**[00:04] ---**
I'm coming in, Tsunade.
**[00:06] ---**
Jiraiya? Did you learn anything?
**[00:09] ---**
I discovered the whereabouts
of the Akatsuki leader.
**[00:12] ---**
What?! Is that true?!
**[00:14] ---**
Tell me more!
**[00:15] ---**
We'll use that information
to plan a surprise attack!
**[00:19] ---**
Don't be hasty, now.
**[00:21] ---**
This isn't like plotting
a sequel to your novel!
**[00:24] ---**
We don't have the time to waste!
**[00:26] ---**
Haste makes waste.
**[00:29] ---**
Especially with the stakes
this high...
**[00:33] ---**
Say, why don't we grab
a drink together?
**[00:35] ---**
Just you and me.
**[00:37] ---**
I'll tell you everything there.
**[00:39] ---**
You fool! I am the Hokage!
**[00:42] ---**
And you're asking me to go
drinking in broad daylight?!
**[00:44] ---**
Have you no shame when
our ninja are on duty?!
**[00:48] ---**
SAKE
BAR
**[00:51] ---**
You know...
**[00:53] ---**
You really ought to take your own words
a bit more to heart.
**[00:57] ---**
Drinking sake straight out
of the bottle...
**[01:01] ---**
Remember, you *are* the Hokage, right?
**[02:34] ---**
*Twilight
*
**[02:40] ---**
That girl's late...
**[02:42] ---**
How long does it take to
pick up supplies...?
**[02:46] ---**
I wish it would get dark soon...
**[02:49] ---**
*After Jugo and Suigetsu turn in,*
**[02:51] ---**
*I'll make my move on Sasuke
*while he sleeps!*
**[02:55] ---**
*I'm so excited!*
**[03:07] ---**
This feeling...
**[03:13] ---**
Well, Kiba?!
**[03:15] ---**
I'm concentrating, trying to
single out Sasuke's faint scent!
**[03:18] ---**
So shut up! You're distracting me!
**[03:26] ---**
*There's no mistake...
*They're steadily approaching.*
**[03:30] ---**
*One...two...*
**[03:32] ---**
*Their chakra is strong too.*
**[03:35] ---**
*There're quite a few.*
**[03:41] ---**
*I sense non-human chakra too.*
**[03:45] ---**
*Dogs?*
**[03:46] ---**
*Are they tracking our scent?*
**[03:48] ---**
*Is it Akatsuki?
*Or maybe the Hidden Leaf?*
**[03:52] ---**
INN OKOSHI
**[03:53] ---**
Jugo.
**[03:55] ---**
I'm gonna go check on Karin.
**[03:57] ---**
Yeah.
**[04:04] ---**
Wh-What...?
**[04:06] ---**
Wake up, Sasuke!
**[04:08] ---**
We're going to have company!
What do we do?!
**[04:12] ---**
*Sasuke just waking up...is also nice!*
**[04:15] ---**
We escape... Get ready.
**[04:17] ---**
Jugo, mark every Akatsuki hideout
that we know.
**[04:30] ---**
You're okay now, Sasuke?
**[04:32] ---**
Yeah. I've been healing a lot faster
since I absorbed Orochimaru's power.
**[04:37] ---**
*So this is the Power of the White Snake...*
**[04:39] ---**
Whether it's Akatsuki
or the Hidden Leaf,
**[04:42] ---**
they might have information
on Itachi.
**[04:44] ---**
So why don't we ambush them, Sasuke?
**[04:47] ---**
From what you reported about
the number of people,
**[04:50] ---**
it's most likely the Hidden Leaf.
**[04:55] ---**
Akatsuki always work
in two-man cells.
**[04:58] ---**
Which means an ambush
would be a waste of time.
**[05:02] ---**
Exactly. Forget the Hidden Leaf.
**[05:05] ---**
Then what'll we do?
**[05:07] ---**
Itachi is our only priority.
**[05:09] ---**
Once we locate him,
worse comes to worst,
**[05:12] ---**
you three must stop
the Hidden Leaf.
**[05:14] ---**
For now, team "Hebi" will use
the information gathered by Jugo
**[05:19] ---**
and check out Akatsuki hideouts
one by one.
**[05:21] ---**
All right...
**[05:23] ---**
Let's go.
**[05:30] ---**
Help me out for a second.
**[05:32] ---**
With that?
**[05:33] ---**
Can you gather as many birds
as you can?
**[05:36] ---**
What do you plan on doing?
**[05:38] ---**
This is Sasuke's old outfit.
**[05:41] ---**
It's soaked with his sweat
and smell, so we'll use this to...
**[05:43] ---**
Why would you have an outfit
that Sasuke threw away?
**[05:46] ---**
Uh...! Th-That...
That's not important...
**[05:50] ---**
Y-You jerk!
**[05:53] ---**
A-Anyway...
**[05:55] ---**
*I hate to do this, but...*
**[05:57] ---**
Sensory-Type Ninja have
different specialties
**[05:59] ---**
depending on their village.
**[06:02] ---**
The Hidden Leaf often
use ninja hounds.
**[06:04] ---**
So we'll use that to
our advantage.
**[06:10] ---**
What's wrong, Kiba?
**[06:12] ---**
Shoot! Sasuke is starting to move!
**[06:15] ---**
Let's hurry!
Sasuke is going after Itachi!
**[06:19] ---**
Hold it, something's wrong!
**[06:22] ---**
Sasuke's scent is dispersing!
**[06:24] ---**
Not only that,
it's scattering in all directions!
**[06:27] ---**
He's on to us.
Taking strategic action.
**[06:31] ---**
On to us? But how?!
**[06:33] ---**
I don't know what kind of power.
**[06:35] ---**
But I'm guessing he has
a skilled Sensory-Type Ninja on his side.
**[06:40] ---**
The distance is too great,
**[06:42] ---**
so I can't guide you
through the wireless.
**[06:44] ---**
I'm the only one
who can pursue him...
**[06:46] ---**
But it's one scent. What'll we do?
**[06:49] ---**
I'll find him if I have to search
every blade of grass!
**[06:53] ---**
With whatever means necessary!
**[06:55] ---**
Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu!
**[07:06] ---**
It's up ahead...
**[07:09] ---**
You guys wait until I give the order.
I'll go and see.
**[07:25] ---**
*Who's that...?*
**[07:28] ---**
*Sharingan?!*
**[07:30] ---**
*Sasuke?!*
**[07:42] ---**
*Th-That's--!*
**[07:46] ---**
*Itachi...Uchiha!*
**[07:51] ---**
Come on out... Naruto Uzumaki.
**[07:59] ---**
You've come to capture me?
**[08:01] ---**
No...I didn't.
I just came to talk to you.
**[08:15] ---**
Like I'd ever trust you!
**[08:21] ---**
*When up against the Sharingan,*
**[08:23] ---**
*if it's one on one, always run away.*
**[08:26] ---**
*If it's two against one,
*get his back...*
**[08:29] ---**
*But in his case...*
**[08:31] ---**
*Even while making a seal,*
**[08:32] ---**
*he can put his target under a genjutsu
*using only finger movements...*
**[08:36] ---**
*I have to be careful!*
**[08:39] ---**
I know that you're alone.
So why don't you run?
**[08:43] ---**
Hah! My numbers can go from
one to a thousand!
**[08:47] ---**
Besides, I can't run away!
**[08:50] ---**
If I capture you, I get to see Sasuke!
**[08:59] ---**
Why are you so attached to my brother?
**[09:02] ---**
He's a Rogue Ninja.
**[09:07] ---**
That's because unlike you...
**[09:10] ---**
I think of him as a brother
more than you ever would.
**[09:29] ---**
You're already under my genjutsu.
**[09:33] ---**
Dammit!!
**[09:40] ---**
I'll say it again.
**[09:41] ---**
I just wanted to talk to you
for a moment.
**[09:47] ---**
This Akatsuki leader is in
the Hidden Rain Village, correct?
**[09:52] ---**
Yes.
**[09:54] ---**
But that place conducts thorough checks
of anyone entering and exiting their territory,
**[09:58] ---**
and they track
how long visitors stay.
**[10:01] ---**
Just preparing for the Joint
Chunin Exams is difficult each time
**[10:03] ---**
because the village is
so closed off to others.
**[10:09] ---**
Doesn't seem like a place where
the Akatsuki leader can move about freely.
**[10:14] ---**
However...because security is so strict,
**[10:18] ---**
they're able to keep other nations
from learning about their internal affairs,
**[10:21] ---**
and hence, keep a lid on any shame.
**[10:24] ---**
Shame?
**[10:26] ---**
It seems that land has seen
much internal strife,
**[10:30] ---**
and the village itself
has been split into two.
**[10:33] ---**
Word has it that the leader of one side
is also the leader of Akatsuki.
**[10:39] ---**
That land is surrounded by
**[10:41] ---**
EARTH
WIND FIRE
the three great nations
of Earth, Wind and Fire.
**[10:44] ---**
And from ages past,
**[10:46] ---**
it has been the battleground
of their conflicts.
**[10:50] ---**
As a result, there has never been
domestic stability
**[10:53] ---**
and the number of refugees
is continually on the rise.
**[10:55] ---**
That is why I will infiltrate
**[10:58] ---**
and verify the information
we have gathered.
**[11:02] ---**
Then we can plan strategy...
**[11:05] ---**
It's too dangerous to go alone!
**[11:07] ---**
I am one of the Legendary Sannin
of the Leaf.
**[11:09] ---**
You know what that means as well.
**[11:16] ---**
I'm sorry...
**[11:19] ---**
that you always get
the short end of the stick.
**[11:24] ---**
What's with you?!
**[11:26] ---**
I'm saying, you were
supposed to be Hokage.
**[11:30] ---**
The Third Hokage always wanted you
to be the next to--
**[11:34] ---**
I was never cut out for
that sort of thing.
**[11:36] ---**
Being on my own suits me too well...
**[11:38] ---**
You regretted not being able
to stop Orochimaru.
**[11:41] ---**
So all that time,
**[11:42] ---**
you were tracking his movements alone,
isn't that right?
**[11:49] ---**
I no longer need to do so.
**[11:52] ---**
That means I get to release
the sequel to my novel sooner.
**[11:57] ---**
Fact is stranger than fiction, isn't it?
**[12:01] ---**
Who would have imagined that
Orochimaru would die...
**[12:09] ---**
Remember how the three of us would
go up against Old Man Third and...
**[12:12] ---**
The flat-chested Tsunade has
become the big-bosomed Hokage!
**[12:16] ---**
Times are changing by the second.
**[12:19] ---**
You were beautiful back then...
**[12:21] ---**
and now, you're a
fifty-something old granny.
**[12:24] ---**
It pains me to see how all the memories
of your lost friends and loved ones
**[12:28] ---**
are stored inside
that big breast of yours.
**[12:31] ---**
And you know, the number
will continue to grow.
**[12:42] ---**
I guess I shouldn't
wallow in sadness.
**[12:46] ---**
My duty is to be a model
for the next generation
**[12:49] ---**
and to help them.
**[12:55] ---**
For that, I'd happily give my life.
**[12:58] ---**
It's what makes us old folks cool, see?
**[13:18] ---**
Wh-What's going on?
**[13:21] ---**
Aren't you after me?
Then this is your...!
**[13:25] ---**
I'm going now...
**[13:28] ---**
I have an important task to do.
**[13:33] ---**
*Shadow Clone...*
**[13:35] ---**
*What was that?*
**[13:38] ---**
Damn! This one's a bust too!
**[13:47] ---**
What's wrong, Naruto?
**[13:48] ---**
Oh, nothing...
**[13:51] ---**
Did something happen?
**[13:53] ---**
I just tripped.
**[13:56] ---**
Never mind that.
Kiba, track the next scent.
**[14:05] ---**
Your drinking habits are
worse than mine...
**[14:08] ---**
Want to stop and rest somewhere?
**[14:11] ---**
It's late. We have to go home.
**[14:14] ---**
- Okay!
- Okay!
**[14:16] ---**
Hey, wait up!
**[14:20] ---**
Akatsuki...
**[14:22] ---**
The leader is capable of organizing
a group so powerful...
**[14:26] ---**
Who knows how strong he may be?
**[14:29] ---**
You'll be walking right into
the enemy's territory.
**[14:34] ---**
Well then... I should set out.
**[14:39] ---**
Come back alive...
**[14:43] ---**
If I lost you too... I...
**[14:47] ---**
You'll cry for me?
That'll make me happy!
**[14:51] ---**
But I doubt that it'll be
like the time Dan died.
**[14:55] ---**
You idiot!
**[14:57] ---**
Then how about making a bet with me?
**[15:01] ---**
You bet that I will die.
**[15:05] ---**
After all, you always lose.
**[15:10] ---**
But if I make it back alive...
**[15:26] ---**
Joking! I'm just joking!
**[15:28] ---**
You know, I'm grateful to you.
**[15:33] ---**
Rejection makes a man stronger.
**[15:35] ---**
MAKE-OUT PARADISE
In other words,
you can't call yourself a real man
**[15:39] ---**
unless you can laugh off stuff like that.
**[15:41] ---**
Better yet, make a joke out it.
**[15:45] ---**
So a man's duty is to be strong?
**[15:48] ---**
Kind of...
**[15:50] ---**
And besides... men aren't the only ones
who seek happiness.
**[15:56] ---**
Humph... Stop trying to act so cool.
**[15:59] ---**
Without a woman,
you guys can't be rejected.
**[16:03] ---**
That's so true.
**[16:24] ---**
If anything happens,
contact me through your toad.
**[16:28] ---**
I'll rush over myself.
**[16:30] ---**
No need for that.
You must not leave here.
**[16:35] ---**
The village relies on you now.
**[16:38] ---**
There are other candidates
for Hokage.
**[16:41] ---**
There can be no stability
if the Hokage keeps changing.
**[16:45] ---**
Right now, you are the only one
who can be Hokage.
**[16:50] ---**
There's Kakashi.
**[16:52] ---**
And eventually, there's also Naruto...
**[16:57] ---**
You're really sold on Naruto, aren't you?
**[17:02] ---**
Although, I can understand...
**[17:05] ---**
Your kid brother Nawaki...
Your sweetheart Dan...
**[17:14] ---**
*- It's my dream to become Hokage.
*- It's my dream to become Hokage.*
**[17:21] ---**
And Naruto too...
**[17:24] ---**
I guess you could say
they chased the same dream.
**[17:28] ---**
Sure, Kakashi can step in.
**[17:31] ---**
But Naruto still has a long way to go,
even though you gave him your necklace.
**[17:35] ---**
You have high hopes
for him too...
**[17:39] ---**
You taught him the Rasengan.
**[17:41] ---**
Oh that... Well, call it nostalgia.
**[17:44] ---**
It reminded me of the days
when I taught Minato.
**[17:48] ---**
Minato Namikaze...
True, Naruto does resemble him.
**[17:52] ---**
Minato was a genius that appears
only once in a generation.
**[17:57] ---**
There won't be another like him.
**[18:00] ---**
He was kind-hearted,
but had nerves of steel.
**[18:04] ---**
He rose to become
the Fourth Hokage so swiftly.
**[18:07] ---**
I've never been a parent, so I don't know
much about these things...
**[18:10] ---**
but if he had been my son,
I think I'd have been awfully proud.
**[18:16] ---**
Now that you mention it...
Naruto might not resemble him, after all.
**[18:20] ---**
Rather than a son
you boast about,
**[18:23] ---**
he'd be the problem child,
always up to mischief.
**[18:25] ---**
Naruto is more like his mother...
**[18:30] ---**
Wasn't she a former kunoichi
from the Land of Eddies...?
**[18:33] ---**
Yeah... His personality and ninjutsu style
is just like Kushina Uzumaki.
**[18:38] ---**
Yes...that's her name!
**[18:41] ---**
That talkative, red-haired rascal...
She was such a tomboy.
**[18:46] ---**
Kushina grew up to be a beauty,
but Naruto looks like his father.
**[18:52] ---**
I can see Naruto's father in him...
**[18:56] ---**
To me, it feels as though
I'm looking at my grandson.
**[19:01] ---**
It is being passed on...
**[19:03] ---**
the will of the Leaf,
from the past to the future.
**[19:18] ---**
I guess I'll be off.
**[19:25] ---**
Oh, that's right!
**[19:27] ---**
I had one last warning for you.
**[19:29] ---**
Huh?
**[19:32] ---**
Beware of the Foundation.
**[19:35] ---**
Yeah... I know.
**[19:37] ---**
Ah... Good then.
**[19:44] ---**
Farewell.
**[21:36] ---**
Now, now, now!
**[21:38] ---**
Those from afar, listen carefully!
**[21:40] ---**
Those up close, come and see!
**[21:42] ---**
I am the super hot ninja
of the Leaf!
**[21:46] ---**
I can hear the wild cheers
of all the girls!
**[21:49] ---**
I may steal your hearts,
but they won't shatter!
**[21:52] ---**
I help the weak and fight the strong!
**[21:54] ---**
Now let the tale
of Jiraiya Ninja Scrolls begin!
**[21:59] ---**
Next time: "Tales of a Gutsy Ninja
~ Jiraiya Ninja Scrolls ~ Part 1"
**[22:05] ---**
TSUNADE'S ROOM
**[22:08] ---**
Now then, today's guest is...
**[22:09] ---**
Hold it right there!
**[22:12] ---**
The most holy hermit sage
of the spirit of Mt. Myoboku Toads!
**[22:15] ---**
I am the great Master Jiraiya!
**[22:19] ---**
Oh, it's you.
**[22:20] ---**
What a greeting!
Aren't you happy to see me?
**[22:23] ---**
Well, we don't have much to talk about.
**[22:27] ---**
Don't say that. How about dwelling
into my heroic tales?
**[22:31] ---**
Heroic tales, huh...?
**[22:32] ---**
Yeah, something that'll make the women
watching their TV shout for joy.
**[22:36] ---**
You mean like long ago...
**[22:37] ---**
for the crime of peeking
into the hot springs...
**[22:39] ---**
the Third Hokage made
you sit for hours...
**[22:42] ---**
or the time you had
a book-signing for your first novel...
**[22:45] ---**
it didn't sell at all and
not one single soul showed up?
**[22:49] ---**
There must be more than that!
**[22:51] ---**
Hmm... Can't think of anything.
**[22:53] ---**
I guess that's all I am to you, huh?
**[22:56] ---**
- Oh!
- That's right. Tell them that!
**[22:59] ---**
Time's up. Goodbye.
**[23:02] ---**
What?!
**[23:04] ---**
Tune in again!
