[00:19] ---
    There's no mistake.
[00:21] ---
    It's a hideout that
    Orochimaru once used.
[00:24] ---
    Leave it to Kabuto to
    take advantage of an old nest.
[00:31] ---
    Hold it. They're on our side.
[00:33] ---
    Captain Mitarashi...
[00:36] ---
    I'm here to relay an order
    from the village.
[00:38] ---
    Sai is to return home and
    you are to continue tracking Kabuto.
[00:43] ---
    We are here to assist you.
[00:45] ---
    Yamato rushed back
    in the midst of a mission.
[00:49] ---
    Did something happen?
[00:51] ---
    The Akatsuki attacked
    the Hidden Leaf Village.
[00:53] ---
    The town has been destroyed,
[00:55] ---
    scores of citizens have been injured
    and Lady Tsunade is in a coma.
[00:59] ---
    What?!
[01:01] ---
    As a result, Lord Danzo has
    taken over as the Sixth Hokage.
[01:06] ---
    I can't believe such a thing
    could happen so suddenly.
[01:08] ---
    I will give you a more detailed
    account later, Captain.
[01:12] ---
    Sai...
[01:14] ---
    I'm on my way.
[01:17] ---
    Sai and I spent a lot of time
    working together on this mission.

[01:20] ---
    But he remained aloof
    up until the end.

[01:24] ---
    Lord Danzo is the Hokage?
[01:28] ---
    The essence of a ninja is to
    operate behind the scenes.
[01:32] ---
    However, there are times when
    a man who works in the shadows
[01:35] ---
    must step out into the open.
[01:37] ---
    For me, that time is now.
[01:42] ---
    I hope I have
    your continued loyalty.
[01:47] ---
    - Yes sir!
    - Yes sir!
[03:22] ---
    The Sixth Hokage Danzo
    
    
    
[03:29] ---
    What'll I do?
[03:31] ---
    Huh?!
[03:33] ---
    Well, the Hidden Leaf Village
    has tons of pretty women.
[03:38] ---
    And what if all those women
    declared their love for me?
[03:42] ---
    I was wondering what I'd do.
[03:45] ---
    Oh yes, I see.
[03:47] ---
    Well, why don't you
    go out with them?
[03:50] ---
    With as many as you can
    get your hands on!
[03:51] ---
    But...when the time comes
    to leave the Hidden Leaf
[03:55] ---
    and they say they can't bear
    to part with me, what'll I do?
[04:02] ---
    I'd be so scared if they suggest
    something like a lover's suicide.
[04:05] ---
    So are you happy or scared?
    What are you trying to say?!
[04:11] ---
    We haven't even reached
    the Hidden Leaf Village yet.
[04:13] ---
    Don't get so carried away!
    It's creepy!
[04:15] ---
    But maybe some handsome guy
    with a super-good looking face
[04:19] ---
    might come on to you too.
[04:20] ---
    Why can't you just
    say handsome guy?
[04:22] ---
    Although a rich, tall, famous ninja
    in addition to being super-handsome
[04:28] ---
    wouldn't be farfetched.
[04:31] ---
    No, you're letting
    your imagination run wild.
[04:33] ---
    No way that would happen!
    Absolutely no way!
[04:37] ---
    I didn't ask...
[04:41] ---
    for your opinion!
[04:49] ---
    What would we do if that stone
    hits a boulder and it crumbles
[04:54] ---
    and the falling rocks hit
    another bigger boulder
[04:57] ---
    that causes an even bigger rockslide
    that falls right over
[05:00] ---
    the Hidden Leaf Village
    and destroys it?
[05:03] ---
    Who's over-imagining things now?!
    Idiot!
[05:10] ---
    N-No way...
[05:13] ---
    It can't be! I didn't mean to do this!
    I mean, how could a rock that size...
[05:17] ---
    K-Karui, what have you done?
[05:20] ---
    There's no way.
[05:22] ---
    Anyway, let's look for someone.
[05:24] ---
    Who are you three?!
[05:27] ---
    I'm Samui from the Hidden Cloud.
[05:29] ---
    I am a messenger for the Raikage,
    the leader of the Hidden Cloud.
[05:34] ---
    Lord Raikage?
[05:40] ---
    Please pardon our run-in earlier.
[05:42] ---
    We're all on edge lately.
[05:45] ---
    There weren't any guards
    from the Leaf around
[05:47] ---
    and finding the village
    in such a state...
[05:49] ---
    We were shocked and
    wondered what had happened.
[05:52] ---
    - It was the work of the Akatsuki.
    - Here's your stone
[05:54] ---
    - Precautionary measures
    - that destroyed the village.
[05:55] ---
    are being taken immediately
    and security will be tightened.
[05:57] ---
    - We would like an audience
    - That's got nothing to do with it!
[05:59] ---
    with your Hokage.
[06:01] ---
    I am here to deliver a letter
    from the Raikage to Lady Hokage.
[06:05] ---
    Actually...
[06:08] ---
    Is something the matter?
[06:10] ---
    Oww!
[06:12] ---
    Don't tell me
    this lump on my head...
[06:14] ---
    Enough!
[06:19] ---
    Talk about bad timing.
[06:23] ---
    A sealed tube never
    contains any good news.
[06:27] ---
    It's a letter calling for an emergency
    Five Kage Summit Conference.
[06:30] ---
    You see?
    A Five Kage Summit Conference?!
[06:36] ---
    Lady Hokage is in a coma?
[06:38] ---
    I am her aide, so I will accept
    the letter on her behalf.
[06:46] ---
    If it's uncertain when
    she will regain consciousness,
[06:49] ---
    the interim Hokage will do.
[06:51] ---
    Someone must read the letter
    and give me a reply!
[06:54] ---
    The Raikage cannot wait.
[06:57] ---
    But...
[07:03] ---
    That woman is
    no longer the Hokage.
[07:07] ---
    I am the new Sixth Hokage.
[07:11] ---
    I will look at the letter.
[07:14] ---
    Don't tell me that Danzo has...
[07:17] ---
    What is it?
[07:19] ---
    Doesn't Lord Raikage
    want a reply?
[07:23] ---
    OFFICIAL
    TO THE HOKAGE
    FROM THE RAIKAGE
[07:38] ---
    Sasuke...
    So it has come to this.
[07:45] ---
    And your reply?
[07:53] ---
    Ow! Hey!
[07:59] ---
    What's wrong, Kiba?
[08:01] ---
    Now stay calm and listen!
[08:04] ---
    Lady Tsunade has been
    relieved as the Hokage!
[08:06] ---
    - What?!
    -Huh?
[08:09] ---
    It seems someone named Danzo
    is the Sixth Hokage!
[08:12] ---
    I don't know too much,
[08:13] ---
    but apparently he's been
    active behind the scenes!
[08:15] ---
    Danzo?!
[08:16] ---
    Danzo is...
[08:18] ---
    I have a bad feeling about this.
[08:21] ---
    And that's not
    the only shocking thing!
[08:24] ---
    The Sixth Hokage declared
    Sasuke as a Rogue Ninja,
[08:26] ---
    and has given the approval
    to hunt him down!
[08:33] ---
    What the hell's going on?!
[08:35] ---
    Even I don't understand.
[08:37] ---
    They couldn't wait until
    Lady Tsunade recovered.
[08:40] ---
    It makes sense in a way.
[08:42] ---
    Kakashi Sensei...
[08:44] ---
    Sasuke is indeed a Rogue Ninja.
[08:46] ---
    Normally, he would have
    been eliminated long ago.
[08:48] ---
    It's only because of Lady Tsunade
    that he's been allowed to live.
[08:53] ---
    I'm going to see this Danzo!
[08:56] ---
    Wait, Sakura!
[08:57] ---
    Storming into his office
    will solve nothing.
[09:00] ---
    Lady Tsunade isn't even conscious yet!
    How could they do this to her?!
[09:03] ---
    And what about Sasuke?
[09:05] ---
    You can't expect me
    to keep quiet!
[09:08] ---
    I'm coming with you.
[09:10] ---
    Calm down, you two.
[09:12] ---
    At a time like this,
[09:14] ---
    staying calm is crucial or
    things won't work out.
[09:16] ---
    How can I stay calm?!
[09:18] ---
    I won't let them lay
    a hand on Sasuke!
[09:20] ---
    I said wait!
[09:22] ---
    Danzo has already figured out
    that this is how you'll react.
[09:26] ---
    So you'll go see him, then what?
[09:28] ---
    I won't do anything violent!
[09:30] ---
    I just want to talk to him and ask him
    to change his mind about Sasuke!
[09:33] ---
    I hardly think that he'll go along with
    whatever you have to say. Jeez!
[09:39] ---
    Danzo has been appointed
    by the Feudal Lord.
[09:41] ---
    While he has yet to win
    a vote of confidence from the jonin,
[09:43] ---
    he is the Hokage.
[09:45] ---
    If you make a wrong move,
    you'll be thrown into jail.
[09:48] ---
    That's fine with me!
[09:50] ---
    I'm going!
[09:52] ---
    Me too!
[09:53] ---
    H-Hey guys...
[09:55] ---
    Naruto, you possess
    the Nine-Tails.
[09:59] ---
    What about it?
[10:01] ---
    Danzo would like nothing better
    than to confine you in this village.
[10:07] ---
    Do you want to
    be locked up in jail?
[10:09] ---
    That's exactly what he wants.
[10:12] ---
    Then you won't be
    able to look for Sasuke.
[10:16] ---
    Don't make a scene right now.
[10:22] ---
    You wanted to see me?
[10:24] ---
    Keep an eye on Naruto.
[10:26] ---
    If you notice anything amiss,
    inform me immediately.
[10:31] ---
    Yes sir.
[10:35] ---
    Umm... May I ask you a question?
[10:40] ---
    What is it?
[10:41] ---
    What do you plan
    to do with Naruto?
[10:46] ---
    Do not worry.
[10:47] ---
    Naruto is the village hero
    right now.
[10:50] ---
    Everyone trusts him.
[10:53] ---
    Even more than they trust me,
    the Sixth Hokage.
[10:58] ---
    If I do anything to Naruto now,
[11:00] ---
    it will affect my appearance
    as the Hokage.
[11:03] ---
    This is a crucial time,
    right before the vote of confidence.
[11:07] ---
    Still, Naruto is a Jinchuriki.
[11:11] ---
    As the Hokage,
[11:12] ---
    I must keep the Jinchuriki
    under surveillance.
[11:16] ---
    I cannot be lax like Tsunade was.
[11:21] ---
    I understand.
[11:25] ---
    You're excused.
[11:35] ---
    Should I be relieved?
[11:37] ---
    Sai!
[11:39] ---
    We were just looking for you!
[11:41] ---
    We need to talk to you.
[11:44] ---
    What is it?
[11:47] ---
    Tell us what you
    know about Danzo.
[11:53] ---
    Sai!
[11:54] ---
    That's impossible.
[11:55] ---
    Why?!
[11:57] ---
    Don't tell me you're
    working for him again!
[12:00] ---
    No... It's nothing like that.
[12:02] ---
    It's not possible for me to
    say a word about Lord Danzo.
[12:08] ---
    Due to this.
[12:14] ---
    What the hell is that?
[12:16] ---
    Is it a Curse Mark?
[12:18] ---
    Yes, it's a Curse Mark
    placed by Lord Danzo.
[12:23] ---
    If I start to talk about Lord Danzo,
[12:25] ---
    my entire body will become numb
    and I won't be able to move or talk.
[12:31] ---
    This is true of all who
    belong to the Foundation.
[12:35] ---
    He's a cautious man.
[12:38] ---
    Lord Danzo and the Foundation
    engage in espionage.
[12:41] ---
    They've done a lot of dirty work
    behind the scenes
[12:44] ---
    in order to protect the village.
[12:48] ---
    This cannot be revealed.
[12:52] ---
    So even if one is captured,
    not a word will be uttered.
[12:56] ---
    But what a thing to do...
[12:59] ---
    Putting a Curse Mark on
    one's own subordinate?
[13:01] ---
    I can't accept that.
[13:03] ---
    It's what has protected
    Hidden Leaf Village
[13:05] ---
    from the bottom up.
[13:07] ---
    Their methods may have
    been unscrupulous,
[13:09] ---
    but their love for the village
    is no different from yours.
[13:13] ---
    Then why did he overturn
    Lady Tsunade's decision about Sasuke?
[13:18] ---
    Isn't he planning to dispatch
    Tracking Ninja to go after Sasuke?
[13:22] ---
    I-Is that so?
[13:23] ---
    I haven't heard anything
    regarding Sasuke-
[13:26] ---
    You can tell us all about
    this Sasuke fellow!
[13:30] ---
    You seem to be his friends!
[13:39] ---
    Shadow Clone Jutsu.
[13:40] ---
    Don't kill him!
[13:41] ---
    I know that!
[13:49] ---
    Sakura!
[13:54] ---
    Are you all right, Sakura?
[13:56] ---
    Judging from their headbands,
    they're ninja from the Hidden Cloud.
[14:00] ---
    Why would they come here?
[14:03] ---
    What the hell do you guys want?
[14:05] ---
    You were just
    talking about Sasuke!
[14:09] ---
    Tell us what you were saying!
[14:11] ---
    It's got nothing to do
    with you Cloud Ninja!
[14:15] ---
    It's got everything to do with us!
[14:16] ---
    Sasuke Uchiha of the Hidden Leaf
    attacked our village!
[14:21] ---
    Your Rogue Ninja
    abducted our master!
[14:26] ---
    We don't even know if our master
    is dead or alive, you idiots!
[14:29] ---
    Th-That's a lie!
[14:32] ---
    Why would Sasuke
    do such a thing?!
[14:34] ---
    Like we'd know what
    the Akatsuki's motives are!
[14:38] ---
    The Akatsuki?!
    What do you mean?
[14:41] ---
    Huh?! Don't kid around!
[14:43] ---
    Sasuke is a member
    of the Akatsuki!
[14:47] ---
    You guys let your
    Rogue Ninja roam free,
[14:49] ---
    so Lord Raikage ordered us
    to come here.
[14:52] ---
    And we've gotten your Hokage's
    permission to get rid of the Uchiha!
[14:56] ---
    Sasuke...
    abducted their master?

[15:01] ---
    We'll get our revenge!
[15:03] ---
    The Uchiha is ours!
[15:06] ---
    Sasuke...
[15:12] ---
    What's...happened to you?
[15:28] ---
    Hey, Sasuke.
[15:35] ---
    I suddenly sensed his chakra.
[15:37] ---
    What's going on?
[15:39] ---
    Aw man... Bad timing.
[15:42] ---
    How did you know where to find me?
[15:44] ---
    Don't underestimate me.
[15:46] ---
    I have considerable powers.
[15:49] ---
    So what do you
    want with me now?
[15:51] ---
    Taka left the Akatsuki.
    We're done with you.
[15:57] ---
    As it stands, you reneged
    on your promise to me.
[16:01] ---
    What are you talking about?
[16:03] ---
    I'm talking about hunting
    the Tailed Beast.
[16:05] ---
    We already caught the Eight-Tails
    and delivered it to you.
[16:09] ---
    That was just a substitution.
[16:11] ---
    In other words, you guys failed.
[16:15] ---
    The Eight-Tails pulled
    a fast one on you.
[16:19] ---
    I saw it all with my Sharingan.
[16:21] ---
    There's no way he had
    an opportunity to make a clone.

[16:28] ---
    The only part of his body
    that I cut off!

[16:31] ---
    Frankly,
    I'm disappointed in you all.
[16:34] ---
    So what're you going to do?
[16:37] ---
    It's none of our business now.
[16:39] ---
    Wrong.
[16:40] ---
    You will finish whatever work you started
    as members of the Akatsuki.
[16:44] ---
    Having said that,
    you can forget about the Eight-Tails.
[16:47] ---
    I've decided to give you
    a different task.
[16:50] ---
    And if I refuse?
[16:54] ---
    We'll fight it out right here.
[16:57] ---
    And you won't be able to
    go to Hidden Leaf Village.
[17:00] ---
    We'll force our way through!
[17:09] ---
    It's a little too late to
    go to the Hidden Leaf.
[17:14] ---
    I went right through him.
[17:16] ---
    Just like before.
    Is this his power?

[17:19] ---
    Your purpose is fruitless.
    Too bad.
[17:24] ---
    What do you mean?
[17:26] ---
    The Village Hidden in
    the Leaves is no more.
[17:32] ---
    What are you saying?!
[17:35] ---
    I'll explain it to you.
[17:40] ---
    Who is he?!
[17:41] ---
    Relax. He's my partner.
[17:45] ---
    So, who is the new Hokage?
[17:48] ---
    Someone named Danzo.
[17:50] ---
    It's pretty much
    what we expected.
[17:53] ---
    Danzo...is the Hokage?
[17:56] ---
    Yes, one of the high-ranking elders
    of the Hidden Leaf
[17:59] ---
    who drove your elder brother
    into a corner.
[18:02] ---
    He is the new Hokage.
[18:05] ---
    What the hell happened in
    the Hidden Leaf Village?!
[18:08] ---
    My subordinate, Pain,
    destroyed the Hidden Leaf.
[18:12] ---
    And because both you and Pain
    were a bit too overbearing,
[18:15] ---
    it seems the five Kage
    are going to take action.
[18:18] ---
    The five Kage?
[18:21] ---
    There will be
    a Five Kage Summit Conference.
[18:23] ---
    I'll explain from here.
[18:28] ---
    You will tell us everything
    you know about Sasuke.
[18:32] ---
    Of course,
    his ninjutsu style and powers,
[18:35] ---
    but also any data
    you have gathered about
[18:37] ---
    the Akatsuki and Sasuke's partners,
    as well as their past actions.
[18:42] ---
    No way! It's a lie!
[18:44] ---
    Sasuke wouldn't join
    the Akatsuki!
[18:46] ---
    Are you sure about this?
[18:49] ---
    Yes! The Uchiha family crest
    was verified!
[18:51] ---
    And his facial composite
    matched the list.
[18:54] ---
    That's... That's not poss...
[19:01] ---
    Why are you crying?!
    We're the ones who want to cry!
[19:05] ---
    Your tears won't bring back
    Lord Killer Bee or Lady Yugito!
[19:09] ---
    If you have time to cry,
    then start talking about Sasuke!
[19:13] ---
    Wait, guys.
[19:15] ---
    Huh?!
[19:16] ---
    When the authorization to
    terminate Sasuke was given,
[19:20] ---
    all Hidden Leaf data relating to him
    should have been passed on to you.
[19:25] ---
    It's not necessary to
    press these two any further.
[19:28] ---
    Oh, you're right!
[19:29] ---
    Our captain is now waiting for it.
[19:33] ---
    We were just trying to get whatever
    other information was available!
[19:38] ---
    You can't expect us to stay still!
[19:40] ---
    We don't even know
    how our master's doing!
[19:47] ---
    I will avenge Pervy Sage!
[19:51] ---
    I can't just sit around
    doing nothing!

[19:56] ---
    You're not involved in this,
    so you wouldn't understand how we feel!
[20:01] ---
    Is your master a Jinchuriki?
[20:05] ---
    How did you know?
[20:06] ---
    I'm a Jinchuriki too.
[20:09] ---
    The Akatsuki is after the Jinchuriki.
[20:11] ---
    So actually, I am involved.
[20:14] ---
    The Akatsuki will always
    capture a Jinchuriki alive.
[20:17] ---
    That means your master
    may not be dead.
[20:22] ---
    Are you serious?!
[20:23] ---
    Never mind Sasuke.
    You need to save your master first.
[20:27] ---
    Are you really sure about this?!
[20:28] ---
    Really, really sure?
[20:30] ---
    Didn't I tell you?!
[20:32] ---
    Our master wouldn't die so easily!
[20:35] ---
    I'll help you rescue your master,
[20:37] ---
    and I'll give you whatever information
    we have on the Akatsuki.
[20:41] ---
    Hey blondie,
    you're quick to understand!
[20:44] ---
    Come with us and
    tell us about Sasuke!
[20:49] ---
    Naruto...
[20:52] ---
    Leave it to me, Sakura.
[20:57] ---
    What's your name?
[21:01] ---
    Naruto Uzumaki.
[22:38] ---
    I can't do it.
    
    
[22:39] ---
    I can't sell Sasuke out.
    
    
[22:41] ---
    Quit playing around!
    
    
[22:43] ---
    You can't take it back now,
    after all that's been done.
    
    
[22:44] ---
    I know I'm being selfish.
    
    
[22:46] ---
    But at this rate, the vicious cycle of
    an eye for an eye will start all over again!
    
    
[22:50] ---
    Your Sasuke is the one
    who started it all!
    
    
[22:53] ---
    So where do you suggest
    we take our hatred?
    
    
[22:57] ---
    Next time on Naruto Shippuden:
    "Five Kage Summit's Eve"
    
    
    
[23:01] ---
    Naruto, why go this far for him?
    
    
    
[23:04] ---
    Tune in again!
