[00:06] ---
    This is serious!
[00:08] ---
    Is something wrong?
[00:09] ---
    How much longer before
    we reach the island?
[00:12] ---
    There's been no wind, so…
[00:14] ---
    But we'll be okay.
[00:16] ---
    We're supposed to rendezvous with
    the Tsuchikage's messenger by…
[00:20] ---
    That's going to be too late!
[00:22] ---
    What? Chojuro?
[00:24] ---
    I'm going on ahead!
[00:26] ---
    Please follow
    as soon as you can!
[00:36] ---
    I give up!
[00:39] ---
    The ground is still shaky…
[00:42] ---
    You were seasick until
    the very end, weren't you, Guy?
[00:46] ---
    The end?
[00:48] ---
    After we replenish supplies here,
[00:49] ---
    we will head straight to
    the Land of Lightning.
[00:53] ---
    I see.
[00:54] ---
    A lot of things happened,
[00:55] ---
    but it looks like
    we'll accomplish our mission.
[00:58] ---
    By the way, where's Naruto?
[01:07] ---
    Miso and pork broth is good,
    but seafood broth's great too!
[01:11] ---
    Damn it. He dashes out
    before you can stop him.
[01:15] ---
    We'll be staying here
    for a night.
[01:17] ---
    And it's a small island.
    There's no harm in that.
[01:20] ---
    Whoa… It's still shaky.
[01:22] ---
    Guy…
[01:26] ---
    From here on out,
    it's the Land of Water, huh.
[01:29] ---
    Still, what a tiny island.
[01:32] ---
    Hey, we should stop
    moving around so much
[01:34] ---
    or the people we're supposed to meet
    won't be able to find us.
[01:36] ---
    So what?
[01:38] ---
    We arrived early, didn't we?
[01:39] ---
    – We should look around while we can.
    – Guy! Are you all right?
[01:42] ---
    – It's taking a while to get over it, isn't it?
    – I can't do that.
[01:44] ---
    Lord Tsuchikage appointed me
    as his messenger.
[01:47] ---
    You just decided to
    come along all on your own.
[01:49] ---
    Don't quibble, Akatsuchi.
[01:52] ---
    The Land of Water hasn't had
    diplomatic ties with anyone.
[01:56] ---
    So we've never had
    a chance to gather Intel.
[01:59] ---
    We may have teamed up now,
    but we're still shinobi.
[02:03] ---
    Who knows when
    the situation will change?
[02:07] ---
    Are you the messengers
    from the Tsuchikage?
[02:12] ---
    Who are you?
[02:14] ---
    I'll be taking…
[02:16] ---
    your lives!
[02:24] ---
    Follow me!
[02:28] ---
    Hey, do you know
    that we belong…
[02:32] ---
    to the Allied Shinobi Force?!
[02:33] ---
    Shut up and die, Stone ninja!
[02:36] ---
    Who are you?!
[02:43] ---
    That's—!
[02:48] ---
    Akatsuchi!
[02:59] ---
    Hey! Why are the Stone and
    Mist fighting here?
[03:03] ---
    That's what I want to ask!
[03:05] ---
    They just attacked us
    out of the blue!
[03:08] ---
    Move it, Leaf!
[03:11] ---
    You know I can't do that!
[03:17] ---
    You're in the way!
[03:27] ---
    What?
[03:28] ---
    Even if you are from the Leaf,
    if you interfere…
[03:31] ---
    Please stop!
[03:36] ---
    Is that backup?
[03:39] ---
    Don't stop me, Chojuro.
[03:41] ---
    No. This violates
    Lady Mizukage's will.
[03:46] ---
    Per her orders…
[03:48] ---
    I'll have to make you stop!
[03:51] ---
    That's if I can…
[03:59] ---
    What? He disappeared.
[04:02] ---
    I-Is everyone all right?
[04:04] ---
    What?! How can
    we be all right?
[04:08] ---
    So scary…
[04:10] ---
    Why would you
    guys attack us? Huh?
[04:14] ---
    Hey!
[04:15] ---
    This is no time to be arguing!
[04:22] ---
    This isn't good!
[04:23] ---
    Hey, let's take him.
[04:25] ---
    Hey, Leaf underling! Help us!
[04:29] ---
    Me? An underling?
[06:02] ---
    Naruto's Vow
    
    
[06:06] ---
    W-What?!
[06:08] ---
    What do you mean,
    "there's no doctor"?
[06:11] ---
    I'm very sorry,
    this is an isolated island…
[06:15] ---
    But there's a Medical Ninja
    in my team
[06:18] ---
    that's headed this way.
[06:19] ---
    They will be arriving shortly.
[06:21] ---
    Hey, I brought some towels.
[06:25] ---
    I don't need a report.
    Just wipe his sweat.
[06:28] ---
    You're not very thoughtful
    are you, underling?
[06:30] ---
    Who're you calling "underling"?!
[06:32] ---
    Who else but
    a lowly messenger genin
[06:34] ---
    would be hanging around
    a place like this?
[06:37] ---
    Hurry up and get to work.
[06:43] ---
    Why me?
[06:45] ---
    Damn it!
[06:46] ---
    Why'd it turn out like this?
[06:48] ---
    Who are they anyway?
[06:50] ---
    I just received a message
    from Lady Mizukage.
[06:54] ---
    Several shinobi have suddenly
    dropped out of sight from the village.
[06:58] ---
    They oppose
    the current shinobi alliance
[07:01] ---
    and the central figure among them
    is a jonin named Ganryu.
[07:04] ---
    Is that the one
    who injured Akatsuchi?
[07:06] ---
    Yes.
[07:07] ---
    He is the sole survivor
    of an incident
[07:10] ---
    known as
    the Tragedy of Yosuga Pass.
[07:12] ---
    Yosuga Pass?
[07:14] ---
    You're probably aware of
    the deep-seated hostility
[07:17] ---
    between the Mist and the Stone.
[07:20] ---
    That incident is said to
    have started the hostility.
[07:27] ---
    About ten years ago,
    the Hidden Cloud went around
[07:30] ---
    collecting jutsu from
    each of the Nations.
[07:32] ---
    They seized a highly confidential
    document from us.
[07:36] ---
    On that day,
    in a team led by Ganryu,
[07:39] ---
    the Hidden Stone, along
    with our allies the Mist,
[07:42] ---
    set out to recover the document.
[07:48] ---
    Stay alert.
    The Cloud are just up ahead.
[07:52] ---
    No need to worry.
[07:53] ---
    We have our allies from
    the Stone beyond this point.
[07:56] ---
    That may be so, but…
[08:00] ---
    If this mission is a success,
[08:02] ---
    we will show
    the rest of the lands
[08:04] ---
    that there is solidarity
    between the Stone and Mist.
[08:07] ---
    That way, we can get
    a little bit closer to peace.
[08:11] ---
    Suiren…
[08:13] ---
    That's what I wish. I hope it could
    be like that some day.
[08:28] ---
    W-Why?
[08:30] ---
    We are supposed to be allies!
[08:34] ---
    Hand it over.
[08:35] ---
    Our mission is to return home
    with that document.
[08:40] ---
    This is absolutely…
[08:43] ---
    unforgivable!
[08:48] ---
    Kill him.
[08:56] ---
    Suiren?
[08:59] ---
    I wish I could have seen…
[09:03] ---
    peace.
[09:24] ---
    Suiren… Junsai…
[09:37] ---
    "That way, we can get
    a little bit closer to peace," huh.
[09:43] ---
    Ganryu…
[09:51] ---
    He continues to hate
    the Hidden Stone.
[09:54] ---
    Perhaps that is why
    it was difficult for him
[09:57] ---
    to accept this new alliance.
[10:03] ---
    Don't tell me
    that's why he attacked us.
[10:07] ---
    I believe he intends
    to get his revenge
[10:10] ---
    by assassinating you,
    the messengers of the Stone,
[10:14] ---
    and by destroying the alliance
    which he opposes.
[10:23] ---
    As if we'd stand by and
    allow such a thing to happen?!
[10:28] ---
    Uh, where are you going?
[10:30] ---
    I'll get him before he gets me.
[10:33] ---
    Please wait!
[10:34] ---
    We will settle this matter—!
[10:39] ---
    Hey!
[10:40] ---
    You guys take care
    of Akatsuchi.
[10:53] ---
    The world of the ninja
    is ruled by hatred.
[10:58] ---
    And if I can't find the answer,
[11:01] ---
    perhaps I will entrust you
    to find it.
[11:14] ---
    What's the big idea, underling?
[11:17] ---
    I understand you're angry
    because your friend was hurt.
[11:22] ---
    But don't go.
[11:25] ---
    So I should wait quietly
    until he comes for me?
[11:28] ---
    That's not what I mean!
[11:29] ---
    If you go, one of you will die.
[11:32] ---
    And it'll be him.
[11:34] ---
    That's not it.
[11:36] ---
    I can't allow you two…
[11:40] ---
    – to fight!
    – to fight!
[11:42] ---
    What the hell
    are you talking about?
[11:45] ---
    If you think you can stop me,
[11:48] ---
    just try!
[11:52] ---
    Damn it!
    There's no end to this!
[11:54] ---
    We're not going to let you go!
[11:56] ---
    Why you—!
[12:06] ---
    Not again!
[12:07] ---
    We won't let you pass.
[12:11] ---
    For an underling,
[12:12] ---
    you sure have a nasty jutsu
    for stalling people.
[12:15] ---
    I'll go and settle this.
[12:17] ---
    So go back and
    stay with your friend.
[12:21] ---
    I don't want to.
[12:22] ---
    Don't underestimate me.
[12:33] ---
    I have to hurry!
[12:36] ---
    One of the messengers
    got away from Chojuro
[12:38] ---
    and is headed this way?
[12:40] ---
    Perfect.
[12:42] ---
    This calls for an ambush, Ganryu!
[12:45] ---
    No. You guys stay out of this.
[12:49] ---
    You can return to the village.
[12:52] ---
    What are you saying?!
[12:54] ---
    He's right! The Hidden Stone
    killed my father!
[12:58] ---
    I want to be a part of this!
[12:59] ---
    – Me too!
    – He's right, Ganryu!
[13:02] ---
    Think about those you left behind.
[13:06] ---
    Your anger and your hatred…
[13:10] ---
    I will take every shred
    of those feelings with me!
[13:13] ---
    But…!
[13:28] ---
    Why do you interfere?
[13:32] ---
    I'm Naruto Uzumaki
    of the Hidden Leaf.
[13:36] ---
    The Nine Tails' Jinchuriki?
[13:39] ---
    I heard your story.
[13:41] ---
    But I came to stop you.
[13:45] ---
    My Master was killed by Pain.
[13:48] ---
    So I understand
    the bitterness you feel.
[13:51] ---
    But you have to stop this!
[13:55] ---
    I heard you killed Pain
    and got your revenge.
[13:59] ---
    You're wrong.
[14:01] ---
    He just used up all of his power.
[14:05] ---
    Are you telling me
    you didn't want revenge?
[14:09] ---
    Of course not.
[14:11] ---
    When he stood before me,
    I was consumed with hate.
[14:16] ---
    I wanted to kill him so much
    that my entire body shook!
[14:21] ---
    But I realized that wasn't enough.
[14:26] ---
    Why not?
[14:27] ---
    Because that just starts
    a cycle of hatred.
[14:31] ---
    Once it begins, the cycle will
    keep going for both sides.
[14:33] ---
    Revenge begets revenge.
[14:35] ---
    And people dear to us will die,
    one after the other.
[14:40] ---
    I see. But I'm fully aware
    of that already.
[14:44] ---
    Then why?!
[14:46] ---
    There's no other path to take…
[14:49] ---
    in order to make
    her wish come true.
[14:53] ---
    What are you talking about?
[14:56] ---
    If an incident of revenge
    occurs here
[14:59] ---
    the Five Kage will be forced
    to think seriously…
[15:04] ---
    about the difficulty and risk
    involved in maintaining an alliance.
[15:08] ---
    And they'll also be forced
    to think about peace.
[15:12] ---
    Peace?
[15:13] ---
    A village looks out for
    its own interests.
[15:18] ---
    Villages form alliances,
[15:20] ---
    but easily go back on them
    to suit their needs.
[15:25] ---
    For the sake of their villages,
    shinobi have committed betrayals,
[15:29] ---
    and fought and killed one another
    time and time again.
[15:34] ---
    How many shinobi
    do you think exist
[15:36] ---
    within each of
    the Five Great Nations,
[15:38] ---
    who harbor hatred towards
    shinobi from different lands?
[15:43] ---
    This time, I started it.
[15:44] ---
    But this kind of occurrence
    happens all the time.
[15:48] ---
    And not everyone can suppress
    their desire for revenge like you.
[15:56] ---
    An alliance formed only
    by the higher ranks
[15:58] ---
    will just end up repeating the past.
[16:04] ---
    That's not true.
[16:08] ---
    Because I'll change the future!
[16:13] ---
    How can you be so sure?
[16:15] ---
    My master and my fellow shinobi
    have entrusted me
[16:20] ---
    to find the answer to
    deal with hatred.
[16:22] ---
    The answer to
    stop this cycle of revenge.
[16:25] ---
    The answer to foster
    understanding between shinobi!
[16:29] ---
    They put their faith in me,
    and I'm going to find the answer!
[16:33] ---
    So have some faith
    in me too, old man!
[16:37] ---
    Even it happens gradually,
[16:40] ---
    I'll get closer to this thing
    called peace!
[16:47] ---
    And we will be just
    a little bit closer to peace.
[16:55] ---
    Suiren…
[16:58] ---
    I found you, Ganryu!
[17:12] ---
    You…
[17:14] ---
    Are you crazy?!
    Jumping in front of him like that!
[17:18] ---
    Don't worry.
    This is nothing.
[17:23] ---
    Are you kidding me?
    I used full force just now!
[17:26] ---
    I can't afford…to die here.
[17:33] ---
    I have too much to do still…
[17:38] ---
    Hey, is it going to be
    my fault if you die?!
[17:40] ---
    Is this going to become
    an international incident?!
[17:41] ---
    You must be kidding me!
[17:44] ---
    Don't die!
[17:46] ---
    I'm not. I'm just resting
    because it hurts.
[17:51] ---
    Naruto Uzumaki…
[17:54] ---
    I understand.
[17:55] ---
    I'll put my trust in you.
[17:59] ---
    Stop right there!
[18:02] ---
    I'm taking you into custody.
[18:04] ---
    If you resist…!
[18:10] ---
    I have no intention of resisting.
[18:12] ---
    Also please tend to his wounds.
[18:16] ---
    Hey, you from the Mist!
    What happened to Akatsuchi?!
[18:19] ---
    I left a Medical Ninja to treat him.
[18:21] ---
    His injuries are
    not life-threatening.
[18:23] ---
    I see.
[18:25] ---
    Ganryu…
[18:28] ---
    Here.
[18:29] ---
    The messenger you injured
    entrusted this to me.
[18:37] ---
    This is…
[18:38] ---
    He returned the personal effects of
    those who died at Yosuga Pass.
[18:41] ---
    Along with a formal apology
    for that incident.
[18:45] ---
    That was the true purpose
    of the messengers
[18:47] ---
    dispatched by Lord Tsuchikage.
[18:51] ---
    The Hidden Stone…
[18:54] ---
    apologized for that incident?
[18:58] ---
    He did?
    That stubborn old man?
[19:01] ---
    This was in order to strengthen
    the new alliance
[19:03] ---
    between the Mist and Stone.
[19:11] ---
    I see.
[19:14] ---
    What's going to happen
    to that guy?
[19:20] ---
    He will either be
    executed or released.
[19:24] ---
    He committed a serious crime.
[19:26] ---
    I'm sure he is prepared
    to face the consequences.
[19:29] ---
    I don't think it will come to that.
[19:32] ---
    I got hurt because I made
    a wrong turn and stumbled.
[19:37] ---
    Right, Kurotsuchi?
[19:40] ---
    Are you saying this makes up
    for that incident in the past?
[19:44] ---
    I'm just going to have the Mist
    owe us one. That's all.
[19:49] ---
    Maybe the old man wasn't
    the only one
[19:51] ---
    who had a change of heart
    because of the Kazekage.
[19:55] ---
    Kazekage?
[19:59] ---
    Hey, you Mist!
    Remember, you owe us one!
[20:02] ---
    Oh, yes. Thank you very much!
[20:05] ---
    And you, Leaf underling!
[20:08] ---
    Hey, your wound is still…
[20:10] ---
    Sorry, but I left
    my comrades waiting.
[20:13] ---
    See you!
[20:16] ---
    The least he could've done
    was introduce himself!
[20:20] ---
    Hey, what happened to you anyway?!
[20:24] ---
    Well, how should I put it?
[20:26] ---
    I made a wrong turn
    and stumbled.
[20:29] ---
    Stumbled? Where?
[20:31] ---
    Aoba! Is that all
    you're going to say?
[20:34] ---
    Never mind already.
[20:36] ---
    We have
    an early start tomorrow, right?
[20:38] ---
    So let's get everything ready,
    and then hit the sack.
[20:41] ---
    Well, we had a change of plans.
[20:42] ---
    We got word that the ship
    from the Land of Lightning
[20:45] ---
    is coming to pick us up directly.
[20:48] ---
    It should be here soon.
[20:53] ---
    Oh, there it comes!
[20:56] ---
    That's…!
[22:37] ---
    It's here! That must be the octopus
    coming to guide me.
    
    
[22:40] ---
    All right!
    
    
[22:41] ---
    Will we clash or
    be a smash?
    
    
[22:44] ---
    If I dare say,
    it will be a no-go, whee!
    
    
[22:46] ---
    I'm a brat-hating outlaw!
    
    
[22:51] ---
    Who's this old man
    with the weird rhymes?
    
    
[22:54] ---
    Next time on Naruto Shippuden:
    "Land Ahoy!
    Is this the Island of Paradise?"
    
    
[22:59] ---
    This old man's
    the Eight Tails' Jinchuriki?
    
    
[23:05] ---
    Tune in again!
