[00:12] ---
    There's no sign of the enemy.
[00:15] ---
    I don't see our forces either.
[00:17] ---
    We're too scattered.
[00:19] ---
    We must gather the troops together.
[00:22] ---
    You're right.
[00:28] ---
    Captain Kakashi!
[00:30] ---
    Yurui's unit is requesting
    reinforcements!
[00:33] ---
    Omoi's in that unit.
    What's up?
[00:35] ---
    They're engaged in a fight
    with Ameyuri Ringo!
[00:39] ---
    Ameyuri Ringo…
[00:41] ---
    One of the Seven
    Ninja Swordsmen
[00:43] ---
    who wields
    the Lightning Blade, Fang…
[00:46] ---
    I'll go!
[00:47] ---
    I'm going too.
[00:48] ---
    Ameyuri Ringo uses
    the Lightning Style.
[00:52] ---
    I may be able to neutralize her
    with my own Lightning Style.
[02:26] ---
    The Lightning Blade:
    Ameyuri Ringo!
    
    
[02:40] ---
    Stop hiding!
[02:42] ---
    Isn't there anyone here that can send
    shockwaves through my heart?
[02:46] ---
    Lightning Style: Lighting Fang!
[02:56] ---
    Cowards aren't my type!
[03:06] ---
    Where are the reinforcements?!
[03:09] ---
    As punishment…
    I'm going to burn you to a crisp!
[03:13] ---
    Lighting Style: Thunder Gate!
[03:44] ---
    Yurui!
[03:45] ---
    Hang on, Yurui!
[03:51] ---
    It's over…
    Everything's…going dark…
[03:56] ---
    Don't give up, Yurui!
[03:57] ---
    Help is on the way!
[04:00] ---
    Nurui… It's in…
    your hands now…
[04:11] ---
    Yurui! Yurui!
[04:16] ---
    Damn it! I've had it with this!
[04:18] ---
    How many have died already?
[04:21] ---
    Is this what war is?!
[04:34] ---
    Are we the only survivors?
[04:38] ---
    It looks that way.
[04:42] ---
    I'll take command from now on.
[04:44] ---
    I have seniority here.
[04:49] ---
    Ameyuri Ringo went after
    the other platoon
[04:51] ---
    in the other direction.
[04:52] ---
    But she'll be back.
[04:54] ---
    We have to decide
    what to do quickly.
[04:57] ---
    It's obvious. We retreat.
[05:01] ---
    Are we running away?
[05:02] ---
    Just because she's one of
    the Seven Ninja Swordsmen?
[05:04] ---
    Are you suggesting we take on
    Ameyuri Ringo?
[05:09] ---
    Well…
[05:11] ---
    That's not like you, Omoi.
[05:14] ---
    I thought you were
    the cautious type, just like me.
[05:23] ---
    War is not the place
    for revenge.
[05:25] ---
    And besides,
    we don't have a chance
[05:28] ---
    against someone with
    a Ninja Blade.
[05:30] ---
    They are like elephants and tigers.
    We're mere ants.
[05:35] ---
    Then why the hell are we here?!
[05:38] ---
    Don't get full of yourself, Omoi.
[05:40] ---
    Are you trying to be a hero now?
[05:45] ---
    In any case, I'm the leader now!
[05:48] ---
    We'll create a diversion for
    Ameyuri Ringo and make our escape.
[05:56] ---
    How boring… Not a single soul
    to give me a thrill.
[06:01] ---
    Oh, that's right.
[06:02] ---
    There were two or three
    more back there.
[06:05] ---
    Maybe they're more my type.
[06:20] ---
    That flash of lightning earlier…
[06:22] ---
    There's no doubt it was
    Ameyuri Ringo's Lightning Style.
[06:26] ---
    Damage of this scope,
    in an instant.
[06:28] ---
    Not even a hundred chunin
    could defeat her.
[06:32] ---
    Well, who knows…
[06:34] ---
    In a desperate moment like this,
[06:35] ---
    a hero could rise up
    from among them.
[06:37] ---
    Wishing for the survival of
    our scattered comrades
[06:40] ---
    is one thing.
[06:43] ---
    Hoping for a hero is
    just wishful thinking.
[06:47] ---
    Whatever the case,
    judging from the traces of battle,
[06:49] ---
    Ameyuri Ringo is headed north.
[06:52] ---
    There should be survivors
    beyond that.
[06:54] ---
    Let's hurry!
[06:58] ---
    Damn it… If we keep running
    and running…
[07:01] ---
    Pretty soon,
    we'll circle the globe.
[07:05] ---
    And if we keep circling
    the globe over and over again,
[07:08] ---
    we'll forget why the hell
    we're fighting.
[07:13] ---
    And no one will think
    that I'm still alive.
[07:17] ---
    I'll keep running and
    running until I die.
[07:20] ---
    If that's the case, then…
[07:23] ---
    Captain! Are we still gonna
    keep running away?
[07:27] ---
    If we keep running,
    maybe the reinforcements will arrive
[07:29] ---
    and take care of that bitch.
[07:32] ---
    Waiting for others to bail us out?!
[07:38] ---
    What are you doing?
[07:40] ---
    We have to make it look
    like we put up a fight…
[07:43] ---
    Otherwise, who knows what
    they'll say after the war.
[07:49] ---
    How stupid. Talk about ego…
[07:52] ---
    And this trap is so obvious!
[07:54] ---
    It's like telling the enemy exactly
    which way we're running.
[07:59] ---
    Nothing good's gonna come
    from following this guy!
[08:09] ---
    You can't run away from me.
[08:16] ---
    They call this a trap?
[08:18] ---
    They must think I'm stupid.
[08:27] ---
    I'm never going to let you go!
[08:32] ---
    Just who is
    this Ameyuri Ringo anyway?
[08:36] ---
    A woman known to be an exceptional user
    of the Lightning Style.
[08:39] ---
    Although she died young
    from an incurable disease,
[08:42] ---
    it's said she never lost her prey.
[08:46] ---
    There's no escaping her?
[08:48] ---
    That's enough, Kayui!
[08:52] ---
    Nurui!
[08:53] ---
    You knew this, and still…
[09:00] ---
    Here she comes!
[09:01] ---
    Damn it!
    She's faster than I thought.
[09:05] ---
    Of course, she's gonna catch up!
    This is such a lame strategy!
[09:22] ---
    We can't outrun her!
[09:23] ---
    Let's fight!
[09:24] ---
    No! It's no use!
[09:26] ---
    How far can we run?!
[09:28] ---
    She always gets her prey, right?!
[09:30] ---
    I know!
[09:32] ---
    Well, do you know that our lives
    are in your hands?!
[09:37] ---
    That's why we're retreating!
[09:39] ---
    How can you call yourself
    a shinobi?!
[09:41] ---
    Have you even thought about
    our fallen comrades?!
[09:44] ---
    Omoi! You don't understand Nurui!
[09:48] ---
    And Nurui, you too!
[09:50] ---
    Why don't…?!
[09:50] ---
    Shut up, Kayui!
[09:52] ---
    I've…
[09:54] ---
    had enough of running!
[10:03] ---
    Omoi…
[10:14] ---
    I know…about your reputation
    in the village, Nurui.
[10:19] ---
    Omoi! That's enough!
[10:22] ---
    That you being cautious is
    just to hide your cowardice!
[10:25] ---
    Well, I'm a cautious guy,
    but I'm no coward!
[10:28] ---
    Stop it, Omoi!
[10:29] ---
    Fighting is useless right now!
[10:31] ---
    We can't be heroes!
[10:35] ---
    The thought didn't even
    cross my mind!
[10:37] ---
    I just keep seeing Yurui's face
    as he was dying!
[10:46] ---
    And even if we escape somehow,
[10:48] ---
    I can't go on living with
    that image
[10:50] ---
    constantly flashing
    through my mind.
[10:56] ---
    Stop it, Omoi!
[10:57] ---
    Fighting is useless right now!
[10:59] ---
    We can't be heroes!
[11:02] ---
    The thought didn't even
    cross my mind!
[11:05] ---
    I just keep seeing Yurui's face
    as he was dying!
[11:11] ---
    And even if we escape somehow,
[11:13] ---
    I can't go on living with
    that image
[11:15] ---
    constantly flashing
    through my mind.
[11:18] ---
    Omoi!
[11:25] ---
    Looks like Ameyuri Ringo is
    still in pursuit of someone.
[11:31] ---
    This isn't good…
[11:33] ---
    There aren't any Allied Shinobi
    units beyond this point.
[11:38] ---
    The pursued are only making
    themselves more isolated.
[11:41] ---
    Let's hurry!
[11:45] ---
    Oh, here's one.
[11:47] ---
    Someone who's willing to face me!
[11:50] ---
    I'm avenging Yurui!
[12:01] ---
    What? Running away so soon?
[12:08] ---
    You were so worthless after—!
[12:13] ---
    Fooled ya!
[12:14] ---
    Cloud Style: Deception Slice!
[12:18] ---
    No one tricks me!
[12:20] ---
    Lightning Blade Jutsu!
    Thunderbolt!
[12:32] ---
    She's strong…
    If I'm gonna beat her,
[12:34] ---
    I have to use the one
    Bee taught me!
[12:38] ---
    My sword technique is
    one to behold!
[12:40] ---
    If you get 10,000 tickets sold,
[12:43] ---
    and if you come and watch me rap
    I'll help put your skill on the map.
[12:48] ---
    You'll really teach me
    your lethal blade technique?
[12:53] ---
    Hey, are there really 10,000 guys
    in the Hidden Cloud?
[12:57] ---
    To put it bluntly,
    your sword power and skill
[13:00] ---
    ain't too much of a thrill.
[13:02] ---
    Unlike my rapping
    which keeps feet a-stomping.
[13:06] ---
    In other words, you are saying
    I'm average?
[13:10] ---
    Except your Deception Slice
    which is divine.
[13:12] ---
    So polish that up and you'll be fine.
[13:16] ---
    Now this lesson is at
    the end of the line.
[13:18] ---
    So you're telling me to tweak
    my Deception Slice and make it better?
[13:24] ---
    Yeah!
[13:26] ---
    And the result of that is…
[13:28] ---
    Hidden Mist Slice.
[13:30] ---
    Still not giving up?
[13:32] ---
    At least you have some backbone.
[13:34] ---
    This sword style makes it difficult
    to read the path of the blade!
[13:43] ---
    I'm just beginning to
    execute this jutsu!
[13:47] ---
    My personal style…
    Hidden Mist Slice, Kai!
[13:51] ---
    Let's see you counter this!
[13:53] ---
    Huh? They're all decoys?!
[13:55] ---
    Gotcha!
[13:56] ---
    Lightning Style! Depth Charge!
[14:03] ---
    You're not bad at all.
[14:05] ---
    Most guys would be dead.
[14:08] ---
    Sorry, but I'm really strong.
[14:15] ---
    Omoi!
[14:20] ---
    I won't kill you just yet.
[14:22] ---
    Because I'm the type of person
[14:24] ---
    who saves the things
    I like to eat for last.
[14:28] ---
    Don't come!
[14:29] ---
    Nurui! Kayui!
[14:42] ---
    Nurui…
[14:51] ---
    Nurui!
[14:52] ---
    Are you all right, Nurui?!
[15:01] ---
    Did you have to act so foolishly?
[15:05] ---
    I'm sorry… For my sake…
[15:08] ---
    Damn right. Everything's ruined.
[15:13] ---
    Now listen carefully…
[15:17] ---
    Omoi…
[15:22] ---
    Found you!
[15:27] ---
    I won't let you get away.
[15:38] ---
    It's no good…
    I don't feel like I can win!
[15:40] ---
    More like, I can't beat her!
[15:45] ---
    Are you all right, Kayui?!
[15:48] ---
    Yes…
[15:50] ---
    Is there anyone else with you?
[15:52] ---
    Nurui and Omoi are up ahead…
[15:55] ---
    Ameyuri Ringo is there too, huh?
[15:58] ---
    And they're going to
    bring her down.
[16:02] ---
    Nurui was right.
[16:04] ---
    Running away was my only option!
[16:07] ---
    I'm no hero!
[16:09] ---
    How could I have been so stupid?!
[16:17] ---
    Now then, are you prepared?
[16:22] ---
    Fine… You want me to fight?
    I'll fight then.
[16:35] ---
    You're determined.
    I'll give you that.
[16:38] ---
    Please let us get there in time!
[16:41] ---
    I have to, I mean,
    we have to bring her down.
[16:47] ---
    Nurui… Yurui…
[16:49] ---
    Bring me down?
[16:52] ---
    Are you still talking nonsense?
[16:54] ---
    I planned to lick you
    from the beginning!
[16:57] ---
    'Cuz my flavor today is apple candy
    and your name means just that!
[17:02] ---
    Bring it on with
    your strongest jutsu!
[17:18] ---
    Too bad!
    And you were my type too.
[17:23] ---
    Lightning Style: Thunder Gate!
[17:36] ---
    What is this?!
[17:39] ---
    You trapped me?!
[17:41] ---
    This is actually a bottomless marsh.
[17:44] ---
    Once you're stuck,
    you'll never get out.
[17:47] ---
    And you're coming with me?
[17:50] ---
    What a gentleman!
[17:54] ---
    Yurui was my friend.
[17:57] ---
    I'm the one who let
    personal feelings interfere.
[18:00] ---
    I wanted to avenge Yurui…
[18:05] ---
    There was only one way
    for us to beat her.
[18:11] ---
    There is a bottomless marsh
    up ahead.
[18:13] ---
    It's been covered with
    an Earth Style lid.
[18:16] ---
    If she uses her Lightning Style there,
[18:18] ---
    she'll sink into
    this bottomless marsh.
[18:21] ---
    I planned to lure her there.
[18:25] ---
    Yurui, Kayui and I had made
    a number of traps
[18:29] ---
    in preparation for a big battle.
[18:33] ---
    So you…weren't running away?
[18:37] ---
    Omoi, I know the limits
    of my strength.
[18:42] ---
    But my plan won't work.
    You must run away.
[18:46] ---
    I'll stop Ameyuri Ringo here.
[18:51] ---
    You can't in your condition!
[18:54] ---
    And besides, there's no
    running away from her, right?!
[19:02] ---
    Stop… Omoi…
[19:07] ---
    Omoi!
[19:10] ---
    Kakashi! Guy!
[19:15] ---
    We made it in time.
[19:18] ---
    Pull him out.
[19:26] ---
    Weren't you going to
    come with me?
[19:30] ---
    Sorry, maybe another time.
[19:34] ---
    In my next life, I'll remember
    to eat what I like first.
[19:38] ---
    You won't be
    reincarnated anymore.
[19:42] ---
    Here's a farewell gift from me…
[19:45] ---
    Thank you.
[19:48] ---
    Omoi… My name's Omoi.
[19:51] ---
    Omoi…
[19:58] ---
    That's a thank-you gift
    from me.
[20:01] ---
    I'll be waiting for you
    on the other side.
[20:09] ---
    You did well, Omoi.
    You're a hero.
[20:13] ---
    The real hero…is you.
[20:18] ---
    So there are new heroes,
    after all.
[20:23] ---
    It's always a heartwarming sight…
[20:25] ---
    This deep bond between men.
[20:28] ---
    Kakashi, Guy…
    Listen up.
[20:30] ---
    I wanted to give you
    advance notice.
[20:33] ---
    Naruto and Bee are heading
    to the battlefront.
[20:36] ---
    It seems nothing worked
    to convince Naruto.
[20:39] ---
    So, we're going to use
    this opportunity to turn this war around!
[20:43] ---
    Over and out!
[20:46] ---
    Did you hear that, Kakashi?
[20:49] ---
    Yeah… They're finally on the move.
[20:54] ---
    The heroes we've waited
    so long for.
[22:39] ---
    Since days long past,
    
    
[22:40] ---
    that location has been
    a site reserved for sacred use.
    
    
[22:42] ---
    And it's been referred to
    as "The Hole."
    
    
[22:44] ---
    The villagers charged with taking care
    of the site have been slaughtered.
    
    
[22:47] ---
    – What?
    – That's so…!
    
    
[22:48] ---
    Locate the perpetrator
    
    
[22:50] ---
    and mete out
    the appropriate punishment!
    
    
[22:52] ---
    – All right!
    – Yes, ma'am!
    
    
[22:55] ---
    Next Time on
    Naruto Shippuden: "Power - Episode 1"
[23:00] ---
    It's been a while, Naruto…
    
    
[23:05] ---
    Tune in again!
