[00:06] ---
    Damn it!
[00:07] ---
    He's so insensitive!
[00:10] ---
    Hey, come on.
[00:11] ---
    Should you be fighting
    with your dad
[00:13] ---
    when the Great Ninja War's
    about to start?
[00:17] ---
    But…
[00:21] ---
    I'm coming in, Ino.
[00:26] ---
    You're so stupid, Dad!
[00:34] ---
    So, what do you want?
[00:37] ---
    Well, you seem so
    preoccupied lately.
[00:41] ---
    So I was wondering…
[00:43] ---
    if you wanted to,
    you could talk to me.
[00:46] ---
    There's nothing.
[00:50] ---
    I'm not completely clueless
    to what you're going through.
[00:53] ---
    You're a young woman now.
[00:55] ---
    What's that supposed to mean?
[00:57] ---
    So which one did you pick?
[01:00] ---
    So is it Shikamaru or Choji?
[01:03] ---
    Who did you decide
    to go out with?
[01:07] ---
    Why should I go out
    with you guys?
[01:10] ---
    And most of all,
[01:12] ---
    he has the nerve to enter
    a lady's room without knocking first!
[01:15] ---
    Hey, why are you
    taking it out on us?
[01:20] ---
    Calm down.
[01:21] ---
    Inoichi is just worried about you.
[01:24] ---
    Remember,
    you did cry a lot over Sasuke.
[01:30] ---
    So he's not far off the mark.
[01:41] ---
    That's because it
    happened so suddenly.
[01:44] ---
    Besides, worrying about Sasuke
    isn't going to do any good.
[01:49] ---
    I've decided to leave it
    to Sakura and her team.
[01:52] ---
    Well, it seems Ino's over it.
[01:56] ---
    With war looming,
[01:57] ---
    *our teamwork would have suffered
    if she wasn't focused.
[02:00] ---
    I guess Ino's going to be okay.
[02:04] ---
    Hey, Choji, are you…
[02:05] ---
    You're to blame!
[02:07] ---
    You started it!
[02:09] ---
    H-Hey!
[02:11] ---
    You're the one who
    complained first!
[02:13] ---
    Stop it!
    Just what is going on here?
[02:17] ---
    Stay out of this, you fat—
[02:21] ---
    My body is moving on its own!
[02:29] ---
    Shadow Possession Jutsu
    complete.
[02:32] ---
    You shouldn't be fighting
[02:33] ---
    when the village is in
    the situation that it is…
[02:36] ---
    But he…
[02:38] ---
    No "buts"!
[02:39] ---
    You'll never be popular
    with the girls
[02:41] ---
    if you argue over small things.
[02:45] ---
    – O-Okay.
    – O-Okay.
[02:47] ---
    Now go over there
    and play nicely.
[02:50] ---
    – Okay.
    – Okay.
[02:55] ---
    As usual,
    that was perfect teamwork.
[03:00] ---
    Aren't you?
[03:03] ---
    Umm…who is he?
[03:06] ---
    Kosuke, right?
[03:09] ---
    He's been a genin for fifty years.
[03:11] ---
    Kosuke is also known as
    the Hidden Leaf's strongest genin.
[03:15] ---
    We've met him before.
[03:17] ---
    Really?
[03:19] ---
    Oh yeah!
    When we were still genin.
[03:22] ---
    Yes. I was much obliged
    to you back then!
[04:57] ---
    The Legendary
    Ino-Shika-Cho Trio
    
    
[05:03] ---
    If this Intel will spare
    my comrades in the village from danger
[05:07] ---
    I will gladly give up my life.
[05:09] ---
    I must do everything I can
[05:11] ---
    to deliver this scroll
    to the Hidden Leaf.
[05:15] ---
    I won't let you escape!
[05:25] ---
    No one has ever escaped
    the clutches of the three brothers.
[05:29] ---
    We won't let you get away.
[05:31] ---
    Big Brother,
    aren't we going after him?
[05:34] ---
    What an interesting old man.
[05:36] ---
    Iwaji, Iwazo…
[05:38] ---
    That's just a Substitution.
[05:45] ---
    He has sharp eyes.
[05:47] ---
    Don't underestimate me,
    old man.
[05:49] ---
    He's fast too.
[05:52] ---
    We won't let you go!
[05:53] ---
    Earth Style: Earth Hold!
[05:58] ---
    I said, we won't let you escape!
[06:00] ---
    He has considerable strength too.
[06:03] ---
    You're wasting my time, old man!
[06:06] ---
    Trying to steal Intel from
    the three of us, huh?
[06:10] ---
    Well, we'll return the favor
[06:11] ---
    and make you tell us
    everything about your village.
[06:15] ---
    My enemy has
    no vulnerabilities.
[06:17] ---
    I guess my life will end
    on this moonlit night.
[06:27] ---
    Reinforcements?
[06:39] ---
    What is that?!
[06:42] ---
    My body just…
[06:49] ---
    Shadow Possession Jutsu…
    complete!
[06:52] ---
    Ino!
[06:54] ---
    Mind Transfer Jutsu!
[06:56] ---
    Hey! This is not the time
    to joke around.
[07:04] ---
    You men have some nerve
[07:06] ---
    attacking our comrade
    from the Hidden Leaf!
[07:08] ---
    "You men?"
[07:13] ---
    Well, it's payback time!
[07:17] ---
    Are you turning on us,
    Big Brother?
[07:18] ---
    You too?!
[07:20] ---
    Get ready!
[07:25] ---
    O-Oh, if it isn't…
[07:28] ---
    It's over.
[07:31] ---
    You can release your jutsu, Ino.
[07:36] ---
    What the hell is going on?
[07:38] ---
    This is the Hidden Leaf's Secret
    coordinated ninjutsu formation…
[07:43] ---
    Ino-Shika-Cho!
[07:51] ---
    All right! Mission accomplished!
[07:54] ---
    Your formation today
    was spot on, guys!
[07:57] ---
    Your training is paying off.
[08:07] ---
    Are you all right?
[08:09] ---
    Whatever the reason,
[08:11] ---
    going off on a solo mission
    is too reckless.
[08:13] ---
    I never expected to be rescued twice
    by the Ino-Shika-Cho formation.
[08:24] ---
    That's right.
[08:25] ---
    You're Kosuke, the person we
    rescued back when we were genin.
[08:28] ---
    Yes. I'm very happy
    you remembered.
[08:32] ---
    I just remembered too, but…
[08:35] ---
    You said something
    interesting back then.
[08:41] ---
    You said you had been saved twice
    by Ino-Shika-Cho's formation.
[08:45] ---
    Did we rescue him twice?
[08:47] ---
    I'm not sure.
[08:53] ---
    My life was saved twice
    by Ino-Shika-Cho.
[09:03] ---
    Yes.
[09:04] ---
    It was the day before the destruction
    of the Hidden Leaf Village.
[09:09] ---
    It was late at night,
[09:11] ---
    but the village was
    abuzz with excitement
[09:12] ---
    for the next day's festivities.
[09:24] ---
    That smells delicious, Kosuke.
[09:27] ---
    Am I intruding?
[09:31] ---
    If you don't mind a hotpot stew
    made by an old man,
[09:33] ---
    please join me, Lord Third.
[09:37] ---
    With pleasure.
[09:40] ---
    Tomorrow is the main portion
    of the Chunin Exam.
[09:44] ---
    Yes, that's right.
[09:59] ---
    It's so delicious!
[10:03] ---
    I'm only good at things like this.
[10:06] ---
    What are you saying?
[10:08] ---
    The only enjoyable part of a mission
    is sitting down to eat.
[10:15] ---
    Many specifically request you
    to be on their team.
[10:23] ---
    No matter how risky the mission,
    if you so order me…
[10:30] ---
    Do not take your life so lightly.
[10:35] ---
    Thank you for the food.
[10:38] ---
    It was mighty delicious.
[10:42] ---
    By the way, Kosuke…
[10:45] ---
    Will you accept one mission?
[10:49] ---
    The Chunin Exam is
    an opportunity to check
[10:51] ---
    the power balance
    between the villages,
[10:54] ---
    so some mutual distrust
    is to be expected.
[11:00] ---
    But I just feel so uneasy this time.
[11:04] ---
    Hopefully,
    it's just my imagination.
[11:18] ---
    A message from
    the Third Hokage?
[11:20] ---
    Choza!
[11:21] ---
    Not so loud!
[11:23] ---
    S-Sorry!
[11:28] ---
    So what did Lord Hokage say?
[11:30] ---
    It is too early in the season for
    the leaves to be dancing in the air.
[11:33] ---
    He said you would understand.
[11:38] ---
    Message received.
[11:46] ---
    A special code
    between Sarutobi Clan
[11:48] ---
    and their three houses, huh?
[11:52] ---
    Impossible?!
[12:16] ---
    Leaf Ninja Art!
[12:26] ---
    Yanagi!
[12:29] ---
    Which enemy
    infiltrated the village?
[12:37] ---
    Expansion Jutsu!
[12:47] ---
    M-My body…
[12:50] ---
    Is this your first encounter with
    the Hidden Leaf's Secret…
[12:53] ---
    Shadow Paralysis Jutsu?
[12:56] ---
    Then take this one too!
[12:58] ---
    The Hidden Leaf's Secret…
[13:00] ---
    Shadow Strangle Jutsu!
[13:05] ---
    Mind Destruction Jutsu.
[13:09] ---
    Stop! What's wrong?!
[13:12] ---
    I can't control my body!
[13:18] ---
    This brings back old memories!
[13:20] ---
    It's a reunion of
    the Ino-Shika-Cho Trio.
[13:24] ---
    I am also a shinobi
    of the Hidden Leaf.
[13:26] ---
    I may not be skilled,
[13:27] ---
    but I will gladly give up my life
    for the sake of the village.
[13:36] ---
    I won't allow you to ravage
    the Hidden Leaf Village any further!
[13:39] ---
    I will sacrifice this old body,
[13:40] ---
    and take as many fools
    as I can with me!
[13:45] ---
    Kosuke…
[13:47] ---
    He charged right into the enemy.
[13:50] ---
    Are you going to
    let him go, Shikaku?
[13:51] ---
    Let's do it!
[13:53] ---
    You mean,
    the Ino-Shika-Cho Formation?
[13:55] ---
    I hope you haven't forgotten it.
[13:59] ---
    If I forgot it,
[14:00] ---
    I don't deserve to wear the earring that
    represents our oath of brotherhood!
[14:04] ---
    That's true.
[14:06] ---
    Let's do it!
[14:07] ---
    All right!
[14:28] ---
    You always make
    good shadows for me.
[14:42] ---
    Ten…twenty…
[14:46] ---
    Thirty-three…
[14:50] ---
    Shadow Stitching Jutsu!
[15:08] ---
    Black Spider Lily!
[15:10] ---
    Deliver the finishing blow.
[15:12] ---
    Mind Destruction Dance Jutsu!
[15:21] ---
    Damn it.
[15:22] ---
    I never want to face
    you guys in a fight.
[15:26] ---
    Oh, that's right.
[15:31] ---
    Are you all right, Kosuke?
[15:40] ---
    Now then…
[15:41] ---
    Let's move on to the next area!
[15:43] ---
    Shikaku, Inoichi.
[15:52] ---
    As expected of the Hidden Leaf's
    most powerful
[15:54] ---
    Secret Ninjutsu Formation,
    Ino-Shika-Cho!
[15:57] ---
    Uh-huh!
[15:59] ---
    Ino…Shika…Cho…
[16:02] ---
    Mind Destruction Jutsu!
[16:10] ---
    Shadow Paralysis Jutsu!
[16:18] ---
    Expansion Jutsu!
[16:40] ---
    The way you battle
    has such depth.
[16:43] ---
    You overwhelm your opponents while
    instilling courage in your comrades.
[16:47] ---
    A splendid formation that transforms
    your comrades' fears into bravery.
[16:51] ---
    The power of your experience,
    judgment and most of all, your faith
[16:55] ---
    is magnificent!
[17:00] ---
    It's nothing like that, Kosuke.
[17:03] ---
    We're just stuck with each other,
    whether we like it or not.
[17:05] ---
    Yeah, yeah. Don't tell anyone.
[17:08] ---
    We just don't want to look bad
    in the front of our kids
[17:11] ---
    since we all live in
    the same village. Right?
[17:18] ---
    Huh?
[17:20] ---
    Well, in any case, our kids will
    surpass us in no time at all.
[17:26] ---
    The seedlings of
    the Hidden Leaf Village
[17:27] ---
    are growing soundly.
[17:46] ---
    I survived once again…huh?
[17:50] ---
    Anyway…
[17:53] ---
    it's going to be such a pleasure
    to watch the seedlings of the Leaf
[17:56] ---
    grow into giant trees.
[18:03] ---
    Our dads fought a battle like that?
[18:06] ---
    Our dads are amazing.
[18:09] ---
    And here, I thought our formation
    had gotten much better.
[18:15] ---
    Compared to our dads,
    we still have a ways to go.
[18:27] ---
    If you don't mind my saying,
    a shinobi isn't made in a day.
[18:33] ---
    I look forward to
    your Ino-Shika-Cho formation
[18:36] ---
    when you have reached maturity.
[18:41] ---
    I should be more careful,
[18:43] ---
    so you don't have to
    come to my rescue again.
[18:55] ---
    Well, our dads have their thing,
    and we have our own thing.
[19:00] ---
    No sense in getting
    worked up over this.
[19:02] ---
    You're right.
[19:08] ---
    I think I'm all grown up,
[19:10] ---
    but I guess in my dad's eyes,
    I'm still a just a child.
[19:14] ---
    It's a fact that we haven't
    reached our dads' level.
[19:20] ---
    We have to think that the enemy
    is stronger than them.
[19:24] ---
    Which means,
    this upcoming war is…
[19:30] ---
    I wonder what kind of
    enemy we'll face.
[19:39] ---
    From the time
    when we were genin,
[19:41] ---
    all we thought about
    was running away.
[19:45] ---
    You're right.
[19:46] ---
    We were always scared and
    looked for the easy way out.
[19:50] ---
    Y-Yeah.
[19:52] ---
    If we put a positive spin on it,
[19:54] ---
    you could say we really
    knew ourselves well.
[19:57] ---
    That's right. We're weak!
[20:01] ---
    That's why we're always
    thinking about how to stay alive,
[20:06] ---
    about all the ways to
    beat a stronger enemy,
[20:08] ---
    and about what
    the best strategy is.
[20:11] ---
    I'm counting on you, Ino, Choji!
[20:15] ---
    We may not match up to our dads,
    but we won't be going to war alone!
[20:20] ---
    So let's do what we can,
    in the best way possible!
[20:24] ---
    The only thing we can do is to do
    our best as the people we are now.
[20:28] ---
    Until now, we've stayed together
    and done all right.
[20:33] ---
    So even with this next war…
[20:36] ---
    We'll be okay, right?
[20:38] ---
    What? Y-Yeah.
[20:40] ---
    We'll be fine, just fine!
[20:42] ---
    Okay, guys,
    let's get into the spirit!
[20:44] ---
    Let's go!
[20:47] ---
    – Right!
    – Right!
[22:39] ---
    Damn it, what a horrible morning!
    
    
[22:42] ---
    My dreams were bad,
    
    
[22:43] ---
    and everyone is saying
    Naruto this, Naruto that.
    
    
[22:45] ---
    That can't be helped.
    
    
[22:46] ---
    Naruto is the village hero right now.
    
    
[22:48] ---
    When we were kids he was
    the worst in our class.
    
    
[22:50] ---
    During the Chunin exam,
    if it weren't for his fart, I would've…
    
    
[22:53] ---
    There are no "ifs" in battle.
    That's because…
    
    
[22:56] ---
    You're so annoying!
    Just you watch!
    
    
[22:57] ---
    I'll catch up to him!
    
    
[23:00] ---
    Next time on Naruto Shippuden:
    "Kiba's Determination"
    
    
[23:03] ---
    I won't be left behind!
    
    
[23:06] ---
    Tune in again!
