[00:13] ---
    Captain Kakashi…
[00:16] ---
    What's the enemy up to?
[00:18] ---
    There are no signs of life,
    even the enemy's.
[00:21] ---
    It's completely silent.
[00:24] ---
    What's going on?
    I don't think they would just give up.
[00:29] ---
    The key to a shinobi battle is
    psychological warfare.
[00:32] ---
    I don't like doing what
    the enemy wants us to do,
[00:35] ---
    but we should use this as
    a chance to rest.
[00:39] ---
    Everyone, rest up and
    recover your chakra!
[00:43] ---
    But be on your guard!
[00:46] ---
    We'll scout the area
    every half an hour!
[00:48] ---
    We must make sure
[00:50] ---
    we're ready to begin
    fighting again at any time!
[00:53] ---
    That is all!
[00:57] ---
    Guy, you should rest a little too.
[01:00] ---
    Did you think that I could sleep
    at a time like this?!
[01:05] ---
    I understand how you feel, but…
[01:07] ---
    Captain Kakashi…
[01:09] ---
    We've received that item from HQ.
[01:28] ---
    Reanimation…
    This jutsu is unforgivable!
[01:31] ---
    Sai, use the Foundation's
    Sealing Jutsu.
[01:35] ---
    Follow my lead!
[01:36] ---
    But I still can't use that jutsu…
[01:39] ---
    Danzo thought highly of you,
    didn't he?
[01:43] ---
    There's no need to suppress
    your emotions anymore!
[01:52] ---
    Hey, Sai, sorry to bother you
    while you're resting.
[01:56] ---
    That's okay.
[02:00] ---
    This just came from headquarters.
[02:02] ---
    You need this for
    your Sealing Jutsu, right?
[02:11] ---
    Lee…
[02:16] ---
    Is it the enemy?!
[02:18] ---
    It looks like you can still fight.
[02:20] ---
    Yes, sir!
[02:22] ---
    I, Rock Lee, the Blue Beast,
[02:24] ---
    do not know the meaning
    of the word "exhaustion"!
[02:27] ---
    I want you to be Sai's bodyguard.
[02:30] ---
    He won't be able to
    defend himself well
[02:32] ---
    while he's preparing
    his Sealing Jutsu.
[02:36] ---
    Leave it to me!
[02:38] ---
    I will risk my life for him!
[02:42] ---
    I leave it to you, Sai.
[02:45] ---
    Y-Yes, sir.
[02:52] ---
    Sai!
[02:53] ---
    I look forward to working with you!
[02:55] ---
    Do not worry!
[02:57] ---
    No matter who the foe,
[02:59] ---
    I will not let them
    lay a finger on you!
[03:02] ---
    – Lee…
    – Sai!
[03:04] ---
    You can skip the formalities
    and call me by a nickname
[03:08] ---
    like you do with Naruto and Sakura!
[03:14] ---
    I'd like you to leave me
    alone for a while…
[03:17] ---
    I understand! Call me right away
    if something happens!
[03:36] ---
    Do you have a moment?
[03:39] ---
    Sure, what is it?
[03:41] ---
    I'd like to hear a little more
    about Sai's Sealing Jutsu.
[03:49] ---
    Okay.
[03:52] ---
    Where should I begin?
[03:55] ---
    You know that he used to be
    a member of the Foundation, right?
[03:59] ---
    It probably all started
[04:01] ---
    when Orochimaru attacked
    during your Chunin Exams.
[04:13] ---
    I need you to learn
    this Sealing Jutsu.
[04:17] ---
    Yes, sir…
[04:18] ---
    The Third Hokage was
    an unparalleled jutsu user.
[04:22] ---
    But when Orochimaru
    used Reanimation
[04:25] ---
    to bring back the First
    and Second Hokage,
[04:28] ---
    he had to seal them away
    with the Reaper Death Seal…
[04:31] ---
    and in doing so, sacrificed his life.
[04:35] ---
    In order for things to
    work in our favor,
[04:37] ---
    the Foundation needs
    a powerful Sealing Jutsu.
[04:43] ---
    But will I be able to master
    a Sealing Jutsu that will
[04:46] ---
    work against someone
    as powerful as Orochimaru?
[04:50] ---
    You can do it.
[04:54] ---
    You've been taught that shinobi
    don't need emotions, right?
[04:58] ---
    Yes…
[04:59] ---
    Your suppressed feelings create
    massive amounts of energy
[05:03] ---
    deep inside your heart.
[05:06] ---
    By releasing that emotional energy,
[05:09] ---
    your Sealing Jutsu will
    become very powerful.
[05:13] ---
    But be careful!
[05:15] ---
    Releasing your emotions
    can make you
[05:18] ---
    susceptible to negative feelings.
[05:20] ---
    It can be very dangerous.
[07:18] ---
    The Helmet Splitter: Jinin Akebino
    
    
[07:28] ---
    It's time to change shifts.
[07:29] ---
    Okay.
[07:31] ---
    How are things?
[07:32] ---
    There's been no change.
[07:34] ---
    It's morning and
    they still haven't shown up.
[07:38] ---
    It sure is quiet.
[07:40] ---
    It's like the calm
    before the storm.
[07:43] ---
    I hope it means
    the festival's over.
[07:47] ---
    E-Enemy attack!
[07:54] ---
    They're here!
[08:02] ---
    This way!
[08:07] ---
    He ran away?
[08:19] ---
    Damn it! Is he over here?!
[08:31] ---
    Hey… Where did everyone go?
[08:54] ---
    There he is! This way!
[08:58] ---
    Even though he's cornered,
[08:59] ---
    he doesn't look like
    he's going to fight us.
[09:02] ---
    The enemy sent
    their weaker forces into battle.
[09:05] ---
    It seems like hiding in the trees
[09:06] ---
    and using guerrilla warfare
    will be their main tactic.
[09:09] ---
    They want us to become bold and pursue
    our targets, and once we've scattered,
[09:11] ---
    they'll destroy
    the Shinobi Alliance one by one.
[09:14] ---
    I hate to admit it,
    but their aim was for us
[09:16] ---
    to become overconfident
    after defeating Zabuza!
[09:19] ---
    What are we going to do?!
    Things are going downhill!
[09:22] ---
    We need to regroup.
[09:24] ---
    Send a message to each team
[09:26] ---
    telling them to work with
    at least two other teams!
[09:29] ---
    Okay, got it! And what will you do?
[09:33] ---
    I'm worried about
    the squads behind us.
[09:35] ---
    If I were the enemy,
[09:36] ---
    I would use this confusion to
    cut off our support squads!
[09:39] ---
    The rear guards are tough and
[09:41] ---
    have the restraints and seals
    to fight against Reanimation.
[09:45] ---
    Well, I don't understand!
    I'll just let you handle it!
[09:50] ---
    You heard us, right?!
    Send a message to all teams!
[09:53] ---
    Do not pursue the enemy
    if you see them!
[09:56] ---
    Try to stick together and
    we'll destroy them one by one!
[09:59] ---
    Yes, sir!
[10:00] ---
    Guy Sensei!
[10:02] ---
    Sorry I'm late!
[10:03] ---
    Hey!
[10:04] ---
    Sai! Lee!
[10:06] ---
    Perfect timing. Follow me!
[10:08] ---
    We're going to prepare a seal!
[10:09] ---
    Yes, sir!
[10:10] ---
    You can count on me!
[10:11] ---
    We won't let them get their way!
[10:15] ---
    Sai, it takes time for you to
    prepare the Sealing Jutsu, right?
[10:20] ---
    How do you know about that?
[10:22] ---
    Actually, I asked Kakashi
    whether it takes time
[10:25] ---
    for you to concentrate
    in order to use emotional energy.
[10:30] ---
    I will protect you while
    you're doing that!
[10:34] ---
    Earth Style!
    Rampart of Flowing Soil!
[10:41] ---
    Ensui, prepare
    the Shadow Paralysis!
[10:44] ---
    Got it!
[10:54] ---
    I found you…
[10:57] ---
    One more time!
[11:01] ---
    Defending yourself against
    the Blunt Blade Helmet Splitter
[11:06] ---
    is meaningless!
[11:18] ---
    Form a line of defense…
[11:20] ---
    Trying to block me is meaningless.
[11:23] ---
    You still don't seem to understand!
[11:30] ---
    This next attack will be your last!
[11:31] ---
    It's not over yet!
[11:38] ---
    That's…
[11:41] ---
    Captain Kakashi!
[11:42] ---
    I hope you don't think
    this will be over soon!
[11:51] ---
    Sai, please begin!
[11:53] ---
    Okay…
[11:54] ---
    Let's see what
    your Sealing Jutsu can do!
[12:08] ---
    But be careful!
[12:10] ---
    Releasing your emotions
    can make you
[12:13] ---
    susceptible to
    negative feelings.
[12:15] ---
    It can be very dangerous.
[12:20] ---
    I've made up my mind.
[12:23] ---
    But I've been told to suppress
[12:24] ---
    my emotions
    ever since I was little.
[12:29] ---
    Is it really possible for me to
    master this Sealing Jutsu?
[12:34] ---
    More importantly, can I overcome
    this sense of fear I have
[12:38] ---
    when I release my emotions?
[12:50] ---
    You've succumbed to
    your negative feelings.
[13:04] ---
    You're back…
[13:06] ---
    Sir Danzo… What is this?
[13:10] ---
    You must assimilate the mass
    of negative feelings
[13:13] ---
    you have pent up within you
    and train carefully.
[13:17] ---
    This jutsu is the reason why
[13:19] ---
    I raised you all from the time
    you were young.
[13:22] ---
    Try to gain complete control
    over your emotions.
[13:26] ---
    Release your negative feelings
    and restrain them.
[13:35] ---
    I couldn't suppress
    my emotions that time…
[13:39] ---
    Can I suppress my emotions now
    better than I could then?
[13:44] ---
    If anything, it's even harder now!
[13:51] ---
    But…
[13:54] ---
    I have to do this!
[14:02] ---
    I see there's still someone who's
    a bit of a challenge in this world.
[14:07] ---
    Even if you're one of the Seven
    Ninja Swords Men of the Mist,
[14:10] ---
    we're not going to let you
    win so easily.
[14:14] ---
    Shut up!
[14:21] ---
    That eye looks dangerous, but…
[14:27] ---
    If I thrust my sword
    towards you, I can win!
[14:31] ---
    There's no way to block
    my Helmet Splitter.
[14:34] ---
    Who said anything about blocking?
[14:39] ---
    Your defense is weak!
[14:49] ---
    One down!
[14:58] ---
    Ensui!
[14:59] ---
    Yes, sir!
[15:01] ---
    Hold him with Shadow Paralysis
    until the seal is ready.
[15:04] ---
    Understood.
[15:06] ---
    The rest of you, group up with
    the squad in front. Follow me!
[15:21] ---
    Let's go!
[15:40] ---
    Shadow Stitching Jutsu!
[15:47] ---
    I see…
[15:48] ---
    It's the same kind of hidden
    ninjutsu that Shikamaru uses.
[15:51] ---
    This is only a stopgap measure.
[15:53] ---
    If I undo my seal, he'll be free.
[15:56] ---
    I hope you can seal him away
    as soon as possible.
[16:05] ---
    Impossible…
[16:09] ---
    Run away, little brother.
[16:11] ---
    Our bodies are indestructible.
    There's no way you can win!
[16:15] ---
    Shin…
[16:19] ---
    Brother, snap out of it!
[16:25] ---
    Secret Black Technique!
    Salamander!
[16:30] ---
    Brother!
[16:40] ---
    Sai…
[16:42] ---
    I heard it was difficult,
[16:44] ---
    but he really looks
    like he's suffering.
[16:48] ---
    Are you all right?
[16:53] ---
    Lee…
[16:55] ---
    Someone's coming!
[16:57] ---
    An Explosive Style User!
[17:01] ---
    This is not good!
[17:04] ---
    Sai!
[17:05] ---
    Hurry up with the seal!
[17:07] ---
    Lee can't handle this by himself.
[17:09] ---
    I need to assist him!
[17:11] ---
    There's no need to worry!
[17:13] ---
    I won't forgive the Akatsuki!
[17:15] ---
    They're controlling the dead
    using Reanimation.
[17:18] ---
    I'm seriously mad.
[17:20] ---
    Is there any reason
    why I would lose?
[17:23] ---
    No! There isn't!
[17:39] ---
    How?
[17:40] ---
    I don't sense any negative feelings
    coming from Lee's anger.
[17:45] ---
    Why? Doesn't anger come
    from negative feelings?
[18:06] ---
    This is bad!
[18:08] ---
    How dare you…
[18:09] ---
    How dare you harm my friend!
[18:16] ---
    The enemy is on the move.
[18:18] ---
    We should regroup with
    the main company!
[18:21] ---
    Sai!
[18:23] ---
    If there's anything I can do,
    let me know!
[18:26] ---
    I'll do whatever I can!
[18:29] ---
    I'm your friend, after all!
[18:33] ---
    I see…
[18:35] ---
    I see… The source of Lee's anger
    is his feelings for his friends.
[18:39] ---
    But I can't do that…
[18:43] ---
    No!
[18:44] ---
    I'm different from how I was then.
    I have friends now.
[18:51] ---
    And now, I have a lot of
    feelings towards those friends.
[19:00] ---
    A Sealing Jutsu that becomes
    more powerful
[19:02] ---
    when I release my emotions.
[19:04] ---
    But those emotions don't have
    to be negative ones
[19:07] ---
    that come from anger or sorrow!
[19:21] ---
    Sai!
[19:23] ---
    Lee…
[19:24] ---
    I still haven't given you
    a nickname, have I?
[19:28] ---
    I'll think of one,
    once this war is over.
[19:45] ---
    Sai! Do it.
[19:47] ---
    Sealing Jutsu…
[19:49] ---
    Crouched Tiger Bullet.
[19:58] ---
    Okay! We caught him!
[20:00] ---
    Return!
[20:18] ---
    Whatever the defense…
[20:30] ---
    Wait! Don't go after him!
[20:46] ---
    Sai!
[22:37] ---
    What a pathetic sight, Maki!
    You're protecting a Mist shinobi.
    
    
[22:43] ---
    She is my comrade.
    
    
[22:44] ---
    A "comrade"? What are you
    talking about?
    
    
[22:46] ---
    She's from the Bloody Mist.
    They would even kill their own kind.
    
    
[22:50] ---
    We've formed
    the Allied Shinobi Forces!
    
    
[22:52] ---
    An alliance? Whatever!
    You idiots!
    
    
[22:56] ---
    Next time on Naruto Shippuden:

    Pakura of the Sand!"
