[00:18] ---
    Hey, Nine Tails' brat,
    thanks for trying to save Motoi.
[00:22] ---
    Sure.
[00:24] ---
    Naruto has the ability to
    bring people together.
[00:28] ---
    Just like Bee.
[00:32] ---
    Yes! I totally agree!
[00:35] ---
    I think I need to
    reconsider ya mate.
[00:37] ---
    You're quite a good guy,
    real top rate.
[00:40] ---
    Octopops,
    ya got the best rap…
[00:43] ---
    I'm so happy to know ya,
    I'm one lucky chap!
[00:46] ---
    It's great that Naruto and
    Bee share similar traits.
[00:50] ---
    But frankly, I wish he'd stop
    copying his rapping.
[00:54] ---
    Yo! Keep the beat.
[00:59] ---
    What do you know about Bee?
[01:02] ---
    If you keep complaining about him,
    I won't forgive you, kid!
[01:05] ---
    Motoi trusts Octopops.
[01:09] ---
    Did that happen?
[01:13] ---
    And Octopops trusts Motoi.
[01:23] ---
    Yo! I'm Naruto, ya know!
[01:28] ---
    All right, it's decided!
[01:33] ---
    Man, it's "ya know, ya know"
    all the time.
[01:39] ---
    Shuddup, ya know!
[01:45] ---
    Go to the Waterfall of Truth.
[01:47] ---
    You'll pass with flying colors now.
[04:00] ---
    The Next Challenge!
    Naruto vs. Nine Tails!
    
    
[04:06] ---
    So have you come back because you
    haven't learned your lesson yet?
[04:09] ---
    It's going to be the same,
    no matter how many times you try.
[04:12] ---
    You cannot beat me.
[04:16] ---
    I know.
[04:19] ---
    Trying to defeat you
    with force isn't going to work.
[04:23] ---
    Because we use
    the exact same moves.
[04:27] ---
    You won't be able to
    chase me out either.
[04:30] ---
    I know you better than anyone else.
[04:36] ---
    Then…
[04:37] ---
    You already know…
[04:41] ---
    What do you want to say?
[04:44] ---
    What I decided earlier.
[04:49] ---
    I don't remember.
[04:52] ---
    Don't act like you don't know.
[04:55] ---
    Well, never mind.
[04:56] ---
    This place is supposed to show
    the truth in your heart,
[05:00] ---
    so I'll concentrate on the image
    and show it directly to you.
[05:10] ---
    HOKAGE CANDIDATE #1 NARUTO
[05:15] ---
    This is my autograph.
[05:19] ---
    Why you!
[05:26] ---
    Oh hey! Give me
    your autograph, Naruto!
[05:29] ---
    Could you make it out to my kid?
    He's a big fan of yours.
[05:34] ---
    An autograph?
[05:35] ---
    The hero of the Hidden Leaf.
[05:37] ---
    The youth who created a miracle,
    Naruto Uzumaki.
[05:41] ---
    Give me your autograph too!
[05:43] ---
    What is it? You refuse?
[05:44] ---
    Oh no, but I'm not used to
    that sort of thing.
[05:48] ---
    I don't have a clue
    what to sign.
[05:52] ---
    Back at Ichiraku, I couldn't give
    them their autographs.
[05:55] ---
    Here it is now.
[06:01] ---
    Who cares if you have it now?
[06:03] ---
    What a joke!
[06:05] ---
    Everyone in the village is
    just sweet-talking you.
[06:07] ---
    They don't mean it.
[06:08] ---
    They've been lying to us
    the whole time.
[06:12] ---
    Making up rules and
    treating us like outcasts!
[06:15] ---
    Don't you remember?
[06:23] ---
    It was so hard and painful.
[06:28] ---
    I'm the only one who will
    ever understand you!
[06:30] ---
    Don't trust anyone
    from the village!
[06:35] ---
    Yeah…
[06:36] ---
    The villagers are important,
[06:39] ---
    but there's someone else
    I have to trust first.
[06:45] ---
    I have to believe in myself.
[06:48] ---
    I need to trust the me that
    the villagers believe in.
[07:12] ---
    Why?
[07:15] ---
    After all that
    they put us through?
[07:21] ---
    Octopops made me
    realize something.
[07:24] ---
    He doesn't doubt himself at all.
    He has pride in himself.
[07:31] ---
    Do you…
[07:33] ---
    Do you consider me a burden?
[07:36] ---
    Just what am I to you?
[07:38] ---
    Because you existed,
    I became strong.
[07:42] ---
    Thanks to you,
    I've made it this far.
[07:45] ---
    And?
[07:47] ---
    And what am I…
[07:49] ---
    And what am I
    supposed to do now?
[07:52] ---
    That's simple.
[08:00] ---
    You just become me.
[08:03] ---
    Since you are me.
[08:09] ---
    Thanks for everything until today.
[08:12] ---
    But it's going to be all right now.
[09:13] ---
    It seems…
[09:14] ---
    …it all went well?
[09:15] ---
    It's too soon to celebrate,
    fool, ya fool.
[09:25] ---
    Shall we try to control
    the Nine Tails' power now?
[09:30] ---
    From this moment,
    I'll be your instructor
[09:32] ---
    Ya better prepare yourself or else
    you'll suffer death n' torture.
[09:36] ---
    All right!
[09:38] ---
    Come with me, Naruto!
[09:41] ---
    Um, may I come along?
[09:44] ---
    Okay!
[09:45] ---
    What about Motoi?
[09:47] ---
    I have to report in to the Hidden Cloud
    at regular intervals,
[09:49] ---
    so I'll take my leave here.
[09:51] ---
    Thank you for your help.
[09:54] ---
    Things won't be easy
    from here on out.
[10:00] ---
    So there was something on
    the other side of the waterfall.
[10:15] ---
    Wow!
[10:17] ---
    You'll fight the Nine Tails here!
[10:20] ---
    Fight the Nine Tails?
[10:23] ---
    That's right, fool, ya fool.
[10:54] ---
    This is amazing.
[10:57] ---
    Follow me.
[11:15] ---
    These ruins seem to
    be quite old.
[11:18] ---
    They must have
    archeological importance,
[11:20] ---
    they should be restored.
[11:22] ---
    No! Those stone statues were carved
    without heads to begin with.
[11:28] ---
    There's a reason for it.
[11:30] ---
    How am I supposed to
    fight the Nine Tails here?
[11:35] ---
    What's more, how am I
    supposed to face him?
[11:37] ---
    I hope you're not going to
    do anything excessive!
[11:40] ---
    Do you think it's something
    that can be controlled
[11:42] ---
    without doing
    something excessive?
[11:43] ---
    Fool, ya fool.
[11:46] ---
    Since long ago,
    this has been a sacred place
[11:47] ---
    where those selected as
    Jinchuriki have come
[11:49] ---
    to undergo
    the Purification Ceremony.
[11:53] ---
    It's set up here so you can talk to
    your Tailed Beast in a special way.
[11:58] ---
    It's right inside this building.
    You hear what I say?
[12:02] ---
    This is…
[12:03] ---
    Only the chosen ones can enter…
    To be selected.
[12:07] ---
    Go and stick your head
    into the statue's mouth…
[12:10] ---
    Like a good man, respected.
[12:12] ---
    If there isn't any darkness
    in your heart, the door will open…
[12:14] ---
    Fully extended.
[12:16] ---
    Hey, can you explain it normally?
[12:20] ---
    I don't quite understand.
[12:22] ---
    No darkness in the heart?
[12:25] ---
    I see, so that's why
    at the waterfall…
[12:36] ---
    However…
[12:37] ---
    If there's even a little darkness
    in your heart,
[12:40] ---
    the gate will not part.
[12:41] ---
    Do you consent?
[12:43] ---
    And the statue will bite off
    your head and tear you apart.
[12:46] ---
    Are you content?
[12:48] ---
    All the headless statues
    you saw on your way here…
[12:50] ---
    are past Jinchuriki who weren't…
    sincere!
[12:57] ---
    I'm your true self.
[13:00] ---
    The real you.
[13:06] ---
    This is too risky.
[13:08] ---
    Naruto, use a Shadow Clone.
[13:11] ---
    This is a sacred place,
    fool, ya fool.
[13:15] ---
    Generations of Hidden Cloud
    ancestors guard
[13:17] ---
    and protect this place.
[13:19] ---
    Tricks like that won't work!
[13:21] ---
    But…
[13:22] ---
    Captain Yamato…
[13:24] ---
    I came here to learn how
    to control the Nine Tails' power!
[13:29] ---
    This is important to me.
    I can't run away!
[13:43] ---
    I'm going to believe in myself!
[14:01] ---
    Naruto!
[14:07] ---
    No! How could this happen!
[14:11] ---
    Naruto!
[14:12] ---
    You…
[14:14] ---
    Just kidding!
[14:16] ---
    There's just a switch in there.
[14:21] ---
    It's a habit.
    I couldn't help myself.
[14:23] ---
    I did the same thing too.
    Out of habit.
[14:25] ---
    Those stone statues are
    just broken. It's just some wit.
[14:28] ---
    I thought you said this place
    was sacred! Fools, ya fools!
[14:43] ---
    This is…?
[14:47] ---
    Go inside,
    close your eyes and focus.
[14:51] ---
    Just like at the waterfall.
    Then you'll meet your Tailed Beast.
[14:56] ---
    Before when I was training,
[14:58] ---
    I was able to meet
    the Nine Tails in my mind.
[15:03] ---
    Any Jinchuriki can do that.
[15:06] ---
    But this is
    a little different, okay?
[15:21] ---
    Listen to me very carefully.
[15:22] ---
    I'll give you an explanation.
[15:24] ---
    Naruto, what kind of Sealing Jutsu
    was used on your Nine Tails?
[15:28] ---
    Please answer my question.
[15:30] ---
    It's a Tetragram Seal.
[15:32] ---
    A Tetragram Seal, huh.
    That's impressive.
[15:36] ---
    It's even more solid than
    my Steel Shell Seal.
[15:39] ---
    Do you have the key?
[15:45] ---
    I have no choice but to do
    as you say, Great Lord Elder.
[15:54] ---
    What is this?
[15:56] ---
    It is the key left by
    the Fourth Hokage
[15:59] ---
    that locks and unlocks
    the sealing jutsu on your belly!
[16:03] ---
    Yes!
[16:04] ---
    You're going to undo
    the seal, after all.
[16:07] ---
    What if he can't
    control it properly?
[16:10] ---
    What if the Nine Tails
    revives completely?
[16:13] ---
    We'll seal him away here.
[16:16] ---
    That's what this place
    is for as well.
[16:19] ---
    Until we get a new Jinchuriki,
    this is where we'll seal him in.
[16:23] ---
    You got a problem with this?
    No booin'.
[16:25] ---
    – But…
    – That won't happen!
[16:29] ---
    Because I'm going to do this.
[16:32] ---
    Okay! I'm going to shut the door.
[16:36] ---
    And I'll show you how to deal
    with the Nine Tails!
[16:55] ---
    Naruto, you really do impress me.
[16:57] ---
    The rules are simple,
    as you'll soon see.
[17:00] ---
    Greet the Nine Tails in
    your subconscious mind,
[17:02] ---
    then undo the seal.
[17:06] ---
    Hey, evil glare as usual.
[17:11] ---
    Naruto…
[17:13] ---
    You…
[17:18] ---
    What is it?
[17:20] ---
    Where'd the real you go?
[17:24] ---
    I don't sense him.
[17:26] ---
    I'm here…right in front of you!
[17:33] ---
    You conquered hatred.
[17:37] ---
    But don't relax,
    do the best you can!
[17:40] ---
    The Nine Tails is
    a mass of true hatred.
[17:42] ---
    That's absolutely true, man!
[17:55] ---
    What're you up to?
[17:57] ---
    Can't you see my mouth is full?
[18:07] ---
    Here I go…
[18:34] ---
    When the Nine Tails emerges
    from the seal,
[18:36] ---
    grab the Nine Tails' chakra
    with your own chakra,
[18:38] ---
    and pull it away!
[18:42] ---
    Chakra can only be caught
    with chakra.
[18:44] ---
    It's common sense, son.
[18:46] ---
    Take the Nine Tails' chakra
    away from him…
[18:49] ---
    and you'll be number one.
[18:59] ---
    Touch the Nine Tails directly and
[19:01] ---
    stick your chakra onto its chakra,
    and it'll pull each other.
[19:05] ---
    In other words, it's going to be
    like a match of tug-of-war. Okay?!
[19:15] ---
    I'll help you in your fight.
[19:18] ---
    But unfortunately inside
    your head I got no might.
[19:23] ---
    He's strong!
[19:25] ---
    Just a word of warning.
[19:26] ---
    When you're trying to
    take his chakra,
[19:27] ---
    there's the risk that
    he'll pull away yours.
[19:31] ---
    I don't need to explain what'll
    happen if all your chakra is
[19:35] ---
    pulled away and
    you have zero left, right?
[19:38] ---
    I see. You intend to
    control my power.
[19:43] ---
    So you teamed up
    with Eight Tails?
[19:45] ---
    You, the Jinchuriki of
    the Nine Tails? That's pitiful!
[19:57] ---
    The risks are high for sure.
[19:59] ---
    But if you take it away,
[20:01] ---
    the Nine Tails' chakra will
    be yours forever!
[20:04] ---
    Grab whatever chakra you can
    from the Nine Tails' will…
[20:07] ---
    That will be your payoff!
[20:11] ---
    Don't get caught in
    the Nine Tail's hatred.
[20:13] ---
    Use your strong will.
[20:15] ---
    That's how you'll ward him off!
[20:26] ---
    Don't underestimate me !
[20:32] ---
    Thank you, Octopops!
[20:41] ---
    I managed to contain the explosion!
[20:42] ---
    Naruto, that will be the last of
    my cooperation to your operation!
[20:46] ---
    Thanks!
[20:47] ---
    I'm sitting still
    just as I thought.
[20:55] ---
    Sage Art: Super Giant Rasengan!
[22:36] ---
    Damn it. The Nine Tails
    is no joke.
    
    
[22:41] ---
    If it weren't for him…
    I hate him.
    
    
[22:45] ---
    What?
    
    
[22:46] ---
    Don't give in Naruto!
    Fool, ya fool!
    
    
[22:49] ---
    No one will ever respect
    someone like you!
    
    
[22:53] ---
    What is this?
    
    
[22:56] ---
    Next time on Naruto Shippuden:
    "The Orange Spark"
    
    
[23:01] ---
    Who are you?
    
    
[23:05] ---
    Tune in again!
