**[00:08] ---**
So, these are the basement stacks...
**[00:10] ---**
I-24...
**[00:12] ---**
I-24...
**[00:14] ---**
I-...
**[00:16] ---**
Found it!
***SIGN*** MAP OF THE HEAVENS
**[00:24] ---**
"Map of the Heavens."
**[00:26] ---**
That's it!
**[00:28] ---**
Did you figure something out?
**[00:29] ---**
These are Tailed Beasts!
**[00:32] ---**
It looks like we're gradually getting closer
**[00:34] ---**
to the Ultra Particles.
**[00:36] ---**
Yeah.
**[00:37] ---**
But we still don't know how the information
**[00:39] ---**
from the Map of the Heavens
is connected to
**[00:41] ---**
"the part of the sky that fell to earth,"
**[00:42] ---**
where the Ultra Particles are located.
**[00:44] ---**
Are there any other suspicious
places we haven't checked?
**[00:48] ---**
Zansul's room apparently has a cellar.
**[00:50] ---**
The director's room has one?
**[00:53] ---**
It's only a rumor, but it could exist.
**[00:56] ---**
But his room is heavily guarded.
**[00:59] ---**
We need to think of some way
to get around that.
**[01:05] ---**
Yes, that would be the perfect opportunity!
**[01:08] ---**
Tomorrow, the Prime Minister's messenger
**[01:10] ---**
will be arriving from the capital
to meet with Zansul.
**[01:12] ---**
I see.
**[01:13] ---**
We can take advantage of that.
**[01:15] ---**
If I disguise myself as the messenger
**[01:16] ---**
and meet with Zansul,
**[01:18] ---**
we should get a chance
to slip into the cellar.

The Secret in the Cellar*
**[03:15] ---**
Oh, looks like I got it right again!
**[03:27] ---**
Gah! Are you kidding me?
**[03:31] ---**
I won!
**[03:34] ---**
Man, how do you always know when
Meno's gonna come by our cell?
**[03:40] ---**
I understand animals pretty well.
**[03:43] ---**
My girlfriend was into horseback riding,
**[03:45] ---**
so I've learned a bunch from her.
**[03:48] ---**
Ganno, could you lend me
that branch for a bit?
**[03:51] ---**
Huh? What are ya gonna do
with that thing?
**[03:58] ---**
What are you doing?
**[03:59] ---**
That's dangerous!
**[04:00] ---**
It's all right.
**[04:02] ---**
Meno won't attack
unless a rule's being broken.
**[04:07] ---**
Hey, come here!
**[04:15] ---**
It really came over!
**[04:17] ---**
What?! How?!
**[04:19] ---**
This guy's usually curled up
under the almond tree, right?
**[04:23] ---**
It doesn't even eat almonds,
**[04:26] ---**
so I think it just likes the scent.
**[04:28] ---**
That makes sense.
**[04:30] ---**
You can touch it right now!
**[04:32] ---**
Nope, nope, nope!
**[04:33] ---**
Absolutely not!
**[04:36] ---**
What about you, Sasuke?
**[04:39] ---**
I don't want to lose my right arm.
**[04:41] ---**
You guys are no fun.
**[04:44] ---**
You really suppose it's all right?
**[04:46] ---**
Oh, Ganno!
**[04:47] ---**
Just what I'd expect from our elder!
**[04:53] ---**
Nice and easy, okay?
**[04:58] ---**
Oh!
**[05:04] ---**
Maybe I'll give it a shot too.
**[05:07] ---**
Oh, sure thing.
**[05:09] ---**
Go on.
**[05:20] ---**
Get back!
**[05:32] ---**
Why did it do that out of the blue?!
**[05:34] ---**
It was so tame right up to that point.
**[05:36] ---**
It was your foot.
**[05:37] ---**
When you approached the iron bars,
**[05:40] ---**
your toes slipped outside of our cell.
**[05:42] ---**
What?!
**[05:43] ---**
Hands are okay, but feet aren't?
**[05:45] ---**
As far as Meno's concerned,
**[05:47] ---**
a foot on the ground counts as
leaving the cell, I guess?
**[05:51] ---**
We ended up wasting what
precious little oil we had left...
**[05:57] ---**
It wasn't exactly my fault!
**[05:59] ---**
You're the one who kicked it!
**[06:01] ---**
What's all the fuss?!
**[06:03] ---**
Did you all do something?
**[06:05] ---**
No, those two were just fighting.
**[06:09] ---**
Sorry for the ruckus!
**[06:11] ---**
Damn it, if you make another fuss,
you're gonna get it.
**[06:15] ---**
Yes, sir. I'll keep them in line!
**[06:29] ---**
*Please come in.*
**[06:31] ---**
*I'll come to meet you.*
**[06:39] ---**
Welcome. Thank you for coming.
**[06:43] ---**
Mr. Zansul has asked me
to escort you to his office.
**[06:50] ---**
Is something wrong?
**[06:51] ---**
Oh, no!
**[06:53] ---**
I just expected I'd be greeted by
a fearsome-looking man!
**[06:56] ---**
One would expect that here.
**[06:58] ---**
Please, this way.
**[07:00] ---**
Of course.
**[07:03] ---**
I apologize for the delay.
**[07:05] ---**
I am a government official
sent by the Prime Minister
**[07:08] ---**
to deliver a message to Mr. Zansul.
**[07:10] ---**
My name is Fandal.
**[07:12] ---**
Thank you for coming all this way.
**[07:14] ---**
Over here, please.
**[07:19] ---**
So... what does the Prime Minister want?
**[07:23] ---**
The thing is, even I'm not
sure of the specifics.
**[07:26] ---**
The Prime Minister just told me
to inquire about the "progress"...
**[07:31] ---**
Progress?
**[07:32] ---**
Relating to what?
**[07:34] ---**
I don't know.
**[07:35] ---**
I was told he would know what that means...
**[07:38] ---**
*I guess the messenger
wouldn't know the details.*
**[07:42] ---**
Is this your first time meeting Mr. Zansul?
**[07:45] ---**
Yes, formally.
**[07:46] ---**
I've seen him countless times
when he's visited the palace.
**[07:51] ---**
I see...
**[07:53] ---**
And when was it again that Mr. Zansul
**[07:55] ---**
last visited the Prime Minister?
**[07:57] ---**
I believe it was last summer.
**[08:00] ---**
My wife is an attendant at the palace
**[08:03] ---**
and was assigned to tend to
Director Zansul then.
**[08:09] ---**
Here we are.
**[08:12] ---**
Please go on in.
**[08:13] ---**
All right.
**[08:26] ---**
Did it go well?
**[08:27] ---**
Yeah.
**[08:28] ---**
When he wakes up,
he won't remember a thing.
**[08:31] ---**
As we planned yesterday,
**[08:34] ---**
I'll pretend to be this man,
**[08:36] ---**
meet with Zansul,
and try to buy you some time.
**[08:38] ---**
I leave it to you.
**[08:39] ---**
Meanwhile, I'll sneak into
the cellar in his room
**[08:43] ---**
and find a clue to the Ultra Particles.
**[08:45] ---**
Come to think of it,
about Zansul's artificial eye...
**[08:49] ---**
After looking through the documents
in the infirmary,
**[08:51] ---**
I found out that he has a weakness.
**[08:54] ---**
A weakness?
**[08:55] ---**
The artificial vision tech of
the Nation of Redaku
**[08:57] ---**
employs a jutsu
that transplants the visual powers
**[08:59] ---**
of a different person into an artificial eye.
**[09:01] ---**
That's why he isn't affected
by things like genjutsu,
**[09:04] ---**
but he can still see things.
**[09:06] ---**
But the artificial eye
has a structural problem.
**[09:09] ---**
It has a narrow field of vision
at higher angles.
**[09:16] ---**
And that's his blind spot, huh?
**[09:18] ---**
That's right.
**[09:20] ---**
But be careful.
**[09:21] ---**
It may differ for each person.
**[09:23] ---**
Understood.
**[09:25] ---**
Now, onto business.
**[09:36] ---**
I've brought the messenger.
**[09:38] ---**
Enter.
**[09:41] ---**
Please excuse me.
**[09:42] ---**
My apologies, I got lost.
**[09:46] ---**
It's fine.
**[09:47] ---**
How good of you
to make the long journey here.
**[09:52] ---**
Nice to meet you.
**[09:53] ---**
I am Fandal.
**[09:55] ---**
Please, have a seat.
**[09:56] ---**
Yes, thank you.
**[10:01] ---**
Does the Prime Minister fare well?
**[10:04] ---**
It's been over half a year since we last met.
**[10:10] ---**
He's doing well.
**[10:12] ---**
I'm glad to hear that.
**[10:17] ---**
*So that's the entrance to the cellar.*
**[10:20] ---**
Has Queen Manari gotten used to
her official duties by now?
**[10:24] ---**
Yes, she has...
**[10:28] ---**
Look at that.
**[10:29] ---**
It's started raining.
**[10:35] ---**
*Now!*
**[10:40] ---**
It's not raining at all.
**[10:45] ---**
*Oh no!*
**[10:58] ---**
You must have imagined it...
**[11:00] ---**
*He didn't see him...*
**[11:03] ---**
I must still be exhausted
from my long journey.
**[11:06] ---**
I can't blame you.
**[11:08] ---**
We are far from the capital city, after all.
**[11:11] ---**
By the way, Mr. Fandal,
**[11:13] ---**
what happened to your cane?
**[11:18] ---**
My cane?
**[11:19] ---**
You had it when you entered this room.
**[11:22] ---**
I don't see it anywhere.
**[11:24] ---**
O-Oh, that?
**[11:27] ---**
My cane's right here.
**[11:28] ---**
Oh, so that's where it was.
**[11:31] ---**
Pardon me.
**[11:33] ---**
It's all right.
**[11:35] ---**
*That was close!*
**[11:37] ---**
By the way,
**[11:38] ---**
I heard that the water shortage
in the capital city is quite dire...
**[11:41] ---**
Yes, it is.
**[11:42] ---**
Though it hasn't hit home yet,
**[11:44] ---**
since the palace is first in line
to receive food and water.
**[11:55] ---**
I see...
**[11:59] ---**
*Sasuke! You're being too bold!*
**[12:04] ---**
*I need to draw Zansul's attention,
so he doesn't notice him...*
**[12:09] ---**
To tell you the truth...
**[12:11] ---**
I've seen you before last summer,
Mr. Zansul...
**[12:16] ---**
You did?
**[12:17] ---**
Pardon me for not noticing.
**[12:21] ---**
Speaking of last summer,
**[12:23] ---**
that was right after
the late king passed away.
**[12:31] ---**
Queen Manari is still so young.
**[12:34] ---**
I suppose the Prime Minister
must be quite busy.
**[12:37] ---**
Yes.
**[12:39] ---**
*Sasuke, hurry!*
**[12:42] ---**
*I'll map out the keyhole with chakra...*
**[12:46] ---**
*and construct a key with Earth Style.*
**[12:51] ---**
Mr. Fandal...
**[12:54] ---**
Uh, yes?
**[12:56] ---**
Perhaps it's time you told me
what the Prime Minister wants.
**[13:00] ---**
Y-Yes, understood.
**[13:03] ---**
What's the matter?
**[13:05] ---**
Oh, nothing...
**[13:08] ---**
Has something in this room
caught your attention?
**[13:11] ---**
I just remembered!
**[13:14] ---**
The attendant who was assigned
to you during your visit
**[13:19] ---**
just happened to be my wife!
**[13:31] ---**
*All right!*
**[13:36] ---**
Mr. Fandal...
**[13:37] ---**
The message...
**[13:39] ---**
R-Right, of course.
**[13:44] ---**
It's quite strange,
**[13:46] ---**
but it consists of a single question.
**[13:49] ---**
"How is the progress?"
**[13:52] ---**
How very typical of the Prime Minister.
**[13:55] ---**
Progress is good.
**[13:57] ---**
Please tell him that
I already intend to send the assets
**[14:01] ---**
to the capital city.
**[14:03] ---**
Understood.
**[14:05] ---**
By the way, these "assets",
how many are we talking about?
**[14:09] ---**
Mr. Fandal...
**[14:15] ---**
You're just the messenger.
**[14:18] ---**
I cannot risk giving specific numbers.
**[14:22] ---**
There's no need to worry.
**[14:24] ---**
The Prime Minister will understand.
**[14:35] ---**
Forgive me!
**[14:37] ---**
I apologize for
overstepping my boundaries!
**[14:41] ---**
Oh, it's all right,
as long as you understand.
**[15:01] ---**
*I hope I can successfully find
any clues to the Ultra Particles...*
**[15:16] ---**
The sound of wings?
**[15:37] ---**
What is this place?
**[15:47] ---**
A large amount of chickens...
**[15:49] ---**
and fossils...
**[15:56] ---**
This is—!
**[16:01] ---**
Thank you very much for today.
**[16:03] ---**
Please send the Prime Minister my regards.
**[16:07] ---**
Understood.
**[16:09] ---**
If you will excuse me...
**[16:15] ---**
*Sasuke, I hope you escape safely.*
**[16:31] ---**
*I see it was connected to
the back of the main building.*
**[16:36] ---**
*I didn't find clues to the Ultra Particles,*
**[16:39] ---**
*but I solved one mystery.*
**[16:43] ---**
*The things stored in Zansul's cellar...*
**[16:46] ---**
*The large amount of fossils
that he made the inmates dig up...*
**[16:51] ---**
*The large amount of chickens...*
**[16:54] ---**
*And...*
**[16:56] ---**
*That suspicious altar...*
**[17:00] ---**
*In short, what he's been doing in there is...*
**[17:04] ---**
*Reanimation!*
**[17:09] ---**
*Meno?!*
**[17:29] ---**
*Reanimation...*
**[17:33] ---**
*a Forbidden Jutsu that brings
a person back from the dead*
**[17:36] ---**
*by using their DNA and a sacrifice.*
**[17:40] ---**
*The reason why there are
dragon beasts in this land...*
**[17:44] ---**
*is because of Reanimation!*
**[17:48] ---**
*The passageway is how all of you
are released outside.*
**[17:59] ---**
*The wound hasn't healed?*
**[18:11] ---**
*And it doesn't have a Paper Tag!*
**[18:15] ---**
*In order to control the person
brought back to life by Reanimation,*
**[18:20] ---**
*a Paper Tag needs to be embedded
into their head.*
**[18:23] ---**
*But it's clear that
it's taking orders from Zansul.*
**[18:35] ---**
*Strictly speaking,
even if it's not Reanimation,*
**[18:39] ---**
*the basic premise should be the same.*
**[18:42] ---**
*Which means forcefully overwriting the jutsu*
**[18:45] ---**
*to make it obey me should be possible!*
**[18:55] ---**
That rage...
**[18:57] ---**
Is it because your wound hurts?
**[19:17] ---**
Don't worry.
**[19:19] ---**
I just created a form of
supercooled Mist Style...
**[19:24] ---**
to apply cold to your wound.
**[19:33] ---**
Meno, listen to what I have to say.
**[19:41] ---**
It's understandable that you're angry.
**[19:44] ---**
You were forcefully awakened
after resting peacefully
**[19:47] ---**
for hundreds of millions of years, after all.
**[19:50] ---**
Don't you want to go back
to the place where you were?
**[19:54] ---**
I can get you back.
**[19:56] ---**
But in order to do that,
**[19:57] ---**
I need your help.
**[20:07] ---**
*Now!*
**[20:10] ---**
*I'm going to infuse my chakra*
**[20:12] ---**
*directly through its tongue membrane!*
**[20:29] ---**
*Did I overwrite the genjutsu?*
**[20:41] ---**
Meno!
**[20:54] ---**
Okay, I got it, Meno!
**[20:57] ---**
Go home and rest for today.
**[21:37] ---**
Ah!
**[21:40] ---**
Soon...
**[21:41] ---**
I'll obtain it very soon.
**[21:45] ---**
Once I do,
my army of dragon beasts will be...
**[21:50] ---**
unstoppable!
**[23:25] ---**
It actually looks like a star filled
sky right on the earth's surface.
**[23:28] ---**
I doubt there's a more perfect match for
**[23:30] ---**
"the sky that fell to the earth."
**[23:32] ---**
Yeah.
**[23:33] ---**
Sakura, I've never once worried
about us when we've been apart.
**[23:38] ---**
Sasuke...
**[23:39] ---**
But... if it will give you
some peace of mind...
