[00:49] ---
    Granny Chiyo.
[00:51] ---
    What's going on...?
[00:58] ---
    That little girl shouldn't be able
    to move anymore...

[01:04] ---
    Is Grandma controlling her?
[01:07] ---
    No, she wouldn't be able to make
    such complicated movements

[01:10] ---
    in her condition...
[01:15] ---
    That little girl...
    is moving under her own will...

[01:20] ---
    How is it she can move?
[01:22] ---
    I thought I nailed her with my poison.
[01:25] ---
    Sakura...You...
[01:29] ---
    I used an antidote.
[01:37] ---
    When did you...get such a thing...?
[01:41] ---
    When I made the antidote for Kankuro
    in the Village Hidden in the Sand...
[01:48] ---
    I never imagined I'd find
    this many medicinal herbs

[01:51] ---
    here in the Hidden Sand.
[01:55] ---
    However, it's quite difficult to grow
    medicinal herbs in this type of location.

[01:59] ---
    We only have a small amount
    of Scurvy Grass in particular...

[02:02] ---
    No, this is more than enough.
[02:05] ---
    I can make three doses of antidote.
[02:09] ---
    I was able to make just three.
[02:11] ---
    I used one of them to heal Kankuro.
[02:21] ---
    You should be all right now, I think.
[02:24] ---
    Just lie there and rest for
    a while without moving

[02:26] ---
    until the numbness goes away.
[02:29] ---
    I knew the enemy would use poison,
[02:32] ---
    so I made the other two into injections
    and brought them with me.
[02:36] ---
    I see... So that's how...
[02:39] ---
    Yes, I used one of the two.
[02:43] ---
    However, the effects of the antidote
    will only last around three minutes.
[02:48] ---
    No matter how often I get hit
    with poison during that time,
[02:50] ---
    the effects of the medicine will turn
    all of it into harmless proteins.
[02:56] ---
    I see...
[02:58] ---
    I couldn't let Sasori find out
    that I had this antidote...
[03:05] ---
    I knew I'd have an opportunity
[03:07] ---
    after he revealed his final intentions
    and let his guard down.
[03:11] ---
    So I couldn't use it until
    the very last moment.
[03:20] ---
    Now there's only one left...
[03:25] ---
    I will hand this over to you,
    Granny Chiyo.
[03:28] ---
    Right...
[03:30] ---
    Are you okay?!
[03:35] ---
    Don't tell me
    the poison was neutralized...

[03:41] ---
    If you want to live that badly,
    I won't finish you off.
[03:47] ---
    However, that poison will kill you
    in less than three days...
[03:56] ---
    Don't tell me they analyzed the components
    using the poison from back then...

[04:00] ---
    No, that couldn't be.
[04:03] ---
    Even if by some chance they were able
    to analyze the components,

[04:06] ---
    they shouldn't be able to
    make an antidote that easily.

[04:10] ---
    The concoction of an antidote
    is so difficult

[04:13] ---
    that even the slightest mistake
    is not permissible.

[04:16] ---
    Even I, who made the poison,
[04:17] ---
    needed a ratio chart
    for its concoction...

[04:21] ---
    I'll heal you now.
[04:32] ---
    Now poison won't affect me for
    the next three minutes.
[04:37] ---
    Everything depends on
    those three minutes!
[04:40] ---
    Right...
[04:46] ---
    Grandma, huh...?
[04:49] ---
    No, I'm the one who knows
    the level of medical ability

[04:52] ---
    in the Hidden Sand more
    than anyone.

[04:54] ---
    I made a poison that
[04:56] ---
    even she wouldn't be able to
    immediately create an antidote for.

[05:06] ---
    So this kid's also
    a Medical Ninja, huh...?

[05:09] ---
    If I recall, she's from the Leaf...
[05:15] ---
    The current Leaf Hokage Tsunade
    is known as a top-notch Medical Ninja...

[05:27] ---
    Don't tell me...
    she made the antidote...?!

[07:03] ---
    Three Minutes Between
    Life and Death
    
    
    

[07:13] ---
    Sakura, my left hand's okay now.
[07:18] ---
    O-Okay...
[07:34] ---
    Here I go!
[07:41] ---
    Incredible strength...evasion...
    heals wounds...

[07:59] ---
    They all utilize a considerable amount
    of Chakra...

[08:09] ---
    She's probably already reached
    her limit...

[08:22] ---
    Good grief.
[08:24] ---
    At this rate,
[08:26] ---
    I won't be able to show my face
    to my man Sasori...
[08:30] ---
    I've got to use the rest of
    my Detonation Clay
[08:32] ---
    and show him that I'm a real artist!
[08:37] ---
    And to do so...
[08:38] ---
    I'll get that Copy Ninja
    out of the way!
[08:43] ---
    It took a little time,
    but how about this?!
[09:07] ---
    What?
[09:09] ---
    Unlike the bird-type from earlier,
    these are sure small...

[09:13] ---
    Is that so they won't get picked off
    by shuriken...?

[09:16] ---
    And this amount...
[09:19] ---
    Judging from the size
    of their hind legs...

[09:22] ---
    I'd bet their special skill
    is jumping strength.

[09:26] ---
    Then I guess we'll go with
    a battle of speed!

[09:44] ---
    Naruto! Hold on!
[09:46] ---
    You're too slow, Kakashi Sensei!
    I'm going on ahead!
[09:50] ---
    Don't do anything reckless
    on your own!
[09:52] ---
    Yeah, I know.
[09:57] ---
    This might be a bit of a problem...
[10:04] ---
    For the time being,
[10:05] ---
    I stopped the bleeding
    of the large wounds...

[10:09] ---
    I'll use all of my remaining Chakra
    to attack!

[10:13] ---
    If I don't finish this during
    the next three minutes,

[10:15] ---
    there won't be a next time!
[10:25] ---
    The effects of the antidote
    will last three minutes...

[10:29] ---
    We don't have any time.
[10:31] ---
    Can you fight right away,
    Granny Chiyo?
[10:33] ---
    Very well.
[10:38] ---
    Let's end this!
[10:49] ---
    Now then...
[10:51] ---
    this isn't the time to have
    a staring contest with these things.

[10:55] ---
    If I leave Naruto on his own,
    he could lose control at any moment.

[11:09] ---
    So by maintaining a fixed distance
    equal to how far I retreat,

[11:13] ---
    they're preventing me from
    breaking through...

[11:16] ---
    If so...!
[11:29] ---
    They'd...better be following me...
[11:42] ---
    Good work.
[12:00] ---
    That takes care of him.
[12:03] ---
    What? Kakashi Sensei?
[12:10] ---
    Now at last, it's just the two of us.
[12:16] ---
    Don't scowl like that.
[12:18] ---
    Here I'm going to the trouble of
    letting you see your friend.
[12:27] ---
    Yeah-yeah, as a fellow Jinchuriki,
[12:30] ---
    you can't keep your cool, can you?
[12:32] ---
    Give Gaara...back!
[12:36] ---
    Hold it!
[12:38] ---
    Kakashi Sensei...!
[12:42] ---
    Oh man, and I was totally convinced
    that you'd died.
[12:47] ---
    Sorry, it wasn't the real me
    that blew up.
[13:10] ---
    Next time, you'd better figure out
    how to get them
[13:13] ---
    to tell the difference between
    a real body and a Shadow Clone...
[13:16] ---
    If there's a next time, that is...
[13:22] ---
    Hold it!
[13:23] ---
    That goes for you, too...
[13:26] ---
    It's okay. We'll definitely get Gaara back.
[13:31] ---
    So calm down!
[13:37] ---
    Sasori's gonna get mad at me again
    for not being prepared enough...
[13:42] ---
    But it's not my style to think
    about every little detail
[13:46] ---
    and always be perfectly prepared.
[13:49] ---
    Dealing with matters with
    a flexible mindset,
[13:51] ---
    no matter what the situation,
[13:54] ---
    leads to developing sophistication
    as an artist.
[14:02] ---
    What should I do?
[14:04] ---
    Listen up, Naruto.
[14:05] ---
    You're not accustomed to
    that kind of enemy.
[14:09] ---
    Not only that, he's a long-range type,
[14:12] ---
    the worst match for someone like you;
    who specializes in close-range battle.
[14:17] ---
    There are only two ways to
    defeat this type of enemy.
[14:22] ---
    One is to draw the enemy
    into a close-range fight
[14:25] ---
    and defeat them...
[14:27] ---
    The other is to outdo the enemy
    with a long-range attack
[14:30] ---
    and defeat them.
[14:32] ---
    But, how do we do that...?
[14:35] ---
    No matter which method is taken,
[14:37] ---
    your unit needs either a comrade
    who specializes in long-range attacks
[14:40] ---
    or one who can use support Ninjutsu
    for long-range battles.
[14:47] ---
    In the event of having neither...
    it's impossible to defeat the enemy.
[14:54] ---
    Well, it'd be different
[14:56] ---
    if you were as smart
    as Shikamaru, though.
[14:59] ---
    Stop beating around the bush!
[15:01] ---
    If that's the case, then what about
    you Kakashi Sensei...?
[15:02] ---
    Oh...me, huh?
[15:06] ---
    A Jonin who's as smart as Shikamaru
[15:08] ---
    and possesses support Ninjutsu
    for long-range battles.
[15:12] ---
    Then we've got what we need!
[15:14] ---
    That's why I told you to calm down.
[15:17] ---
    Then we should get right to it...
[15:18] ---
    It won't work out that easily.
[15:22] ---
    He won't leave himself open
    if we just chase him around.
[15:28] ---
    Okay, you're in range!
[15:52] ---
    Mission accomplished.
[15:58] ---
    He infiltrated the Hidden Sand by himself
    and defeated Gaara.
[16:04] ---
    And most important...
    he's a member of the Akatsuki.
[16:09] ---
    Hey, this isn't the time for me
    to be taking it easy.
[16:12] ---
    Then what do we do?
[16:15] ---
    All we can do is create
    an opening from our end.
[16:19] ---
    You and me together.
[16:27] ---
    If you were able to catch on to what I said,
[16:29] ---
    then lend me an ear.
[16:31] ---
    I'll tell you the plan.
[16:53] ---
    Let's go, Sakura!
[16:55] ---
    Right!
[16:58] ---
    Heh... I'll admit it.
    You're an impressive kid.

[17:05] ---
    Who would've thought she could destroy
    the Third Kazekage...

[17:10] ---
    It's useless to use
    other Human Puppets any longer.

[17:15] ---
    I haven't used this since
    I joined the Akatsuki...
[17:20] ---
    I can't remember when that was...
[17:23] ---
    Wh-What's that?!
[17:27] ---
    He hasn't aged at all since
    he left my side.
[17:35] ---
    He's exactly the same as before...
[17:43] ---
    Scorpion
    
    
    And that's the reason why...
[17:47] ---
    It's really been a long time...
[17:50] ---
    since I used myself.
[17:57] ---
    He turned himself...
[18:00] ---
    into a Human Puppet.
[18:20] ---
    Got it?
[18:21] ---
    Yeah, I got it!
[18:24] ---
    Let's go.
[18:39] ---
    What...?
[18:48] ---
    If his entire body is a puppet...
[18:57] ---
    Then it's safe to assume
[18:59] ---
    all of the weapons inside his body
    are covered with poison...

[19:04] ---
    What's the matter...?
[19:07] ---
    It's already been over a minute
    since I gave myself the antidote shot...

[19:12] ---
    Weren't you going to finish me off?
[19:18] ---
    If you're not going to attack me...
[19:22] ---
    The effects of the antidote
    will last less than two minutes.

[19:29] ---
    During that time...
[19:30] ---
    somehow, I need to turn this
    into a close-range battle

[19:32] ---
    and then finish him off...
[19:36] ---
    Then I'll make the first move!
[19:44] ---
    It's useless to hide!
[20:01] ---
    Now...what will you do?
[21:36] ---
    Open Ninja! Treasure Price Value!
[21:38] ---
    Today, we had Granny Chiyo
    bring us these!
[21:41] ---
    The finest works of Puppet Master Jutsu,
    by Monzaemon the First Puppeteer.
[21:45] ---
    If these are genuine,
    it'd be a historical finding!
[21:48] ---
    There is no "if"'!
[21:49] ---
    And how much value would
    the owner place on them?
[21:50] ---
    These are priceless, of course!
[21:53] ---
    I see. And how much value would
    the Connoisseur place on them?
[21:55] ---
    These are truly fine works!
[21:56] ---
    Ah, looks like they've made the decision!
    Open the price!
[22:00] ---
    One...10...100...
    1000...10,000!
[22:03] ---
    Next time:
    Puppet Fight: 10 vs. 100!"
