*Hagoromo and Hamura*
**[01:46] ---**
Mother loved this world.
She tried to love humans.
**[01:52] ---**
But her wish was dashed
**[01:55] ---**
so she ate the fruit of the Divine Tree
to try to protect her children.
**[01:59] ---**
However…
**[02:01] ---**
Mother's real tale of despair
begins from here…
**[02:07] ---**
Shortly afterwards,
Mother gave birth to twins.
**[02:12] ---**
They were…Hagoromo and Hamura.
**[02:28] ---**
Mother looks up at the sky
like that every day…
**[02:32] ---**
I wonder what she's looking for?
**[02:35] ---**
She never tells us anything.
No one knows what's in her heart.
**[02:42] ---**
Perhaps she has feelings that even we,
her own sons, cannot fathom.
**[02:55] ---**
Hey, Hagoromo and Hamura!
Please come with me!
**[02:58] ---**
What's the matter, Haori?
**[03:04] ---**
If you use all the water at your place,
**[03:07] ---**
there won't be any water
downstream for the rice paddies.
**[03:10] ---**
That's not my fault!
**[03:12] ---**
Wait!
What's going on?
**[03:17] ---**
I'll tell ya what's going on!
This guy is taking all the water!
**[03:20] ---**
My paddy's upstream,
so I can't help it!
**[03:24] ---**
But until now, wasn't there
enough water for everyone?
**[03:28] ---**
Well, all of a sudden,
the flow of the river's gotten weak.
**[03:43] ---**
Did something happen upstream?
**[03:46] ---**
I would go and check,
**[03:48] ---**
but there's a huge bear
roaming around this mountain.
**[03:51] ---**
You gotta be really careful.
**[03:53] ---**
Just recently, an old lady went
foraging for edible wild plants,
**[03:56] ---**
and got hurt really bad.
**[03:58] ---**
All right. We'll go check.
**[04:00] ---**
Really? That'd be great!
**[04:03] ---**
Be careful, Hagoromo.
**[04:05] ---**
We'll be fine.
**[04:07] ---**
Let's go, Hamura.
**[04:08] ---**
Right.
**[04:14] ---**
See anything?
**[04:15] ---**
Hold on a minute.
**[04:20] ---**
There's a huge boulder upstream.
**[04:31] ---**
I see…
**[04:32] ---**
So this is what's blocking
the flow of the river.
**[04:35] ---**
But where did this boulder
come from?
**[04:38] ---**
It wasn't there the last time
we were up here.
**[04:41] ---**
Either it fell from somewhere,
or someone put it there.
**[04:45] ---**
What do you bean by "someone"?
**[04:47] ---**
No one can move a boulder this big
**[04:49] ---**
other than Mother and you,
Elder Brother.
**[04:52] ---**
I put it there.
**[04:58] ---**
Hey, don't brush me off
like I'm some sort of bug…
**[05:02] ---**
‘Cuz I'm not a bug…
**[05:04] ---**
I'm a toad.
**[05:09] ---**
Hey, am I going crazy?
**[05:13] ---**
There's a toad trying to
make bad jokes…
**[05:16] ---**
Well, Elder Brother,
it must mean I'm going crazy too.
**[05:21] ---**
No, you're not going crazy.
I really am talking to you.
**[05:27] ---**
But if you think my jokes aren't funny,
then *that's* a little crazy.
**[05:37] ---**
No one's hiding around here…
**[05:39] ---**
It's not some
Ventriloquism Jutsu either.
**[05:42] ---**
You're pretty wary for a human.
**[05:46] ---**
You're pretty arrogant for a toad.
**[05:48] ---**
We toads have lived here
far longer than you.
**[05:52] ---**
You just don't know it.
**[05:54] ---**
A talking toad…
**[05:56] ---**
You think people will be happy
if we captured it and took it home?
**[05:59] ---**
Fool!
**[06:00] ---**
Do you really think you both
can catch me?
**[06:03] ---**
For a toad, you sure talk big…
**[06:07] ---**
It seems we have a guest.
**[06:17] ---**
That's a huge bear!
**[06:20] ---**
Perfect timing.
I'll show you just how strong I am.
**[06:37] ---**
I placed this boulder here
so I could meet you two.
**[06:41] ---**
My name is Gamamaru.
**[06:43] ---**
And you two are Hagoromo
and Hamura, right?
**[06:46] ---**
A toad just addressed us
by our first names…
**[06:49] ---**
Come with me, you two.
**[06:54] ---**
Oops, I almost forgot.
**[06:59] ---**
Oh…
Not bad.
**[07:11] ---**
Why did you bring us here?
**[07:14] ---**
Do you know what that is?
**[07:16] ---**
Of course.
**[07:18] ---**
That's the Peak of Demise.
**[07:21] ---**
Have you ever seen
what's beyond that?
**[07:24] ---**
No, never.
**[07:26] ---**
Mother has warned us
not to go near that peak.
**[07:29] ---**
Everyone must follow that law.
**[07:31] ---**
No one has ever seen
what's on the other side.
**[07:35] ---**
The truth behind the Divine Tree
is beyond that peak.
**[07:38] ---**
The truth behind the Divine Tree?
**[07:40] ---**
The Divine Tree has been
absorbing the power of this land.
**[07:44] ---**
As long as that tree exists,
the land will continue to weaken.
**[07:48] ---**
Is that true?
**[07:49] ---**
But I've heard that it's because of
the power of the Divine Tree
**[07:52] ---**
that this land has thrived.
**[07:53] ---**
You're wrong!
**[07:55] ---**
If you want to know the truth,
**[07:56] ---**
go see what's on the other side
of that peak.
**[07:59] ---**
Later!
**[08:05] ---**
"The truth"?
**[08:12] ---**
Is Lady Kaguya really not here?
**[08:14] ---**
How many times must I tell you?
She's not here.
**[08:18] ---**
Welcome home,
Masters Hagoromo and Hamura.
**[08:21] ---**
What's the matter?
**[08:22] ---**
This man is very persistent.
**[08:25] ---**
Who are you?
**[08:27] ---**
I'm a traveling medicine peddler.
**[08:29] ---**
I wanted to do some business here
**[08:31] ---**
and came to get
Lady Kaguya's permission.
**[08:35] ---**
Where is Mother?
**[08:36] ---**
She said she would be away tonight.
**[08:39] ---**
I see, so she's gone out again.
**[08:42] ---**
She's been away a lot lately.
**[08:43] ---**
What do I do now?
**[08:49] ---**
Well now, what do you have here?
**[08:51] ---**
Let me take a look
at your medicines.
**[08:57] ---**
What are you doing to
my products?!
**[08:59] ---**
These are just weeds
and moldy nuts…
**[09:03] ---**
This one's a poisonous mushroom.
**[09:05] ---**
If you take these,
you'll get even sicker.
**[09:09] ---**
You're just a snake oil salesman…
**[09:13] ---**
This village has our mother,
my elder brother and me.
**[09:17] ---**
We can cure any illness anywhere,
at anytime.
**[09:20] ---**
No one will buy stuff like this.
**[09:23] ---**
Your power…
Is it from the Divine Tree?
**[09:26] ---**
Just get out of here…
or you'll be sorry.
**[09:38] ---**
Damn it!
How dare they belittle me!
**[09:43] ---**
They made me so mad,
my back pain is flaring up again.
**[09:49] ---**
The Divine Tree, huh?
**[09:52] ---**
If I take even just a small branch,
I could sell it for a fortune…
**[09:57] ---**
Yes! While the devil is away…
**[09:58] ---**
Just forget about it.
**[10:00] ---**
Don't be foolish enough
to go near the Divine Tree. You'll die.
**[10:03] ---**
You are—!
**[10:05] ---**
I apologize for earlier.
**[10:07] ---**
My younger brother
is quite hot-tempered.
**[10:10] ---**
What do you want?!
**[10:11] ---**
Oww!
**[10:13] ---**
I want to ask you something.
**[10:15] ---**
Are you joking?!
**[10:17] ---**
You're not getting
anything out of me!
**[10:18] ---**
If you answer me,
I'll heal your back.
**[10:24] ---**
Like doing that will cure anything.
**[10:26] ---**
If it's that simple,
no one would go through…
**[10:28] ---**
What? The pain's gone?!
**[10:31] ---**
Hey! You really did fix my back!
**[10:34] ---**
So, will you answer my questions?
**[10:37] ---**
Yes! Anything!
**[10:40] ---**
You've traveled to
many different places, correct?
**[10:43] ---**
Oh, yes.
That's how I make my living.
**[10:47] ---**
Have you ever seen
what's beyond that peak?
**[10:50] ---**
No, I haven't.
But I've seen many other lands…
**[10:55] ---**
What do they say about
my mother in other lands?
**[10:57] ---**
Well, that's…um…
**[11:00] ---**
Tell me even if
it's something negative.
**[11:02] ---**
Okay.
**[11:04] ---**
There are rumors about people
rebelling here and there,
**[11:09] ---**
over Lady Kaguya's
Ritual of the Divine Tree.
**[11:12] ---**
And in order to suppress them,
**[11:14] ---**
Lady Kaguya has
annihilated the instigators.
**[11:18] ---**
Lately, rumors are swirling that
Lady Kaguya is just a tyrant…
**[11:24] ---**
"Annihilated"?
**[11:25] ---**
No wonder Mother has been
away a lot…
**[11:29] ---**
Leave, and never return.
It's for your own good.
**[11:34] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[11:49] ---**
Everything is going well.
**[11:52] ---**
Elder Brother?
**[11:53] ---**
Hmm?
Oh good, no news is good news.
**[11:57] ---**
Elder Brother, are you still thinking
about what that toad said?
**[12:02] ---**
No… It's not about that, but…
**[12:10] ---**
They're part of the Ritual
of the Divine Tree…
**[12:17] ---**
No way!
**[12:19] ---**
Elder Brother!
**[12:21] ---**
Haori!
**[12:23] ---**
Hagoromo…
Hamura…
**[12:25] ---**
What's going on?
**[12:26] ---**
I've received notice
to serve the Divine Tree.
**[12:30] ---**
But—!
**[12:32] ---**
I have no choice.
**[12:34] ---**
This is a ceremony that Lady Kaguya
established eons ago…
**[12:38] ---**
Hagoromo, Hamura…
**[12:40] ---**
It was only for a short time,
but I'm glad I got to meet you two.
**[12:44] ---**
Please remember me.
**[12:49] ---**
Haori!
**[13:01] ---**
Mother…
**[13:03] ---**
Please end
the Ritual of the Divine Tree.
**[13:07] ---**
That is not possible.
**[13:09] ---**
But—!
**[13:10] ---**
I will not tolerate any defiance,
even if you are my sons.
**[13:15] ---**
Then please tell me…
**[13:16] ---**
What happens to those who go to
the Divine Tree as part of this ritual?
**[13:21] ---**
Why does no one ever return?
**[13:24] ---**
This ritual is necessary…
until the others arrive.
**[13:29] ---**
"The others"?
**[13:32] ---**
You don't need to know
about them just yet.
**[13:38] ---**
Hagoromo, Hamura…
I am leaving once more.
**[13:42] ---**
Take care of things in my absence.
**[13:44] ---**
Yes.
**[13:52] ---**
Elder Brother…
You're not thinking of…
**[13:54] ---**
Yes, I intend to climb that peak.
**[13:58] ---**
If Mother finds out, you'll get
into a great deal of trouble.
**[14:01] ---**
I'm prepared for the consequences.
**[14:04] ---**
Okay, Elder Brother.
I'm coming with you.
**[14:27] ---**
What is this?!
**[14:30] ---**
Elder Brother!
**[14:34] ---**
Hamura!
**[14:55] ---**
What's wrong?
**[14:56] ---**
Elder Brother!
Can you deal with this cocoon?
**[15:03] ---**
Haori!
**[15:06] ---**
Haori! Wake up, Haori!
**[15:09] ---**
Elder Brother…
**[15:11] ---**
It's no use…
**[15:14] ---**
She's dead.
**[15:22] ---**
So this is…the truth behind
the Ritual of the Divine Tree.
**[15:30] ---**
Elder Brother! Your eyes!
**[15:36] ---**
Come out, Gamamaru!
**[15:45] ---**
It seems like you went
beyond that peak…
**[15:55] ---**
Come with me.
**[16:04] ---**
Where are we?
**[16:05] ---**
This is the Land of Toads.
**[16:11] ---**
What is this…strange power I feel?
**[16:15] ---**
Oh… I'm impressed that a human
can feel the power here.
**[16:20] ---**
The natural power known as
Sage Power flows freely here.
**[16:24] ---**
And so, if you use this power…
**[16:29] ---**
Even I can do something like this.
**[16:32] ---**
Wow…
**[16:34] ---**
Follow me!
**[16:41] ---**
This is known as the Memory Stone.
**[16:44] ---**
"Memory Stone"?
**[16:45] ---**
Everything that occurs aboveground
is recorded in this stone…
**[16:50] ---**
Look at what happened in the past…
**[16:55] ---**
Long ago, that tree fell
from the sky…
**[17:00] ---**
And, as if in pursuit, your mother
Kaguya appeared here.
**[17:06] ---**
And when your mother arrived,
**[17:08] ---**
she fell in love with
the emperor of this land
**[17:11] ---**
and she became pregnant with you.
**[17:13] ---**
However,
**[17:15] ---**
Kaguya's destiny with humans
was to be trifled by them
**[17:18] ---**
and in the end,
she became their enemy.
**[17:21] ---**
Kaguya acquired the power
of the Divine Tree,
**[17:23] ---**
and your father,
along with his people,
**[17:26] ---**
were sacrificed to it.
**[17:29] ---**
But, to make sure
mankind didn't perish,
**[17:31] ---**
she revived some of the humans,
**[17:33] ---**
erased their memories
and put them back.
**[17:36] ---**
Only Kaguya knows the truth.
**[17:39] ---**
Where is Mother from anyway?
**[17:41] ---**
Why does she protect
the Divine Tree?
**[17:43] ---**
I don't know.
**[17:45] ---**
Perhaps it's related to the fact that
she appeared from far up in the sky.
**[17:49] ---**
One thing *is* clear…
**[17:52] ---**
Since the Divine Tree took root,
**[17:54] ---**
the Nature Energy of this land
is being depleted.
**[17:59] ---**
How could that happen?
**[18:02] ---**
Not just from the land…
but from humans too.
**[18:05] ---**
As long as that Divine Tree exists…
**[18:07] ---**
this great land will wither,
and we will suffer the same fate.
**[18:18] ---**
We must speak with mother.
**[18:21] ---**
Will she even listen to us?
**[18:25] ---**
Hagoromo,
your mother's power is immense.
**[18:29] ---**
I doubt that you can
confront her directly.
**[18:33] ---**
Even if you are her son.
**[18:36] ---**
Gamamaru, will you teach me
how to use Sage Power?
**[18:41] ---**
Elder Brother!
**[18:42] ---**
You're not planning to fight Mother,
are you?!
**[18:45] ---**
It's just in case…
**[18:47] ---**
I see…
**[18:48] ---**
If you, who inherited Kaguya's power,
acquire Sage Power…
**[18:53] ---**
you could definitely take her on.
**[18:56] ---**
– However…
– What is it?
**[18:58] ---**
Teaching you Sage Power
is very risky.
**[19:02] ---**
Why is that?
**[19:03] ---**
Is there any guarantee that
after acquiring Sage Power,
**[19:06] ---**
you won't become the same
as your mother?
**[19:09] ---**
Gamamaru… After coming this far,
have you become scared?
**[19:12] ---**
What did you say?
**[19:14] ---**
You're contradicting yourself.
**[19:16] ---**
Why did you lie in wait for us, then?
**[19:19] ---**
You planned to pit us against Mother
and make us fight from the very start.
**[19:26] ---**
You're pretty shrewd for a human,
aren't you?
**[19:29] ---**
Yes, I had a revelation.
**[19:32] ---**
Revelation?
**[19:33] ---**
Yes, a dream.
Toads rarely, if ever, dream.
**[19:37] ---**
But that dream was
more like a prophecy…
**[19:40] ---**
I dreamed of you battling Kaguya.
**[19:45] ---**
How did it end?
**[19:46] ---**
I don't think his dream
went that far.
**[19:48] ---**
If it did,
he wouldn't be so nervous.
**[19:50] ---**
Wha—?! How can you see so far
into a toad's heart so clearly…
**[19:54] ---**
Just who are you?
**[20:06] ---**
Clear your mind…
**[20:08] ---**
Just feel the Nature Energy
and take it into yourself.
**[20:21] ---**
*He's a surprise…*
**[20:23] ---**
*Hagoromo's acquired Sage Power*
*in no time at all.*
**[20:35] ---**
Mother!
You're back so soon…
**[20:38] ---**
Where is Hagoromo?
**[20:42] ---**
Elder Brother is still out
patrolling the village…
**[20:45] ---**
Hamura!
**[20:48] ---**
Hiding things from me is useless.
**[20:59] ---**
It's useless…even if you try to
repel me with your Byakugan…
**[21:04] ---**
My Byakugan is far more
superior to yours.
**[22:48] ---**
You two broke the law,
and went to the peak, didn't you?
**[22:53] ---**
Hiding things from me is useless.
**[22:55] ---**
I can read your thoughts
and feelings.
**[22:58] ---**
Then why?
**[22:59] ---**
You must know why we're
angry with you, Mother.
**[23:02] ---**
It seems that you were in love
with that young girl…
**[23:06] ---**
Next time on Naruto Shippuden:
"A Fabricated Past"
**[23:11] ---**
Mother, even you must have
believed in that in the past!
**[23:14] ---**
A FABRICATED PAST
**[23:25] ---**
Tune in again!
