**[00:05] ---**
Ino, Choji...
**[00:08] ---**
Let's get this over with
and go home.
**[00:16] ---**
We know. Right, Choji?
**[00:19] ---**
Huh?
**[00:20] ---**
Choji?!
**[00:25] ---**
- That idiot!
*- Cripes...*
**[00:27] ---**
- Ino, go with formation-
*- I know!*
**[00:33] ---**
Shadow Strangle Jutsu!
**[00:42] ---**
*I'm counting on you, Ino.*
**[00:44] ---**
*With the chakra I have now,
this is my limit.*
**[00:47] ---**
Here I go!
**[00:49] ---**
Mind Transfer Jutsu!
**[00:56] ---**
Looks like it worked.
**[01:00] ---**
I figured as much.
**[01:02] ---**
Super Expansion Jutsu!
**[01:11] ---**
Hey Choji!
**[01:12] ---**
How could you slack off?!
**[01:14] ---**
This hunt was your idea
in the first place!
**[01:17] ---**
Food is the foundation of survival.
**[01:19] ---**
The village is in the midst of a crisis,
so we have to make sure we eat.
**[01:22] ---**
Well, you're the only one
taking a break here!
**[01:25] ---**
What if they got away?
**[01:28] ---**
Huh?
**[01:29] ---**
Well, I knew Shikamaru
could do this.
**[01:35] ---**
*Come to think of it...*
**[01:37] ---**
*She also knew what to do
before I said anything.*
**[03:12] ---**
*- Leaf's History -
Team 10's Teamwork*
**[03:22] ---**
They're demons.
**[03:23] ---**
They appear every year
during the harvest.
**[03:27] ---**
So this year, we were prepared
to die fighting them off.
**[03:32] ---**
But that sly Baji...
**[03:35] ---**
I don't know if he knew my plan or not,
but he kidnapped my granddaughter.
**[03:41] ---**
This Baji is...
**[03:43] ---**
He's the boss of the bandits
who steal our crops.
**[03:48] ---**
Please... Please...save our village and
my granddaughter from those bandits!
**[03:56] ---**
And you are?
**[03:58] ---**
This is Tofu, a former member
of the bandits.
**[04:01] ---**
An ex-bandit?
**[04:03] ---**
I don't blame you
for mistrusting me.
**[04:05] ---**
But I couldn't go along with
their ways anymore.
**[04:10] ---**
Tofu here told me of
my granddaughter's abduction.
**[04:15] ---**
As an ex-bandit,
he can be an invaluable guide.
**[04:20] ---**
That's true.
**[04:22] ---**
Please allow me to help.
**[04:27] ---**
Well then,
let's get ready to move.
**[04:29] ---**
- Yes, sir.
- Right!
**[04:31] ---**
Shikamaru, got a minute?
**[04:37] ---**
The hideout is
a natural fortification
**[04:41] ---**
deep inside a cavern that
fans out like an ant's nest.
**[04:43] ---**
There is only one route to it.
**[04:46] ---**
But along this route are three forts
that each serve as a checking station.
**[04:52] ---**
But the trickiest part is Baji's intelligence.
It's why he's so feared.
**[05:00] ---**
The main purpose of this mission
is to rescue the hostage.
**[05:03] ---**
And that will involve
a confrontation with the bandits.
**[05:07] ---**
Shikamaru, what do you think?
**[05:10] ---**
Well...
**[05:13] ---**
He may still be a genin,
but he's a skilled tactician.
**[05:17] ---**
There may only be one route,
but we're not moving a large force.
**[05:21] ---**
Since it's just us,
maybe we can bypass the forts.
**[05:27] ---**
Having said that,
**[05:29] ---**
I'm sure they've set up their defenses
and laid considerable traps.
**[05:35] ---**
But it's our best chance to get out
without fighting the enemy
**[05:39] ---**
after we make the rescue.
**[05:41] ---**
At the very least, we need to confirm
that there's a safe passage.
**[05:44] ---**
I see.
**[05:46] ---**
So the first thing to do is to find
a way for a small team to infiltrate.
**[05:51] ---**
All right! Let's go!
**[05:53] ---**
We genin are staying behind.
**[05:54] ---**
What?!
**[05:56] ---**
Like I just said, the enemy knows
every detour already.
**[06:01] ---**
The only ones who are capable
of going undetected
**[06:04] ---**
are Kakashi Sensei and Asuma.
**[06:08] ---**
It's best to let them handle this.
**[06:11] ---**
That's my opinion.
**[06:13] ---**
He's right.
There's no other way, Kakashi.
**[06:17] ---**
Yes.
**[06:18] ---**
Don't be so upset, Naruto.
**[06:21] ---**
Take care of things here, Shikamaru.
**[06:24] ---**
I guess I'll have to.
**[06:30] ---**
As you heard,
please wait here for a while.
**[06:41] ---**
Huh?
**[06:42] ---**
Hey, where's Tofu?
**[06:44] ---**
Nature called.
**[06:48] ---**
What's the big idea?!
**[06:50] ---**
What was that shout?!
**[06:53] ---**
Hey, look over there.
**[06:55] ---**
Tofu!
**[06:58] ---**
He's been captured?!
But how?
**[07:00] ---**
Jeez...
**[07:01] ---**
What'll we do?!
**[07:04] ---**
Hey! Don't just sit there!
**[07:17] ---**
The enemy is a gang of bandits
with scores of men.
**[07:20] ---**
They have a hostage
and three forts.
**[07:23] ---**
And beyond that,
the inner fortress.
**[07:29] ---**
It'll be a pain,
but I guess we'll do it ourselves.
**[07:39] ---**
Boss Baji!
**[07:41] ---**
I brought the deserter!
**[07:43] ---**
Good. You can go now.
**[07:45] ---**
Yes sir!
**[07:51] ---**
Oww...
**[07:53] ---**
Welcome.
**[07:55] ---**
Cripes...
Train your guys properly!
**[07:59] ---**
Remember,
I'm a valuable informant.
**[08:02] ---**
Sorry.
**[08:03] ---**
They're trained to be suspicious
even if the password is correct.
**[08:08] ---**
Well, you always take precautions.
**[08:12] ---**
So you brought me information?
**[08:16] ---**
The village hired ninja, after all.
**[08:19] ---**
And? How strong are they?
**[08:21] ---**
Two jonin and six genin.
**[08:24] ---**
Two small teams made up
mostly of genin?
**[08:27] ---**
Once we get rid of the jonin,
they won't be a problem at all.
**[08:30] ---**
Yeah. And the two jonin aren't
with them right now.
**[08:34] ---**
Really. Why's that?
**[08:36] ---**
They're looking for a way to get here
without passing through the forts.
**[08:41] ---**
That's what I'd do too.
**[08:44] ---**
But if they don't anticipate traps
along the way, it'll be a mission of death.
**[08:50] ---**
One of them saw that far ahead.
**[08:54] ---**
He's a genin named Shikamaru.
He had that figured out already.
**[09:01] ---**
So a two-man cell
made up of jonin
**[09:04] ---**
bypasses our forts and
are on the alert for traps.
**[09:09] ---**
As if a simple strategy like
that will work against me.
**[09:13] ---**
Boss!
**[09:16] ---**
B-Boss! It's a ninja!
**[09:19] ---**
They managed to get through
our three forts!
**[09:22] ---**
W-What?!
**[09:28] ---**
Why was there no word
from the forts?!
**[09:30] ---**
They just suddenly appeared.
**[09:33] ---**
I don't know what's going on.
**[09:34] ---**
Those three forts are there to
prevent just this sort of thing!
**[09:38] ---**
It's impossible!
**[09:40] ---**
You! Are you a double agent?!
**[09:43] ---**
Don't tell me you're in cahoots with
the men at the forts and let these ninja...
**[09:45] ---**
N-No way!
**[09:47] ---**
I'm serious.
You've got to believe me!
**[09:48] ---**
Talk is cheap.
**[09:50] ---**
I-I know!
**[09:52] ---**
Look, they think I've been captured!
**[09:55] ---**
If you use me for
a hostage exchange,
**[09:57] ---**
I'll be able to stall them and
send you information!
**[10:06] ---**
Keeping you here
doesn't do any good.
**[10:10] ---**
But if I use you for a hostage exchange,
I'll be able to crush their leader.
**[10:16] ---**
The more cards to play, the better.
**[10:20] ---**
All right!
Let's pulverize them all!
**[10:23] ---**
- Slow down, Naruto.
- Huh?
**[10:25] ---**
Don't forget that there's a hostage.
**[10:28] ---**
Bringing down their hide-out
might not be that difficult,
**[10:30] ---**
but we've got to find
the village headman's granddaughter first.
**[10:35] ---**
O-Oh right.
**[10:37] ---**
But how?
**[10:39] ---**
We'll take advantage
of their next move.
**[10:41] ---**
Next move?
**[10:43] ---**
Which is a hostage exchange.
**[10:48] ---**
That's plausible if
they don't want a confrontation.
**[10:51] ---**
A hostage exchange?
**[10:53] ---**
You mean one of us has
to become a hostage?
**[11:02] ---**
Shikamaru!
**[11:04] ---**
Come on out.
I want to talk to you!
**[11:07] ---**
If you want to save him,
how about you take his place?
**[11:15] ---**
Just as I expected.
**[11:18] ---**
What's your answer, Shikamaru?!
**[11:23] ---**
Okay. Fine!
**[11:27] ---**
*He answered my question.*
**[11:30] ---**
So far, it's going as I expected.
**[11:35] ---**
*What the-? My voice is gone?!*
**[11:39] ---**
*My Hidden Jutsu: Muting Jutsu.*
**[11:42] ---**
*If you can't speak, you can't convey
any strategy you come up with.*
**[11:53] ---**
*I just have to have faith.*
**[11:55] ---**
What is he thinking?
**[11:57] ---**
That idiot.
**[11:59] ---**
Hey! Don't go off
on your own.
**[12:00] ---**
Listen...
**[12:01] ---**
Shikamaru would never
take action without a plan.
**[12:05] ---**
He's right.
**[12:06] ---**
Shikamaru said to take advantage
of this hostage exchange.
**[12:11] ---**
*But what did he mean by that?*
**[12:40] ---**
I'm sorry for the trouble I caused.
**[12:42] ---**
You don't have to pretend.
**[12:44] ---**
Huh?
**[12:46] ---**
We were aware that you were a spy.
**[12:48] ---**
A long time ago.
**[12:51] ---**
If...If that's the case, why?
**[12:56] ---**
Did you come to save me?
**[13:00] ---**
How did you bypass the forts?
**[13:03] ---**
Oh right,
you're still under my jutsu.
**[13:07] ---**
Release!
**[13:10] ---**
It's going to be all right now.
**[13:12] ---**
I asked how you bypassed the forts!
**[13:15] ---**
That was easy.
**[13:18] ---**
We were suspicious
of Tofu all along.
**[13:22] ---**
So we secretly placed
a mini-wireless on him.
**[13:27] ---**
What?
**[13:29] ---**
And as expected,
he said the password.
**[13:35] ---**
*The lilies on the mountain pass
shine at night.*
**[13:44] ---**
But I've never trusted passwords.
**[13:48] ---**
And those guys at the forts
had strict orders.
**[13:51] ---**
But it seems they're not
as suspicious as you are.
**[13:56] ---**
We told them,
**[13:58] ---**
"A spy who knows the password
should have come through before us."
**[14:01] ---**
"We're pursuing him."
**[14:03] ---**
And they let us pass.
**[14:05] ---**
W-What?
**[14:09] ---**
It was a childish prank,
but it worked nicely.
**[14:16] ---**
You're no child,
I'll grant you that.
**[14:20] ---**
Still, even if you're a smart little tactician,
you're just a prisoner right now.
**[14:25] ---**
And I have my own strategy
to wipe out your genin pals.
**[14:31] ---**
Don't be afraid.
**[14:33] ---**
My friends will be here
soon to save us.
**[14:36] ---**
Don't try to be brave.
**[14:37] ---**
Ninjutsu may be powerful,
**[14:39] ---**
but there's no way to destroy this place
without harming the hostage.
**[14:45] ---**
That's the reason for
having a hostage.
**[14:47] ---**
Wait!
**[14:49] ---**
If you knew Tofu was my spy, why did you
agree to the hostage exchange?!
**[14:54] ---**
Who knows?
**[15:00] ---**
Fire Style! Fire Ball Jutsu!
**[15:03] ---**
An assault?
**[15:05] ---**
The loss of their leader throws
the genin into a panic
**[15:07] ---**
and they attack the castle,
regardless of the hostages.
**[15:10] ---**
Is that the diversionary tactic?
**[15:13] ---**
But as long as there are hostages involved,
a full-on attack is impossible.
**[15:17] ---**
And the other genin have
no jutsu to locate this spot.
**[15:22] ---**
I hold the trump card.
There's no way you can win.
**[15:29] ---**
Calm down!
**[15:30] ---**
The boss planned for times like this!
**[15:34] ---**
Right! This place is
a natural fortification!
**[15:36] ---**
A large force cannot penetrate us!
**[15:40] ---**
What is it?
**[15:43] ---**
Boss!
**[15:44] ---**
What is it?
**[15:46] ---**
New ones!
More ninja just appeared!
**[15:49] ---**
Quit panicking each time!
**[15:51] ---**
Didn't I give you contingent plans
to handle something like that?
**[15:55] ---**
B-But...
**[15:57] ---**
It's an army of a thousand.
**[15:59] ---**
A thousand?!
**[16:05] ---**
Shikamaru's not here.
**[16:07] ---**
So no one can stop me now!
**[16:09] ---**
Shikamaru and the hostage
are in the west tower.
**[16:12] ---**
So we make sure not to
destroy that one, right?
**[16:14] ---**
You got it, Choji!
**[16:16] ---**
Okay!
**[16:17] ---**
Expansion Jutsu!
**[16:19] ---**
Human Boulder!
**[16:22] ---**
Go Choji!
**[16:27] ---**
You seem to be enjoying this.
**[16:30] ---**
Huh? Do I?
**[16:33] ---**
Aren't you scared?
**[16:36] ---**
Nope.
**[16:37] ---**
Why?
**[16:39] ---**
Because I have faith in my friends.
**[16:41] ---**
Don't get cocky, kid!
**[16:44] ---**
I hold the trump card!
**[16:46] ---**
I can get away with the hostage
as my shield!
**[16:49] ---**
As long as I have
the headman's granddaughter,
**[16:52] ---**
I can negotiate my way out.
**[16:54] ---**
If I escape before the genin brats get here,
your plans won't mean a thing.
**[17:00] ---**
You would abandon your men?
**[17:02] ---**
My men? What a laugh!
**[17:05] ---**
As long as I get out alive,
I can form a new gang anytime.
**[17:15] ---**
- Shikamaru!
- Shikamaru!
**[17:18] ---**
- Shikamaru!
- Are you all right?
**[17:21] ---**
Yeah, but just barely.
**[17:23] ---**
That's our line!
**[17:25] ---**
You gave us such a scare!
**[17:26] ---**
H-How did you find this place?
**[17:30] ---**
The Yamanaka clan
of the Hidden Leaf
**[17:32] ---**
use a Hidden Jutsu called
Mind Transfer Jutsu.
**[17:37] ---**
I'm sure you've at least heard of it.
**[17:40] ---**
Mind Transfer Jutsu?!
**[17:43] ---**
Back there...
**[17:45] ---**
*Mind Transfer Jutsu!*
**[17:53] ---**
Through her Mind Transfer Jutsu,
Ino used my eyes to find this place.
**[17:58] ---**
*Release!*
**[18:01] ---**
*Everyone, I know where Shikamaru
and the hostage are being held!*
**[18:07] ---**
So now you know.
**[18:08] ---**
Don't be ridiculous!
**[18:10] ---**
What would you have done if
I hadn't figured out your plan?!
**[18:14] ---**
It was touch-and-go there for a while.
**[18:16] ---**
That's crazy!
**[18:18] ---**
Don't tell me you
knew from the start
**[18:19] ---**
that I would call for a hostage exchange
with you for Tofu?!
**[18:24] ---**
When a player loses a card,
he wants to replace it, right?
**[18:30] ---**
A card?
**[18:32] ---**
Well, in your case the card
was your three forts.
**[18:37] ---**
Once you lost them, you needed to
replace them as quickly as possible.
**[18:47] ---**
Through a hostage exchange.
**[18:49] ---**
A tactician like you analyzes
every bit of data,
**[18:54] ---**
and at the same time, places top priority
on his enemy's strategy.
**[18:58] ---**
I knew right off the bat
that you'd target me.
**[19:02] ---**
That's all.
**[19:07] ---**
Amazing. Simply amazing.
**[19:08] ---**
I lose.
I've got to hand it to you.
**[19:13] ---**
I'm not amazing.
**[19:15] ---**
What's amazing are my friends
who believe in me.
**[19:20] ---**
Shut up!
**[19:23] ---**
A Paper Bomb!
**[19:24] ---**
Just try and make a move!
**[19:26] ---**
I'll blow you all up!
**[19:29] ---**
Did you hear?
If you make a move...
**[19:33] ---**
My Shadow Possession Jutsu worked.
**[19:39] ---**
My my... This year's rookies
are quite talented.
**[19:43] ---**
We heard it all, Shikamaru.
**[19:44] ---**
That was quite a risk you took taking action
without relaying your strategy to the others.
**[19:50] ---**
Well, it ended successfully.
So job well done, Shikamaru.
**[19:55] ---**
It wasn't a gamble.
**[19:57] ---**
Besides I just watched my friends work
and had faith in them. That's all.
**[20:04] ---**
Even without words,
I knew these guys would understand.
**[20:12] ---**
*When I think about it, Team 10 always
had each other's backs during battle.*
**[20:17] ---**
*No, it wasn't just Team 10.
Naruto, Lee, Kiba, all of us.*
**[20:24] ---**
*Our faith in our friends has spread past
our teams, and into the entire village.*
**[20:33] ---**
*Right, Asuma?*
**[20:38] ---**
Oh well. Shall we go back
and have some barbeque?
**[20:42] ---**
Yes!
**[20:44] ---**
Hey, wait up!
**[20:46] ---**
As punishment, you get to carry
the catch back to the village, Choji.
**[20:50] ---**
Oh come on.
Help me out here.
**[20:55] ---**
*People may call me a tactician,*
**[20:58] ---**
*but these guys know everything
there is about me.*
**[22:36] ---**
I have a mission for Team 7!
**[22:39] ---**
Then again, it appears things are not
going well between Naruto and Sasuke.
**[22:44] ---**
I'm embarrassed to say it,
but yes.
**[22:45] ---**
It cannot be helped.
**[22:47] ---**
You and Sasuke will handle
this mission.
**[22:50] ---**
What shall I do with
Naruto and Sakura?
**[22:52] ---**
Don't worry. I just happen to have
the perfect assignment for them.
**[22:56] ---**
Next time on Naruto Shippuden:
"Drive Towards Darkness"
**[23:01] ---**
This is also for the mission!
**[23:04] ---**
Tune in again!
