**[01:33] ---**
*Run, Kankuro
*
**[02:03] ---**
Damn you!
**[02:22] ---**
Cease fire immediately!
We might hit Lord Kazekage.
**[02:27] ---**
Y-Yes sir!
**[02:29] ---**
Cease fire!
**[02:31] ---**
Cease fire!
**[02:32] ---**
Cease fire!
**[02:34] ---**
Stop the attack!
**[02:41] ---**
G-Gaara...
**[02:43] ---**
What in the world is he after...?
**[02:52] ---**
Is he going to leave the village?!
**[02:58] ---**
*My man Sasori must really
be tired of waiting for me by now.*
**[03:03] ---**
*Is he going to take him
away alive?!*
**[03:07] ---**
I won't let him get away!
**[03:08] ---**
Kankuro!
**[03:10] ---**
Don't be running off carelessly!
**[03:12] ---**
Wait until we can get
a unit together!
**[03:14] ---**
We'll lose him if
we just sit around!
**[03:16] ---**
I'll catch up soon!
**[03:18] ---**
Don't go after him too far
on your own!
**[03:19] ---**
Yeah...! I know!
**[03:27] ---**
*That jerk was after Gaara
from the start?!*
**[03:31] ---**
Lord Kankuro!
**[03:32] ---**
Don't let him get away,
no matter what!
**[03:34] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[03:38] ---**
*He landed...?!*
**[03:40] ---**
*There should be a unit
securing that area there...*
**[03:45] ---**
My mission is accomplished.
**[03:49] ---**
You're late...
**[03:51] ---**
I told you not to keep me waiting!
**[03:54] ---**
Cut me some slack...
This guy was pretty strong.
**[04:00] ---**
That's why I told you to make sure
you were prepared.
**[04:05] ---**
How about the preparations here?
**[04:06] ---**
Things are all ready here.
**[04:07] ---**
I had plenty of time, you see...
**[04:09] ---**
I was fully prepared unlike you.
**[04:14] ---**
Then, let's get out of here.
**[04:26] ---**
*I'll never be back here again...*
**[04:41] ---**
Hold it!
**[04:42] ---**
What is it...?
**[04:45] ---**
It's too quiet...
**[04:49] ---**
There was a unit securing
the village entrance.
**[04:52] ---**
There should be quite a commotion
if the enemy landed there...
**[04:56] ---**
And yet, I don't hear
a single thing!
**[05:00] ---**
And...I've been sending
several messages,
**[05:04] ---**
yet there hasn't been
a single response.
**[05:06] ---**
What the hell's going on here?!
**[05:12] ---**
L-Lord Kankuro!
**[05:15] ---**
What is it?!
**[05:29] ---**
Wh-What's this...?!
**[05:33] ---**
What a mess...
**[05:39] ---**
They weren't attacked just now...
**[05:41] ---**
It might've been before Gaara
started to fight...
**[05:44] ---**
There were even elite Anbu Black Ops
members here...
**[05:47] ---**
They must have been attacked at once
by a rather large group?
**[05:51] ---**
Or perhaps...
**[05:53] ---**
Perhaps...?
**[05:55] ---**
No. It's nothing...
**[05:59] ---**
*I made a thorough investigation*
**[06:01] ---**
*when Gaara took
the Kazekage position...*
**[06:05] ---**
*No way could there be a traitor
among the Hidden Sand Shinobi!*
**[06:12] ---**
From the looks of this,
**[06:14] ---**
the guys who took Gaara just
passed straight through here.
**[06:18] ---**
Hurry! We're going after them!
**[06:19] ---**
- Yes, sir!
- Yes, sir!
**[06:25] ---**
There's someone still alive!
**[06:29] ---**
Stop! Don't move him carelessly...
**[06:34] ---**
A paper bomb?!
**[06:57] ---**
It looks like they fell for your trap,
Sasori my man.
**[07:02] ---**
Of course. Traps are made
to be fallen into.
**[07:07] ---**
I get it.
**[07:15] ---**
I'm home! I've come back, now!
**[07:22] ---**
Whoa! Just as I'd expect,
**[07:25] ---**
things get pretty dusty when
you leave it for years!
**[08:01] ---**
Sasuke... I'm back...
**[08:06] ---**
*And I'm here to get you back...*
**[08:29] ---**
It... It can't be...!
**[08:31] ---**
This means the group
**[08:32] ---**
that went to get Lord Kazekage
back has been...
**[08:35] ---**
Don't tell me...
they got Kankuro, too...
**[08:40] ---**
Get back! It's going to collapse!
**[08:44] ---**
What's that?!
**[08:52] ---**
K-Kankuro...
**[08:56] ---**
I was only able to save
two of them...
**[09:00] ---**
These guys are hurt!
**[09:01] ---**
Get them some medical attention!
**[09:02] ---**
What're you going to do?!
**[09:04] ---**
Isn't it obvious?!
**[09:06] ---**
I'm going to get Gaara back!
**[09:09] ---**
Kankuro...!
**[09:10] ---**
He was strong enough
to beat Gaara!
**[09:12] ---**
You don't stand a chance against him!
**[09:15] ---**
So are you saying we should
just forsake Gaara?!
**[09:17] ---**
That's not what I'm saying!
**[09:19] ---**
If we can just find out
where their hideout is,
**[09:20] ---**
we can form a unit later
and attack!
**[09:25] ---**
*I guess I can't stop him, huh...?*
**[09:27] ---**
Listen up! Just follow them...
**[09:30] ---**
Don't even think about
making a move!
**[09:31] ---**
Yeah... If I can!
**[09:36] ---**
*That Kankuro...!*
**[09:57] ---**
*They're mocking me...*
**[10:19] ---**
Is it Gaara's sand...?!
**[10:41] ---**
*Hang on... Gaara!*
**[10:49] ---**
I leave this to you!
**[10:51] ---**
- Yes, sir!
- Yes, sir!
**[11:09] ---**
Deploy a pursuit unit and
have them go after Kankuro immediately!
**[11:13] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[11:14] ---**
And contact the Hidden Leaf immediately
regarding this situation!
**[11:17] ---**
Tell them it's an emergency! Got it?!
**[11:20] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[11:22] ---**
*I have a bad feeling about this...*
**[11:24] ---**
*Something...
Something's about to happen...!*
**[12:04] ---**
I'm counting on you, Takamaru!
**[12:14] ---**
Go!
**[12:24] ---**
Lord Kazekage...
**[12:26] ---**
It'll be fine. I'm sure he'll come back
right away...
**[13:10] ---**
This way, huh?!
**[13:35] ---**
*Wonderful...*
**[13:37] ---**
*I couldn't help reading it
over twice...*
**[13:40] ---**
*I guess I should get to bed...*
**[13:45] ---**
*Huh...? It's already morning...?*
**[13:47] ---**
Uh-oh... Not good.
**[13:49] ---**
I still haven't made the unit list
for the new team.
**[13:52] ---**
Not good, not good at all...
**[13:56] ---**
Where did I put...
those documents again?
**[14:19] ---**
All right...!
**[14:33] ---**
What're you doing up so early...?
**[14:44] ---**
Everyone's still sleeping,
you know.
**[14:48] ---**
You...?!
**[14:52] ---**
I can't leave the village unattended
for too long...
**[14:56] ---**
My business here is finished,
**[14:58] ---**
so I just thought I'd head back
as soon as possible...
**[15:00] ---**
Without even eating breakfast?
**[15:03] ---**
I'll just find a teahouse or something
along the way and eat there.
**[15:06] ---**
*What're you doing here?*
**[15:09] ---**
It's a pain, but I'm supposed
to be your guide.
**[15:15] ---**
I have no choice seeing
as how it's a mission.
**[15:18] ---**
Must be quite a hassle...
**[15:24] ---**
Here is fine...
**[15:26] ---**
The next time we meet,
**[15:27] ---**
we will be at
the Chunin Exams, huh?
**[15:29] ---**
Yeah... See you around...
**[15:35] ---**
It's about time you become
a Jonin.
**[15:38] ---**
It'll happen before you know it
**[15:39] ---**
if you stop saying stuff's a pain
and just carry out your missions...
**[15:51] ---**
What a pain...
**[16:13] ---**
All right!
**[16:21] ---**
At last!
**[16:35] ---**
*I don't like this wind...*
**[17:00] ---**
What is it, Sasori my man?
**[17:02] ---**
I never thought...
someone would be following us.
**[17:06] ---**
Hold it!
**[17:14] ---**
I found you...!
**[17:17] ---**
You will return Gaara to me!
**[17:27] ---**
Deidara... You go on ahead...
**[17:36] ---**
*As I recall...*
**[17:37] ---**
*he was the one who took Gaara
using that strange bird...*
**[17:43] ---**
*Then this must be the guy
who set the trap in the village...*
**[17:55] ---**
I'll show you...my puppet show!
**[18:00] ---**
Crow!
**[18:03] ---**
Black Ant!
**[18:04] ---**
Salamander!
**[18:26] ---**
I'll say it again...
You will give Gaara back to me!
**[18:33] ---**
You're late!
**[18:35] ---**
Finally, you're here...
**[18:37] ---**
Gee, sorry about that...
**[18:40] ---**
This time it took longer
than I thought
**[18:42] ---**
to write up the documents
for the new team.
**[18:44] ---**
Today's our new team's first mission!
Aren't you fired up?!
**[18:51] ---**
You've always been like that,
Kakashi Sensei!
**[18:54] ---**
Oh, come on.
You're already annoying!
**[18:56] ---**
It can't be helped.
**[18:59] ---**
Kakashi Sensei's always had
that look of disinterest!
**[19:02] ---**
*I'm starting to lose
my dignity here.*
**[19:14] ---**
*If I'm not mistaken,
that's one of the Hidden Sand's...*
**[19:24] ---**
Puppet Master Jutsu, huh...?
**[19:31] ---**
Then I'm going on ahead!
**[19:33] ---**
You're not going anywhere!
**[19:49] ---**
Wha--?!
**[19:51] ---**
I don't like waiting for people,
**[19:53] ---**
and I don't like
making people wait...
**[20:00] ---**
I'll finish this right away.
**[21:39] ---**
With his brother's life at stake,
it looks as though this is a match
**[21:40] ---**
that the Challenger Kankuro
cannot afford to lose?!
**[21:43] ---**
*Well, he is one of the finest
Puppet Masters in the Hidden Sand.*
**[21:44] ---**
Meanwhile, the Champion Sasori
has yet to show his skills,
**[21:46] ---**
making his presence even creepier!
**[21:48] ---**
Wow, Kankuro made the first move
by bringing out his Crow!
**[21:51] ---**
And it just went down...
**[21:52] ---**
However, the challenger still has
an ace known as the Salamander....
**[21:55] ---**
Wow, and just as we speak,
there's the Salamander!
**[21:58] ---**
What sort of trick will it display for us?!
**[22:01] ---**
Next time:
