[00:04] ---
    Oh, so you draw.
[00:08] ---
    I thought you were drawing
    a landscape since you're outside.
[00:11] ---
    But it's an abstract, isn't it?
[00:14] ---
    So do you have a title for it?
[00:18] ---
    Well…
[00:19] ---
    You haven't decided on one yet?
[00:21] ---
    I don't know.
[00:25] ---
    To be exact,
[00:26] ---
    I couldn't title one of my drawings
    even if I wanted to.
[00:31] ---
    Nothing comes to mind.
[00:33] ---
    I don't feel anything.
[00:38] ---
    Your drawing's...
[00:41] ---
    nothing special!
[00:44] ---
    You're right.
[00:46] ---
    Just like your "equipment."
[00:49] ---
    I'm going to be honest with you!
[00:51] ---
    I don't like you.
[00:53] ---
    If you've got a problem,
    just drop the fake smile
[00:55] ---
    and tell me straight to my face!
[00:57] ---
    I'll fight you anytime, anywhere!
[01:03] ---
    I don't have a problem with you.
[01:06] ---
    I don't care about you at all.
[01:43] ---
    Work on the central part of the city
    seems to be going smoothly.
[03:18] ---
    Sai's Day Off
    
    
[03:31] ---
    There's not enough help
    along the perimeter of the village.
[03:39] ---
    All right!
    Let's start the treasure hunt!
[03:42] ---
    – Yeah!
    – Yeah!
[03:48] ---
    Hello? Is there a lost doll in here?
[03:54] ---
    I'll take you back home with me.
[03:57] ---
    It's dangerous to play here.
[04:02] ---
    The rubble might fall and
    cause it to cave-in!
[04:13] ---
    I didn't mean to scare her.
[04:17] ---
    What happened?
[04:19] ---
    That man said...
[04:49] ---
    Wow! You're good!
[04:52] ---
    It's the children from earlier!
[04:55] ---
    Are you a manga artist?
[04:56] ---
    Or are you a painter?
[04:58] ---
    Or are you a wandering traveler?
[05:00] ---
    No, I'm not.
[05:02] ---
    Then what are you
    doing drawing here?
[05:06] ---
    I had the day off today,
[05:08] ---
    so I took a walk to see
    how things were going in the village.
[05:12] ---
    Hey, hey can you show us
    your other drawings?
[05:15] ---
    Well, my drawings are
    not for others to see.
[05:20] ---
    Oh no, I shouldn't have
    said it like that.
[05:33] ---
    I managed to fool them.
[05:35] ---
    Wait!
[05:37] ---
    I got you!
[05:39] ---
    Stay, stay. Don't move!
[05:45] ---
    My pants just ripped!
[05:47] ---
    Hey! You went home yesterday
    with torn clothes too.
[05:52] ---
    My dad says kids should be energetic and
    active enough to have stuff like that happen.
[05:56] ---
    Put yourself in
    your mom's place sometimes.
[05:58] ---
    She's the one who has to
    mend them day in and day out!
[06:01] ---
    Uh-uh, here we go again.
[06:03] ---
    Shut up, ugly!
[06:08] ---
    Who are you calling "ugly"?!
[06:12] ---
    – My mistake, my mistake!
    – Hey wait!
[06:18] ---
    Cha!
[06:20] ---
    Ouch!
[06:22] ---
    It's just like watching
    Naruto and Sakura.
[06:25] ---
    I'll teach you!
[06:27] ---
    Ouch!
[06:29] ---
    My head got hit!
[06:33] ---
    That's right. Sakura hit me
    hard like that too.
[06:40] ---
    I'm sorry.
[06:41] ---
    Please forgive Naruto.
[06:45] ---
    It's okay. It doesn't bother me.
[06:48] ---
    Really? Thank goodness.
[06:55] ---
    I don't care if
    you forgive me or not.
[06:59] ---
    You fooled me, with that
    fake smile of yours earlier.
[07:05] ---
    Although that was much
    too intense just for a joke.
[07:09] ---
    Are these your friends?
[07:11] ---
    Huh? Well no,
    I guess they're my comrades.
[07:16] ---
    Aren't comrades your friends?
[07:23] ---
    That's a difficult question.
[07:33] ---
    The bond that Naruto feels
    with Sasuke…
[07:37] ---
    Perhaps I've never experienced
    anything that strong.
[07:44] ---
    Sai, stay out of this.
[07:47] ---
    Naruto, you don't have to
    get punched for Sasuke's sake.
[07:53] ---
    Sasuke keeps hurting you
    over and over again.
[07:57] ---
    If I were you…
[07:59] ---
    I just felt I should do something,
    as a member of Team Kakashi.
[08:07] ---
    But because of that,
[08:09] ---
    I think I made things more painful
    for Naruto and Sakura.
[08:15] ---
    It's like Naruto has
    been shouldering
[08:17] ---
    the burden of his promise to you.
[08:19] ---
    As though he intends to bear
    that burden for the rest of his life.
[08:22] ---
    I don't know what you told Naruto.
[08:25] ---
    But it's no different from
    what was done to me.
[08:29] ---
    It's like a Curse Mark.
[08:32] ---
    Sasuke is the source of Naruto's agony.
[08:36] ---
    But aren't you a part of it too?
[08:45] ---
    Sasuke keeps getting farther
    and farther away from me.
[08:48] ---
    But Naruto,
[08:50] ---
    you've always stuck by my side
    and cheered me up.
[08:56] ---
    I finally realized, Naruto,
[09:00] ---
    your true self.
[09:05] ---
    Meanwhile, Sasuke keeps
    adding to his list of crimes,
[09:07] ---
    and breaking my heart.
[09:10] ---
    Continually becoming more
    of a stranger.
[09:14] ---
    But Naruto, I'm able to
    be close to you like this.
[09:18] ---
    You comfort me.
[09:21] ---
    I care about you,
    from the bottom of my heart.
[09:23] ---
    Cut it out, Sakura.
    This joke isn't funny at all!
[09:33] ---
    I hate people who lie
    to themselves!
[09:39] ---
    As a result, Sakura set out alone
    to settle things with Sasuke.
[09:45] ---
    After I told Naruto about
    Sakura's true intentions,
[09:48] ---
    he was in such turmoil,
    that he lost consciousness.
[09:54] ---
    If I had been a true friend,
[09:58] ---
    would I have handled it differently?
[10:03] ---
    I've never been here before.
[10:05] ---
    We need to gather
    more workers tomorrow.
[10:08] ---
    Wouldn't it be faster if we used
    Paper Bombs to clear everything?
[10:11] ---
    Idiot! If you do that,
    you'll blast away everything!
[10:14] ---
    – We can't do that!
    – Yeah, you're right.
[10:16] ---
    Oh, excuse us, fella.
[10:25] ---
    So the damage extends this far.
[10:41] ---
    How terrible.
[10:48] ---
    By chance, are you related to
    the family who lived here?
[10:52] ---
    No, I'm just passing through.
[10:56] ---
    Oh, pardon me.
    Well, I live next door.
[11:00] ---
    I was going to let you know
    if you were family,
[11:03] ---
    that they are staying at
    the evacuation shelter.
[11:07] ---
    I'm glad they're okay.
[11:10] ---
    Yes, although their house
    is totally ruined.
[11:14] ---
    I understand it's going to
    be demolished tomorrow.
[11:19] ---
    I see.
[11:23] ---
    They say all things eventually decay.
[11:28] ---
    But this is still so tragic.
[11:35] ---
    Everyone is gone,
[11:39] ---
    and I can feel the loneliness.
[11:46] ---
    Good evening.
[11:49] ---
    What are you doing?
[11:51] ---
    It's obvious just by looking
    that no one lives here.
[11:54] ---
    No, but I was thinking more
[11:56] ---
    along the lines of
    something else "living" here.
[12:02] ---
    Do you mean ghosts?
[12:04] ---
    That's ridiculous.
[12:06] ---
    Keep your opinions to yourself!
[12:08] ---
    Okay, okay.
    We'll be spending the night here.
[12:11] ---
    You are such an idiot!
[12:14] ---
    Sai.
[12:16] ---
    I need to talk to you.
[12:26] ---
    Sai, I want you to fight me seriously.
[12:28] ---
    And what good would that do?
[12:31] ---
    Just fight me and
    you'll understand.
[12:34] ---
    I'm aware of your strength
    without having to do that.
[12:38] ---
    Then try and dodge me!
[12:40] ---
    Shadow Clone Jutsu!
[12:44] ---
    Damn it.
[12:54] ---
    I see.
[12:56] ---
    He's trying to prevent me from
    using my Super Beast Scroll.
[13:05] ---
    Sorry, but I'm leaving right now.
[13:09] ---
    He's persistent.
[13:15] ---
    I have no choice
    but to settle this.
[13:25] ---
    Naruto, Sai!
[13:28] ---
    One minute you're both gone,
[13:30] ---
    and this is what I find
    you two doing?
[13:32] ---
    Really, how many times do you
    have to make me repeat myself?
[13:36] ---
    You started it, didn't you, Naruto?
[13:39] ---
    And Sai, don't accept
    a challenge so quickly.
[13:43] ---
    Anyway, I'd say this match…
[13:47] ---
    goes to Naruto!
[14:26] ---
    I misjudged you.
[14:28] ---
    I never thought that you'd transform
    into Captain Yamato.
[14:30] ---
    I didn't expect you to be so sly.
[14:35] ---
    You totally fooled me.
[14:40] ---
    All this time,
    I thought you were only capable
[14:43] ---
    of straightforward
    and direct combat.
[14:47] ---
    But don't think for a minute,
[14:50] ---
    that this kind of victory means
    you're stronger than I am.
[14:53] ---
    If you do, you're just being smug.
[14:55] ---
    It's not like that at all.
[15:00] ---
    Remember what Captain Yamato said.
[15:02] ---
    You and me, we're a team.
[15:06] ---
    When one moves,
    the partner backs him up.
[15:09] ---
    We have a buddy system.
[15:14] ---
    From now on,
    as we try to get Sasuke back,
[15:17] ---
    if an enemy appears
    and gets in our way,
[15:20] ---
    we need to know how
    we fight to be more effective.
[15:24] ---
    You're more level-headed than I am.
[15:27] ---
    You might figure out a way to
    make better use of my strengths.
[15:33] ---
    That was in the back of my mind.
[15:41] ---
    And then, if Sasuke returns,
[15:43] ---
    I'll be able to leave
    Team Kakashi, right?
[15:47] ---
    Yeah, I can't wait.
[15:54] ---
    Naruto firmly believed that
    he would bring Sasuke back.
[15:58] ---
    And after working together,
[16:00] ---
    I started to feel the depth
    of his conviction.
[16:05] ---
    But as for Sasuke…
[16:10] ---
    How do you do?
    My name is Sai.
[16:14] ---
    So you're Sasuke Uchiha?
[16:15] ---
    Get lost.
[16:24] ---
    Sasuke!
[16:27] ---
    Such cold, frightening eyes.
[16:31] ---
    And deep within, that coldness
    was like a smoldering fire.
[16:39] ---
    Naruto must have seen
    those eyes too.
[16:49] ---
    All the time you wasted
    pursuing me
[16:52] ---
    might have been
    better spent training,
[16:55] ---
    right, Naruto?
[16:59] ---
    That's why this time around,
[17:01] ---
    my whim is telling me that
    you'll lose your life.
[17:12] ---
    When I saw those eyes,
[17:13] ---
    I knew that no words
    could reach Sasuke.
[17:18] ---
    But Naruto's feelings
    didn't change at all.
[17:27] ---
    I used to really hate Sasuke.
[17:31] ---
    But it was actually fun being with him.
[17:36] ---
    He's the only person who
    acknowledged me,
[17:39] ---
    more than anyone else.
[17:43] ---
    Sasuke is my friend.
[17:46] ---
    It's a special bond
    I was finally able to make.
[17:50] ---
    Even so, with Orochimaru
    as your opponent…
[17:53] ---
    If my arms get ripped off,
    I'll kick him down.
[17:56] ---
    If my legs get ripped off,
    I'll bite him down.
[17:59] ---
    If my head gets ripped off,
    I'll stare him down.
[18:02] ---
    If my eyes get gouged out,
    I'll curse him out.
[18:06] ---
    Even if I get chopped up
    into pieces,
[18:08] ---
    I'll take Sasuke back
    from Orochimaru!
[18:13] ---
    Until then, I lived in a world
    filled with lies and betrayal.
[18:17] ---
    Naruto made me remember
[18:18] ---
    how important it is to
    have faith in people.
[18:24] ---
    I wanted to see just
    how strong this bond is.
[18:27] ---
    So I withdrew from
    my mission and
[18:28] ---
    made up my mind to
    bring Sasuke back.
[18:36] ---
    And here I am today,
    still a member of Team Kakashi.
[18:42] ---
    Please don't mention Naruto's actions
    when you report to the Hokage.
[18:47] ---
    Say there's no movement yet.
[18:49] ---
    It seems you still do not trust me.
[18:54] ---
    You work under Danzo
[18:56] ---
    and your job is to keep
    an eye on Naruto.
[18:58] ---
    However, you are also
    a member of my Team 7.
[19:04] ---
    So I do believe in you.
[19:08] ---
    What is this feeling?
[19:15] ---
    Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura.
[19:18] ---
    I don't know what
    the future holds,
[19:20] ---
    but I have a feeling that those
    three share a bond so strong
[19:24] ---
    that no one will be able to break it.
[19:27] ---
    And some day, I will too.
[19:34] ---
    You really are like him.
[19:40] ---
    My older brother.
[19:42] ---
    He was talkative and
    he would lose his temper.
[19:45] ---
    He had no manners
    and his "equipment" was…
[19:48] ---
    Well, never mind.
[19:51] ---
    But, just like you, he put all
    he had in everything he did.
[19:57] ---
    When I look at you,
    I kind of remember him.
[20:13] ---
    Is that?
[20:14] ---
    I remember.
[20:16] ---
    I remember!
[20:27] ---
    This is what I wanted to show him.
[20:31] ---
    The picture of our dreams.
[22:37] ---
    Well, well. Just as I expected.
    That was perfect teamwork.
    
    
[22:41] ---
    Aren't you…
    
    
[22:42] ---
    You're Kosuke, right?
    
    
[22:44] ---
    Who is this again?
    
    
[22:46] ---
    He's been a genin for fifty years.
    
    
[22:48] ---
    He's Kosuke, also known
    as the Eternal Genin.
    
    
[22:50] ---
    We've met him before.
    
    
[22:52] ---
    That's right!
    
    
[22:54] ---
    I was much obliged
    to you back then!
    
    
[22:57] ---
    Next time on Naruto Shippuden:
    "The Legendary Ino-Shika-Cho"
    
    
[23:00] ---
    I want to ask you something.
    
    
[23:04] ---
    Tune in again!
