[00:08] ---
    Before he died,
    Jiraiya said to me,
[00:10] ---
    "go store yourself inside Naruto."
[00:15] ---
    Are you crazy?!
[00:16] ---
    The key that corresponds to
    Naruto's Eight-Signed Seal
[00:20] ---
    is transcribed on my belly!
[00:22] ---
    Each year,
    the Fourth Hokage's seal weakens!
[00:25] ---
    The key remains in order
    to re-seal it
[00:28] ---
    when it becomes necessary!
[00:30] ---
    To place such a key right next
    to the safe is unheard of!
[00:34] ---
    Still, Minato entrusted it to us.
[00:38] ---
    It was always meant to be
    returned to Naruto.
[00:41] ---
    It's too soon!
[00:42] ---
    Once you talked me into loosening
    the Tetragram Seal…
[00:47] ---
    You haven't forgotten
    what the results were, have you?!
[00:59] ---
    Yeah…
[01:00] ---
    However, the fact that Minato left me
    the jutsu for the key
[01:06] ---
    convinces me that
    he intended for Naruto
[01:09] ---
    to perfect that jutsu one day.
[01:13] ---
    Great Lord Elder!
[01:15] ---
    Are you sure this is the right thing?
[01:21] ---
    Jiraiya claimed that Naruto
    could completely control
[01:24] ---
    the power of the Nine-Tails,
[01:26] ---
    but when we tested him,
    it didn't go well.
[01:29] ---
    But Jiraiya refused to give in,
[01:31] ---
    saying that it was for that purpose
    that Minato had sealed
[01:34] ---
    half of the Nine-Tails' chakra
    inside of Naruto.
[01:40] ---
    Great Lord Elder, Gerotora himself
    is the key to Naruto's Tetragram Seal.
[01:46] ---
    Is it safe to hand him over to Naruto?
[01:50] ---
    What do you think?
[01:52] ---
    Have Naruto Uzumaki come here.
[01:57] ---
    I shall do a reading on him.
[02:00] ---
    We will then see what
    we must do.
[02:03] ---
    Huh? Is that true?
[02:05] ---
    It hasn't been officially
    announced yet, but it's clear,
[02:08] ---
    judging from the activity in front of
    the hut where she was resting.
[02:12] ---
    It seems that all of her attendants,
    who were all in such low spirits,
[02:15] ---
    have been gathering
    there smiling!
[02:18] ---
    I guess their prayers
    have all been heard.
[02:36] ---
    Please eat more slowly!
[02:39] ---
    This is not enough!
[02:40] ---
    My chakra hasn't returned
    to normal!
[02:45] ---
    Bring me more food!
[02:47] ---
    If I'm not careful,
    I'll become an old hag!
[02:51] ---
    Uh-oh, no, no!
[02:54] ---
    The Hokage Quarters' supply stores
    have run out.
[02:58] ---
    I'll go and requisition
    more provisions,
[03:01] ---
    so please take a short break.
[03:12] ---
    No! Don't do it!
    What are you thinking?!
[03:15] ---
    This one is completely off limits!
[03:17] ---
    What are you talking about?
[03:19] ---
    Huh?
[03:22] ---
    K-Kakashi…
[03:25] ---
    I'm glad to see you so well.
[03:27] ---
    This is nothing,
    I'm just getting started.
[03:30] ---
    After all you've eaten,
    it doesn't make any sense.
[03:34] ---
    I am relieved.
[03:36] ---
    I was dangerously close
    to becoming the Hokage.
[03:40] ---
    But well, I'm not really
    the Hokage type.
[03:43] ---
    Considering the present situation,
    we need someone like you,
[03:45] ---
    Lady Tsunade, with wide influence,
    to be the Hokage.
[03:49] ---
    I must say I am amazed to hear
    about the Allied Shinobi Force.
[03:52] ---
    And I'm surprised that
[03:54] ---
    the Tsuchikage and the Raikage
    agreed to cooperate.
[03:57] ---
    That just goes to prove
[03:58] ---
    what an awful situation
    we are faced with.
[04:02] ---
    Madara Uchiha…
[04:05] ---
    He's really still alive?
[04:08] ---
    We don't have absolute proof,
[04:10] ---
    but considering what
    they are trying to do,
[04:12] ---
    I'd say there's no doubt about it.
[04:15] ---
    Another war, huh?
[04:17] ---
    Who would have thought
    the karma of the Uchiha
[04:19] ---
    would engulf all the shinobi
    in the world.
[04:26] ---
    I will call a meeting immediately
    after this meal!
[04:29] ---
    We must prepare for war!
[06:01] ---
    Prophecy of the Great Lord Elder
    
    
[06:07] ---
    You must rest for a while.
[06:10] ---
    It takes some time to become
    accustomed to the Mangekyo.
[06:14] ---
    Are you in pain?
[06:16] ---
    No.
[06:18] ---
    It feels right. I can feel
    Itachi's visual powers.
[06:23] ---
    I can feel myself getting stronger!
[06:31] ---
    INTEL DIVISION
    
    And then, Orochimaru forced me
    into hard labor.
[06:32] ---
    And then, Orochimaru forced me
    into hard labor.
[06:35] ---
    And when Sasuke took over
[06:37] ---
    he kept giving poor old me
    the most unreasonable demands.
[06:42] ---
    In the end, he treated me like dirt.
[06:47] ---
    I'm a victim too!
[06:51] ---
    I see. It must have been
    hard on you!
[06:55] ---
    Jeez…
[06:58] ---
    We're not asking about
    your personal history.
[07:01] ---
    We are asking for intel on
    the Akatsuki, Sasuke, and Kabuto.
[07:07] ---
    And don't get emotionally involved!
[07:09] ---
    What good will it do if
    you get swayed?
[07:11] ---
    F-Forgive me.
[07:14] ---
    All right. But only if you
    accept my conditions.
[07:19] ---
    Conditions?!
[07:21] ---
    First of all… I'm starving!
[07:24] ---
    If you interrogate someone,
[07:25] ---
    you're supposed to give 'em
    a fried pork cutlet bowl, right?!
[07:27] ---
    What do you mean
    "a fried pork cutlet bowl"?!
[07:29] ---
    I didn't think there was
    a fried pork cutlet bowl shop in the village.
[07:33] ---
    Even if there were,
[07:34] ---
    would it still be in business under
    these circumstances?
[07:37] ---
    I heard that Ichiraku has started up
    again in temporary quarters.
[07:42] ---
    Would ramen do?
[07:43] ---
    No way. It has to be
    a fried pork cutlet bowl.
[07:47] ---
    Then, shall we see if
    we can get delivery
[07:49] ---
    from outside the village?
[07:51] ---
    You can get a fried pork cutlet bowl
    from a noodle shop too, can't you?
[07:55] ---
    It would take about two days.
[07:57] ---
    Cripes! What a pair!
[08:00] ---
    – F-Forgive me.
    – F-Forgive me.
[08:06] ---
    They're alike.
[08:09] ---
    What is this?
[08:11] ---
    This village is cheerful…
    and warm.
[08:17] ---
    Just like him.
[08:20] ---
    Hey, Naruto!
    Haven't seen you for a while.
[08:23] ---
    Where were you?
[08:25] ---
    Well…umm…
    You see…umm…
[08:28] ---
    It gets lonely when
    you're not around.
[08:30] ---
    Your liveliness gives the whole village
    the energy to recover.
[08:37] ---
    Thank you, thank you.
[08:40] ---
    Oh, man…
[08:43] ---
    I saw that.
[08:44] ---
    Yeah.
[08:45] ---
    His head is getting big,
    I tell you.
[08:49] ---
    Just look at him smiling away.
    It's unpleasant.
[08:53] ---
    – This is a problem.
    – Thank you, thank you.
[08:55] ---
    We, the mass media,
    have created a terrible monster.
[08:59] ---
    If we don't take Naruto down
    a peg or two,
[09:02] ---
    the village is going to suffer.
[09:04] ---
    Yeah.
[09:05] ---
    I wonder where he's trying to go.
[09:08] ---
    Nowhere good, I'm sure.
[09:11] ---
    I've got it! We'll focus in
    on the decisive moment!
[09:14] ---
    – Yeah!
    – Yeah!
[09:18] ---
    Wait for me, my love!
    I've been waiting to see you!
[09:22] ---
    I was right!
[09:27] ---
    It's them again. Do they think
    I haven't noticed them?
[09:40] ---
    They're following me everywhere.
[09:50] ---
    Naruto…
[09:53] ---
    You're the village hero,
    Naruto, aren't you?
[09:57] ---
    Huh?
[09:58] ---
    No, I'm no hero.
[10:02] ---
    By the way,
    where are you headed, ey?
[10:05] ---
    "Ey"?!
[10:06] ---
    You're Konohamaru, aren't you?!
[10:08] ---
    I am not Konohamaru, ey!
[10:10] ---
    Don't lie!
[10:11] ---
    Why you—!
[10:14] ---
    What's the big idea?!
[10:19] ---
    In that case, I'll do this!
[10:21] ---
    Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu!
[10:27] ---
    You can't get away, ey!
[10:29] ---
    Harem Jutsu!
[10:31] ---
    – What?!
    – What?!
[10:32] ---
    I want a word
    with the village hero, ey!
[10:35] ---
    We got a tip that
    you have a sweetheart, ey!
[10:39] ---
    – Cripes!
    – Who is it, ey?
[10:41] ---
    Aren't you going on
    a date now, ey?
[10:55] ---
    The village hero, huh?
[10:59] ---
    But…
[11:02] ---
    Where are you going, ey?!
[11:13] ---
    That time, when Naruto stood up
    to Pain in order to protect me…
[11:18] ---
    the Nine-Tails appeared in Naruto's body.
[12:06] ---
    That's…
[12:12] ---
    Do you hate me?
[12:25] ---
    I could feel its intense anger,
[12:28] ---
    but I couldn't feel any
    of Naruto's will.
[12:34] ---
    It was like his anger had
    taken over his heart.
[12:39] ---
    All because of that Nine-Tails.
[12:48] ---
    Now that the First Hokage's necklace
[12:51] ---
    that Naruto received
    from Lady Tsunade is lost,
[12:53] ---
    if the Nine-Tails should
    ever run loose…
[12:57] ---
    even I couldn't stop it.
[13:04] ---
    True, it would be
    tremendously risky
[13:07] ---
    to take on the Akatsuki
    with the Nine-Tails inside him.
[13:13] ---
    But…
[13:14] ---
    – O-Oh no!
    – Wait up! Naruto, ey!
[13:18] ---
    He is Naruto.
[13:21] ---
    He's not the Nine-Tails.
[13:23] ---
    For this battle,
    we don't need the Nine-Tails.
[13:27] ---
    We need Naruto's strength.
[13:29] ---
    If it looks like the Nine-Tails
    is going to take over,
[13:32] ---
    we have to stop it.
[13:34] ---
    That's right.
[13:36] ---
    This is also a battle in which
[13:38] ---
    we must protect Naruto from
    the Akatsuki and the Nine-Tails.
[13:41] ---
    That's how I…no…
[13:43] ---
    I'm sure this is how
    all of my classmates feel.
[13:48] ---
    We will protect Naruto,
    and we will fight with Naruto.
[13:54] ---
    I wonder what Lady Tsunade thinks.
[14:09] ---
    Is everyone here?
[14:12] ---
    We shall now start our war council
    to discuss strategy!
[14:16] ---
    First, assemble reserves of
    ninja tools and foodstuffs.
[14:20] ---
    We must divide our shinobi into
    main battle units and support forces,
[14:24] ---
    and consider how we should
    build the platoons
[14:26] ---
    within the fighting forces!
[14:28] ---
    Bring me the complete list
    of all our shinobi!
[14:33] ---
    So it's war.
    So it's finally come to that.
[14:37] ---
    You were invited to this war council,
    but you're still young.
[14:41] ---
    Keep your ears open
    and don't miss a thing.
[14:43] ---
    Yeah. I know that.
[14:47] ---
    I will make full use of my head
    and hammer everything in!
[14:56] ---
    I guess I finally lost them.
[14:58] ---
    Now, finally, I can enjoy
    my love to the fullest!
[15:03] ---
    Old man! One large tonkotsu miso
    with BBQ pork!
[15:09] ---
    Naruto!
[15:11] ---
    Huh?!
[15:13] ---
    So Grandma Tsunade is fine now?
[15:17] ---
    Yes!
[15:18] ---
    All right!
[15:19] ---
    Is that right?
    I'm happy about Lady Tsunade.
[15:23] ---
    Okay! Since this is good news,
    the ramen is on me!
[15:25] ---
    Huh?! Are you sure?!
[15:27] ---
    Why don't you have some too, Sakura?
[15:29] ---
    No thanks.
    I still have more people to notify.
[15:34] ---
    Well, I'll see you later, Naruto!
[15:39] ---
    Now that that's off my mind,
    I feel hungrier than ever!
[15:43] ---
    Okay! I'm eating my fill today.
[15:47] ---
    One bowl, two bowls, three bowls!
[15:50] ---
    Here you go!
[15:51] ---
    It's a special tonkotsu miso
    with BBQ pork slices
[15:54] ---
    to celebrate the Hokage's recovery!
[15:55] ---
    Whoa!
[15:58] ---
    Thank you for the…
[16:01] ---
    Oh? He disappeared.
[16:03] ---
    …food!
[16:14] ---
    I'm surprised he dug right
    into the food.
[16:17] ---
    Looks like he really loves
    my bug cooking!
[16:31] ---
    What am I doing here again?
[16:35] ---
    I did a Reverse Summoning on you.
[16:37] ---
    The Great Lord Elder will
    divine your future, Naruto-boy.
[16:43] ---
    Divine?
[16:49] ---
    Follow me.
[16:54] ---
    Don't throw it up!
[17:04] ---
    I have brought him.
[17:06] ---
    Hey! Long time no see,
    Giant Gramps Sage!
[17:12] ---
    It was indeed I who
    summoned you…er…umm…
[17:20] ---
    Who're you again?
[17:24] ---
    Naruto Uzumaki!
[17:27] ---
    I wish you'd hurry up and
    learn my name, Giant Gramps Sage!
[17:32] ---
    Oh, that's right, that's right.
    It's Naruto.
[17:38] ---
    Do we have to go through
    this every time?
[17:42] ---
    Listen, Naruto.
[17:44] ---
    I have seen
    a prophecy involving you.
[17:47] ---
    A prophecy?
    Okay, I'm ready for it.
[17:52] ---
    In that case, listen carefully.
[17:57] ---
    You will soon be meeting
    an octopus.
[18:02] ---
    An octopus?
[18:07] ---
    Why an octopus?
[18:10] ---
    Well, I couldn't see too clearly,
[18:13] ---
    but I'm sure
    they were octopus arms.
[18:18] ---
    And then, it will come to pass that
[18:20] ---
    you will fight a young man
    whose power lies in his eyes.
[18:27] ---
    And…
[18:28] ---
    Yeah… I know.
[18:31] ---
    What do you mean, "you know"?
[18:37] ---
    I don't plan on changing.
[18:39] ---
    Nor am I interested
    in understanding you.
[18:42] ---
    And I don't plan on dying!
[18:44] ---
    You're the one
    who's going to die!
[18:48] ---
    If I die, we both die, Sasuke.
[18:57] ---
    Fine then!
[18:59] ---
    I'll kill you first.
[19:02] ---
    It's clear you still haven't
    acknowledged me yet.
[19:07] ---
    Enough, Naruto.
[19:09] ---
    I'll take Sasuke on.
[19:11] ---
    You have your precious dream
    of becoming the Hokage.
[19:14] ---
    I can't let Sasuke take
    you down with him.
[19:17] ---
    How can I become the Hokage
    if I can't even save one friend?!
[19:22] ---
    I'll fight…
[19:25] ---
    Sasuke!
[19:29] ---
    So you saw it?
[19:33] ---
    Yeah.
[19:34] ---
    That young man whose power
    lies in his eyes…
[19:37] ---
    Do you know who that is?!
[19:42] ---
    Yeah, and I've already
    made up my mind.
[19:50] ---
    Gerotora…
[19:51] ---
    I also saw a dream where
    you stored yourself inside Naruto.
[19:54] ---
    W-What?!
[19:57] ---
    Give him the Fourth Hokage's seal.
[20:03] ---
    I have no choice but to do
    as you say, Great Lord Elder.
[20:12] ---
    What is this?
[20:14] ---
    It is the key left by
    the Fourth Hokage
[20:16] ---
    that locks and unlocks
    the sealing jutsu on your belly!
[20:21] ---
    With this you can let
    the Nine-Tails run free,
[20:24] ---
    if that's what you want.
[20:29] ---
    Press on that square area
    with your hand.
[20:38] ---
    With this, you will have
    the means to perfect that jutsu
[20:42] ---
    that Jiraiya was talking about.
[20:46] ---
    The key to release…
[20:50] ---
    the Nine-Tails' seal.
[20:56] ---
    Are you unsure, Naruto?
[22:37] ---
    In battle, feelings of hatred
    can come out.
    
    
[22:41] ---
    So I thought I didn't want
    the Nine-Tails' power anymore.
    
    
[22:45] ---
    But I need the Nine-Tails' chakra
    to fight Sasuke.
    
    
[22:51] ---
    I can't hide from that forever.
    
    
[22:53] ---
    No use getting depressed!
    
    
[22:57] ---
    Next time on Naruto Shippuden:
    "Storage"
    
    
[23:01] ---
    I'm going to conquer
    this thing, Dad!
[23:05] ---
    Tune in again!
