**[00:19] ---**
I'm coming in, Granny.
**[00:23] ---**
This is from your daughter
and her husband.
**[00:27] ---**
Oh my, thank you.
**[00:33] ---**
Here's a letter for you.
**[00:38] ---**
Hey, it's Kiba.
**[00:40] ---**
I hear he volunteered to act as
a messenger
**[00:43] ---**
for the people of the village.
**[00:46] ---**
Those two are always together.
**[00:49] ---**
You were too...back then.
**[00:51] ---**
Huh?
**[00:53] ---**
Remember? When you were
completely stuck to Sasuke.
**[00:56] ---**
That's 'cuz we were both on Team 7.
So were you...
**[01:00] ---**
I don't mean that.
**[01:01] ---**
This was different.
You two were inseparable, literally.
**[01:06] ---**
Now I remember!
**[01:11] ---**
That's right. That's the time
we were on a mission
**[01:15] ---**
to retrieve the treasure belonging to
the Feudal Lord's sister or whoever,
**[01:18] ---**
which had been stolen by thieves.
**[02:55] ---**
*- Leaf's History -
The Worst Three-Legged Race*
**[03:00] ---**
According to our Intel,
the thieves who took the golden statue
**[03:05] ---**
are either traveling on land
through this forest path
**[03:07] ---**
or sailing by boat and will land here.
**[03:12] ---**
We're going to split up into
two teams and lie in wait for them.
**[03:17] ---**
In terms of balance,
**[03:19] ---**
I guess I should go alone and
the three of you will be together.
**[03:23] ---**
What do you mean by that?
**[03:25] ---**
Are you saying Sasuke needs
all the help he can get?
**[03:28] ---**
No, you're the hindrance.
**[03:30] ---**
I'm not up to your level yet,
but surely 3 to 1 is too much.
**[03:35] ---**
Why don't you take Naruto
off my hands?
**[03:37] ---**
Subtract his skill from yours,
and we'll be even.
**[03:40] ---**
Huh?!
**[03:41] ---**
*Sasuke, is that just
a clever approach*
**[03:43] ---**
*so that you and I
can be alone together?!*
**[03:49] ---**
You've got to be kidding!
**[03:51] ---**
Why would you subtract my skill?!
**[03:53] ---**
Because you have nothing to add.
**[03:55] ---**
What?!
**[03:57] ---**
Sasuke wants to be with me so much,
he's getting impatient!
**[04:00] ---**
You're just as irritating!
**[04:09] ---**
Okay, pay attention.
**[04:12] ---**
I'll watch the pier.
**[04:14] ---**
And you three will keep an eye
on this path in the forest.
**[04:17] ---**
If the thieves appear,
notify me immediately.
**[04:20] ---**
Do not take them lightly.
**[04:22] ---**
Our mission is to retrieve
the golden statue.
**[04:26] ---**
We must proceed with utmost caution.
**[04:30] ---**
If the thieves appear on my side,
I will send a signal with this.
**[04:34] ---**
When this lightning barrel
is tossed into the air,
**[04:36] ---**
it will release one thunderbolt.
**[04:38] ---**
Once you verify it,
rush straight to that location.
**[04:43] ---**
You better handle that with care.
**[04:46] ---**
Now remember.
**[04:47] ---**
You are not to act alone.
**[05:00] ---**
*It's the gang of thieves!*
**[05:16] ---**
Why you...
**[05:18] ---**
Idiot!
**[05:19] ---**
Careful with the treasure!
**[05:22] ---**
I'm sorry, Boss Jako!
**[05:24] ---**
Shape up!
**[05:25] ---**
Yes sir!
**[05:27] ---**
*Treasure?! In that wicker box?*
**[05:30] ---**
*This is...my chance!*
**[05:34] ---**
*Amazing, Naruto!*
**[05:36] ---**
*You showed up Sasuke real good!*
**[05:44] ---**
*Don't tell me he's up to the same...*
**[05:48] ---**
*I won't lose to him!*
**[05:58] ---**
W-What's this?
**[06:09] ---**
Damn! The treasure!
**[06:12] ---**
*What are those two doing?!*
**[06:14] ---**
*We have to notify
Kakashi Sensei first!*
**[06:17] ---**
What? There's another?
**[06:41] ---**
Let go of the treasure!
**[06:44] ---**
No way!
**[06:45] ---**
Take this!
**[06:59] ---**
I won't lose it.
**[07:08] ---**
Huh?
**[07:18] ---**
Damn it.
**[07:30] ---**
Pursuers from
the Hidden Leaf, eh?
**[07:33] ---**
Were those two
the only ones with you?
**[07:39] ---**
There must be others.
**[07:41] ---**
That's why you tried to get word out
about this location.
**[07:59] ---**
Cool, huh?
**[08:00] ---**
I'm a natural-born thief
who's rotten to the core.
**[08:04] ---**
So as you can see,
even my chakra is foul.
**[08:12] ---**
Those two escaped downriver.
**[08:15] ---**
We'll split up and concentrate our search
along the river and we'll find them.
**[08:18] ---**
And we'll take back the treasure.
**[08:20] ---**
What about her?
**[08:22] ---**
We might be able to use her
as a hostage.
**[08:24] ---**
Bring her with us.
**[08:33] ---**
I can't believe they stole
something stupid like this.
**[08:39] ---**
The thunder...
**[08:40] ---**
Huh?
**[08:41] ---**
The thunderbolt to signal Kakashi
didn't go off, did it?
**[08:45] ---**
No.
**[08:47] ---**
Maybe Sakura couldn't release it.
**[08:50] ---**
Sakura's been captured?!
**[08:58] ---**
- Huh?
- Huh?
**[08:59] ---**
Wha-?
**[09:00] ---**
- Huh?
- Huh?
**[09:01] ---**
- What is this?!
- What is this?!
**[09:05] ---**
W-What's going on?
**[09:08] ---**
We're stuck together.
**[09:14] ---**
- Ready...pull!
- Ready...pull!
**[10:32] ---**
Why is it always with you?!
**[10:34] ---**
That's my line!
**[10:49] ---**
Don't worry.
You'll see your friends soon.
**[10:53] ---**
After they return the treasure
**[10:56] ---**
I'll send you to the afterlife together.
**[11:00] ---**
Even ninja are helpless
if their hands are bound.
**[11:07] ---**
*Sasuke... Naruto...*
**[11:11] ---**
Sakura...
**[11:15] ---**
While we're stuck like this,
Sakura could be...
**[11:19] ---**
You idiot, Naruto!
**[11:22] ---**
Sakura... I'm coming to save you!
**[11:26] ---**
Wait! You fool!
**[11:33] ---**
What the hell are
you doing, Sasuke?!
**[11:35] ---**
Don't you care what happens
to Sakura?!
**[11:38] ---**
We will save Sakura!
**[11:40] ---**
But we can't do anything if
our hands are like this.
**[11:42] ---**
We're going to save her despite that.
It's what friends do!
**[11:47] ---**
I...I don't want to be some scum who
doesn't give a damn about his friends!
**[11:56] ---**
*Those who abandon their friends
are worse than scum.*
**[12:01] ---**
Then joining up with Kakashi
is the right move to make!
**[12:05] ---**
It will increase Sakura's chance
of survival!
**[12:08] ---**
Don't talk about
her chance of survival!
**[12:10] ---**
It just depends on how hard
we want to save her!
**[12:14] ---**
We can't let Sakura die
over something this stupid!
**[12:17] ---**
You idiot! Stop it, Naruto!
**[12:23] ---**
Damn it... Damn it... Damn it...
**[12:29] ---**
You know, a guy who doesn't take
his mission seriously is also scum.
**[12:42] ---**
Gotta pee.
**[12:43] ---**
What?!
**[12:44] ---**
I said, I need to take a leak!
**[12:50] ---**
Hey, what the hell?!
**[12:52] ---**
Uh...well...
**[12:54] ---**
Okay, one hand then.
**[12:56] ---**
Cut it out! Not so close!
**[12:58] ---**
What if you spray me too?!
**[12:59] ---**
I don't care what you say.
If I gotta go, I gotta go.
**[13:02] ---**
Hold it in!
**[13:04] ---**
Can't.
**[13:06] ---**
- Just let me finish, okay? Come on.
- Zip up, you idiot!
**[13:27] ---**
You're in my way, Naruto!
**[13:29] ---**
You're the one who's in my way!
**[13:33] ---**
Give back the treasure!
**[13:41] ---**
Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu!
**[13:46] ---**
Like you can weave a sign
with one hand!
**[13:48] ---**
Didn't I tell you?
**[13:49] ---**
At this rate,
we don't have a chance,
**[13:51] ---**
even against guys much
weaker than us!
**[14:03] ---**
Naruto...wait!
**[14:05] ---**
I'm going.
**[14:08] ---**
If you refuse...
**[14:09] ---**
I'll cut off my arm, then go.
**[14:12] ---**
I'm going to beat this guy
and save Sakura!
**[14:24] ---**
You're so reckless!
**[14:36] ---**
I'm going to save Sakura.
**[14:39] ---**
Since the enemy came this far,
**[14:41] ---**
we'll probably be found before
we catch up to Kakashi.
**[14:44] ---**
If that's the case,
**[14:45] ---**
it'll be faster if we make this guy tell us
where Sakura is and save her.
**[14:51] ---**
Sasuke...
**[14:52] ---**
Though it'll depend totally
on us working together.
**[14:58] ---**
Right!
**[15:01] ---**
Oh, I just remembered.
I gotta pee.
**[15:13] ---**
Me too.
**[15:34] ---**
What? Suguro hasn't come back?
**[15:38] ---**
I wonder if he...
**[15:40] ---**
You're wondering right.
**[15:41] ---**
Yeah!
**[15:44] ---**
*Sasuke! Naruto!*
**[15:50] ---**
Huh?
**[16:00] ---**
Free at last.
**[16:02] ---**
Only a Feudal Lord's sister
could own a gold statute like that.
**[16:05] ---**
It managed to pull us apart.
**[16:09] ---**
Their hands are free now?
**[16:11] ---**
You can have it
**[16:13] ---**
in exchange for our partner.
**[16:16] ---**
If you don't agree
**[16:18] ---**
I'll pulverize every one of you,
now that my hands are free.
**[16:34] ---**
Surely you don't think that
mere robbers can beat two ninja?
**[17:01] ---**
How come you're gritting
your teeth so hard?
**[17:06] ---**
Your veins are popping out
and you're sweating.
**[17:12] ---**
If you're free,
**[17:15] ---**
come over here.
**[17:18] ---**
Come on!
**[17:22] ---**
Their hands are still fused!
**[17:25] ---**
There's nothing to fear!
**[17:27] ---**
Get them!
**[17:30] ---**
He called our bluff!
**[17:31] ---**
Can't help it!
**[17:38] ---**
Why you...
**[17:40] ---**
Wha-?!
**[17:46] ---**
- Naruto!
- Right!
**[18:13] ---**
Oh no!
**[18:16] ---**
Look out, you two!
**[18:24] ---**
The treasure is mine!
**[18:37] ---**
We can stop at least one of his hands.
**[18:40] ---**
- Let's go!
- Right!
**[19:05] ---**
Oh no, you don't!
**[19:14] ---**
Fire Style!
**[19:15] ---**
Shadow Clone Jutsu!
**[19:17] ---**
What?! A seal?
**[19:20] ---**
Even if we can weave signs together,
we can't mold chakra.
**[19:26] ---**
Why you... Taking me for a fool!
**[19:28] ---**
But we do have a combination attack!
**[19:31] ---**
What?!
**[19:32] ---**
Pachinko Jutsu!
**[19:50] ---**
Well, I guess it can be
melted down and re-cast.
**[19:53] ---**
Just maybe.
**[19:55] ---**
Thank you, Sasuke!
**[19:58] ---**
Hey, I did my best too.
**[20:02] ---**
This is ridiculous!
**[20:04] ---**
How come you, of all people,
can't undo this, Kakashi Sensei?!
**[20:06] ---**
Remember, that boss said so too.
**[20:09] ---**
It'll crumble apart in
two or three days.
**[20:12] ---**
Like I can put up with him
for that long!
**[20:15] ---**
That's my line.
**[20:20] ---**
Uh-oh... I think I need to go.
**[20:23] ---**
Not again.
**[20:24] ---**
This time it's number two.
**[20:28] ---**
You've got to be kidding.
**[20:30] ---**
Don't you dare, Naruto!
**[20:32] ---**
Aw c'mon, we already peed together.
**[20:37] ---**
This is worse!
**[20:43] ---**
*"Those who abandon their friends
are worse than scum."*
**[20:48] ---**
*These three overcome it so easily.*
**[22:37] ---**
Our mission is to defeat the bandits
who are after the village crops,
**[22:41] ---**
and rescue the captive hostage.
**[22:43] ---**
Their hideout is located in
a natural fortification, plus they have 3 forts.
**[22:48] ---**
But the trickiest of all is
their leader Baji's intellect.
**[22:53] ---**
Well, we have no choice but to do it.
**[22:56] ---**
Next time on Naruto Shippuden:
**[22:59] ---**
"Team 10's Teamwork"
**[23:01] ---**
I'm counting on you guys.
**[23:05] ---**
Tune in again!
