[00:10] ---
    C'mon!
[00:17] ---
    Running like a fugitive,
[00:20] ---
    Being chased by something
[00:24] ---
    Inside my heart is pounding
[00:28] ---
    My throat dry like it's withering
[00:32] ---
    For no single one,
[00:36] ---
    To none does belong,
[00:41] ---
    This time is ours, right now...
[00:48] ---
    Unraveling the pain,
[00:50] ---
    Unraveling our hearts,
[00:51] ---
    Unraveling shadows
[00:55] ---
    Stifling our breath,
[00:57] ---
    Reaching for beyond,
[00:59] ---
    Tearing through the dark
[01:03] ---
    In fighting and in love
[01:11] ---
    To the distant light above,
[01:14] ---
    Yes, we are on the way
[01:22] ---
    I wanna rock...
[01:26] ---
    Rockin' my heart
[01:49] ---
    It seems I've overused
    my Sharingan…
[01:53] ---
    Are you alright, Sensei?
[01:56] ---
    Not really… It will be hard just to
    move for about a week…
[02:00] ---
    Well…
[02:01] ---
    It would be better if
    you didn't move for a while.
[02:04] ---
    O-Okay…
[02:10] ---
    Hey! Sensei's awake.
[02:13] ---
    Come on!
[02:14] ---
    Your Sharingan is fantastic,
[02:16] ---
    but if it puts that much of a strain
    on your body, it may not be worth it!
[02:20] ---
    S-Sorry…
[02:21] ---
    But you know...
[02:23] ---
    He did take down
    a real powerful Ninja like that!
[02:26] ---
    We probably don't need to
    worry for a while.
[02:28] ---
    Anyway, that kid with the mask...
    What was he?
[02:33] ---
    He was an ANBU black ops
    from the Hidden Mist village.
[02:36] ---
    It's a mask that the elite
    Ninja Tracking Unit wears.
[02:39] ---
    The elite Ninja Tracking Unit?
[02:41] ---
    They're commonly called the
     "fire extinguishing corps,"
[02:44] ---
    and their duty is to erase all traces
    that a Ninja ever lived.
[02:49] ---
    The body of the Ninja reveals
    a variety of things…
[02:51] ---
    Ninjutsu secrets and Chakra characteristics
    which permeate the Ninja of their village…
[02:55] ---
    the composition of secret medicines
    used on a Ninja's body…
[03:02] ---
    For instance, if I were to die,
[03:05] ---
    every secret about my Sharingan
    would be investigated thoroughly,
[03:09] ---
    and in the worst case,
[03:10] ---
    there's a danger that
    my entire Jutsu could be stolen.
[03:14] ---
    In other words,
    Tracker Ninja are specialists
[03:16] ---
    that prevent village secrets
    from leaking out
[03:19] ---
    by killing Rogue Ninja
    who've run away from their village,
[03:22] ---
    and completely eliminating
    their bodies.
[03:29] ---
    First, I'll cut the mouth cloth
    and have him spit up blood…
[03:35] ---
    It's alright.
[03:37] ---
    I'll do it…myself…
[03:40] ---
    What?
    You've already come back to life…
[03:47] ---
    Darn, you really are rough…
[03:53] ---
    You too, Zabuza.
[03:54] ---
    Please don't pull them out
    so violently or you really will die.
[04:03] ---
    How long do you plan on keeping
    that shady-looking mask on?!
[04:06] ---
    Take it off!
[04:08] ---
    It's a relic from the past,
    and it's been handy for trickery…
[04:17] ---
    But if I hadn't rescued you,
    you certainly would have been killed.
[04:22] ---
    If you were going to put me
    into a state of apparent death,
[04:24] ---
    you didn't need to aim for
    the secret opening on my neck.
[04:28] ---
    You're really a nasty one.
[04:32] ---
    It couldn't be helped…
[04:34] ---
    Besides, I didn't want to mark up
    your immaculate body.
[04:39] ---
    And also, I can aim more accurately
    on the point on the neck
[04:43] ---
    where there's not much muscle.
[04:48] ---
    You'll be numb for about a week
    and won't be able to move.
[04:51] ---
    But since you're Zabuza,
    perhaps you'll soon be able to move...
[04:59] ---
    You're so innocent, smart,
    and untainted…
[05:04] ---
    That's what I like about you.
[05:08] ---
    I am, after all, still a child.
[05:13] ---
    The fog has lifted.
[05:15] ---
    Yes.
[05:18] ---
    Will you be alright the next time?
[05:21] ---
    The next time…
[05:23] ---
    I'll be able to see right
    through the Sharingan.
[05:26] ---
    The Forest of Chakra
[05:34] ---
    What is this?
[05:35] ---
    Even though Zabuza is dead…
[05:37] ---
    this indescribable uneasiness…
[05:40] ---
    it must mean something
    very important…
[05:43] ---
    I have a feeling
    I've overlooked something.
[05:47] ---
    What's going on?! Sensei?
[05:49] ---
    What?
[05:50] ---
    Oh…so to continue my earlier story…
[05:54] ---
    Ninja trackers…
[05:55] ---
    take care of the bodies of people they've
    killed, immediately and on the spot.
[05:59] ---
    So what about that?
[06:02] ---
    What did that kid with
    the mask do with Zabuza?
[06:08] ---
    How should we know?!
[06:10] ---
    That masked one
    took Zabuza away!
[06:14] ---
    That's right…
[06:16] ---
    If he needed proof he'd killed Zabuza,
    he could simply have taken the head…
[06:21] ---
    And the question is...
[06:22] ---
    the weapon the Ninja tracker kid
    used to kill Zabuza…
[06:28] ---
    A regular Senbon…
[06:30] ---
    That's impossible…
[06:32] ---
    Right…it's impossible?!
[06:36] ---
    What have you guys
    been clamoring on and on about?!
[06:40] ---
    It's probably that…
    Zabuza is alive!
[06:45] ---
    What?
[06:47] ---
    What the heck do you mean?!
[06:49] ---
    But Kakashi Sensei,
    you made sure that he was dead!
[06:53] ---
    It's true, I did make sure…
[06:55] ---
    But, he was probably just in
    a state of near-death.
[07:04] ---
    The Senbon that Tracker Ninja used has
    a very low ability to kill
[07:09] ---
    unless it hits a vital spot…
[07:12] ---
    It's something that was originally used
    for medical treatments
[07:15] ---
    such as acupuncture therapy.
[07:17] ---
    Ninja trackers know all about
    the structure of the human body…
[07:22] ---
    putting people into a state of apparent
    near-death is probably simple for them.
[07:27] ---
    First, he went to the trouble of
    taking Zabuza's corpse
[07:30] ---
    which was probably heavier
    than he is.
[07:33] ---
    Second, he used a Senbon,
    a weapon with a low ability to kill.
[07:39] ---
    From these two factors,
[07:41] ---
    that youth wasn't aiming to
    kill Zabuza but to save him.
[07:47] ---
    Aren't you reading
    way too much into it?
[07:49] ---
    No…
[07:51] ---
    If something seems fishy,
    make preparations before it's too late.
[07:55] ---
    That's also an iron clad rule
    of the Shinobi!
[08:03] ---
    Humph… To hear that Zabuza
    may be alive and to be pleased…
[08:09] ---
    Sensei, what do we do to make preparations
    before it's too late?
[08:12] ---
    You won't even be able
    to move for a while…
[08:18] ---
    I'll assign you training!
[08:20] ---
    W-Wait a minute! Even with training,
     we're not gonna be that strong!
[08:25] ---
    Our opponent is a Ninja whom even you,
    with the Sharingan, had a tough fight with!
[08:30] ---
    Are you trying to kill us?!
[08:34] ---
    Sakura…
[08:35] ---
    Who was it that saved me
    during my difficult battle?
[08:39] ---
    You've all quickly grown…
    especially Naruto!
[08:44] ---
    You've grown the most!
[08:50] ---
    He clearly does seem somewhat
    stronger than before, but…
[08:55] ---
    So you noticed, Kakashi Sensei!
    Now it's getting interesting!
[09:00] ---
    It's not interesting at all…
[09:08] ---
    Who the heck are you?
[09:09] ---
    Hey, Inari!
    Where've you been?!
[09:12] ---
    Welcome back…Grandpa…
[09:14] ---
    Inari, what sort of greeting is that?!
[09:16] ---
    These are the Ninja
    who escorted your grandpa!
[09:20] ---
    It's okay, it's okay.
    Right, Inari?
[09:29] ---
    Mom, these guys will die…
[09:31] ---
    There's no way they can
    oppose Gato and win.
[09:34] ---
    Say what, you little brat!
[09:37] ---
    Now listen up!
[09:39] ---
    I'm a super hero who's gonna become
    an awesome Ninja
[09:41] ---
    named Hokage in the future!
[09:43] ---
    I don't know if it's Gato or
    Chocolat or whatever...
[09:45] ---
    I'm not worried
    about those guys, at all!
[09:48] ---
    Huh, a hero. That's ridiculous!
    There's no such thing!
[09:53] ---
    W-What did you say?!
[09:56] ---
    Stop that!
[09:57] ---
    If you don't want to die,
    you'd better hurry up and go home…
[10:04] ---
    Inari, where're you going?
[10:08] ---
    The sea…
    I'll be looking at the sea…
[10:15] ---
    I apologize.
[10:19] ---
    Shucks!
[10:21] ---
    That brat… I need to tell him
    a thing or two!
[10:30] ---
    Huh?
[10:33] ---
    Is he crying?!
[10:47] ---
    D-Dad...
[11:01] ---
    So, now the training begins!
[11:03] ---
    Yes, sir!
[11:05] ---
    So…before that, let me again explain
    Chakra power for a Ninja, from the basics.
[11:12] ---
    At this point…
[11:13] ---
    Of course we know about that!
    Chatora, right?
[11:18] ---
    It's Chakra…
[11:20] ---
    Yes, Sakura...?
[11:21] ---
    Are you listening, Naruto?!
[11:23] ---
    It's tiresome, so I'll explain it simply!
[11:28] ---
    Chakra is energy that
    a Ninja needs when he uses a Jutsu!
[11:34] ---
    It's made up of two energies:
[11:35] ---
    1) Physical energy gathered together
    from each and every cell in the body and
[11:40] ---
    2) Spiritual energy accumulated based
    on numerous trainings and experiences!
[11:47] ---
    In other words, Jutsu wrings out and
    combines these two energies
[11:52] ---
    from within the body,
[11:53] ---
    and this is called
     "combining the Chakra."
[11:57] ---
    Then Chakra is activated
    by forming hand "signs."
[12:03] ---
    That's exactly right!
[12:04] ---
    Iruka Sensei really does
    have good students.
[12:09] ---
    Whatever! I may not understand
    difficult explanations,
[12:13] ---
    but I'll just learn it with my body!
[12:16] ---
    Naruto is absolutely right…
[12:18] ---
    We're already able to use Jutsu…
[12:20] ---
    No! All of you still haven't used
    Chakra efficiently.
[12:25] ---
    What?!
[12:27] ---
    Hold on and listen…
[12:29] ---
    As Sakura explained earlier,
[12:30] ---
    combining Chakra means picking up
    both the physical and spiritual energies
[12:35] ---
    and mixing them together
    within the body.
[12:39] ---
    And of course the amount of each energy,
    the preparation of the energy,
[12:44] ---
    changes based on
    the Jutsu you want to activate…
[12:47] ---
    All of you at present aren't
    using Chakra efficiently!
[12:52] ---
    Even if you're able to combine
    a lot of Chakra,
[12:55] ---
    if you're not able to control it
    in a balanced way
[12:58] ---
    the effectiveness of the Jutsu
    not only will be cut in half
[13:02] ---
    but it may not even
    be activated at all.
[13:04] ---
    Wasting energy will prevent you from
    battling for long periods.
[13:08] ---
    These are some of
    the weaknesses that can occur.
[13:11] ---
    W-What should we do…?
[13:15] ---
    You need to learn to control
    the Chakra with your body!
[13:18] ---
    It's difficult training that requires you
    to put your life on the line to master!
[13:24] ---
    W-What will we do?
[13:27] ---
    Hm?
[13:29] ---
    Tree-climbing…
[13:30] ---
    Tree-climbing?!
[13:32] ---
    That's right.
[13:33] ---
    But it's not just simple tree-climbing!
[13:35] ---
    You will climb
    without using your hands.
[13:38] ---
    What? How?
[13:41] ---
    Well! Just watch.
[13:59] ---
    He's climbing…
[14:01] ---
    Perpendicular to the tree
    and with his feet!
[14:07] ---
    So see, kind of like this…
[14:10] ---
    Focus the Chakra on the bottoms of your feet
    and make them stick to the tree trunk.
[14:14] ---
    If you use Chakra well,
     you can do things like this.
[14:17] ---
    Wait a minute!
[14:19] ---
    How does something like that
    make you strong?
[14:21] ---
    So this is the main point…
[14:24] ---
    The aim of this training is
    to accumulate
[14:26] ---
    the required amount of combined Chakra
    to the required spot…
[14:31] ---
    This is surprisingly difficult
    even for an expert Ninja.
[14:35] ---
    The amount of Chakra used
    for tree-climbing is very subtle.
[14:39] ---
    And the bottoms of the feet are
    the most difficult place to gather Chakra.
[14:45] ---
    Anyway! In other words,
    if you master that control
[14:48] ---
    it will be possible to master
    any Jutsu. In theory, that is!
[14:55] ---
    The second aim is to maintain
    that combined Chakra.
[14:59] ---
    Ninja combine the most Chakra
    during battles.
[15:03] ---
    Under such situations,
[15:04] ---
    "control" and "maintenance"
    of Chakra becomes most difficult.
[15:09] ---
    So anyway, nothing's really gonna
    happen with me saying this and that…
[15:14] ---
    You'll need to learn it with your bodies
[15:21] ---
    Use that Kunai to put a mark
    at the spot
[15:23] ---
    where you can climb up to
    under your own strength now.
[15:28] ---
    Next make an effort to
    put a mark further from it.
[15:33] ---
    You aren't good enough to
    walk up from the start,
[15:37] ---
    so run and use your momentum
    to get used to it… You got it?!
[15:44] ---
    This training is nothing!
    Hah, it's too easy for me!
[15:49] ---
    After all, I'm the man
    who's grown the most!
[15:52] ---
    Enough with the talk…
    Now get to it. Try climbing any tree.
[15:58] ---
    OK, so first I need to gather
    the Chakra on the bottoms of my feet…
[16:10] ---
    Ready!! Here I go!
[16:30] ---
    I didn't think it'd be this difficult to
    maintain a constant amount of Chakra…
[16:34] ---
    If the Chakra is too strong
    you get pushed back…
[16:38] ---
    But if the Chakra is too weak,
    there's no sticking power and that happens.
[16:45] ---
    Well…!
[16:46] ---
    The difference between Naruto and Sasuke
    seems about right.
[16:49] ---
    This is pretty easy!
[16:51] ---
    What?!
[16:53] ---
    S-Sakura!
[16:59] ---
    So, it looks like the one with the best control
    of the Chakra is Sakura, the girl…
[17:09] ---
    Wow! Way to go, Sakura!
[17:11] ---
    Just what you'd expect from
    the girl I set my sights on!
[17:13] ---
    But it does sort of tick me off!
[17:16] ---
    Whatever!
[17:17] ---
    I wanted Sasuke to notice me…
[17:20] ---
    Why does this always happen?!
[17:22] ---
    Well, not only does Sakura have
    knowledge about Chakra,
[17:25] ---
    her control and stamina
    are pretty good.
[17:29] ---
    It looks like…
[17:30] ---
    She might be the closest one to
    becoming a Hokage…unlike someone else.
[17:36] ---
    And also, the Uchiha Clan
    isn't really that great…
[17:40] ---
    Shut up Sensei!
[17:43] ---
    Sasuke won't like me then!
[17:49] ---
    Having said that… Naruto and Sasuke…
[17:52] ---
    Those two have an incredible amount
    of Chakra hidden in them…
[17:55] ---
    that Sakura can't even match!
[17:57] ---
    If this training goes well,
    this will become an asset to them…
[18:02] ---
    OK! First I'll catch up to Sasuke!
[18:05] ---
    I'll do it... for sure!
[18:12] ---
    Whatever!
[18:14] ---
    Even if they do that,
    it's just a waste…
[18:39] ---
    Unbelievable…
[18:40] ---
    Even you got beaten and
    had to come back?
[18:42] ---
    The Ninja from the Hidden Mist Village
    look like total weaklings!
[18:45] ---
    You can't even clean up after
    your subordinates,
[18:48] ---
    and you think you're a "demon"!
    Don't make me laugh!
[18:57] ---
    So they're drawing swords…
[19:01] ---
    Hold on. Wait.
[19:03] ---
    Hey… There's no need to stay silent!
[19:07] ---
    Why don't you say something?
[19:13] ---
    Don't touch Zabuza
    with your dirty hands!
[19:17] ---
    I-It's gonna break…!
[19:23] ---
    N-No way…
[19:26] ---
    He moved…in an instant…
[19:28] ---
    I wouldn't do that…
    I'm ticked off!!
[19:36] ---
    Next time…
[19:36] ---
    If you lose again next time…
[19:39] ---
    remember that there'll be
    no place for you here!
[19:43] ---
    I'm leaving!
[19:49] ---
    Haku… Such unnecessary actions…
[19:52] ---
    I know…
[19:54] ---
    But it's too early to take down
    Gato right now…
[19:59] ---
    If we make trouble here...
[20:03] ---
    We'll be pursued by them again.
[20:07] ---
    We must restrain ourselves for now.
[20:11] ---
    Yeah...
[20:12] ---
    You're right.
[20:19] ---
    Ohhhhh…
[20:23] ---
    Ou–ch!!
[20:33] ---
    I'm totally worn out!
[20:35] ---
    How much stamina
    can those two have?
[20:44] ---
    But Naruto isn't getting
    any better at all.
[20:48] ---
    He'll soon give up and
    start throwing a tantrum.
[20:53] ---
    Shoot!
[20:54] ---
    See! He sure is
    an easy one to figure out!
[20:59] ---
    Hey, Sakura!
[21:01] ---
    Can you give me some tips?
[21:03] ---
    What?
[21:04] ---
    Let's keep it a secret from Sasuke!
    Come on, come on.
[21:09] ---
    He's getting stronger and stronger…
    How strong will he get…?
[21:15] ---
    At any rate Naruto…
[21:17] ---
    the amount of your dormant Chakra
    is probably more than Sasuke's.
[21:23] ---
    And it's even more than mine!
[21:27] ---
    I look forward to it… I really do.
[23:09] ---
    That Inari...
    He was crying all by himself.
[23:13] ---
    He was looking at the sea
    and crying the entire time.
[23:16] ---
    He's always crying all alone.
[23:20] ---
    What's that gonna do?
[23:22] ---
    What happened
