    STABILIZE
[01:51] ---
    If I focus on the Rasengan,
[01:53] ---
    *the Change in Chakra Nature
    becomes unstable.
[01:55] ---
    *However, if I focus on
    the Change in Chakra Nature,
[01:59] ---
    the Rasengan doesn't turn out well.
[02:09] ---
    I'm so pathetic...
[02:12] ---
    It's because I believe...
[02:15] ---
    you're the only Shinobi who can go
    beyond the Fourth Hokage.
[02:17] ---
    That's what I believe.
[02:23] ---
    *Here Kakashi Sensei has
    such high hopes for me...
[02:27] ---
    And I'm not fulfilling his hopes at all...
[02:34] ---
    What should we do?
    Should we stop for now?
[02:40] ---
    If that's what he wants to do...
[02:43] ---
    I... I...
[03:35] ---
    Damn it!
[03:38] ---
    I don't have time to just sit around!
[03:42] ---
    Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu!
[04:19] ---
    Be careful, guys!
[04:20] ---
    There's another one turning
    into the Nine-Tails!
[04:37] ---
    Captain Yamato, help!
[04:40] ---
    Tenzou, it's the Nine-Tails again!
[04:41] ---
    Damn it!
[05:06] ---
    You okay?
[05:16] ---
    It's been one full day since
    you started training
[05:18] ---
    to add the wind Change in Chakra Nature
    to the Rasengan...
[05:22] ---
    And you're using around
    200 Shadow Clones.
[05:24] ---
    It would take one person
    4,800 hours to complete that training...
[05:30] ---
    I guess it's still not nearly enough.
[05:32] ---
    But in this training,
    the Chakra control is too hard,
[05:36] ---
    and 200 Shadow Clones is my limit...
[05:39] ---
    I get the feeling...
    I'll never be able to do this.
[05:45] ---
    It takes a ton of concentration
[05:48] ---
    to form the Rasengan in the first place.
[05:50] ---
    It's too much to try to create
    a Change in Chakra Nature
[05:53] ---
    on top of that.
[05:56] ---
    You're unusually negative.
    It's not like you.
[06:01] ---
    Is that the Naruto Uzumaki
    I know so well?
[06:11] ---
    Sai...
[06:13] ---
    You'll catch a cold.
[06:15] ---
    How's Naruto doing?
[06:20] ---
    Adding a Change in Chakra Nature
    to the Rasengan
[06:22] ---
    seems harder than imagined.
[06:27] ---
    Naruto isn't all that intelligent
    to begin with, after all...
[06:30] ---
    That's why Kakashi Sensei
    is having him learn this way...
[06:34] ---
    Yeah, training only Naruto can do...
[06:38] ---
    Training results are doubled
    with two clones,
[06:42] ---
    and multiplied by a hundred
    with a hundred clones...
[06:46] ---
    But...there's a limit.
[06:47] ---
    It's impossible to advance with
    just effort and fortitude
[06:49] ---
    when one is trying to incorporate
[06:51] ---
    a Change in Chakra Nature
    into a Jutsu...
[06:53] ---
    To say nothing of the fact that
[06:55] ---
    the Rasengan is a Jutsu invented
    by the Fourth Hokage.
[06:58] ---
    It might not be possible
    for Naruto to add
[07:02] ---
    a Change in Chakra Nature
    to such a Jutsu...
[07:13] ---
    That's right.
    Naruto's an idiot, after all...
[07:17] ---
    What?
[07:18] ---
    He's clumsy and tactless.
[07:20] ---
    There's no way he could do something
    as delicate as
[07:23] ---
    incorporating a Change in Chakra Nature
    into the Rasengan.
[07:28] ---
    And yet Kakashi Sensei and
    Captain Yamato have been
[07:31] ---
    sticking it out with him all this time...
[07:34] ---
    And here in the village,
[07:35] ---
    they have formed units to fight
    against the Akatsuki.
[07:38] ---
    It's just...a waste of manpower.
[07:43] ---
    I don't understand what
    the Hokage can expect
[07:45] ---
    from a hopeless guy like Naruto...
[07:53] ---
    I'll pound you if you say anything else.
[07:58] ---
    What do you know about Naruto?!
[08:01] ---
    Yes, Naruto is indeed a real idiot!
[08:04] ---
    He's clumsy, a goof and a birdbrain!
[08:07] ---
    But no one does the unexpected
    more than him!
[08:09] ---
    He's saved us countless times!
[08:12] ---
    Every time someone expects him to fail,
[08:14] ---
    he proves them wrong!
[08:16] ---
    That's who Naruto Uzumaki is!
[08:20] ---
    If you're any kind of teammate,
    you'll keep that in mind!
[08:25] ---
    What're you grinning about?
[08:26] ---
    I'll pound you.
[08:27] ---
    Please, don't do that.
[08:29] ---
    But sometimes knowledge found
    in books really can be useful.
[08:36] ---
    The "Understanding Other
    People's Feelings" series...?
[08:40] ---
    "Words Reveal True Feelings..."
[08:44] ---
    Sai, you...
[08:46] ---
    I know that you believe in Naruto.
[08:50] ---
    Naruto will never let you down, Sakura.
[08:54] ---
    What...? You tricked me...!
[08:58] ---
    It would be too much for Naruto to bear
    if he kept eating those awful mud balls
[09:03] ---
    and didn't have any results to
    show for his training.
[09:06] ---
    What do you mean by mud balls?!
[09:08] ---
    I simply prioritized effectiveness
    ahead of taste!
[09:10] ---
    Before reading into
    the true feelings of others...
[09:13] ---
    you should learn how not to talk
    about your own!
[09:15] ---
    It'll be fine! Naruto will pull it off!
[09:20] ---
    For crying out loud...
[09:24] ---
    Naruto...
[09:26] ---
    Hang in there!
[09:28] ---
    But I don't think it'll work this time...
[09:33] ---
    You have to do it anyway.
[09:34] ---
    Then could you look to the left
    while looking to the right
[09:38] ---
    if someone told you to?!
[09:43] ---
    Indeed...
[09:44] ---
    That is impossible.
[09:46] ---
    I see... That's what this is about...
[09:51] ---
    Then I guess it's not outside
    the realm of possibility.
[09:53] ---
    Huh?!
[09:56] ---
    Shadow Clone Jutsu!
[10:00] ---
    By looking to the left...
[10:02] ---
    while looking to the right...
[10:05] ---
    This is what you mean, right?
[10:11] ---
    I get it!
[10:13] ---
    Did he figure something out?
[10:15] ---
    Shadow Clone Jutsu!
[10:43] ---
    You went to the trouble of
    calling us back here
[10:45] ---
    just to seal the Two-Tails?
[10:48] ---
    It will take three days.
    Prepare yourselves.
[10:53] ---
    Three days...?
[10:54] ---
    This'll take forever, man.
    It's raining over here.
[10:58] ---
    Hidan... I don't want to hear
    that from you.
[11:01] ---
    I was this close to killing
    all those Hidden Leaf idiots.
[11:05] ---
    And here I was just about to
    make those atheists realize
[11:07] ---
    the existence of the Way of Jashin!
[11:11] ---
    The Hidden Leaf aren't atheists.
[11:14] ---
    They consider their predecessors
    as gods
[11:15] ---
    and act based on the philosophy
    of the will of fire.
[11:19] ---
    Well, I suppose we could
    call something like that
[11:21] ---
    a justification to fight.
[11:24] ---
    Huh...?!
[11:25] ---
    You jerk! Are you insulting me? Huh?!
[11:29] ---
    No... I've no intention of insulting
[11:32] ---
    your reason for fighting in particular.
[11:35] ---
    I'm in the same boat as you, after all.
[11:39] ---
    It doesn't matter what
    the reason for war is.
[11:42] ---
    Religion. Philosophy. Resources.
[11:46] ---
    Land. Grudges. Love.
[11:49] ---
    A whim...
[11:52] ---
    No matter how stupid they may be,
[11:54] ---
    they're all reasons worth getting
    into war over.
[11:58] ---
    There will always be war.
[12:00] ---
    The reason can be dealt with later...
[12:02] ---
    Our Instinct is to seek out battles.
[12:04] ---
    Nobody's listening to
    your long-winded speech!
[12:09] ---
    I've got my own way of doing things.
[12:11] ---
    I've got my own goals.
[12:14] ---
    I've no intention of giving up everything
    for this organization!
[12:18] ---
    As long as you're affiliated with
    the Akatsuki organization,
[12:21] ---
    you will collaborate with our goal.
[12:25] ---
    Once the Akatsuki's goal is attained,
[12:27] ---
    your goals will also be realized.
[12:30] ---
    Heh, you can act cool all you want,
[12:34] ---
    but that doesn't change the fact that
[12:36] ---
    all the Akatsuki wants
    to do is make money!
[12:38] ---
    You're the same as Kakuzu...
[12:40] ---
    That's the type of reason for fighting
    I hate the most.
[12:44] ---
    You're right...
[12:46] ---
    Our immediate goal is indeed money.
[12:49] ---
    But the Akatsuki's true goal lies
    elsewhere.
[12:54] ---
    It will cost a large amount of money
    to realize that goal.
[12:57] ---
    I'm the second newest member
    after Tobi,
[13:00] ---
    so I haven't heard any of
    the details from you.
[13:04] ---
    You just plan stuff behind my back...
[13:07] ---
    Heh... Are you sulking?
[13:09] ---
    Then I guess it's about time I told you.
[13:14] ---
    The Akatsuki's ultimate goal can
    be accomplished in steps.
[13:19] ---
    And there are three steps in total...
[13:21] ---
    The first step is money.
[13:25] ---
    And the second step is
    to use that money
[13:27] ---
    to create the first war contract organization
[13:29] ---
    in the history of the Shinobi world.
[13:33] ---
    Come on!
[13:34] ---
    That's the same thing
    the other Shinobi villages are doing.
[13:38] ---
    That's just completing missions
    and receiving payment.
[13:41] ---
    You want to become the leader
[13:43] ---
    of some tiny village that
    no land will hire?
[13:47] ---
    How stupid...
[13:50] ---
    A village in service of the land...?
[13:52] ---
    You've got it all wrong...
[13:54] ---
    What?
[13:56] ---
    I'll explain it to you sequentially.
[14:01] ---
    LAND OF EARTH LAND OF SNOW
    
    
    
    
    
    
    LAND OF FIRE
    
    
    LAND OF WIND LAND OF WATER
    
    
    In lands with powerful Ninja villages,
    the Shinobi business assumes
[14:06] ---
    a significant role
    in the income of these lands.
[14:10] ---
    You could say these Shinobi villages
    earn large amounts of money and
[14:13] ---
    support the economy of the lands
    by fighting battles
[14:15] ---
    both within and beyond their borders.
[14:18] ---
    In other words, a certain amount
    of war is necessary
[14:22] ---
    for a land to obtain stable profit.
[14:25] ---
    But in this day and age,
    although there are small battles,
[14:29] ---
    the great wars of the past are gone.
[14:33] ---
    The lands downsize the villages
[14:35] ---
    and many Shinobi
    have nowhere to go.
[14:38] ---
    Shinobi exist to fight.
[14:41] ---
    That is why they are rewarded
    for risking their lives
[14:43] ---
    for the sake of their land.
[14:46] ---
    The Five Great Nations are fine...
[14:48] ---
    Both the lands and their villages
    are large and trusted.
[14:52] ---
    They receive several missions
    from other lands
[14:53] ---
    and are quite stable.
[14:55] ---
    But it doesn't work that way
    for the smaller lands.
[14:59] ---
    It costs a lot to maintain
    a Shinobi village,
[15:01] ---
    and those costs remain more or less
    the same in both war and peacetime.
[15:07] ---
    That being said,
[15:08] ---
    if a village is downsized
    too drastically,
[15:10] ---
    they can't survive if
    a war suddenly breaks out.
[15:14] ---
    So we will mobilize the necessary amount
    of Shinobi
[15:17] ---
    only when needed without allegiance
    to a land...
[15:23] ---
    and create an organization that,
    only with the necessary forces,
[15:26] ---
    will take on wars from small villages
    and land for money...
[15:31] ---
    In the beginning,
    we'll fight any war for a small cost
[15:35] ---
    and gain control of the war trade.
[15:37] ---
    Then we'll use the Tailed Beasts
    to create wars
[15:39] ---
    as big or small as the market requires.
[15:42] ---
    And eventually...
[15:44] ---
    we'll control, and have a monopoly
    on all wars!
[15:51] ---
    In the wake of this,
[15:53] ---
    the Shinobi village system
    of the Great Lands will collapse...
[15:57] ---
    and they'll have no choice
    but to use the Akatsuki...
[16:00] ---
    And then we'll reach our true goal,
    which lies ahead...
[16:12] ---
    The third step of our goal...
[16:20] ---
    We will...
[16:25] ---
    ...take over the world.
[16:48] ---
    I see...
[16:51] ---
    Umm... about Kurenai...
[17:02] ---
    Contact the relevant parties
    about the funeral.
[17:06] ---
    I'll tell Kurenai...
[17:07] ---
    No... I'll do it.
[17:11] ---
    I'll tell her.
[17:14] ---
    I have a message for her
    from Captain Asuma...
[17:27] ---
    Yes!
[17:28] ---
    Yeah! I'm kind of getting
    the hang of it!
[17:38] ---
    I see... So that's what
    your idea was, huh?
[17:43] ---
    You formed the Rasengan
    by using a clone
[17:45] ---
    to handle the Change in Chakra Form
    while you released the Chakra.
[17:52] ---
    Right! I just needed a third clone
[17:55] ---
    to handle the wind Change
    in Chakra Nature.
[18:00] ---
    If I can't look left and right by myself...
[18:03] ---
    then I just needed to create clones
[18:05] ---
    to look left and right and
    divide up the responsibility!
[18:11] ---
    So my Shadow Clone stunt earlier
    gave you a hint, huh?
[18:15] ---
    *That being said,
    only Naruto has both the Chakra
[18:18] ---
    *and the skill with Shadow Clones
    for that method to work.
[18:21] ---
    I couldn't do it like that.
[18:23] ---
    I bet even the Fourth Hokage couldn't.
[18:26] ---
    But he...
[18:29] ---
    Just what I'd expect
[18:31] ---
    from the Ninja with
    the most unpredictability, Naruto.
[18:34] ---
    I'm not sure how to say it...
[18:36] ---
    I've really started to take a liking to you!
[18:41] ---
    YIKES!
[18:46] ---
    Don't say gross stuff
    out of the blue like that, you jerk!
[18:49] ---
    The Jutsu I went to the trouble of creating
[18:50] ---
    got messed up because
    you freaked me out!
[18:52] ---
    Uhh, I didn't mean it like that...
[18:53] ---
    Whoa, stay back!
[18:55] ---
    I don't know quite how to say it...
[18:57] ---
    Well...
[18:58] ---
    No!
[19:00] ---
    For crying out loud...
[19:02] ---
    What're those two doing...?
[19:05] ---
    I have a message for you.
[19:07] ---
    Just a minute...
[19:12] ---
    What's going on?
[19:20] ---
    Kakashi Senpai!
[19:21] ---
    We must stop the training for now
    and head back to the village!
[19:24] ---
    What?!
[19:26] ---
    What the heck is going on?!
[19:41] ---
    Asuma Sarutobi...
[20:02] ---
    ...is dead.
[21:38] ---
    You okay, Konohamaru...?
[21:42] ---
    Uncle Asuma... Why...?!
[21:45] ---
    Asuma...
[21:47] ---
    Choji, do you know where Shikamaru is?
[21:49] ---
    It looks like he isn't here yet...
[21:51] ---
    That's strange.
[21:52] ---
    And here his mom said he went out
[21:54] ---
    after stopping by the house...
[21:57] ---
    Where the heck did he go
    at an important time like this...?!
[22:02] ---
    Next time: "Team 10"
