    MAIN BATTLE REGIMENT
    COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF: GAARA
    
    
[00:41] ---
    So…Who's our captain?
    
    
    
    
    
[00:41] ---
    So…Who's our captain?
    
    FIRST COMPANY:
    MID-RANGE BATTLE UNIT
    
    
[00:46] ---
    That spacey looking
    guy over there.
    
    
[00:49] ---
    FIRST COMPANY CAPTAIN:
    DARUI
    
    
[00:52] ---
    I-I'm starting to feel nervous.
    
    
    
    
    
[00:53] ---
    I-I'm starting to feel nervous.
    
    SECOND COMPANY:
    CLOSE-RANGE BATTLE UNIT
    
    
[00:56] ---
    In war, stay calm…
    and composed!
    
    
[00:58] ---
    Hold on…my dad's Captain?!
    
    
[01:01] ---
    It's finally time!
    
    
    
    
    
[01:01] ---
    It's finally time!
    
    SECOND COMPANY CAPTAIN:
    KITSUCHI
    
    
[01:02] ---
    With Kurotsuchi beside me,
    I'll turn the tide of battle!
    
    SECOND COMPANY CAPTAIN:
    KITSUCHI
    
    
[01:06] ---
    Are you all right, Guy Sensei?
[01:09] ---
    The fighting hasn't started!
    What did you do?
    
    
    
    
    
[01:10] ---
    The fighting hasn't started!
    What did you do?
    
    THIRD COMPANY:
    INTERMEDIATE-RANGE BATTLE UNIT
    
    
[01:13] ---
    THIRD COMPANY CAPTAIN:
    HATAKE KAKASHI
    
    
[01:18] ---
    I'd better eat while I still can!
    
    FOURTH COMPANY:
    LONG-RANGE BATTLE UNIT
    
    
[01:21] ---
    Gaara is the captain of
    our Fourth Company,
[01:24] ---
    but he's also
    the commander-in-chief.
[01:26] ---
    As his deputy, you're essentially
    the captain of the Fourth Company.
[01:30] ---
    Stay sharp!
[01:32] ---
    What a bothersome assignment!
[01:37] ---
    COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF AND
    FOURTH COMPANY CAPTAIN: GAARA
    
    
[01:41] ---
    Maybe I'll make a name for myself
    in this war and become the Hokage!
    
    FIFTH COMPANY:
    SPECIAL BATTLE UNIT
    
    
[01:45] ---
    You fool…
    Don't make light of war!
[01:48] ---
    We have to avoid showing off.
[01:50] ---
    You don't have to worry
    about that, Shino…
[01:54] ---
    FIFTH COMPANY CAPTAIN:
    MIFUNE
    
    
[01:58] ---
    Now then, Gaara.
[02:00] ---
    You are the commander-in-chief.
[02:03] ---
    Please address everyone
    when you're ready.
[03:39] ---
    For My Friend
    
    
[03:48] ---
    They're on the move!
[03:49] ---
    And there's a large
    amount of them.
[03:51] ---
    Join up with the main forces
    and inform them of this!
[03:54] ---
    I will remain here and
    investigate the hideout!
[03:57] ---
    It's too dangerous by yourself!
[03:59] ---
    Quiet! Just go!
[04:02] ---
    I'm aware of the risks!
[04:03] ---
    But if we don't get word to them,
[04:05] ---
    our comrades will be
    in greater danger!
[04:31] ---
    Zabuza…
[04:32] ---
    I know…
    This isn't the next plane.
[04:36] ---
    I'm totally conscious,
    yet my body is moving on its own.
[04:41] ---
    This is the Forbidden Jutsu…
    the Reanimation Jutsu.
[04:46] ---
    Someone summoned us
    back to this world.
[04:52] ---
    It means we're going to be
    fighting from now on.
[04:55] ---
    Someone's taking advantage
    of dead people, eh…
[04:58] ---
    I don't like being used
    by any such person!
[05:05] ---
    You will be our Commando Unit.
[05:07] ---
    Go by air!
[05:09] ---
    Sasori and Deidara will lay traps
    and conduct enemy raids.
[05:17] ---
    Chukichi of the Hidden Mist and
    the Leaf Foundation Ninja,
[05:19] ---
    your job will be sensory intel
    and support.
[05:24] ---
    What is…this?
[05:26] ---
    You guys are with the Akatsuki.
[05:28] ---
    Let me make this clear.
    If you try to control us…
[05:35] ---
    If Akatsuki has to rely on a wimp
    like that to order us around,
[05:38] ---
    they sure have fallen
    on hard times.
[05:41] ---
    Not only that, the only survivor
    is Zetsu and Tobi,
[05:43] ---
    the one who replaced me…
[05:45] ---
    You're quite brash for
    being dead my good man.
[05:49] ---
    And you used to insist that
    eternal beauty is art… Hmmm!
[05:53] ---
    And it's all because
    of that humongous
[05:56] ---
    weak spot stuck
    on your chest, hmm!
[05:58] ---
    Deidara, do you want me
    to kill you?
[06:01] ---
    I'm already dead.
    And so are you, hmm.
[06:06] ---
    Is this really going to work?
[06:09] ---
    There are too many
    reanimated shinobi
[06:11] ---
    and it's difficult to
    control them all.
[06:15] ---
    Right now, I'm just focusing
    on the mobilization.
[06:19] ---
    Ultimately,
    I will direct everything.
[06:24] ---
    When the fighting begins,
    I will erase their personalities
[06:27] ---
    and turn them into
    killing machines.
[06:29] ---
    There's no need to worry.
[06:31] ---
    Of course, it will depend
    on their characteristics.
[06:33] ---
    Sometimes, it's better
    not to change them.
[06:36] ---
    Leaving their sentiments intact
    will cause the enemy turmoil…
[06:40] ---
    We'll aim for that weakness.
[06:46] ---
    Aren't you Master Dan?
[06:48] ---
    Yes…
[06:49] ---
    What we share in common
    is that we're dead.
[06:52] ---
    We have been resurrected
    by a Forbidden Jutsu…
[06:55] ---
    summoned to inhabit
    the bodies of living sacrifices.
[06:58] ---
    What is going on anyway?
[07:03] ---
    I have a bad feeling…
[07:05] ---
    Aren't you taking
    Two-toned Zetsu?
[07:09] ---
    I'm leaving Zetsu to keep
    an eye on Sasuke.
[07:12] ---
    I wouldn't put it past you
    to look for the chance
[07:14] ---
    to take him away
    during the battle.
[07:18] ---
    I'm having the 100,000 White Zetsu
    travel underground…
[07:21] ---
    Such a large army would
    only attract attention.
[07:57] ---
    Then we shall set out too.
[08:00] ---
    Now then, first…
[08:05] ---
    Forgive us, Captain Anko!
[08:07] ---
    Please stay alive!
[08:20] ---
    This sensation…
    is it Orochimaru?!
[08:23] ---
    No, it's not!
[08:25] ---
    – Multiple Striking Shadow Snakes!
    – Multiple Striking Shadow Snakes!
[08:30] ---
    Just because you
    have a Curse Mark,
[08:31] ---
    you think you're like
    Lord Orochimaru, Anko Mitarashi!
[08:35] ---
    I could say the same about you!
[08:36] ---
    Have you taken over as
    the leader, Kabuto Yakushi?!
[08:44] ---
    Taijutsu from a bookworm
    will not work on me!
[08:49] ---
    Wha—?!
[09:00] ---
    I have no intention of
    fighting you with taijutsu.
[09:05] ---
    I'm a bookworm.
[09:08] ---
    Poison? Me?
    With all antibodies that I have?
[09:13] ---
    So who is the lord now?
[09:16] ---
    The antibody that
    Lord Orochimaru developed
[09:20] ---
    will not work against
    this poison.
[09:33] ---
    It's…over…there…
[09:36] ---
    Kabuto was right.
[09:38] ---
    At two o'clock…I see three.
[09:45] ---
    What's wrong?
[09:46] ---
    Muta! Ranka!
[09:48] ---
    You two, hurry on!
[09:49] ---
    I will stall them!
[09:51] ---
    The intel!
[09:53] ---
    Get the intel to Headquarters!
[10:14] ---
    Can a young man manage as
    the Commander-in-Chief?
[10:17] ---
    Lord Gaara is not your
    average young man!
[10:20] ---
    How dare you make such
    ignorant assumptions!
[10:23] ---
    How am I supposed to know?
[10:25] ---
    Until recently,
    we were on opposite sides!
[10:28] ---
    Right back at you!
[10:30] ---
    It's not like we trust you either!
[10:33] ---
    So watch what you say!
[10:35] ---
    To be honest,
    I feel the same way.
[10:37] ---
    Right!
[10:38] ---
    Huh?
    What did you just say, Hoheto?
[10:42] ---
    Even if Orochimaru
    deceived them,
[10:45] ---
    the Sand were behind the plot
    to crush the Hidden Leaf.
[10:48] ---
    If it weren't for them,
    Lord Hiruzen would still…
[10:55] ---
    Look… We were lucky enough to
    be named to the Commando Unit…
[11:01] ---
    Things are just about to start…
[11:03] ---
    I know that! I'm a shinobi too!
[11:06] ---
    I'm not about to oppose what
[11:07] ---
    our nation and village
    have decided…
[11:10] ---
    That was just
    my personal opinion!
[11:14] ---
    You Hidden Leaf
    don't have the right…
[11:17] ---
    A rogue ninja from the Hidden Leaf
    attacked Lord Killer Bee,
[11:20] ---
    as well as the Five Hokage
    at their summit!
[11:23] ---
    Are you willing to
    take responsibility
[11:24] ---
    for the loss of
    Lord Raikage's left hand?
[11:26] ---
    What?!
[11:28] ---
    No one completely trusts
    each other yet.
[11:32] ---
    It can't be helped.
[11:34] ---
    After years on opposing sides,
[11:36] ---
    you can't expect them
    to bond in a day or two.
[11:40] ---
    Especially the Sand
    and the Stone.
[11:42] ---
    – Why you—!
    – You jerk!
[11:45] ---
    That's why the Hidden Stone are…
[11:47] ---
    Hey you from the Hidden Mist!
[11:48] ---
    What did you just say?
[11:50] ---
    Since you overheard me,
    what the heck.
[11:54] ---
    I said that the Hidden Stone are
    ruffians who ignore protocol!
[11:59] ---
    What did you say?
[12:01] ---
    We have not forgotten
    the Hidden Stone's treachery
[12:04] ---
    in the Tragedy of Yosuga Pass!
[12:07] ---
    Yosuga Pass?
[12:08] ---
    You're bringing up ancient history.
[12:11] ---
    We agreed to this unit's formation
    to honor Ganryu,
[12:15] ---
    who wished for peace
    from his solitary prison.
[12:30] ---
    But the Mist and Stone
    can never become allies!
[12:41] ---
    You Leaf bastard!
[12:43] ---
    Want to do something about it,
    Hidden Cloud?!
[12:45] ---
    You're gonna betray us
    again anyway, right, Hidden Stone?
[12:48] ---
    Are the Mist just all talk?
[12:49] ---
    If you have a complaint,
    say it with your fists!
[12:53] ---
    You're the one who needs to
    watch what he says!
[12:55] ---
    What?!
[12:56] ---
    Wanna fight?
[12:57] ---
    Sure! You Sand killed my father!
[13:01] ---
    I'd be glad to kill you right here!
[13:03] ---
    Hey, stop!
[13:09] ---
    Huh?!
[13:18] ---
    In the name of gain and profit
    for one's nation and village…
[13:21] ---
    Shinobi have hated and hurt
    each other for many years,
[13:24] ---
    from the First to the Third
    Great Ninja Wars.
[13:29] ---
    That hatred cried out for power,
    and thus, I was born.
[13:34] ---
    In the past, I too was
    hatred and power…
[13:38] ---
    I was a Jinchuriki.
[13:40] ---
    And I hated this world
    and the humans in it
[13:43] ---
    and thought about
    destroying them.
[13:46] ---
    This is exactly what the Akatsuki
    is trying to do now.
[13:55] ---
    However…a single shinobi from
    the Hidden Leaf stopped me.
[14:18] ---
    I know how you feel so well…
    I know it hurts.
[14:28] ---
    Gaara…
[14:36] ---
    Naruto…
[14:54] ---
    Putting us through
    all this trouble!
[15:38] ---
    He cried for me, his enemy!
[15:44] ---
    We wounded each other in battle
    but he called me his friend!
[15:48] ---
    He saved me!
[15:50] ---
    We were enemies,
    but we were both Jinchuriki…
[15:55] ---
    When we share and
    experience the same pain,
[15:59] ---
    there can be no bad blood!
[16:04] ---
    No one is an enemy here!
[16:07] ---
    Because we all bear the pain of
    having been hurt by the Akatsuki.
[16:18] ---
    The Sand…
[16:40] ---
    The Stone…
[16:44] ---
    The Leaf…
[16:54] ---
    The Mist…
[16:59] ---
    The Cloud are no more!
[17:05] ---
    Now, there is only…
[17:08] ---
    …shinobi!
[17:11] ---
    If you still cannot
    forgive the Sand,
[17:15] ---
    after this war is over,
    you can have my head!
[17:25] ---
    The look in everyone's faces
    has changed.
[17:28] ---
    The enemy is now after
    my friend who saved me!
[17:33] ---
    If he falls into enemy hands,
    this world is finished!
[17:37] ---
    I want to protect my friend!
[17:39] ---
    And I want to protect this world!
[17:43] ---
    But I am much too young,
[17:44] ---
    too inexperienced to
    protect this world!
[17:48] ---
    So I beg you all to
    lend me your strength!
[17:52] ---
    You got it, Lord Gaara!
[18:02] ---
    Sorry about that…
[18:04] ---
    No… I was wrong too.
[18:07] ---
    Sorry… I said too much.
[18:09] ---
    I apologize too.
[18:22] ---
    Ganryu! How did you?
[18:25] ---
    It's time for all
    shinobi who have
[18:27] ---
    felt the same pain
    to come together.
[18:28] ---
    I was told that my help
    would be welcome,
[18:30] ---
    if I held no grudges.
[18:34] ---
    It means this war
    is so important that
[18:36] ---
    they'll accept help from
    even someone like me.
[18:39] ---
    We are all one shinobi…
[18:41] ---
    Yeah. Let's be one and
    beat some Akatsuki!
[18:45] ---
    Damn right!
[18:46] ---
    Uh-uh!
[18:51] ---
    The more passionate they are,
[18:53] ---
    the stronger the bond
    that is forged…
[18:57] ---
    Right, Gaara?
[19:01] ---
    You have to hand it
    to Lord Gaara!
[19:02] ---
    Lord Gaara!
[19:04] ---
    You've become
    a fine man… Gaara!
[19:07] ---
    So now, we're all comrades.
[19:10] ---
    It's a nuisance, but I guess we
    have to learn all their scents!
[19:15] ---
    The reputation of
    the Inuzuka nose is on the line.
[19:21] ---
    All who feel as I do!
    Follow me!
[19:37] ---
    I did it!
[19:40] ---
    Not bad.
[19:43] ---
    Next up is the final lesson.
[19:47] ---
    Sad, but true,
    it's hard to proceed…
[19:49] ---
    But we must move forward
    with the deed.
