[01:30] ---
    Their Backs
    
    
[01:38] ---
    Not yet... I don't have
    enough chakra yet…
[02:00] ---
    Wake up, Choji!
[02:02] ---
    Choji!
[02:03] ---
    What will you do next,
[02:07] ---
    my dear puppet?
[02:09] ---
    He's not your puppet!
[02:11] ---
    He's my friend!
[02:17] ---
    What are you doing?
[02:19] ---
    Get out of Choji!
[02:21] ---
    You're the one who's getting out!
[02:28] ---
    I-I won't lose!
[02:29] ---
    There's no way the Yamanaka Clan's
    Mind Transfer Jutsu will be defeated!
[02:54] ---
    Ino?!
[02:58] ---
    Sister!
[02:59] ---
    Lady Saya!
[03:02] ---
    My jutsu…
[03:06] ---
    My jutsu was undone! No!
[03:09] ---
    It wasn't undone...
[03:11] ---
    I didn't lose!
[03:12] ---
    I didn't…!
[03:14] ---
    There's no way I'd lose!
[03:36] ---
    Ino!
[03:37] ---
    You did it!
[03:49] ---
    Ino! Sakura!
[03:57] ---
    A puppet…?!
[04:02] ---
    It can't be!
[04:15] ---
    Over here! Lady Sana!
[04:18] ---
    Mamushi, you're alive?
[04:19] ---
    Damned right I am!
[04:21] ---
    What about…Elder Sister?
[04:24] ---
    Lady Saya!
[04:25] ---
    Elder Sister, you're all right!
[04:27] ---
    I'm okay…
[04:29] ---
    But my doll is broken.
[04:33] ---
    I can't believe your jutsu
    was defeated…Lady Saya.
[04:36] ---
    What?!
[04:38] ---
    I did not lose! I didn't!
[04:41] ---
    I did not lose!
[04:45] ---
    I don't care about
    the Chunin Exams anymore.
[04:47] ---
    Revenge! We're getting revenge!
[04:51] ---
    Lady Saya…
[04:52] ---
    But how…?
[04:54] ---
    I'm going to turn them
    into puppets
[04:56] ---
    and make them clean toilets
    for ten years…!
[05:04] ---
    As expected, Sister!
[05:06] ---
    That's so depraved!
[05:10] ---
    Those three from
    the Hidden Leaf…
[05:12] ---
    I'm going to get that
    blonde Sensory-type!
[05:17] ---
    You know what to do, right, Sana?
[05:19] ---
    Of course, Sister.
[05:38] ---
    Choji and Ino have used up their chakra
    due to all these battles.
[05:41] ---
    Their strength and willpower
    are at their limits!
[05:45] ---
    When the enemy attacks again,
    it'll be up to me…!
[05:51] ---
    Back then…
[05:54] ---
    all I ever did was have
    Sasuke and Naruto protect me.
[05:59] ---
    Now, I should be able
    to protect them.
[06:03] ---
    Like Sasuke…
    and Naruto did back then!
[06:11] ---
    All right, today we're going to
    step up our training much more.
[06:16] ---
    It will be like an experiment…
[06:19] ---
    I don't even know
    what might happen.
[06:22] ---
    Are you prepared?
[06:23] ---
    Y-Yeah!
[06:25] ---
    Let's just do it!
[06:28] ---
    Good.
[06:29] ---
    Come on out, Gerotora!
[06:35] ---
    I have a bad feeling about this…
[06:37] ---
    Anytime you summon me,
    it means you…
[06:40] ---
    That's right. I want you to loosen
    the Nine-Tails' seal just a little.
[06:46] ---
    Well, let me just start off
    by saying, I'm opposed to this.
[06:49] ---
    The Nine Tails cannot be
    controlled by mere humans.
[06:53] ---
    That's why I've taken
    the time to make sure.
[07:01] ---
    With all the training he's put in,
    I know that Naruto can maintain
[07:04] ---
    his own psyche up to
    a two-tail transformation.
[07:07] ---
    We need to know
    how much farther is possible.
[07:13] ---
    Can you handle it, kid?
[07:15] ---
    Opening the seal means that
[07:17] ---
    the Nine Tails influence
    will grow stronger.
[07:21] ---
    Can you say for sure that
[07:23] ---
    he won't take you over
    and run amok?
[07:26] ---
    Well, I…
[07:29] ---
    Well, if worse comes to worst,
[07:32] ---
    I, Jiraiya, one of the Legendary Sannin,
    will stop him even if it kills me.
[07:38] ---
    Pervy Sage…
[07:40] ---
    Besides, I have faith that
    Naruto will master this jutsu.
[07:45] ---
    As did the Fourth Hokage
    who sealed the Nine Tails in Naruto.
[07:50] ---
    Yeah!
[07:57] ---
    All right then, let's begin.
[07:59] ---
    Right!
[08:09] ---
    Here we go!
[08:16] ---
    Two tails in an instant…
[08:18] ---
    Hey, there's the third tail!
[08:22] ---
    Now, Naruto!
[08:23] ---
    Suppress your chakra now!
[08:32] ---
    Suppress yourself!
[08:34] ---
    I got that!
[08:38] ---
    What is this irritating feeling?
[08:42] ---
    It's bitter and hateful…
[08:45] ---
    It feels like my insides
    are turning black!
[08:50] ---
    I'll cooperate with you.
[08:56] ---
    Y-You are…?
[08:59] ---
    Don't hold back.
[09:02] ---
    You want power, don't you?
[09:04] ---
    Cut it out!
[09:10] ---
    You know it's pretty pathetic…
[09:14] ---
    The guy you're trying
    to bring back left the village...
[09:20] ---
    He forgot
    about you long ago…
[09:22] ---
    and he's teamed up with
    a better partner.
[09:26] ---
    Shut up and go back!
[09:33] ---
    Idiot… If anyone goes back…
    it's you!
[09:51] ---
    It was a reckless idea, after all.
[09:53] ---
    Such a pity.
[10:00] ---
    Gerotora, stay back!
[10:03] ---
    I'll stop Naruto.
[10:32] ---
    Where am I?
[10:33] ---
    You're awake...
[10:36] ---
    Pervy Sage!
[10:40] ---
    What happened?!
[10:41] ---
    Isn't it obvious?
[10:43] ---
    You went on a rampage,
[10:44] ---
    so I held you down and
    this is the result.
[10:46] ---
    It's just some broken ribs
    and what not…
[10:52] ---
    I did that…?
[10:54] ---
    It's not your fault.
    I made the wrong call.
[10:59] ---
    I underestimated some things.
[11:02] ---
    Pervy Sage… I…
[11:06] ---
    Don't apologize.
[11:07] ---
    Sometimes, training goes wrong.
    It's normal.
[11:09] ---
    But…!
[11:12] ---
    He provoked me and I gave in!
[11:15] ---
    So?
[11:16] ---
    Was Gerotora right?
[11:19] ---
    Will you give up because
    it's impossible?
[11:22] ---
    I held onto my consciousness
    up to three tails.
[11:27] ---
    But I felt this immense power…
[11:30] ---
    And I realized that this jutsu
    is absolutely necessary.
[11:36] ---
    Even if it's impossible for me now,
[11:37] ---
    I'll never give up!
[11:39] ---
    I won't betray the faith
[11:41] ---
    you and the Fourth Hokage
    put into me, Pervy Sage!
[11:46] ---
    I always knew it couldn't be
    dealt with in a straightforward manner...
[11:50] ---
    We just have to
    figure out some other way.
[11:57] ---
    I know that Naruto is somewhere
    training hard right now…!
[12:02] ---
    And I…can't waste my time
    feeling sorry for myself!
[12:17] ---
    Sand Storm Jutsu!
[12:22] ---
    Well, Elder Sister…
    I leave the rest up to you.
[12:25] ---
    We're counting on you, Lady Saya.
[12:27] ---
    Cursed Sand Puppet Jutsu!
[12:38] ---
    Why did a sand storm
    suddenly start up only around us?
[12:43] ---
    This is unnatural!
[12:44] ---
    We have to consider this
    some kind of attack!
[12:47] ---
    It's them…
[12:49] ---
    Haven't they learned
    their lesson?
[12:51] ---
    They plan to limit our vision,
    then attack!
[12:53] ---
    They do have
    the ground advantage.
[12:56] ---
    Don't worry!
[12:58] ---
    I'll send you whatever
    images I can grab.
[13:02] ---
    Ino!
[13:04] ---
    Are you okay?
[13:05] ---
    You've been in full Sensory Perception
    mode for an awfully long while.
[13:09] ---
    I can still handle this…
[13:13] ---
    My Cursed Sand Puppet Jutsu…
[13:16] ---
    will bring forth many, many more.
[13:18] ---
    That blonde Sensory-type
    is near exhaustion
[13:24] ---
    from using so much chakra
    to ward off my jutsu…
[13:28] ---
    And now, all these Cursed Puppets…
[13:31] ---
    Using Sensory Perception on this
    many has to be quite a burden.
[13:41] ---
    Mamushi…
[13:42] ---
    Roger!
[13:44] ---
    Take over, Sana.
[13:46] ---
    Yes, Elder Sister.
[13:50] ---
    Sand Cloak Jutsu!
[13:57] ---
    Ino!
[13:58] ---
    Don't push yourself
    so hard anymore!
[14:00] ---
    But…
[14:01] ---
    If each of us can guard
    our own line of sight,
[14:03] ---
    we'll manage somehow!
[14:06] ---
    All right.
[14:07] ---
    I'll use Mind Transmission Jutsu
    to connect what we each see.
[14:11] ---
    That'll take some of
    the burden off of me.
[14:20] ---
    It's working!
[14:21] ---
    Ino! These guys are pretty weak.
[14:25] ---
    Yes… This'll work!
[14:29] ---
    Keep on coming at me!
[14:31] ---
    I'll kick your butts!
[14:42] ---
    Choji!
[14:46] ---
    Sakura!
[14:48] ---
    Ino!
[14:56] ---
    It's fine. The poison will start
    spreading soon…
[14:59] ---
    And you won't be able to move!
[15:03] ---
    Choji! Ino!
[15:05] ---
    This…is nothing.
[15:07] ---
    Yeah! I'll pulverize them all
[15:10] ---
    before the poison starts spreading
    throughout my body!
[15:15] ---
    I'm still the one being protected…
[15:21] ---
    I can't let this happen…
[15:23] ---
    After all, I changed!
[15:31] ---
    I must hurry with my chakra…
[15:33] ---
    Like that time…
[15:34] ---
    We have to treat him quickly
    or he'll die!
[15:37] ---
    We must hurry and get Lady Tsunade…
[15:43] ---
    Take him to the ICU immediately!
[15:45] ---
    Right!
[15:48] ---
    I can't allow you to
    do any surgery
[15:51] ---
    or go out into the battlefront!
[15:53] ---
    But… If we wait for Lady Tsunade,
    the patient will die…
[15:58] ---
    SURGERY IN PROGRESS
    
    I just have to do it!
[15:59] ---
    I just have to do it!
[16:00] ---
    This is…?!
[16:02] ---
    Sakura's feelings are
    flooding into me
[16:04] ---
    through the Mind Transmission Jutsu…?!
[16:10] ---
    There's only me. Just me…
[16:13] ---
    This is the time for chakra control…
[16:17] ---
    It's no good.
    I don't have enough chakra…
[16:22] ---
    Sasuke… Naruto…
[16:25] ---
    I…
[16:26] ---
    I'm still depending on those two…
    even at a time like this.
[16:32] ---
    No more saying, "I can't."
[16:34] ---
    Unless I do it, this man will die.
[16:37] ---
    I need more chakra…
[16:39] ---
    More…
[16:42] ---
    I must do it…
    With my own strength…
[16:45] ---
    With my own willpower!
[16:51] ---
    It's slight, but I feel
    my chakra replenishing…
[16:54] ---
    I can do it!
[16:55] ---
    I will save this man!
[17:07] ---
    You're going to take
    the Chunin Exams?
[17:10] ---
    Are you serious?
[17:11] ---
    Please…
[17:13] ---
    I already told you I can't authorize it.
[17:16] ---
    The dam to reserve chakra
    from the 100 Healings Jutsu…
[17:18] ---
    and the dam to store chakra
    I normally use…
[17:21] ---
    I was able to control
    both of these dams
[17:24] ---
    and successfully performed surgery.
[17:28] ---
    I want to see how far I can go.
[17:30] ---
    I want to push myself as far as I can
    by participating in the Exams.
[17:35] ---
    I'm still a novice…
[17:37] ---
    yet Choji and Ino asked me
    to join them.
[17:42] ---
    They asked me to take
    the Chunin Exams with them.
[17:45] ---
    I want to honor their trust in me!
[17:48] ---
    Please!
[17:56] ---
    AUTHORIZED
[17:58] ---
    Take this with you.
[18:04] ---
    Thank you very much!
[18:05] ---
    However…
[18:06] ---
    Whatever happens at the Chunin Exams
    will be your sole responsibility.
[18:10] ---
    Understood?
[18:11] ---
    Yes!
[18:14] ---
    I see…
[18:17] ---
    You were under that
    kind of pressure,
[18:19] ---
    yet you came just for us…
[18:21] ---
    We didn't know…
[18:23] ---
    and we made you come…
[18:26] ---
    You're wrong!
[18:27] ---
    I didn't do this for you!
[18:29] ---
    I did it for me… Me alone.
[18:33] ---
    I've always just looked at
[18:35] ---
    Naruto and Sasuke's backs
    from behind.
[18:37] ---
    I'm challenging myself this time.
[18:42] ---
    Ino… Choji…
[18:44] ---
    Thank you for believing in me.
[18:47] ---
    Thank you for asking me to join you…
[18:53] ---
    Thank you so much.
[18:58] ---
    Elder Sister, the fatso and
    the blonde can't move anymore.
[19:02] ---
    Big forehead will soon…
[19:04] ---
    Big forehead's chakra
    has suddenly spiked!
[19:13] ---
    I have enough chakra now!
[19:15] ---
    I will protect Choji and Ino,
    no matter what!
[19:19] ---
    I'll end this…
[19:20] ---
    in one sweep!
[19:24] ---
    Cha!
[19:31] ---
    I didn't lose! I didn't!
[19:33] ---
    I did not lose!
[19:35] ---
    Elder Sister!
[19:36] ---
    We lost… We totally lost!
[19:38] ---
    Mamushi! You will clean toilets
    for a hundred years!
[19:47] ---
    How do you feel?
[19:49] ---
    I extracted the poison,
[19:50] ---
    so the numbness
    should wear off soon.
[19:53] ---
    Th-Thanks.
[19:54] ---
    No, I owe you two an apology…
[19:58] ---
    You saw it through
    the Mind Transmission, didn't you?
[20:01] ---
    I put you in danger because
    of my own motives…
[20:05] ---
    You sure did.
[20:10] ---
    Kidding…
[20:13] ---
    I'm glad we asked you to join us!
[20:16] ---
    Ino…
[20:17] ---
    Yeah, I'm glad
    we asked you to join!
[20:19] ---
    I feel like the three of us
    can beat anyone.
[20:28] ---
    You guys...
[20:31] ---
    Thank you!
[20:37] ---
    What? Hey, you two!
[20:40] ---
    Okay, let's head for
    the central tower.
[20:43] ---
    We're almost at the finish line
    of the Second Exam!
[20:55] ---
    Choji, Ino…
    Seriously, thank you.
[22:36] ---
    Did you just say
    a massive sandstorm's appeared?
    
    
[22:39] ---
    It's obstructing
    our long-range sensors?
    
    
[22:42] ---
    Who would do this, and why?
    
    
[22:44] ---
    Besides that,
    we have to come up
    
    
[22:45] ---
    with safety measures
    for the exam participants first.
    
    
[22:47] ---
    We'll lead all the participants
    into shelters.
    
    
[22:50] ---
    I leave the Kazekage to you,
    
    
[22:52] ---
    because it seems like he's going to
    take matters into his own hands...
    
    
[22:56] ---
    Next time on Naruto Shippuden:
    "The Hidden Plot Set Into Motion"
    
    
[23:01] ---
    Make sure he does not
    set foot outside.
    
    
    
    
[23:03] ---
    IN NARUTO'S FOOTSTEPS ~
    THE PATH TRAVELED
    THE HIDDEN PLOT SET INTO MOTION
    
    
    
    
[23:05] ---
    Tune in again!
