[01:19] ---
    Sasori...
[01:49] ---
    All right, break's over.
[01:52] ---
    Guy Sensei, are you sure?
[01:54] ---
    Yeah. I'm totally fine.
    I woke up completely refreshed.
[01:59] ---
    Neji.
[02:00] ---
    No problem. He has appalling
    recuperative power.
[02:05] ---
    Uh-huh... So that leaves...
[02:06] ---
    I'm ready to go, too.
[02:11] ---
    All right, now to make up
    for the time we lost resting,
[02:14] ---
    we're going to double the pace.
[02:17] ---
    What?!
[02:18] ---
    No, let's make it triple.
[02:20] ---
    If we do that, we'll arrive
    earlier than first planned.
[02:23] ---
    I see.
[02:24] ---
    All right guys,
[02:25] ---
    let's make it quadruple
    the pace while we're at it.
[02:31] ---
    What's the matter?
[02:33] ---
    That's impossible,
    no matter how you consider things.
[02:35] ---
    I told you guys to stop
    getting so carried away!
[02:38] ---
    Guy Sensei, that's why
    I said triple the pace.
[02:41] ---
    Lee, that's a little off, too.
[02:53] ---
    Now then...
[02:56] ---
    That should be enough rest...
[03:02] ---
    Break time is over.
    We should get going.
[03:09] ---
    Wake up, you two.
    We're leaving.
[03:12] ---
    O-Okay.
[03:15] ---
    A little longer...
    Let me sleep a little longer.
[03:19] ---
    You're going to save Gaara, aren't you?
[03:24] ---
    Of course I am!
[04:59] ---
    The Death of Gaara!
    
    
    
[05:08] ---
    The enemy hideout
    should be in this direction...
[05:14] ---
    I'm sorry... Gaara...
[06:11] ---
    We'll now be entering
    the final stage.
[06:20] ---
    What shall we do about the pesky flies?
[06:24] ---
    They're moving
    at a greater speed than anticipated.
[06:28] ---
    No problem.
[06:30] ---
    We stalled them effectively.
    Just ignore them.
[06:33] ---
    Besides, we've got some insurance.
[06:37] ---
    In the end, we'll be the ones
    who have to take care of them.
[06:41] ---
    Let's hurry and finish
    things up here, Deidara.
[06:45] ---
    We've got guests to greet.
[06:48] ---
    You'll want to catch
    a breath before that, don't you?
[06:51] ---
    That's right.
[06:53] ---
    We have welcoming preparations
    to take care of.
[06:59] ---
    Man, they're sure a pain.
[07:03] ---
    And we're having a hard time
    finding our Jinchuriki...
[07:06] ---
    Don't get so irritated.
[07:08] ---
    We just need to take care
    of our own missions.
[07:14] ---
    That's enough idle chatter.
[07:15] ---
    Concentrate! Mistakes will
    not be tolerated from here on.
[08:00] ---
    Each team will be deployed
    as I just announced.
[08:03] ---
    The absence of Lord Kazekage
    is a highly classified matter!
[08:07] ---
    However, operate under
    the assumption
[08:09] ---
    that the information has
    already been leaked.
[08:12] ---
    It's conceivable that the nearby lands
[08:14] ---
    will take advantage of this confusion
    and execute an attack.
[08:18] ---
    Don't think of this as
    just an ordinary border patrol.
[08:22] ---
    The teams that are ready
    will depart at once.
[08:30] ---
    What's the matter, Matsuri?
[08:33] ---
    Is this really okay?
[08:36] ---
    Is what okay?
[08:38] ---
    Lord Gaara has been kidnapped.
[08:41] ---
    And yet, here we are guarding
    a border
[08:44] ---
    for an enemy who may or may not come
    instead of trying to save him.
[08:48] ---
    It's an order from our superiors.
    We can only obey.
[08:52] ---
    No way!
[08:53] ---
    Lord Gaara is the Hidden Sand's...
[08:56] ---
    our Kazekage!
[08:58] ---
    I know that!
    Gaara's my little brother, you know!
[09:03] ---
    I'm sorry...
[09:07] ---
    This way.
[09:08] ---
    Right!
[09:24] ---
    I don't like it.
[09:25] ---
    What is it, Neji?
[09:27] ---
    Is it an enemy?
[09:28] ---
    No, just the opposite.
[09:30] ---
    I don't feel any enemy presence at all.
    That's what's bothering me.
[09:36] ---
    Here they went so far as to use...
[09:38] ---
    that powerful of a Jutsu
    in an attempt to stall us.
[09:42] ---
    Then...
[09:43] ---
    Could it be...?
[09:50] ---
    They no longer need to stall us.
[09:54] ---
    I'm saying there's
    a good chance of that.
[09:57] ---
    Don't tell me...
[10:55] ---
    H-He's...
[10:57] ---
    Hang on, Gaara.
[11:06] ---
    Naruto, wait up!
[11:10] ---
    Geez.
[11:14] ---
    Why's that kid trying so hard to
    save Gaara who's from a different village?
[11:22] ---
    And what in the world is he?
[11:26] ---
    He's also a Jinchuriki.
[11:30] ---
    He has the Nine-Tail sealed within him.
[11:37] ---
    Indeed, Naruto probably
    doesn't have much attachment
[11:40] ---
    to the Hidden Sand itself.
[11:44] ---
    But Gaara is a Jinchuriki Host
    just like he is.
[11:49] ---
    More than anyone
    in the Hidden Sand,
[11:51] ---
    Naruto knows how Gaara feels.
[11:54] ---
    After all, the Jinchuriki has been
    treated the same way in every village.
[12:15] ---
    That's exactly why he feels
    like he has to save Gaara.
[12:20] ---
    It doesn't make
    any difference to him
[12:22] ---
    if he's from the Leaf or the Sand.
[12:26] ---
    For Naruto, Gaara is a friend
[12:28] ---
    who knows the same pain as he does.
[12:36] ---
    Naruto's dream is to
    become the Hokage.
[12:39] ---
    He was frustrated when he heard
    that Gaara had become the Kazekage.
[12:43] ---
    I see. So Gaara became
    the Kazekage, huh?
[12:48] ---
    But at the same time,
[12:50] ---
    he was also very happy for
    Gaara from the bottom of his heart.
[12:55] ---
    I won't be outdone by him!
[13:01] ---
    I'll become the Hokage,
    no matter what.
[13:03] ---
    Just you wait, Gaara!
[13:07] ---
    Naruto has a mysterious power.
[13:13] ---
    However small the words he exchanges,
    he makes friends immediately...
[13:17] ---
    with everyone he meets.
[13:22] ---
    I myself have lived a long life.
[13:27] ---
    I've seen many things.
[13:32] ---
    And in my own way,
[13:33] ---
    I've learned the nature
    of things in this world.
[13:36] ---
    Learning that the alliance with
    other lands were for show only,
[13:42] ---
    what I did was to create resources
    to protect the Hidden Sand.
[13:54] ---
    I'm the one who used the Jutsu...
[13:56] ---
    and forced the possession
    of the Shukaku on Gaara.
[14:01] ---
    After consulting with his father
    the Fourth Kazekage, that is.
[14:06] ---
    What I did to protect the village
    ended up just hurting it.
[14:12] ---
    And now a village I avoided
    because I couldn't believe in alliances
[14:16] ---
    is trying to help us.
[14:20] ---
    Everything I've done might
    have been mistaken.
[14:26] ---
    And now I've gotten old
    and learn to give up easily.
[14:33] ---
    Kakashi...
[14:36] ---
    Young people have
    so much potential within...
[14:43] ---
    I'm so envious.
[14:45] ---
    Oh no, you're just getting started...
[14:48] ---
    You're still very much young.
[14:56] ---
    That's right...
[14:58] ---
    There might still be something
    an old bag like me can do.
[15:07] ---
    Something I can do.
[15:24] ---
    It's about finished.
[15:34] ---
    Whose...hand is this?
[15:39] ---
    Oh...it's my hand.
[15:46] ---
    Have I...become an existence
    someone needs?
[15:55] ---
    Huh? What?
[16:01] ---
    Is that me?
[16:07] ---
    That's me... The me who wanted
    to be needed by...someone...
[16:15] ---
    Why...? Why did I want
    to be like that?
[16:20] ---
    Why...am I...
    an existence that desires that?
[16:28] ---
    Those eyes. That nose.
    That mouth.
[16:37] ---
    Why?
[16:39] ---
    Why is that Gaara?
[16:44] ---
    I was inside that...
[16:47] ---
    No...
[16:49] ---
    What am I in the first place?
[16:52] ---
    I'm just aware that I'm me.
[16:55] ---
    What am I...in the first place?
[17:01] ---
    I'm just a small...feeling.
[17:22] ---
    It's finished.
[17:42] ---
    Oh man.
[17:44] ---
    In the end, it took three days
    and three nights.
[17:50] ---
    It's exhausting every time, isn't it?
[17:55] ---
    Ohhh, my shoulders are all stiff.
[18:01] ---
    Good work, everyone.
[18:36] ---
    I've got a bad feeling
     about this.
[18:39] ---
    Damn it! Isn't there something I can do?
[18:56] ---
    This is the place, huh?
[18:59] ---
    Gaara is on the other side
    of this boulder.
[19:01] ---
    It looks like they put up a barrier.
[19:04] ---
    What's the plan?
[19:06] ---
    Let's bust through!
[19:07] ---
    No!
[19:15] ---
    You're late... Kakashi.
[19:18] ---
    Well, you see...
[19:19] ---
    We got caught up in
    something troublesome along the way.
[19:22] ---
    Naruto! Sakura!
[19:24] ---
    Kakashi...
[19:26] ---
    By troublesome, you certainly
    don't mean me, do you?
[19:30] ---
    Hey!
[19:32] ---
    Naruto...
[19:33] ---
    We were just a step behind
    you guys, huh?
[19:36] ---
    Who's the old woman there?
[19:39] ---
    Oh, this is Lady Chiyo,
    a consultant to the Sand.
[19:44] ---
    Nice to meet you.
[19:45] ---
    Now, shall we do this, Kakashi?
[19:49] ---
    Yeah.
[19:54] ---
    Hang on, Gaara.
[21:37] ---
    Allow me to explain!
[21:38] ---
    The title of the next episode is,
    "Button Hook Entry."
[21:40] ---
    This refers to a method Ninja
    used to break through entrances
[21:42] ---
    by fanning out left and right
    with the entrance in between.
[21:45] ---
    By the way, it seems
    a lot of people tend to confuse
[21:47] ---
    my "Dynamic Entry" as
    a name for a Jutsu,
[21:50] ---
    but it's a credited way
    to break into places.
[21:52] ---
    It's an excellent tactic
    where speed is of the essence,
[21:54] ---
    and also serves as
    an effective diversion!
[21:55] ---
    How about that?!
[21:56] ---
    Now you're more knowledgeable
    about our mission!
[22:02] ---
    Next episode:
    "Charge Tactic! Button Hook Entry!!"
