[00:01] ---
    It happened again!
[00:02] ---
    There are reports from
    every sector that
[00:04] ---
    our comrades are being ambushed
    one after another!
[00:08] ---
    There's confusion everywhere!
[00:09] ---
    We don't know who the enemy is!
[00:11] ---
    What's going on?!
[00:13] ---
    A night raid is supposed
    to have been ruled out!
[00:15] ---
    On top of that, we added security and
    positioned Sensory-type ninja…
[00:19] ---
    Why can't we detect the enemy?!
[00:22] ---
    Is it some kind of poison?
[00:23] ---
    What's the condition of the corpses?
[00:25] ---
    All of them have external wounds.
[00:28] ---
    They're physical attacks.
[00:31] ---
    No doubt they're controlling
    Allied shinobi with genjutsu.
[00:37] ---
    Could it be Itachi?
[00:38] ---
    Hold on! We just got word from
    the Medical Corps.
[00:42] ---
    The enemy looks to be…
[00:45] ---
    White Zetsu transformed into
    Allied Force shinobi!
[00:49] ---
    They're able to mirror chakra imprints!
[00:52] ---
    That explains it…
[00:54] ---
    So during the day battle,
[00:56] ---
    if one of our shinobi got
    his chakra absorbed,
[00:58] ---
    White Zetsu can transform
    into him completely!
[01:01] ---
    What should we do,
    Shikaku of the Leaf?
[01:04] ---
    There is no way we can weed out
    who is friend and who is foe!
[01:06] ---
    How will we prepare for
    the battle at dawn?
[01:09] ---
    If we don't find
    the enemy immediately,
[01:12] ---
    we'll not only lose precious time,
[01:13] ---
    but our own men will
    become casualties!
[01:15] ---
    In the end, they could
    end up killing each other!
[01:19] ---
    So this is the power of White Zetsu.
[01:23] ---
    The battle during the day was
    simply to set up the night…
[01:28] ---
    This was the enemy's true motive.
[03:02] ---
    Aesthetics of an Artist
    
    
[03:20] ---
    There's no sign of enemy movement.
[03:22] ---
    Okay, but stay alert.
[03:26] ---
    Yes. I have look-outs
    posted everywhere.
[03:40] ---
    Halt! Who goes there?!
[03:42] ---
    I'm an ally.
[03:44] ---
    Kurotsuchi of the Hidden Stone,
    from the Second Company.
[03:47] ---
    I've come to speak with the prisoner.
[03:55] ---
    I'm here to relieve you.
[03:57] ---
    Okay. Thanks.
[04:00] ---
    Get some rest. We'll keep watch.
[04:04] ---
    Okay.
[04:34] ---
    It's so tacky to exhibit
    one's Ultimate Art, over and over!
[04:38] ---
    But I guess I have no choice, hmm!
[04:41] ---
    Lightning Style?!
[04:43] ---
    I was being careful too,
[04:45] ---
    since I'm susceptible to
    the Lightning Style.
[04:47] ---
    Deidara… Deidara.
[04:51] ---
    Stop casually calling out
    my name like that!
[04:54] ---
    It's me, Zetsu.
[04:56] ---
    Zetsu? Is that you?!
[04:58] ---
    You were a fun guy.
[05:01] ---
    I'm going to help you
    for old time's sake.
[05:03] ---
    Thanks. Quickly!
[05:06] ---
    Hurry.
[05:07] ---
    Hold on a second…
[05:12] ---
    Oh that? In there?
[05:17] ---
    What is it?
[05:19] ---
    So Big Bro Deidara, you still alive?
[05:21] ---
    I'm dead.
[05:23] ---
    That voice… Is that you, Kurotsuchi?
[05:25] ---
    Did you come to rescue me
    for old time's sake?
[05:28] ---
    I was sent here because
    we used to be friends,
[05:30] ---
    but the situation's just
    the opposite now.
[05:32] ---
    I came because I need your help.
[05:34] ---
    Huh? What do you mean by that?
[05:37] ---
    She's interrogating
    the Hidden Stone ninja.
[05:40] ---
    Where is Kabuto Yakushi?
[05:42] ---
    How should I know!
[05:43] ---
    I wouldn't tell you even if I knew, hmm.
[05:46] ---
    Look, Bro…
[05:47] ---
    Kabuto brought you back to life
[05:49] ---
    and is now using you at
    his convenience.
[05:51] ---
    You're dead, so the least
    you can do is forget the past,
[05:54] ---
    and cooperate with us a little.
[05:57] ---
    Kabuto gave me an opportunity
    to acquire the Super Ultimate Art.
[06:03] ---
    All right.
    Then where is Sasuke Uchiha?
[06:06] ---
    Sasuke, you say?
[06:08] ---
    Are you saying
    he was reanimated, as well?
[06:11] ---
    Sasuke's not dead!
[06:13] ---
    Don't be ridiculous!
[06:15] ---
    I killed him with my Ultimate Art!
[06:18] ---
    But I saw him.
[06:19] ---
    After you died Bro,
    Sasuke was alive and well.
[06:22] ---
    He was fighting with the Raikage
    and the others.
[06:34] ---
    A-Amazing.
[06:36] ---
    He joined the Akatsuki and
    is an enemy of the Allied Forces.
[06:40] ---
    He's with the Akatsuki?!
[06:43] ---
    Right?
[06:43] ---
    Huh?! Yeah, I guess.
[06:46] ---
    What's with that?
[06:47] ---
    Sasuke's alive?
    And he's a member of Akatsuki?
[06:50] ---
    You've gotta be kidding.
[06:52] ---
    In death, I will become art.
[06:55] ---
    This never-before-seen explosion
[06:57] ---
    will leave a never-before-seen scar
    on this land.
[07:01] ---
    And…! My art will win
    never-before-seen admiration!
[07:07] ---
    Now, tremble with fear!
[07:09] ---
    Be in awe! Despair!
[07:14] ---
    Scream!
[07:16] ---
    My art is…
[07:24] ---
    An explosion!
[07:28] ---
    There's no way
    he could still be alive!
[07:30] ---
    I'm telling you he's alive.
[07:32] ---
    That was my Ultimate Art!
[07:34] ---
    Nobody cares about art.
[07:37] ---
    Sasuke, that bastard!
[07:39] ---
    What's with that guy?!
    Wasn't he in awe?
[07:42] ---
    Didn't he tremble with fear?
    Didn't he despair?
[07:45] ---
    Didn't he scream,
    "What the hell is this?!"?
[07:49] ---
    The Earth Style is vulnerable
    to the Lightning Style.
[07:51] ---
    Your explosives won't detonate
    against my Lightning Style.
[07:56] ---
    Isn't that your weakness?
[07:58] ---
    Screw you, Sasuke!
[08:01] ---
    Your Lightning Style won't
    hold me down forever!
[08:09] ---
    Commander Mifune!
    An urgent message from Headquarters!
[08:12] ---
    The enemy has infiltrated
    the Allied Forces
[08:14] ---
    and are assassinating people!
[08:16] ---
    Chaos is spreading within
    all the companies!
[08:19] ---
    Is this company in any danger?
[08:22] ---
    Not at the moment.
[08:24] ---
    Yes, sir! I will relay your reply.
[08:27] ---
    Sir, what about
    the Hidden Stone kunoichi earlier?
[08:31] ---
    I don't think she's an enemy.
[08:33] ---
    Bro?
[08:35] ---
    Hey, are you listening, Bro?
    Answer me!
[08:38] ---
    This isn't getting anywhere!
[08:41] ---
    Open it. I want to speak
    with him directly.
[08:44] ---
    You want me to open it?
[08:48] ---
    Hey.
[08:49] ---
    Sir!
[08:50] ---
    Mountain.
[08:52] ---
    Huh?
[08:54] ---
    Mountain…
[08:56] ---
    Distant skies?
[09:01] ---
    It's "River."
[09:02] ---
    Damn samurai!
[09:06] ---
    You're so predictable.
[09:08] ---
    You bastards!
[09:09] ---
    They're Zetsu!
[09:10] ---
    What?!
[09:11] ---
    Careful! They'll absorb your chakra!
[09:24] ---
    Art is…an explosion.
[09:27] ---
    Deidara!
[09:29] ---
    How?! Why didn't the Lightning Style
    seal his Explosion Style?!
[09:35] ---
    Is that how you channeled
    the Lightning Style away?
[09:38] ---
    What was that doing
    inside the puppet?!
[09:40] ---
    It was thanks to me…
[09:43] ---
    Zetsu.
[09:44] ---
    What?
[09:46] ---
    Let's get out of here!
[09:47] ---
    Huh? Wait!
[09:49] ---
    Don't let him get away!
[09:50] ---
    Man, he's troublesome
    even when he's dead!
[09:54] ---
    The prisoner, Deidara,
    has escaped.
[09:56] ---
    He's with his comrade, Zetsu.
    Apprehend them!
[09:59] ---
    Okisuke.
[10:01] ---
    I will take full responsibility
    for my blunder, I swear!
[10:04] ---
    This is not the time for regrets.
    After them!
[10:07] ---
    Yes, sir!
[10:08] ---
    Why are we running?
[10:10] ---
    Let's kill them!
[10:12] ---
    I'm out of Detonating Clay.
[10:14] ---
    I need to get more somewhere.
[10:17] ---
    Uh-oh… They're coming!
[10:25] ---
    You're in my way!
[10:30] ---
    In front, too!
[10:32] ---
    Damn it!
[10:37] ---
    Still weak as ever, aren't you?
[10:39] ---
    That was a tactic to
    give us more time.
[10:43] ---
    Looks like you escaped the seal.
[10:46] ---
    Kabuto!
[10:48] ---
    I would've expected nothing less.
    I'll take that back.
[10:51] ---
    Wait!
[10:52] ---
    My Ultimate Art was
    completely rejected!
[10:55] ---
    I can't die like this…
[10:57] ---
    even if I'm already dead. Hmm.
[11:00] ---
    You intend to stand and fight there?
[11:02] ---
    I'm going to perfect
    my Super Ultimate Art!
[11:06] ---
    I just don't understand
    how you artists think.
[11:09] ---
    But intellectuals have
    to protect artists.
[11:15] ---
    That's…
[11:18] ---
    Get away. I'll hold them off.
[11:21] ---
    I'll leave them to you, Chukichi!
[11:25] ---
    Hidden Frost Jutsu.
[11:34] ---
    What the hell?!
[11:35] ---
    Where is he hiding?
[11:45] ---
    That's…a lot of 'em.
[11:52] ---
    He's gone!
[11:54] ---
    Curses!
[11:57] ---
    I sense them!
[11:59] ---
    Commander Mifune!
    They went that way!
[12:01] ---
    Let's go.
[12:05] ---
    How much farther
    are we going to run?
[12:07] ---
    I need clay, hmm!
[12:09] ---
    I need to find a place
    with clay in the soil.
[12:12] ---
    Leave that to me.
[12:17] ---
    Fight as you see fit, Deidara.
    Freedom suits you well.
[12:23] ---
    Besides, I'm going to be busy.
[12:27] ---
    Unless we catch Big Bro Deidara
    before he finds some clay,
[12:31] ---
    this could get troublesome.
[12:33] ---
    Previously, Omoi of the Cloud
    contained the explosion
[12:35] ---
    with his Lightning Style,
[12:37] ---
    but he's is in a different unit now.
[12:40] ---
    Do we have anyone in this unit
    who can handle lightning?
[12:42] ---
    Fifth Company split into two.
[12:45] ---
    Our company's main weapon
    is samurai.
[12:47] ---
    Our only ninja are sensory, sealing,
    and intel support personnel.
[12:52] ---
    Commander Mifune,
    I am able to do Lightning Style.
[12:56] ---
    Good…
[13:09] ---
    They're coming, Deidara!
    Our pursuers!
[13:12] ---
    What?!
[13:13] ---
    I've only managed to get
    this much Detonating Clay!
[13:16] ---
    Scatter!
[13:21] ---
    Lightning Style!
[13:27] ---
    What's happening?!
[13:28] ---
    Did Big Bro—?!
[13:29] ---
    Under us!
[13:30] ---
    Land mines!
[13:31] ---
    Jump!
[13:36] ---
    You're not gonna stop us!
[13:47] ---
    Take that!
[13:56] ---
    Not enough, hmm.
[14:02] ---
    This is art!
[14:08] ---
    Big Bro's gonna explode.
[14:10] ---
    You have to keep discharging it!
[14:12] ---
    We need a more powerful
    Lightning Style!
[14:14] ---
    Th-This is the best I can do!
[14:20] ---
    Lord Mifune!
[14:39] ---
    Hey, Deidara…
[14:43] ---
    Hey, what's happening to me?
[14:44] ---
    A reanimated body is immortal.
[14:48] ---
    In a way, you're like
    a walking Detonating Clay Bomb.
[14:51] ---
    I suspected that.
[14:53] ---
    How tacky! The despair, hmm!
[14:57] ---
    Why?
[14:59] ---
    Art is a moment of brilliance,
[15:01] ---
    blossoms that scatter all at once.
[15:04] ---
    But this body can't scatter!
[15:09] ---
    I'm going to find
    a Super Ultimate Art
[15:11] ---
    that transcends
    the Ultimate Art, hmm.
[15:20] ---
    Damn you, Bro!
[15:26] ---
    Lord Mifune? Where are you?
[15:31] ---
    Lord Mifune!
[15:33] ---
    The holes left by his landmines
    became trenches.
[15:39] ---
    Bro Deidara wasn't very thorough
    with his Detonating Clay, was he?
[15:42] ---
    We'll need a plan.
[15:45] ---
    With insulation,
[15:46] ---
    we could keep him from channeling
    away the Lightning Style.
[15:48] ---
    The problem is
    our Lightning Style wielder.
[15:50] ---
    But…I'm not…
[15:52] ---
    You just concentrate on
    sensing their whereabouts.
[15:55] ---
    Shall I request Headquarters
    for reinforcements?
[15:58] ---
    We don't have time to wait
    for reinforcements.
[16:05] ---
    We'll do this with
    the personnel we have.
[16:20] ---
    What am I going to do?
[16:22] ---
    This immortal body and
    my aesthetic are incompatible.
[16:27] ---
    Sasori might be able
    to do something.
[16:30] ---
    But he went off quickly.
[16:34] ---
    I'm all alone.
[16:36] ---
    But artists are loners
    to begin with, hmm.
[16:40] ---
    I buried the landmines.
[16:43] ---
    Well? Got any ideas?
[16:46] ---
    Art doesn't come to one that easily.
[16:49] ---
    Especially not a Super Ultimate Art!
[17:13] ---
    Sasuke?!
[17:15] ---
    Why are you here?
[17:25] ---
    It's you guys…
[17:27] ---
    Bastard! Why are you alive?!
[17:29] ---
    Where's Naruto?
[17:31] ---
    I don't know!
[17:32] ---
    Right now, pay attention to me, hmm!
[17:35] ---
    My business is with Naruto.
[17:37] ---
    Damn it, not that again!
[17:40] ---
    First Itachi, now Naruto?!
[17:42] ---
    You really don't give
    a damn about me, do you?!
[17:46] ---
    Nope.
[17:47] ---
    Bastard!
[17:49] ---
    They're coming!
[17:50] ---
    See ya.
[17:51] ---
    Stop!
[17:52] ---
    Deidara!
[17:55] ---
    Don't let them get away!
[17:59] ---
    You're not getting away!
[18:00] ---
    Deidara! Wait!
[18:02] ---
    Sasuke didn't seem…
[18:10] ---
    This time,
    I'll make you tremble with fear!
[18:12] ---
    You'll be awed!
[18:14] ---
    You'll feel despair.
[18:16] ---
    I'll wipe that smug expression
    off your face!
[18:34] ---
    I see!
[18:35] ---
    There! Over there!
[18:39] ---
    I knew it. Your weakness
    isn't Lightning Style, Bro.
[18:41] ---
    It's your stupid obsession with art!
[18:47] ---
    Kurotsuchi?!
[18:49] ---
    Bastards! What's the meaning of this?
[18:57] ---
    A dud?
[19:02] ---
    Dammit!
[19:08] ---
    That sword won't stop my art!
[19:17] ---
    A samurai using Lightning Style?!
[19:19] ---
    It's not Lightning Style.
[19:21] ---
    A storage cell… Looks like
    you know how to use one.
[19:27] ---
    I don't!
[19:29] ---
    What the—?!
[19:31] ---
    This is all bedrock, Bro.
[19:35] ---
    The sword can't penetrate.
[19:36] ---
    Even if it could, it won't let
    the Lightning Style discharge.
[19:45] ---
    Damn it! Hey! Let me go!
[19:53] ---
    All right.
[19:59] ---
    And one other thing, Bro.
[20:01] ---
    Where is the real Sasuke right now?
[20:03] ---
    Damn it, Kurotsuchi.
    Don't treat me like a fool!
[20:08] ---
    Pretending to be Sasuke!
    You even looked like him!
[20:11] ---
    Screw you!
[20:12] ---
    Yeah, I suppose it's no use trying
    to get info out of you, Bro.
[20:17] ---
    You're totally screwed.
[20:19] ---
    We're heading back.
[20:20] ---
    We'll maintain our original frontline.
[20:22] ---
    Inform Headquarters.
[20:25] ---
    Commander, could I have that back?
[20:32] ---
    Don't bother us again,
    Bro Deidara!
[20:36] ---
    See ya!
[20:43] ---
    That might work, hmm!
[20:45] ---
    I've decided the theme of
    my Super Ultimate Art!
[20:50] ---
    That thing could use a face!
[20:56] ---
    Art will never die!
[20:59] ---
    Even if I'm dead..hmm!
[22:37] ---
    While all the shinobi
    are away fighting
    
    
[22:39] ---
    in the 4th great shinobi war,
    
    
[22:40] ---
    we need to be prepared
    to protect the village!
    
    
[22:42] ---
    There's a chance the enemy
    may come for us as well!
    
    
[22:46] ---
    We've had incidents
    like that before,
    
    
[22:48] ---
    and every time,
    we beat the crap out of them!
    
    
[22:51] ---
    Don't underestimate the mothers
    of the Leaf Village!
    
    
[22:55] ---
    Next time on Naruto Shippuden:
    "The Allied Mom Force!"
    
    
[23:00] ---
    Protecting the village is also
    an important duty!
    
     THE ALLIED MOM FORCE!
    
    
[23:05] ---
    Tune in again!
