**[00:03] ---**
Who are you aiming at?
**[00:11] ---**
You're too fast for our attacks!
**[00:16] ---**
I'll say it again.
**[00:17] ---**
I am a Lightning Style User.
**[00:19] ---**
When I arm myself with
the Lightning Style,
**[00:21] ---**
my speed and defensive power exceed
the normal limits of my body.
**[00:26] ---**
Unless you attack with
the Wind Style,
**[00:29] ---**
you will never be able
to take me down.
**[00:31] ---**
The trouble is,
we can't land a blow even with that!
**[00:34] ---**
No, wait…
**[00:37] ---**
Wind Style Unit!
Attack Formation C!
**[00:40] ---**
Right!
**[00:40] ---**
Here we go!
**[00:41] ---**
Humph! Instead of doing it quietly,
**[00:44] ---**
she announces how
they're going to attack.
**[00:46] ---**
Group Wind Style Jutsu!
**[00:50] ---**
Wind Style: Casting Net!
**[00:56] ---**
A wide-range jutsu
to overtake my speed…
**[01:03] ---**
Splendid!
**[01:07] ---**
All right! We'll surround him
all at once!
**[03:08] ---**
*Paradox*
**[03:19] ---**
No matter how many times
we attack, there's no effect!
**[03:21] ---**
We haven't inflicted any damage!
**[03:35] ---**
*Our only choice is to batter him*
*with consecutive top-speed Blade Dance!*
**[03:48] ---**
Is that you, Dodai?
**[03:50] ---**
Yes.
**[03:54] ---**
The Third Lord Raikage was a shinobi
**[03:56] ---**
blessed not only with
strength and speed,
**[03:58] ---**
but also with extraordinary
physical resilience.
**[04:02] ---**
Even long-distance Wind Style attacks,
which should reach him,
**[04:06] ---**
do not affect him.
**[04:08] ---**
We need an even more
powerful Wind Style User.
**[04:11] ---**
I'm a pretty good
Wind Style User myself.
**[04:15] ---**
So how did he actually die?
**[04:21] ---**
In order to save his comrades…
**[04:23] ---**
He used himself as a decoy
and faced 10,000 enemy troops alone.
**[04:28] ---**
It's said he stood for three days
and three nights
**[04:31] ---**
in order to buy enough time to
let his comrades escape.
**[04:39] ---**
I need this one to
buy me some time…
**[04:42] ---**
while I finish summoning him.
**[04:45] ---**
Guess I'll just have to take over.
**[04:49] ---**
Honestly, among the Allied Forces,
**[04:51] ---**
there isn't a stronger
Wind Style User than me.
**[04:53] ---**
There is!
**[05:01] ---**
It's me!
**[05:09] ---**
*What?! Is that Naruto?!*
*What is he doing here?*
**[05:15] ---**
*That feels like Wind Style!*
*Is it a new Rasengan?*
**[05:19] ---**
*With this jutsu,*
*it just might work if it hits!*
**[05:30] ---**
No! That's not good enough!
**[05:32] ---**
Not with his Cloak of Lightning…
**[05:33] ---**
I know! Raikage are
always super fast!
**[05:41] ---**
*That's what he was aiming for!*
**[05:51] ---**
*It's no use!*
*He dodged it again!*
**[05:53] ---**
*We have to distract him,*
*or it won't hit him!*
**[05:59] ---**
*Okay! When it comes back…*
**[06:04] ---**
*At this distance…*
**[06:06] ---**
It's gonna hit!
**[06:19] ---**
*That Wind Style is strong!*
**[06:22] ---**
*This will work…*
**[06:23] ---**
Now, Sealing Corps! Hurry!
**[06:26] ---**
Right!
**[06:30] ---**
All right!
**[06:36] ---**
W-What?!
**[06:44] ---**
Third Raikage…
**[06:45] ---**
You are so strong,
it's frightening…
**[06:56] ---**
*I don't believe it.*
**[06:57] ---**
*Rasen Shuriken didn't work?!*
**[07:03] ---**
The look in Lord Raikage's eyes
has changed…
**[07:06] ---**
He's been completely taken over.
**[07:13] ---**
That's…?!
**[07:15] ---**
Everyone, get away from
the Third Raikage!
**[07:17] ---**
Earth Style Shinobi,
form a wall immediately!
**[07:21] ---**
Everyone, link up!
**[07:22] ---**
– Right!
– Right!
**[07:24] ---**
– Earth Style: Great Mud Wall!
– Earth Style: Great Mud Wall!
**[07:39] ---**
Disperse!
**[07:41] ---**
Come with me, Naruto!
**[07:52] ---**
Lava Style: Rubber Wall!
**[07:57] ---**
What the—?!
**[07:58] ---**
That was the Third Raikage's
most lethal ninjutsu…
**[08:00] ---**
The Piercing Four-Fingered
Thrust of Hell!
**[08:03] ---**
He accumulates Lightning Chakra
in his fingertip and strikes…
**[08:06] ---**
This thrust technique complements
the Lightning Style.
**[08:09] ---**
*Just like Kakashi Sensei's Lightning Blade*
*and Sasuke's Chidori.*
**[08:19] ---**
Everyone, get as far away
as possible, now!
**[08:22] ---**
No! If we know where he'll appear,
we should aim for that spot all together!
**[08:27] ---**
Everyone, stand by!
**[08:29] ---**
It's payback time for all
the times we missed!
**[08:33] ---**
Stop! Listen to the Cloud Shinobi!
**[08:42] ---**
Get him!
**[08:52] ---**
Damn it!
**[08:56] ---**
Fools!
**[09:09] ---**
He's switched to
the Three-Fingered Assault!
**[09:11] ---**
What kind of jutsu is it anyway?
**[09:14] ---**
It's way too powerful!
**[09:16] ---**
He took dozens down in
an instant, all by himself!
**[09:19] ---**
The fewer the fingers he uses,
the more focused the energy and
**[09:22] ---**
the more powerful the Thrusts of Hell!
**[09:24] ---**
It's the Third's Invincible Spear!
**[09:27] ---**
And he can handle it with
his impermeable body.
**[09:30] ---**
It's his ultimate shield!
**[09:33] ---**
Is that old man even human…?
**[09:36] ---**
They say he is the only shinobi
to have ever been able
**[09:38] ---**
to go head to head with a Tailed Beast,
unarmored and unarmed!
**[09:41] ---**
No way!
**[09:44] ---**
*Raikage are amazing!*
**[09:50] ---**
Huh?
**[09:52] ---**
What's the matter?
**[09:53] ---**
So what's up with that?
**[09:56] ---**
With what?
**[09:57] ---**
Look at that…
The scar on his chest!
**[10:01] ---**
If his body's the ultimate shield,
how'd he get that?
**[10:08] ---**
He didn't even flinch against
my Rasen Shuriken!
**[10:11] ---**
Oh, that…
**[10:13] ---**
Once, the Third Raikage helped everyone
get away from the Eight Tails
**[10:17] ---**
by stopping its rampage
all by himself.
**[10:20] ---**
Then the Eight Tails hurt him?
**[10:23] ---**
He called that the most
shameful incident of his life.
**[10:27] ---**
One that he never spoke about…
**[10:32] ---**
Not even the Fourth Raikage knows.
**[10:34] ---**
Okay, I get that ordinary attacks
won't hurt him.
**[10:39] ---**
But if he got hurt fighting
the Eight Tails,
**[10:42] ---**
then the Eight Tails' strongest jutsu is…
**[10:47] ---**
*Speaking of the Eight Tails…!*
**[10:49] ---**
*Tailed Beast Bomb!*
**[11:19] ---**
What'll we do, Lady Temari?!
**[11:21] ---**
Even that hero, Naruto, couldn't
take him down…
**[11:24] ---**
Huh?! Naruto?
**[11:26] ---**
You mean the hero of
the Hidden Leaf?
**[11:28] ---**
Where? Where?
Which one is he?
**[11:31] ---**
Where were you looking, Yukata?!
**[11:33] ---**
He's the one who just released
that flashy Wind Style Jutsu!
**[11:37] ---**
Huh?!
**[11:38] ---**
But that guy's about
the same age as us!
**[11:42] ---**
Yes! At his age, he managed
to defeat Pain of the Akatsuki!
**[11:47] ---**
So how can we beat an enemy that
even the hero of the Hidden Leaf can't?
**[11:52] ---**
That's what I'm trying to
figure out right now!
**[11:55] ---**
You two can't use
long-distance Wind Style!
**[11:58] ---**
So go away, it's dangerous!
**[12:00] ---**
– R-Right!
– R-Right!
**[12:05] ---**
*So what'll we do?*
**[12:07] ---**
*Even Naruto's Rasengan couldn't*
*inflict serious damage.*
**[12:11] ---**
*How do we fight the Raikage?*
**[12:14] ---**
*We have to consider retreating.*
**[12:16] ---**
*What a nuisance these Kage are…*
*even one who's by himself.*
**[12:19] ---**
*This is the ideal time since*
*they're separated.*
**[12:22] ---**
*If we retreat and allow him to join up*
*with the other Kage, it will get worse.*
**[12:29] ---**
*What to do? What to do?*
**[12:32] ---**
W-What's this I'm feeling?
**[12:34] ---**
Is Naruto trying another jutsu
or something?
**[12:42] ---**
*Th-This is the Tailed Beast Bomb…*
*The same as the Eight Tails'!*
**[12:45] ---**
*He's holding a mass of chakra*
*this heavy in his human form?!*
**[12:49] ---**
*Is this even possible?*
**[13:10] ---**
*I figured it was impossible.*
**[13:13] ---**
What?! What happened?!
**[13:16] ---**
Damn it!
**[13:18] ---**
It still didn't work!
**[13:20] ---**
*His cloak of chakra is gone.*
**[13:22] ---**
*He overdid it…*
**[13:24] ---**
Lady Temari!
**[13:25] ---**
The enemy has broken through
our ranks! Many are hurt!
**[13:28] ---**
Everyone, hurry and gather the wounded!
**[13:31] ---**
Notify the Medical Team!
**[13:32] ---**
Tell all to maintain
a standby position at a distance—!
**[13:41] ---**
Are you all right?!
**[13:42] ---**
Hey, hang on!
**[13:43] ---**
Hey, Bendy Guy!
**[13:45] ---**
I need to get a hold of Octopops
and Eight Tails right away!
**[13:48] ---**
How do I reach them?!
**[13:50] ---**
Go through the Com Corps and
**[13:52] ---**
have Intel Unit Captain Inoichi
Yamanaka connect you with Bee.
**[13:57] ---**
I just have to look for
a Com Corps Shinobi, huh?
**[14:00] ---**
You're in luck.
**[14:01] ---**
Huh?!
**[14:02] ---**
I'm with the Com Corps.
**[14:05] ---**
All right!
**[14:06] ---**
Naruto! Watch out!
**[14:19] ---**
*He's withdrawn*
*his Three-Fingered Assault!*
**[14:20] ---**
*He's aiming for a KO with a punch.*
**[14:27] ---**
*Lava Style: Rubber Sphere!*
**[14:35] ---**
*Lord Dodai of the Hidden Cloud!*
*What do you need?*
**[14:38] ---**
*Naruto needs to speak to*
*Bee and Eight Tails.*
**[14:41] ---**
*Please contact them immediately!*
**[14:44] ---**
*While the Third Raikage is still chasing*
*after the dummy Rubber Ball!*
**[14:49] ---**
*He made it look like*
*he had me inside that ball,*
**[14:52] ---**
*but he pulled me out and*
*hid me behind a boulder!*
**[14:55] ---**
*Bendy Guy thinks fast!*
**[14:59] ---**
Thanks, Bendy Guy!
**[15:00] ---**
Now I'll have time to talk
to Octopops!
**[15:09] ---**
He'll probably catch on right away!
**[15:12] ---**
Remember, you don't have much time!
**[15:14] ---**
Yeah!
**[15:18] ---**
*Naruto, you want to talk*
*to Bee and Eight Tails,*
**[15:22] ---**
*but aren't they nearby?*
**[15:24] ---**
*You're supposed to*
*be working together.*
**[15:26] ---**
*They're not here now. Besides…*
**[15:29] ---**
*Never mind, hurry and*
*contact them please!*
**[15:33] ---**
*There's no time!*
**[15:55] ---**
Naruto's gone on ahead!
**[15:57] ---**
Hurry up and finish your business!
**[15:59] ---**
How long is it going to take?!
**[16:01] ---**
The urge to go pee is
beyond one's control…y'see?
**[16:06] ---**
*Octopops, it's me, Naruto!*
**[16:09] ---**
*I have to ask Eight Tails something!*
**[16:12] ---**
*Put him on!*
**[16:14] ---**
Relieving oneself takes concentration.
So let me focus on urination.
**[16:19] ---**
I can't talk now…
**[16:21] ---**
*I'm here, Naruto! What's going on?*
**[16:24] ---**
*You seem to be in a panic!*
**[16:26] ---**
*Hey, Eight Tails…*
**[16:27] ---**
*You've fought the Third Raikage*
*before, right?*
**[16:31] ---**
*Yeah, long ago.*
**[16:33] ---**
*He was solid and*
*could take the blows.*
**[16:37] ---**
*Once, he used this move called*
*the One-Fingered Assault*
**[16:40] ---**
*and cut off all my tails.*
**[16:43] ---**
*How did you manage to scar*
*Gramps Raikage on the chest?*
**[16:47] ---**
*Huh?!*
**[16:48] ---**
*Maybe it was my Tailed Beast Bomb?*
**[16:51] ---**
*No, maybe it wasn't…*
**[16:53] ---**
*We were pushing against*
*each other with all our might,*
**[16:56] ---**
*and we both fell forward.*
**[16:58] ---**
*I don't quite remember.*
**[17:23] ---**
*Maybe…*
**[17:29] ---**
*Hey thanks, Eight Tails!*
**[17:32] ---**
Shadow Clone Jutsu!
**[17:34] ---**
*What? Is this different*
*from the one earlier?!*
**[17:38] ---**
Gramps Raikage is headed this way.
**[17:41] ---**
When he gets here,
get out of the way, Bendy Guy!
**[17:43] ---**
There's something I want to try.
**[17:48] ---**
Got it.
**[17:56] ---**
Rasengan!
**[18:00] ---**
Everyone! Do not assist!
**[18:03] ---**
Sealing Corps! Stand by!
**[18:05] ---**
Right!
**[18:07] ---**
*I don't know*
*what he's planning,*
**[18:09] ---**
*but that's just a Rasengan!*
**[18:11] ---**
*Is that going to be enough?*
**[18:18] ---**
*His Invincible Spear will cut*
*through Naruto's arms and legs.*
**[18:22] ---**
*I'll have him brought back*
*to me half-dead.*
**[18:27] ---**
*Sage Mode: Frog Kumite!*
**[18:29] ---**
*With this, I can sense danger*
*over a wider range, and it's faster!*
**[18:32] ---**
*So I'll be able to counter*
*at the last minute…*
**[18:40] ---**
*And aim straight for his arm!*
**[19:04] ---**
Just like I thought!
**[19:07] ---**
*I see… That's how he got*
*that scar on his chest!*
**[19:21] ---**
– We did it!
– We did it!
**[19:23] ---**
All right! Way to go, Naruto!
**[19:26] ---**
Yes!
**[19:28] ---**
That was sharp of you!
**[19:30] ---**
Eight Tails told me that they were
pushing as hard as they could,
**[19:34] ---**
then fell forward.
**[19:37] ---**
I figured that he must've fallen
on his own hand.
**[19:42] ---**
He injured himself.
That's why it was so embarrassing.
**[19:47] ---**
He was the shinobi with
the ultimate spear and shield…
**[19:51] ---**
What a paradox.
**[19:54] ---**
Lord Third's spear was stronger,
it seems…
**[19:57] ---**
Yeah!
**[20:03] ---**
Probably the shinobi with
the greatest shield is Gaara!
**[20:17] ---**
I always knew you'd be Tsuchikage.
**[20:21] ---**
But look at you now…
An old man riddled with back pain.
**[20:26] ---**
I'll admit that was a punch
with some power to it…
**[20:29] ---**
but you overdid it and
strained your back!
**[20:31] ---**
Anyway! Hurry up and run!
**[20:34] ---**
I'm about to use
the Hozuki Clan's Water Gun Jutsu!
**[22:37] ---**
You were cooperative
until just now!
**[22:40] ---**
What happened? Have you decided
to side with the enemy?
**[22:43] ---**
I am a former Kage, after all.
**[22:46] ---**
I am helping you out…
Just in a different way.
**[22:49] ---**
Which is what exactly?
**[22:51] ---**
If you can't win against me
using all of your abilities,
**[22:53] ---**
that means you're less
than dead old me, you fool!
**[22:55] ---**
Next time on Naruto Shippuden:
"Terror: The Steam Imp"
**[23:00] ---**
How are you gonna win against
the enemy boss like that?!
TERROR: THE STEAM IMP
**[23:03] ---**
TERROR: THE STEAM IMP
**[23:05] ---**
Tune in again!
