[00:10] ---
    You actually tailed Samui.
    You guys are pretty good.
[00:14] ---
    Y-You...
[00:15] ---
    You're Naruto!
[00:17] ---
    You tailed us! What's the big idea?!
[00:20] ---
    Boss, the one on the right...
    is Kakashi Hatake.
[00:26] ---
    I know that!
[00:28] ---
    Did the Hokage send you,
    Kakashi Hatake?
[00:32] ---
    No, I came to ask you personally
[00:36] ---
    about a request by Naruto Uzumaki
    of the Hidden Leaf.
[00:40] ---
    Naruto Uzumaki?
[00:42] ---
    If you could hear him out
    for just a while.
[00:47] ---
    Isn't this a bit rude?
[00:49] ---
    Stopping us en route to the summit
    without any prior notice.
[00:53] ---
    I am fully aware of that.
[00:57] ---
    No matter.
[00:59] ---
    You there, boy! Speak!
[01:05] ---
    Sasuke...
[01:07] ---
    I want you to cancel
    the disposal of Sasuke Uchiha!
[01:12] ---
    H-Hey, this isn't really the place...
[01:15] ---
    Are you still talking about that?!
[01:16] ---
    You sure got guts.
[01:17] ---
    What are you saying?
[01:19] ---
    I know it sounds ridiculous!
[01:22] ---
    But this is the only way
    I know how to say it!
[01:26] ---
    Sasuke is my friend!
[01:28] ---
    My friend's gonna get killed.
[01:30] ---
    I can't just stand by and
    let it happen!
[01:34] ---
    On top of that,
    I don't want Sasuke to be
[01:36] ---
    the cause of the Leaf and
    Cloud Villages killing each other.
[01:39] ---
    I don't want my friends,
    or the Cloud to fight for revenge!
[02:07] ---
    I'm begging you!
[02:09] ---
    I don't want us killing each other
    out of vengeance anymore!
[02:22] ---
    All Sasuke ever thought
    about was revenge!
[02:27] ---
    He became obsessed with it
    and that changed him.
[02:33] ---
    Vengeance makes you go mad.
[02:37] ---
    It turns you into someone
    you don't recognize anymore.
[02:41] ---
    I don't want anyone else
    to become like Sasuke!
[02:45] ---
    I don't want the Leaf and Cloud Villages
    to destroy each other!
[02:51] ---
    That's why...
[03:14] ---
    I have work to do,
    so I'm going on ahead.
[03:18] ---
    Please report to Kakashi Sensei
    about the mission.
[03:21] ---
    Sure! You can count on me.
[03:24] ---
    See you.
[03:32] ---
    Say Naruto...
[03:37] ---
    You like Sakura, don't you?
[03:40] ---
    What?!
[03:41] ---
    It was in a book.
[03:43] ---
    When you're with someone you like,
    you always smile.
[03:47] ---
    You're like that.
[03:49] ---
    Did you tell her how you feel?
[04:06] ---
    How could I?
[04:10] ---
    I'm a guy who couldn't even
    keep my promise to her.
[04:17] ---
    Sai... Stay out of this.
[04:23] ---
    No. I can't just sit still either, Naruto.
[04:35] ---
    We will dispose of Sasuke!
[04:39] ---
    After that, you can stop the cycle.
[04:43] ---
    What a fool.
[04:44] ---
    We are in a hurry.
    We've let you have your say.
[04:50] ---
    Lord Raikage...
[04:53] ---
    The incident in which you tried
    to obtain the Hyuga Byakugan
[04:56] ---
    is still unresolved on our side.
[05:00] ---
    The Hidden Leaf swallowed
    tears of blood and
[05:03] ---
    avoided fighting the Cloud,
    who fueled the fires of war.
[05:07] ---
    It's thanks to those noble sacrifices
    that your people still exist.
[05:11] ---
    Please try not to forget that.
[05:14] ---
    Right here and now,
    this young ninja,
[05:17] ---
    no matter how awkwardly,
    is bowing his head in his affection
[05:20] ---
    for the Cloud and Leaf,
    village and nation.
[05:24] ---
    Lord Raikage...
[05:25] ---
    As one of the five Kage,
    what do you think of this?
[05:36] ---
    A ninja does not bow
    his head so easily!
[05:38] ---
    A ninja values action and strength!
[05:42] ---
    Concessions are forbidden
    in agreements made between ninja.
[05:46] ---
    The history of man is a history of war.
[05:49] ---
    Since the three Great Ninja Wars
[05:51] ---
    every nation, and every land
    has tried to obtain powerful ninjutsu.
[05:56] ---
    Those without power are crushed.
[05:59] ---
    That is the truth of the ninja world.
[06:02] ---
    The Akatsuki will be branded
    as wanted fugitives.
[06:05] ---
    Then, not only I,
[06:07] ---
    but the whole world
    will hunt Sasuke down.
[06:10] ---
    Yet you bow your head
    for this criminal
[06:12] ---
    and plead for mercy for your friend.
[06:15] ---
    In the ninja world,
    that is not friendship!
[06:20] ---
    Boy from the Hidden Leaf,
    think hard on what you must do!
[06:24] ---
    The ninja world does not indulge fools!
[06:30] ---
    Let's go!
[06:42] ---
    Naruto...
[06:44] ---
    Enough already.
[06:45] ---
    Raise your head.
[07:40] ---
    We have been waiting for you.
[07:43] ---
    He's the one.
    The old one in the middle.
[07:50] ---
    So that's...Danzo!
[07:58] ---
    SAMURAI
[08:03] ---
    Please remove your Kage hats.
[08:11] ---
    LIGHTNING
    
    
[08:12] ---
    In response to Lord Raikage's request,
[08:14] ---

    In response to Lord Raikage's request,
[08:16] ---
    the five Kage have assembled here.
[08:17] ---
    EARTH
    
    
    the five Kage have assembled here.
[08:18] ---
    the five Kage have assembled here.

[08:27] ---
    I am Mifune, your moderator.
[08:31] ---
    The Five Kage Summit Conference
    is called into order.
[10:08] ---
    Naruto's Plea
    
    
[10:30] ---
    I am Mifune, your moderator.
[10:34] ---
    The Five Kage Summit Conference
    is called into order.
[10:38] ---
    I shall speak first. Hear me.
[10:42] ---
    There's such a difference
    in Kage these days.
[10:46] ---
    To be a Kage at your age
[10:47] ---
    is quite an accomplishment,
    Lord Kazekage.
[10:52] ---
    It seems your father trained you
    extremely well,
[10:56] ---
    except in the area of proper etiquette.
[11:01] ---
    You're probably right.
[11:03] ---
    It is the reason why
    I can be here as Kagekaze.
[11:07] ---
    You certainly are cocky.
[11:10] ---
    Lord Tsuchikage,
    there's no need to make fun of him.
[11:14] ---
    Continue, Lord Kazekage.
[11:16] ---
    I am a former Jinchuriki.
[11:19] ---
    I was captured by the Akatsuki,
[11:21] ---
    - they took my Tailed Beast
    -The nerve of that Tsuchikage!
[11:23] ---
    - and nearly killed me.
    -Quiet!
[11:26] ---
    So I consider the Akatsuki
    extremely dangerous.
[11:32] ---
    I sought the cooperation of
    the five Kage many times,
[11:35] ---
    but was ignored.
[11:37] ---
    Except by the previous Hokage.
[11:40] ---
    At a time when various lands
    have had their Jinchuriki stolen
[11:44] ---
    the response by this group
    has been far too slow!
[11:48] ---
    How can the Hidden Villages of
    the Five Great Nations serve
[11:51] ---
    as an example when they allow
    their Jinchuriki to be taken?
[11:54] ---
    It is an embarrassment!
[11:57] ---
    It is common sense to resolve this
    in utmost secrecy.
[12:00] ---
    Seeking the help of other lands
    just because of that is nonsense!
[12:05] ---
    Saving face... Prestige...
[12:08] ---
    Such old-fashioned beliefs.
[12:12] ---
    Such a brat.
[12:14] ---
    Old-fashioned beliefs aside...
[12:17] ---
    I will acknowledge that as
    the Mizukage,
[12:19] ---
    I have delayed action.
[12:22] ---
    However, having our Tailed Beast
    stolen is no cause for immediate fear.
[12:28] ---
    Controlling a Tailed Beast requires
    skill, knowledge and time.
[12:34] ---
    The Jinchuriki and the Tailed Beast
    must mature together
[12:37] ---
    and adapt to each other.
[12:39] ---
    And still, controlling
    the Tailed Beast is difficult.
[12:42] ---
    It is not a simple task.
[12:44] ---
    Isn't that so, Lord Kazekage?
[12:49] ---
    The only ones who were capable
    of controlling a Tailed Beast were
[12:53] ---
    Madara Uchiha and
    the First Hokage, Senju Hashirama.
[12:56] ---
    Also Fourth Mizukage Yagura,
[12:59] ---
    and Lord Raikage's younger brother,
    Killer Bee.
[13:04] ---
    However...
[13:05] ---
    - Chojuro!
    - Right!
[13:08] ---
    Enough...
[13:10] ---
    of this!
[13:37] ---
    This is a place of discussion.
[13:39] ---
    Please refrain from disruptive actions.
[13:44] ---
    Stand down, Foo, Torune.
[13:48] ---
    You too, Kankuro, Temari.
[13:52] ---
    Ao, Chojuro. I'm fine.
[13:55] ---
    Yes, ma'am.
[14:14] ---
    Let us continue our discussion.
[14:16] ---
    The Hidden Leaf, Rock, Sand and Mist...
[14:20] ---
    Rogue Ninja from your villages
    make up the Akatsuki!
[14:25] ---
    And that is not all!
[14:27] ---
    From our investigations,
    we know that among you,
[14:30] ---
    including your previous Kage,
    there are those who used the Akatsuki!
[14:34] ---
    Used them?!
[14:36] ---
    I do not trust you!
[14:39] ---
    I had no intention of even
    discussing this with you.
[14:42] ---
    But the reason I convened this summit
[14:45] ---
    is to question your loyalty!
[14:49] ---
    What do you mean, "used" the Akatsuki?
[14:52] ---
    You are the Kazekage,
    yet you have not been informed?
[14:56] ---
    Ask the elders back home!
[14:58] ---
    You used the Akatsuki in the past war!
[15:05] ---
    The Great Nations are heading
    towards uniform stability.
[15:08] ---
    They are moving from military expansion
    to military disarmament.
[15:12] ---
    As fear and the threat of war
    diminishes between nations,
[15:16] ---
    Hidden Villages, which are
    the source of its military strength,
[15:19] ---
    become costly hindrances.
[15:23] ---
    And yet, carelessly downsizing
    the villages poses a risk.
[15:29] ---
    What if war suddenly breaks out?
[15:31] ---
    It would be a problem to
    depend on ninja
[15:33] ---
    who have no experience in war.
[15:36] ---
    It would mean certain defeat!
[15:38] ---
    And one way to reduce that risk is
    mercenary soldiers.
[15:45] ---
    Namely, the Akatsuki?
[16:02] ---
    It takes effort and money to train
    skilled ninja from your own village.
[16:08] ---
    But the Akatsuki,
    which makes war its livelihood,
[16:10] ---
    is made up of experienced professionals.
[16:14] ---
    Furthermore, they can be hired
    for cheap.
[16:18] ---
    Best of all,
    they return exceptional results.
[16:23] ---
    Get serious, Tsuchikage!
[16:27] ---
    The Sand used the Akatsuki
    to destroy the Hidden Leaf.
[16:32] ---
    I'm speaking of Orochimaru!
[16:34] ---
    It is not clear if he had broken away
    from the Akatsuki or not.
[16:38] ---
    But as a result, your father,
    the Fourth Kazekage,
[16:41] ---
    and the Third Hokage Hiruzen, died.
[16:46] ---
    And frankly, it's hard not to
    rule out the idea
[16:49] ---
    that this was someone's scheme.
[16:55] ---
    The old fox.
[16:58] ---
    The most suspicious is the Hidden Mist!
[17:02] ---
    You Mist do not conduct diplomacy.
[17:04] ---
    There are even rumors that
    the Akatsuki originated there!
[17:14] ---
    Since we have come this far
    I will speak honestly.
[17:18] ---
    Is Lady Fifth going to reveal...
[17:21] ---
    There were suspicions that
[17:24] ---
    someone was manipulating Yagura,
    our Fourth Mizukage.
[17:30] ---
    And there was a possibility that
    it was the Akatsuki.
[17:34] ---
    No one wanted this to
    get blown out of proportion.
[17:40] ---
    Each and every one of you...
[17:42] ---
    Hold your tongue, Raikage!
[17:44] ---
    Ultimately, it is because your village
    disregarded the disarmament efforts
[17:49] ---
    and sought powerful ninjutsu.
[17:53] ---
    We had no choice but to counter
    by hiring the Akatsuki!
[17:58] ---
    What?!
[18:00] ---
    Before we start arguing
    about the situation,
[18:03] ---
    there is a statement
    I have been waiting to make.
[18:07] ---
    What is it?
[18:09] ---
    The leader of the Akatsuki is...
[18:13] ---
    probably Madara Uchiha.
[18:28] ---
    Are you sure of that?
[18:30] ---
    Hasn't he been dead for several decades?
[18:35] ---
    He is right.
[18:37] ---
    He died long ago.
[18:40] ---
    I do not know the details.
[18:43] ---
    But the information is quite reliable.
[18:46] ---
    Are you saying he is immortal?!
[18:49] ---
    Perhaps.
[18:51] ---
    To think...that he was really a monster.
[19:03] ---
    I want to speak on behalf
    of the neutral nations.
[19:08] ---
    The leader of the Akatsuki was
    able to read the times well.
[19:12] ---
    Despite stabilization,
    nations had private suspicions
[19:15] ---
    and the Akatsuki took advantage
    of that weakness to amass its power.
[19:21] ---
    What are you trying to say?!
[19:23] ---
    Calm down.
[19:25] ---
    Turn calamity into good fortune.
[19:29] ---
    It is extremely rare for all
    five Kage to assemble.
[19:34] ---
    What do you say?
[19:36] ---
    Until the Akatsuki is eliminated,
    why not establish
[19:38] ---
    the world's first Allied Shinobi Forces
    of the Five Hidden Villages?
[19:45] ---
    An allied force?
[19:48] ---
    That is a fine plan.
    We are in an emergency state.
[19:53] ---
    Cooperation is crucial.
[19:57] ---
    It's going perfectly.
[19:59] ---
    Going forward, we must determine
    a chain of command.
[20:04] ---
    We must avoid any further confusion.
[20:09] ---
    So? Who will we choose to
    lead the allied forces?
[20:15] ---
    Leaving that to you five
    will only result in arguments.
[20:17] ---
    So I ask that you respect
    the position of the neutral nations
[20:22] ---
    and allow me to come up
    with a proposal
[20:25] ---
    to decide who among you
    five Kage is most suitable.
[20:34] ---
    This spells the end of Tsunade's era.
[20:38] ---
    Presently, only Hidden Leaf Village
    has a Jinchuriki, the Nine-Tails.
[20:42] ---
    The key is how to utilize it.
[20:50] ---
    How about granting
    the supreme authority
[20:52] ---
    of the Allied Shinobi Forces
    to the Hokage?
[22:37] ---
    Why did it turn out like this?!
    
    
[22:39] ---
    Don't cry, Ino!
    
    
[22:40] ---
    Kiba, don't be so harsh.
    
    
[22:41] ---
    You know how Ino has felt
    about Sasuke all these...
    
    
[22:43] ---
    It can't be helped!
    
    
[22:45] ---
    Things have changed since then.
    
    
[22:47] ---
    Will they be okay?
    
    
[22:48] ---
    Look at Ino.
    How will Naruto and Sakura take it?
    
    
[22:51] ---
    Let's leave it to Shikamaru.
    He'll find the right words.
    
    
[22:55] ---
    Next time on Naruto Shippuden:
    "Painful Decision"
    
    
    
[22:59] ---
    Wait, Shikamaru!
[23:04] ---
    Tune in again!
