[00:10] ---
    Where'd he go?
[00:25] ---
    I'm adapting to the power.
[00:30] ---
    It feels good. This isn't bad.
[00:33] ---
    I think I'll stir things up a little.
[02:07] ---
    Storage
    
    
[02:14] ---
    What are you waiting for?
[02:15] ---
    Press the Storing Square!
[02:20] ---
    You’re unsure, right, Naruto?
[02:23] ---
    I can’t say that I blame you.
[02:25] ---
    What do you mean?
[02:27] ---
    Lord Fukasaku…
[02:28] ---
    The Nine Tails gets its power
    by merging its chakra with its will.
[02:35] ---
    CHAKRA
    WILL
    
    
    
    To control this power,
[02:37] ---
    CHAKRA
    WILL
    
    
    
    
    you must isolate
    only the Nine Tails' chakra,
[02:40] ---
    CHAKRA
    WILL
    
    
    
    
    assimilate it into your own chakra
    and make it your own power.
[02:44] ---
    But it's easier said than done.
[02:48] ---
    If you pull out the Nine Tails' chakra,
    you also draw out its will.
[02:53] ---
    The Nine Tails' will is a mass of hatred
    that binds itself tightly to chakra.
[02:59] ---
    No matter how hard you try
    to shield yourself,
[03:02] ---
    it will find some hatred that
    you have buried deep inside
[03:05] ---
    and it will try to overtake you.
[03:09] ---
    In other words,
[03:11] ---
    CHAKRA
    WILL
    
    
    
    
    controlling the Nine Tails' power
    means taking its will and its chakra
[03:17] ---
    and completely separating the two
    with your own strong will
[03:21] ---
    which should harbor no hatred.
[03:27] ---
    The Fourth Hokage made
    the Nine Tails' seal in a way
[03:30] ---
    that allows a small amount of its chakra
    to leak out of the cage
[03:33] ---
    in hopes that it would naturally
    become one with Naruto’s own chakra.
[03:38] ---
    It is known as the Eight Trigram
    Sealing Formula and
[03:40] ---
    it creates a double-interface
    Tetragram Seal.
[03:44] ---
    But if this key is used to
    open the Tetragram Seal,
[03:46] ---
    you could pull out all of
    the Nine Tails’ chakra!
[03:50] ---
    And that means all of
    the Nine Tails' will
[03:52] ---
    would tag along with all
    of its chakra!
[03:56] ---
    And as soon as Naruto’s will
    loses to the Nine Tails’ will….
[04:00] ---
    The Nine Tails will be
    completely resurrected!
[04:04] ---
    How terrible.
[04:07] ---
    And has the key ever been used?
[04:12] ---
    A while ago, the Tetragram Seal
    was weakening.
[04:16] ---
    So in order to control Naruto,
[04:18] ---
    who was starting to transform into
    the Nine Tails during training,
[04:20] ---
    Jiraiya used the key to
    tighten the seal on him.
[04:36] ---
    This should hold for a while.
[04:40] ---
    Just a while, huh?
[04:54] ---
    What's the matter, Pervy Sage?
[04:58] ---
    Jiraiya was greatly concerned.
[05:00] ---
    If the Fourth Hokage's Sealing Formula
    was beginning to weaken,
[05:05] ---
    there was no telling when Naruto would
    transform into the Nine Tails again.
[05:12] ---
    I guess I'll try it.
[05:15] ---
    Huh?!
[05:23] ---
    A toad came out of your mouth!
[05:26] ---
    Don't be so hard on me, Jiraiya!
[05:29] ---
    You just summoned me
    a while ago.

[05:32] ---
    I need a favor.
    Will you hear me out, Gerotora?

[05:37] ---
    It's Naruto's Tetragram Seal.
[05:40] ---
    Hey hey… You just tightened the seal.
[05:43] ---
    Do you want it tighter?
[05:45] ---
    No, the reverse.
[05:49] ---
    I want to loosen it just a little bit.
[05:52] ---
    Wha—?!
[05:53] ---
    Jiraiya wanted the seal to be opened
    deliberately for just a short while
[05:57] ---
    in order to drill Naruto into developing
    the power to resist the Nine Tails' will.
[06:03] ---
    But it didn't work.
[06:05] ---
    I didn't mean to hurt Pervy Sage.
[06:21] ---
    What? Giving up already.
[06:27] ---
    This training…is impossible.
[06:32] ---
    I'm disappointed in you.
    Calling it quits so soon.

[06:37] ---
    Remember when I told you that
    you reminded me of the Fourth Hokage?

[06:43] ---
    You are the shinobi who
    inherited the Rasengan,

[06:45] ---
    the jutsu developed by
    the Fourth Hokage himself.

[06:47] ---
    You need to shape up!
[06:51] ---
    You don’t know how happy I was
[06:53] ---
    when I learned the Rasengan,
    the Fourth Hokage's jutsu.

[06:59] ---
    I had taken over the
    Fourth Hokage's jutsu,

[07:02] ---
    which was my dream…my goal.
[07:08] ---
    But…
[07:11] ---
    Compared to the time when
    I was learning the Rasengan,

[07:13] ---
    this training means nothing.
[07:19] ---
    I guess mastering the Rasengan
    was a miracle for you.

[07:25] ---
    Maybe I was expecting too much.
[07:28] ---
    Sure, I know what a great shinobi
    the Fourth Hokage was.

[07:34] ---
    That’s for sure.
[07:35] ---
    He's totally different than
    someone like you,

[07:38] ---
    who gets so excited about
    mastering one measly jutsu.

[07:43] ---
    Unlike you, my foolish apprentice,
    he was a true prodigy.

[07:48] ---
    And the jutsu he developed
    was extraordinary.

[07:52] ---
    Even I couldn't grasp the ninjutsu
    he developed.

[07:56] ---
    Even you, Pervy Sage?
[08:00] ---
    And not even the successive Hokage.
[08:04] ---
    His jutsu was that extraordinary?
[08:07] ---
    I knew it.
    Becoming the Hokage is impossible.

[08:16] ---
    But there is just one shinobi
[08:19] ---
    with the potential to master
    such an extraordinary jutsu.

[08:25] ---
    That is you, Naruto!
[08:28] ---
    Me?
[08:30] ---
    Yes.
[08:31] ---
    You possess the Nine Tails' chakra
    and only you can master that jutsu.

[08:36] ---
    A jutsu that only I can grasp?
[08:39] ---
    Is that…
[08:41] ---
    That's right.
[08:42] ---
    The Fourth Hokage left it
    solely for your sake.

[08:45] ---
    It is his legacy to you.
[08:49] ---
    The Fourth Hokage's legacy?
[08:57] ---
    And it's just for me?
[09:00] ---
    Naruto!
[09:01] ---
    Will you undergo training to gain
    mastery over your chakra control?

[09:08] ---
    Yes!
[09:25] ---
    The harder I try to become strong,
[09:27] ---
    the tighter the grip of
    the Nine Tails' will becomes.
[09:31] ---
    He totally ignores my will and
    tries to hurt everyone in my path.
[09:36] ---
    That was the result of opening
    Naruto's key just a tiny bit.
[09:41] ---
    So that's the reason for the scar
    on Jiraiya-boy’s chest.
[09:46] ---
    And then what happened?
[09:49] ---
    Nothing good.
[09:51] ---
    Long ago, when I fought Orochimaru,
[09:54] ---
    I relied on the Nine Tails' power
    and relinquished my will.
[10:02] ---
    Don’t talk about Sasuke,
    in front of me,

[10:06] ---
    like he belongs to you!
[10:33] ---
    Hearing about Sasuke made me angry.
[10:37] ---
    Before I knew it, I lost myself.
[10:47] ---
    Captain Yamato told me not
    to rely on the Nine Tails' chakra
[10:51] ---
    and to use my own strength
    to fight.
[11:03] ---
    Everything is fine during training
    with Captain Yamato,
[11:06] ---
    since he can restrain Jinchuriki.
[11:10] ---
    But during a fight,
    feelings of hate are bound to creep up.
[11:16] ---
    So I figured, I’d forget about
    using the Nine Tails' power.
[11:20] ---
    If I can't suppress
    the Nine Tails' will with my own…
[11:24] ---
    I don't need a power
    that hurts people
[11:27] ---
    like the Pervy Sage and Sakura.
[11:29] ---
    I had my mind made up.
[11:32] ---
    But…
[11:35] ---
    When Hinata got hurt by Pain…
[11:41] ---
    I was so mad and bitter.
[11:44] ---
    Rather than not using it…
[11:47] ---
    My heart latched onto
    the Nine Tails' will on its own.
[11:57] ---
    Right now, I feel safe, since
    Fourth Hokage's seal has been tightened.
[12:06] ---
    But it might act up again at anytime.
[12:09] ---
    Yet in order to fight Sasuke,
[12:11] ---
    I have to use
    the Nine Tails' chakra.
[12:15] ---
    I'm the Nine Tails' Jinchuriki, after all.
[12:19] ---
    I can't hide from that forever.
[12:22] ---
    I sealed half of the Nine Tails' chakra
    inside of you,

[12:26] ---
    because I believed
    you could control its power.

[12:30] ---
    Right, Dad?
[12:33] ---
    Hurting my friends…
[12:36] ---
    Giving in to hatred…
[12:49] ---
    It's no use getting hesitant.
[12:54] ---
    I understand now just how dangerous
    it is to release the Nine Tails' chakra.

[13:01] ---
    But he has the Fourth Hokage's love
[13:03] ---
    and that sheer gutsiness
    that Jiraiya instilled in him.

[13:10] ---
    Contract complete.
    I'm going into storage!
[13:13] ---
    Huh? Going into storage?
[13:16] ---
    You don't need to do a thing.
    Just keep your mouth open.
[13:22] ---
    Mouth?
[13:23] ---
    Yes. Now say “ahh.”
[13:27] ---
    Wider.
[13:31] ---
    Here I go…into storage.
[13:36] ---
    Hey! Open wider!
[13:39] ---
    Are you going to let me go
    into storage?!
[13:42] ---
    Why through my mouth?!
[13:43] ---
    It's slimy and feels awful.
[13:53] ---
    Okay, storage complete!
[13:55] ---
    I'm taking you back to
    Hidden Leaf Village!
[13:58] ---
    After that, we'll have to
    look for the octopus.
[14:01] ---
    Oh, right… You prophesied that
    I would encounter an octopus.
[14:07] ---
    Where is this octopus?
    Can't you give more clues?
[14:10] ---
    It’s not clear,
    but it's a solitary island.
[14:13] ---
    People don't go near it.
[14:14] ---
    It's like a paradise for creatures.
[14:16] ---
    To me, it seems it would be
    a fun resort.
[14:25] ---
    And there, the octopus should be
    of help to you.
[14:30] ---
    In any case, you will find your way.
[14:33] ---
    Right!
[14:41] ---
    There’s no mistake,
    it’s Kabuto’s doing.
[14:44] ---
    This method of killing…
[14:46] ---
    Kabuto is becoming more
    like Orochimaru.
[14:51] ---
    But why would he leave
    a trail like this?
[14:55] ---
    He would…
[14:56] ---
    Is this deliberate?
[14:59] ---
    What does he intend to do?
[15:01] ---
    No doubt Kabuto is carrying
    on Orochimaru's will.
[15:05] ---
    Now, is he going after
    the Hidden Leaf or the Akatsuki?
[15:11] ---
    Let’s start with the greetings,
    shall we, Tobi?
[15:14] ---
    No…
[15:16] ---
    You call yourself Madara now.
[15:19] ---
    You did well to find this place.
[15:22] ---
    I roamed from country to country as a spy
[15:25] ---
    and I once belonged to the Akatsuki.
[15:27] ---
    Don't underestimate my intel network.
[15:30] ---
    You were once one of Sasori's spies.
[15:33] ---
    You are a traitor to the Akatsuki.
[15:45] ---
    This is…
[16:02] ---
    Reanimation Jutsu.
[16:05] ---
    The Forbidden Jutsu known only to
    the Second Hokage and Lord Orochimaru.
[16:09] ---
    Now, I'm the third one.
[16:12] ---
    And I have surpassed
    the previous two.
[16:16] ---
    This performance is dedicated to you.
[16:18] ---
    So that you would believe
    in my power and trust in me.
[16:22] ---
    Rest assured.
[16:24] ---
    I did not come here to fight.
[16:27] ---
    What do you want?
[16:29] ---
    I want us to join forces.
[16:33] ---
    Join forces?
[16:36] ---
    How will that benefit me?
[16:39] ---
    I understand you intend
    to start a war soon.
[16:42] ---
    I'm offering to provide
    more military might.
[16:46] ---
    With these here…
[16:48] ---
    Itachi.
[16:50] ---
    Sasori.
[16:52] ---
    Deidara.
[16:54] ---
    Kakuzu.
[16:56] ---
    And Nagato.
[16:58] ---
    They each have formidable strength.
[17:00] ---
    And I have even more up my sleeve.
[17:06] ---
    And in exchange?
[17:07] ---
    Sasuke Uchiha.
[17:14] ---
    What are you plotting?
[17:16] ---
    Nothing really.
[17:19] ---
    I am only interested in
    the pure truth behind ninjutsu.
[17:23] ---
    And I need Sasuke
    to pursue this.
[17:28] ---
    I need a young, live,
    sensitive Uchiha.
[17:32] ---
    And if I refuse?
[17:36] ---
    Summoning Jutsu: Reanimation.
[17:50] ---
    Th-This is…
[17:53] ---
    Surely, you didn't think that
    I would come unprepared.
[17:58] ---
    Yes. You can’t refuse.
[18:00] ---
    Why you…
[18:02] ---
    Where did you get that?
[18:04] ---
    I have my means.
[18:07] ---
    Don't worry. I haven't told
    anyone about this.
[18:19] ---
    What's so funny?
[18:21] ---
    Kabuto Yakushi.
[18:23] ---
    Never did I imagine that
    you would come this far.
[18:29] ---
    Arguing with you now will
    only weaken our side.
[18:33] ---
    You came here,
    waiting for the perfect opportunity.
[18:36] ---
    You are very careful indeed.
[18:38] ---
    What do you mean?
[18:40] ---
    So be it.
    We will join forces with you.
[18:43] ---
    But only on the condition that
    I hand Sasuke over to you
[18:46] ---
    after victory in this war is assured.
[18:48] ---
    You will not be allowed to
    see Sasuke until then.
[18:51] ---
    You understand things clearly.
[18:54] ---
    I expected no less
    from Madara Uchiha.
[18:56] ---
    Your vessel is unique.
[18:58] ---
    And you are insolent.
[19:01] ---
    I’ll reformulate my strategy after
    I confirm your battle strength.
[19:05] ---
    Follow me.
[19:21] ---
    He brought corpses all the way
    to this desolate place?
[19:24] ---
    Judging from the way
    the shinobi's bodies are strewn about,
[19:26] ---
    I'll bet there's something up ahead.
[19:29] ---
    I originally thought we'd pursue him
    by way of Hidden Waterfall,
[19:31] ---
    and back to Hidden Leaf Village.
[19:36] ---
    But it's like he wants us
    to follow him.

[19:41] ---
    I don't get it.
[19:42] ---
    Is it a trap then?
[19:44] ---
    What do we do?
[19:47] ---
    Tokuma! Use your Byakugan
    towards two o'clock!
[19:49] ---
    Right!
[19:51] ---
    Byakugan!
[20:06] ---
    Captain Mitarashi! This is…
[20:08] ---
    What's the matter?
[20:09] ---
    It's not just Kabuto!
[20:11] ---
    He's with a masked member
    of the Akatsuki!
[20:13] ---
    The two of them are going through
    some kind of underground entrance!
[20:16] ---
    What?!
[20:18] ---
    A masked man?
[20:19] ---
    Is it the one who calls
    himself Madara?
[20:23] ---
    Does this mean
    we found his hideout?
[20:26] ---
    What is he doing with Kabuto?
[20:28] ---
    Have they joined forces?
[20:30] ---
    Did Kabuto purposely lure us here?
[20:34] ---
    In order to show us
    Madara's hideout?
[20:37] ---
    But why? If they’ve joined forces…
[20:41] ---
    I don't know yet.
[20:44] ---
    But we need to send word to
    the village immediately!
[22:37] ---
    Hide them? Naruto and Bee can
    lend much strength to this battle.
    
    
[22:40] ---
    Why hide them away?
    
    
[22:42] ---
    The Five Great Nations
    joined together and
    
    
[22:44] ---
    our aim in this war is to
    protect those two.
    
    
[22:47] ---
    Your sole dissent as Hokage
    is not sufficient.
    
    
[22:49] ---
    We will decide this with
    majority rule.
    
    
[22:51] ---
    You child! Naruto is—
    
    
[22:53] ---
    I know him quite well.
    
    
[22:56] ---
    Next time on Naruto Shippuden:
    "The Five Kage's Decision"
    
    
[23:01] ---
    It’s fine!
[23:05] ---
    Tune in again!
