[00:22] ---
    Ow!
[00:26] ---
    Owww...
[00:27] ---
    Focus!
[00:30] ---
    Though it's just a little,
    your body is moving!
[00:32] ---
    Don't forget, "stay still"!
[00:36] ---
    Doing this without using the oil
    is a lot harder than I thought.
[00:40] ---
    Of course it is!
[00:42] ---
    Don't expect it'll be so easy
    when you don't use the oil!
[00:50] ---
    Not even the slightest quiver!
[00:53] ---
    Say, I was just thinking...
[00:56] ---
    What is it?
[00:57] ---
    Why can't I just take this oil
    with me when I fight?
[01:00] ---
    Then I won't need to learn
[01:03] ---
    how to take in Nature Energy
    without the oil.
[01:06] ---
    That is impossible.
[01:07] ---
    Huh? Why?
[01:09] ---
    Outside of Mount Myoboku's climate,
    this oil vaporizes immediately.
[01:16] ---
    No kidding?!
[01:18] ---
    I thought I told you.
[01:20] ---
    The oil is only to help you
    grasp the concept.
[01:25] ---
    Yes, sir!
[01:26] ---
    But the way you change
    into a frog so quickly...
[01:29] ---
    Naruto-boy, you lack concentration!
[01:33] ---
    You're not taking it
    seriously enough!
[01:35] ---
    No, that's not true.
[01:37] ---
    After all, I did get the knack of
    this thing from the previous training.
[01:40] ---
    Enough! Just follow me!
[01:55] ---
    Hey... This isn't what
    I'm thinking, is it?
[01:59] ---
    It's exactly that.
    This is your next training site.
[02:04] ---
    Stack a stone slab atop that summit
    and begin Zen meditation.
[02:07] ---
    If your concentration wavers
    and you move even slightly,
[02:10] ---
    you will fall to the bottom
    of the ravine.
[02:13] ---
    F-From up there?
[02:23] ---
    Hmm... This should do.
[02:26] ---
    Follow me, Naruto-boy!
[02:39] ---
    Stay still!
[02:41] ---
    You must learn to stop
    your motion as an animal.
[02:44] ---
    Find your own center of balance,
[02:47] ---
    and motionlessly synchronize
    with nature!
[03:01] ---
    S-Saved.
[03:03] ---
    Taking in Nature Energy
    will have to wait
[03:05] ---
    until you first perfect staying still.
[03:15] ---
    No way!
[03:19] ---
    Oww...
[03:24] ---
    Maybe it's time for a break.
[03:30] ---
    Damn...
[03:32] ---
    It's this hard just to stay still...
[03:35] ---
    Isn't this training sorta ridiculous?
[03:39] ---
    Such nonsense!
[03:41] ---
    Your master, Jiraiya-boy,
    managed this feat.
[03:45] ---
    Huh? Don't tell me...
    Pervy Sage trained here too?
[03:51] ---
    Yes. He and I came here often.
[04:04] ---
    Thank you, Lord Fukasaku!
[04:06] ---
    *Say Jiraiya-boy,
    how about we call it a day?
[04:11] ---
    Nah! I can still keep on going.
[04:17] ---
    But...
[04:18] ---
    *I think I'm on the verge
    of grasping it...
[04:21] ---
    *So can you help me for
    a while longer?
[04:26] ---
    I must say, he had more guts
    than anybody else around.
[04:31] ---
    Say, how long did Pervy Sage
    take on this training?
[04:36] ---
    Well, Jiraiya-boy came here to
    train between missions,
[04:43] ---
    so it took him some time...
[04:46] ---
    I see.
[04:49] ---
    Naruto-boy?
[04:51] ---
    Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu!
[04:53] ---
    I don't have the luxury of time.
[04:54] ---
    So I have to pick up the pace!
[04:57] ---
    Pervy Sage did the same training!
[05:00] ---
    So I've gotta do my best too!
[05:15] [SONG] ---
    What did I really lose that day?
[05:15] [SONG] ---
    ano hi honto ni ushinatta monotte nan dattakke
[05:21] [SONG] ---
    For the life of me, I can't remember.
[05:21] [SONG] ---
    tou ni wasureteshimatta yo
[05:27] [SONG] ---
    We slowly lost sight of each other in the twilight...
[05:27] [SONG] ---
    yuugure de futari sukoshizutsu mienakunatteitte
[05:32] [SONG] ---
    And yet we're stuck here - unable to go home.
[05:32] [SONG] ---
    sore nanoni bokura kaerezu ni ita
[05:37] [SONG] ---
    Weak, frail souls lost in the world...
[05:37] [SONG] ---
    dokoka ni kowaresou na moroi kokoro
[05:43] [SONG] ---
    We act strong to hide their fragility.
[05:43] [SONG] ---
    tsuyogaru kotoba de ootte kakushiteru
[05:48] [SONG] ---
    Hide their fragility...
[05:48] [SONG] ---
    ootte kakushiteru
[05:51] [SONG] ---
    So farewell, but even forced apart...
[05:51] [SONG] ---
    sayonara aenakunattatte
[05:56] [SONG] ---
    Our stories go on.
[05:56] [SONG] ---
    bokura wa tsuzuki ga aru kara
[06:03] [SONG] ---
    Even in a world without you, I run.
[06:03] [SONG] ---
    kimi no inai sekai datte hashiru yo
[06:09] [SONG] ---
    To someday get past the pain.
[06:09] [SONG] ---
    itsuka no itami mo koete
[06:19] [SONG] ---
    koete
[06:19] [SONG] ---
    Someday...
[06:32] ---
    Surpassing the Master
    
    
[06:53] ---
    It's no good...
[06:55] ---
    Focus, Naruto-boy!
[07:10] ---
    That's pretty colorful
    and yummy looking.
[07:13] ---
    Oh, would you like one, Naruto-boy?
[07:16] ---
    It's my favorite, larva riceballs.
[07:19] ---
    No thanks!
[07:28] ---
    Oh no!
[07:34] ---
    Oh...
[08:15] ---
    *It's looking good.
    He's rapidly amassing Nature Energy.
[08:40] ---
    He's finally got it!
[08:42] ---
    *I'm impressed at how far
    he's gotten without using the oil.
[08:59] ---
    *He's displaying the rings around
    the eyes. Proof of Sagehood.
[09:03] ---
    And no frog aspects either!
[09:06] ---
    *This might mean Naruto-boy
    has become a Sage,
[09:09] ---
    surpassing Jiraiya-boy!
[09:12] ---
    And it seems he's able to build up
[09:14] ---
    *even more Sage Jutsu chakra
    than when he was using the oil.
[09:18] ---
    How does it feel?
[09:20] ---
    Hmm... Now I kinda get what it means
    to become one with nature.
[09:42] ---
    Owwww...
[09:44] ---
    Huh? It doesn't hurt that much...
[09:50] ---
    And that is Sage Mode!
[09:52] ---
    Your body has been activated
    on many levels.
[09:56] ---
    W-Wow! Sage Mode, huh?!
[09:59] ---
    Now that you've mastered
    Sage Mode,
[10:02] ---
    we've come to the final step.
[10:05] ---
    What?! Final step?
    You mean there's more?!
[10:10] ---
    It's a type of sparring
[10:12] ---
    that Sages perform using
    Sage Jutsu chakra.
[10:14] ---
    Now I shall teach you
    how to do Frog Kumite!
[10:27] ---
    You are so useless!
[10:29] ---
    Why'd you leave behind
    my Executioner's Blade?!
[10:32] ---
    Shut up, Suigetsu!
[10:34] ---
    Just be thankful
    we didn't leave you behind!
[10:37] ---
    Look who's talking!
    You were also passed out, Karin!
[10:41] ---
    I got knocked out trying
    to protect you guys!
[10:44] ---
    It's the result of us trying
    to protect each other.
[10:47] ---
    We're like fish and water,
[10:49] ---
    so close we can't do
    without one another.
[10:51] ---
    So quit quarreling.
[11:01] ---
    Fine.
[11:02] ---
    By the way, are we really
    going to get
[11:04] ---
    the Tailed Beast's power, Sasuke?
[11:06] ---
    Hmph. Who knows?
[11:09] ---
    But it seems there's no need
    to rely on that anymore.
[11:14] ---
    Why?
[11:16] ---
    I have obtained new powers...
[11:19] ---
    *Strong enough to destroy
    the Hidden Leaf.
[11:26] ---
    What's wrong, Sasuke?
[11:34] ---
    It's nothing.
[11:36] ---
    What is it, Karin?
[11:38] ---
    I sense a chakra outside.
    It seems we've been tailed.
[11:50] ---
    Now, go!
[12:01] ---
    Forgive me, Lord Raikage...
[12:05] ---
    It appears my tail was unsuccessful.
[12:24] ---
    Not only Yugito,
    but now Bee too...
[12:27] ---
    I cannot believe that Bee
    has been taken down!
[12:30] ---
    We have been receiving several
    messenger lizards from Jay.
[12:35] ---
    Once we've pinpointed
    the enemy's whereabouts,
[12:37] ---
    we'll send in four cells to
    rescue Lord Killer Bee,
[12:40] ---
    and wipe out the enemy.
[12:42] ---
    I heard it was an Uchiha
    from the Hidden Leaf
[12:45] ---
    who kidnapped my little brother!
[12:47] ---
    Why is there an Uchiha
    in the Akatsuki?!
[12:50] ---
    Sasuke Uchiha...
[12:52] ---
    It appears he went rogue
    from the Hidden Leaf
[12:54] ---
    quite some time ago.
[12:56] ---
    Why hasn't the Leaf's Hokage dealt
    with this Rogue Ninja?!
[13:00] ---
    They were so quick to react
    over the Hyuga incident!
[13:09] ---
    *Something's wrong...
    The messages have ceased.
[13:47] ---
    Naruto-boy, let's call it a day.
[13:53] ---
    No, not yet!
[13:55] ---
    I'm the one that can't go on.
[13:57] ---
    However...you're starting to
    get the hang of it.
[14:03] ---
    Yes, sir!
[14:47] ---
    What?!
[14:48] ---
    What do you mean the messages
    from Jay have ceased?!
[14:52] ---
    It seems Jay has either
    been killed or captured.
[14:56] ---
    So we're unable to confirm
    the enemy's location.
[15:01] ---
    Use whatever information we have
    to narrow down the location,
[15:04] ---
    and search every inch
    of the place!
[15:06] ---
    I don't care if you have
    to dispatch a battalion!
[15:09] ---
    Y-Yes sir.
[15:11] ---
    Summon Samui's platoon too!
[15:13] ---
    I'm giving them
    a document of intent to
[15:15] ---
    deliver to the Hidden Leaf
[15:17] ---
    stating that we will take care
    of Sasuke Uchiha!
[15:19] ---
    And have them give us
    intel on him!
[15:21] ---
    Yes, right away!
[15:24] ---
    Furthermore, I'm going to convene
[15:26] ---
    a Five Kage Summit Conference
    with the Five Great Nations!
[15:28] ---
    The Akatsuki will not be forgiven!
[15:33] ---
    Omoi, Karui...
    Lord Raikage has summoned us.
[15:38] ---
    Summoned, eh?
[15:41] ---
    What in the world could it be?
[15:43] ---
    Maybe there's a crisis...
[15:45] ---
    Or maybe... We're getting scolded?
[15:49] ---
    Did he find out that my body fat
    percentage has spiked?
[15:53] ---
    Maybe eating potatoes with
    mayonnaise wasn't a good idea?
[15:57] ---
    Omoi, you always think too much!
[16:00] ---
    Why would he scold you
    for something like that?!
[16:02] ---
    The most that would happen is
[16:04] ---
    you could get sent to
    buy some protein.
[16:06] ---
    Being around you guys
    is so tiring.
[16:10] ---
    Makes my shoulders ache.
[16:13] ---
    The stiff shoulders are probably
    caused by those big breasts of yours,
[16:16] ---
    although one can't say for sure.
[16:19] ---
    What you thought was just
    a stiff shoulder could actually...
[16:22] ---
    Will you shut up!
    Quit yakking and let's go!
[16:26] ---
    You ought to think things
    through more carefully.
[16:29] ---
    A flat-chested person like you
    may not get stiff shoulders, Karui, but...
[16:31] ---
    Shut up!
[16:33] ---
    Oww! Now that kick will cause...
[16:36] ---
    You got more to say?!
[16:37] ---
    You two...
    If you're ninja, act cooler.
[16:40] ---
    Let's go!
[16:54] ---
    I pulled it off!
[17:09] ---
    Even though it's far from perfect...
[17:12] ---
    I need more practice while
    in Sage Mode.
[17:16] ---
    And, I have to make sure
    no one sees me.
[18:07] ---
    Jay...
[18:09] ---
    We were too late.
[18:22] ---
    TO HOKAGE
    FROM RAIKAGE
[18:25] ---
    Mission acknowledged.
[18:27] ---
    I'm counting on you!
[18:28] ---
    I knew it...
    I had a bad feeling about this.
[18:31] ---
    Damn!
[18:33] ---
    Don't worry!
[18:34] ---
    No way Lord Killer Bee would
    screw up like that.
[18:37] ---
    It's probably some bad joke.
[18:42] ---
    How can you be optimistic?!
[18:44] ---
    He could be suffering right
    this moment!
[18:47] ---
    In fact, he could already...
[18:48] ---
    Shut up! I don't want to hear
    your pessimistic thoughts!
[18:54] ---
    He's our master!
[18:55] ---
    We're talking about
    Lord Killer Bee here!
[18:57] ---
    There's no way he'd be defeated!
[18:59] ---
    Aren't you worried about Lord Bee, Karui?
[19:02] ---
    Don't get morbid ideas just
    because you're worried!
[19:05] ---
    Enough, you two!
[19:08] ---
    We'll save Bee,
    no matter what it takes!
[19:12] ---
    We will save him!
[19:15] ---
    - *Lord Raikage!
    - Lord Raikage!
[19:22] ---
    Ah! You've made great progress!
[19:34] ---
    Nice, Naruto-boy.
    That's some jumping power.
[19:37] ---
    Your Frog Kumite is
    also pretty good!
[19:41] ---
    Heh... That's not all!
[19:44] ---
    Shadow Clone Jutsu!
[19:46] ---
    What?
[19:51] ---
    It ain't over!
    I'm just getting started!
[19:54] ---
    Come at me!
[21:36] ---
    The sudden appearance of six figures
    shakes up the Leaf Village.
    
    
[21:41] ---
    Cries of fear...
    
    
[21:42] ---
    People fleeing in panic...
    
    
[21:43] ---
    Pillars of smoke arise one
    after another...
    
    
[21:46] ---
    Unable to fight back,
    the Leaf Ninjas are engulfed
    
    
[21:49] ---
    by the spiral of suffering set
    in motion by Pain.
    
    
[21:52] ---
    Amidst the merciless invasion,
    
    
[21:54] ---
    Tsunade is convinced the fateful day
    has finally arrived.
    
    
[22:00] ---
    Next time on Naruto Shippuden:
    "Assault on the Leaf Village!"
    
    
[22:04] ---
    NEJI CHRONICLES?
[22:06] ---
    Hey everyone! How're you all doing?!
[22:08] ---
    Today I brought Neji,
[22:10] ---
    who hasn't made
    any appearances at all!
[22:13] ---
    What do you mean
    no appearances?!
[22:15] ---
    I'm constantly away
    on important missions!
[22:18] ---
    Let's see...
[22:19] ---
    The last time you made
    an appearance was a month...
[22:21] ---
    No, six months ago?
    Wait, how long has it been?
[22:23] ---
    I forgot! I don't do it for
    the sake of standing out.
[22:26] ---
    Oh yeah? Lee and Tenten
    from your squad
[22:28] ---
    sure stood out the last time, though.
[22:30] ---
    What?!
[22:32] ---
    Why those two...
[22:34] ---
    Hmph. They have free time
    on their hands,
[22:36] ---
    unlike a jonin such as myself.
[22:37] ---
    Right, it's tough being you.
[22:41] ---
    Darn you!
[22:42] ---
    Hey, come along with me
    on my next mission!
[22:46] ---
    We'll call it "Neji Chronicles"
[22:48] ---
    NEJI CHRONICLES
    
    
    and air it as a spectacular
    one-hour special!
[22:52] ---
    No, no way. It'll never happen.
[22:54] ---
    So, everyone, please continue
    to watch only my adventures! Okay?
[22:59] ---
    That's just not right!
[23:01] ---
    I object, object, object!
[23:02] ---
    Objection, denied!
    
    
    
[23:04] ---
    Tune in again!
