[00:08] ---
    Aren't you going to eat?
[00:11] ---
    Oh, well…
[00:14] ---
    This brings back
    some bitter memories.
[00:33] ---
    Are you all right?
[00:34] ---
    He's a strong Taijutsu User.
[00:37] ---
    Well, I'm here now,
    so rest assured.
[00:40] ---
    And…there!
[00:42] ---
    Hello.
[00:46] ---
    You're Old Master Chen!
[00:48] ---
    Huh?! The one known as
    the ultimate Taijutsu User?!
[00:51] ---
    He's the Hidden Leaf hero
[00:53] ---
    who died during
    the Third Great Ninja War!
[00:55] ---
    So I'm famous, eh?
[00:59] ---
    Back then, I could only observe you
    from afar.
[01:02] ---
    As a Taijutsu User,
[01:04] ---
    it is indeed a great honor to
    be able to battle with you.
[01:07] ---
    I'm being manipulated…
[01:09] ---
    I won't be able to show any mercy.
[01:11] ---
    I'd like nothing better!
[01:15] ---
    Great Leaf Hurricane!
[01:18] ---
    Great Leaf Hurricane!
[01:22] ---
    Leaf Gust!
[01:32] ---
    H-He's strong.
[01:45] ---
    Guy is…losing ground!
[01:51] ---
    Lee?!
[01:53] ---
    I'm sorry, I'll be right back!
[01:55] ---
    Please stay here and rest, Sai!
[02:04] ---
    You…
[02:06] ---
    must dodge this.
[02:09] ---
    Not the legendary technique?!
[02:13] ---
    Guy Sensei!
[02:16] ---
    I will assist you!
[02:18] ---
    Lee?!
[02:21] ---
    Old Master Chen!
[02:24] ---
    I guess I'm really famous, eh?
[02:27] ---
    I'm so honored to see you again.
[02:31] ---
    He died before you were born.
[02:34] ---
    How did you meet him?
[02:36] ---
    The Old Master was not dead.
[02:38] ---
    What?!
[02:40] ---
    At that time…
[02:42] ---
    If you are the real Master Chen,
    I have a request!
[02:49] ---
    Please teach me
    the Leaf Dragon God!
[02:56] ---
    You're that kid?
[02:58] ---
    I will never forget you…
[03:02] ---
    or the Dragon's Eye.
[04:34] ---
    The Old Master
    and the Dragon's Eye
    
    
    
[04:44] ---
    You're still a shinobi.
[04:48] ---
    One cannot give up on his dreams.
[04:51] ---
    What do you mean?
    What's going on?
[04:55] ---
    So you're his…?
[04:57] ---
    That's right, I never told you
    about this, Guy Sensei.
[05:03] ---
    As I recall…
[05:05] ---
    It was soon after I had recovered
    from my serious injuries.
[05:09] ---
    SECRET TAIJUTSU TECHNIQUES
    
    Oh, look!
[05:11] ---
    I just came across it in the library.
[05:13] ---
    – Ohh!
    – Ohh!
[05:18] ---
    The Leaf Dragon God?!
[05:19] ---
    It seems to be a secret technique
    created by someone
[05:21] ---
    known as Old Master Chen.
[05:24] ---
    The words "secret technique"
    make me excited!
[05:26] ---
    Let's find Master Chen and
    ask him to teach it to us!
[05:30] ---
    But it says this man was
    a Hidden Leaf hero
[05:32] ---
    who died in the Third Great Ninja War.
[05:35] ---
    Huh? He's dead?!
[05:38] ---
    It's all right!
[05:39] ---
    I'm sure everything about
    the Leaf Dragon God is right here.
[05:46] ---
    No…!
[05:47] ---
    I wanted to master this,
[05:49] ---
    to become stronger while
    Guy Sensei was away.
[05:53] ---
    Bushy Brow…
[05:54] ---
    You can just train with me.
[05:57] ---
    Huh?
[05:58] ---
    I need to get stronger too,
    so I can bring Sasuke back.
[06:02] ---
    Naruto…
[06:04] ---
    Seems this man's grave
    is near the village.
[06:07] ---
    Really?
[06:09] ---
    Then let's go pay our respects
    at the hero's grave,
[06:12] ---
    get inspired and train hard!
[06:24] ---
    Do you bring rice balls here
    every day, Azami?
[06:26] ---
    Yeah, because it's Grandpa's grave.
[06:29] ---
    So she's the Old Master's
    granddaughter?
[06:32] ---
    Do you know how to do
    the Leaf Dragon God?!
[06:34] ---
    Of course not!
[06:37] ---
    Grandpa's alive.
[06:39] ---
    Huh?!
[06:41] ---
    He comes to eat the rice balls.
[06:44] ---
    That's ridiculous.
[06:46] ---
    What does she mean by he's alive?
[06:54] ---
    This is so good.
[06:57] ---
    Wh-Who are you?!
[06:58] ---
    He's Old Master Chen?!
[07:00] ---
    That's impossible!
[07:01] ---
    He's fooling Azami and tricking her
    into bringing rice balls!
[07:05] ---
    That's unforgivable!
[07:09] ---
    I'm not sharing with you guys.
[07:12] ---
    Do not eat them!
[07:23] ---
    You ruined my one single enjoyment
    in life!
[07:28] ---
    Leaf Dragon God!
[07:31] ---
    – Huh?!
    – Huh?!
[07:43] ---
    Leaf Dragon God…
[07:45] ---
    Amazing…
[07:48] ---
    Amazing. He was actually alive.
[07:51] ---
    And so…
[07:52] ---
    I believed it was a chance to
    learn the secret technique,
[07:55] ---
    and went to his grave again.
[07:58] ---
    If you are truly Old Master Chen,
    I have a request!
[08:05] ---
    Please teach me that technique…
    the Leaf Dragon God!
[08:15] ---
    I cannot use ninjutsu!
[08:19] ---
    That's why I want to hone
    my taijutsu skills!
[08:22] ---
    Can't use ninjutsu, eh…?
[08:25] ---
    No, I can't! But I'm doing
    my best to prove
[08:28] ---
    that I can be a great shinobi
    with taijutsu alone.
[08:32] ---
    You're doing your best
    despite that, eh…?
[08:39] ---
    A shinobi who cannot use
    ninjutsu cannot be a shinobi!
[08:43] ---
    I will pound it into
    that body of yours
[08:46] ---
    that you are not qualified
    to be a shinobi!
[09:04] ---
    – Bushy Brow!
    – Lee!
[09:08] ---
    What happened…just now?
[09:10] ---
    You are weak!
[09:13] ---
    Just forget about being a shinobi!
[09:15] ---
    Th-That's…
[09:20] ---
    How could you say such
    a cruel thing to my Lee?!
[09:24] ---
    You, of all people, should know.
[09:29] ---
    It's ridiculous for him to risk his life
[09:32] ---
    on becoming a shinobi!
[09:34] ---
    How did you know that?
[09:36] ---
    He told me himself.
[09:46] ---
    You're going to see that old man?
[09:48] ---
    We'll keep you company.
[09:50] ---
    You guys…
[09:53] ---
    Thank you,
    but please let me go alone.
[09:56] ---
    – Huh?
    – Huh?
[09:57] ---
    He said I'm not qualified.
[09:59] ---
    I want him to acknowledge my skills.
[10:03] ---
    – Lee…
    – Bushy Brow...
[10:05] ---
    And so…I'm going alone!
[10:08] ---
    I figured you would say that.
[10:10] ---
    Huh?
[10:11] ---
    Here… Take this.
[10:17] ---
    Azami asked me to give it to you.
[10:21] ---
    Thank you…
[10:35] ---
    CHEN
[11:01] ---
    You're such a persistent kid!
[11:03] ---
    I won't ask you to teach me
    that technique.
[11:07] ---
    But please attack me
[11:09] ---
    with the Leaf Dragon God
    one more time.
[11:12] ---
    Huh?!
[11:14] ---
    You said I'm not qualified
    to be a shinobi.
[11:18] ---
    I cannot accept that.
[11:23] ---
    If I'm able to defeat that technique…
[11:26] ---
    Please say you'll acknowledge me
    as a shinobi!
[11:30] ---
    I beg you!
[11:32] ---
    Please use your Leaf Dragon God
    once more!
[11:41] ---
    Your tenacity has won me over.
[11:43] ---
    I will honor your request.
[11:47] ---
    Although I doubt that
    you will be able
[11:49] ---
    to see through the Dragon's Eye.
[11:51] ---
    The Dragon's…Eye?
[11:54] ---
    Now you will realize just
    how unqualified you are
[11:56] ---
    to be a shinobi!
[12:00] ---
    I will absolutely make you
    acknowledge me!
[12:03] ---
    Leaf Dragon God!
[12:25] ---
    Dynamic Entry!
[13:12] ---
    Eat, then go home.
[13:13] ---
    And quit being a shinobi.
[13:16] ---
    Please do it…one more time.
[13:21] ---
    The Dragon's Eye…and the tornado.
[13:26] ---
    I feel like I'm almost there.
[13:32] ---
    Why won't you give up when
    you've been beaten up so badly?
[13:36] ---
    You're just like him.
[13:41] ---
    In any case, forget about
    being a shinobi.
[13:44] ---
    I…can never, ever give up my dream
[13:50] ---
    of being a shinobi.
[13:53] ---
    Someone is staking his life on
    my becoming a shinobi.
[13:58] ---
    I have my promise with Guy Sensei.
[14:03] ---
    And you're repudiating it,
    so I cannot lose to you!
[14:08] ---
    So please, just one more time.
[14:12] ---
    Forget your dream.
[14:15] ---
    I'm saying this for your own sake.
[14:17] ---
    Please wait!
[14:23] ---
    And after that,
    I never saw him again.
[14:27] ---
    "Forget your dream."
    You said this for Lee's sake.
[14:32] ---
    A shinobi who cannot use ninjutsu
[14:34] ---
    in the dangerous world of shinobi
    is powerless.
[14:37] ---
    Huh?
[14:38] ---
    Perhaps one shouldn't even aim
    to become shinobi.
[14:44] ---
    Old Master, you were not mistaken
[14:47] ---
    in trying to get Lee to
    give up being a shinobi.
[14:50] ---
    Guy Sensei?
[14:53] ---
    However…
[14:55] ---
    I will never accept that!
[14:58] ---
    What you did was wrong!
[15:04] ---
    Guy Sensei…
[15:08] ---
    I thought you, of all people,
    would understand me.
[15:12] ---
    However, I will prove to both of you,
    teacher and pupil…
[15:15] ---
    that you are wrong!
[15:16] ---
    We are not wrong!
[15:18] ---
    Lee! You should be able
    to prove it to him!
[15:21] ---
    Yes, sir!
[15:25] ---
    I never thought this moment would come.
[15:40] ---
    Primary Lotus!
[15:52] ---
    The Leaf Dragon God's true form
    is a tornado.
[15:55] ---
    So the Dragon's Eye is…
[15:59] ---
    I can't test it now even if I wanted to!
[16:05] ---
    Leaf Dragon God!
[16:24] ---
    What's the matter?
[16:25] ---
    Have you given up?
[16:27] ---
    I believe I've told you before!
[16:28] ---
    I don't give up!
[16:33] ---
    Is that what you call a dodge?
[16:45] ---
    The Dragon's Eye…
    is the eye of the tornado!
[16:48] ---
    That's its weakness!
[16:51] ---
    This is it for the Leaf Dragon God…
[16:54] ---
    One-man Primary Lotus!
[17:03] ---
    W-What?!
[17:24] ---
    My-My Leaf Dragon God?!
[17:30] ---
    Why? How can it be?
[17:33] ---
    Why won't you give up after all this?
[17:39] ---
    I once sustained severe injuries
[17:41] ---
    and was on the brink of
    giving up my dreams.
[17:45] ---
    But Guy Sensei said this to me
    at that time…
[17:49] ---
    Lee…
[17:50] ---
    If you want to be free from
    your suffering, make up your mind!
[17:56] ---
    Do you mean
    to give up my dream?
[18:01] ---
    If you give up your dream,
    you will suffer even more.
[18:06] ---
    You're the kind of fool
    that can't go on living
[18:08] ---
    if you've lost your Ninja Way.
[18:11] ---
    You and I both…
[18:15] ---
    Have the surgery, Lee!
[18:21] ---
    Your surgery will be a success
[18:23] ---
    because you have worked hard
    all the way through.
[18:25] ---
    You have the power to bring
    your own future in the heavens.
[18:28] ---
    And in the one in a million chance
    that something goes wrong…
[18:31] ---
    I will die with you!
[18:35] ---
    Ever since I met you,
[18:36] ---
    my Ninja Way has been to
    nurture you into a fine ninja.
[18:42] ---
    That's a promise!
[18:48] ---
    Guy Sensei!
[19:00] ---
    I see…
[19:01] ---
    You found yourself a fine teacher.
[19:06] ---
    – Old Master!
    – Old Master!
[19:11] ---
    I, too, had a pupil long ago.
[19:17] ---
    And just like you,
    he was not able to use ninjutsu.
[19:24] ---
    But he said he would become
    a shinobi with only taijutsu
[19:27] ---
    and through hard training,
    his dream was realized.
[19:31] ---
    He was to be initiated in the ways
    of the Leaf Dragon God, but…
[19:36] ---
    the Third Great Ninja War broke out.
[19:39] ---
    And my pupil also went
    into the battlefield.
[19:43] ---
    But for him, being unable to
    use ninjutsu and genjutsu
[19:46] ---
    was his weakness.
[19:50] ---
    And much to my regret,
    he was killed.
[19:54] ---
    I allowed my pupil to become
    a shinobi
[19:57] ---
    without even thinking of
    the consequences.
[19:59] ---
    I am not qualified to be a master.
[20:01] ---
    I was unable to forgive myself,
    so I abandoned my shinobi life,
[20:04] ---
    faked my death and put up a gravestone.
[20:08] ---
    I see… So that's how it was.
[20:12] ---
    Forgive me.
[20:14] ---
    I thought you would walk
    the same path as my pupil,
[20:18] ---
    that's why…
[20:23] ---
    However, you two will do just fine!
[20:28] ---
    Old Master Chen…
[20:30] ---
    The time has come for that grave
    to actually be of use!
[20:56] ---
    Old Master Chen…
[20:58] ---
    I'll bring you offerings of rice balls.
[22:36] ---
    He's a Reanimation too?
    
    
[22:41] ---
    He's crying! He looks like a child!
    
    
[22:43] ---
    Shikamaru! Choji! Ino! It's me!
    
    
[22:48] ---
    Why does he know our names?!
    
    
[22:51] ---
    I don't know this guy!
    
    
[22:54] ---
    Me neither!
    
    
[22:55] ---
    Next time on Naruto Shippuden:
    
    
[22:57] ---
    "Rain Followed by Snow,
    with Some Lightning"
    
    
    
[23:00] ---
    No, we know you!
    
    
    
[23:05] ---
    Tune in again!
