[00:18] ---
    That's his real body.
[00:20] ---
    After twenty years,
    what say we face each other?
[00:46] ---
    What took you so long?
[00:48] ---
    But I flew back as quickly
    as I could.
[00:50] ---
    More to the point,
[00:51] ---
    you took too long to send over
    a substitute border guard.
[00:55] ---
    Your planning was bad.
[00:58] ---
    That's no way to show
    your appreciation.
[01:00] ---
    I carried out your selfish request
    despite recovering from an illness.
[01:10] ---
    Well... Shall we get going?
[01:13] ---
    Yeah.
[01:14] ---
    Yes, sir!
[01:45] ---
    It can still move?!
[02:05] ---
    As I thought.
[02:07] ---
    Just what I'd expect
    from my old granny.
[02:10] ---
    No wonder this little girl was able
    to dodge my hidden weapons.
[02:24] ---
    After all, the old lady who can see
    past my attacks was controlling
[02:29] ---
    the little girl with Chakra threads
    used for the Puppet Master Jutsu.
[02:33] ---
    He found out.
[02:35] ---
    What's more, you were so kind as to
    attach threads of Chakra to Hiruko's tail.
[02:43] ---
    But to think that I'd notice it
[02:45] ---
    after the tail's motion had been
    brought to a halt...
[02:49] ---
    It was when you first attacked
    with the Kunai Knife, wasn't it?
[02:56] ---
    Threads of Chakra attached
    to the Kunai Knife
[02:59] ---
    latched onto the tail
    when it repelled the Kunai Knife.
[03:09] ---
    I suppressed my Chakra as much
    as possible so as not to be seen,
[03:13] ---
    and yet you still figured it out.
[03:15] ---
    I'm amazed.
[03:19] ---
    But of course.
[03:21] ---
    After all, the one who hammered
    the principles of puppetry into me was...
[03:25] ---
    none other than you.
[03:27] ---
    Yes.
[03:29] ---
    But the show ends today.
[03:33] ---
    That is my intention as well.
[03:41] ---
    Well then, will things proceed
    as simply as that, I wonder...
[03:46] ---
    Granny Chiyo...?
[03:52] ---
    Granny Chiyo?
[03:56] ---
    Is he... Is he Sasori?
[04:00] ---
    What is going on?
[04:03] ---
    *He's just as he was before...
    He hasn't aged a bit.
[04:11] ---
    What's going on?!
[04:13] ---
    *I was told Sasori broke off from
    the Hidden Sand 20 years ago...
[04:18] ---
    *There's no way that
    he could be this young.
[06:05] ---
    Sasori's Real Face
    
    
    
[06:11] ---
    Damn!
[06:16] ---
    *The sound that I heard coming
    from inside just a while ago...
[06:19] ---
    *There's no doubt that
    the battle has already begun.
[06:22] ---
    *I'd like to get a grasp
    of the situation, but...
[06:28] ---
    You! Return Gaara to us!
[06:32] ---
    It's only a matter of time
[06:34] ---
    *before my man Sasori does away
    with the group inside.
[06:44] ---
    If my man comes out,
[06:46] ---
    *then the whole point of using this one
    to draw out the Jinchuriki will be lost.
[06:55] ---
    You jerk!
    I won't let you get away.
[06:59] ---
    Hold it right there!
[07:01] ---
    Naruto, wait a minute!
[07:03] ---
    Kakashi Sensei,
    you go look after Sakura!
[07:07] ---
    Good grief.
[07:18] ---
    Guy, how are conditions
    over there?
[07:32] ---
    Sorry Kakashi, it looks like things
    will still take a while over here.
[07:48] ---
    Rotation.
[07:53] ---
    If detaining someone is your objective,
    there's no better way than this.
[08:10] ---
    If your opponent has exactly
    the same abilities as you do...
[08:17] ---
    It probably won't be that easy
    to bring matters to a close.
[08:26] ---
    Splendid move, Mr. Imposter.
[08:30] ---
    Damn... Looks like it's impossible to
    expect back-up for a while.
[08:37] ---
    *Sakura, Granny Chiyo,
    hold down the fort a bit longer!
[08:44] ---
    There's no way I'm going
    to let you get away!
[08:50] ---
    They're coming, aren't they?
[08:53] ---
    Better keep up!
[08:58] ---
    And then,
    I will settle matters properly...
[09:26] ---
    Stop!
[09:29] ---
    What's wrong, Kankuro?
[09:32] ---
    We'll rest here.
[09:34] ---
    What?! What do you think
    you're doing, Kankuro?!
[09:37] ---
    There's no time to rest easy
    in a situation like this!
[09:40] ---
    Don't be so impatient...
    That's not like you, Sis.
[09:49] ---
    I'm sorry, Miss Temari.
[09:52] ---
    Just a little while...
    If we rest just a little while,
[09:53] ---
    we'll be able to start
    running again right away!
[09:55] ---
    Please let us rest a little while.
[09:59] ---
    You guys have no discipline.
    And you call yourselves Shinobi?!
[10:03] ---
    Stop being unreasonable.
[10:05] ---
    These guys took turns guarding
    the border for a whole day.
[10:09] ---
    And no sooner had they returned
    to the village,
[10:12] ---
    they had to run all the way here...
[10:14] ---
    However top-notch Shinobi they may be,
[10:16] ---
    you can't force them to do
    more than this.
[10:19] ---
    No, we're okay!
[10:21] ---
    We can't be resting while
    Lord Gaara is in trouble!
[10:27] ---
    We should do what we can
    for the Kazekage's sake!
[10:31] ---
    Yes, for the Kazekage's sake!
[10:34] ---
    Miss Temari! Let's head out.
[10:37] ---
    You guys! That's the spirit!
[10:40] ---
    Now, now,
    you shouldn't get so fired up about it.
[10:43] ---
    Ebizo...
[10:45] ---
    A Shinobi should never lose
    his composure under any circumstances.
[10:51] ---
    Forgetting that and pursuing
    the enemy too far all by himself
[10:54] ---
    was the cause of
    Kankuro's recent failure, wasn't it?
[11:00] ---
    Besides, in your current state,
[11:02] ---
    all of you are not being aware
    of your surroundings.
[11:04] ---
    What do you mean by that...?
[11:07] ---
    Well, look at that.
[11:10] ---
    Th-That...?!
[11:14] ---
    That must be the remains of the battle
    that Akatsuki fought with the Leaf.
[11:19] ---
    That means...
[11:20] ---
    Yes. You have to assume that
    we have already entered their territory.
[11:28] ---
    There's no telling what kind of traps
    they may have set up ahead.
[11:32] ---
    When you're about to set foot
    in such a place,
[11:36] ---
    you'll be annihilated in no time
    if you go dashing in,
[11:41] ---
    exhausted the way you all are now.
[11:48] ---
    This is just perfect.
[11:50] ---
    While you're resting, I'll tell you all
    a story about the old days.
[11:59] ---
    It was long, long ago.
[12:02] ---
    I'm sure you must
    have heard of it...
[12:06] ---
    The incident of the Third Kazekage.
[12:10] ---
    The Third...Kazekage?
[12:12] ---
    Yes... The one before
    the previous Kazekage.
[12:16] ---
    Of all the Kazekage
    down through history,
[12:18] ---
    the Third Kazekage was
    said to be the most powerful.
[12:22] ---
    Then the incident occurred when
    someone kidnapped the Kazekage.
[12:27] ---
    The entire village got all excited
    and went out seeking news
[12:30] ---
    of what had become of
    the Third Kazekage...
[12:32] ---
    Looking back upon it now,
[12:34] ---
    you would have to say
    that they simply lost their cool.
[12:38] ---
    The village's guard wore thin,
[12:41] ---
    allowing the enemy to intrude,
    and panic ensued.
[12:45] ---
    If they had dealt with it
    a little more coolly at the time,
[12:50] ---
    the subsequent war
    could have been avoided.
[12:54] ---
    I am painfully aware of how
    you all feel right now...
[12:58] ---
    But...you mustn't repeat
    the same mistakes
[13:02] ---
    that were made back in
    the days of the Third Kazekage.
[13:09] ---
    Ebizo...
[13:11] ---
    did they ever learn what happened to
    the Third Kazekage after that?
[13:16] ---
    After that, the Anbu Black Ops
    continued to investigate in secret,
[13:21] ---
    but no body was ever found,
[13:22] ---
    nor any sign that the Kazekage
    had been removed...
[13:48] ---
    What's wrong, Granny Chiyo?
[13:51] ---
    Are you so filled with emotion
    that you cannot speak?
[13:58] ---
    That's not surprising.
[13:59] ---
    After all, it's our first reunion
    in 20 years.
[14:05] ---
    Sasori, you...
[14:06] ---
    While I'm at it,
    I'll show you something special.
[14:14] ---
    It's guaranteed to move you.
[14:17] ---
    A collection that gave me
    a hard time when trying to kill it, but...
[14:22] ---
    Three?
[14:23] ---
    That's why I like this best of all.
[14:36] ---
    Th-That... It couldn't be!
[14:40] ---
    What? What's wrong?!
[14:48] ---
    That's...the Third Kazekage...
[14:53] ---
    What?!
[14:58] ---
    The Third...Kazekage?
[15:13] ---
    How about it?
[15:14] ---
    Doesn't that take you back,
    Granny Chiyo?
[15:18] ---
    Granny Chiyo, the Third Kazekage...?
[15:21] ---
    How could this have happened?
[15:24] ---
    Then...
[15:26] ---
    It was over ten years ago
[15:29] ---
    that the Third Kazekage suddenly
    disappeared from the village.
[15:35] ---
    We scoured the countryside,
    but we were never able to find him.
[15:39] ---
    He was the most powerful
    of all the Kazekage's, but...
[15:43] ---
    Sasori, you...?
[15:46] ---
    And so what if I did?
[15:48] ---
    Do you mean to say that a retired old lady
    with one foot in the grave
[15:51] ---
    is about to avenge
    the Third Kazekage?
[15:54] ---
    Tough luck...
[15:57] ---
    Retired, with one foot in the grave.
    That may be so,
[15:59] ---
    but it was worth hauling
    my heavy behind over here.
[16:02] ---
    I'd have too many regrets
    if I were to die now.
[16:07] ---
    It's bad enough that my grandson
[16:09] ---
    got himself mixed up
    with a bad crowd...
[16:12] ---
    but to think that you'd betray the village
[16:14] ---
    and try to meddle with the Kazekage,
    for the third time!
[16:18] ---
    Third time?
[16:24] ---
    It was Orochimaru
    who killed Gaara's father,
[16:27] ---
    the Fourth Kazekage, but...
[16:30] ---
    the one who guided them
    was Sasori!
[16:33] ---
    And this time,
    Gaara and even the Third Kazekage...
[16:39] ---
    Hey, hey, I don't know anything
    about the Fourth Kazekage.
[16:44] ---
    The one who guided them
    was my subordinate.
[16:47] ---
    In that case, it's the same
    as if you did it yourself.
[16:51] ---
    Can you really say that
    you were not involved?
[16:53] ---
    Indeed, I was originally paired with
    Orochimaru back at the Akatsuki,
[16:58] ---
    so I did lots of things but...
[17:09] ---
    You...
[17:12] ---
    If you were paired
    with Orochimaru...
[17:17] ---
    then that means you know
    about Orochimaru.
[17:21] ---
    In that case, there're a lot
    of questions I need you to answer!
[17:31] ---
    Sakura...
[17:34] ---
    Unfortunately,
    I must take you two out
[17:37] ---
    and go capture that Jinchuriki.
[17:42] ---
    I hate to keep people waiting,
[17:45] ---
    so I have no time
    to answer your questions.
[17:49] ---
    So...
[17:52] ---
    shall we get right to it?
[17:56] ---
    Here it comes!
[18:06] ---
    Die!
[18:11] ---
    He's fast!
[18:21] ---
    *To think that Hiruko's tail
    fell to pieces...
[18:24] ---
    You've got some
    pretty good moves, Granny Chiyo.
[18:27] ---
    In that case, how about this?
[18:35] ---
    Oh no!
[18:36] ---
    Take this!
[18:59] ---
    Sakura!
[19:09] ---
    Damn. Did I botch it?
[19:19] ---
    Saved!
[19:22] ---
    *With the old lady manipulating things,
    it's impossible to get anywhere.
[19:29] ---
    In that case...
[19:38] ---
    Oh, no! Sakura! Hold your breath!
[19:41] ---
    Is it poison?!
[19:44] ---
    *In this poisonous smoke,
    your movements will be irrelevant.
[19:54] ---
    Sakura--!
[21:39] ---
    Guy Sensei, this is terrible!
[21:40] ---
    What is it, Lee?!
[21:41] ---
    *According to the information
    received just now,
[21:43] ---
    *Kakashi Sensei is the star
    of today's Mini Feature!
[21:46] ---
    *What?! He gets a juicy deal like that
    while we're down here fighting?!
[21:50] ---
    In that case,
[21:51] ---
    *we'll have to take these guys out
    quickly and join the show!
[21:54] ---
    Youth at full power!
[21:55] ---
    No way, we can't make it...
[21:56] ---
    *Hard effort will pay off!
    Right, Tenten?
[21:58] ---
    Huh? Where's Tenten?!
[22:00] ---
    *She just left all excited,
    saying she got selected as the MC!
[22:03] ---
    Next time: "Chiyo's Secret Skills"
    
    
    
    Say what--?! That traitor!
