**[00:05] ---**
When we enter the Land of Iron,
please find Naruto, Kiba.
**[00:09] ---**
I know!
**[00:15] ---**
What's wrong?
**[00:16] ---**
All Ino could do was cry.
**[00:19] ---**
But look at Sakura's determination.
**[00:21] ---**
I don't know what she'll say to Naruto,
**[00:23] ---**
but it's gonna get
really uncomfortable.
**[00:27] ---**
I'm sure Sakura's got some ideas.
**[00:31] ---**
Four-man squads are the standard,
**[00:35] ---**
but any search mission
usually includes me.
**[00:38] ---**
Plus, I've got that secret request
from Sai.
**[00:41] ---**
I need to use my nose
to see if the Foundation,
**[00:44] ---**
the Anbu under Danzo, is following us.
**[00:47] ---**
Talk about working us to the bone.
Ain't that right, Akamaru?
**[00:57] ---**
Hey you!
Look at what you’ve done!
**[01:00] ---**
That's why I hate ninja.
**[01:02] ---**
I-I'm sorry. I'll make sure it's repaired.
**[01:12] ---**
*Sasuke has shouldered
the entire burden*
**[01:15] ---**
*of the Uchiha’s hatred and intends
to strike the world with that curse.*
**[01:20] ---**
*It is the most powerful weapon.*
**[01:22] ---**
*It’s his friend and source of power,
this thing called hatred.*
**[01:26] ---**
*And it is Sasuke’s Ninja Way!*
**[01:30] ---**
*Sasuke chose this himself.*
**[01:40] ---**
*The only thing left to do
is to ask him myself.*
**[01:47] ---**
It seems Shee was right.
The Hokage did make an escape.
**[01:51] ---**
Yes, because of Sasuke.
**[02:03] ---**
Nothing planned by the Akatsuki
is going to be good.
**[02:06] ---**
Who knows what you're up to?
**[02:08] ---**
*Sasuke is…*
**[02:11] ---**
Bring Sasuke back!
**[02:13] ---**
Then listen to my explanation.
**[02:15] ---**
It will all depend on your answer.
**[02:17] ---**
Calm down, Raikage.
**[02:20] ---**
Let's hear him out,
and take it from there.
**[02:25] ---**
Revive Sasuke.
**[02:29] ---**
So that's Madara's ability?
**[02:32] ---**
The Transportation Technique.
**[02:40] ---**
Where am I?
**[02:44] ---**
Now then, are you all ready to listen?
**[02:48] ---**
Why are you trying to win Sasuke over?
**[02:52] ---**
A Sharingan capable of awakening
the Susano'o is rare.
**[02:56] ---**
I like to stock up on good eyes.
**[03:00] ---**
By battling the Five Kage,
**[03:02] ---**
I wanted him to hone
his ocular powers even more.
**[03:04] ---**
I'm the one who sent Sasuke here.
**[03:07] ---**
I was intending on weakening the Five Kage
and taking you all hostage.
**[03:11] ---**
It seems that is still not possible.
**[03:14] ---**
Taking us hostage?
For what purpose?!
**[03:17] ---**
To smoothly implement
the aforementioned Project Tsuki no Me.
**[03:21] ---**
It's quite shocking to learn that
Madara Uchiha is still alive,
**[03:26] ---**
but why would a man of your skill
resort to such a roundabout method?
**[03:30] ---**
Surely, you have the strength
to bring any plan to fruition.
**[03:35] ---**
The injuries I sustained during my battle
**[03:37] ---**
with the First Hokage Hashirama
were too severe.
**[03:39] ---**
I have no strength in me now.
**[03:42] ---**
You could say I am merely
a shell of my old self.
**[03:46] ---**
Is this a plan to restore yourself?
**[03:52] ---**
You could say that.
But that's not all.
**[03:56] ---**
What are you scheming?!
**[03:58] ---**
Just what is this Project Tsuki no Me?!
**[04:01] ---**
I want to take my time talking to you.
Let me sit down.
**[04:05] ---**
We’re asking you
what kind of plan it is!
**[04:13] ---**
All shall become one with me,
**[04:15] ---**
and result in a complete
possession form that unites all.
**[04:22] ---**
Become one? Unite all?
**[04:26] ---**
What do you mean?!
**[04:30] ---**
The Uchiha have
an ancient stone tablet
**[04:32] ---**
that has been passed down
through the generations.
**[04:34] ---**
It still exists underground in
the Hidden Leaf Village.
**[04:37] ---**
Upon it are written secrets,
**[04:39] ---**
engraved by the Sage of
the Six Paths himself.
**[04:42] ---**
It cannot be read unless
you possess ocular powers.
**[04:45] ---**
With the Sharingan,
**[04:46] ---**
the Mangekyo Sharingan
and Rinnegan, in that order,
**[04:49] ---**
the contents become
increasingly visible.
**[04:52] ---**
Your story is unlikely.
The Sage of the Six Paths doesn't…
**[04:57] ---**
It is the truth!
**[04:59] ---**
He did exist.
And he left the stone tablet.
**[05:03] ---**
Don't change the subject!
**[05:06] ---**
What does your plan have to do
with the Sage of the Six Paths?!
**[05:11] ---**
Do you know why he became
a legendary figure
**[05:14] ---**
and a godlike figure
that is revered as a god of ninja?
**[05:20] ---**
There lies the link between my plan
and this man.
**[05:24] ---**
Madara Uchiha…
**[05:26] ---**
You possess the Mangekyo Sharingan
and among the Akatsuki,
**[05:29] ---**
there was one who possessed
the Rinnegan.
**[05:31] ---**
You know everything, don't you?
**[05:34] ---**
We're listening.
**[05:35] ---**
He once saved the world
from a certain monster.
**[05:40] ---**
Monster?
**[05:42] ---**
Gaara, you also had one part of
that monster sealed inside you.
**[05:48] ---**
That monster was the combination of
every Tailed Beast in existence.
**[05:51] ---**
Something that possessed
the most powerful chakra.
**[05:56] ---**
The Ten-Tails!
**[07:39] ---**
*Declaration of War*
**[07:44] ---**
That monster was the combination
of every Tailed Beast in existence.
**[07:46] ---**
Something that possessed
the most powerful chakra.
**[07:49] ---**
The Ten-Tails.
**[07:51] ---**
Aren't there only nine Tailed Beasts?!
**[07:54] ---**
I just told you.
**[07:55] ---**
It was the combination of
all the Tailed Beasts.
**[08:00] ---**
Shukaku, Gaara's Tailed Beast
known as…
**[08:05] ---**
the One-Tail!
**[08:07] ---**
The fiery Monster Cat of
the Hidden Cloud's Yugito Ni’i…
**[08:12] ---**
the Two-Tails!
**[08:16] ---**
The former Mizukage's…
**[08:19] ---**
Three-Tails!
**[08:23] ---**
Roshi of the Lava Style’s…
**[08:26] ---**
Four-Tails!
**[08:29] ---**
Han of the Hidden Stone’s…
**[08:31] ---**
Five-Tails!
**[08:34] ---**
The Rogue Ninja Utakata’s…
**[08:37] ---**
Six-Tails!
**[08:42] ---**
Fuu of the Hidden Waterfalls’…
**[08:45] ---**
Seven-Tails!
**[08:48] ---**
Raikage's younger brother,
Killer Bee’s…
**[08:51] ---**
Eight-Tails!
**[08:55] ---**
And the fox spirit of the Hidden Leaf…
**[08:57] ---**
the Nine-Tails!
**[09:01] ---**
The Ten-Tails' chakra was simply
divided up into the nine Tailed Beasts,
**[09:08] ---**
by the Sage of the Six Paths.
**[09:11] ---**
I don't like where this story is headed.
**[09:13] ---**
Is that why the Akatsuki are
gathering the Tailed Beasts?
**[09:17] ---**
The Sage of the Six Paths
developed a certain ninjutsu
**[09:21] ---**
in order to protect the world
from the Ten-Tails.
**[09:24] ---**
Even today, that ninjutsu is still
being secretly passed down.
**[09:27] ---**
It is the Sealing Jutsu process
for Jinchuriki.
**[09:30] ---**
Yes, the Sage of the Six Paths was
the Ten-Tails' Jinchuriki.
**[09:35] ---**
In order to suppress it,
he sealed the Ten-Tails within his body.
**[09:41] ---**
The Sage, who saved
a world terrorized by the Ten-Tails,
**[09:45] ---**
became a savior and won praise as a god.
**[09:48] ---**
But if the Sage died, the powerful
and demonic chakra of the Ten-Tails
**[09:54] ---**
would once again be released
unto the world.
**[09:56] ---**
Fearing this, at the time of his death,
**[09:59] ---**
the Sage of the Six Paths summoned
every last ounce of his power
**[10:01] ---**
to partition the Ten-Tails' chakra
into nine parts
**[10:03] ---**
and scattered them across the world.
**[10:06] ---**
Then he sealed the Ten-Tails' body,
now devoid of chakra,
**[10:10] ---**
and hurled it into the sky.
**[10:14] ---**
And it became the moon.
**[10:17] ---**
What a tall tale!
As if a human could do such a thing.
**[10:22] ---**
When he became
the Jinchuriki of the Ten-Tails,
**[10:25] ---**
the Sage of the Six Paths went
beyond the realm of humans.
**[10:28] ---**
I understand now that
you seek that inhuman power
**[10:32] ---**
by gathering the chakra of the nine,
namely all, of the Tailed Beasts.
**[10:38] ---**
But what will you do with all that power?
**[10:42] ---**
Revive the Ten-Tails.
**[10:45] ---**
And I will become
the Ten-Tail’s Jinchuriki.
**[10:48] ---**
I will use its power to strengthen
my ocular powers,
**[10:52] ---**
and activate a certain jutsu.
**[10:55] ---**
A certain jutsu?! What is it?
**[10:58] ---**
What do you intend to do?
**[11:01] ---**
A Super Genjutsu,
where I project my eyes off the moon.
**[11:04] ---**
Infinite Tsukuyomi.
**[11:08] ---**
I will cast a genjutsu on every human
that walks the earth.
**[11:11] ---**
And in that genjutsu, I will control
all humans and unify the world.
**[11:19] ---**
A world without hatred or war.
**[11:22] ---**
Everything will become one with me,
everything will be united.
**[11:28] ---**
That is my Project Tsuki no Me.
**[11:31] ---**
Stop joking around!
I’m not handing the world over to you!
**[11:34] ---**
Peace that exists only as
an illusion is deception.
**[11:37] ---**
Peace is only meaningful when it is
genuinely achieved in the real world.
**[11:40] ---**
So what exists inside such a world?
**[11:43] ---**
There is no hope, no dreams!
It’s just an escape!
**[11:46] ---**
Unite the world, huh?
**[11:49] ---**
Danzo mentioned something similar.
**[11:53] ---**
But instead of uniting the world,
**[11:56] ---**
it just sounds like you want to
make the world yours!
**[12:02] ---**
All this talk and yet,
what have you Five Kage accomplished?
**[12:06] ---**
You of all people should know by now…
**[12:12] ---**
There is no such thing as hope!
**[12:16] ---**
To hope is equivalent to giving up,
**[12:18] ---**
and it’s the biggest deception of all.
**[12:22] ---**
Turn over the remaining
Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails,
**[12:24] ---**
and cooperate with my plan.
**[12:27] ---**
Or there will be war.
**[12:30] ---**
War you say?
**[12:31] ---**
The Eight-Tails?
What are you talking about?
**[12:34] ---**
Didn't you get Bee?
**[12:37] ---**
The attempt to capture
the Eight-Tails failed and he escaped.
**[12:40] ---**
He is a ninja who is a perfect Jinchuriki.
**[12:44] ---**
Only your younger brother
has got what it takes.
**[12:45] ---**
Huh?!
**[12:48] ---**
Yeah, I sort of had a feeling about that.
**[12:53] ---**
That idiot!
**[12:55] ---**
He used that chance to slip away and now,
he's having the time of his life!
**[12:58] ---**
Unforgivable!
He's going to get my Iron Claw!
**[13:01] ---**
We will not hand over Naruto Uzumaki.
**[13:03] ---**
I agree with him!
**[13:06] ---**
What about you, Raikage?
**[13:07] ---**
There's no way I'll let him have
my younger brother!
**[13:10] ---**
I don't have the strength,
**[13:12] ---**
but the Tailed Beasts
we've gathered so far, do.
**[13:15] ---**
You people have no chance of winning.
**[13:18] ---**
We haven't given up hope.
**[13:20] ---**
Very well.
**[13:22] ---**
I hereby declare the start
of the Fourth Great Ninja War.
**[13:27] ---**
The Fourth Great Ninja War?
**[13:30] ---**
Are you mad?!
**[13:37] ---**
The next time we meet will be
on the battlefield.
**[13:51] ---**
Well then, what do we do now?
**[13:54] ---**
We have to form
an Allied Shinobi Force.
**[13:57] ---**
It’s the only way we can counter
the power of the seven Tailed Beasts.
**[14:02] ---**
You were opposed to this,
weren't you, Lord Raikage?
**[14:05] ---**
It seems my younger brother is alive.
**[14:07] ---**
We cannot allow ourselves to be
manipulated by the Akatsuki any longer.
**[14:12] ---**
Form the alliance and
settle this once and for all!
**[14:15] ---**
What about the Hidden Leaf?
The Hokage ran off.
**[14:19] ---**
There is too much suspicion
surrounding Danzo.
**[14:21] ---**
He lost our trust at this summit.
**[14:25] ---**
When the Hidden Leaf ninja
learn about him,
**[14:28] ---**
his position in the village will
become insecure.
**[14:31] ---**
He will be removed in no time!
**[14:33] ---**
I will speak to someone I trust among
the Hidden Leaf
**[14:36] ---**
regarding the Allied Shinobi Force.
**[14:38] ---**
Who would that be?
**[14:39] ---**
Kakashi Hatake of the Sharingan.
**[14:43] ---**
You mean the White Fang’s son?
**[14:48] ---**
*Right here and now, this young ninja,
no matter how awkwardly,*
**[14:52] ---**
*is bowing his head in his affection*
**[14:54] ---**
*for the Cloud and Leaf,
village and nation.*
**[14:58] ---**
*Lord Raikage…*
**[14:59] ---**
*As one of the five Kage,
what do you think of this?*
**[15:06] ---**
Fine. He seems more trustworthy
than Danzo.
**[15:11] ---**
Agreed.
**[15:14] ---**
Lord Raikage, we must take measures
to find Killer Bee immediately!
**[15:18] ---**
If the Akatsuki want
the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails,
**[15:20] ---**
they are probably still pursuing Bee.
**[15:24] ---**
Yes. Shee, send word to
the village to put together
**[15:27] ---**
a Tracking Unit to begin the search
for Bee immediately!
**[15:31] ---**
Yes sir!
**[15:32] ---**
We must notify Samui's team too.
**[15:35] ---**
Omoi and Karui have been
feeling quite distraught.
**[15:38] ---**
If we are to stop
Madara's Project Tsuki no Me,
**[15:42] ---**
we cannot let the Eight-Tails and
Nine-Tails fall into his hands.
**[15:45] ---**
I think it is imperative that
our Allied Shinobi Forces find the two first
**[15:49] ---**
and place them into hiding.
**[15:53] ---**
Y-You're absolutely right!
**[15:54] ---**
If the day comes when
this Ten-Tails is revived…
**[15:57] ---**
However, we cannot even imagine
the power Madara wields
**[16:01] ---**
with the seven Tailed Beasts
he already has.
**[16:03] ---**
Furthermore, he may possess
certain jutsu or a trump card
**[16:06] ---**
for using the Tailed Beasts.
**[16:08] ---**
Otherwise, he wouldn't have
come on so strong.
**[16:12] ---**
Perhaps it would be wise for
the Allied Shinobi Forces to plan
**[16:16] ---**
on using the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails
as military weapons too.
**[16:20] ---**
That cannot happen.
**[16:22] ---**
This is also a war to protect those two.
**[16:25] ---**
There is a reason why Madara
is waging war
**[16:28] ---**
with just the seven Tailed Beasts
he has collected thus far.
**[16:30] ---**
It is too difficult for Madara,
in his weakened state,
**[16:33] ---**
and the Akatsuki members to capture
the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails.
**[16:38] ---**
And even if they had succeeded,
he felt the risk was too great.
**[16:42] ---**
That is why he may be hoping to
lure the two to his side through war.
**[16:45] ---**
In any case, using the Eight-Tails
and Nine-Tails for battle
**[16:49] ---**
is not a wise strategy.
**[16:51] ---**
I agree.
**[16:54] ---**
I also concur with the Kazekage.
**[16:57] ---**
If we consider
the worst-case scenario,
**[16:59] ---**
it will be like offering the Eight-Tails
or Nine-Tails on a silver platter!
**[17:03] ---**
And besides, the Eight-Tails is
my younger brother and
**[17:06] ---**
"military strategy" is
a foreign concept to him.
**[17:10] ---**
I can’t predict what he’d do.
**[17:13] ---**
*Yay!*
**[17:15] ---**
He may just create more chaos
on the battlefield!
**[17:20] ---**
Naruto the Nine-Tails,
would do the same.
**[17:24] ---**
– That's for sure.
– I'll say.
**[17:27] ---**
I understand.
Well then, Lord Tsuchikage,
**[17:29] ---**
our aim will be to protect and
confine the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails.
**[17:32] ---**
Fine.
**[17:33] ---**
Intel about Killer Bee
will be provided to
**[17:36] ---**
the Stone, Mist, Sand and Leaf Villages.
**[17:38] ---**
Use it to form Tracking Units
and get moving!
**[17:41] ---**
Send word the instant
you find the Eight-Tails.
**[17:45] ---**
My younger brother will
only heed orders from me!
**[17:49] ---**
By the way, Kazekage, we will leave
the matter with Kakashi to you.
**[17:52] ---**
Yes.
**[17:54] ---**
On my way here,
**[17:55] ---**
I met Kakashi Hatake and
the boy who is the Nine-Tails' Jinchuriki.
**[17:59] ---**
They might still be here
in the Land of Iron.
**[18:01] ---**
You should start your search
for them here.
**[18:04] ---**
Understood.
**[18:08] ---**
U-Um… May I say something?
**[18:10] ---**
What is it?
**[18:11] ---**
Uh… Yes… Umm…
**[18:14] ---**
Spit it out!
**[18:16] ---**
I-In the Akatsuki, there's someone who,
like me, is a member of
**[18:20] ---**
the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.
Kisame Hoshigaki.
**[18:24] ---**
He has chakra equal to that
of a Jinchuriki
**[18:27] ---**
as well as a sword known
as Samehada, Shark Skin,
**[18:29] ---**
which is the most evil, even among
the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.
**[18:32] ---**
When his chakra and sword merge,
even though he is human,
**[18:34] ---**
he releases power close to
that of a Jinchuriki.
**[18:37] ---**
He is like a Tailed Beast
without the tail.
**[18:39] ---**
That's what I've been told by my seniors.
**[18:42] ---**
He is extraordinary and
must not be underestimated.
**[18:46] ---**
We already know that!
**[18:48] ---**
But are you all sure about this plan?
**[18:51] ---**
We do not know what kind of power
**[18:53] ---**
the seven Tailed Beasts possess
under Madara.
**[18:56] ---**
If we confine the Eight-Tails
and Nine-Tails,
**[18:58] ---**
and our Allied Shinobi Force is destroyed
while protecting these Tailed Beasts,
**[19:02] ---**
our entire effort would
have been meaningless.
**[19:06] ---**
If that is the case, I think it is better to
use the two right from the beginning
**[19:11] ---**
in a combined effort with
the Allied Shinobi Forces.
**[19:15] ---**
I wonder about that.
**[19:18] ---**
At this moment, the world's first
Allied Shinobi Force is being formed.
**[19:23] ---**
Its power is also unknown.
**[19:26] ---**
Madara will also be taking a great risk
**[19:28] ---**
in pitting the power of
the seven Tailed Beasts against it.
**[19:31] ---**
Otherwise, why would he have come
to this summit to try to negotiate?
**[19:35] ---**
He must also be dealing with
unfavorable conditions.
**[19:39] ---**
Furthermore, we Samurai
will also participate in this war!
**[19:43] ---**
Lord Tsuchikage…
Do you still have doubts even now?
**[19:51] ---**
Looks like the Raikage and
Kazekage went upstairs.
**[19:55] ---**
Sasuke and Karin must
have gone ahead.
**[19:58] ---**
We should go up too.
**[20:01] ---**
But it's guarded.
**[20:04] ---**
We'll be spotted right away.
**[20:05] ---**
Well, I have a good way.
**[20:10] ---**
What the hell was he?
