---**
*That's right!*
**[18:16] ---**
So, when you fell during rehearsal earlier...
**[18:19] ---**
*Ow!*
**[18:24] ---**
*Slither, slither, slither, slither!*
**[18:27] ---**
*Slither, slither, slither, slither!*
**[18:29] ---**
Afterwards, I switched it out
**[18:31] ---**
while I was trying to raise you up
with the Rashomon.
**[18:34] ---**
So, that's when it happened!
**[18:38] ---**
Why would you do all this?
**[18:40] ---**
W-Well...
**[18:42] ---**
I wanted to repay you for saving me
when I was kidnapped.
**[18:47] ---**
You...
**[18:49] ---**
Even though you're a shinobi,
**[18:51] ---**
I suspect you had to re-enroll in the Academy
**[18:54] ---**
because of bad behavior, am I right?
**[18:56] ---**
H-Huh?
**[18:58] ---**
Don't worry.
**[19:00] ---**
Your secret is safe with me.
**[19:03] ---**
See you later!
**[19:07] ---**
Osuka's really nice, isn't she?
**[19:11] ---**
Bad behavior?
**[19:13] ---**
I guess I can't deny that.
**[19:15] ---**
Anyway, thanks to her, I'm safe.
**[19:19] ---**
That aside, where did they get that info?
**[19:23] ---**
I know, right?
**[19:25] ---**
I was so sure that no one knew.
**[19:30] ---**
Um, about earlier...
**[19:36] ---**
I'm really sorry!
**[19:39] ---**
I get that you regret what you did.
**[19:42] ---**
Forget about it already.
**[19:48] ---**
I vow never to do something like that
ever again!
**[19:51] ---**
Okay.
**[19:53] ---**
Damn it. I wish I never got this!
**[19:56] ---**
Huh?
**[19:56] ---**
Huh?
***SIGN*** KAWAKI IS A SHINOBI HE HAS A SECRET...
**[20:00] ---**
"Kawaki is a shinobi..."
**[20:02] ---**
"He has a secret that will get him
expelled from the Academy."
**[20:07] ---**
Who would pull a prank like this?
**[20:10] ---**
When I find them, they're gonna get it!
**[20:13] ---**
Well, see you tomorrow!
**[20:17] ---**
What was that?
**[20:18] ---**
That's not a simple prank, is it?
**[20:21] ---**
How would someone know about you?
**[20:24] ---**
*Is someone trying to get me away
from the Academy?*
**[20:29] ---**
Hey, where's Kae?
**[20:31] ---**
Miss Kae said she was tired,
so she went to the infirmary.
**[20:37] ---**
Kawaki!
**[20:41] ---**
What? Are you sure about that?
**[20:44] ---**
Yes, sir. His Majesty intends to
**[20:46] ---**
officially announce Princess Kae as his heir.
**[20:51] ---**
If he does that, our efforts to push
**[20:54] ---**
her younger brother to be heir
would be for nothing!
**[20:56] ---**
What should we do, Minister?
**[21:00] ---**
It seems the time has come to use *them.*
**[21:04] ---**
I figured you would say that,
**[21:06] ---**
so I've already given them their orders.
**[21:08] ---**
I see.
**[21:10] ---**
Even the Leaf won't realize...
**[21:15] ---**
that an assassin has
infiltrated them in such a way.
**[21:47] ---**
No way!
**[21:48] ---**
There really was an assassin!
**[23:25] ---**
It's almost time for the performance!
**[23:28] ---**
I'm getting nervous!
**[23:29] ---**
Wouldn't a princess be used to
being in front of people?
