*High-Level Shinobi*
**[01:42] ---**
That Danzo…
**[01:44] ---**
He destroyed Shisui's eye
before he died.
**[01:50] ---**
You've been…
**[01:57] ---**
my goal.
**[01:59] ---**
I had nothing,
but I built bonds with Team 7.
**[02:05] ---**
With you and Sakura.
**[02:26] ---**
*I'll end it with this!*
**[02:31] ---**
*What?! He's after Naruto?!*
**[02:34] ---**
*I have to make it!*
**[02:40] ---**
*You'll never stop…
being a burden.*
**[02:49] ---**
*Sasuke, you…*
**[02:57] ---**
*Why?*
**[02:59] ---**
*Why did you protect me?*
**[03:04] ---**
*Why are you looking at me
like that?*
**[03:08] ---**
*You loser.*
**[03:10] ---**
*Why…did you…?*
**[03:15] ---**
*Mind your own business!*
**[03:16] ---**
*Like…*
**[03:19] ---**
*I care.*
**[03:27] ---**
*I…used to hate you.*
**[03:32] ---**
*Sasuke…*
**[03:34] ---**
*You better not die.*
**[03:39] ---**
*Sasuke…*
**[03:42] ---**
*Sasuke!*
**[04:00] ---**
*Hey!*
**[04:04] ---**
*Are you hurt, Scaredy Cat?*
**[04:31] ---**
*Over here!*
**[04:34] ---**
*You're the one messing up
our teamwork!*
**[04:37] ---**
*You're always showing off!*
**[04:39] ---**
*Speak for yourself, loser!*
**[04:43] ---**
*If you don't want to owe me,*
**[04:46] ---**
*you should just become
stronger than me.*
**[05:14] ---**
*Hey, are you hurt, Scaredy Cat?*
**[06:04] ---**
*Here you go!
Thanks for waiting!*
**[06:06] ---**
*Imagine that,
the three of you treating me.*
**[06:09] ---**
*I wouldn't be surprised
if it snowed.*
**[06:21] ---**
*– It totally worked!*
– It totally worked!*
**[06:27] ---**
*Chidori!*
**[06:33] ---**
*Even if I have to beat you to
a pulp and drag you,*
**[06:35] ---**
*I'll bring you back!*
**[07:11] ---**
I wanted to be strong
and cool like you.
**[07:15] ---**
That's why I kept chasing
after you.
**[07:23] ---**
I'm really glad I met you.
**[07:28] ---**
Naruto…
**[07:30] ---**
You can't change me,
no matter what you say to me now.
**[07:36] ---**
I'm going to kill
each and every person in the Leaf,
**[07:39] ---**
including you!
**[07:45] ---**
And I'll get revenge for
the Uchiha Clan!
**[07:50] ---**
Is that really the only way?
**[07:54] ---**
Yes.
**[07:56] ---**
So your only choices are
to kill me and
**[07:59] ---**
become the hero who
saved the village,
**[08:02] ---**
or to be killed by me and
become known as just a loser!
**[08:07] ---**
Sasuke…
**[08:09] ---**
I don't believe that.
**[08:14] ---**
I'm not going to be the loser,
or the hero who killed you!
**[08:21] ---**
Neither one's gonna happen!
**[08:28] ---**
I…
**[08:50] ---**
Whoa!
**[08:56] ---**
You!
**[08:58] ---**
When did you—?
**[09:00] ---**
I've been tagging along
for quite a while.
**[09:04] ---**
Tobi told me to make sure
you didn't notice me.
**[09:10] ---**
But, since you were in a crisis…
**[09:18] ---**
*I should summon him soon.*
**[09:21] ---**
*It doesn't seem like
he's going to retreat quietly.*
**[09:24] ---**
Naruto…
**[09:25] ---**
I told you to go back
to the village.
**[09:28] ---**
Now…
**[09:32] ---**
it's all clear.
**[09:38] ---**
I'd better collect the Rinnegan
before the war begins.
**[09:47] ---**
Sasuke's in a bind.
What do you want to do?
**[09:55] ---**
"It's all clear"?
**[09:57] ---**
What do you mean, Naruto?
**[10:20] ---**
What's going on, Sasuke?
**[10:22] ---**
I told you to go home and rest.
**[10:27] ---**
*Madara…*
**[10:41] ---**
The Nine-Tails, huh?
**[10:43] ---**
It seems you cannot suppress
the urge to fight
**[10:46] ---**
when you two get together.
**[10:49] ---**
I'll arrange a proper place
for you to hunt the Nine-Tails.
**[10:55] ---**
For now, we retreat.
**[10:59] ---**
I'll fight in your stead.
**[11:02] ---**
Since we need the Nine-Tails
Jinchuriki anyway.
**[11:11] ---**
*Madara as well as Zetsu?*
**[11:13] ---**
*They're sticking close to Sasuke.*
**[11:15] ---**
*This is going to be tough
all by myself.*
**[11:19] ---**
*What should I do?*
**[11:22] ---**
Zetsu… You can't capture Naruto.
**[11:27] ---**
The Nine-Tails will be too much
for a non-combat type like you.
**[11:31] ---**
I'm going to let Sasuke
get the Nine-Tails.
**[11:34] ---**
It's for my enjoyment as well.
**[11:36] ---**
Oh, is that so?
**[11:39] ---**
But I'm concerned about Kisame.
**[11:41] ---**
So go to him.
**[11:44] ---**
And rendezvous with Black Zetsu.
**[11:45] ---**
Okay, okay, I understand.
**[11:51] ---**
Naruto!
**[11:54] ---**
I'm all right.
**[11:57] ---**
But I need to make sure
I say something to Sasuke.
**[12:03] ---**
Let's go, Sasuke.
**[12:04] ---**
Wait.
**[12:14] ---**
Sasuke… Do you remember?
**[12:18] ---**
Do you remember what you said
to me long ago in the Final Valley?
**[12:24] ---**
The thing about high-level shinobi.
**[12:28] ---**
*When two shinobi are
of a high enough level,*
**[12:30] ---**
*they can read each other's thoughts*
**[12:32] ---**
*through no more than
a trade of blows.*
**[12:35] ---**
*They don't need to say a word.*
**[12:38] ---**
*You're naïve, Naruto.*
**[12:44] ---**
*So tell me…*
**[12:46] ---**
*Were you able to read what
was inside of my heart?*
**[12:53] ---**
Clashing face-to-face.
**[12:55] ---**
Just now, we learned things from
just trading blows with each other.
**[12:58] ---**
It means we've become
high-level shinobi.
**[13:03] ---**
You and me.
**[13:06] ---**
Sasuke…
**[13:10] ---**
Were you able to read…
**[13:16] ---**
what was inside
of my heart?
**[13:20] ---**
And you saw it, didn't you?
**[13:23] ---**
That if you and I fight…
**[13:29] ---**
we will both die.
**[13:39] ---**
Sasuke…
**[13:41] ---**
If you attack the Hidden Leaf,
I will have to fight you.
**[13:46] ---**
Save your hatred until then.
**[13:49] ---**
At that time, throw all of
your hatred at me.
**[13:52] ---**
The only one who can
handle all that hatred…
**[13:55] ---**
is me.
**[13:58] ---**
Only I can fulfill that duty!
**[14:01] ---**
And on that day,
**[14:03] ---**
I'll bear the burden of
your hate and die with you!
**[14:12] ---**
What is it with you, Naruto?
**[14:16] ---**
Just what the hell do you want?!
**[14:18] ---**
Why are you so fixated on me?!
**[14:21] ---**
Because you're my friend!
**[14:34] ---**
Sasuke…
**[14:36] ---**
I knew from the moment we first met
that it was going to take more
**[14:40] ---**
than just ordinary means
to understand you.
**[14:45] ---**
Exchanging fists is how
we understand each other.
**[14:48] ---**
That's for sure.
**[14:51] ---**
Like I said just now…
**[14:53] ---**
It means we've become
high-level shinobi.
**[14:58] ---**
*Once we understand each other,
your hatred will go away.*
**[15:01] ---**
*The same way that I changed
after meeting Iruka Sensei.*
**[15:06] ---**
I'm not giving up yet.
**[15:09] ---**
I'm taking you back
to Hidden Leaf Village!
**[15:13] ---**
That's something I'll never give up on!
**[15:17] ---**
*Naruto…you…*
**[15:22] ---**
Well, I've rambled on enough.
**[15:27] ---**
Damn it.
**[15:28] ---**
A poor talker like me lecturing you,
it's not my style.
**[15:35] ---**
If we both end up dying…
**[15:40] ---**
You won't be an Uchiha and
I won't be the Nine-Tail's Jinchuriki.
**[15:44] ---**
We'll be free of all our burdens.
**[15:47] ---**
And we'll finally be able to understand
each other in the next world!
**[16:06] ---**
I don't plan on changing.
**[16:09] ---**
Nor am I interested
in understanding you.
**[16:11] ---**
And I don't plan on dying!
**[16:14] ---**
You're the one who's going to die.
**[16:17] ---**
If I die, we both die, Sasuke.
**[16:33] ---**
Fine then! I'll kill you first.
**[16:38] ---**
It's clear you still haven't
acknowledged me yet.
**[16:43] ---**
Enough, Naruto.
I'll take Sasuke on.
**[16:46] ---**
You have your precious dream
of becoming the Hokage.
**[16:50] ---**
I can't let Sasuke take
you down with him.
**[16:52] ---**
How can I become the Hokage
**[16:55] ---**
if I can't even save one friend?!
**[16:58] ---**
I'll fight Sasuke!
**[17:08] ---**
*Naruto stands here
with clear resolve.*
**[17:13] ---**
*I'll bear the burden of
your hate and die with you!*
**[17:21] ---**
*Compared to him,
my resolve is weak.*
**[17:25] ---**
*I'm a shinobi.*
**[17:27] ---**
*Yet all I do is cry and
keep relying on Naruto.*
**[17:32] ---**
*I came here thinking
I was past all that.*
**[17:36] ---**
*But I haven't prepared myself
for anything.*
**[17:38] ---**
*I can't do a thing.*
**[17:40] ---**
*I can't say anything.*
**[17:42] ---**
*All I can do…*
**[17:53] ---**
*is trust them!*
**[17:57] ---**
All right, Naruto.
I'll leave Sasuke to you.
**[18:01] ---**
However, Sakura…
**[18:03] ---**
Watch over my body.
**[18:06] ---**
*I'll get rid of Madara
once and for all.*
**[18:08] ---**
*Kamui!*
**[18:10] ---**
Forget it, Kakashi.
**[18:12] ---**
A jutsu like that won't work on me.
**[18:16] ---**
Let's go, Sasuke.
**[18:19] ---**
Madara, I'll talk to you later.
**[18:39] ---**
I'll be ready anytime, Sasuke.
**[18:52] ---**
What did you want
to talk to me about?
**[18:55] ---**
I want Itachi's eyes.
**[18:59] ---**
So you finally made up your mind.
**[19:02] ---**
You've overused the Susano'o.
**[19:04] ---**
I'm aware that you can barely see.
**[19:09] ---**
It's perfect timing.
**[19:12] ---**
Transplant them right away.
**[19:14] ---**
You're in a hurry.
What's going on?
**[19:18] ---**
I'm going use every ounce of
my strength to crush Naruto!
**[19:21] ---**
I'll eradicate him completely!
**[19:24] ---**
That's all.
**[19:30] ---**
*Naruto… Thank you, as always!*
**[19:34] ---**
*Because of you,
I can still hope for the day*
**[19:38] ---**
*that we'll laugh together again
as Team 7.*
**[19:46] ---**
– What?!
– Wha—?!
**[19:49] ---**
Naruto!
**[19:54] ---**
A scratch on his cheek.
This must be the cause.
**[19:57] ---**
Then it's…
**[20:03] ---**
*Naruto?!*
**[20:05] ---**
*Naruto…*
**[20:08] ---**
It's from the poison-dipped
kunai knife I used earlier.
**[20:12] ---**
Seems like it.
**[20:15] ---**
You need to administer
the antidote right away, Sakura!
**[20:22] ---**
I'm taking you to Hidden Leaf Village.
**[20:25] ---**
So please behave yourself.
**[20:28] ---**
I wouldn't try anything at this point.
**[20:32] ---**
I still feel sick.
**[20:34] ---**
A-Are you all right?
**[20:38] ---**
You're gonna throw up!
**[20:40] ---**
– *So that's…*
– Hold on a minute!
**[20:43] ---**
*Naruto Uzumaki, huh?*
**[20:47] ---**
Are you ready?
**[20:50] ---**
Do it.
**[20:55] ---**
*Brother…*
**[21:02] ---**
*I will crush
the Hidden Leaf!*
**[22:37] ---**
Yo! Long time no see Omoi! Karui!
**[22:39] ---**
Have ya been getting along cheerfully,
care-free-ly? Merrily?
**[22:42] ---**
Of course not!
**[22:44] ---**
After you suddenly disappeared
from the village like that…
**[22:45] ---**
Now, now! He was safe all this time
so it's all okay!
**[22:48] ---**
What's that?
**[22:49] ---**
Just a spoil of war from my battle
**[22:51] ---**
against one of the Seven
Ninja Swordsmen.
**[22:53] ---**
It's taken a liking to me.
**[22:55] ---**
Next time on Naruto Shippuden:
"The Infiltrator"
**[22:59] ---**
Wow, so this is one of the Seven
Ninja Swordsmen's blades, huh?
**[23:05] ---**
Tune in again!
