[00:20] ---
    Hang on!
[00:21] ---
    Bring me a hemostat! Quickly.
[00:22] ---
    Sakura…
[00:27] ---
    Yugao, take her away.
[00:30] ---
    All right.
[00:53] ---
    Digital Shrapnel!
[01:04] ---
    Damn it!
[01:08] ---
    Fang Over Fang!
[01:09] ---
    – 8 Trigrams Air Palm!
    – 8 Trigrams Air Palm!
[01:11] ---
    Beetle Sphere!
[01:25] ---
    I would say the body count
    has increased by now.
[01:29] ---
    I guess I'll begin.
[03:02] ---
    Fade into the Moonlight
    
    
[03:10] ---
    Are you awake?
[03:16] ---
    Well? Did you miss this world?
[03:20] ---
    You're…
[03:23] ---
    Kabuto Yakushi!
[03:27] ---
    Show a little discretion, will you?
[03:30] ---
    Keep in mind that
    I'm now your master.
[03:34] ---
    What…happened to me?
[03:42] ---
    Oh…
[03:44] ---
    You smell blood?
[03:47] ---
    It's not just ten or twenty…
    Is this war?
[03:51] ---
    Don't tell me Hidden Leaf Village…!
[03:53] ---
    It's so funny when there's
    a time lapse with you dead people.
[03:58] ---
    The destruction of the Hidden Leaf
    Village ended long ago.
[04:01] ---
    What's going on with
    the Hidden Leaf?
[04:04] ---
    That doesn't concern
    someone dead like you.
[04:08] ---
    Anyway, the war is entering
    the middle stages
[04:12] ---
    and working alone is boring.
[04:16] ---
    So I don't mind
    keeping you company.
[04:20] ---
    The last thing I remember is that
    I was tailing you, Orochimaru's spy.
[04:26] ---
    That was three years ago.
[04:28] ---
    Under Lord Orochimaru's order,
[04:31] ---
    I acted as his liaison with
    the Hidden Sand.
[04:35] ---
    That was about a month before
    the destruction of the Leaf.
[04:45] ---
    You're late.
[04:46] ---
    You're the one
    who requested this meeting.
[04:49] ---
    My apologies.
[04:50] ---
    I had to check the area to
    make sure I was not seen.
[04:55] ---
    The same goes for us.
[04:58] ---
    We can't afford
    any leaks whatsoever.
[05:02] ---
    Now, hand over the plans and
    whatever else you have.
[05:07] ---
    First, I need to verify…
[05:10] ---
    Is he the one?
[05:12] ---
    What's your intent?
[05:14] ---
    No… We the Sound value
    the Sand as partners.
[05:21] ---
    However, for this endeavor,
[05:24] ---
    the Sand dispatched
    only four including you.
[05:27] ---
    You don't trust us, do you?
[05:30] ---
    No such thing.
    But if something happens,
[05:32] ---
    we're going to have to
    watch each other's backs.
[05:35] ---
    That's why we want to
    make sure about him,
[05:38] ---
    since he's the key to our plans.
[05:42] ---
    Oh, it seems he's here.
[05:46] ---
    What a fool! He'll be killed!
[05:55] ---
    I give up…
    Don't you ever sleep?
[06:00] ---
    What do you want?
[06:02] ---
    To be blunt, I was planning
    on taking you out,
[06:06] ---
    to change the match-up
    in the finals.
[06:09] ---
    That would open up the possibility
    of me fighting Sasuke.
[06:15] ---
    I know all about your Sand attack.
[06:18] ---
    Which is faster, I wonder?
    Your sand or my sound?
[06:21] ---
    Not feeling too well?
[06:24] ---
    Then I'll put you out of
    your misery real quickly.
[06:29] ---
    Don't get riled…
[06:36] ---
    His blood…
    goes wild during a full moon.
[06:51] ---
    Just what the hell…are you?!
[06:59] ---
    So you are the ultimate weapon
    of the Sand.
[07:04] ---
    However, I cannot let you
    have Sasuke.
[07:08] ---
    For Lord Orochimaru's sake.
[07:16] ---
    This is bad
[07:18] ---
    I have to find an opportunity
    to get out of here.
[07:27] ---
    So fast!
[07:40] ---
    I see. So this is the One Tail!
[07:46] ---
    I don't believe it.
[07:48] ---
    A Tailed Beast,
    brought into this village…!
[07:53] ---
    There's no denying its power.
[07:56] ---
    But are you able to control it?
[07:59] ---
    At that level, yes.
[08:01] ---
    But when the One Tail
    transforms completely
[08:03] ---
    and activates
    his Playing Possum Jutsu,
[08:06] ---
    there's no stopping him.
[08:07] ---
    Fine. So don't agitate him now.
[08:12] ---
    I'll look forward to seeing him
    run amuck when the time is right.
[08:15] ---
    But are you all right with what happened?
    He's one of the Sound's—
[08:18] ---
    I'm sure. He outlived
    his usefulness long ago.
[08:22] ---
    I thought you would use him
    to observe how strong this Sasuke is.
[08:27] ---
    There's no need for that.
[08:29] ---
    I have already been ordered
    to recapture Sasuke.
[08:33] ---
    But I failed…
[08:38] ---
    What?!
[08:39] ---
    Yes…
[08:41] ---
    The fact that I was working
    for the Sound was exposed.
[08:44] ---
    I understood that
    you're Orochimaru's right-hand man.
[08:48] ---
    Now the Hidden Leaf
    know who you are,
[08:50] ---
    and you had the gall to come
    and meet me?
[08:52] ---
    What kind of fool are you?
[08:54] ---
    Oh no…
    I should put it another way.
[08:57] ---
    They didn't find out my real identity…
[08:59] ---
    I let them find out.
[09:02] ---
    I want to see what actions
    the Hidden Leaf take.
[09:07] ---
    From the start,
    this has been the Sound's plan.
[09:10] ---
    The Sand will only act
    behind the scenes.
[09:12] ---
    That is Lord Kazekage's wish.
[09:16] ---
    What on earth?!
[09:20] ---
    Here are our plans.
[09:25] ---
    It's about time we let them in
    on this plan.
[09:30] ---
    The Sand, an Allied Nation,
    has been colluding with the Sound?!
[09:37] ---
    By the way,
    I'll clean up things here.
[09:42] ---
    No, I can take care of it.
[09:46] ---
    There's just one rat.
    Piece of cake.
[09:58] ---
    Something isn't sitting right.
[10:01] ---
    You were there at the location.
[10:03] ---
    Why didn't you help the Sand?
[10:06] ---
    It didn't matter to me who died.
[10:10] ---
    Baki didn't have the strength to
    stop the One Tail's rampage.
[10:16] ---
    There are always
    replacements available.
[10:19] ---
    Besides, at that time,
[10:20] ---
    the Sound didn't have
    an effective intel route to the Sand.
[10:25] ---
    The Sand easily disavowed
    their alliance with the Hidden Leaf.
[10:31] ---
    To keep tabs on
    the Sand's true intentions,
[10:33] ---
    it didn't hurt to have a corpse.
[10:39] ---
    I drafted a temporary report on
    the status of each company.
[10:43] ---
    Casualties spiked up during the night.
[10:47] ---
    I hesitate to bring this up, but…
[10:51] ---
    The bodies of the shinobi are
    full of secret information.
[10:53] ---
    If those bodies get into
    the hands of the enemy,
[10:55] ---
    DNA data could be taken…
[10:57] ---
    In a worst-case scenario,
[10:58] ---
    the enemy will use their jutsu to
    turn them into military weapons.
[11:01] ---
    There's no need to worry
    about that!
[11:03] ---
    I've taken care of it.
[11:05] ---
    But there are many corpses
    on the battlefield
[11:08] ---
    that cannot be recovered…
[11:12] ---
    These three are the bodies
    of elite shinobi. I'm certain.
[11:15] ---
    Then I'll place them into
    safekeeping immediately.
[11:17] ---
    Thank you.
[11:20] ---
    This one too. He's an elite.
[11:23] ---
    All right.
    Please line him up over there.
[11:26] ---
    All right.
[11:28] ---
    The ones with Kekkei Genkai
    and their relatives,
[11:31] ---
    and those families with
    special ninjutsu abilities,
[11:34] ---
    are being given highest priority
    in handling and safekeeping.
[11:39] ---
    When everything is over,
[11:40] ---
    SPECIAL
    
    we'll send them back to their villages
    with the rest of the deceased.
[11:55] ---
    I'll be returning.
[11:57] ---
    Thank you very much.
[12:05] ---
    She's very skillful and efficient.
[12:07] ---
    Well, word is that Miss Yugao
    used to belong
[12:09] ---
    to the ANBU Black Ops.
[12:11] ---
    A former ANBU?
    Why's someone like that here?
[12:14] ---
    I don't know. But it helps.
[12:27] ---
    Corpses make such useful tools.
[12:30] ---
    You can revive them and
    get information.
[12:33] ---
    You can use them as weapons.
[12:36] ---
    You can get unusual data
    from their flesh.
[12:39] ---
    Although, I wasn't able to
    get Baki's corpse back then.
[13:29] ---
    You're mine!
[13:44] ---
    How unexpected.
[13:46] ---
    I thought that it would
    be settled right away.
[13:50] ---
    I have to say…
[13:52] ---
    That proctor was very slick,
    slipping past me.
[13:59] ---
    He's sheathing his sword?!
[14:01] ---
    Leaf Style…
[14:06] ---
    Crescent Moon Dance!
[14:17] ---
    It won't come loose!
[14:18] ---
    Your swordsmanship
    is impressive.
[14:20] ---
    However, the blow from
    a real sword can be stopped.
[14:25] ---
    But…
[14:28] ---
    a Wind Sword cannot be stopped,
    no matter who you are!
[14:49] ---
    How unfortunate.
    You should have tried a little harder.
[14:54] ---
    But, oh well, considering
    your jutsu wasn't compatible,
[14:58] ---
    you fought a good fight.
[15:01] ---
    Maybe sometime in the future,
    you'll be useful.
[15:10] ---
    It's so quiet.
[15:12] ---
    The report said it was around here.
[15:23] ---
    Hey, you!
[15:24] ---
    We got a report that
[15:26] ---
    there was something that
    sounded like a skirmish around here.
[15:28] ---
    Do you know anything?
[15:29] ---
    I'm sorry. I'm just passing through.
[15:33] ---
    I see…
[15:35] ---
    Because of the upcoming
    Chunin Exam,
[15:37] ---
    there have been
    a lot of disturbing rumors.
[15:41] ---
    C'mon! Let's go.
[15:44] ---
    You'd better get out
    of here quickly too.
[15:46] ---
    Thank you for your concern.
[15:50] ---
    I completely erased the smell.
[15:53] ---
    It'll be a while before
    the body is discovered.
[15:56] ---
    If I return and get caught,
    that would be a pain.
[15:59] ---
    Oh well…
    Just his hair should be sufficient.
[16:05] ---
    After that, during the final round
    of the Chunin Exam,
[16:08] ---
    the One Tail went on a rampage
[16:09] ---
    and descended upon
    the Hidden Leaf.
[16:14] ---
    And what happened to the Leaf?
[16:16] ---
    Regrettably, they're still around.
[16:21] ---
    The world has changed drastically.
[16:25] ---
    The Third Hokage died
    in that battle…
[16:28] ---
    Three years later,
    Sasuke got rid of Lord Orochimaru…
[16:32] ---
    And I gained new powers.
[16:48] ---
    Are you still an enemy of the Leaf?
[16:50] ---
    Yes.
[16:51] ---
    And right now,
    you're on the same side as me.
[16:54] ---
    You're a pawn that I resurrected.
[17:04] ---
    Presently, the Five Great Shinobi Nations
    have formed an alliance
[17:06] ---
    and a terrible war rages on.
[17:09] ---
    It is an all-out war
    with every village
[17:10] ---
    committing every man available.
[17:12] ---
    What a great opportunity
    to collect samples!
[17:17] ---
    And this is where you come in.
[17:27] ---
    May I ask you a question?
[17:29] ---
    I'm just a little curious…
[17:32] ---
    If it's a simple question.
[17:34] ---
    I understand you were once
    a member of the ANBU Black Ops.
[17:37] ---
    With such skill, what are you
    doing helping in the medical camp?
[17:45] ---
    Every company is shorthanded now.
[17:48] ---
    Someone like you…
[17:49] ---
    I… I can't fight anymore.
[17:55] ---
    Yugao…
[17:57] ---
    I'll be right there!
[17:59] ---
    Please wait.
[18:00] ---
    Right now,
    this work is what's best for me.
[18:03] ---
    You should return to
    your station quickly too—
[18:05] ---
    What was that?!
[18:06] ---
    That explosion…
    It was from the vault!
[18:25] ---
    That man is…
[18:27] ---
    Hayate?!
[18:35] ---
    Yugao!
[18:39] ---
    The scroll he has is the KIA list!
[18:44] ---
    The bodies of the elite shinobi
    have been taken!
[18:46] ---
    Get them back!
[18:47] ---
    – Right!
    – Right!
[19:01] ---
    Do not flinch!
[19:07] ---
    Not!
[19:18] ---
    Get a taste of this!
[19:25] ---
    This is fun!
[19:27] ---
    That's enough. Let's go!
[19:41] ---
    Where's Shizune?
[19:42] ---
    She just went into surgery.
[19:45] ---
    All right.
[19:46] ---
    Notify HQ about this immediately.
[19:48] ---
    And get the wounded inside the tent!
[19:51] ---
    Right!
[19:52] ---
    As for the scrolls
    with the bodies of the elite…
[19:55] ---
    I saw the faces of the assailants.
[19:57] ---
    I believe one of them
[19:59] ---
    was a Hidden Leaf Special Jonin…
    Hayate Gekko.
[20:02] ---
    I see…
[20:03] ---
    This medical tent
    must be guarded too.
[20:06] ---
    Looking at the situation,
    we can't spare many people.
[20:10] ---
    We'll have to contact HQ
    and ask them to send reinforcements.
[20:13] ---
    But Iou, Yokaze, will you two go?
[20:16] ---
    – Yes.
    – Yes.
[20:18] ---
    I'll go too.
[20:19] ---
    My battle and healing skills
    will increase
[20:21] ---
    the odds of success for this mission.
[20:24] ---
    Thanks. Also, Yugao…
    I want you to go too.
[20:27] ---
    Huh?!
[20:28] ---
    I know that you are not part
    of the combat force.
[20:31] ---
    But a Sensory-type is essential
    in order to track the enemy.
[20:34] ---
    You're the only one available now—
[20:35] ---
    That's impossible! I can't…
[20:38] ---
    Yugao?
[20:39] ---
    This is an emergency.
    State your reason!
[20:44] ---
    That man…
[20:46] ---
    Hayate Gekko…
[20:54] ---
    was my lover.
[22:37] ---
    Yugao, you've come.
    
    
[22:40] ---
    Hayate…
    
    
[22:42] ---
    I'm now an enemy of the Leaf…
    also an enemy of yours.
    
    
[22:46] ---
    So I want you to stop me.
    
    
[22:49] ---
    I don't want to hurt you… Please!
    
    
[22:52] ---
    I can't… I just can't!
    
    
[22:55] ---
    Next time on Naruto Shippuden:
    "Night of the Crescent Moon"
    
    
[22:59] ---
    Kill me, Yugao!
[23:01] ---
    NIGHT OF
    THE CRESCENT MOON
    
    
[23:05] ---
    Tune in again!
