[00:08] ---
    Here we are, here we are,
    here we are!
[00:09] ---
    “The Golden Time”!
[00:12] ---
    Starting tonight, “NARUTO” will be airing
    every Wednesday, from 7:27 at night!
[00:19] ---
    – Leader… Leader…
    – For those who always watch "Naruto,"
[00:21] ---
    and also for those who are watching
    for the first time, please enjoy!
[00:26] ---
    Now, the new opening theme song,
[00:29] ---
    ”HARUKA KANATA (Far Beyond)”
    is about to start!
[00:31] ---
    Listen here! Leader!
[00:32] ---
    W-What is it Konohamaru?
    I was just getting into it…
[00:39] ---
    It’s only 7 o’clock.
[00:41] ---
    What?
[00:41] ---
    You’re 27 minutes early.
[00:44] ---
    This is actually the time slot for
    “The Prince of Tennis.”
[00:47] ---
    W-What?!
[00:48] ---
    W-W-What are we going to do?
[00:50] ---
    – I already did the greeting!
    – It’s not my problem…
[00:53] ---
    I don’t care any more!
     I’m going to start “NARUTO”!
[01:00] ---
    Hey, Sakura, Sasuke.
[01:02] ---
    Naruto went ahead and
    started the program.
[01:05] ---
    Are you ready?
[01:06] ---
    No, no! I’m still in the middle
    of my facial!
[01:10] ---
    What about the VTR for the main show?
[01:12] ---
    It hasn’t arrived here.
[01:14] ---
    I guess it can’t be helped.
[01:15] ---
    I’ll have to do some dancing…
[01:17] ---
    Nah! I mean I’m going to
    get the VTR.
[01:21] ---
    In the meantime,
    you guys will have to fill up the time.
[01:23] ---
    What?!
[01:23] ---
    I’m depending on you.
    This is your mission.
[01:26] ---
    Huh, a mission… all right!
[01:30] ---
    All right, we’ll do it!
[01:33] ---
    Hey, Naruto!
[01:34] ---
    This is all your fault for being so careless!
    You have to learn your lesson!
[01:41] ---
    Ouchh….
[01:43] ---
    Go Go!
[01:51] ---
    Press down hard on the gas
[01:54] ---
    That’s right, there’s no compromise
[01:58] ---
    We'll slip through the night
[02:02] ---
    At the final moment push hard
[02:05] ---
    That's right, all the way to zero,
[02:09] ---
    Until we wipe away the days
[02:14] ---
    Gently open your heart
[02:20] ---
    If you pull it close to you
[02:25] ---
    It will reach you, without a doubt
[02:28] ---
    It will come, closer
[02:30] ---
    Now
[02:40] ---
    We’re speeding through life,
    squeezing it for all of its worth
[02:46] ---
    Our feet are tied
[02:47] ---
    But we still keep going farther
[02:51] ---
    Even if I take it back, and grasp it
[02:57] ---
    If you’re not the one
[02:58] ---
    There will be no meaning
[02:59] ---
    And so we’ll go far off into the distance.
[03:30] ---
    W-What?
    Where is this place?!
[03:32] ---
    Restricted Area
    Do Not Enter
[03:41] ---
    This is the site of the second exam,
    the 44th Training Field...
[03:48] ---
    Also known as... the Forest of Death.
[03:54] ---
    Forest of... Death?
[04:02] ---
    Huh?
[04:06] ---
    Is that supposed to be... a rock?
[04:09] ---
    Moreover, on top of the grass?
[04:36] ---
    Hey, Konohamaru!
    What is it that you want?!
[04:41] ---
    Just what I expect from the man I respect!
[04:44] ---
    Good job on figuring it out!
[04:56] ---
    Hey! Too much gunpowder used!
[05:04] ---
    With an adult sexiness!
[05:06] ---
    I’m Moegi of the senior class
    at Kunoichi preschool!
[05:09] ---
    I love factoring! Udon!
[05:12] ---
    The most brilliant Ninja in the village!
    Konohamaru!
[05:16] ---
    The three of us together are
    the Konohamaru Gang!
[05:19] ---
    Here we are!
[05:21] ---
    What’s going on you guys?
[05:24] ---
    Hey, I’m about to take the
    second exam for the Chunin Exam.
[05:29] ---
    I have no time to be playing
    around with you guys!
[05:33] ---
    We didn’t come to play around!
[05:36] ---
    That’s right!
    We came here for an interview!
[05:39] ---
    That’s right…
[05:42] ---
    Interview?
[05:42] ---
    Yeah, we were put in charge to write
    the feature article for the “Chunin Exam,”
[05:47] ---
    for the academy’s class newspaper.
[05:51] ---
    So that’s why we came to
    interview you, leader…
[05:55] ---
    Please cooperate with us.
[05:58] ---
    Please.
[06:00] ---
    But...
[06:02] ---
    Hey, over there!
[06:04] ---
    What are you doing?!
[06:07] ---
    Konohamaru here is asking about
    an interview for the class newspaper…
[06:12] ---
    Oh, I forgot that Lord Hokage was
    mentioning something like that.
[06:18] ---
    Hey, hey…
[06:20] ---
    All right, take a 10-minute break
    starting now!
[06:24] ---
    For those who will be interviewed,
    resign yourselves and be courteous.
[06:29] ---
    Hey, hey… What’s this all about?
[06:31] ---
    Big brother Naruto!
    I’m depending on you.
[06:34] ---
    All right!
[06:35] ---
    In that case, I'll just show you
    how attractive I am!
[06:40] ---
    Special Report:
    Live from the Forest of Death!
[06:46] ---
    Chapter of Character Introduction
[06:54] ---
    Please introduce yourself.
[06:57] ---
    Okay!
[07:00] ---
    My name is Naruto Uzumaki!
[07:03] ---
    A Ninja from Village Hidden
    in the Leaves!
[07:05] ---
    My hobby is to play pranks,
    and I love ramen noodles,
[07:08] ---
    I’ve just become a Genin but…
[07:10] ---
    My dream is big, to become a Hokage!
[07:14] ---
    And I’m going to surpass all
    the Hokage from the past,
[07:17] ---
    and make everybody in the town
    acknowledge my existence.
[07:22] ---
    I’ve been called a failure and such,
    but I graduated splendidly and,
[07:29] ---
    as a member of Group Seven
    led by Kakashi Sensei,
[07:32] ---
    I am dealing with
    difficult missions every day!
[07:36] ---
    Distance from the target?
[07:39] ---
    5 meters.
[07:40] ---
    I’m ready anytime.
[07:43] ---
    In Group Seven, there is also
    Sasuke and Sakura.
[07:47] ---
    Since I’m really the only one that shows
    great success,
[07:49] ---
    you don’t worry about the other two.
[07:51] ---
    I got you!
[07:52] ---
    Don’t say such things.
    lntroduce them properly!
[07:55] ---
    Is the target correct?
[07:56] ---
    I know, I know.
[07:58] ---
    The target confirmed.
[08:01] ---
    For example, this guy’s name is
    Sasuke Uchiha
[08:04] ---
    and he’s a pretentious guy.
[08:06] ---
    I heard that he’s one of the last
    remaining of the famous Uchiha clan,
[08:10] ---
    but he really is a pitiful guy, like this…
[08:20] ---
    Oh, this was when I transform but...
[08:23] ---
    as long as you understand the greatness
    of my Ninja skills that’s all that matters.
[08:30] ---
    Oh, and this is Sakura Haruno
    who is in love with me.
[08:35] ---
    You know, the more she denies it,
    the more I’m convinced it’s true.
[08:37] ---
    She hardly tells me how
    she really feels about me but,
[08:39] ---
    her shyness makes her even cuter!
[08:44] ---
    Is that true?
[08:46] ---
    It really is true, true.
[08:49] ---
    Who’s in love with Naruto?!
    Cha!
[08:54] ---
    It was a lie after all!
[08:58] ---
    I’m sorry…
[08:59] ---
    Well, putting that aside,
    three of us formed a team
[09:03] ---
    and got through a bunch
    of dangerous missions together.
[09:12] ---
    Hey you…
[09:13] ---
    What?
[09:14] ---
    Oh, Missus!
[09:16] ---
    I’ve gotten rid of all the weeds!
[09:19] ---
    What? What's wrong?
[09:21] ---
    Those…those aren’t weeds…
[09:25] ---
    Huh?
[09:26] ---
    Those are herbs I grew in my garden!
[09:31] ---
    Ouch, ouch, ouch!
[09:40] ---
    Somebody! Help…!
[09:43] ---
    No!
[09:44] ---
    Free Fall!
[09:51] ---
    You idiot.
[09:53] ---
    Trap Field
    Do Not Enter
     Don't go over there!
[09:58] ---
    Hey! Please stop!
[10:03] ---
    That fool…
[10:04] ---
    Geez... All because he
    stubbornly chose that big dog.
[10:08] ---
    This is a dangerous mission?
[10:11] ---
    It only looks like you're being clumsy, Naruto.
[10:15] ---
    Yikes !
[10:21] ---
    Well, there were times like that too.
[10:26] ---
    Do it over.
[10:29] ---
    Transform!
[10:33] ---
    Oh, this was when I defeated
    the Old Man Hokage.
[10:40] ---
    This isn’t going to make a good article.
[10:43] ---
    Fine, then you show me how to do it.
[10:46] ---
    Fine! My name is Konohamaru…
[10:49] ---
    The grandson of the
    town’s chief Hokage.
[10:52] ---
    Grandfather is the most important figure
    in the Leaf Village
[10:55] ---
    and is the third Hokage.
[11:03] ---
    Those who succeed the Hokage name
    is the top Ninja of the village.
[11:07] ---
    Especially the 4th Hokage is a great hero
    who protected the village
[11:10] ---
    from the demon fox!
[11:12] ---
    Hey, hey, hey wait!
[11:15] ---
    You’re only talking about other people!
[11:20] ---
    I was just about to start on myself!
[11:23] ---
    Besides, Bro, you talk too much
    about yourself!
[11:25] ---
    Of course, I am the star of the article,
    other people don’t matter!
[11:31] ---
    You’re right, Naruto…
[11:33] ---
    Of course, you’re going to forget
    about me
[11:35] ---
    when you graduate from the academy.
[11:38] ---
    But you can introduce me for a bit…
[11:42] ---
    Oh, yes, yes…
[11:44] ---
    He is the first person in the town
    who acknowledged me, Iruka Sensei…
[11:49] ---
    He’s a really nice person,
[11:51] ---
    he always treats me to
    ramen noodles at Ichiraku.
[11:54] ---
    Am I just a nice person because
    I treat you to ramen noodles?
[11:57] ---
    Oh no…well…that’s…
[12:00] ---
    Don’t laugh it off!
[12:02] ---
    Big brother, next up,
    I’m depending on you!
[12:05] ---
    Oh, you’re right!
[12:07] ---
    Then, I guess I could talk
    about Sasuke’s stories of failures…
[12:11] ---
    I’ve already heard that one.
    Get more serious!
[12:16] ---
    That Naruto…!
[12:18] ---
    I bet he's just making up
    stuff as he pleases…
[12:22] ---
    Humph!
[12:23] ---
    Who cares…
[12:28] ---
    This is good-looking Kakashi.
[12:30] ---
    How is the situation over there?
[12:31] ---
    This is cute Sakura.
[12:33] ---
    Naruto is somehow managing
    to fill up the time.
[12:36] ---
    More importantly, how is it over there?
[12:38] ---
    Are we going to make it in time?
[12:39] ---
    We’ll be able to deliver by the
    end of the commercial break, I think.
[12:42] ---
    Oh and don’t forget to tell
    the viewers about the present.
[12:48] ---
    Roger that.
[12:51] ---
    Kakashi Sensei…
    Kakashi Sensei, please respond.
[12:57] ---
    I wonder what happened?
[12:59] ---
    He said that he’d be back by
    the time the commercial ended.
[13:02] ---
    It can’t be helped.
    Sakura, you have to continue.
[13:05] ---
    What, me?!
[13:07] ---
    Sakura do your best!
[13:09] ---
    Why are you there?!
[13:12] ---
    Well, it can’t be helped,
    I guess I’ll have to do it.
[13:17] ---
    Chapter of Ninja Art
[13:24] ---
    Well, now we’ll have Sakura Haruno,
[13:26] ---
    who is my senior as a Kunoichi,
    teach us about Ninja Art.
[13:31] ---
    Yes, I am the beautiful Kunoichi,
    Sakura Haruno.
[13:35] ---
    Beautiful?
[13:36] ---
    What, you have any complaints?
[13:38] ---
    Oh, no…
[13:40] ---
    Transform!
[13:41] ---
    Well first, Naruto’s Ninjutsu...
[13:46] ---
    Sexy Jutsu,
[13:51] ---
    Shadow Clone Jutsu!
[13:54] ---
    Shadow Clone Jutsu.
[13:59] ---
    Transform!
[14:01] ---
    - Transform!
    - Transform!
[14:02] ---
    - Transform!
    - Transform!
[14:12] ---
    Harem Jutsu…
[14:16] ---
    I call it, “Harem Jutsu”!
[14:19] ---
    And something like this.
[14:20] ---
    Hey!
[14:22] ---
    It’s his fault that he’s late!
[14:34] ---
    Dropping the blackboard eraser…
[14:37] ---
    Next is the number one rookie, Sasuke,
[14:40] ---
    who graduated as
    the top student at the academy.
[15:10] ---
    You won’t get me by attacking
    straight on.
[15:13] ---
    The most popular one in class, he can
    also fight Kakashi Sensei as an equal.
[15:19] ---
    Sasuke is awesome!
[15:31] ---
    Your Sasuke introduction
    is taking too long.
[15:34] ---
    Naruto, you're so noisy.
[15:36] ---
    Stay quiet.
[15:38] ---
    Horse!
[15:39] ---
    Tiger!
[15:41] ---
    Fire Style: Fire Ball Jutsu!
[15:44] ---
    What?!
[15:45] ---
    That’s not a Jutsu Genin can use…
[15:48] ---
    He couldn’t have enough Chakra!
[16:04] ---
    Demon Wind Shuriken
    Windmill of Shadows.
[16:09] ---
    Shuriken won’t work on me.
[16:20] ---
    I’ll do it.
[16:23] ---
    C-Could that be…?
[16:26] ---
    Sharingan!
[16:27] ---
    Is that, the Sharingan…?
[16:35] ---
    If this is the same Kekkei Genkai
    as Kakashi Sensei’s…
[16:39] ---
    he can read Bushy-Brow’s Jutsu!
[16:42] ---
    Genjutsu or Ninjutsu…
    it’s some kind of magic either way.
[16:47] ---
    I’ll reveal that!
[17:00] ---
    Although you have seen Sasuke
    using powerful Jutsu like
[17:04] ---
    Fire Style: Fire Ball Jutsu,
    Demon Wind Shuriken,
[17:07] ---
    Windmill Shadow, and Sharingan,
[17:11] ---
    the greatest of all is...
[17:20] ---
    the sharp look of his eyes!
[17:23] ---
    Any girl who has been stared
    at with those eyes,
[17:25] ---
    will fall in love with him!
[17:28] ---
    Sasuke! Look this way!
[17:33] ---
    You’re... annoying.
[17:36] ---
    Well, that cold behavior is also
    another attractive quality of Sasuke…
[17:44] ---
    Next is our teacher,
    Kakashi Hatake Sensei,
[17:49] ---
    also known as
    the Copy Ninja Kakashi.
[17:52] ---
    He uses the Sharingan in his eye
    to assess the enemy’s technique
[17:56] ---
    and copy over
    a thousand Jutsu techniques.
[18:07] ---
    But he’s always late to meet people,
    and whenever he has any time
[18:11] ---
    he always reads this questionable book
    called Make-Out Paradise,
[18:14] ---
    and he always looks like he
    doesn’t really care about things…
[18:16] ---
    Leaf Village Secret Finger Jutsu:
[18:22] ---
    A Thousand Years of Death!
[18:27] ---
    And the biggest mystery of all
    is his face hidden under that mask!
[18:32] ---
    I wonder what he really looks like…
[18:42] ---
    Ninja Art, Summoning,
    Earth Style: Fanged Pursuit Jutsu!
[19:02] ---
    If you can’t use your eyes or ears,
    simply use your nose.
[19:07] ---
    That’s what happens when
    you’re closing your eyes in the midst of fog.
[19:11] ---
    This is the Summoning Jutsu
    specialized for pursuit.
[19:16] ---
    On top of all that, why does he
    have the Sharingan in his left eye
[19:20] ---
    that is only passed on in the Uchiha clan?
[19:23] ---
    One mystery after another when
    it comes to this person,
[19:25] ---
    so many things that I don’t understand…
[19:27] ---
    I should ask him next time
    I have the chance.
[19:34] ---
    Lightning Blade!
[19:37] ---
    What the…?!
[19:38] ---
    His hand is…
    visibly overflowing with Chakra!
[19:44] ---
    You are too dangerous.
[19:49] ---
    Water Prison Jutsu.
[19:51] ---
    Oh no!
[19:55] ---
    Secret Jutsu.
[20:06] ---
    Crystal Ice Mirrors!
[20:08] ---
    Next up are the Ninjutsu of
    the other Ninjas besides us.
[20:11] ---
    There’s such a diverse collection of
    Ninjutsu that I have no time to explain all…
[20:18] ---
    Chapter of Rivals
[20:24] ---
    Please, Sasuke,
    whom I feel is like my future self,
[20:27] ---
    take care of the next part.
[20:31] ---
    Sure. After all, I have be the one
    to do something about it.
[20:35] ---
    I knew that from the beginning.
[20:40] ---
    Don’t try so hard to look cool.
[20:43] ---
    Sasuke, the snob.
[20:45] ---
    Don’t interfere.
[20:47] ---
    Stay out of it, loser.
[20:49] ---
    Annoying.
[20:50] ---
    Shut up!
[20:52] ---
    I hate the fact that only you stand out.
[20:56] ---
    Nobody strong around you
    shows any interest in you.
[21:02] ---
    What the…?!
[21:04] ---
    Just watch this.
[21:06] ---
    Hey!
[21:07] ---
    You there…
    What’s your name?
[21:11] ---
    I’m Gaara of the desert.
    I have an interest in you as well…
[21:17] ---
    What’s your name?
[21:18] ---
    Sasuke Uchiha.
[21:21] ---
    Hey, you there.
    ldentify yourself.
[21:26] ---
    Dang it!
    Again? It's always about Sasuke!
[21:29] ---
    When asking someone his name,
    give your own name first.
[21:35] ---
    You, with the unpleasant look.
[21:37] ---
    Wait a minute!
[21:44] ---
    Why don’t you fight with me here now?
[21:47] ---
    I AM going to take out the Bushy-Brow.
    Believe it!
[21:50] ---
    The one I want to fight isn’t you…
    lt’s Uchiha.
[21:55] ---
    Everybody says Sasuke, Sasuke!
    lt's annoying!
[21:57] ---
    It’s true!
[21:58] ---
    Nobody thinks that you’re
    the main character leader!
[22:01] ---
    That’s not true, they’re all just blind!
[22:05] ---
    Huh… As usual you’re just about
    the talk and not the walk.
[22:09] ---
    That’s not true!
[22:11] ---
    Leaf Whirlwind!
[22:14] ---
    See, you are just about the talk.
[22:17] ---
    Uhh… even Sakura is picking on me.
[22:20] ---
    The students who gathered for
    this Chunin Exam are all skilled,
[22:24] ---
    and are the cream of the crop…
[22:28] ---
    Shikamaru Nara, Choji Akimichi,
    lno Yamanaka,
[22:34] ---
    Hinata Hyuga, Kiba Inuzuka & Akamaru,
    and Shino Aburame…
[22:40] ---
    You won’t never be able to win
    with the way you have been fighting.
[22:44] ---
    You must understand that, right?
[22:46] ---
    Y-Yeah! Of course!
[22:49] ---
    You, too. Be careful not to let
    your guard down
[22:51] ---
    so you won’t be defeated
    by some lame guy!
[22:53] ---
    Huh! Of course!
[23:00] ---
    That’s right…
[23:01] ---
    We passed the first stage
    of the Chunin Exam and
[23:05] ---
    are heading to the location
    of the second stage…
[23:08] ---
    No matter what kind of adversity
    may lie ahead,
[23:11] ---
    we will not be afraid!
[23:14] ---
    And we will pass the exam
    to become a Chunin!
[23:19] ---
    Because we... we...
[23:23] ---
    have the greatest teamwork
    that was formed by a strong bond!
[23:27] ---
    Okay! Let's go!
[23:37] ---
    Thank you so much for cooperating
    with the interview!
[23:41] ---
    – Thank you… – Leader!
[23:43] ---
    Do your best!
[23:45] ---
    Yeah leave it to me!
[23:47] ---
    – Bye! – See you!
[23:49] ---
    – Do your best!
    – Good luck!
[23:54] ---
    Oh guys… I’m sorry I’m late.
[23:57] ---
    A cute girl started talking to
    me on the way, and I danced for a bit.
[24:00] ---
    And that’s a lie!
[24:03] ---
    Well, don’t say that…
[24:05] ---
    I did bring the VTR like I said.
[24:08] ---
    You have to praise me.
[24:09] ---
    Yes, Kakashi Sensei you’re great!
[24:10] ---
    Now we can see the rest of the show!
[24:12] ---
    Everybody look forward to it!
[24:14] ---
    Oh, before that the commercial break…
[24:20] ---
    Hey, can you hear it?
[24:25] ---
    The clear, blue sky goes on and on
[24:34] ---
    The ocean spans limitlessly
[24:43] ---
    Please keep that smile on your face forever
[24:52] ---
    Or else I’ll cry
[24:58] ---
    You won't have to search around you
[25:01] ---
    It’s all ok now.
[25:06] ---
    Everyone is inside
    this hand
[25:14] ---
    when you want to cry, and you want to run away
[25:19] ---
    When you forget what happiness is
[25:24] ---
    Just sing.
[25:28] ---
    Light is born, and darkness was born
[25:33] ---
    The two are one
[25:35] ---
    Harmonia, feel the telepathy
[25:42] ---
    Hey, can you hear it?
[25:53] ---
    The 44th Training Field,
    also known as the Forest of Death.
[25:56] ---
    From here on it’s a serious battle
    between the Ninjas,
[25:59] ---
    anything could happen!
[26:01] ---
    It’s going down in earnest now!
[26:04] ---
    This is getting interesting!
[26:07] ---
    A life-risking survival game in the forest!
[26:09] ---
    I will survive without fail!
[26:11] ---
    Next time: “The Chunin Exam Stage 2:
    The Forest of Death!”
[26:15] ---
    As for me, I’m going to kick butt again!

[00:06] ---
    Press down hard on the gas
[00:09] ---
    That’s right, there’s no compromise
[00:13] ---
    We'll slip through the night
[00:17] ---
    At the final moment push hard
[00:20] ---
    That's right, all the way to zero,
[00:24] ---
    Until we wipe away the days
[00:29] ---
    Gently open your heart
[00:35] ---
    If you pull it close to you
[00:40] ---
    It will reach you, without a doubt
[00:43] ---
    It will come, closer
[00:44] ---
    Now
[00:55] ---
    We’re speeding through life,
    squeezing it for all of its worth
[01:01] ---
    Our feet are tied
[01:02] ---
    But we still keep going farther
[01:06] ---
    Even if I take it back, and grasp it
[01:11] ---
    If you’re not the one
[01:13] ---
    There will be no meaning
[01:14] ---
    And so we’ll go far off into the distance.
[01:47] ---
    Ugh... what are you here for now?
[01:50] ---
    It’s our reunion after so long,
    and you’re awfully cold.
[01:56] ---
    Don’t tell me that you came to
    assassinate Lord Hokage?
[02:00] ---
    No, no…
[02:02] ---
    I don’t have enough
    subordinates for that yet...
[02:04] ---
    I’ve heard of the excellence ones
    of this village
[02:07] ---
    and thought I’d put dibs on them.
[02:14] ---
    A little while ago, I gave that
    same Curse Mark as a present.
[02:21] ---
    There’s a kid that I want.
[02:24] ---
    Selfish as always.
[02:26] ---
    That kid will die.
[02:28] ---
    Certainly…
[02:29] ---
    The odds are 1 in 10
    that he’ll survive,
[02:33] ---
    but he may survive just like you did.
[02:37] ---
    This kid, you really like him, huh?
[02:41] ---
    Are you jealous?
[02:43] ---
    Are you still holding a grudge that
    I used you and threw you away?
[02:52] ---
    Unlike you, that kid will excel...
[02:56] ---
    For one thing, he inherited
    the Uchiha ability.
[03:01] ---
    He has beautiful features
[03:03] ---
    and is a vessel who
    can become my heir.
[03:06] ---
    If that kid lived,
    it makes things interesting.
[03:11] ---
    Be sure not to cancel this test.
[03:16] ---
    Three from my village are also
    under your care…
[03:20] ---
    Make me enjoy it.
[03:25] ---
    If something happens
    to deprive me of my fun,
[03:30] ---
    consider it the end of Leaf Village.
[03:51] ---
    We’ve secured food and water
    after spending half a day.
[03:55] ---
    And now most teams have halted activity.
[03:59] ---
    As we planned,
    this is the time that we attack.
[04:02] ---
    We'll split up into three
    and go scouting.
[04:05] ---
    However, whether we find
    other teams or not,
[04:09] ---
    we return to this place.
[04:12] ---
    Got it?
[04:14] ---
    Okay.
[04:15] ---
    Roger.
[04:16] ---
    Okay. Scatter!
[04:24] ---
    Bushy-Brow’s Pledge:
    Undying Love and Protection!
[05:23] ---
    I can’t fall asleep...
[05:28] ---
    I need to protect these two.
[05:42] ---
    I slept great!
[05:43] ---
    Naruto!
[05:47] ---
    Sasuke!
[05:48] ---
    Did you take care of us?
[05:51] ---
    Thank you, Sakura!
[05:53] ---
    We’re totally better because of you!
[05:57] ---
    That’s good...
[06:03] ---
    A prey must always stay tense
    and flee desperately
[06:10] ---
    in front of the predator!
[06:23] ---
    My voice is gone!
[06:37] ---
    It was just a dream...
[06:44] ---
    Is it daybreak already?!
[06:48] ---
    No, no way!
[07:04] ---
    A squirrel?
[07:05] ---
    Don’t surprise me like that!
[07:09] ---
    Oh!
[07:13] ---
    That was too close.
[07:16] ---
    Do you think she noticed?
[07:17] ---
    The Paper Bomb we put on the squirrel...
[07:20] ---
    No, that’s not it.
[07:22] ---
    Huh? Then what? What was it?
[07:26] ---
    We’ll probably find out if we go closer.
[07:30] ---
    So... we should get going now.
[07:52] ---
    If I can catch all twenty of these leaves
    before they hit the ground
[07:56] ---
    Sakura will start to like me.
[08:00] ---
    If... if I can’t catch
    even one of the leaves...!
[08:03] ---
    It’ll be an unanswered love forever.
    Or rather…
[08:07] ---
    You’re too Bushy!
[08:09] ---
    That’s what she’ll say.
[08:13] ---
    One, two, three, four...
    five, six, seven, eight...
[08:15] ---
    nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen,
     fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen,
[08:18] ---
    nine--! Ugh, nineteen...
[08:23] ---
    One more!
[08:27] ---
    That’s…!
[08:35] ---
    Phew... just in time.
[08:38] ---
    This is called a Paper Bomb
    and it explodes after some time.
[08:43] ---
    Who did such an awful thing?
[08:53] ---
    Stop hiding and come out.
[08:56] ---
    Shoot! We scrambled to hide, you know?!
[08:59] ---
    Man, he’s a damn pain
    and we've been discovered!
[09:03] ---
    Strategy One, “hide and let it pass,”
    was a failure!
[09:07] ---
    So now we carry out Strategy Two!
[09:10] ---
    Huh? Are you serious?
[09:13] ---
    What? You have a problem with that?
[09:16] ---
    There’s no question of success.
[09:18] ---
    Well, I guess it’s all right but...
[09:22] ---
    Wow! To meet last year’s Number One
    rookie, Neji Hyuga, in a place like this!
[09:28] ---
    C-Can I have your autograph?
[09:31] ---
    So it’s just you guys?
[09:33] ---
    Take that! Strategy Two, “head over heals
    infatuation with my sex appeal”!
[09:38] ---
    I’d been wanting to meet you
    for some time, you know?
[09:44] ---
    Get lost!
[09:48] ---
    Why? Why doesn’t my sexiness work?!
[09:51] ---
    Shoot, it ticks me off, darn!
[09:57] ---
    Did you just raise your fists to me,
    and does that mean you want to fight?
[10:02] ---
    N-No... Of course not.
[10:07] ---
    Then get lost.
[10:09] ---
    Stealing a scroll from cowardly wimps
     like you
[10:12] ---
    would only make me
    the laughing stock of the village.
[10:15] ---
    Y-Yes!
[10:17] ---
    Huh... Really just like cockroaches.
[10:26] ---
    Just as I thought.
[10:28] ---
    A fellow like that wouldn’t take
    a scroll away from wimps like us
[10:32] ---
    unless we were to turn on him.
[10:35] ---
    All right! Let’s go find some wimps!
[10:39] ---
    Like I’ve been saying
    there’s no one wimpier than us...
[10:55] ---
    So a no-sleep lookout?
[10:58] ---
    But it’s not necessary anymore.
[11:01] ---
    Wake Sasuke up.
    We want to battle with him.
[11:07] ---
    Y-You bastards…
[11:12] ---
    What’re you saying?
[11:13] ---
    What is it you’re after?
[11:15] ---
    I know the one called Orochimaru
    is calling the shots from the shadows!
[11:18] ---
    Huh?!
[11:20] ---
    What’s that strange bruise on
    the back of Sasuke’s neck?
[11:23] ---
    You did this to Sasuke.
[11:25] ---
    How can you say you want to fight him?!
[11:28] ---
    I wonder…what he has on his mind?
[11:35] ---
    However, I can’t stay quiet
    after hearing that.
[11:38] ---
    I will kill this girl,
    I’ll also kill this Sasuke character.
[11:47] ---
    Wait, Zaku.
[11:49] ---
    Huh? What is it?
[11:54] ---
    It’s so cliché.
[11:56] ---
    It’s the color of dirt
     that’s just been dug up.
[11:59] ---
    This grass, it doesn’t grow in
    a place like this, does it?
[12:03] ---
    Darn!
[12:04] ---
    You know, with a trap...
[12:06] ---
    there’s no point unless you
    make it so it’s not discovered.
[12:12] ---
    Huh, how ridiculous!
[12:14] ---
    So that Kunai knife was so the squirrel
    wouldn’t be caught in the trap ?
[12:19] ---
    We kill her now!
[12:25] ---
    A log?!
[12:26] ---
    A trap above too? Watch out!
[12:29] ---
    Just kidding.
[12:33] ---
    What?!
[12:34] ---
    Clearly you have no talent.
[12:37] ---
    Someone like you needs to
    make more of an effort or else!
[12:42] ---
    Leaf Hurricanes!
[12:50] ---
    What?! This guy...
[12:53] ---
    Then you also should... make an effort!
[12:57] ---
    Who are you?
[12:58] ---
    I’m the beautiful blue beast
    of Leaf Village, Rock Lee!
[13:17] ---
    Why are you here?
[13:19] ---
    I will always appear...
[13:21] ---
    whenever you’re in trouble!
[13:27] ---
    Or should I say...
[13:28] ---
    It was really because of you,
    now run along.
[13:38] ---
    But right now, I’m also
    your enemy!
[13:42] ---
    I did say this once before, didn’t I?
[13:47] ---
    That I’ll protect you until I die.
[13:52] ---
    Please go out with me!
[13:54] ---
    I’ll protect you until I die!
[13:58] ---
    Oh...
[14:00] ---
    T-Thanks.
[14:02] ---
    Yes!
[14:03] ---
    Perfect! I did it!
    Gu Sensei, that was perfect!
[14:10] ---
    I guess it can’t be helped...
[14:12] ---
    Zaku. I’ll give you Sasuke.
[14:17] ---
    I will kill them!
[14:20] ---
    As far as I can tell,
     Sakura is in no condition to fight.
[14:24] ---
    That Bushy-Brow guy is
     pretty proficient with Taijutsu...
[14:28] ---
    Looks like I can have some fun!
[14:40] ---
    There is a trick to your attack, isn’t there?
[14:44] ---
    I won’t just simply avoid it.
[14:47] ---
    You showed me your Jutsu before.
[14:53] ---
    This guy…he’s strong.
[14:55] ---
    Having said that,
[14:57] ---
    the odds aren’t good since
    it’s one versus three.
[14:59] ---
    I’m gonna have to take a chance.
[15:04] ---
    One person at a time...
[15:05] ---
    I’ll give it my all and take each down!
[15:17] ---
    There’s no one at all that seems wimpy!
[15:21] ---
    Well, the only team that’s weaker
    than us is the Naruto team.
[15:26] ---
    Idiot! You know what you’re saying?
[15:28] ---
    What?!
[15:29] ---
    No question Naruto and Sakura are lame!
[15:32] ---
    But that team has
    the super genius Sasuke!
[15:35] ---
    Hah! I wonder...
[15:37] ---
    In actual battle that genius
    might easily be beaten.
[15:41] ---
    What?!
[15:44] ---
    All right, all right,
    I apologize for irritating you.
[15:48] ---
    What a pain...
[15:51] ---
    I say one negative thing about
    Sasuke and I get the evil eye, every time…
[15:56] ---
    There’s no way Sasuke
    could be taken down!
[16:00] ---
    Sakura’s a different matter though!
[16:06] ---
    Huh?!
[16:09] ---
    Hey! Sasuke has collapsed...
[16:11] ---
    Huh?!
[16:12] ---
    ...and Sakura is fighting.
[16:14] ---
    What did you say?
[16:21] ---
    Hey!
[16:24] ---
    He’s late.
[16:26] ---
    That Lee...
[16:28] ---
    Something’s not right.
[16:30] ---
    He’s always precise about time.
[16:33] ---
    Perhaps he ran into the enemy...
[16:37] ---
    Could it be...?
[16:39] ---
    Huh, that wouldn’t have happened.
[16:42] ---
    In any case, let’s find Lee!
[16:45] ---
    Right!
[16:53] ---
    Yes! I’ve finally mastered it!
    Yes! Yes!
[16:57] ---
    My friends, there’s no reason
    to give up on your youth!
[17:09] ---
    This Jutsu...
[17:10] ---
    In the end, only Lee
     could make it his own.
[17:13] ---
    Yahoo!
[17:14] ---
    – Hey Lee...
    – I did it! I will do it!
[17:17] ---
    – Lee! – When I try! I try!
[17:19] ---
    Hey, Lee!
[17:22] ---
    Hey!
[17:28] ---
    Listen to this passionate message
    from your teacher!
[17:31] ---
    Oh... what is it?!
[17:33] ---
    Please tell me using hip words.
[17:38] ---
    This Jutsu, the “Lotus”...
[17:40] ---
    it will be dealt with henceforth
    as a forbidden Jutsu.
[17:43] ---
    – What?! – Huh?!
[17:45] ---
    W-What do you mean?
[17:48] ---
    This Jutsu poses a great burden
    on the cells of the muscles,
[17:52] ---
    it’s a kind of “Self-sacrificing Technique.”
[17:56] ---
    Humans normally utilize,
    at most, 20 percent...
[18:00] ---
    of the “power” that the muscles have.
[18:02] ---
    Do you understand?
    Only 20 percent!
[18:05] ---
    And if nearly 100 percent
    of the “power” is used
[18:08] ---
    the muscles themselves will disintegrate.
[18:10] ---
    So, the brain usually controls the “power.”
[18:15] ---
    However, this Jutsu forces the
    brain’s limiter to go off by using Chakra,
[18:21] ---
    allowing high speed continuous Taijutsu...
[18:25] ---
    In other words, this is a dangerous Jutsu
    which relies on a secret technique
[18:28] ---
    that brings forth “power” almost
     to the limit of one’s body.
[18:34] ---
    So the only time it is all right
    to use this Jutsu
[18:36] ---
    is when a certain condition is met...
[18:40] ---
    So... when is that?
[18:48] ---
    Take this to heart...
[18:53] ---
    The condition is
[19:00] ---
    Guy Sensei...
[19:01] ---
    I will utilize that Jutsu without reserve.
[19:05] ---
    Because this is the time you said...
[19:12] ---
    "When protecting a previous person!"
[19:16] ---
    He disappeared?!
[19:31] ---
    Oh, oh no!
[19:32] ---
    There's no way he can break his fall!
[19:35] ---
    Take this!
[19:37] ---
    Primary Lotus!
[19:47] ---
    This feeling...
[19:51] ---
    Well well...
[19:55] ---
    Just in time.
[20:06] ---
    T-That's impossible!
[20:08] ---
    That is a frightening Jutsu...
[20:10] ---
    It did this much even though
    I fell on the spongy dirt.
[20:18] ---
    It's now my turn.
[20:22] ---
    Oh no!
[20:23] ---
    With what I just did...
[20:30] ---
    Lee!
[20:37] ---
    Your Jutsu is indeed fast.
[20:42] ---
    But our Jutsu exceeds that
[20:45] ---
    and is the speed of sound!
[20:51] ---
    I'll show you there are walls
[20:56] ---
    which effort alone can never break through.
[21:18] ---
    Hey, can you hear it?
[21:23] ---
    The clear, blue sky goes on and on
[21:32] ---
    The ocean spans limitlessly
[21:41] ---
    Please keep that smile on your face forever
[21:50] ---
    Or else I’ll cry
[21:56] ---
    You won't have to search around you
[22:00] ---
    It’s all ok now.
[22:04] ---
    Everyone is inside
    this hand
[22:12] ---
    when you want to cry, and you want to run away
[22:18] ---
    When you forget what happiness is
[22:22] ---
    Just sing.
[22:26] ---
    Light is born, and darkness was born
[22:31] ---
    The two are one
[22:34] ---
    Harmonia, feel the telepathy
[22:40] ---
    Hey, can you hear it?
[22:50] ---
    I'm so frustrated!
[22:52] ---
    I'm just pulling feet again.
[22:54] ---
    I'm always just being protected.
[22:56] ---
    I always just watch them from behind.
[22:59] ---
    This time, I need to protect everyone!
[23:02] ---
    Naruto, Sasuke, Lee!
[23:04] ---
    I want to be like you too!
[23:08] ---

[00:06] ---
    Press down hard on the gas
[00:09] ---
    That’s right, there’s no compromise
[00:13] ---
    We'll slip through the night
[00:17] ---
    At the final moment push hard
[00:20] ---
    That's right, all the way to zero,
[00:24] ---
    Until we wipe away the days
[00:29] ---
    Gently open your heart
[00:35] ---
    If you pull it close to you
[00:40] ---
    It will reach you, without a doubt
[00:43] ---
    It will come, closer
[00:44] ---
    Now
[00:55] ---
    We’re speeding through life,
    squeezing it for all of its worth
[01:01] ---
    Our feet are tied
[01:02] ---
    But we still keep going farther
[01:06] ---
    Even if I take it back, and grasp it
[01:12] ---
    If you’re not the one
[01:13] ---
    There will be no meaning
[01:14] ---
    And so we’ll go far off into the distance.
[01:49] ---
    Akamaru Trembles:
    Gaara’s Cruel Strength!
[02:07] ---
    That guy...?
[02:09] ---
    Everyone hide!
[02:10] ---
    No, lie low quick!
[02:12] ---
    W-Where is that guy?
[02:16] ---
    Naruto...
[02:17] ---
    That fool, he finally woke up.
[02:25] ---
    You are quite one of a kind.
[02:28] ---
    Actually, you are getting on my nerves.
[02:39] ---
    Sakura!
[02:41] ---
    – What? – Y-Y-Your...!
[02:43] ---
    Sakura... your hair!
[02:46] ---
    Oh! This...?
[02:50] ---
    I’m changing my image,
    changing my image!
[02:57] ---
    I like it better long but,
[03:00] ---
    when I move around in
    a forest like this,
[03:02] ---
    it gets in the way if it’s long.
[03:07] ---
    By the way...
[03:08] ---
    why are you guys here?!
[03:12] ---
    Hah... It’s such a pain
    to explain it to you.
[03:17] ---
    Everybody helped out.
[03:19] ---
    Huh?
[03:22] ---
    Sakura’s putting on a show of bravado...
[03:27] ---
    I’ll take care of him from here.
[03:30] ---
    Ah... Okay...
[03:32] ---
    Keep it together! Lee!
[03:38] ---
    Oh? Tenten, why are you here?
[03:42] ---
    I came to help.
[03:45] ---
    Huh...?
[03:46] ---
    Those guys,
    where’s the Sound Village Ninjas?
[03:48] ---
    A kid named Sasuke
    drove them away!
[03:52] ---
    Really…
[03:54] ---
    Why did you hastily decided
    to act on your own?!
[03:57] ---
    Besides, you really got beaten up!
[04:00] ---
    S-Sakura was in danger.
    So as a man, I...
[04:06] ---
    You’re kidding...!
[04:07] ---
    If it were Lee alone,
    he wouldn’t have lost to those guys.
[04:11] ---
    You’re really stupid.
[04:15] ---
    I can’t argue with that.
[04:18] ---
    You, Bushy-Brow!
[04:21] ---
    Naruto!
[04:23] ---
    Don’t say rude things to Lee!
[04:29] ---
    What in the world...
[04:30] ---
    happened while I was asleep?
[04:34] ---
    That Naruto,
    he’s completely out of the loop.
[04:38] ---
    He’s not the type to be
    the protagonist of a story, certainly not.
[04:46] ---
    Lee...
[04:48] ---
    Thank you.
[04:51] ---
    Because of you,
    I was able to wake up.
[04:55] ---
    I feel like I’ve gotten a little stronger!
[05:02] ---
    Sakura...
[05:04] ---
    It looks like my efforts
    weren’t enough!
[05:09] ---
    Sasuke... Just what you’d expect
    from the Uchiha clan.
[05:14] ---
    To chase off the Sound Village Ninjas,
[05:16] ---
    just as I thought,
    you possess amazing strength.
[05:20] ---
    I was beaten to a pulp.
[05:22] ---
    What?! He was beaten to a pulp?!
[05:27] ---
    What’s he talking about?
[05:29] ---
    Were those guys really that strong?
[05:33] ---
    Sakura!
[05:34] ---
    The Lotus of Leaf Village
    blooms twice.
[05:37] ---
    Huh?
[05:38] ---
    When we meet again,
    I will have become a stronger man.
[05:43] ---
    I pledge it.
[05:47] ---
    Okay.
[05:50] ---
    Hey Sakura!
[05:52] ---
    Come here, come here!
[05:54] ---
    Your hair! I’ll fix it for you!
[05:58] ---
    That'd be great.
[06:05] ---
    You are really sneaky.
[06:08] ---
    Hugging him like that,
    you little billboard brow.
[06:11] ---
    It’s called first come-first served,
    Miss Ino-pig.
[06:21] ---
    Sasuke... Uchiha.
[06:29] ---
    At any rate…he’s a strong opponent.
[06:35] ---
    Are you okay, Akamaru?
[06:39] ---
    Is he still shaking?
[06:42] ---
    It’s already been half a day.
[06:45] ---
    Akamaru...
[06:46] ---
    I don’t blame him,
     it’s because he saw that thing...
[06:54] ---
    After all, brains are most important
    in survival!
[06:56] ---
    Right. Akamaru?
[07:00] ---
    Lucky for us,
[07:02] ---
    the guys who got caught in
    the trap had an earth scroll!
[07:04] ---
    We’ll be the first to
    the tower at this rate!
[07:08] ---
    Don’t get carried away.
    That’s dangerous.
[07:12] ---
    No matter how small a bug it is,
    it has to guard itself at all times.
[07:17] ---
    We have to pay attention to avoid
    coming across any enemies...
[07:20] ---
    This is safety.
[07:22] ---
    I know that!
[07:23] ---
    As always, you’re speaking in a way
    that’s difficult to understand, bug-nerd.
[07:29] ---
    Um... B-But...
    What Shino said...
[07:33] ---
    He has a point.
[07:35] ---
    I know! C’mon.
[07:38] ---
    Naruto...
[07:39] ---
    I hope nothing’s happened to him...
[07:44] ---
    Hey you two, stop.
[07:48] ---
    We’re being careful not to
    come across enemy, right?
[07:51] ---
    Then Hinata!
[07:53] ---
    Can you see 1 kilometer
    in that direction?
[07:57] ---
    Yep... I’ll have a look.
    Byakugan!
[08:07] ---
    T-There’s someone there.
[08:12] ---
    Evidently there are... 6 people…
[08:16] ---
    Okay! Let’s go look!
[08:18] ---
    Huh?
[08:20] ---
    Kiba! What are you saying?
    We’re not doing that.
[08:23] ---
    The Proctor told us to bring
[08:25] ---
    one of each “Heaven” and “Earth”
    scroll in a pair.
[08:29] ---
    He didn’t say not to
    take more than that.
[08:32] ---
    If we take more, that means
    some other teams will be left out.
[08:39] ---
    B-But...
[08:40] ---
    We’ll just see what’s going on at first..
[08:42] ---
    If it looks too dangerous,
    we won’t battle for no reason.
[08:45] ---
    – Let’s go! – Oh!
[08:48] ---
    He’s an irritating type, that one.
[08:58] ---
    What’s up, Akamaru?
[09:01] ---
    What happened? You stopped suddenly.
[09:06] ---
    Akamaru suddenly got frightened.
[09:09] ---
    W-Why is that?
[09:11] ---
    Akamaru can sniff out the level of enemy’s
    Chakra and tell his strength.
[09:16] ---
    But this is the first time I’ve
    seen him this scared.
[09:20] ---
    The people going at it up ahead
    aren’t ordinary guys...
[09:29] ---
    Sand Village kids coming
    to challenge us forthright.
[09:33] ---
    It’s foolish.
[09:46] ---
    What’s that little guy thinking
    to get involved with those guys...?!
[09:55] ---
    W-What is Akamaru saying...?
[09:56] ---
    He’s saying that big guy is dangerous.
[10:02] ---
    T-They certainly look like bad news...
[10:05] ---
    They seem really strong.
[10:07] ---
    Hey, kids, you should
    pick your opponents...
[10:12] ---
    You’re all going to die.
[10:14] ---
    That’s enough of you.
[10:16] ---
    Let’s do this quickly...
    old chap from Hidden Rain Village.
[10:21] ---
    Which scroll do those guys have...
[10:25] ---
    Hey Gaara!
[10:27] ---
    Doesn’t it make sense to
    follow them
[10:29] ---
    and gather information
    before hunting them?
[10:31] ---
    If they have the same type of scroll
    there’s no need to fight.
[10:35] ---
    Unnecessary battles are….
[10:36] ---
    It doesn’t matter.
[10:39] ---
    If their eyes meet with mine...
    I’ll kill them all.
[10:45] ---
    That’s why I don’t want
     to be with this guy.
[10:50] ---
    Well, let’s do it. Quickly!
[10:59] ---
    Die, kid!
[11:01] ---
    Ninja Art: Senbon Rainstorm!
[11:06] ---
    Hidden Senbons!
[11:14] ---
    Up down right left,
    there is no dead spot in this Jutsu.
[11:17] ---
    In addition, all the Senbons are
    controlled by my Chakra
[11:20] ---
    and attack on the intended prey!
[11:27] ---
    Too easy.
[11:36] ---
    Is that all?
[11:38] ---
    I-It can’t be...?!
[11:39] ---
    Not even one...?
[11:41] ---
    No wounds...? Ridiculous!
[11:48] ---
    Senbon Rainstorm, huh...?
[11:51] ---
    Well, I’ll make it rain blood.
[12:10] ---
    What a giant Chakra.
[12:13] ---
    And, that sand...
[12:16] ---
    It smells terrible.
[12:19] ---
    Smell?
[12:23] ---
    A strong smell of blood...
[12:27] ---
    Wall of sand...?
[12:29] ---
    That’s right.
    An absolute defense by sand!
[12:34] ---
    He manipulates sand inside
    a gourd and
[12:36] ---
    hardens it with magnified Chakra.
[12:38] ---
    It defends the circumference
    of Gaara’s body.
[12:41] ---
    It’s a Jutsu that only
    he can get away with...
[12:44] ---
    Furthermore, it’s somehow always
    automatically done
[12:46] ---
    without Gaara’s intentions.
[12:49] ---
    Which means that all attacks
    in front of Gaara fade into nothing.
[12:55] ---
    That little...
[12:56] ---
    You guys can’t defeat our Gaara.
[13:00] ---
    Don’t underestimate me!
[13:08] ---
    This guy's a goner…
[13:10] ---
    That’s what you get for rebelling
    against Gaara...
[13:14] ---
    Sand Coffin!
[13:26] ---
    I can’t move...
[13:33] ---
    T-This won’t...!
[13:40] ---
    I can cover your loud mouth
    and kill you.
[13:50] ---
    But that’s too pathetic.
[14:18] ---
    Sand Burial!
[14:32] ---
    There’s no pain.
[14:35] ---
    I knocked him even harder
    than was necessary.
[14:39] ---
    The bloody tears of a corpse merge
    with vast sinking sand
[14:43] ---
    and provide more power
    to the demon of war.
[14:48] ---
    T-The scroll.
[14:50] ---
    We’ll give it to you!
[14:53] ---
    Please! Let us go!
[15:02] ---
    No-o-o-!
[15:13] ---
    T-This is bad.
[15:14] ---
    Let’s escape quickly!
    lf he finds us he’ll kill us!
[15:22] ---
    Luckily it is a Heaven scroll.
[15:24] ---
    Okay! Let’s go to the tower.
[15:27] ---
    Shut up.
[15:29] ---
    It’s still…not enough for me!
[15:34] ---
    U-Uh-oh! Did he notice us?!
[15:38] ---
    Let’s quit... Gaara.
[15:42] ---
    Are you scared, coward?
[15:46] ---
    Gaara! It’s certainly no problem for you,
    but it’s too dangerous for us!
[15:53] ---
    One set of scrolls is good.
[15:55] ---
    More than this is...
[15:59] ---
    Lame people don’t give directions to me.
[16:05] ---
    That’s enough!
[16:07] ---
    How about if you sometimes listen
    to what your big brother has to say?!
[16:11] ---
    I’ve never thought of you as my siblings.
[16:14] ---
    If you get in my way... I’ll kill you.
[16:24] ---
    G-Gaara cut it out! Please.
[16:27] ---
    Don’t say something so cold.
[16:30] ---
    As a favor to your sister... Okay?!
[16:57] ---
    Gaara!
[17:07] ---
    Fine.
[17:25] ---
    That’s why I hate brats.
[17:35] ---
    What? So that’s it Akamaru?
[17:38] ---
    C’mon, you should have
    said something sooner.
[17:46] ---
    Nobody’s here...?
[17:49] ---
    Heh heh! We’re the first?!
[17:52] ---
    No, I sensed someone a little while ago.
[17:55] ---
    More importantly, is Akamaru okay?
[17:58] ---
    He’s been scared ever since then.
[18:02] ---
    Now that you mention it,
    what did Akamaru say before?
[18:05] ---
    Oh... Akamaru said that it
    was dangerous
[18:08] ---
    because that sand squirt
    would kill that big guy.
[18:12] ---
    Sheesh! Just like I thought,
    there’s no other place to go!
[18:16] ---
    They’ve already made us
    wait for half a day!
[18:18] ---
    How much longer do we have to wait?
[18:38] ---
    Anyway. That Sand Village squirt...
[18:42] ---
    I don’t know what he is but,
    that guy…
[18:45] ---
    He’s too dangerous.
[18:54] ---
    It’s becoming a real disaster,
    but we can’t cancel this test.
[19:00] ---
    What do you mean?
[19:02] ---
    Excuse me!
[19:03] ---
    What is it?!
    We’re talking about something important!
[19:07] ---
    Excuse me.
[19:08] ---
    But... Uh...
[19:09] ---
    Please take a look at this!
[19:11] ---
    The video...?
[19:16] ---
    Ready? Here! Look at the time!
[19:28] ---
    T-This is…
[19:30] ---
    It’s a recording inside the tower,
[19:31] ---
    one hour and thirty-seven minutes
    after the start of the second test!
[19:38] ---
    Three Ninja from Hidden Sand Village
    broke through the second test.
[19:45] ---
    This can’t be...!
[19:47] ---
    In a mere ninety-seven minutes...
[19:50] ---
    This has never happened!
[19:54] ---
    This is an anomaly.
[19:55] ---
    Those guys are not Genin level.
[19:58] ---
    They’ve rewritten the
    fastest time by four hours…
[20:04] ---
    It’s not just that.
[20:06] ---
    What do you mean?
[20:09] ---
    It’s 10 kilometers
    from the test entrances to the tower.
[20:12] ---
    Ferocious animals, poisonous insects,
    the rugged forest road...
[20:16] ---
    As if those were not there…
[20:21] ---
    Especially the brown-haired kid
    right in front…
[20:24] ---
    What about him?
[20:26] ---
    You don’t notice?
[20:33] ---
    I see. This is quite a surprise.
[20:36] ---
    What about him is so...?
[20:40] ---
    Look closely at his body.
[20:52] ---
    I see.
[20:54] ---
    He doesn’t have a single scratch.
[20:56] ---
    What’s worse, there's not
    a smudge of dirt on his clothing.
[21:01] ---
    Even I...
[21:03] ---
    No, any of the other Chunin...
[21:06] ---
    It’s impossible for us to
    make it to this tower without a scratch.
[21:10] ---
    It’s likely that it has something
    to do with his ability.
[21:14] ---
    After a long time, a dependable
    guy has appeared.
[21:19] ---
    Even though he’s got evil eyes.
[21:24] ---
    Hey, can you hear it?
[21:29] ---
    The clear, blue sky goes on and on
[21:38] ---
    The ocean spans limitlessly
[21:47] ---
    Please keep that smile on your face forever
[21:57] ---
    Or else I’ll cry
[22:02] ---
    You won't have to search around you
[22:06] ---
    It’s all ok now.
[22:10] ---
    Everyone is inside
    this hand
[22:19] ---
    when you want to cry, and you want to run away
[22:24] ---
    When you forget what happiness is
[22:29] ---
    Just sing.
[22:33] ---
    Light is born, and darkness was born
[22:38] ---
    The two are one
[22:40] ---
    Harmonia, feel the telepathy
[22:47] ---
    Hey, can you hear it?
[22:58] ---
    – Please! – No!
[22:59] ---
    – Just a little bit. – No!
[23:00] ---
    – Really only a little bit.
    – No means no!
[23:03] ---
    I’ll just look a little and put it back.
[23:05] ---
    Remember what the
    Proctors said, loser.
[23:08] ---
    When they say don’t look, don’t look,
[23:10] ---
    it just makes me want
    to look all the more!
[23:12] ---
    If you can look when you can,
    let’s look!
[23:14] ---
    Naruto lost it!
[23:15] ---
    Sakura! Get a hold of Naruto!
[23:17] ---
    Next episode: “The Scroll’s Secret:
    No Peeking Allowed”
[23:20] ---
    I really want to look!

[00:06] ---
    Press down hard on the gas
[00:09] ---
    That’s right, there’s no compromise
[00:13] ---
    We'll slip through the night
[00:17] ---
    At the final moment push hard
[00:19] ---
    That's right, all the way to zero,
[00:24] ---
    Until we wipe away the days
[00:29] ---
    Gently open your heart
[00:34] ---
    If you pull it close to you
[00:40] ---
    It will reach you, without a doubt
[00:43] ---
    It will come, closer
[00:44] ---
    Now
[00:55] ---
    We’re speeding through life,
    squeezing it for all of its worth
[01:01] ---
    Our feet are tied
[01:02] ---
    But we still keep going farther
[01:06] ---
    Even if I take it back, and grasp it
[01:11] ---
    If you’re not the one
[01:13] ---
    There will be no meaning
[01:14] ---
    And so we’ll go far off into the distance.
[01:55] ---
    Special technique!
[01:57] ---
    Shadow Clone Jutsu, fishing version!
[02:23] ---
    Thrash about more!
[02:25] ---
    I want to catch some for curing!
[02:27] ---
    Three isn't enough!
[02:29] ---
    Three more, you loser!
[02:34] ---
    This is very taxing, you know?!
[02:37] ---
    I mean, let's switch!
[02:38] ---
    Sasuke!
[02:40] ---
    The fire's ready to light!
    Fireballs please.
[02:45] ---
    I guess three is okay for the time being…
[02:48] ---
    Wha--?
[02:49] ---
    Hey, wait a minute!
[02:52] ---
    The Scroll's Secret:
    No Peeking Allowed
[03:01] ---
    It's already been four days
    since the second exam started.
[03:04] ---
    Yeah.
[03:06] ---
    That's right.
[03:08] ---
    The start of the second exam
    was around three in the afternoon.
[03:11] ---
    We only have twenty-five or
    twenty-six hours left.
[03:15] ---
    There may already be
    some teams that have passed.
[03:18] ---
    That means…
[03:21] ---
    I wonder if it'll be broiled soon.
[03:24] ---
    We're soon going to be in a hot spot…
[03:29] ---
    That's the biggest one.
[03:32] ---
    Believe it!
[03:33] ---
    Okay…
[03:38] ---
    Even if we were to try pursuit,
[03:39] ---
    there's probably hardly anybody left
    to become targets.
[03:42] ---
    What do we do?
[03:49] ---
    Almost everyone's surely already passed.
[03:52] ---
    Yeah. It's already been
    four days, after all.
[03:56] ---
    Anyway…
[03:57] ---
    It's early afternoon now…
[03:58] ---
    Let's have a meal.
[04:03] ---
    You two rest a bit and
    I'll go find us something to eat.
[04:14] ---
    Say…
[04:15] ---
    Hmm?
[04:17] ---
    As I recall, on the other one…
[04:19] ---
    "Heaven" was written here…
[04:23] ---
    and unlike this,
    both edges of the scroll were whitish, right?
[04:27] ---
    Umm, when I was shown
    the scroll before the exam,
[04:31] ---
    I wasn't really looking.
[04:33] ---
    So, what of it all of a sudden?
[04:40] ---
    Y-You've got to be kidding…?
[04:52] ---
    For all we know…
[04:55] ---
    there may not be any Heaven scrolls.
[04:58] ---
    What do you mean, Sakura?
[05:00] ---
    Well, in this second exam…
[05:03] ---
    four of the five-day
    time limit have passed already.
[05:07] ---
    So that means we've already
    used eighty percent of the total exam time.
[05:12] ---
    Seventy-eight participants
    and twenty-six teams.
[05:15] ---
    There are only thirteen each
    of the Heaven and Earth scrolls.
[05:18] ---
    At most there are only
    thirteen passing teams.
[05:23] ---
    Moreover, you remember,
    don’t you, Sasuke?
[05:29] ---
    That the Orochimaru guy burned
     the “Heaven scroll” that we had.
[05:36] ---
    Which means…
[05:38] ---
    The teams that will pass had already,
    at that point, decreased by one.
[05:42] ---
    Hmm?
[05:44] ---
    Also, all of the other scrolls are
    not necessarily safe, so…
[05:52] ---
    After parting ways with
    the Leaf Village bunch,
[05:54] ---
    we allotted two days for healing…
[05:57] ---
    So from here on, we have to increase
    the distance of our actions.
[06:02] ---
    At any rate,
    the next enemy is our last chance.
[06:08] ---
    I'm going to get some drinking water.
[06:24] ---
    Say! Say!
[06:26] ---
    I have a good way for us not to fight
    with an enemy. Believe it!
[06:30] ---
    What?!
[06:35] ---
    Get serious!
[06:36] ---
    I am serious.
[06:38] ---
    I have lots of scrolls stocked, so.
[06:42] ---
    Ninjutsu manual, deadly poison manual,
    for notes….
[06:45] ---
    If we tweak this a little and change it
    into exactly like the Heaven scroll…
[06:48] ---
    H-Hold it!
[06:50] ---
    Huh?
[06:51] ---
    Even if you did such a thing,
    you don't know what's written on the inside!
[06:55] ---
    If the Proctor looked inside
    you will be discovered right away!
[06:57] ---
    Idiot!
[06:59] ---
    Generally with things like this,
[07:01] ---
    there's a password or
    something written
[07:03] ---
    and you can’t get it
    unless you have both scrolls.
[07:07] ---
    In other words…
[07:08] ---
    to pass at the tower goal,
    we'll surely need a password.
[07:12] ---
    Or something like that.
    Believe it!
[07:14] ---
    What difference does it make?
[07:17] ---
    If you don't know the content,
    there's no use making a fake!
[07:25] ---
    Man, here I was wondering what
    you were going to say, looking all big…
[07:29] ---
    You're an idiot who just can't
    think through things.
[07:31] ---
    B-But…
[07:33] ---
    What if we could predict the content…?
[07:37] ---
    This Earth scroll…
[07:38] ---
    You wouldn't…
[07:40] ---
    I'm going to…open this scroll!
[07:44] ---
    No!
[07:46] ---
    You! Have you forgotten
    even the rules, you idiot?
[07:49] ---
    We were told not to look inside the scrolls
    until arriving at the tower, right?
[07:53] ---
    But, at this rate,
    we’ll be in a hot spot, right?
[08:32] ---
    There might be a trap or something.
[08:34] ---
    Carefully… Be careful.
[08:37] ---
    Yeah.
[08:39] ---
    I know…
[09:48] ---
    Hey, what's wrong?
[09:50] ---
    Hey!
[09:58] ---
    What's wrong?
[09:59] ---
    What happened?!
[10:00] ---
    Hey!
[10:07] ---
    Hey! Answer me!
[10:47] ---
    You'd best not do it.
[10:56] ---
    An enemy?
[11:05] ---
    Man, you're beyond saving…
[11:08] ---
    That was close.
[11:10] ---
    W-We're sorry.
[11:14] ---
    Those who ignored the rules are forced
    into the situation of having to retire.
[11:19] ---
    In the previous exam, hypnotism
    Jutsu Formula was set up to
[11:23] ---
    get into the eyes of those who looked
    at the scroll along the way.
[11:27] ---
    A measure to get them to lie
    in the forest until the end of the exam.
[11:33] ---
    By the way…
[11:35] ---
    If I'm not mistaken, you're Kabuto, right?
[11:37] ---
    What're you doing hanging
    around here alone?
[11:40] ---
    It's not that I'm after your scroll.
[11:44] ---
    I didn't think so.
[11:45] ---
    If that was your intention…
    you could've taken it from Naruto just now.
[11:51] ---
    So you're also after the Heaven scroll?
[11:54] ---
    No.
[11:55] ---
    I already have them both.
[11:58] ---
    See?
[11:59] ---
    What?
[12:01] ---
    Things led to things…
[12:02] ---
    I was hurrying over to
    the vicinity of the tower
[12:04] ---
    to wait for my estranged companions.
[12:07] ---
    Now, if you'll excuse me…
[12:12] ---
    Wait!
[12:16] ---
    Fight me.
[12:23] ---
    Lucky!
[12:26] ---
    Fight you, you say?
[12:28] ---
    S-Sasuke.
[12:29] ---
    This idiot-suke.
[12:30] ---
    What are you saying suddenly?
[12:33] ---
    Are you serious?
[12:34] ---
    Sorry, but we don't have anymore time.
[12:39] ---
    Hey, Sasuke!
    Kabuto saved us!
[12:43] ---
    Sasuke, I don't know about that, myself.
[12:47] ---
    Shut up!
[12:49] ---
    Sasu…ke.
[12:51] ---
    It can't be helped.
    I said it before, too.
[12:54] ---
    This is all that can be done
    to survive through this forest now.
[12:58] ---
    Hmm…That's a lie.
[13:03] ---
    A lie?
[13:05] ---
    Your heart isn't totally in this
    as much as you're saying.
[13:11] ---
    If you could really become
    serious about this exam…
[13:15] ---
    Why is it necessary to fight me?
[13:19] ---
    You should jump on me
    at my unguarded moment,
[13:21] ---
    without going to
    the trouble of announcing it.
[13:25] ---
    That's…a Ninja.
[13:30] ---
    Hmm, that's profound.
[13:34] ---
    I don't dislike that side of you.
[13:38] ---
    So I shall tell you the way you should go.
[13:42] ---
    However…let's talk as we move.
[13:46] ---
    The smell of broiled fish in the fire smoke
    had reached a great distance.
[13:50] ---
    At this rate, we'll be marked
    by fierce animals…and enemies.
[14:00] ---
    Humph!
[14:08] ---
    Are there really still enemies around?
[14:10] ---
    Yes, no mistake.
[14:13] ---
    If you think about it a little,
    you'll understand.
[14:16] ---
    Do you know the cleverest way
    of fighting in battles
[14:19] ---
    in jungles and
    expansive forests such as this?
[14:22] ---
    No.
[14:23] ---
    The tower located in the center
    of this forest,
[14:26] ---
    the common goal for us test-takers.
[14:28] ---
    That means when the last day
    of the test is here…
[14:31] ---
    the area near that tower is
    the easiest place to gather scrolls.
[14:37] ---
    Oh, I see. Ambush, right?
[14:39] ---
    In other words, we go after the scrolls
    of the teams
[14:42] ---
    that have both the Heaven and Earth scrolls
    and are setting out for the tower.
[14:47] ---
    That's one-third of the answer.
[14:48] ---
    What?
[14:49] ---
    I mean that you guys are
    not the only ones thinking that!
[14:53] ---
    Near the tower, the same badgers
    have probably already set traps, so…
[14:57] ---
    I see!
[14:58] ---
    That means there are lots of enemies
    lying in wait to engage us.
[15:03] ---
    Heh, having a handicap
    gets me pumped, I say!
[15:07] ---
    I'm looking forward to it!
[15:08] ---
    If we just beat them all and
    get the Heaven scroll,
[15:12] ---
    we'll all survive the second exam!
[15:14] ---
    No! This is still two-thirds of the answer!
[15:17] ---
    What's the remaining
    one-third of the answer?
[15:20] ---
    The collectors who are certain
    to appear during an exam of this nature.
[15:23] ---
    Collectors?
[15:26] ---
    In this exam, with the tower
    just a stone's throw away,
[15:28] ---
    you definitely can't rest easy…
[15:31] ---
    Those particular conditions
    are what create them.
[15:34] ---
    In other words,
    those who gather extra scrolls…
[15:38] ---
    as compensation for sparing them
    when coming across an unexpected enemy.
[15:43] ---
    Also, those who get information to
    proceed favorably through later exams
[15:48] ---
    by providing the lacking scrolls to
    comrades sharing the same village.
[15:53] ---
    And those who are thinking of,
    under conditions favorable to them,
[15:57] ---
    annihilating the powerful ones who
    will probably get through to the third exam.
[16:02] ---
    It goes without saying,
    but these guys are quite the big guns
[16:06] ---
    and the worst enemies who
    are definitely not conceited.
[16:10] ---
    I see.
[16:11] ---
    I understand the reason
    why you appeared before us.
[16:16] ---
    You're scared, too, right?
[16:19] ---
    That's right.
[16:29] ---
    Now then, the tower has finally
    come into view.
[16:32] ---
    From here on is the hard part.
[16:34] ---
    All right, let's go!
[16:37] ---
    An enemy already?
[16:40] ---
    There!
[16:52] ---
    Oh, it's just a centipede.
[16:54] ---
    Yikes! It's huge.
[16:56] ---
    All those legs are gross.
[16:59] ---
    Naruto.
[17:01] ---
    Huh?
[17:02] ---
    I'd like to avoid inadvertent sounds and
    careless actions from here on.
[17:06] ---
    Huh?
[17:07] ---
    Rushing ahead through a dense forest
    making noise like an elephant
[17:10] ---
    is the same as serving notice
    in a loud voice that we're coming.
[17:15] ---
    We'd definitely receive
    an enthusiastic welcome.
[17:18] ---
    O-Oh, I see.
[17:22] ---
    As long as time allows, we should
    go slowly while remaining hidden.
[17:25] ---
    – Yeah. – Okay.
[17:27] ---
    Sure.
[17:38] ---
    Heh, not bad, everyone.
[17:50] ---
    Oh?
[18:00] ---
    Okay, it's this way.
[18:23] ---
    Is it a trap?
[18:25] ---
    Yeah. It'll get intense ahead from here on.
[18:48] ---
    Kabuto!
[18:53] ---
    H-Huh?
[18:54] ---
    That was close, Naruto.
[18:59] ---
    Substitution Jutsu!
[19:01] ---
    I told you, it would get intense ahead
    from here on.
[19:12] ---
    I've…had it…
[19:14] ---
    Oh! Sakura!
[19:17] ---
    For crying out loud,
    how far have we walked?
[19:19] ---
    The tower hasn't gotten a bit closer.
[19:23] ---
    Here we can see it right
    in front of our eyes.
[19:25] ---
    Strange…
[19:27] ---
    No mistake about it.
[19:29] ---
    It seems that we're already
    within the enthusiastic welcome.
[19:34] ---
    Take a look at that.
[19:38] ---
    Oh, that can't be!
[19:44] ---
    What on earth is going on?
[19:46] ---
    No way!
[19:48] ---
    Is it Genjutsu…?
[19:49] ---
    So it seems.
[19:52] ---
    We were lured in perfectly.
[19:54] ---
    It appears we were
    meticulously careful,
[19:57] ---
    and were made to walk around
    the same place in a circle.
[20:01] ---
    We're being watched…
[20:03] ---
    Probably.
[20:05] ---
    They intend to wear down
    our physical strength and
[20:07] ---
    catch us unprepared
    when we're bone-tired.
[20:09] ---
    If so, then this follows the enemy strategy.
[20:13] ---
    Then... they'll be coming soon.
[21:01] ---
    They’ve appeared.
[21:03] ---
    Hah!
[21:05] ---
    This is the perfect handicap.
[21:18] ---
    Hey, can you hear it?
[21:23] ---
    The clear, blue sky goes on and on
[21:32] ---
    The ocean spans limitlessly
[21:41] ---
    Please keep that smile on your face forever
[21:50] ---
    Or else I’ll cry
[21:56] ---
    You won't have to search around you
[22:00] ---
    It’s all ok now.
[22:04] ---
    Everyone is inside
    this hand
[22:13] ---
    when you want to cry, and you want to run away
[22:18] ---
    When you forget what happiness is
[22:22] ---
    Just sing.
[22:26] ---
    Light is born, and darkness was born
[22:31] ---
    The two are one
[22:34] ---
    Harmonia, feel the telepathy
[22:41] ---
    Hey, can you hear it?
[22:50] ---
    What's with these guys?
[22:52] ---
    Crawling out all of a sudden?
[22:54] ---
    Fighting in numbers isn't necessarily
    a good thing, you know?
[22:56] ---
    Since it's come to this,
[22:58] ---
    it'll be a comparison of
    the number of Clone Jutsu.
[22:59] ---
    I can get twice of twice of
    twice of twice of your...
[23:03] ---
    Anyway, I'll multiply
    to an incredible number!
[23:06] ---
    It doesn't matter if it's
    your Genjutsu or whatever.
[23:08] ---
    I'll kick all their butts!
[23:11] ---

[00:06] ---
    Press down hard on the gas
[00:09] ---
    That’s right, there’s no compromise
[00:13] ---
    We'll slip through the night
[00:17] ---
    At the final moment push hard
[00:19] ---
    That's right, all the way to zero,
[00:24] ---
    Until we wipe away the days
[00:29] ---
    Gently open your heart
[00:34] ---
    If you pull it close to you
[00:40] ---
    It will reach you, without a doubt
[00:43] ---
    It will come, closer
[00:44] ---
    Now
[00:55] ---
    We’re speeding through life,
    squeezing it for all of its worth
[01:01] ---
    Our feet are tied
[01:02] ---
    But we still keep going farther
[01:06] ---
    Even if I take it back, and grasp it
[01:11] ---
    If you’re not the one
[01:13] ---
    There will be no meaning
[01:14] ---
    And so we’ll go far off into the distance.
[01:59] ---
    If “Heaven” does not exist,
[02:00] ---
    enrich your knowledge,
    and prepare for the chance.
[02:01] ---
    If “Earth” does not exist,
[02:02] ---
    run the fields in search
    of an advantage.
[02:04] ---
    Open the series of Heaven and Earth,
    and the perilous way shall be redressed…
[02:08] ---
    This is namely the secret of
    “the one that guides…”
[02:14] ---
    What’s that?
[02:15] ---
    It probably has to do with the scroll.
[02:18] ---
    I think this means we’re supposed
    to open the Heaven & Earth scroll.
[02:36] ---
    Okay then, I’m going to open it.
[02:49] ---
    Huh? What’s this?
[02:52] ---
    A man…?
[02:53] ---
    A person…?
[02:59] ---
    This is…a Summoning Jutsu!
[03:01] ---
    Naruto! Sakura!
    Let go of the scroll!
[03:05] ---
    Oh...
[03:17] ---
    Wha--?!
[03:18] ---
    Y-You…
[03:29] ---
    Hi!
[03:32] ---
    It’s been a long time.
[03:35] ---
    Surviving the Cut!
    The Rookie Nine Together Again!
[03:47] ---
    W-What’s going on?
[03:49] ---
    It appears you guys have had
    a rough time of it.
[03:53] ---
    What?!
[03:54] ---
    Why are you appearing with
    a Summoning?
[03:58] ---
    At the end of this second exam,
[04:00] ---
    we Chunin are to
    welcome the test-takers.
[04:05] ---
    I just happened to be given
[04:06] ---
    the important task of being
    the messenger for you guys.
[04:10] ---
    Messenger…?!
[04:16] ---
    Just in time.
[04:21] ---
    Everyone…
[04:23] ---
    Congratulations on surviving
    the second exam.
[04:29] ---
    To celebrate your passing,
[04:30] ---
    I’d like to treat you to
    some Ichiraku ramen, but…
[04:34] ---
    Ohh... Cool!
[04:36] ---
    Uh-oh…
[04:38] ---
    H-Hey, Naruto!
[04:39] ---
    – Listen to the end…
    – Cool! Cool!
[04:42] ---
    Ramen! Ramen! Believe it!
[04:46] ---
    I’ve done great job!
    I’m the greatest!
[04:48] ---
    I so want to eat ramen!
    Believe it!
[04:53] ---
    He’s got so much energy.
[04:55] ---
    Yaaaay!
[04:56] ---
    Shut up!
[04:58] ---
    Man, that scatterbrained part
    of you is the same as always, eh.
[05:05] ---
    I see.
[05:07] ---
    Huh?
[05:08] ---
    If we had looked at the scroll
    in the middle of the exam,
[05:12] ---
    what were you going to do, Iruka Sensei?
[05:19] ---
    Sasuke, you’re a sharp one,
    as usual.
[05:25] ---
    You guessed right.
[05:27] ---
    The rules of this exam were to test
    your conclusive mission execution ability.
[05:34] ---
    To put it simply,
[05:35] ---
    in the case of the scrolls being opened
    contrary to the rules…
[05:40] ---
    In the case of them being opened…?
[05:47] ---
    I was ordered to knock unconscious
    the test-takers in front of me
[05:52] ---
    until the end of the exam.
[05:56] ---
    Good thing you didn’t open the scroll.
[06:01] ---
    Kabuto, thank you!
[06:04] ---
    Phew!
[06:06] ---
    That was seriously close…
[06:11] ---
    Oh yeah, Sensei!
[06:12] ---
    Huh?
[06:14] ---
    By the way,
    what’re the letters on that wall?
[06:16] ---
    They’re kind of vermiculated and
[06:19] ---
    we don’t understand
    their meaning at all.
[06:22] ---
    Never mind, never mind!
[06:24] ---
    We passed!
[06:27] ---
    No…explaining that is
    one more of my duties.
[06:33] ---
    What, really?
[06:35] ---
    I’m saying that’s right.
[06:39] ---
    Give it a read.
[06:41] ---
    These are Chunin instructions
    Master Hokage recorded.
[06:45] ---
    Instructions?!
[06:47] ---
    That’s right!
[06:48] ---
    Heaven in this text
    refers to the human head.
[06:52] ---
    Earth refers to the human body.
[06:55] ---
    No kidding…
[06:56] ---
    If “Heaven” does not exist,
[06:58] ---
    enrich your knowledge,
    and prepare for the chance.
[07:01] ---
    In other words…
[07:03] ---
    If your weaknesses are
    inside your head, Naruto…
[07:06] ---
    learn various logics in
    preparing for your missions.
[07:10] ---
    Hah! So meddlesome!
[07:14] ---
    If “Earth” does not exist,
[07:16] ---
    run through the fields
    in search of an advantage.
[07:18] ---
    If your weaknesses are in
    your physical strength, Sakura,
[07:22] ---
    it means you must not
    slack off on your daily training.
[07:29] ---
    And if you combine both
    Heaven and Earth…
[07:33] ---
    Any perilous mission is the right way…
[07:36] ---
    In other words…
[07:37] ---
    what can also be called a rule
    of might and become a safe mission.
[07:42] ---
    Then, what about
    the spot with the missing letter?
[07:46] ---
    The letter refers to Chunin.
[07:49] ---
    The one letter for “person” that
    was in the scroll from earlier goes there.
[07:55] ---
    These five days of survival
    were to test
[07:57] ---
    the test-takers’ fundamental
    abilities as Chunin.
[08:01] ---
    And you guys cleared it in fine style.
[08:05] ---
    Chunin is of unit-leader class.
[08:07] ---
    They have the responsibility
    of leading a team.
[08:10] ---
    Be more deeply aware of
    the necessity of physical strength…
[08:14] ---
    and knowledge in missions!
[08:18] ---
    I want you to take on
    the next step,
[08:21] ---
    never forgetting these
    Chunin instructions.
[08:25] ---
    That is all of the messenger task
    I was given.
[08:32] ---
    Got it!
[08:43] ---
    Huh?
[08:47] ---
    But, as for the final third exam,
    don’t push it too far.
[08:53] ---
    Especially you, Naruto.
[08:55] ---
    – You’re the biggest worry…
    – Iruka Sensei.
[08:57] ---
    From when I received the
    Leaf headband,
[09:00] ---
    I was no longer
    an Academy student, you know?!
[09:03] ---
    There’s nothing to worry!
    Believe it!
[09:06] ---
    Also, this is the proof you
    gave me that I’m full-fledged, right?!
[09:11] ---
    That I’m scatterbrained may
    not have changed,
[09:15] ---
    but I’m not a kid anymore!
[09:19] ---
    I'm now...
[09:24] ---
    A Ninja!
[09:34] ---
    I see.
[09:35] ---
    I’m sorry, Naruto.
[09:42] ---
    I know their strength the best.
[09:45] ---
    If it’s futile anyway,
[09:46] ---
    I would like to give them
    the final word personally.
[09:48] ---
    If you’re that hung up on it,
    I can leave that team to you.
[09:54] ---
    To think you’d play the devil’s advocate…
[09:58] ---
    Thank you very much.
[10:00] ---
    But, they’re Kakashi’s, right?
[10:04] ---
    If he’s the one who
    recommended them,
[10:06] ---
    I thought I could count on them.
[10:14] ---
    Stay out of it!
[10:15] ---
    They’re not your students anymore.
    They’re my subordinates now.
[10:27] ---
    The one who might truly understand
[10:33] ---
    the strength of these kids.
    might be you, Kakashi.
[10:45] ---
    How is it?
[10:47] ---
    Does the Curse Mark still hurt?
[10:49] ---
    No.
[10:50] ---
    Thanks to you,
    it’s gotten quite a bit better.
[10:53] ---
    Anyway, Orochimaru is one
    of those three legendary Leaf Ninjas, right?
[10:59] ---
    He’s a S-rank bingo book
    rouge Shinobi
[11:02] ---
    who even the Anbu couldn’t touch, right?
[11:06] ---
    I heard that he’d already died, but…
[11:08] ---
    Why’d he come to this village now…?
[11:21] ---
    There’s a kid I want, you see.
[11:25] ---
    This kid inherits the abilities
    of the Uchiha clan, so…
[11:34] ---
    It's...
[11:36] ---
    It’s probably Sasuke, right?
[11:37] ---
    Huh?!
[11:39] ---
    Master Anko!
[11:41] ---
    Twenty-one second exam
    finishers have been confirmed.
[11:45] ---
    As for the third exam, according
    to the regulations of the Chunin Exams,
[11:48] ---
    preliminaries are planned for
    the first time in five years.
[11:51] ---
    The second exam is over.
[12:01] ---
    For the time being,
    continue the exams as is,
[12:05] ---
    but while keeping
    an eye on his movements.
[12:09] ---
    Yes…
[12:23] ---
    First off, congratulations on
    finishing the second exam.
[12:28] ---
    There were seventy-eight
    test-takers for the second exam.
[12:32] ---
    To think twenty-one have
    made it this far.
[12:35] ---
    I said to make it less than half,
    but I’d really thought about single digits.
[12:53] ---
    I’m hungry!
[12:54] ---
    There are still this many remaining?
[12:57] ---
    This is such a major pain.
[13:01] ---
    Sasuke and others have passed, too.
[13:03] ---
    Of course…
[13:10] ---
    We went to that much trouble
    to save them…
[13:12] ---
    It’d all be for naught if they didn’t pass.
[13:18] ---
    Your team didn’t do too bad.
[13:22] ---
    I guess they were lucky.
[13:24] ---
    But as long as my team is around,
    they can’t go any higher.
[13:28] ---
    After all, whether you
    like it or not,
[13:31] ---
    ability talks at the next barrier.
[13:33] ---
    Well, adolescence can sometimes
    be bittersweet and
[13:36] ---
    can sometimes be harsh, Kakashi…
[13:40] ---
    Did you say something?
[13:41] ---
    Oh my God!
[13:49] ---
    Not bad, my rival Kakashi.
[13:52] ---
    But that part of you is so hip...
    which is what annoys me!
[13:56] ---
    So that’s Guy Sensei’s eternal rival, eh?
[14:00] ---
    Guy Sensei totally loses visually…
[14:03] ---
    Guy Sensei is the hippest
    of all the teachers!
[14:08] ---
    He shines!
[14:09] ---
    Okay!
[14:10] ---
    Please watch, Guy Sensei!
    I’ll shine, too!
[14:28] ---
    I don’t ever want to see
    tears of those dear to me again.
[14:36] ---
    So…
[14:38] ---
    I won’t ever lose again!
[14:40] ---
    Guy Sensei.
[14:42] ---
    Sure enough, the outstanding candidates
    have gathered.
[14:49] ---
    Sasuke Uchiha, eh?
[14:54] ---
    I’ll get you back for my arms,
    Sasuke Uchiha…
[14:59] ---
    At any cost.
[15:12] ---
    To think a mere seven teams
    are left of the twenty-six…
[15:18] ---
    Sure enough, Gaara is unhurt.
[15:25] ---
    Akamaru’s acting strange…
[15:32] ---
    Those Sand Village guys…
[15:36] ---
    Naruto passed, too.
[15:39] ---
    Thank goodness…
[15:41] ---
    What, all the Leaf Village
    rookies are here.
[15:45] ---
    Say! Say!
[15:46] ---
    Old man Hokage and Iruka Sensei and
    even Intense-Brow are here. Believe it!
[15:50] ---
    It feels like everyone’s assembled.
[15:53] ---
    Humph…I don’t have a very good feeling.
[16:00] ---
    To think this many are left…
[16:03] ---
    Moreover, of those left, almost all are rookies…
[16:07] ---
    So that’s why they fought
     in recommending them.
[16:11] ---
    Now then, we will now have
    the explanation of the third exam
[16:14] ---
    from Master Hokage.
[16:16] ---
    Listen carefully, everybody!
[16:19] ---
    Now then, if you will,
    Master Hokage.
[16:22] ---
    All right.
[16:29] ---
    Before the explanation of
    the third exam that we will start from now,
[16:35] ---
    I have just one thing I want
    to tell everyone flat out.
[16:41] ---
    About the true purpose of these exams.
[16:45] ---
    True purpose…?!
[16:47] ---
    Why do allied nations conduct
    the exams on a conjoint basis?
[16:53] ---
    Huh?
[16:54] ---
    Raising the levels of the shinobi
    and friendship among allied nations.
[16:59] ---
    It won’t do to have the wrong idea
    of the true meaning of that statement.
[17:03] ---
    These exams are so to speak…
[17:06] ---
    So to speak…?
[17:16] ---
    A microcosm of battle
    between allied nations.
[17:21] ---
    What does that mean?
[17:23] ---
    If we look back on history,
[17:25] ---
    the allied nations of today were
    once neighboring nations
[17:28] ---
    that continued to vie with
    each other and battle for power.
[17:33] ---
    In order to avoid a futile crushing
    of each others’ military strength,
[17:39] ---
    those nations mutually selected
    a place to battle.
[17:42] ---
    And that was how the
    Chunin Exams originally began.
[17:51] ---
    W-Why do we have
    to do such a thing?
[17:55] ---
    We’re not doing this to
    select Chunins?!
[17:58] ---
    There is no question that these exams
    are to select Shinobi
[18:04] ---
    worthy of becoming Chunin.
[18:08] ---
    But on the other hand,
[18:10] ---
    these exams also provide a venue
[18:12] ---
    for Shinobi who carry their nation’s pride
    on their backs to fight for their lives!
[18:18] ---
    Nation’s pride…?
[18:20] ---
    Many feudal lords and those of
    prominence from many nations
[18:25] ---
    who request Shinobi for work
    are invited to this third exam as guests.
[18:32] ---
    And, the feudal lords and
    Head Ninja of each Village
[18:35] ---
    of the nations will watch your battles.
[18:40] ---
    If the gap in national power
    becomes unbridgeable,
[18:42] ---
    the strong nations are inundated
    with job requests.
[18:46] ---
    The requests of nations deemed
    weak, on the other hand, decline.
[18:51] ---
    And therewithal,
[18:52] ---
    we can exert pressure upon
    each neighboring nation...
[18:59] ---
    That is to say, just how much military
    strength our Village is developing and has.
[19:04] ---
    Even so, why is it necessary for
    us to fight for our lives?!
[19:09] ---
    The nation’s strength is
    the Village’s strength.
[19:12] ---
    The Village’s strength is
    the Shinobi’s strength.
[19:15] ---
    And the true strength of the Shinobi
    is created only in a fight for one’s life!
[19:22] ---
    This exam is a place to see
    the strength of home country Shinobi,
[19:27] ---
    and a place to display this as well.
[19:29] ---
    It is because it’s an exam where
    you truly fight for your life
[19:33] ---
    that this has meaning.
[19:34] ---
    It’s for this very reason that
    your forerunners fought in this exam,
[19:38] ---
    a dream worth striving for.
[19:43] ---
    Then why…
    use the expression “friendship”?!
[19:48] ---
    I said it at the start, didn’t I?!
[19:51] ---
    That it won’t do for you to have
    the wrong idea of the meaning!
[19:54] ---
    It’s a custom where balance is
    preserved by fighting and removing life.
[20:00] ---
    This is the friendship
    of the Shinobi world.
[20:02] ---
    This is a fight for life with
    the pride of the village and
[20:05] ---
    one’s own dream on the line.
[20:15] ---
    Heh, I’m convinced.
[20:18] ---
    Anything is fine.
[20:20] ---
    Just tell us the content of
    that fight-for-life test.
[20:25] ---
    Very well.
[20:26] ---
    Now then, this is where I’d like to
    explain the third exam.
[20:31] ---
    But actually…
[20:37] ---
    Master Hokage, please allow me,
    Hayate Gekko,
[20:42] ---
    who was given the task of judge,
     to speak first.
[20:45] ---
    I leave it to you…
[20:48] ---
    Nice to meet you, everyone…
[20:52] ---
    Umm, there’s something…
    I'd like you all to do...
[20:57] ---
    before the third exam.
[21:17] ---
    Hey, can you hear it?
[21:22] ---
    The clear, blue sky goes on and on
[21:31] ---
    The ocean spans limitlessly
[21:40] ---
    Please keep that smile on your face forever
[21:49] ---
    Or else I’ll cry
[21:55] ---
    You won't have to search around you
[21:59] ---
    It’s all ok now.
[22:03] ---
    Everyone is inside
    this hand
[22:12] ---
    when you want to cry, and you want to run away
[22:17] ---
    When you forget what happiness is
[22:21] ---
    Just sing.
[22:25] ---
    Light is born, and darkness was born
[22:30] ---
    The two are one
[22:33] ---
    Harmonia, feel the telepathy
[22:40] ---
    Hey, can you hear it?
[22:50] ---
    What's the idea?
    Sudden preliminaries?
[22:53] ---
    Didn't we just get to the tower?
    Also, something's wrong with Sasuke.
[22:57] ---
    It's too much for you, Sasuke!
    Please, drop out!
[23:00] ---
    You're in no condition
    to fight properly!
[23:03] ---
    No matter what you say,
[23:05] ---
    I'm going to tell the teachers
    about that bruise.
[23:08] ---
    Next episode: "Narrowing the Field:
    Sudden Death Elimination!"

    Sasuke, I'm scared.

[00:06] ---
    Press down hard on the gas
[00:09] ---
    That’s right, there’s no compromise
[00:13] ---
    We'll slip through the night
[00:17] ---
    At the final moment push hard
[00:20] ---
    That's right, all the way to zero,
[00:24] ---
    Until we wipe away the days
[00:29] ---
    Gently open your heart
[00:35] ---
    If you pull it close to you
[00:40] ---
    It will reach you, without a doubt
[00:43] ---
    It will come, closer
[00:44] ---
    Now
[00:55] ---
    We’re speeding through life,
    squeezing it for all of its worth
[01:01] ---
    Our feet are tied
[01:02] ---
    But we still keep going farther
[01:06] ---
    Even if I take it back, and grasp it
[01:12] ---
    If you’re not the one
[01:13] ---
    There will be no meaning
[01:14] ---
    And so we’ll go far off into the distance.
[01:45] ---
    It’s a custom where balance is preserved
    by fighting and removing life.
[01:51] ---
    This is the friendship
    of the Shinobi world.
[01:53] ---
    This is a fight for life with the pride
    of the village and
[01:56] ---
    one’s own dream on the line.
[02:00] ---
    Heh, I’m convinced.
[02:03] ---
    Anything is fine.
[02:05] ---
    Just tell us the content
    of that fight-for-life test.
[02:10] ---
    Very well.
[02:11] ---
    Now then, this is where I’d
    like to explain the third exam.
[02:15] ---
    But actually…
[02:20] ---
    Please allow me, Hayate Gekko who was
    given the task of judge, to speak first.
[02:25] ---
    I leave it to you…
[02:28] ---
    There’s something... I’d like you all
    to do...
[02:33] ---
    before the third exam.
[02:40] ---
    And that is a preliminary
    to the third exam,
[02:44] ---
    with participation in
    the main battle on the line.
[02:49] ---
    Preliminary?
[02:50] ---
    What do you mean…preliminary?!
[02:53] ---
    Sensei, I don’t understand
    the point of that preliminary.
[02:58] ---
    Why aren’t we doing the next exam
    with the remaining test-takers?
[03:03] ---
    This time around,
[03:05] ---
    perhaps because the first and
    second exams were easy,
[03:09] ---
    there are a few too many
    people left, you see.
[03:13] ---
    In accordance with the rules
    of the Chunin Exams,
[03:16] ---
    a preliminary will be held in order to
    reduce the number advancing.
[03:21] ---
    N-No way!
[03:23] ---
    As Lord Hokage said before,
[03:27] ---
    many guests will be coming
     to the third exam.
[03:31] ---
    So we can’t have long pointless matches
    and our time is limited as well.
[03:37] ---
    Therefore, those of you
    not in top physical condition…
[03:43] ---
    Hey, is he okay…?!
[03:46] ---
    The teacher doesn’t look well himself?!
[03:50] ---
    Excuse me.
[03:51] ---
    Those of you who wish to drop out,
    please speak up now.
[03:57] ---
    The preliminary will
    begin immediately, so…
[04:00] ---
    Immediately, you say…?!
[04:01] ---
    But we finally made it through
     the second exam.
[04:06] ---
    This is a pain…
[04:08] ---
    Huh? What about our meal?
[04:12] ---
    Narrowing the Field:
    Sudden Death Elimination!
[04:20] ---
    Okay!
[04:22] ---
    I’m going to do my best, no matter what!
[04:24] ---
    I promised Kabuto, too…
[04:28] ---
    And oh...
[04:29] ---
    I forgot to mention this, but it will
    be individual battles from now on.
[04:35] ---
    It is your decision, so feel free
    to raise your hands and drop out.
[04:40] ---
    Who’s going to quit?!
[04:45] ---
    Sasuke?!
[04:48] ---
    The waves of pain are
    coming faster...
[04:53] ---
    Sasuke… I knew it.
[04:56] ---
    Sasuke, you should quit
    these preliminaries!
[05:00] ---
    Huh?!
[05:02] ---
    L-Look, you haven't been yourself
[05:04] ---
    ever since you got worked
    over by that Orochimaru guy!
[05:08] ---
    That bruise hurts even now, right…?
[05:12] ---
    Bruise…?
[05:14] ---
    At this rate…!
[05:22] ---
    I gave him a parting gift.
[05:25] ---
    Sasuke will definitely seek me…
    in search of power.
[05:46] ---
    You’re the only one left.
[05:51] ---
    Please…
[05:54] ---
    Please, quit!
[05:58] ---
    I’m…scared.
[06:03] ---
    Sakura…
[06:08] ---
    I knew it.
[06:10] ---
    What shall we do?
[06:12] ---
    We should remove him
    from the exams
[06:14] ---
    and isolate him with
    Anbu bodyguards on him.
[06:17] ---
    We should recommend that
    he retire immediately.
[06:19] ---
    He’s not the kind of type to
     just obey like that…?!
[06:25] ---
    After all, he’s of the Uchiha clan.
[06:28] ---
    What’re you talking nonsense for?!
[06:30] ---
    I’ll make him stop, by force if needed!
[06:32] ---
    The Curse Mark responds even
    when one’s just building up Chakra
[06:35] ---
    and attempts to forcibly
    extract his strength!
[06:38] ---
    It’s a prohibited Jutsu that eats
    into the body of the one who uses a Jutsu!
[06:43] ---
    It’s a wonder that kid is even enduring it.
[06:47] ---
    He should really already be dead!
[06:50] ---
    Lord Hokage!
[06:54] ---
    You’re in no condition to
    fight properly, Sasuke…!
[06:58] ---
    Shut up.
[06:59] ---
    I understand!
[07:02] ---
    Be quiet!
[07:03] ---
    But you’ve been enduring the pain
    this whole time, right?!
[07:07] ---
    Please be quiet!
[07:09] ---
    No matter what you say, Sasuke...
[07:12] ---
    I’m going to tell the teachers
    about the bruise!
[07:16] ---
    If I do that...
[07:20] ---
    Well…
[07:22] ---
    Oh…?!
[07:23] ---
    What…?
[07:28] ---
    Excuse me…I’ll quit.
[07:34] ---
    K-Kabuto…?
[07:39] ---
    Let's see...
[07:43] ---
    Kabuto Yakushi of
    the Leaf Village, correct?
[07:47] ---
    Then, you may step back.
[07:50] ---
    Okay.
[07:52] ---
    Kabuto!
[07:54] ---
    Why’re you quitting?!
[07:56] ---
    Tell me! Why?!
[08:00] ---
    This guy…
[08:02] ---
    I’m sorry, Naruto…
[08:05] ---
    But my body is worn out.
[08:11] ---
    Actually before the first exam...
[08:13] ---
    when I wrangled with
    the guys from Sound Village,
[08:15] ---
    I’ve had no hearing at all in my left ear.
[08:20] ---
    To fight right away…
[08:22] ---
    and to be told that my life would
    also be on the line, I can’t go on.
[08:33] ---
    I’ve seen that face a few times.
[08:37] ---
    As I recall, I think he dropped out
    of the main battle before, as well.
[08:42] ---
    What in the world is he thinking?
[08:46] ---
    Anko.
[08:47] ---
    Uh…yes.
[08:51] ---
    Kabuto Yakushi.
[08:53] ---
    According to the data,
    he has failed six straight times.
[08:58] ---
    What about his background?
[09:01] ---
    From his time at the Academy,
[09:02] ---
    he was a student who did
    not really stand out,
[09:04] ---
    and his grades were ordinary.
[09:06] ---
    He finally passed the graduation
     exam on his third try.
[09:10] ---
    After that, as for the missions
    he carried out,
[09:11] ---
    two C-ranks and fourteen D-ranks.
[09:15] ---
    It’s not a battle record to
    write home about.
[09:20] ---
    However…
[09:22] ---
    However…?
[09:23] ---
    It’s about before the Academy.
[09:26] ---
    Hmm?
[09:28] ---
    Do you remember the story...
[09:29] ---
    about the one boy brought back
    from the Kikyo Pass battle?
[09:36] ---
    I remember.
[09:38] ---
    As I recall, I heard an enemy boy survivor
    at the battlefield
[09:42] ---
    was taken back by a Jonin from
    the medical unit.
[09:47] ---
    So he’s that boy…?
[09:50] ---
    Don’t take arbitrary actions.
[09:53] ---
    Have you forgotten
    Orochimaru’s orders?
[09:57] ---
    I leave it to you guys.
[09:59] ---
    You in particular, Yoroi.
[10:01] ---
    There should be no problems
    here with your ability.
[10:07] ---
    This is where you can
    show your strength.
[10:10] ---
    Those of you who are irritated that
    I’m ahead of you.
[10:15] ---
    So you’re Orochimaru’s favorite, huh?
[10:19] ---
    Don’t get all high and mighty, kid.
[10:21] ---
    I understand, Yoroi sir.
[10:30] ---
    Oh.
[10:33] ---
    Naruto… Sasuke…
[10:36] ---
    I wanted to play with you guys
    a little more.
[10:40] ---
    But if I do more than this…
[10:42] ---
    The old me might get stirred up.
[10:45] ---
    I am a spy so far as it goes.
[10:48] ---
    I cannot expose myself, here.
[10:53] ---
    Also…if you are going to watch.
[10:57] ---
    My role of information collecting
    has served its purpose…
[11:01] ---
    Master Orochimaru.
[11:04] ---
    I’ll save the fun, for some other time…
[11:08] ---
    Sasuke…
[11:11] ---
    And Naruto...
[11:13] ---
    You too.
[11:30] ---
    Now then, there are no others
    who will quit?
[11:36] ---
    I must tell the teachers,
    about Sasuke’s bruise!
[11:43] ---
    Huh?!
[11:46] ---
    Be quiet about this bruise.
[11:56] ---
    Why’re you acting tough like that?!
[11:58] ---
    I don’t want to watch you suffer
    all the time anymore!
[12:02] ---
    For me you are…!
[12:04] ---
    This has nothing to do with you!
[12:08] ---
    It’s none of your business.
[12:16] ---
    I said it once before…
[12:22] ---
    I’m an avenger.
[12:25] ---
    This is not just a mere exam to me.
[12:29] ---
    The Chunin business has
    nothing to do with me.
[12:36] ---
    “Am I strong?”
    All I want is the answer to that.
[12:41] ---
    By fighting with those who are strong!
[12:44] ---
    And…
[12:46] ---
    I’m Gaara of the desert.
[12:49] ---
    Hey, you there…
    ldentify yourself.
[12:53] ---
    I declare.
[12:54] ---
    You are absolutely no match for me.
[12:58] ---
    If I have the opportunity to fight you
    in the next exam,
[13:03] ---
    we won’t run or hide.
[13:06] ---
    And they’re... here!
[13:15] ---
    I will not allow even you
    to take my path away from me!
[13:21] ---
    Sasuke…
[13:23] ---
    You!
[13:24] ---
    What’re you doing putting up
    a front, you idiot?!
[13:27] ---
    Here Sakura is this worried about you--!
[13:29] ---
    Naruto!
[13:32] ---
    I want to fight you, too.
[13:35] ---
    Huh?!
[13:44] ---
    What Orochimaru said
    is sitting on my mind.
[13:47] ---
    I will let Sasuke do the test...
[13:50] ---
    – and see how things go.
    – Wha--?!
[13:51] ---
    L-Lord Hokage…!
[13:53] ---
    However, if the Curse Mark opens
[13:56] ---
    and the power gets even a little bit
    out of control,
[13:59] ---
    get in there and stop it.
[14:01] ---
    All right.
[14:02] ---
    But...!
[14:05] ---
    I understand.
[14:13] ---
    Now then, we will begin the preliminaries.
[14:18] ---
    The preliminaries to come
    will be one-on-one individual battles.
[14:22] ---
    In other words,
    actual battle format.
[14:27] ---
    There are now exactly twenty people,
    so we will conduct ten battles.
[14:32] ---
    The winners will be able to
    advance to the third exam.
[14:37] ---
    There are no rules at all.
[14:39] ---
    You will fight until someone dies,
     collapses…or admits defeat.
[14:47] ---
    And... please admit defeat right away
     if you don’t want to die.
[14:52] ---
    However, in case I judge
    that a match is over…
[14:58] ---
    err... I don’t want to needlessly increase
    dead bodies,
[15:02] ---
    so I will intervene and stop the match
    or something to that effect.
[15:05] ---
    What holds the key to your destinies is…
[15:11] ---
    Open it.
[15:22] ---
    This.
[15:24] ---
    The names of two foes will be
    randomly selected and
[15:29] ---
    displayed on this electronic signboard.
[15:34] ---
    Now then, let’s get right down to it
[15:36] ---
    and announce the two names
    for the first battle.
[15:50] ---
    Yoroi Akado vs. Sasuke Uchiha
[15:53] ---
    To think it’d be so soon…?!
[16:01] ---
    I couldn’t ask for more.
[16:03] ---
    No way…!
[16:04] ---
    Why Sasuke?!
[16:13] ---
    Now then, the two displayed on
    the signboard, come forward.
[16:23] ---
    For the 1st battle, Yoroi Akado and
    Sasuke Uchiha have been selected.
[16:29] ---
    No objections, right?
[16:32] ---
    – Right. – No!
[16:44] ---
    All I can do now is watch…
[16:48] ---
    Sasuke…
[16:50] ---
    Sasuke!
[16:52] ---
    If you want to fight me, don’t lose!
[16:56] ---
    Sasuke… You’re acting strange…
[17:01] ---
    Is it because of the Curse Mark…?
[17:03] ---
    Sasuke, do your best!
[17:06] ---
    I guess I’ll wait and see…
[17:12] ---
    The pain won’t go away!
[17:16] ---
    It appears the Curse Mark hurts.
[17:18] ---
    Now then, we will begin the first battle.
[17:25] ---
    Everyone other than the two foes,
    please move to the upper area.
[17:42] ---
    Hey! Kakashi Sensei!
[17:46] ---
    Sasuke!
[17:47] ---
    Huh?
[17:50] ---
    Don’t use the Sharingan.
[17:54] ---
    So you knew?
[17:56] ---
    If that Curse Mark on your neck
    gets out of control,
[17:59] ---
    it could endanger your life.
[18:03] ---
    I believe it.
[18:05] ---
    Well, the match will be
    called off at that time.
[18:09] ---
    I’ll be coming in to stop it,
    so good luck.
[18:13] ---
    Called off, you say?!
[18:17] ---
    It seems this Curse Mark thing
     is responding to my Chakra.
[18:28] ---
    This is my final Chakra…
[18:32] ---
    Sharingan!
[18:39] ---
    Sasuke, stop using the Sharingan!
[18:43] ---
    If I carelessly build up Chakra,
[18:45] ---
    it would extract my spirit energy,
[18:47] ---
    and bring out the Chakra
    inside my body to no end.
[18:53] ---
    In other words, in this match,
[18:55] ---
    I can hardly use even my regular Jutsu,
    not to mention the Sharingan!
[19:03] ---
    However... Yoroi’s ability is
     the worst for you, Sasuke.
[19:17] ---
    Now then… How will I go…?
[19:31] ---
    Don’t act rashly…Sasuke.
[19:35] ---
    Now then, please begin.
[19:38] ---
    Let’s go!
[19:40] ---
    Yeah!
[19:58] ---
    Oh no!
[20:11] ---
    He did it!
[20:20] ---
    My strength…?!
[20:34] ---
    W-What is this?
[20:35] ---
    My body strength has suddenly…!
[20:41] ---
    Sasuke!
[20:58] ---
    Sasuke…!
[21:00] ---
    You…my Chakra…
[21:05] ---
    You just noticed now…?
[21:19] ---
    Hey, can you hear it?
[21:23] ---
    The clear, blue sky goes on and on
[21:33] ---
    The ocean spans limitlessly
[21:42] ---
    Please keep that smile on your face forever
[21:51] ---
    Or else I’ll cry
[21:56] ---
    You won't have to search around you
[22:00] ---
    It’s all ok now.
[22:04] ---
    Everyone is inside
    this hand
[22:13] ---
    when you want to cry, and you want to run away
[22:18] ---
    When you forget what happiness is
[22:23] ---
    Just sing.
[22:27] ---
    Light is born, and darkness was born
[22:32] ---
    The two are one
[22:34] ---
    Harmonia, feel the telepathy
[22:41] ---
    Hey, can you hear it?
[22:51] ---
    Dang it!
    The pain won't go away!
[22:54] ---
    This darned Curse Mark is
    responding all the time!
[22:58] ---
    But I won't let this
    exam get called off!
[23:01] ---
    How will I do?
    How should I fight?
[23:04] ---
    Am I strong?
[23:06] ---
    All I want is the answer to that.
[23:08] ---
    I won't let this thing swallow me up
    in a place like this!

[00:06] ---
    Press down hard on the gas
[00:09] ---
    That’s right, there’s no compromise
[00:13] ---
    We'll slip through the night
[00:17] ---
    At the final moment push hard
[00:20] ---
    That's right, all the way to zero,
[00:24] ---
    Until we wipe away the days
[00:29] ---
    Gently open your heart
[00:35] ---
    If you pull it close to you
[00:40] ---
    It will reach you, without a doubt
[00:43] ---
    It will come, closer
[00:45] ---
    Now
[00:55] ---
    We’re speeding through life,
    squeezing it for all of its worth
[01:01] ---
    Our feet are tied
[01:02] ---
    But we still keep going farther
[01:06] ---
    Even if I take it back, and grasp it
[01:12] ---
    If you’re not the one
[01:13] ---
    There will be no meaning
[01:15] ---
    And so we’ll go far off into the distance.
[01:47] ---
    Tenten vs. Temari
[01:50] ---
    The fifth battle…
[01:52] ---
    Tenten, Temari…come forward!
[02:02] ---
    Seeing that made me all fired up, too!
[02:07] ---
    Now…The second one from
    the Land of Sand, huh…
[02:11] ---
    Do your best!
[02:12] ---
    – Tenten!
    – It looks like it's going to be interesting.
[02:29] ---
    Begin!
[02:30] ---
    Killer Kunoichi and a Shaky Shikamaru
[02:42] ---
    Go for it, Tenten!
[02:44] ---
    Believe in your own strength, Tenten!
[02:47] ---
    We’re behind you, Tenten!
[02:49] ---
    Knock her with all your strength!
[02:52] ---
    That’s good!
[02:53] ---
    Cheer her on more, more,
    more with passion, Lee!
[02:56] ---
    Yeah!
[02:58] ---
    These guys are noisy!
[03:08] ---
    That spacing is just what I’d expect
    from Tenten,
[03:12] ---
    not too close, not too far.
[03:14] ---
    Attacks or defense,
    she can respond to either one.
[03:18] ---
    What happened?
[03:20] ---
    Please begin.
[03:24] ---
    Are you planning to wait out and
    see how I make my move?
[03:27] ---
    Let me just tell you,
[03:28] ---
    once I start my attack
    you’ll be over in a second.
[03:34] ---
    You’re trying to be cool and
    see what I do first…
[03:37] ---
    A hundred years too early!
[03:39] ---
    It doesn’t matter to me, come first.
[03:42] ---
    You said it…
[03:44] ---
    Well, I won’t hold back.
[03:52] ---
    They missed?
[03:53] ---
    That’s impossible!
[03:55] ---
    What happened?
    ls that a warm-up?
[03:58] ---
    Or are you scared and your aim is off?
[04:02] ---
    I thought I would enjoy it
    a little bit more,
[04:05] ---
    but evidently it’s not promising.
[04:09] ---
    No way!
[04:11] ---
    I can’t believe Tenten’s attack missed!
[04:13] ---
    It’s unbelievable indeed.
[04:15] ---
    Tenten’s weapons...
[04:18] ---
    always hits the mark
    ten out of ten times.
[04:20] ---
    There no reason for them to miss.
[04:22] ---
    That’s right...
    She didn’t miss.
[04:26] ---
    She was made to miss.
[04:29] ---
    As always, she’s being disagreeable.
[04:32] ---
    How foolish…
[04:34] ---
    How disgraceful!
[04:37] ---
    Huh?
[04:38] ---
    Sand wins again.
[04:39] ---
    We don’t know that yet.
[04:43] ---
    We know.
[04:44] ---
    How? How do we know?
[04:47] ---
    Explain it so I understand!
[04:50] ---
    Stupid... As if I'd do
    such a bothersome thing.
[04:56] ---
    Shikamaru said it so,
    surely that’s how it is.
[05:00] ---
    These guys are hard to understand.
[05:07] ---
    Calm down…
[05:09] ---
    Don’t let her get to you…
[05:12] ---
    One.
[05:14] ---
    Two.
[05:16] ---
    Three…
[05:19] ---
    If it’s gonna get dodged,
[05:21] ---
    I just have to make
    it impossible to!
[05:25] ---
    So she’s measuring the spacing,
    next one is going to be the big attack.
[05:30] ---
    I get it…
[05:31] ---
    So, that fan is the secret.
[05:34] ---
    If so…
[05:44] ---
    How about…this?!
[06:06] ---
    No way!
[06:07] ---
    My flying weapons!
[06:10] ---
    Is there a secret mechanism
    in the fan…?
[06:14] ---
    This is…
[06:15] ---
    the first star.
[06:17] ---
    There are two more.
[06:19] ---
    When the third star appears,
[06:22] ---
    you will lose.
[06:28] ---
    Tenten!
[06:29] ---
    Don’t be taken in by
    your opponent, be calm!
[06:33] ---
    Be calm!
[06:36] ---
    I know…
[06:37] ---
    Lee, I really intended to use
    this in the main battle,
[06:40] ---
    not the preliminary round--
[06:43] ---
    but it looks like I can’t do it that way.
[06:51] ---
    She’s already going to use it?
[06:56] ---
    Pulling out two scrolls?
[06:58] ---
    What does she intend to do?
[07:07] ---
    Hah! No matter what you do,
    it won’t work.
[07:15] ---
    Rising Twin Dragons!
[07:38] ---
    Even if you increase the amount,
    it’s still the same!
[07:43] ---
    Second star!
[07:52] ---
    I’m not done yet!
[08:12] ---
    Did I do it?
[08:29] ---
    Third star.
[08:37] ---
    She disappeared!
[08:40] ---
    Where is she?
[08:43] ---
    I’m over here!
[08:45] ---
    Darn--!
[09:02] ---
    Ninja Art!
[09:05] ---
    Wind Scythe Jutsu!
[09:09] ---
    Tenten!
[09:22] ---
    Chakra is enfolded in that wind.
[09:25] ---
    Huh?!
[09:26] ---
    Tenten fought well…
[09:28] ---
    But she won’t be able to escape from
    that twister.
[09:41] ---
    T-That’s awful.
[09:45] ---
    Tenten…!
[09:47] ---
    How boring... really.
[09:52] ---
    To think she completely intercepted
    Tenten’s weapon attacks.
[09:56] ---
    This is ridiculous!
[09:58] ---
    What’s going on with her…?
[10:01] ---
    It’s just like Shikamaru said,
    it’s the Sand’s win.
[10:05] ---
    That’s why I said it.
[10:08] ---
    There’s no reason for us to lose here.
[10:13] ---
    The Land of Sand is to be feared…
[10:19] ---
    Temari wins the fifth battle.
[10:24] ---
    Oh no!
[10:41] ---
    Nice catch.
[10:43] ---
    What are you doing?!
[10:45] ---
    Is that something you do to
    an opponent who fought to the utmost?!
[10:50] ---
    You’re annoying!
[10:51] ---
    Take that trash away already!
[10:54] ---
    Stop! Lee!
[10:56] ---
    Leaf Hurricane!
[10:59] ---
    What?!
[11:00] ---
    You’re just like you look…
[11:02] ---
    You’re dull too.
[11:04] ---
    What did you say?!
[11:07] ---
    Stop! Lee!
[11:09] ---
    Guy Sensei!
[11:11] ---
    Temari.
[11:13] ---
    Come up quick, you’ve been
    declared the winner.
[11:17] ---
    Don’t keep company with that awful-looking
    guy and his chaperone forever.
[11:22] ---
    What…?!
[11:33] ---
    That’s enough, Lee.
[11:40] ---
    Gentlemen of Sand…
[11:42] ---
    I wonder if I may give you
    a word of warning.
[11:47] ---
    This kid is strong.
[11:49] ---
    You should prepare yourselves.
[11:54] ---
    Picking a fight with the Sand…
[11:58] ---
    I absolutely wouldn't want to
    do it with those guys.
[12:03] ---
    T-They’re all awesome guys…
[12:11] ---
    Don’t lose to those guys!
[12:13] ---
    Naruto!
[12:15] ---
    S-Sakura.
[12:16] ---
    Sakura… Are you okay already?
[12:20] ---
    Never mind that,
    you should worry about yourself!
[12:23] ---
    Huh? Me? I don’t have
    an injury or anything.
[12:27] ---
    That’s not what I mean.
[12:29] ---
    If you lose here, it’s a point of dishonor.
[12:32] ---
    You’d be ashamed to face Sasuke!
[12:34] ---
    Y- Yeah.
[12:37] ---
    And…
[12:39] ---
    Thanks for earlier…
[12:41] ---
    No!
[12:43] ---
    Sakura!
[12:46] ---
    You did your hardest
    to get here!
[12:48] ---
    You’ll disgrace women if
    you lose to that Sasuke-obsessed girl!
[12:53] ---
    If it weren’t for your stupid cheering
    at that time…
[12:57] ---
    I would have been soundly
    beaten by Ino.
[13:01] ---
    Yeah, that's right.
[13:03] ---
    Y-You!
[13:08] ---
    Okay, hurry hurry! Me next!
[13:12] ---
    Next! Next is my turn!
[13:14] ---
    Shikamaru Nara vs. Tsuchi Kin
[13:16] ---
    Darn!
[13:19] ---
    It’s me.
[13:20] ---
    Shikamaru, don’t lose!
[13:24] ---
    – Show us that you’re a real man!
    – All right, all right.
[13:26] ---
    Get her with the 16 combo, go!
[13:29] ---
    – Win Shikamaru!
    – Ino’s become super energetic.
[13:32] ---
    You go for it!
[13:35] ---
    That guy manipulates shadows.
[13:38] ---
    Be careful of the shadows…
[13:42] ---
    I won’t be beaten by
    a stupid technique like that.
[13:50] ---
    Shikamaru!
[13:51] ---
    Bash that one around!
    And while you're at it...
[13:54] ---
    Man, what a pain.
[13:56] ---
    Furthermore, my opponent is a woman…
    lt's hard to get to it.
[14:00] ---
    If that’s what you think,
    I’ll end this quickly.
[14:02] ---
    Go, go! Shikamaru!
[14:04] ---
    Well, you could say that
    I know these guys’ raw power
[14:08] ---
    from that incident from the second test…
[14:13] ---
    I don’t know anything about this one’s Jutsu.
[14:19] ---
    On top of that, she’s seen my Jutsu…
[14:23] ---
    – The sixth battle.
    – That being said, for me…
[14:26] ---
    Shikamaru versus Kin!
[14:28] ---
    Begin!
[14:30] ---
    I can only do this.
[14:32] ---
    One trick pony, huh…?
[14:34] ---
    Shut up!
[14:36] ---
    Ninja Art, Shadow Possession Jutsu!
[14:39] ---
    That Jutsu!
[14:40] ---
    It’s nothing if I just pay attention
    to the movement of your shadow!
[14:51] ---
    Bells…?
[14:53] ---
    Heh, that’s a classic.
[14:56] ---
    Next, you’ll throw Senbons with bells
[14:58] ---
    and Senbons without bells
    at the same time, right?
[15:02] ---
    I’ll respond to the sound of the bells,
    intending to dodge them.
[15:07] ---
    But I won't notice the quiet Senbons,
    and, ouch.
[15:12] ---
    Is that right?
[15:13] ---
    You’re a chatty guy!
[15:15] ---
    So in order to not get caught
    by the shadow Senbons…
[15:18] ---
    I'm alert to the trick
    and look closely…
[15:22] ---
    What?!
[15:23] ---
    Behind?!
[15:29] ---
    String?
[15:32] ---
    Darn it!
[15:32] ---
    Too late!
[15:35] ---
    Shikamaru!
[15:36] ---
    He took that pretty bad.
[15:38] ---
    It wasn’t tat bad, look closely.
[15:41] ---
    Huh?
[15:41] ---
    F-For the moment I dodged a fatal hit.
[15:46] ---
    Now it’s my turn!
[15:48] ---
    That’s not going to happen.
[15:59] ---
    W-What’s this?
[16:08] ---
    That happens to anyone
    who hears my bell.
[16:13] ---
    The sound vibration of
    this special bell
[16:16] ---
    reaches the brain directly
    from the ear drum.
[16:20] ---
    And then it will make you hallucinate.
[16:26] ---
    It’s useless!
[16:27] ---
    You can’t avoid the sound of
    my bell by doing...
[16:30] ---
    that... that... that... that... that...
[16:34] ---
    Shoot! Which one?
    Which is the real one?
[16:39] ---
    You can’t do anything, can you?
[16:41] ---
    Your shadow, which was your faint hope,
    doesn’t even know where to stretch to…
[16:49] ---
    Well… I’ll cook you slowly.
[16:55] ---
    Taking me lightly…!
[17:02] ---
    This time it’s five,
    next time seven…
[17:06] ---
    I’ll continue until you become
    a hedgehog.
[17:10] ---
    Y-You’re lying, you brat!
[17:12] ---
    Huh?!
[17:13] ---
    You’d end it soon…
[17:15] ---
    That’s what you said
    in the beginning, isn’t it?
[17:17] ---
    I see, you can’t endure the pain
    and want to be eased.
[17:23] ---
    Well, I’ll finish it here.
[17:27] ---
    It’s your death warrant.
[17:33] ---
    W-What?!
[17:36] ---
    M-My body…
[17:40] ---
    At last, Shadow Possession Jutsu
    is a success.
[17:44] ---
    W-What are you saying?
[17:46] ---
    No way!
    Your shadow isn’t anywhere...
[17:50] ---
    You don’t realize it yet?
[17:53] ---
    I-It can’t be…
[17:55] ---
    It's just that, you fool!
[17:58] ---
    A thread at this height
    can’t have a shadow.
[18:03] ---
    I can stretch and shrink
    my own shadow.
[18:08] ---
    The shadow is gradually getting thicker.
[18:11] ---
    This wasn’t the shadow of the thread…
[18:13] ---
    That's right. I stretched my shadow
    and made it narrow,
[18:16] ---
    so it looked like the shadow of
    a thread and stuck it on you.
[18:23] ---
    But… How do you win with that?
[18:27] ---
    I’m just gonna move
    the same way as you.
[18:29] ---
    Annoying.
[18:31] ---
    Be quiet and watch.
[18:39] ---
    Stupid!
[18:40] ---
    If you continue like this and attack…
[18:43] ---
    You, too, will be wounded!
[18:46] ---
    I know that.
[18:49] ---
    No way! You're...!
[18:51] ---
    We’re gonna throw shuriken
    at each other.
[18:53] ---
    How far will we go…?
[18:54] ---
    Fool, stop it!
[19:02] ---
    You're only talk...
[19:06] ---
    And that one's a goner.
[19:09] ---
    If you’re a shinobi,
[19:10] ---
    you have to grasp the situation
    and the layout when you battle.
[19:14] ---
    Even though we made
    the same movements…
[19:16] ---
    the distance of the walls behind
    each of us was different.
[19:22] ---
    I just used the shuriken and
[19:24] ---
    called attention away
    from the wall behind us.
[19:28] ---
    Winner! Shikamaru Nara.
[19:31] ---
    Good job Shikamaru!
[19:33] ---
    Cool!
[19:34] ---
    Me next…
[19:35] ---
    Me next… Me next…!
[19:38] ---
    That guy’s dull and plain,
    but that was kinda cool.
[19:43] ---
    Shoot!
[19:44] ---
    I’m the only one left.
[19:48] ---
    And the next match.
[19:50] ---
    The people left are one Sound ninja,
[19:53] ---
    me, Hinata, Naruto, Choji, Neji and Lee.
[19:57] ---
    And that Sand guy…
[19:59] ---
    Just please spare me from that guy.
[20:03] ---
    This year’s rookie looks quite challenging…
[20:19] ---
    Naruto Uzumaki vs. Kiba Inuzuka
[20:22] ---
    It’s here, it’s here, it’s here!
[20:25] ---
    What we’ve been waiting for!
[20:26] ---
    It’s finally my turn!
[20:29] ---
    Yeah! Lucky us!
[20:32] ---
    If it’s this guy
    we’ll absolutely win, Akamaru!
[20:36] ---
    Yahoo!
[20:38] ---
    – If I’m not next, Sakura will despise me...
    – I'm gonna do it!
[20:40] ---
    – and call me Bushy Brow.
    – I'm gonna go for it!
[20:42] ---
    – If I’m not next. Sakura will...
    – Just watch me! Yay!
[20:46] ---
    This Lee kid, he’s just like
    Guy was in the past…
[20:56] ---
    Do your best, Naruto.
[20:58] ---
    Leave it to me.
[21:01] ---
    Well Naruto, show us…
[21:04] ---
    how much you’ve grown.
[21:09] ---
    I’m going to do it!
[21:19] ---
    Hey, can you hear it?
[21:24] ---
    The clear, blue sky goes on and on
[21:33] ---
    The ocean spans limitlessly
[21:42] ---
    Please keep that smile on your face forever
[21:52] ---
    Or else I’ll cry
[21:57] ---
    You won't have to search around you
[22:01] ---
    It’s all ok now.
[22:05] ---
    Everyone is inside
    this hand
[22:14] ---
    when you want to cry,
    and you want to run away
[22:19] ---
    When you forget what happiness is
[22:24] ---
    Just sing.
[22:28] ---
    Light is born, and darkness was born
[22:33] ---
    The two are one
[22:35] ---
    Harmonia, feel the telepathy
[22:42] ---
    Hey, can you hear it?
[22:52] ---
    Darn that Kiba!
[22:54] ---
    I hold back a little bit and
    he rides my brain.
[22:57] ---
    Yap, yap, yap, yap,
    it’s annoying! Believe it!
[22:58] ---
    Just quit talking tough, and use your dog
    or whatever, and come at me!
[23:01] ---
    I don’t know what kind of
    training you’ve done,
[23:04] ---
    but I’m the man who’s going
    to become Hokage.
[23:07] ---
    You’re the one who’s going
    to get his butt kicked.
[23:11] ---
    Next time: “Akamaru Unleashed!
    Who’s Top Dog Now?”
[23:15] ---
    Don’t take me lightly!

    Press down hard on the gas
[00:09] ---
    That’s right, there’s no compromise
[00:13] ---
    We'll slip through the night
[00:17] ---
    At the final moment push hard
[00:20] ---
    That's right, all the way to zero,
[00:24] ---
    Until we wipe away the days
[00:29] ---
    Gently open your heart
[00:35] ---
    If you pull it close to you
[00:40] ---
    It will reach you, without a doubt
[00:43] ---
    It will come, closer
[00:44] ---
    Now
[00:55] ---
    We’re speeding through life,
    squeezing it for all of its worth
[01:01] ---
    Our feet are tied
[01:02] ---
    But we still keep going farther
[01:06] ---
    Even if I take it back, and grasp it
[01:11] ---
    If you’re not the one
[01:13] ---
    There will be no meaning
[01:14] ---
    And so we’ll go far off into the distance.
[01:50] ---
    I’m going to be Hokage!
[01:53] ---
    I won’t lose here!
[01:57] ---
    Whatever! You can’t keep up
    with my speed at all!
[02:03] ---
    U-!
[02:08] ---
    Zu-! Ma-! Ki-!
[02:14] ---
    Naruto Barrage!
[02:35] ---
    The winner is Naruto Uzumaki.
[02:40] ---
    I’m…getting stronger!
[02:44] ---
    Ohhhh!
[02:47] ---
    Cha!
[02:48] ---
    Nice one! You did it!
[02:52] ---
    T-That Naruto beat Kiba!
[02:55] ---
    It’s a major upset…
[02:57] ---
    Yup!
[03:00] ---
    Yes!
[03:02] ---
    Byakugan Battle: Hinata Grows Bold!
[03:12] ---
    This medicine works really well!
[03:17] ---
    Here! Do you want to
    use it too, Sakura?
[03:22] ---
    Only your wounds heal
    with such speed…Naruto.
[03:27] ---
    The power of Nine Tail never
    cease to amaze me.
[03:44] ---
    U-Umm...
[03:55] ---
    T-This is…
[03:57] ---
    ointment for your wound,
[03:59] ---
    for you Kiba and Akamaru.
[04:04] ---
    Rather than worrying about others,
[04:05] ---
    it’s about time you worried
    about yourself!
[04:08] ---
    Kiba…
[04:10] ---
    There are only 6 people left…
[04:12] ---
    you, Choji, Neji, Lee, one Sound guy,
    and the Sand guy.
[04:19] ---
    Listen, Hinata…
[04:23] ---
    If you pull that guy from Sand,
    withdraw quickly.
[04:27] ---
    And there’s one more…
[04:29] ---
    Do the same if you get Neji, too.
[04:32] ---
    Withdraw quickly…
[04:34] ---
    That guy will be hard on you.
[04:36] ---
    He will destroy you.
[04:39] ---
    Well, let’s announce the next match.
[04:42] ---
    – Huh? – Huh?
[04:43] ---
    – What? – Huh?
[04:50] ---
    Hinata Hyuga vs. Neji Hyuga
[04:56] ---
    Hinata…
[04:58] ---
    This is going to be an interesting match…
[05:18] ---
    I never thought that I would
    have a fight with you…
[05:22] ---
    Lady Hinata.
[05:23] ---
    Brother Neji…
[05:25] ---
    Brother?
[05:26] ---
    Huh?!
[05:27] ---
    Those two are siblings?
[05:35] ---
    They’re descended from
[05:36] ---
    one of the most honorable
    old families in the Hidden Leaf…
[05:39] ---
    The Hyuga Clan.
[05:42] ---
    But, they’re not siblings.
[05:44] ---
    Then, how are they related?
[05:50] ---
    Well, the relation of a head family
    and branch family…
[05:53] ---
    That may be an appropriate
    way to say it.
[05:56] ---
    Head family and branch family?
[05:58] ---
    Yes!
[06:00] ---
    Hinata is from the head family.
[06:02] ---
    In other words, a person from
    the main household
[06:04] ---
    and Neji is from a branch family
    that is descended from that family.
[06:08] ---
    In other words,
    it’s a fight between relatives.
[06:11] ---
    It must be uneasy for both of them…
[06:14] ---
    Yes.
[06:15] ---
    However…
[06:16] ---
    Huh? What is it?
[06:19] ---
    I’ve heard that from long ago,
[06:20] ---
    there’ve been various incidents between
    the head family and branch family,
[06:22] ---
    and now their relationship
    isn’t on very good terms.
[06:26] ---
    Hmmm.
[06:27] ---
    Why?
[06:28] ---
    I don’t know the details either.
[06:31] ---
    Only…
[06:32] ---
    The so-called distinguished Ninja clans
    like Uchiha and Hyuga
[06:37] ---
    have special techniques and
    abilities that run in the family.
[06:40] ---
    It seems that the Hyuga household
    laid down rules
[06:43] ---
    for communicating those techniques…
[06:46] ---
    It seems that there are many rules
    that favor the head family…
[06:49] ---
    – Huh? – Huh?
[06:51] ---
    And there have been
    various incidents
[06:52] ---
    between the head family and
    branch family due to those rules.
[06:58] ---
    So this is a confrontation billed
    as a clash of fate…
[07:08] ---
    Oh, it’s gonna begin.
[07:11] ---
    Start the battle please!
[07:16] ---
    Just one thing before we square off
    against each other in the fight…
[07:19] ---
    I should advise you, Lady Hinata.
[07:23] ---
    Withdraw!
[07:24] ---
    You’re not suited to being a Shinobi.
[07:30] ---
    You’re too nice.
[07:33] ---
    You wish for harmony and
    avoid conflict,
[07:36] ---
    you’re open to going with
    the thinking of others.
[07:40] ---
    And, you have no confidence
    in yourself.
[07:44] ---
    You’re always feeling inferior…
[07:46] ---
    You thought it’s a good idea
    to stay Genin.
[07:50] ---
    However, you can’t register for
    the Chunin test without three members…
[07:54] ---
    So you couldn’t turn down when Kiba
    and the other proposed it and,
[07:57] ---
    the truth is, you entered
    the exam reluctantly.
[08:01] ---
    Is that wrong?!
[08:03] ---
    T-That’s wrong…
[08:04] ---
    That’s not true…
[08:06] ---
    I…
[08:07] ---
    I only…
[08:10] ---
    I wanted to change that about myself…
[08:12] ---
    So I proposed it myself…
[08:20] ---
    Hinata…
[08:31] ---
    Stand up, Hanabi!
[08:38] ---
    From now on, I’ll keep Hinata
    under my wing…
[08:41] ---
    But is that really okay?
[08:46] ---
    Hinata should be the heir to
    the Hyuga clan…
[08:50] ---
    But, there is always death involved
    with the job of Genin.
[08:55] ---
    Do what you want.
[08:58] ---
    She’s a failure who’s inferior even to her
    younger sister Hanabi, five years her junior.
[09:02] ---
    We don’t need her here
    in Hyuga clan…
[09:12] ---
    Is that all you have to say?
[09:15] ---
    If so, leave!
[09:17] ---
    You’re in the way!
[09:18] ---
    Yes.
[09:31] ---
    Hinata is trying to change
    herself in her own way.
[09:45] ---
    Lady Hinata…
[09:47] ---
    You are a spoiled one of
    the head family.
[09:51] ---
    People can never change!
[09:55] ---
    A failure will always be a failure…
[09:58] ---
    That personality and strength
    won’t change.
[10:06] ---
    That guy…
[10:13] ---
    Since people don’t change,
    differences exist among them…
[10:17] ---
    and expressions like “elite”
    and “failure” are born.
[10:21] ---
    Everyone judges and are judged
[10:23] ---
    based on the value of their face and
    brain, ability and body type,
[10:25] ---
    good and bad points of
    their personalities.
[10:29] ---
    People have to suffer and live
[10:32] ---
    within the means of the
    elements they cannot change.
[10:38] ---
    Just like the fact that I’m from a
    branch family
[10:39] ---
    and you’re from the head family,
[10:41] ---
    these things can’t change.
[10:46] ---
    I’ve seen everything with
    this Byakugan.
[10:50] ---
    That’s why I understand!
[10:52] ---
    You’re just talking tough.
[10:54] ---
    You’re really thinking that you’d
    like to run away from this place…
[10:59] ---
    T-That’s wrong…
[11:01] ---
    I really…
[11:02] ---
    Byakugan?
[11:04] ---
    It’s said that if you trace
    the Uchiha Clan’s history,
[11:07] ---
    the clan’s ability has its source
    in Hyuga clan.
[11:10] ---
    The Byakugan is one of the
    Hyuga clan’s Kekkei Genkai,
[11:16] ---
    a Visual Jutsu similar
    to Sharingan…
[11:18] ---
    However, with the ability of insight alone…
[11:22] ---
    it gets the better of Sharingan.
[11:36] ---
    Byakugan!
[11:40] ---
    Hinata Hyuga vs. Neji Hyuga
[12:32] ---
    My eyes can’t be deceived.
[12:35] ---
    Just now from my pressure,
[12:37] ---
    your line of sight was pushed
    to the upper left.
[12:42] ---
    This is the sign that you're recalling
    your past experience…
[12:46] ---
    your bitter past.
[12:49] ---
    And soon after that, your line of sight
    moved to the bottom right…
[12:53] ---
    This is the sign that you're imagining
    physical and mental suffering.
[12:59] ---
    That means…
[13:01] ---
    you’re picturing your old self,
[13:03] ---
    and from all of your experiences
    up until now,
[13:05] ---
    you’re imagining the result
    of this battle…
[13:09] ---
    The image of you losing!
[13:20] ---
    Even the act of propping your arms
    in front of your body…
[13:24] ---
    It’s a gesture that means
[13:27] ---
    you want to build a wall
    between us and keep distant.
[13:31] ---
    And that reflects your mind...
[13:32] ---
    that you don’t want any more
    of your deepest feelings to be raided…
[13:37] ---
    Because everything I’ve said
    is right on the mark, right?
[13:41] ---
    Furthermore…
[13:48] ---
    Laying a finger on your lips,
[13:49] ---
    that too, is a self-familiarizing act
    which represents a sense of panic.
[13:54] ---
    It represents a defense instinct--
[13:56] ---
    you want to alleviate the tension
    and unease.
[14:00] ---
    In other words…
[14:02] ---
    deep in your heart,
    you know it’s true, don’t you?
[14:07] ---
    Changing yourself,
    is something you absolutely can’t--!
[14:10] ---
    Sure, she can!
[14:20] ---
    You don’t have the privilege of
    deciding what a person is like, stupid!
[14:23] ---
    Give it to him, Hinata!
[14:29] ---
    Naruto…
[14:39] ---
    Hinata!
[14:41] ---
    Don’t just take it!
    Argue back!
[14:43] ---
    I’m getting irritated watching this!
[15:01] ---
    Naruto…
[15:04] ---
    What an annoying guy!
[15:12] ---
    Naruto…
[15:16] ---
    Thank you!
[15:22] ---
    The expression of her eyes
    has changed…
[15:25] ---
    So you’re not going to withdraw?
[15:27] ---
    I ‘m not taking responsibility
    for what happens!
[15:30] ---
    I…
[15:33] ---
    I won’t run away!
[15:35] ---
    I don’t…
[15:37] ---
    I don’t change my words…
[15:39] ---
    That’s my Way of Ninja!
[15:42] ---
    ...want to run anymore!
[15:45] ---
    Byakugan!
[15:57] ---
    Brother Neji!
[15:59] ---
    I challenge you!
[16:01] ---
    T-That is…
[16:13] ---
    Fine…
[16:19] ---
    Of course, the same Hyuga style…
[16:22] ---
    Her pose is very similar
    to Neji’s.
[16:24] ---
    Hyuga style?
[16:26] ---
    The strongest Taijutsu style
    in the Village Hidden in the Leaf…
[16:29] ---
    Huh?
[16:30] ---
    I said it before...
[16:33] ---
    The man who is most likely
[16:35] ---
    the strongest Genin of Hidden
    Leaf Village is on my team…
[16:39] ---
    That’s…
[16:40] ---
    That guy, Neji Hyuga.
[17:27] ---
    Here!
[17:39] ---
    Did it go in?!
[17:40] ---
    No…it was shallow!
[17:42] ---
    No. Even a graze works.
[17:46] ---
    That’s the reason that the Hyuga clan
[17:48] ---
    is called the Hidden Leaf’s
    distinguished family.
[17:50] ---
    Huh? What do you mean?
[17:53] ---
    The Hyuga has a particular
    Taijutsu passed down through generations.
[18:02] ---
    It’s not like the kind of Taijutsu that
    Lee and I are good at…
[18:04] ---
    Our way of fighting, Furious Fist,
[18:08] ---
    is mainly to inflict external damage
    on our enemy,
[18:12] ---
    like broken bones and surface wounds.
[18:15] ---
    In contrast, the Hyuga’s Taijutsu
    inflict damage
[18:17] ---
    on the Chakra Network through
    which Chakra flow through the body,
[18:19] ---
    and damaging the insides,
    namely, it destroys internal organs.
[18:24] ---
    They possess the Gentle Fist.
[18:27] ---
    It’s not spectacular to watch…
[18:29] ---
    but later it slowly takes effect.
[18:32] ---
    Well, you can’t train the internal organs…
[18:36] ---
    Even if you were really robust,
[18:38] ---
    one hit from it would be
    a deadly blow…
[18:52] ---
    Even I can…
[18:55] ---
    Hinata’s on the offensive…
[18:57] ---
    Hinata…
[19:00] ---
    Way to go, Hinata!
[19:03] ---
    To attack the Chakra Network…
[19:06] ---
    What are they, those people…?
[19:10] ---
    Hey!
[19:11] ---
    Hey!
[19:12] ---
    Chakra Network, what’s that?!
[19:14] ---
    Here we go again…
[19:15] ---
    a question from a stupid guy.
[19:18] ---
    I’ll explain.
[19:20] ---
    They’re like blood canals.
[19:21] ---
    In the same way that blood flows
    through vessels throughout the body,
[19:24] ---
    They’re bundles of canals that take
    Chakra’s into every corner of your body…
[19:30] ---
    Oh!
[19:31] ---
    Like a path for Chakras, huh?
[19:34] ---
    Yes…
[19:35] ---
    Furthermore, the Chakra Network
    is closely connected
[19:37] ---
    with the internal organs which
    enfold Chakra within the body.
[19:42] ---
    That’s why if
    the Chakra Network is attacked
[19:44] ---
    the internal organs also suffer damage.
[19:47] ---
    Huh, you know a lot, don’t 'ya?
[19:50] ---
    Hey you!
    That's no way to talk to your senior!
[20:03] ---
    It’s no wonder…
[20:05] ---
    Lee’s greatest long-standing enemy.
[20:08] ---
    That’s…
[20:09] ---
    him.
[20:12] ---
    Sensei…
[20:13] ---
    But, how can they do that?
[20:16] ---
    After all, the Chakra Network
    isn’t visible to the eyes.
[20:19] ---
    How do they attack the Chakra
    line inside the body?
[20:24] ---
    No.
[20:25] ---
    The eyes of those two…
[20:27] ---
    They can see it with
    their Byakugan.
[20:36] ---
    And a Gentle Fist attack is a little
    different from a regular attack.
[20:41] ---
    They release their own Chakra
[20:43] ---
    from a Chakra opening in their hand
    and screw it into their opponent’s body.
[20:48] ---
    It directly inflicts damage on
    your enemy’s Chakra Network.
[20:54] ---
    All right!
[20:58] ---
    Has she done it?
[21:21] ---
    Hey, can you hear it?
[21:25] ---
    The clear, blue sky goes on and on
[21:35] ---
    The ocean spans limitlessly
[21:44] ---
    Please keep that smile on your face forever
[21:53] ---
    Or else I’ll cry
[21:58] ---
    You won't have to search around you
[22:03] ---
    It’s all ok now.
[22:07] ---
    Everyone is inside
    this hand
[22:15] ---
    when you want to cry,
    and you want to run away

    When you forget what happiness is
[22:25] ---

    The two are one

    Harmonia, feel the telepathy
[22:43] ---
    Hey, can you hear it?
[22:54] ---
    Amazing!
[22:55] ---
    That Hinata!
[22:56] ---
    She’s always melancholy
    and wishy-washy and…
[22:58] ---
    I thought she is kinda weird, yet…
[23:00] ---
    Even when she gets blow after blow,
    she gets back up and goes.
[23:03] ---
    There’s something about
    her way of fighting.
[23:05] ---
    Just a feeling,
    but she resembles you, I think.
[23:06] ---
    Resembles me?
    Hinata resembles me?
[23:09] ---
    Now that I think about it, that girl,
    she was always watching you.
[23:12] ---
    Huh?

    Press down hard on the gas
[00:09] ---
    That’s right, there’s no compromise
[00:13] ---
    We'll slip through the night
[00:17] ---
    At the final moment push hard
[00:20] ---
    That's right, all the way to zero,
[00:24] ---
    Until we wipe away the days
[00:29] ---
    Gently open your heart
[00:35] ---
    If you pull it close to you
[00:40] ---
    It will reach you, without a doubt
[00:43] ---
    It will come, closer
[00:44] ---
    Now
[00:55] ---
    We’re speeding through life,
    squeezing it for all of its worth
[01:01] ---
    Our feet are tied
[01:02] ---
    But we still keep going farther
[01:06] ---
    Even if I take it back, and grasp it
[01:11] ---
    If you’re not the one
[01:13] ---
    There will be no meaning
[01:14] ---
    And so we’ll go far off into the distance.
[01:44] ---
    What?!
[01:47] ---
    O-Oh!
[01:50] ---
    T-That’s…
[01:53] ---
    It's the empty shell of sand!
[01:58] ---
    Lee's Hidden Strength:
    Forbidden Secret Jutsu!
[02:05] ---
    When did that…?!
[02:06] ---
    That’s not possible!
[02:08] ---
    While you had your eyes closed
    and were praying.
[02:11] ---
    What?
[02:12] ---
    For a moment, Lee stopped moving
    because of the pain in his body.
[02:17] ---
    At that moment…that’s when!
[02:29] ---
    Gaara!
[02:46] ---
    That's...!
[02:47] ---
    There’s no doubt about it – his eyes…
[02:50] ---
    He’s completely awake…
[02:53] ---
    The demon…inside him.
[03:20] ---
    Run away!
[03:33] ---
    That Bowl-Cut’s totally worn down…
[03:37] ---
    Gaara is toying with him.
[03:41] ---
    W-Why doesn’t Lee dodge?
[03:45] ---
    With Lee’s speed, he should easily be
    able to dodge that level of attack.
[03:51] ---
    It’s not that he doesn’t dodge,
    it’s that he can’t dodge.
[03:55] ---
    What?!
[03:55] ---
    What do you mean?
[03:57] ---
    The Lotus is a double-edged sword.
[04:01] ---
    What do you mean double-edged sword?
[04:03] ---
    Why do you think the Lotus is
    a forbidden technique?
[04:08] ---
    Well…
[04:10] ---
    The Lotus isn’t a Ninjutsu or a Genjutsu.
[04:13] ---
    It’s a Taijutsu, with that much
    high-speed movement.
[04:17] ---
    The load it puts on a person’s body
    is beyond imagination.
[04:20] ---
    So Lee’s entire body is in
    so much pain right now
[04:22] ---
    that even moving is out of the question.
[04:25] ---
    Isn’t that so…
[04:26] ---
    Guy?
[04:28] ---
    But that’s…!
[04:59] ---
    He has no Ninjutsu, not even
    one Genjutsu …
[05:02] ---
    Moreover, the Taijutsu he depends on,
[05:04] ---
    it’s now even less than
    an average person’s …
[05:06] ---
    There’s no way he can win!
[05:08] ---
    He’s had it if this goes on…
[05:15] ---
    Lee…
[05:22] ---
    Hey, get a move on all of you.
[05:25] ---
    I’ll add another 200 laps!
[05:29] ---
    Stupid! There’s no way
    you’ll become a Ninja.
[05:34] ---
    Yes, I will.
[05:35] ---
    There’s no way a chump who can’t
    even use Ninjutsu can become a Ninja!
[05:39] ---
    Yes, I will!
[05:40] ---
    Whatever, but the fact that a guy like
    you without Ninjutsu or Genjutsu
[05:43] ---
    and with less Taijutsu than
    an average person
[05:45] ---
    is in this Ninja academy is nonsense.
[05:48] ---
    Do you know what you’re called here?
[05:52] ---
    Hot-Blooded!
[05:54] ---
    Hot-Blooded!
[05:56] ---
    Hot-Blooded lose-
[05:58] ---
    Hey, get in line, Lee!
[06:00] ---
    Hey Lee!
[06:03] ---
    So that’s the hot-blooded loser
    everyone’s talking about.
[06:07] ---
    Doesn’t he look like
    someone we know?
[06:10] ---
    Huh?
[06:11] ---
    In particular…his eyebrows.
[06:14] ---
    Hmm…
[06:15] ---
    Rock Lee…
[06:17] ---
    The chump who can only perform
    less than average Taijutsu…
[06:27] ---
    But you...
[06:29] ---
    You practiced your less
    than average Taijutsu …
[06:32] ---
    You practiced it over and
    over again like crazy…
[06:34] ---
    396…397…398…399…
[06:39] ---
    400…401…402…403…
[06:44] ---
    If I can’t do a log kick 500 times,
    then it’s 1,000 squats!
[06:49] ---
    413... 414...
[06:52] ---
    415... 416... 417... 418...!
[06:58] ---
    419... 420…
[07:00] ---
    So someone’s here before me…
[07:02] ---
    422… 423... 424...
[07:06] ---
    425... 426...
[07:09] ---
    I suppose I’ll come back…
[07:16] ---
    If I can’t do 1,000 squats,
    then it’s 2,000 punches!
[07:22] ---
    795… 796… 797… 798…
[07:34] ---
    He’s still at it…!
[07:36] ---
    2,000 punches!
[07:38] ---
    If I can’t, it’s 2,000 jump ropes!
[07:50] ---
    You recklessly practiced only
    Taijutsu and eventually…
[07:57] ---
    All right, you’ve all become
    Genin as of today,
[08:01] ---
    so I’d like to know what
    it is you’re all aiming for!
[08:05] ---
    Yes, yes, yes, yes!
[08:07] ---
    Tenten.
[08:08] ---
    I’d like to become a powerful Ninja
    like the legendary Kunoichi Tsunade!
[08:15] ---
    Hmm...
[08:16] ---
    And, how about you, Neji?
[08:20] ---
    I don’t want to answer…
[08:23] ---
    I…!
[08:25] ---
    I’d like to prove that I could
    become a respectable Ninja
[08:28] ---
    even though I can’t use
    Ninjutsu or Genjutsu!
[08:32] ---
    That would be the ultimate for me!
[08:35] ---
    Those are good serious eyes…
[08:37] ---
    Humph!
[08:38] ---
    You!
[08:39] ---
    What’s so funny?!
[08:40] ---
    I’m serious!
[08:41] ---
    I will become a respectable Ninja
    even only with Taijutsu!
[08:47] ---
    He should give up already…
[08:50] ---
    At this rate…
[08:52] ---
    He will simply die with Gaara
    just toying with him…
[08:57] ---
    Bushy Brows…!
[09:01] ---
    Lee…
[09:21] ---
    Not yet… Not yet!
[09:23] ---
    Lee, you just won’t learn
    your lesson, will you?
[09:28] ---
    There’s no way you can win…
[09:29] ---
    Unlike you, Neji is a genius.
[09:34] ---
    A genius…?
[09:35] ---
    What is a genius?!
[09:37] ---
    Even though I may not have talent,
    I’ll exceed genius with my efforts.
[09:41] ---
    That is my entire being!
[09:44] ---
    That is my Way of the Ninja!
[09:46] ---
    You’ll get nowhere, Lee…
[09:49] ---
    No matter how much effort you make,
[09:52] ---
    there’s no way you can take me down.
[09:54] ---
    That’s simply a fact.
[09:56] ---
    That's not true!
[09:59] ---
    That’s not…
[10:11] ---
    But you…refused to give up, not ever!
[10:48] ---
    Such meaningless actions…
[10:51] ---
    The Bowl-Cut was unlucky to
    have Gaara as his opponent!
[10:56] ---
    No…
[10:57] ---
    Lee’s not one to give up
    with this much.
[11:00] ---
    – What? – Huh?
[11:02] ---
    The reason is that Lee…
[11:13] ---
    The reason is that Lee…
[11:14] ---
    You…continued to make effort.
[11:19] ---
    If I can’t jump rope 1,200 times,
    I’ll log kick 2,000 times!
[11:24] ---
    1,116... 1,117...!
[11:27] ---
    1,118... 1,11--!
[11:29] ---
    Huh?!
[11:46] ---
    Lee!
[11:47] ---
    Are you taking a break already?
[11:58] ---
    Guy Sensei…
[12:00] ---
    What is it that you want?
[12:02] ---
    If it’s about my blunder with
    the recent assignment,
[12:06] ---
    I believe I’ve apologized.
[12:08] ---
    Lee… It’s true you’re different from Neji.
[12:13] ---
    You have no Ninjutsu or Genjutsu skills,
    and you’re not a Taijutsu genius either…
[12:18] ---
    But Lee...
[12:20] ---
    you have powers
    that exceed Neji…
[12:23] ---
    you’re a genius with hidden potential.
[12:27] ---
    If you’re trying to make me feel better,
    please stop!
[12:30] ---
    Idiot!
[12:31] ---
    I’m not trying to make you feel better
    or anything!
[12:34] ---
    The reason is that you are…
[12:39] ---
    a genius of effort!
[12:45] ---
    I wonder if…
[12:48] ---
    If that’s true…?
[12:52] ---
    I've…I’ve believed that to be true…
[12:56] ---
    That if I trained harder than Neji…
    2 or 3 times as much…
[13:00] ---
    that I’d surely become stronger.
[13:03] ---
    But...
[13:05] ---
    I’ve recently begun to think that…
[13:09] ---
    I can’t beat a real genius.
[13:12] ---
    Is effort really rewarded…?
[13:16] ---
    I’ve wanted to know this and
[13:17] ---
    so I’ve taken on Neji,
    but it’s always been the same…!
[13:21] ---
    I’m no match for him at all!
[13:24] ---
    Even when I’m on a mission…
[13:27] ---
    My legs still tremble even now…
[13:30] ---
    I think that I’ll never become
    stronger though I strive and strive…
[13:36] ---
    I am so afraid that I can’t bear it!
[13:42] ---
    What am I to do…?
[13:45] ---
    There’s no point in making the effort
    if you don’t believe in yourself!
[13:55] ---
    Lee, you’re very similar to me.
[13:58] ---
    Do you mean our eyebrows?
[14:00] ---
    No, not just our eyebrows…
[14:03] ---
    I was actually a failure once too…
[14:07] ---
    You were, Sensei?
[14:09] ---
    But now, I can even win against
    the genius elite Kakashi,
[14:14] ---
    because of my efforts…
[14:16] ---
    “I’d like to prove that I can become
    a respectable Ninja
[14:19] ---
    even though I can’t use Ninjutsu
    and Genjutsu” you said.
[14:23] ---
    That’s your Ninja way, right?
[14:26] ---
    That’s a fine goal…
[14:28] ---
    It’s a fine goal worth sticking to!
[14:35] ---
    That’s why you should believe in
    your path and forge straight ahead!
[14:41] ---
    Become a man powerful enough
    so that I can just watch you smiling!
[14:47] ---
    Understand, Lee?!
[14:49] ---
    Yes!
[15:06] ---
    Thank you…Guy Sensei…!
[15:18] ---
    Stop, Lee!
[15:19] ---
    If you fight any more, you’ll die!
[15:23] ---
    Bushy Brows…
[15:33] ---
    What?!
[15:34] ---
    Movement has...
[15:35] ---
    ...returned to Lee!
[15:39] ---
    Sensei is smiling and watching me…
[15:42] ---
    And just because of that,
    I can come back stronger!
[15:47] ---
    Stronger… stronger still!
[15:51] ---
    Lee’s smiling…even though
    he’s been driven into corner.
[15:55] ---
    No.
[15:56] ---
    It’s his turn to do the driving.
[15:58] ---
    Huh?
[16:00] ---
    The Leaf’s Lotus blossoms twice.
[16:04] ---
    Blossoms twice…?
[16:07] ---
    Lee said that too!
[16:11] ---
    The Leaf’s Lotus blossoms twice.
[16:14] ---
    When we meet the next time,
    I vow that I will be an even stronger man.
[16:20] ---
    No, Guy!
[16:21] ---
    You haven’t?!
[16:24] ---
    It’s exactly as you imagine.
[16:26] ---
    So that Genin…
[16:28] ---
    that boy can open the Eight Inner Gates
    in his body and use the Hidden Lotus…
[16:33] ---
    The Hidden Lotus?
[16:36] ---
    That’s right …
[16:38] ---
    This is incredible…
[16:42] ---
    Guy…
[16:43] ---
    How many of the Eight Inner Gates
    can that boy open now…?
[16:49] ---
    Five gates.
[16:50] ---
    What exactly is it?
[16:52] ---
    These Eight Inner Gates and
    that Hidden Lotus?
[16:56] ---
    The Eight Inner Gates are
    “Limiter Releases”
[16:58] ---
    used in preparations for
    reaching the Hidden Lotus.
[17:03] ---
    A “Limiter Releases”?
[17:07] ---
    That’s right …
[17:09] ---
    In the Chakra Network
    where chakra flows,
[17:12] ---
    there are eight places where the
    chakra points are concentrated
[17:15] ---
    in each area of the body from the
    head area down--
[17:17] ---
    the Gate of Opening, Gate of Rest,
    Gate of Life, Gate of Pain,
[17:21] ---
    Gate of Closing, Gate of Joy,
    Gate of Shock and Gate of Death.
[17:27] ---
    These are called the Eight Inner Gates.
[17:30] ---
    These eight gates
    continually “limit”
[17:32] ---
    the amount of Chakra flowing
    through the body…
[17:37] ---
    However, the Lotus’s essence is to force
    the boundaries of these “limits” to open…
[17:43] ---
    and bring out several
    tens of times the body’s strength.
[17:49] ---
    The Primary Lotus…
[17:51] ---
    opens only the first gate,
    the Gate of Opening,
[17:55] ---
    and releases the brains restraints
[17:57] ---
    to bring forth a person’s muscles’ strength
    to its fullest!
[18:01] ---
    That’s the kind of technique it is.
[18:06] ---
    So…what is the Hidden Lotus?
[18:10] ---
    After forcing the stamina to increase
    at the second gate, the Gate of Rest…
[18:15] ---
    From the third gate, the Gate of Life,
    one enters the Hidden Lotus!
[18:19] ---
    No way!
[18:20] ---
    Even after using just the Primary Lotus,
    his body was in shambles.
[18:24] ---
    So if he uses a technique beyond that…
[18:26] ---
    That’s right.
[18:27] ---
    Huh?
[18:28] ---
    By opening all the 8 gates,
[18:31] ---
    one attains strength exceeding
    even the Hokage, but in return…
[18:38] ---
    one dies!
[18:41] ---
    I don’t intend to pry into what that
    boy means to you
[18:45] ---
    or to tell you not to bring
    your personal feelings into play…
[18:48] ---
    But there is a limit!
[18:50] ---
    I’ve misjudged you…Guy!
[18:53] ---
    What do you know…about that boy?!
[19:01] ---
    There is something important which
[19:04] ---
    that boy wants to prove and
    protect even if it costs him his life.
[19:09] ---
    I’d like to prove that I can become
    a respectable Ninja
[19:12] ---
    even though I can’t use
    Ninjutsu and Genjutsu!
[19:15] ---
    That would be the ultimate for me!
[19:18] ---
    That’s why I…
[19:20] ---
    wanted to make him a man
    that could protect that thing.
[19:24] ---
    That’s all there is…
[19:27] ---
    Lee!
[19:28] ---
    I’m going to teach you
    a new technique.
[19:31] ---
    Yippie, yeah!
[19:32] ---
    – One that will be your trump card.
    – Yeah, that's great!
[19:35] ---
    Yippie, yeah! Yippie yeah!
[19:37] ---
    Lee, listen to my explanation
    seriously, all right?!
[19:43] ---
    Y-Yes, Sensei!
[19:45] ---
    Let me first say that...
[19:47] ---
    this is more of a forbidden Jutsu
    than the Primary Lotus!
[19:51] ---
    And it will become the
    most special technique for you.
[19:56] ---
    Special...?
[19:58] ---
    However...
[19:59] ---
    there is one strict condition
    for using this technique.
[20:05] ---
    That is...
[20:09] ---
    That is…
[20:16] ---
    What?
[20:18] ---
    I don’t know what
    you’re planning to do…
[20:21] ---
    But this is the end for you.
[20:24] ---
    That’s true…
[20:26] ---
    In any case…
    it will be the end with the next.
[20:31] ---
    Neji…
[20:32] ---
    Sasuke…and…
[20:38] ---
    There is no way that I alone
    can lose in a place like this!
[20:44] ---
    Guy Sensei…please allow this…!
[20:49] ---
    It is now!
[21:01] ---
    The time to carry through and
    protect one’s own Way of the Ninja!
[21:06] ---
    The Third Gate of Life…open!
[21:21] ---
    Hey, can you hear it?
[21:25] ---
    The clear, blue sky goes on and on
[21:35] ---
    The ocean spans limitlessly
[21:44] ---
    Please keep that smile on your face forever
[21:53] ---
    Or else I’ll cry
[21:58] ---
    You won't have to search around you
[22:02] ---
    It’s all ok now.
[22:06] ---
    Everyone is inside
    this hand
[22:15] ---
    When you want to cry,
    and you want to run away
[22:20] ---
    When you forget what happiness is
[22:25] ---
    Just sing.
[22:29] ---
    Light is born, and darkness was born
[22:34] ---
    The two are one
[22:36] ---
    Harmonia, feel the telepathy
[22:43] ---
    Hey, can you hear it?
[22:53] ---
    Effort is always rewarded.
    My belief in this has brought me this far.
[22:58] ---
    Neji, Sasuke, and Naruto…
[23:01] ---
    There’s no way that I can lose
    in a place like this!
[23:05] ---
    Even though this technique is
    my ace in the hole,
[23:07] ---
    I’ll show it especially to you!
[23:09] ---
    This is my ultimate secret
    Taijutsu technique!

[00:06] ---
    Press down hard on the gas
[00:09] ---
    That’s right, there’s no compromise
[00:13] ---
    We'll slip through the night
[00:17] ---
    At the final moment push hard
[00:20] ---
    That's right, all the way to zero,
[00:24] ---
    Until we wipe away the days
[00:29] ---
    Gently open your heart
[00:35] ---
    If you pull it close to you
[00:40] ---
    It will reach you, without a doubt
[00:43] ---
    It will come, closer
[00:44] ---
    Now
[00:55] ---
    We’re speeding through life,
    squeezing it for all of its worth
[01:01] ---
    Our feet are tied
[01:02] ---
    But we still keep going farther
[01:06] ---
    Even if I take it back, and grasp it
[01:11] ---
    If you’re not the one
[01:13] ---
    There will be no meaning
[01:14] ---
    And so we’ll go far off into the distance.
[01:43] ---
    Now, let the tenth round begin.
[01:48] ---
    Do your best!
[01:49] ---
    Fatso!
[01:53] ---
    Damn it!
[01:54] ---
    Those two better watch out!
[01:55] ---
    I’ll end this match quickly and
    turn you into mincemeat!
[02:01] ---
    Then let's not play around...
[02:03] ---
    I’ll finish you off quickly, Mr. Fatso.
[02:07] ---
    You bandaged cucumber roll!
[02:11] ---
    I know his Achilles heel all too well
    from my last battle with him.
[02:16] ---
    Those holes in his arm emit
    a pulsing sound, so…
[02:21] ---
    Ninja Art!
[02:22] ---
    Expansion Jutsu!
[02:24] ---
    Followed by the
    Hidden Leaf-style Taijutsu!
[02:31] ---
    All I have to do is to prevent him
    from aiming at my ears!
[02:33] ---
    Human Boulder Jutsu!
[02:35] ---
    Hooray for Big-Boned!
[02:39] ---
    Good!
[02:40] ---
    Squash him, Choji!
[02:43] ---
    This guy can attack sonically without
    even touching the opponent…
[02:50] ---
    But that’s only when ears are showing!
[02:53] ---
    With Choji’s whole head buried,
    it’s like he’s wearing ear plugs.
[02:56] ---
    how does anyone make a sonic attack
    on a meat ball,
[02:58] ---
    let alone one that’s rolling?
[03:05] ---
    The way you are…
    you can barely move, can you?
[03:08] ---
    That’s where I attack!
[03:11] ---
    It’s no use, I’m wearing ear plugs.
[03:13] ---
    No, this is the end!
[03:17] ---
    Oh?!
[03:26] ---
    The human body is made up of 70% water,
    and water is able to transmit sound waves.
[03:33] ---
    In other words, your whole body is like
    one big ear.
[03:41] ---
    And the winner is, Kinuta Dosu!
[03:46] ---
    Lord Orochimaru…no, Orochimaru!
[03:51] ---
    I’ll have you know that...
    I’m more than a mere guinea pig.
[03:57] ---
    Are you all right?
[03:59] ---
    I-I want to eat meat…
[04:01] ---
    Oh man...
    And the guy went easy on him, too.
[04:04] ---
    Although he lost, the least we can
    do for him is take him for some BBQ beef.
[04:10] ---
    It’s finally over.
[04:13] ---
    At long last, the Final Round…
[04:17] ---
    With this, the preliminaries for
    the third exam is completed.
[04:22] ---
    A Shadow in Darkness:
    Danger Approaches Sasuke
[04:33] ---
    I wonder what’s happened to Naruto?
[04:37] ---
    Let’s go outside now.
[04:40] ---
    Iruka Sensei hasn’t been alert recently,
    so now’s our chance.
[04:43] ---
    Hey!
[04:44] ---
    Konohamaru!
[04:46] ---
    You intend to sneak out again, do you?
[04:49] ---
    I-I need to go to the bathroom!
[04:50] ---
    Liar!
[04:53] ---
    To everyone who has advanced to
    the Final Round
[04:56] ---
    of the third test of the Chunin Exams,
[04:58] ---
    there’s one person who’s missing,
    but, congratulations.
[05:04] ---
    Sensei…
[05:05] ---
    Hmm?
[05:07] ---
    I have a question.
[05:11] ---
    About Sasuke?
[05:13] ---
    Well, I’m sorry, but I don’t know much.
[05:17] ---
    But don’t worry too much.
[05:20] ---
    From here on, it’s up to Sasuke.
[05:26] ---
    Sakura, I have to step out
    for a moment.
[05:29] ---
    Please inquire about the
    details of the Final Round!
[05:33] ---
    Sure.
[05:38] ---
    Here, in our house,
    including Sasuke who’s not here,
[05:41] ---
    we have five Leaf,
[05:45] ---
    three Sand,
[05:48] ---
    and one Sound.
[05:51] ---
    Well, I will begin the explanation
    of the Final Round.
[05:55] ---
    Finally!
[06:04] ---
    The preliminary battles have
    ended without incident.
[06:06] ---
    It seems they’re now entering
    the Final Round.
[06:10] ---
    This land really has become
    peaceful, hasn’t it?
[06:12] ---
    This peaceful time has put
    this country in slumber...
[06:18] ---
    while all the other lands are busy racing
    to expand their military.
[06:24] ---
    Would it be possible for us
    to take it now?
[06:27] ---
    Humph, I suppose.
[06:30] ---
    Though, I don’t know how much fun
    it would be to take out that old man.
[06:35] ---
    Is that so?
[06:39] ---
    To me, it looks like you are still have
    a hesitation about it.
[06:44] ---
    From now on, the power of
    each Hidden Village will clash
[06:47] ---
    with one another in a long
    and violent manner.
[06:49] ---
    The Sound village is also one of them…
[06:52] ---
    You intend to be the trigger
    for all of that…
[06:57] ---
    And use him for a bullet.
[07:01] ---
    Our Sasuke…right?
[07:07] ---
    You guess well.
[07:09] ---
    So well that it’s a bit creepy.
[07:11] ---
    Not in the slightest.
[07:14] ---
    I still had no idea about
    Dosu, Zaku or Kin.
[07:18] ---
    In gathering information on Sasuke,
[07:21] ---
    I desired to learn their skills
[07:23] ---
    and carried out tactless things like
    deliberately subjecting myself to an attack.
[07:28] ---
    You overestimated me.
[07:32] ---
    It seems that you…
[07:33] ---
    you don’t trust me completely…yet.
[07:39] ---
    Was it necessary to tell you,
    my right-hand man,
[07:43] ---
    about the likes of those three?
[07:46] ---
    You see, therein lies
    the very proof of my trust.
[07:53] ---
    And because I do…
[07:58] ---
    I would like to leave Sasuke
    in your hands.
[08:03] ---
    The Curse Mark that was given to him…
[08:05] ---
    appears to have been sealed by Kakashi.
[08:08] ---
    Though, that won’t matter much.
[08:11] ---
    While there is still some
    darkness left in his heart…
[08:15] ---
    I want you to abduct him.
[08:18] ---
    That’s an uncharacteristically
    hasty request, is it not?
[08:22] ---
    There’s a little something troubling me…
[08:27] ---
    Is it Naruto Uzumaki?
[08:31] ---
    You’re quite a sharp one,
    aren’t you?
[08:35] ---
    Sasuke has lived for revenge
    against his older brother Itachi,
[08:41] ---
    and will not rest until he
    has achieved that aim.
[08:45] ---
    Nevertheless, in battle with me,
[08:47] ---
    he was aware that there were things
    beyond his power and
[08:50] ---
    faced death without fear.
[08:53] ---
    I didn’t think he’d be the type of
    person who would be in a hurry to die.
[08:57] ---
    According to your information,
[08:58] ---
    contact with that Nine-Tailed kid has
    altered Sasuke’s heart and mind.
[09:06] ---
    So much so, that he possesses
    some influence over Sasuke.
[09:10] ---
    The best thing to do is to get Sasuke
    away from him immediately…
[09:15] ---
    And quickly turn him in my color.
[09:28] ---
    Well, then…
[09:29] ---
    Kabuto…
[09:30] ---
    You...
[09:33] ---
    If you wish to stop me…
[09:43] ---
    You have no choice
    but to kill young Sasuke, now.
[09:49] ---
    You can’t possibly kill me…
[09:52] ---
    Though you are strong, you’re only
    in the same league as Kakashi.
[10:07] ---
    Just kidding…
[10:09] ---
    Now, run along.
[10:11] ---
    I trust you.
[10:20] ---
    That face…
[10:22] ---
    I wonder what could possibly
    be going on in his head?
[10:26] ---
    The Final Round is where
    each one of you
[10:28] ---
    will show off your battle skills
    in front of everyone.
[10:30] ---
    I want you to satisfactorily demonstrate
    and show off your ability
[10:33] ---
    as representative battle forces
    of your respective lands.
[10:37] ---
    Accordingly, the Final Round will
    commence one month from now.
[10:41] ---
    W-We’re not going to
    do it here, right now?
[10:44] ---
    This is so that there’s
    a suitable period of preparation.
[10:48] ---
    What do you mean?
[10:50] ---
    That is to say…
[10:51] ---
    Along with the announcement of
    the conclusion
[10:54] ---
    of the preliminary match to each
    country’s Daimyo and Shinobi leaders,
[10:57] ---
    readying the summons for
    Final Round requires preparation time—
[11:01] ---
    not to mention the time it takes
    for you examinees to prepare.
[11:06] ---
    This old man always has such
    a roundabout way of saying things.
[11:10] ---
    I don’t quite get what
    you’re trying to say.
[11:12] ---
    What do you mean?
[11:14] ---
    In other words,
    in order to know your adversary,
[11:16] ---
    in order to prepare yourself,
    time is necessary.
[11:18] ---
    Time to analyze what you learned about
    the adversaries in the preliminaries...
[11:21] ---
    time to take stock of your successes.
[11:24] ---
    The battles until now were
    like actual battles-
[11:27] ---
    it presupposed situations in which
    you can’t know your adversary.
[11:32] ---
    That’s for sure…
[11:34] ---
    I never dreamed that this guy
    could make sand into a weapon.
[11:38] ---
    However, this is not the case
    in the Final Round.
[11:41] ---
    Some of you might have already
    revealed everything in front of your rivals…
[11:47] ---
    In the spirit of fairness and equality,
[11:49] ---
    you will have a month to
    train yourself to further your skills.
[12:07] ---
    Now, I can’t be thinking of this
[12:09] ---
    as some sort of month-long
    holiday and do nothing! Believe it!
[12:12] ---
    Seriously! Seriously!
[12:29] ---
    It might not be good idea to
    excel too much, is it?
[12:32] ---
    We failed to stay out of Orochimaru’s
    watchful eye,
[12:37] ---
    and it was unfortunate for us both.
[12:40] ---
    Under this gentle exterior,
    a seed of evil took root –
[12:44] ---
    and it was this seed that was exploited…
[12:46] ---
    Some day, through that Ninjutsu…
[12:49] ---
    this child will as well…
[12:56] ---
    Kabuto…
[12:58] ---
    Who knows?
[13:00] ---
    Perhaps he really will kill Sasuke.
[13:18] ---
    I have to give it you, Kakashi…
[13:20] ---
    Stopping my attack from your blind spot…
[13:24] ---
    But, you’d better ready at least
    10 of your men next time.
[13:33] ---
    The Anbu that I prepared were
    taken out without difficulty…
[13:37] ---
    You’re not an ordinary Genin are you?
[13:40] ---
    You caught a whiff of me and immediately
    readied your weapon…
[13:44] ---
    you’re quite impressive.
[13:46] ---
    No, I’m not all that.
[13:49] ---
    What do you want with Sasuke?
[13:51] ---
    Depending on circumstances,
    I’ll haul you off to questioning.
[13:55] ---
    I wonder if that’s possible
    for the likes of you…
[13:59] ---
    Are you looking to take me on?
[14:06] ---
    You are the son of the chief of the
    Leaf medical corps, aren’t you?
[14:11] ---
    Your name, was it, Kabuto Yakushi?
[14:16] ---
    Are you affiliated with Orochimaru?
[14:21] ---
    If you arrest me here now,
[14:23] ---
    you might never be able to prove
    my connection to Orochimaru.
[14:27] ---
    Shut up and confine your answers
    to my questions.
[14:30] ---
    What if I say “No”?
[14:32] ---
    I’m the one asking the
    questions around here.
[14:35] ---
    Now give me some answers.
[14:36] ---
    You’ll find out before long anyway
    if you let me go,
[14:40] ---
    so can you make an exception
    just this once?
[14:43] ---
    You, willful little brat…
[14:47] ---
    Don’t mess around with grown-ups.
[14:50] ---
    Don’t be so arrogant.
[14:54] ---
    The circumstances are in my favor…
[15:23] ---
    I should have known.
[15:27] ---
    A shadow clone!
[15:56] ---
    Darn…I've let him escape.
[16:04] ---
    Impressive…
[16:11] ---
    As I suspected...
[16:12] ---
    This is the Dead Soul Jutsu,
[16:13] ---
    where one temporarily animates
    and controls the heart of a dead body.
[16:18] ---
    Meticulously transforming even the face…
[16:21] ---
    and also stopping his heartbeats
    and eliminating all traces of his body odor…
[16:25] ---
    in order to prepare an escape by
    impersonating a murdered Anbu…
[16:32] ---
    He wasn't raised as the adopted son of
    the chief of the medical corps for nothing.
[16:36] ---
    If someone this good is working
    for Orochimaru…
[16:41] ---
    I can’t stay as I am now…
[16:45] ---
    Now that that’s done…
[16:46] ---
    I’d like to let you take your leave…
[16:50] ---
    But first, for the Final Round,
[16:52] ---
    there is one more important
    matter to take care of.
[16:56] ---
    Let’s get on with it,
    so we can get to training!
[17:00] ---
    Now, now. I want you all to
    calmly take one slip of paper
[17:04] ---
    from the box that Anko is holding.
[17:07] ---
    I’m going to go around in order…
    take only one.
[17:21] ---
    Good, everyone has taken
    a number.
[17:23] ---
    Then, from left to right, tell me
     the number on your slip of paper.
[17:27] ---
    I’m eight.
[17:29] ---
    I’m one.
[17:31] ---
    Seven.
[17:32] ---
    Five.
[17:34] ---
    Three.
[17:34] ---
    Nine.
[17:35] ---
    Two.
[17:36] ---
    Six.
[17:38] ---
    In other words, he has number four.
[17:41] ---
    Uh-huh.
[17:43] ---
    Very well, I will tell you
[17:44] ---
    about how the Final Round
    tournament will work.
[17:48] ---
    Huh?
[17:50] ---
    Is that what these
    drawing lots were for?
[17:52] ---
    Ibiki, bring forth the pairings.
[17:55] ---
    Yes, sir.
[18:04] ---
    He’s so far away.
[18:06] ---
    Is that all the Final Round is,
    a tournament?
[18:09] ---
    Shoot! I have one extra round.
[18:12] ---
    Vendetta for Choji?
    Give me a break!
[18:17] ---
    I’m so relieved to know that
    I won’t be in the same section as Gaara.
[18:20] ---
    Sasuke Uchiha…
[18:23] ---
    Perfect.
[18:25] ---
    Hyuga Neji, right off the bat?
[18:29] ---
    This couldn’t be better!
    Believe it!
[18:33] ---
    Sasuke has to go up against him…?
[18:40] ---
    Could I ask a question?
[18:42] ---
    Go ahead.
[18:43] ---
    Does this mean that there will
    only be one winner of the tournament?
[18:47] ---
    That only one of us will be
    able to become a Chunin?
[18:52] ---
    No, on the contrary.
[18:54] ---
    The judges of the Final Round,
    of which I am one,
[18:58] ---
    will be made up of the Kazekage,
[18:59] ---
    the Daimyo from various countries
    who will assign you your missions,
[19:02] ---
    and the Shinobi Leaders.
[19:06] ---
    Through this tournament,
[19:07] ---
    these judges will be able to make
    a thorough evaluation,
[19:12] ---
    and come to a decision as to
    whether each one of you
[19:14] ---
    possesses the qualities incumbent
    of a Chunin.
[19:17] ---
    Even if someone loses the first round,
    they can still become a Chunin.
[19:22] ---
    So there’s a chance that all
    of us will become Chunin?
[19:27] ---
    Correct, but conversely,
    there’s also a chance that none of you will.
[19:32] ---
    To “advance” in the tournament,
[19:35] ---
    means maximizing chances
    to appeal yourselves to the judges.
[19:40] ---
    Understood, Shikamaru?
[19:44] ---
    This is all a real pain in my…
[19:48] ---
    Thank you for your patience.
[19:50] ---
    We will adjourn until next month.
[19:52] ---
    The second round will either be
    No Eyebrows from Sand or Sasuke, huh?
[19:57] ---
    That guy is so strong he kicked
    Bushy Brow’s butt.
[20:00] ---
    Sand Coffin!
[20:08] ---
    I want to fight you, too.
[20:17] ---
    Now that it’s come to this,
    I’ve got to see Kakashi Sensei.
[20:19] ---
    Umm, where’s the room
    that Sasuke’s in?
[20:23] ---
    I’m sorry. Mr. Sasuke
    is not allowed visitors.
[20:25] ---
    What?! Hey, hey!
    What's up with that?!
[20:28] ---
    I’m sorry, those are the rules.
[20:29] ---
    Why, Sis, tell me why?
[20:31] ---
    Naruto, this is a hospital.
    Keep it down.
[20:35] ---
    Kakashi Sensei!
[20:37] ---
    Say! Say!
[20:38] ---
    I’ve got a favor to ask!
[20:40] ---
    You don’t need to say it all.
[20:42] ---
    Well, I thought it would
    come to this so…
[20:44] ---
    I searched for someone
    to watch your training.
[20:47] ---
    Why?! I want you to, Kakashi Sensei!
[20:51] ---
    I have some matters to take care of.
[20:53] ---
    I don’t have the time to trouble
    myself with you.
[20:58] ---
    Oh! Aha...!
[21:01] ---
    You’re going to train
    Sasuke, aren’t you!
[21:04] ---
    Well, don't say that.
[21:06] ---
    I found a sensei who’s
    more reliable than I am!
[21:09] ---
    Well…who is it?
[21:12] ---
    It’s me!
[21:13] ---
    Huh?
[21:16] ---
    You!
[21:17] ---
    The Closet Perve!
[21:19] ---
    Such insolence!
[21:23] ---
    Hey, can you hear it?
[21:28] ---
    The clear, blue sky goes on and on
[21:37] ---
    The ocean spans limitlessly
[21:46] ---
    Please keep that smile on your face forever
[21:55] ---
    Or else I’ll cry
[22:01] ---
    You won't have to search around you
[22:05] ---
    It’s all ok now.
[22:09] ---
    Everyone is inside
    this hand
[22:18] ---
    when you want to cry,
    and you want to run away
[22:23] ---
    When you forget what happiness is
[22:27] ---
    Just sing.
[22:31] ---
    Light is born, and darkness was born
[22:37] ---
    The two are one
[22:39] ---
    Harmonia, feel the telepathy
[22:46] ---
    Hey, can you hear it?
[22:56] ---
    Darn! I’m not satisfied with this!
[22:59] ---
    I don't care if you’re elite tutor
    or whatever,
[23:01] ---
    but there’s no way
    I’m not going to get stronger
[23:03] ---
    if I’m to learn from the Closet Perve
    weaker than me!
[23:05] ---
    I have to get strong by any
    means necessary, no matter what!
[23:09] ---
    If you’re really a strong ninja,
[23:11] ---
    just try to convince me
    with your sheer strength!
[23:14] ---
    Next episode: “Ebisu Returns:
    Naruto’s Toughest Training Yet!”

    I’m gonna win this time around, too!

[00:06] ---
    Press down hard on the gas
[00:09] ---
    That’s right, there’s no compromise
[00:13] ---
    We'll slip through the night
[00:17] ---
    At the final moment push hard
[00:20] ---
    That's right, all the way to zero,
[00:24] ---
    Until we wipe away the days
[00:29] ---
    Gently open your heart
[00:35] ---
    If you pull it close to you
[00:40] ---
    It will reach you, without a doubt
[00:43] ---
    It will come, closer
[00:45] ---
    Now
[00:55] ---
    We’re speeding through life,
    squeezing it for all of its worth
[01:01] ---
    Our feet are tied
[01:02] ---
    But we still keep going farther
[01:06] ---
    Even if I take it back, and grasp it
[01:12] ---
    If you’re not the one
[01:13] ---
    There will be no meaning
[01:14] ---
    And so we’ll go far off into the distance.
[01:42] ---
    Umm, where’s the room
    that Sasuke’s in?
[01:45] ---
    Mr. Sasuke is not allowed
    any visitors.
[01:48] ---
    What?! Hey, hey!
    What's up with that?!
[01:50] ---
    I’m sorry,
    those are the rules.
[01:52] ---
    Why, Sis, tell me why?
[01:53] ---
    Naruto, this is a hospital.
    Keep it down.
[01:56] ---
    Say! Say!
    I've got a favor to ask!
[02:00] ---
    You don’t need to say it all.
[02:01] ---
    Well, I thought it would
    come to this so…
[02:04] ---
    I searched for someone
    to watch your training.
[02:07] ---
    Why?!
[02:09] ---
    I want you to, Kakashi Sensei!
[02:11] ---
    I have some matters
    to take care of.
[02:13] ---
    I don’t have time to
    trouble myself with you.
[02:18] ---
    Oh! Aha...!
[02:21] ---
    You’re going to
    train Sasuke, aren’t you?!
[02:24] ---
    Well... don't say that.
[02:26] ---
    I found a sensei who’s
    more reliable than I am!
[02:29] ---
    Well…who is it?
[02:32] ---
    It’s me!
[02:33] ---
    Huh?!
[02:34] ---
    Oh!
[02:36] ---
    You!
[02:37] ---
    The Closet Perv!
[02:39] ---
    Such insolence!
[02:40] ---
    Ebisu Returns:
    Naruto's Toughest Training Yet!
[02:53] ---
    Ebisu Sensei is
    a Closet Perv?
[02:57] ---
    Why’s this guy
    my training teacher?!
[03:01] ---
    In the first place,
    he’s weaker than me!
[03:04] ---
    What did you say?
[03:05] ---
    But you see! But you see!
[03:08] ---
    A long time ago,
    with my Harem Jutsu, this guy…
[03:11] ---
    Transform!
[03:12] ---
    Master Ebisu! Master Ebisu!
[03:23] ---
    B-By any chance…
[03:27] ---
    Harem Jutsu?
[03:29] ---
    U-Uh…it’s nothing!
[03:33] ---
    I’ll treat you to and buy you
    whatever you want later!
[03:37] ---
    Just be quiet about that!
[03:39] ---
    You better.
[03:41] ---
    Wow, I didn’t know you
    were acquainted.
[03:46] ---
    Well, they’re unsavory ties, but.
[03:49] ---
    How could I ever forget
    that humiliation?
[03:53] ---
    But why this guy?
[03:56] ---
    I definitely don’t want him to.
[03:58] ---
    Same here.
[04:00] ---
    If it weren’t Kakashi’s favor,
    who’d teach you for the fun of it?
[04:03] ---
    Then don’t.
[04:04] ---
    Now now, both of you…
[04:06] ---
    Don’t say that.
[04:09] ---
    Naruto, Ebisu Sensei is a private tutor
[04:12] ---
    who teaches the elite,
    a special Jonin!
[04:15] ---
    He’s truly better
    at teaching than I am.
[04:23] ---
    Well, Naruto, of the three kids
    in Squad Seven that I taught,
[04:27] ---
    you’re the worst at the basic skills.
[04:30] ---
    Get taught with care
    this time around.
[04:32] ---
    How the heck am I inferior
    compared to Sakura and Sasuke?!
[04:41] ---
    Naruto, it’s fact that you
    don’t have the fundamentals down.
[04:45] ---
    No matter what you do,
    the basic skills are important.
[04:48] ---
    If you really want to become strong,
    just be quiet and listen to what I say.
[04:56] ---
    Now then, Ebisu Sensei,
    I’m leaving him with you.
[04:59] ---
    Yes, yes.
[05:01] ---
    Dang it.
[05:04] ---
    It may appear to be harsh,
[05:05] ---
    but you can become stronger
    a lot more.
[05:10] ---
    Do your best.
[05:13] ---
    Okay, then, let’s go.
[05:18] ---
    Still, I’m not convinced…
[05:20] ---
    Huh?
[05:21] ---
    You see!
[05:23] ---
    Fundamentals might be important,
[05:26] ---
    but I won’t get strong being taught
    by someone weaker than me!
[05:30] ---
    So in other words,
    you want to say that I’m weak?
[05:34] ---
    Who else is here?!
[05:36] ---
    I was certainly surprised having
    that indecent Jutsu used on me that time.
[05:42] ---
    But it’s premature for you to
    judge my ability on just that.
[05:47] ---
    Even though you were
    totally knocked out.
[05:52] ---
    Fine.
[05:53] ---
    Then, why don’t we put
    it to the test?
[05:55] ---
    Hmm?
[05:56] ---
    Naruto, run.
[05:59] ---
    Huh?
[06:00] ---
    If you can get to outrun me,
    I’ll back down quietly.
[06:07] ---
    Back down…?
[06:08] ---
    Yes.
[06:09] ---
    And of course, I’ll speak to
    Kakashi Sensei
[06:13] ---
    about you receiving direct training.
[06:16] ---
    What?! Really?!
[06:18] ---
    This elite instructor does not
    go back on his word.
[06:22] ---
    However, this is only if
    you can outrun me.
[06:26] ---
    Then that makes it easy!
[06:29] ---
    See ya!
[06:40] ---
    This’ll be a snap, a snap!
[06:42] ---
    I’ll lose that…
    Closet Perv in no time!
[06:53] ---
    He already can’t catch up!
[06:55] ---
    I knew I was quite
    an exceptional Ninja…
[06:58] ---
    Who is exceptional, you say?
[07:05] ---
    Surely you’re not thinking you can
    outrun me with just that much.
[07:10] ---
    W-What’re you saying?!
[07:11] ---
    The chase has still…
[07:15] ---
    only just begun!
[07:34] ---
    Though he’s a Closet Perv,
[07:37] ---
    he’s the elite tutor after all,
    he’s good.
[07:43] ---
    Now then.
[08:12] ---
    I knew you were Closet Perv.
[08:18] ---
    What are you doing…?
[08:20] ---
    Naruto?
[08:24] ---
    I see. The idea isn’t bad.
[08:28] ---
    Then, how about this?!
[08:32] ---
    Shadow Clone Jutsu!
[08:38] ---
    Heh!
[08:39] ---
    Catch me…if you can!
[08:45] ---
    Not bad…
[08:48] ---
    However, you are not the only one
    who uses the Shadow Clone Jutsu.
[08:57] ---
    I won’t let you get away!
[09:02] ---
    Dang it!
[09:11] ---
    Son…of…a...!
[09:28] ---
    Now then, next.
[09:33] ---
    Hold it!
[09:43] ---
    I found you!
[09:49] ---
    Wait!
[09:51] ---
    I won’t let you get away!
[09:52] ---
    Get off!
[09:53] ---
    There! No, actually, here!
[09:55] ---
    Here!
[09:57] ---
    There!
[09:58] ---
    There!
[09:59] ---
    Hold it!
[10:09] ---
    Have you reached your limit?
[10:18] ---
    You’re freaking pesky!
[10:20] ---
    Give it up already!
[10:22] ---
    What are you snapping
    back at me for?
[10:24] ---
    This is a chase, so chasing
    is natural, right?
[10:29] ---
    T-True enough…
[10:31] ---
    Naruto, you have understood
    my greatness by now, right?
[10:36] ---
    It’s about time you surrendered
    and moved on to training--
[10:38] ---
    The heck with that!
[10:42] ---
    I’m going to bump you off,
    and receive Kakashi Sensei’s training!
[10:48] ---
    Even if I have to knock you out!
[10:52] ---
    It appears you still have
    some spirit left.
[10:59] ---
    To think he would come at me
    head on, even though this is a chase.
[11:02] ---
    Just what I would expect of you, Naruto.
[11:04] ---
    As Kakashi said, he’s the
    number one unpredictability Ninja.
[11:08] ---
    Don’t take this badly!
[11:10] ---
    Eat this!
[11:14] ---
    Clone Jutsu…?
[11:30] ---
    The game is over, Naruto!
[11:36] ---
    Dang it!
[11:43] ---
    Miso-flavor barbecued pork noodles and
    salt-flavor ramen noodles!
[11:48] ---
    Here you go!
[11:50] ---
    Naruto, having been shown
    your movements and
[11:54] ---
    having further analyzed
    what Kakashi has told me…
[11:57] ---
    it is clear that you cannot control
    Chakra well.
[12:03] ---
    Control…?
[12:04] ---
    That’s right.
[12:05] ---
    Now then, comparing you
    with Sasuke and Sakura …
[12:09] ---
    I shall explain your
    bad points in order.
[12:14] ---
    As you know, in the case of using
    Ninjutsu, Genjutsu and the like,
[12:18] ---
    Ninjas build up Chakra and
    activate the Jutsu.
[12:21] ---
    I-I know that already!
[12:25] ---
    Is that so?
[12:26] ---
    Then, in the case of comparing
    the three of you,
[12:29] ---
    I shall explain specifically
    how you are inferior.
[12:34] ---
    That’s kind of an irritating
    way of saying it.
[12:37] ---
    I’m treating you the ramen
    as promised,
[12:39] ---
    so be quiet and listen!
[12:42] ---
    First, let us say that Sakura
    uses Clone Jutsu.
[12:46] ---
    Clone Jutsu!
[12:51] ---
    In her case, her build-up control as well as
    her control of Chakra is perfect,
[12:56] ---
    so she can make clones without
    using wasteful energy.
[12:59] ---
    Cha!
[13:01] ---
    Next, in Sasuke’s case,
[13:04] ---
    he is somewhat poor at
    building up Chakra.
[13:09] ---
    Clone Jutsu.
[13:14] ---
    But, his control of Chakra is perfect,
[13:18] ---
    so both he and Sakura can
    make five clones.
[13:23] ---
    But, he uses a bit more wasteful
    Chakra than Sakura.
[13:28] ---
    Oh!
[13:29] ---
    So Sasuke’s nothing special.
[13:31] ---
    In your case, there’s no time
    to be laughing at others.
[13:35] ---
    Huh?
[13:38] ---
    You are very poor at building up Chakra
    and controlling it,
[13:43] ---
    so you cannot make clones
    with the same amount of Chakra.
[13:47] ---
    In the case where you strain to
    make clones despite that,
[13:50] ---
    after consuming a much larger amount
    of Chakra than Sakura and Sasuke…
[13:54] ---
    Clone Jutsu!
[13:58] ---
    ...you can barely make
    one clone at best.
[14:02] ---
    By the way,
[14:03] ---
    Sakura and Sasuke can become ten
    with the same amount of Chakra.
[14:13] ---
    Like this, the three of you are
    this different even using the same Jutsu.
[14:20] ---
    Well, this is a somewhat exaggerated
    comparison of you three,
[14:25] ---
    but you build up too much Chakra,
    use too much physical strength,
[14:29] ---
    and your Jutsu activation is also unstable.
[14:31] ---
    But, there’ve been times when
    I was greater than Sakura and Sasuke…
[14:35] ---
    That’s only because you
    happen to have
[14:37] ---
    the most outstanding stamina
    of the three!
[14:43] ---
    Well, I am pretty sure that
    your Chakra control
[14:46] ---
    is getting difficult due to the influence
    of the Nine-Tails…
[14:50] ---
    which is the origin of your stamina.
[14:54] ---
    Anyway, there is no mistaking
    that you can become strong
[14:58] ---
    if you carry out the training
    we will be doing from now.
[15:00] ---
    Huh?! Really?!
[15:02] ---
    I guarantee it.
[15:05] ---
    Now then, let’s go.
[15:07] ---
    Sir, your bill.
[15:08] ---
    Oh, that’s right.
[15:10] ---
    Wha--?!
[15:19] ---
    Thank you very much!
[15:30] ---
    We’ve come quite a long way…
[15:32] ---
    But, this is a hot spring town, right?
[15:35] ---
    It doesn’t look like we’ve come
    here to leisurely soak in a hot spring…
[15:38] ---
    Hey! Naruto!
[15:41] ---
    That’s the women’s bath!
[15:43] ---
    I simply will not allow
    indecent behavior!
[15:48] ---
    Huh?
[15:49] ---
    I’m not you…
[15:51] ---
    It’s not that I was trying to peep.
    Believe it!
[15:54] ---
    Thinking of something like that
    in the first place makes you a Closet Perv!
[16:00] ---
    What’s with that look?
[16:02] ---
    N-Nothing.
[16:04] ---
    More importantly, why’ve we come
    to a place like this?!
[16:07] ---
    Will soaking in a hot spring
    do anything for training?
[16:10] ---
    No!
[16:11] ---
    The training will be here
    in this hot spring area!
[16:18] ---
    Okay, this is the place.
[16:20] ---
    It’s a bath, sure enough!
[16:23] ---
    What are you saying?
[16:25] ---
    I said this is training, didn’t I?
    Training!
[16:27] ---
    We’re going to train here?
[16:30] ---
    What the heck are we going to do?
[16:35] ---
    Walk on this hot water!
[16:38] ---
    What?!
[16:42] ---
    What is it?
[16:43] ---
    Walk on hot water?
[16:46] ---
    Can you really do that?
[16:49] ---
    Of course!
[16:52] ---
    I heard from Kakashi Sensei.
[16:54] ---
    You already did tree-climbing training
    without using your hands, right?
[16:58] ---
    It’s an application of that.
[17:00] ---
    Hmm… What do you mean?
[17:02] ---
    Besides, I don’t really remember
    stuff from long ago!
[17:07] ---
    In tree climbing, all you do
    is accumulate
[17:09] ---
    only the necessary amount of Chakra
    in one necessary location
[17:11] ---
    and maintain that amount of
    Chakra all the while.
[17:14] ---
    Trees are fixed objects,
    so you only need to be attached to it.
[17:19] ---
    In other words,
[17:20] ---
    it’s training for building up
    a fixed amount of Chakra.
[17:25] ---
    To float on the surface of water,
[17:26] ---
    you have to discharge on
    a constant basis
[17:28] ---
    an appropriate amount of Chakra
    from your feet to the water
[17:31] ---
    and balance that to the extent that
    you can float your own body.
[17:35] ---
    Huh?
[17:36] ---
    This Chakra control is
    more difficult than maintaining…
[17:41] ---
    and is a control training for
    discharge and usage of fixed amount
[17:45] ---
    of Chakra for Jutsu and alike.
[17:47] ---
    Hmm, I really don’t get it!
[17:50] ---
    Well, it would be better to
    show you in your case.
[17:54] ---
    First, you build up Chakra
    in your feet.
[17:59] ---
    Then, while constantly discharging
    a fixed amount…
[18:02] ---
    you balance it with your body weight.
[18:08] ---
    And…
[18:10] ---
    well, this is how it goes.
[18:12] ---
    Oh! Okay! I’m going to try!
[18:16] ---
    First, you build up Chakra
    in your feet.
[18:20] ---
    Then!
[18:22] ---
    Discharge a fixed amount. Right?
[18:24] ---
    Oh!
[18:25] ---
    I knew it.
[18:26] ---
    Hot-hot-hot-hot!
[18:29] ---
    I forgot to mention it,
    but this hot water is 60° C.
[18:32] ---
    If you do nothing but fail…
[18:34] ---
    you will become a boiled octopus!
[18:36] ---
    Dang it!
[18:39] ---
    I’ll do it no matter what!
[18:57] ---
    You’re unusually spirited today,
    honored grandson!
[19:03] ---
    My principle of guidance
    has finally gotten through!
[19:07] ---
    This would ordinarily be the
    time to go carry out
[19:09] ---
    a surprise attack on Lord Hokage.
[19:12] ---
    I’ve stopped doing that now!
[19:15] ---
    That’s right!
[19:16] ---
    So you have finally understood.
[19:18] ---
    That the shortcut to becoming
    the Hokage is to do as I say…
[19:23] ---
    There are no shortcuts!
[19:26] ---
    Huh?
[19:28] ---
    Brother Naruto said it…
[19:31] ---
    If you’re to become Hokage,
    be prepared for that!
[19:40] ---
    Oh!
[19:43] ---
    I’m starting to get it!
[19:46] ---
    To think he would get the
    hang of the Chakra control this quickly…
[19:51] ---
    I never thought,
    you would grow this much.
[19:55] ---
    Indeed, there are no shortcuts,
    in anything…
[20:00] ---
    It appears I had the
    wrong idea about you…
[20:02] ---
    You are a much smarter teacher
    than I am.
[20:07] ---
    And, you were not just a Demon Fox…
[20:11] ---
    You were a splendid
    Hidden Leaf Village Ninja!
[20:14] ---
    Oh! Hot!
[20:18] ---
    Hm?! That is…!
[20:25] ---
    Humph! I don’t know who you are
    or where you’re from, but…
[20:30] ---
    I will not allow indecency!
[20:34] ---
    Man…
[20:37] ---
    T-That is!
[20:41] ---
    What?!
[20:53] ---
    Don’t make a ruckus.
[20:55] ---
    Jeez, it won’t do to be found out!

    quick at running away.
