    Sage Art: Super Giant Rasengan!
[00:22] ---
    So fast!
[00:28] ---
    Do you think you can beat me?
[00:31] ---
    Why would I break
    the seal otherwise?
[00:34] ---
    Besides…
[00:36] ---
    We gotcha!
[00:51] ---
    Wind Style: Rasen Shuriken!
[00:57] ---
    Do it now!
[01:16] ---
    You…bastard!
[01:18] ---
    He's weakening!
    Now's my chance.
[01:33] ---
    Hatred…
[01:35] ---
    Suffering…
[01:36] ---
    I want to kill…
[01:39] ---
    Help!
[01:42] ---
    I hate all this!
[01:45] ---
    It's not going to work anyway.
[01:47] ---
    I'll get revenge!
[01:52] ---
    What is this?
[02:00] ---
    This is bad!
[02:01] ---
    Don't give in, Naruto!
    Fool, ya fool!
[02:12] ---
    You cannot control my power!
[02:16] ---
    You are just a small portion
    of my hatred!
[02:21] ---
    Is he the one?
[02:24] ---
    Get lost!
[02:26] ---
    No one will ever respect
    someone like you!
[02:29] ---
    Get lost!
[02:31] ---
    Get lost!
[02:32] ---
    Get lost! Get lost!
[02:34] ---
    Just go away!
[02:36] ---
    Shut up!
[02:41] ---
    Nine Tails' hatred is greater
    than I imagined.
[02:44] ---
    This could get bad for real.
    This is quite an ordeal!
[02:47] ---
    I'll stop him.
[02:50] ---
    Go away and disappear!
[02:55] ---
    It's all right,
    you can stay right here.
[03:06] ---
    Naruto…
[04:39] ---
    The Orange Spark
    
    
    
[04:41] ---
    The Orange Spark
    
    
    Naruto…
[04:43] ---
    What? What are you doing here?
[04:46] ---
    And how come you know
    my name?
[04:50] ---
    Oh yes, that's right.
[04:54] ---
    Well then, Naruto,
    can you guess who I am?
[05:08] ---
    No way…
[05:10] ---
    Have you figured it out?
[05:12] ---
    You're Nine Tails' real form!
[05:19] ---
    That's such a crude laugh!
[05:22] ---
    You trying to fool me
[05:23] ---
    by disguising yourself
    as a woman, Nine Tails?
[05:25] ---
    You got it wrong, ya know!
[05:27] ---
    Ouch!
[05:30] ---
    Huh? "Ya know"?
[05:33] ---
    I couldn't stop myself
    from hitting you.
[05:36] ---
    I was born impatient,
    and I talk fast,
[05:38] ---
    so I use some weird phrases.
[05:41] ---
    I try to control it,
    but it slips out when I get excited.
[05:46] ---
    What about you?
[05:48] ---
    I hope you didn't get any of
    my bad speech patterns.
[05:53] ---
    Then…
[05:54] ---
    Minato, didn't say anything to you?
[05:59] ---
    Shame on him.
[06:03] ---
    Yes… I'm…
[06:15] ---
    I've wanted…
[06:17] ---
    I've wanted to meet you
    for so long, Ma…ya know?
[06:23] ---
    "Ya know," huh?
[06:26] ---
    You really are my child.
[06:33] ---
    The Nine Tails transformation stopped.
[06:35] ---
    Did you do something, Yamato?
[06:37] ---
    No, it seems to have
    stopped on its own.
[06:41] ---
    What happened?
[06:47] ---
    There's a ton of stuff
[06:49] ---
    I wanted to ask you
    when I met you!
[06:52] ---
    Sure, you can ask me anything.
[06:55] ---
    But first, we have to tame
    the Nine Tails.
[07:11] ---
    This chakra…
[07:14] ---
    Kushina, is that you?
[07:17] ---
    Minato imbedded my chakra
    into the seal formula,
[07:20] ---
    so that when the time came
    for you to take control
[07:23] ---
    of the Nine Tails' power,
    I could be of help.
[07:30] ---
    Are you listening?
[07:31] ---
    I'm glad that
    you're so beautiful, Ma!
[07:35] ---
    Well, thank you!
[07:38] ---
    Your hair is just like your father's,
[07:40] ---
    but I'm sorry you inherited
    my looks, Naruto.
[07:44] ---
    Why?
[07:46] ---
    If I got my pretty mom's looks,
[07:47] ---
    that makes me handsome, right?
[07:50] ---
    And you have nice,
    straight red hair.
[07:55] ---
    I wish my hair were like that too!
[08:01] ---
    You're the second man to
    compliment my red hair.
[08:06] ---
    Really? Who was the first?
[08:11] ---
    Who else? Your father.
[08:15] ---
    Oh! That's right!
[08:18] ---
    What is it?
[08:19] ---
    Hey, hey!
[08:21] ---
    I always wanted to ask you
    one thing if I ever met you!
[08:26] ---
    How did you and Dad
    fall in love?
[08:31] ---
    What an embarrassing thing
    to ask, ya know!
[08:34] ---
    Hey! You said, "ya know!"
[08:36] ---
    You're excited!
[08:38] ---
    In this case, it's more like
    shaken up, ya know!
[08:41] ---
    Hey, you said it again!
[08:48] ---
    Let's see…
[08:50] ---
    It was the first day I came
    to the Hidden Leaf Village…
[09:02] ---
    That's when I first met
    your father, Minato.
[09:06] ---
    All right. We have
    a new transfer student today
[09:08] ---
    who will be attending our Academy.
[09:10] ---
    I'm Kushina Uzumaki, ya know!
[09:12] ---
    Oh!
[09:14] ---
    Look at the color of her hair.
[09:16] ---
    How can anyone have
    hair like that?
[09:19] ---
    How do you get it that red?
[09:21] ---
    Her hair's really weird!
[09:23] ---
    – I wouldn't go out with hair like that.
    – Hey! Be quiet! Settle down!
[09:27] ---
    I'm…
[09:30] ---
    I'm going to become
    the village's first female Hokage!
[09:40] ---
    I want to become a great Hokage
[09:42] ---
    who will be admired by everyone
     in the village too!
[09:49] ---
    A Hokage who is admired
    by everyone in the village, huh.
[09:54] ---
    Back then, he wasn't very manly
    and didn't look too dependable.
[09:59] ---
    So I didn't take Minato seriously
[10:00] ---
    or believe for a minute that
    he could become a Hokage.
[10:04] ---
    Why not? Dad looked so strong.
[10:08] ---
    You're right.
[10:09] ---
    But back then,
    I was young and very ignorant.
[10:19] ---
    But I sure was arrogant,
    having moved from another village
[10:21] ---
    and announcing that I was going
    to become the Hokage.
[10:25] ---
    After that, I started getting
    teased by the boys.
[10:29] ---
    They nicknamed me…
[10:31] ---
    Tomato!
[10:32] ---
    From today, we're going
    to call you Tomato!
[10:35] ---
    You have a fat, round face
    with red hair.
[10:38] ---
    Just like a tomato!
[10:39] ---
    As if a tomato can become
     the Hokage!
[10:41] ---
    I hate tomatoes!
[10:44] ---
    Me too!
[10:45] ---
    I never eat it in my salad!
[10:47] ---
    A tomato that everyone hates
[10:49] ---
    could never be accepted
    as the Hokage!
[10:56] ---
    So that's it!
[10:58] ---
    I'll bet it was Dad who
    protected you from those bullies!
[11:04] ---
    No, you're dead wrong!
[11:08] ---
    Tomato…
[11:09] ---
    I grudgingly accepted being
    called that name.
[11:12] ---
    It was embarrassing,
    but it fit me perfectly.
[11:15] ---
    You're getting redder and riper!
[11:18] ---
    It's the Tomato Festival!
    It's time to harvest!
[11:22] ---
    Who're you calling Tomato?
[11:24] ---
    Now you listen…
    I hate tomatoes too, ya know!
[11:32] ---
    Keep calling me Tomato
[11:34] ---
    and you're going to get it,
    ya know!
[11:39] ---
    What are you laughing at?
[11:44] ---
    I always beat those bullies
    at their own game
[11:48] ---
    and turned them into
    smashed tomatoes.
[11:53] ---
    The girl with the long red hair
    who beat the boys half to death.
[11:58] ---
    As expected,
    I was stuck with a new nickname…
[12:03] ---
    The Red-Hot Habanero!
[12:07] ---
    Kiba and Shikamaru were
    always saying
[12:10] ---
    that mothers are really scary.
[12:15] ---
    Always fighting.
[12:18] ---
    Naturally, I always won these fights
    as the Red-Hot Habanero.
[12:22] ---
    But…
[12:37] ---
    Are you the one who's always
    making my kid brother cry?
[12:42] ---
    That's because he's always
    messing with me, ya know!
[12:45] ---
    And he‘s such a wimp!
[12:49] ---
    I'm a genin! Cool, huh?
[12:54] ---
    I have to teach anyone who bullies
    my kid brother a lesson.
[13:08] ---
    A real kunai?
[13:31] ---
    You can't even recognize
    a Substitution Jutsu?
[13:33] ---
    You're still just a kid!
[13:36] ---
    Your hair's so red…
    and it's stiff like thread.
[13:40] ---
    Hair like this is ugly!
[13:44] ---
    Serves you right!
[13:50] ---
    I…
[13:52] ---
    I don't like my hair either!
[14:13] ---
    But…
[14:17] ---
    Even with hair like this,
    I'm still me!
[14:19] ---
    What choice do I have?
[14:24] ---
    It's the Red-Hot Habanero!
[14:34] ---
    Outsider!
[14:40] ---
    As if an outsider can become
    the Hokage!
[14:56] ---
    You're not going to help me
    because I'm an outsider?
[15:01] ---
    I…
[15:01] ---
    I bet you agree with them too!
[15:23] ---
    It's because I don't want
    to be an outsider…
[15:25] ---
    It's because I want this village
    to be my home…
[15:28] ---
    That's the only reason
    why I said that.
[15:31] ---
    Who would want to become
    the Hokage anyway?!
[15:33] ---
    I used to hate my hair.
[15:40] ---
    But a certain incident changed
    the way I felt about my red hair.
[15:47] ---
    A certain incident?
[15:55] ---
    I'm home!
[15:59] ---
    I'm home.
[16:01] ---
    Is…
[16:04] ---
    Is anyone home?
[16:29] ---
    Someone!
[16:30] ---
    Help me!
[16:37] ---
    I have a special kind of chakra.
[16:40] ---
    Because of that,
    the Hidden Cloud kidnapped me.
[16:56] ---
    Hey!
[17:04] ---
    At that time, in order to
    leave a trail behind
[17:07] ---
    as I was being taken away,
[17:09] ---
    I cut off pieces of my hair
    and dropped it…
[17:13] ---
    without the enemy knowing.
[17:17] ---
    But since I was an outsider,
[17:20] ---
    I didn't hold out hope that
    anyone would come to rescue me.
[17:26] ---
    We had come to the edge
    of the border
[17:28] ---
    and I thought it was all over…
[17:53] ---
    Are you hurt?
[18:07] ---
    I came to save you.
[18:18] ---
    You'll be all right now.
[18:21] ---
    Hey, wait a minute!
[18:32] ---
    That's…
[18:34] ---
    Your hair is beautiful.
    So I noticed it right away.
[18:39] ---
    But you've always ignored me.
[18:42] ---
    Because I know that
    you're strong,
[18:47] ---
    in body and in spirit.
[18:52] ---
    But this is a fight between
    two villages.
[18:56] ---
    It's different from
    your other fights, so…
[19:00] ---
    So?
[19:03] ---
    I didn't want to lose you.
[19:09] ---
    Even if I'm an outsider?
[19:11] ---
    Why do you say that?
[19:13] ---
    You live in Hidden Leaf Village,
    so you're one of us.
[19:18] ---
    At that moment,
[19:20] ---
    Minato was a great ninja
    in my eyes.
[19:22] ---
    He was the man of my dreams.
[19:26] ---
    He changed me.
[19:28] ---
    This red hair that I used to hate
[19:31] ---
    brought me
    the man of my destiny.
[19:35] ---
    And it became
    the "red thread of fate."
[19:38] ---
    After that, I learned to
    love my hair.
[19:42] ---
    And…
[19:44] ---
    I fell in love with Minato.
[19:50] ---
    Only men who compliment my hair
[19:53] ---
    get to hear these precious words
    from me.
[19:57] ---
    Naruto, will you accept them?
[20:00] ---
    Uh-huh!
[20:05] ---
    I love you.
[20:17] ---
    When you put
    the Yellow Flash of the Leaf
[20:20] ---
    and Red-Hot Habanero together…
[20:27] ---
    You get the Leaf's Orange Hokage!
[20:31] ---
    That's cool, ya know!
[20:36] ---
    Hokage…
[20:39] ---
    Your dream is the continuation
    of Minato's and my dream.
[20:44] ---
    Yeah, I won't let your dreams down!
[20:49] ---
    Naruto…
[20:55] ---
    But…before that…
[22:37] ---
    Naruto, listen carefully.
    We're out of time.
    
    
[22:40] ---
    What do you mean
    we're out of time?
    
    
[22:42] ---
    I need to tell you the reason why
    Nine Tails was sealed inside you.
    
    
[22:45] ---
    It has to do with an incident
    that happened 16 years ago.
    
    
[22:48] ---
    Sixteen years ago?
    
    
[22:49] ---
    That's right. Sixteen years ago
    on October 10th…
    
    
[22:53] ---
    The day you were born.
    
    
[22:55] ---
    Next time on Naruto Shippuden,
    "Target: Nine Tails"
    
    
[23:01] ---
    Tell me what happened!
    
    
[23:05] ---
    Tune in again!
