    The Night Before the Second Exam
    
    
[01:53] ---
    Where are you trying to go?
[01:56] ---
    The Kazekage's quarters
    are beyond here.
[02:00] ---
    Hold it!
[02:03] ---
    Who the hell are you?!
[02:06] ---
    We seek to reform the Land of Wind!
[02:14] ---
    You think I'd let you get away?!
[02:24] ---
    You have nowhere to run…
[02:36] ---
    Divine Punishment!
[02:40] ---
    Take cover!
[02:59] ---
    Oh, you're back.
[03:01] ---
    Damn it…
[03:02] ---
    Be more careful.
[03:09] ---
    You wanted to talk to me?
[03:13] ---
    Please, Gaara, forget about
    supervising the Chunin Exams.
[03:17] ---
    The people targeting you
    are stepping up their efforts.
[03:21] ---
    You'll just be playing into
    their hands if you continue this!
[03:25] ---
    I already know that.
[03:27] ---
    But if I quit because of that,
[03:29] ---
    it would be like declaring that
    I will cave in under pressure.
[03:33] ---
    Maybe so, but…
[03:35] ---
    But this is only the Chunin Exams!
[03:43] ---
    The Chunin Exams is where
    everything began for me.
[03:49] ---
    Thanks to him,
    I've made it this far.
[03:54] ---
    I'll make sure these Chunin Exams
    are a success…
[03:57] ---
    …without fail.
[04:09] ---
    We've finally reached
    Hidden Sand territory.
[04:12] ---
    All right, let's go to
    the second-round site.
[04:18] ---
    Sarutobi Sensei! Yuhi Sensei!
[04:20] ---
    Sorry, but this is as far as you'll go.
[04:24] ---
    Late arrivals are disqualified.
[04:27] ---
    If you're from the Hidden Leaf,
    return to the village.
[04:30] ---
    The rest of you can disperse
    from here too.
[04:33] ---
    But we ran nonstop for
    three days to get here!
[04:36] ---
    If you're complaining,
[04:40] ---
    then maybe it's for the best
    that you're being eliminated.
[04:44] ---
    That's because hell is beyond this point.
[04:46] ---
    And who knows if you'll even
    get out of there alive.
[04:54] ---
    Sakura! Everyone!
    You made it!
[04:59] ---
    I must admit,
    Guy Sensei's team sure has stamina.
[05:04] ---
    Team Asuma, Team Kurenai…
[05:06] ---
    The main members from
    that last time made it through.
[05:10] ---
    Yup! You all gave it your all!
[05:13] ---
    The fortitude you showed in running for
    three days and three nights without sleep
[05:17] ---
    has made me so proud!
[05:21] ---
    Why, it takes me back to the time
    I took the Chunin Exams…
[05:24] ---
    Sensei… If you're going to
    tell us a long story…
[05:26] ---
    Please let us rest already.
    I'm starving.
[05:32] ---
    Seems like it.
[05:36] ---
    We've never been to
    the Hidden Sand before…
[05:39] ---
    It really is nothing but desert.
[05:42] ---
    To be accurate,
    this really isn't Hidden Sand Village.
[05:45] ---
    It's quite far from the village.
[05:48] ---
    Neji, have you ever been to
    the Hidden Sand Village?
[05:52] ---
    Once on an errand for the Hyuga.
[05:54] ---
    This is the Demon Desert checkpoint.
[05:58] ---
    I see.
[05:59] ---
    So this is what they're using.
[06:01] ---
    Taking the Exams in a different village
    is sort of nerve-wracking.
[06:06] ---
    I wonder what
    the second round will be like.
[06:10] ---
    It's probably like
    last time.
[06:13] ---
    So we'll be battling teams
    from other villages?
[06:16] ---
    There's a good chance of that.
[06:18] ---
    Then we'll have to be wary
    of some teams.
[06:23] ---
    We went at full-speed,
    yet we weren't the first to arrive.
[06:28] ---
    The Hidden Waterfall were
    the first to arrive.
[06:31] ---
    Not only that,
    they got here long before us.
[06:35] ---
    Just what kind of opponents
    are they?
[06:39] ---
    C'mon, open up!
[06:42] ---
    What's going on?
    The door won't open!
[06:46] ---
    Sorry, Fuu.
[06:47] ---
    Stay in there until morning.
[06:50] ---
    Huh?! Why's that?
[06:53] ---
    We never know what you'll do next.
[06:55] ---
    So please, give us a break and
    let us rest up for the next round.
[06:59] ---
    Huh? Hey!
[07:01] ---
    That means I can't go and
    have fun with the others!
[07:04] ---
    See, that's what worries us.
[07:10] ---
    Dinner is ready.
[07:13] ---
    Entrants, please assemble
    in the cafeteria.
[07:19] ---
    So that's Hidden Sand Village…
[07:21] ---
    Check out the Hidden Sand…
    giving everyone the stink eye.
[07:26] ---
    They sure look mean.
[07:28] ---
    Well, Kiba… You look pretty mean too.
[07:32] ---
    And over there
    are the Hidden Rain.
[07:35] ---
    I guess the other side
    is the Hidden Grass.
[07:38] ---
    That guy's amazing.
[07:40] ---
    I'll say.
[07:42] ---
    Compared to him, even
    our slightly chubby Choji looks normal.
[07:46] ---
    But the way he sweats…
[07:48] ---
    Seriously, that's gross.
[07:52] ---
    Hey…
[07:53] ---
    I'm getting a bad feeling…
[07:57] ---
    Bad feeling?
[07:58] ---
    All that sweat.
[08:00] ---
    If he gets close to the food…
[08:09] ---
    All right! Time to eat dinner!
[08:39] ---
    At this rate…
[08:41] ---
    Our dinner will be…
[08:57] ---
    Damn!
[09:01] ---
    Eight Trigrams Palm Rotation!
[09:07] ---
    S-Saved…
[09:08] ---
    Uh… I do not think so.
[09:19] ---
    What did you do to our dinner?
[09:21] ---
    What are you thinking?
[09:25] ---
    What did you do to our friend?!
[09:28] ---
    Don't misunderstand!
[09:29] ---
    We wanted to protect our food!
[09:32] ---
    So you were going to save your food
    and never mind the rest of us, right?
[09:37] ---
    What're you saying?!
[09:39] ---
    We'd never stoop to
    something like that!
[09:41] ---
    Your suspicion shows that
    Gaara hasn't trained you right!
[09:46] ---
    Did you just criticize Lord Gaara?
[09:49] ---
    That is absolutely unforgivable!
[09:57] ---
    Stop!
[09:59] ---
    Please stop, everyone!
[10:12] ---
    Hey, stop it!
[10:21] ---
    Neji! Aren't you going to stop them?
[10:24] ---
    Sorry, but I'm busy right now.
[10:25] ---
    Burami!
[10:27] ---
    Don't eat food off the ground!
[10:29] ---
    Muyami! You help too!
[10:32] ---
    I'll pass… I'm too shy.
[10:34] ---
    Calm down, every—!
[10:36] ---
    Do not fight—!
[10:38] ---
    Why you…!
[10:43] ---
    Will you stop…and listen to me?!
[11:01] ---
    This room is way too small for
    a flashy move like that.
[11:05] ---
    I didn't do that at full strength,
    but still…
[11:07] ---
    To be able
    to stop me with one hand…
[11:10] ---
    What's that sound?
[11:12] ---
    Fuu!
[11:20] ---
    Ta-dah!
[11:24] ---
    So the party's already started, guys?!
[11:27] ---
    I wonder if I can make a hundred friends?
[11:31] ---
    Wh-Who are you?
[11:33] ---
    I'm Fuu from the Village Hidden
    in the Waterfall!
[11:38] ---
    This one…
[11:39] ---
    I came to the Chunin Exams
    to make a hundred friends!
[11:44] ---
    So guys, what's the plan
    after dinner?
[11:47] ---
    Cards? Backgammon? Musical chairs?
[11:51] ---
    Or…
[11:52] ---
    How about we all take
    a bath together?
[11:56] ---
    What's with you?
[12:00] ---
    Oh well, so much for dinner…
[12:03] ---
    I'm going back.
[12:05] ---
    Huh? Hey…
[12:07] ---
    W-Wait!
[12:10] ---
    Don't go!
[12:12] ---
    Hey guys, play with me!
[12:15] ---
    Well…
[12:17] ---
    It took an idiot like that
    to stop the ruckus…
[12:20] ---
    Sort of reminds me of someone.
[12:22] ---
    I know… Naruto.
[12:23] ---
    Right, Lee?
[12:25] ---
    Huh? Lee?
[12:27] ---
    Excuse me, please wait!
[12:31] ---
    I realized it when
    I made contact earlier.
[12:33] ---
    You are not like the others.
[12:38] ---
    You stopped my attack
    with such ease.
[12:42] ---
    It may sound arrogant
    coming from me,
[12:44] ---
    but it takes someone
    extraordinary to do that.
[12:47] ---
    That's why I can tell…
[12:49] ---
    That you have had to overcome
    great odds like me.
[12:53] ---
    What are you trying to say?
[12:55] ---
    Well…that you and I are alike.
[12:58] ---
    I know about you.
[13:01] ---
    You're Rock Lee of the Hidden Leaf.
[13:03] ---
    I'm Shira of the Hidden Sand.
[13:06] ---
    Shira…
[13:09] ---
    I don't know what it is you sensed,
[13:12] ---
    but dwelling on the misfortunes
    of birth is meaningless.
[13:16] ---
    Because, for all of one's flaws
    and suffering,
[13:17] ---
    we have just one life.
[13:20] ---
    To me, there is only one truth in life.
[13:24] ---
    One truth in life?
[13:30] ---
    Determination never betrays you.
[13:38] ---
    Shira…
[13:45] ---
    Lady Tsunade, I've returned.
[13:47] ---
    I'm glad you made it back.
    So how did it go?
[13:50] ---
    As I reported, I wasn't able
    to see Hanzo in person.
[13:57] ---
    I intended to sneak back in and
[13:59] ---
    investigate, but…
[14:13] ---
    The infiltrator must be around here!
[14:15] ---
    Find him!
[14:16] ---
    What?
[14:18] ---
    They've discovered
    my presence already?
[14:21] ---
    They were on to me from the start.
[14:24] ---
    It was almost as though…
[14:26] ---
    ghosts were watching me.
[14:28] ---
    Well…
[14:31] ---
    I was expecting just
    the usual Chunin Exams,
[14:35] ---
    But now that it's started,
[14:37] ---
    we're discovering some
    interesting things about each village.
[14:41] ---
    Interesting things?
[14:56] ---
    Choji…
[14:58] ---
    What are you doing?
[15:00] ---
    Ino…
[15:01] ---
    What's that building?
[15:04] ---
    Oh, that's where the Senseis
    are staying.
[15:07] ---
    The Senseis?!
[15:10] ---
    Hey, Choji!
[15:12] ---
    I'll bet they'll give us some food
    if we go there!
[15:15] ---
    We're not supposed to
    wander around at night!
[15:18] ---
    He's so hungry,
    he can't think straight!
[15:21] ---
    Let's go after him!
[15:31] ---
    Choji! Where are you?!
[15:37] ---
    – Choji?!
    – Choji?!
[15:41] ---
    Friends...
[15:46] ---
    Byakugan!
[15:49] ---
    What is that shadow?
[15:51] ---
    Whose voice was that?!
[15:53] ---
    No way…
[15:54] ---
    Did someone go outside?
[15:56] ---
    What?
[15:57] ---
    Oh! Cards? Backgammon?!
[16:00] ---
    Giant scorpions come out at night
    during this time of year!
[16:04] ---
    That's why you were told
    not to go outside!
[16:06] ---
    You have things like that?!
[16:10] ---
    Hey!
[16:20] ---
    Choji!
[16:21] ---
    I'm here to help you!
[16:24] ---
    What is this thing?!
[16:31] ---
    Hidden Waterfall Hurricane!
[16:40] ---
    Yahoo! This is fun!
[16:44] ---
    No! Stop!
[16:47] ---
    W-What's happening?!
[16:48] ---
    Hey!
[16:49] ---
    Stop fooling around,
    and take that thing down!
[16:52] ---
    Huh? It's over already…?!
[16:55] ---
    It's dangerous!
[16:58] ---
    Aww… Guess I have no choice!
[17:10] ---
    Sakura, are you all right?
[17:13] ---
    Yeah…
[17:15] ---
    But you're bleeding!
[17:17] ---
    I'm okay.
[17:19] ---
    Please don't move.
[17:24] ---
    This girl…
[17:26] ---
    She's a Medical Ninja like me…
[17:30] ---
    That should do it.
[17:31] ---
    Thank you.
[17:35] ---
    She's got skill.
[17:37] ---
    Yahoo!
[17:38] ---
    Yahoo yahoo-hoo!
[17:42] ---
    Jeez…
[17:43] ---
    What a pain…
[17:44] ---
    Her again…
[17:47] ---
    How'd she show up so fast?
[17:49] ---
    And she brought down
    that monster in no time.
[17:53] ---
    W-What is this?!
[17:57] ---
    What's going on?
[17:59] ---
    Going outside at night is prohibited.
[18:02] ---
    The Second Exam begins
    before dawn breaks!
[18:04] ---
    Hurry up and return
    to your quarters!
[18:06] ---
    – We're sorry.
    – Guy Sensei!
[18:08] ---
    W-We're starving!
[18:11] ---
    You guys are…
[18:14] ---
    Go back now!
[18:17] ---
    Clear your mind of mundane thoughts
    and even a fire will go out!
[18:24] ---
    Missing one meal won't kill a person!
[18:27] ---
    Just think of this
    as part of training!
[18:34] ---
    Huh? Huh?
[18:35] ---
    Huh?! You're all leaving?
[18:39] ---
    I'm so sad…
[18:41] ---
    You're a good person.…
    To help foes from other villages.
[18:47] ---
    If you had ignored them, you would've
    ended up with fewer rivals.
[18:50] ---
    I don't care about rivals or allies.
[18:54] ---
    I wonder if I'm going to make
    a hundred friends!
[18:57] ---
    Hey, let's be friends!
[19:01] ---
    Wanna play cards? Backgammon?
[19:03] ---
    Or…wanna bathe together?!
[19:07] ---
    They are the Lord Kazekage
    and the jonin supervisors!
[19:12] ---
    Watch what you say!
[19:14] ---
    One hundred…!
[19:17] ---
    – Enough! Let's go back!
    – …friends!
[19:19] ---
    Doesn't care about rivals or allies, huh.
[19:22] ---
    Sounds just like someone I know.
[19:29] ---
    Gaara?
[19:30] ---
    It's nothing.
[19:32] ---
    Now I have more to look forward to
    in the Chunin Exams.
[19:37] ---
    Thanks to a few interesting
    characters taking part in it.
[19:48] ---
    All right…
[19:50] ---
    I'm going to explain the second round
    of the Chunin Exams.
[19:53] ---
    The Second Exam will be
    a competition for scrolls
[19:56] ---
    to be held in the Demon Desert.
[19:58] ---
    In other words,
    this is the ultimate survival battle!
[20:04] ---
    EARTH HEAVEN
    
    There are two scrolls,
    Heaven and Earth.
[20:07] ---
    Half the teams will be
    given Heaven scrolls.
[20:10] ---
    The other half will get Earth scrolls.
[20:13] ---
    The objective of this exam
[20:15] ---
    is to obtain both the Heaven
    and Earth scrolls
[20:18] ---
    and to bring them back
    to the base
[20:20] ---
    located in the center
    of the Demon Desert.
[20:22] ---
    You have 72 hours.
[20:24] ---
    Find food on your own!
[20:27] ---
    Starting now,
    there may be fatalities.
[20:29] ---
    Every participating team member
    will sign a consent form!
[20:33] ---
    CONSENT FORM
    
    When you turn in the team
    consent forms, you will be given a scroll!
[20:38] ---
    Furthermore, to avoid confusion,
[20:40] ---
    each team will start from
    a different location.
[20:44] ---
    So be quick,
    and go to your starting points!
[20:49] ---
    It's finally starting…
[20:51] ---
    The second round
    of the Chunin Exams!
[20:53] ---
    We don't know what lies ahead.
[20:56] ---
    So let's stay on our toes.
[20:58] ---
    – Right!
    – Okay!
[22:37] ---
    Our priority is to find
    the other scroll.
    
    
[22:40] ---
    To do that, we're going to have
    to fight another team for it.
    
    
[22:43] ---
    We were fortunate that brawl happened
    in the cafeteria last night.
    
    
[22:47] ---
    We have to watch out for
    the one who stopped your kick,
    
    
[22:51] ---
    Shira, and his team, and…
    
    
[22:55] ---
    Next time on Naruto Shippuden:
    "Survival in the Demon Desert"
    
    
    
[23:00] ---
    …the team from the Hidden Waterfall!
    
    
    
[23:02] ---
    IN NARUTO'S FOOTSTEPS ~
    THE PATH TRAVELED
    SURVIVAL IN THE DEMON DESERT
    
    
    
[23:05] ---
    Tune in again!
