    Impossible… He took us all out
    in one swoop!
[00:10] ---
    It was a blessing
[00:12] ---
    that this gang of thieves
    escaped into our territory.
[00:15] ---
    Our superior is none other
    than the lieutenant,
[00:17] ---
    the most skilled in
    the organization,
[00:19] ---
    our pride and joy.
[00:20] ---
    There's no way
    you could've gotten away.
[00:26] ---
    Brilliant as usual.
[00:29] ---
    So? What do we do with them…?
[00:32] ---
    What we always do.
[00:34] ---
    Understood.
[00:35] ---
    Hey, guys!
[00:36] ---
    Teach them a lesson and
    make an example out of them!
[00:47] ---
    Do they have to
    beat them up so much?
[00:50] ---
    Lately, their methods
    have been extreme!
[00:53] ---
    They say it's to maintain
    public morals…
[00:55] ---
    But they're just throwing
    their weight around.
[00:57] ---
    Did you say something?
[00:58] ---
    Oh, scary!
[00:59] ---
    We'd better watch what we say,
    or we're gonna get it too!
[01:13] ---
    Sasuke…

[02:49] ---
    ON STANDBY
    
    I thought it would be
    too extreme at first…
[02:51] ---
    But seeing the results,
    it all ended up being a good idea.
[02:54] ---
    If we hurt them enough,
[02:56] ---
    bad guys won't resort
    to crime again.
[02:58] ---
    The same goes with the villagers.
[03:01] ---
    This acts as a preventative
[03:02] ---
    so we're killing two birds
    with one stone.
[03:04] ---
    No…We get to let off steam too,
[03:06] ---
    so it's like killing three birds
    with one stone!
[03:13] ---
    Honestly, until Mr. Sasuke came,
    everyone was getting fed up.
[03:18] ---
    Our main issue was at a standstill
[03:20] ---
    while our work kept
    increasing steadily.
[03:23] ---
    All Captain Fugaku says is
    to heed the Hokage and wait.
[03:29] ---
    If things were going
    to change by waiting,
[03:32] ---
    they would've changed long ago.
[03:35] ---
    Absolutely…
[03:36] ---
    We have to apply pressure too.
[03:38] ---
    Lord Fugaku's ways
    are too weak.
[03:40] ---
    We're going to
    follow you, Lieutenant.
[03:46] ---
    Talk is easy.
[03:49] ---
    Now demonstrate your skills
    in a real mission.
[03:53] ---
    This isn't difficult at all…
[04:01] ---
    The recent activities of
[04:03] ---
    the Leaf Police Force
    are unpardonable!
[04:05] ---
    There's no doubt that
    crime has gone down,
[04:09] ---
    but the villagers are
    growing uneasy by the day.
[04:13] ---
    It must be a form of protest.
[04:16] ---
    They must be annoyed
[04:17] ---
    because their circumstances
    remain unchanged…
[04:19] ---
    They're starting to
    lose patience.
[04:22] ---
    Change takes time.
[04:25] ---
    My father understands this.
[04:28] ---
    However, others feel
    frustrated by this.
[04:32] ---
    Especially the younger generation.
[04:35] ---
    And the one at
    the center of all this is…
[04:37] ---
    the clan's most gifted member,
    Sasuke.
[04:46] ---
    Sasuke, you're back.
[05:06] ---
    Perhaps they're being rough,
[05:08] ---
    but they've haven't deviated
    from their duties.
[05:12] ---
    I believe my father would still
    like to keep observing them.
[05:15] ---
    And if we make the wrong move,
    we'll only invite more resistance.
[05:28] ---
    What a drag…
[05:29] ---
    Everyone's so uptight in
    the village because of them…
[05:33] ---
    It's so annoying.
[05:34] ---
    Until recently, this used to be
    such a lively place
[05:37] ---
    filled with food stands!
[05:39] ---
    Since they're so strict about
    regulating everything…
[05:41] ---
    it's so deserted now.
[05:43] ---
    I know. I want to know
    what Sasuke's thinking…
[05:47] ---
    But he's so unapproachable
    these days.
[05:51] ---
    Do you think it will ever
    go back to how it was?
[05:55] ---
    This is strange…
[05:58] ---
    Weren't there lots of
    food stands here before?
[06:01] ---
    That voice!
[06:02] ---
    Is it…Naruto?!
[06:06] ---
    Sakura!
[06:07] ---
    You guys!
[06:08] ---
    When did you get back?
[06:11] ---
    Just now.
[06:13] ---
    Pervy Sage had to make a stop,
    so I just came home first.
[06:19] ---
    You kinda look a little
    more distinguished!
[06:22] ---
    Really?
[06:23] ---
    You guys haven't changed at all!
[06:25] ---
    What're you saying?
    We've changed a lot.
[06:28] ---
    Look!
[06:30] ---
    That's—!
[06:31] ---
    While you were gone,
    we all became chunin.
[06:35] ---
    Not only that, Neji,
    who was a class ahead of us,
[06:37] ---
    is now a jonin.
[06:39] ---
    Which means…
[06:40] ---
    I'm the only one from
    our class who's still a genin?!
[06:43] ---
    Actually…Sasuke is one too.
[06:47] ---
    Since he was at the Feudal Lord's
    office all this time.
[06:49] ---
    What's going on with Sasuke?
[06:52] ---
    Yeah, well…
[06:54] ---
    Since you've been away,
[06:55] ---
    things have gotten
    a little complicated.
[07:02] ---
    Hey you!
[07:03] ---
    Who gave you permission
    to open up shop?!
[07:06] ---
    I'm sorry, but until now…
[07:09] ---
    Never mind. Come with me.
[07:14] ---
    Damn it!
[07:15] ---
    She's just a grandma!
    That's overkill!
[07:17] ---
    You're—!
[07:21] ---
    Oh no, it's that kid…
[07:23] ---
    He's come back, huh?
[07:26] ---
    Breaking the rules
    the minute you return?
[07:29] ---
    Seems like you haven't
    grown up at all, have you?
[07:31] ---
    Well, you sure have changed.
[07:35] ---
    Choji, take granny.
[07:37] ---
    Right.
[07:38] ---
    – Hey!
    – Sorry…
[07:40] ---
    but I can't let you pass.
[07:43] ---
    What do we do, Lieutenant?
[07:46] ---
    We're not going to back down
[07:48] ---
    from any obstructions
    of our duties.
[07:52] ---
    Still talking about
    that kinda stuff?
[08:00] ---
    I've been waiting for this day…
[08:08] ---
    What is this feeling?
[08:21] ---
    Stop it, both of you!
[08:22] ---
    Are you aware that
    this is a public road?
[08:26] ---
    You're—!
[08:30] ---
    We're just two friends
    having a friendly fight,
[08:32] ---
    It's none of your business
    so back off, old man!
[08:35] ---
    You idiot!
[08:36] ---
    Huh?! What, Sakura?!
[08:39] ---
    Hey!
[08:40] ---
    Let's just get out of here!
[08:43] ---
    Are they going to run away?!
[08:45] ---
    Forget it. Leave them alone.
[08:47] ---
    But—!
[08:49] ---
    That's an order.
[08:50] ---
    Just continue your rounds.
[09:01] ---
    Naruto Uzumaki…
[09:03] ---
    He's gained a lot of strength
    in three years.
[09:07] ---
    His master Jiraiya has
    taught him well.
[09:11] ---
    What is it that you want to say?
[09:13] ---
    I'm just posing a simple question.
[09:15] ---
    You should be much more
    than how you are right now.
[09:18] ---
    How long will you remain
    confined to where you're at?
[09:21] ---
    That's all.
[09:37] ---
    You don't just go around
    calling someone
[09:39] ---
    like Lord Danzo "old man."
[09:41] ---
    I didn't know!
[09:43] ---
    Who the hell was that?
[09:44] ---
    He's one of the Leaf's top officials!
[09:46] ---
    In fact, he's the one
    who's always at odds
[09:49] ---
    with Lord Fourth
    and Lord Third.
[09:50] ---
    Even Lady Tsunade
    strictly warned me
[09:54] ---
    to never get involved with him.
[09:56] ---
    You're so dense, Naruto.
[09:59] ---
    Thank you for earlier.
[10:02] ---
    Oh no…
[10:03] ---
    It's no big deal.
[10:06] ---
    It was the right thing to do…
[10:08] ---
    Well, I must get going.
[10:11] ---
    I hear he's always been on bad terms
    with the Lieutenant.
[10:16] ---
    I just hope he doesn't make
    this any worse than it already is.
[10:19] ---
    – Hey!
    – It's okay.
[10:21] ---
    There's no end
    to it if you get involved.
[10:23] ---
    More importantly,
    getting back to Sasuke…
[10:26] ---
    Pervy Sage told me…
[10:28] ---
    If a friend wanders off the path,
    you have to pull them back onto it.
[10:33] ---
    So next time,
    we have to stop Sasuke.
[10:35] ---
    Yeah!
[10:49] ---
    Are you sure about
    leaving them alone, Lieutenant?
[10:52] ---
    I know he's gonna give
    you more trouble!
[10:55] ---
    Shut up!
[10:56] ---
    Lieutenant!
[10:58] ---
    I have work to do.
[11:00] ---
    If you're a member of
    the Leaf Police Force,
[11:03] ---
    use your own judgment instead
    of always depending on me.
[11:15] ---
    Naruto Uzumaki…
[11:17] ---
    He's gained a lot of strength
    in three years.
[11:25] ---
    I don't know how he trained…
[11:27] ---
    But he's nothing like how
    he was in the past.
[11:30] ---
    I'm not strong enough.
[11:32] ---
    How do I—?!
[11:42] ---
    That child Sasuke…
[11:45] ---
    …possesses fine eyes.
[12:25] ---
    Oh yeah, the Police Force
    had a run-in
[12:28] ---
    with the Hokage's son yesterday.
[12:30] ---
    What?!
[12:31] ---
    I just saw them.
[12:33] ---
    They were walking around
    like nothing happened.
[12:35] ---
    So the Police Force acts
    all big with us commoners,
[12:38] ---
    but their hands are tied when it comes
    to the son of a powerful official, huh?
[12:41] ---
    They're just the Hokage's lapdogs,
    after all.
[12:44] ---
    Everyone's started gossiping.
[12:46] ---
    Letting him go was a big mistake!
[12:49] ---
    We've been clamping down
    on everyone until now.
[12:52] ---
    So when we make an exception
    and go easy on someone…
[12:54] ---
    they drag us through the mud.
[12:56] ---
    But the Lieutenant said
    to leave him alone!
[12:59] ---
    He also entrusted us
    to handle things on our own!
[13:02] ---
    Thinking about the sake
    of our clan,
[13:04] ---
    we have to make the right decisions.
[13:08] ---
    I'm gonna go all out and
    whip up something special today!
[13:18] ---
    What—?!
[13:19] ---
    What's going on?!
[13:21] ---
    You can't just barge
    into someone's house…
[13:23] ---
    especially with your dirty shoes on!
[13:25] ---
    Bring us Naruto Uzumaki!
[13:26] ---
    We want to question him about
    interfering with our duties the other day.
[13:30] ---
    I know nothing about it.
[13:32] ---
    Interfering with your duty?
[13:33] ---
    My son would never
    do such a thing!
[13:37] ---
    Besides, on whose authority
    are you acting?
[13:41] ---
    I'm going to tell Minato and you're going
    to get an earful, y'know!
[13:43] ---
    If you try to protect him,
    we'll take you with us too!
[13:45] ---
    What's the big idea…
[13:48] ---
    barging in like this?
[14:03] ---
    Excuse me.
[14:07] ---
    What is it?
[14:08] ---
    The captain wants to see you.
[14:09] ---
    Please come with me now, Lieutenant.
[14:17] ---
    I had some misgivings,
[14:19] ---
    but I never expected
    the members of the Police Force
[14:22] ---
    would raid the Hokage's residence
    without the proper authorization.
[14:26] ---
    My sincerest apologies.
[14:29] ---
    Well, at least no one was hurt.
[14:33] ---
    So, what does Fugaku
    think about all of this?
[14:35] ---
    He knows that he has
    to take action now.
[14:37] ---
    I'm sure he'll take appropriate
    measures of discipline.
[14:41] ---
    I just hope they ease up a little now.
[14:54] ---
    You guys!
[14:56] ---
    We're sorry, Lieutenant!
[14:58] ---
    We only did this for
    the sake of the Uchiha.
[15:08] ---
    Enough.
[15:10] ---
    Lock them up.
[15:12] ---
    Sir!
[15:15] ---
    You said you'd take
    a different path.
[15:18] ---
    And you did become stronger.
[15:21] ---
    But after all that boasting,
[15:23] ---
    I had hoped there was
    some substance to it.
[15:27] ---
    But I guess it was for nothing.
[15:33] ---
    What you ended up doing
    was empowering fools
[15:35] ---
    to indulge in idiotic behavior.
[15:39] ---
    Nothing good came out of this.
[15:43] ---
    You will never measure up
    to your brother Itachi!
[15:51] ---
    I don't need someone
    like you in my unit.
[15:55] ---
    You are hereby relieved
    of your duties as lieutenant.
[15:59] ---
    I am dismissing you
    from the Leaf Police Force.
[16:09] ---
    The Leaf Police Force did that?
[16:12] ---
    So what's going to happen
    to Sasuke?
[16:15] ---
    I don't know.
[16:17] ---
    But I wouldn't be surprised
    if he's fired from the force.
[16:22] ---
    We'll just slap him on the back
[16:24] ---
    and welcome him back
    into our team again.
[16:28] ---
    Okay!
[16:38] ---
    What the hell…
[16:40] ---
    …was I doing for
    the last three years?
[16:45] ---
    Why is he so different from me?!
[16:52] ---
    It's power… I need power.
[17:01] ---
    You've come.
[17:07] ---
    You called me,
[17:08] ---
    so you must have
    something up your sleeve.
[17:11] ---
    I just came to see
    what you're offering.
[17:16] ---
    You came just to see?
[17:20] ---
    I want to take advantage of you too.
[17:22] ---
    I figured we'd have
    a nice little chat.
[17:25] ---
    And? What do you want?
[17:29] ---
    I want power…
[17:31] ---
    Enough to beat him.
[17:33] ---
    I predicted as much.
[17:37] ---
    But…are you sure?
[17:39] ---
    Not only is Naruto Uzumaki
    the Hokage's son…
[17:42] ---
    he's also the Jinchuriki
    of the Nine Tails,
[17:46] ---
    which is essential to this village.
[17:47] ---
    If you realize your goal,
    it's possible
[17:49] ---
    that the Uchiha's standing
    in the village will worsen.
[17:53] ---
    I don't care.
[17:54] ---
    Beating him means
    everything to me…
[17:58] ---
    I don't care about
    the Uchiha or the Hidden Leaf.
[18:01] ---
    What's so funny?
[18:03] ---
    I remember a shinobi who
    deserted the village long ago
[18:05] ---
    saying something
    along those lines…
[18:09] ---
    He betrayed everyone,
[18:11] ---
    committed numerous crimes
    and in exchange…
[18:14] ---
    obtained frightening power.
[18:18] ---
    His name is Orochimaru…
[18:21] ---
    One of the Legendary Sannin,
    like Jiraiya, Naruto's mentor.
[18:26] ---
    The Legendary Sannin.
[18:29] ---
    He has knowledge of
    the myriad jutsu
[18:31] ---
    that exist in this world
    including forbidden ones.
[18:34] ---
    I can't think of a better person
    to learn from than him.
[18:42] ---
    However…he is a man
    who has lived within the darkness.
[18:46] ---
    Remember that's the price you'll pay.
[18:49] ---
    I'm looking forward to it.
[18:51] ---
    Fine then.
[18:53] ---
    Before sunrise,
    go to the tower at the border.
[18:56] ---
    I'll take care of the rest.
[19:01] ---
    We're not done yet.
[19:03] ---
    I want to know what
    you get out of this.
[19:06] ---
    It's your choice to believe me
    or to not…
[19:09] ---
    But I am one among many
    who do not look too kindly
[19:11] ---
    on that monster, the Nine Tails.
[19:16] ---
    It's a monster that could
    rampage at any moment,
[19:18] ---
    I question if it's wise to leave
    such a power unbridled…
[19:23] ---
    I feel we need the power
    to fight against it.
[19:36] ---
    Go.
[19:40] ---
    We have a contract now.
[19:43] ---
    The rest is up to you.
[19:59] ---
    Shiro!
[20:03] ---
    Take care of yourself.
[20:20] ---
    If you're gonna have
    a midnight snack,
[20:22] ---
    it's got to be rich and heavy!
[20:26] ---
    Sasuke?
[20:27] ---
    Where's he going at this hour?
[20:29] ---
    Here you go.
    Five orders of fried chicken bites!
[20:31] ---
    I gave you some extra too!
[20:32] ---
    Oh! Awesome!
[20:38] ---
    All right, our shift's over.
[20:40] ---
    Time to close the gate.
[20:47] ---
    We didn't get any advance notices
    about departures at this hour…
[20:51] ---
    Hey, we're closing the gate!
[20:59] ---
    Wait!
[22:36] ---
    I'm grateful to you.
    
    
[22:38] ---
    But this isn't enough.
    
    
[22:40] ---
    I'm not satisfied with the lackluster
    level that I'm at right now.
    
    
[22:44] ---
    I'm going to get power…
    
    
[22:47] ---
    at the side of that
    other Sannin.
    
    
[22:50] ---
    Those three years…
    
    
[22:52] ---
    I can't let those three years
    end in a blink of an eye!
