    Right here right now (Burn)
[00:30] ---
    Down a difficult road
    filled with endless struggles
[00:33] ---
    Where do you think you are going
    following someone else's map?
[00:37] ---
    An insightful crow comes along
    to tear up the map
[00:44] ---
    Now open your eyes and
    take a look at the truth (Yeah!)
[00:51] ---
    There's nothing to lose,
    so let's GO!!!

[01:24] ---

    We're gonna do it and do our best! BANG!
[01:51] ---
    We’re almost at
    the Village Hidden in the Leaves.
[01:54] ---
    Is everybody here?
[01:55] ---
    – Yes, sir! – Yes, sir!
[01:59] ---
    Big Brother Omasa,
    we’re missing one!
[02:02] ---
    What? Who is it?!
[02:06] ---
    It’s Idate! Morino Idate!
[02:10] ---
    Darn, he's such a hopeless kid!
[02:12] ---
    What should we do?
    Shall we wait?
[02:14] ---
    We have no choice…
[02:17] ---
    What the--?!
[02:18] ---
    Who is it?!
[02:21] ---
    You people are from the Wasabi Family
    of the Land of Tea, correct?
[02:25] ---
    Who are you!
[02:30] ---
    You should know your place.
[02:33] ---
    Hooligans like you people
    are no match for a Shinobi!
[02:53] ---
    Please don’t worry.
    I won’t take your lives.
[02:56] ---
    If you’ve learned from this,
[02:57] ---
    you should give up the race
    at Todoroki Great Shrine.
[03:06] ---
    Blast it!
[03:09] ---
    I have to at least deliver this letter
    to the Hidden Leaf Village.
[03:34] ---
    OK! Mission! Mission!
    I’m so eager to do it!
[03:40] ---
    But Kakashi Sensei is not here.
[03:43] ---
    Is he late as usual?
[03:45] ---
    No, Kakashi will not be coming.
[03:49] ---
    It's Old Lady Tsunade!
[03:51] ---
    Don’t call me an old lady!
[03:54] ---
    Excuse me… Lady Hokage…
[03:57] ---
    What do you mean by
    Kakashi Sensei will not be coming?
[04:00] ---
    As you three already know,
[04:03] ---
    most of the Jonin including Kakashi
    are on different missions.
[04:07] ---
    This time, the three of you will have
    to execute the mission by yourselves.
[04:12] ---
    This is a B-rank mission,
    escorting an important figure!
[04:16] ---
    Escorting an important figure…
[04:19] ---
    Of course,
    depending on the situation,
[04:20] ---
    the mission has the possibility
    of becoming an A-rank.
[04:25] ---
    And, who are we protecting?
[04:28] ---
    Don’t know…
[04:29] ---
    What do you mean
    “don’t know”?!
[04:32] ---
    In the neighboring nation
    of the Land of Tea,
[04:34] ---
    they have a Dedication Ceremony
    at the Todoroki Great Shrine
[04:36] ---
    once every four years.
[04:38] ---
    We’ve received a request
    to escort the runner
[04:39] ---
    who will be participating in
    the race that will be held there.
[04:43] ---
    But an assailant from the opponent’s side
[04:46] ---
    attacked the messengers
    before they arrived here.
[04:51] ---
    Assailant?
[04:52] ---
    Excuse me, but I still don’t
    quite understand the mission.
[04:56] ---
    Well, you should get the details
    directly from Boss Jirocho.
[05:01] ---
    Boss Jirocho?! Oh yeah!
    The boss from that time!
[05:06] ---
    That’s it.
[05:08] ---
    Now that you three understand,
    depart immediately!
[05:10] ---
    Get to the Land of Tea by today.
    Snap to it!
[05:13] ---
    – Yes! – All right.
[05:14] ---
    Okay!
[05:14] ---
    Roger that!
[05:19] ---
    I’m counting on you.
[05:21] ---
    Mission! Help an Old Friend
    in the Land of Tea
[05:34] ---
    Hey Sakura, aren’t you hungry?
[05:37] ---
    Well, a little bit…
[05:39] ---
    Then it’s decided!
[05:40] ---
    And perfect timing!
    There’s a teahouse right over there!
[05:45] ---
    Hey, Naruto.
[05:55] ---
    You’re here…?
[05:57] ---
    Aoi Rokusho has now arrived.
[06:01] ---
    I had you go through
    all that trouble,
[06:03] ---
    but Jirocho of the Wasabi
    does not know when to give up.
[06:07] ---
    Is he still trying to take part
    in the race at Todoroki Great Shrine?
[06:11] ---
    That’s right.
[06:12] ---
    And there’s new information
    that they have also hired Shinobi.
[06:17] ---
    I see…
[06:19] ---
    Then next time, let’s beat them
    to a pulp at the race…
[06:29] ---
    Welcome!
[06:30] ---
    Ma’am, I’ll have sweet bean soup.
[06:31] ---
    Then I’ll have dumplings.
[06:33] ---
    How about you, Sasuke?
[06:35] ---
    Jelly…
[06:36] ---
    All right, please wait for a moment.
[06:46] ---
    Ninja from the Leaf…
[06:47] ---
    I’m gonna work so hard!
[06:50] ---
    Naruto, don’t take unnecessary action
    by yourself.
[06:53] ---
    Oh, okay.
[06:55] ---
    Having sweet bean soup
    when it's so nice outside.
[06:58] ---
    The Ninja profession sure
    is carefree!
[07:01] ---
    What did you say?
[07:04] ---
    Things must really be peaceful
    for the Leaf Village.
[07:07] ---
    Such a dense-looking
    bunch of guys…
[07:10] ---
    What?!
[07:11] ---
    Hey! I didn’t know there was
    such a cutie here.
[07:15] ---
    I take back that previous comment!
[07:17] ---
    Ah…pardon me.
[07:19] ---
    I'm Idate Morino.
[07:21] ---
    What’s your name, young lady?
[07:23] ---
    Don’t you talk to Sakura
    in such a familiar tone!
[07:26] ---
    Sakura… That’s a good name.
[07:30] ---
    Hey, even a chance meeting is due
    to karma from a previous life.
[07:33] ---
    Why don’t we talk about our future?
[07:36] ---
    Huh? Talk about…the future?
[07:40] ---
    I’m talking about you quitting
    the Ninja life and becoming my bride…
[07:45] ---
    Hey you! How dare you
    hit on her all of a sudden!
[07:48] ---
    Don’t be silly!
[07:50] ---
    Just joking.
[07:52] ---
    But hey, you fool!
[07:54] ---
    Idate here hates Ninja!
[07:58] ---
    If you wander around
    the Land of Tea anymore,
[08:00] ---
    there’ll be a price to pay!
[08:01] ---
    That’s amusing! Bring it on!
[08:08] ---
    Hey, Naruto!
[08:10] ---
    Ridiculous! We don’t have time
    to waste on a hooligan.
[08:14] ---
    Be quiet, Sasuke!
[08:16] ---
    I’m not going to forgive a guy
    who makes fun of Shinobi!
[08:19] ---
    I’m going to punish this guy…
[08:21] ---
    Huh?
[08:22] ---
    He’s gone…
[08:24] ---
    Impossible!
    I didn’t even notice…
[08:29] ---
    Where did that guy run away to?!
[08:31] ---
    Here, thank you for waiting.
[08:34] ---
    Dang it!
[08:36] ---
    Thank you for your patronage.
[08:39] ---
    What? Two bills?
[08:42] ---
    This is…?
[08:43] ---
    Oh, that kid who was here left,
    saying that you guys would pay.
[08:48] ---
    That guy!
    How dare he make fools of us!
[08:52] ---
    The sound of footsteps is far off…
    He has considerable speed!
[08:56] ---
    He made us look like idiots!
[08:58] ---
    I can’t stay quiet.
    We have to chase him!
[09:02] ---
    Missus, thank you very much.
    I’ll leave the money here.
[09:06] ---
    Thanks!
[09:08] ---
    All the customers today
    seem to be in such a hurry.
[09:13] ---
    He has incredible speed.
    He must have trained very hard.
[09:17] ---
    Who is he?
[09:18] ---
    Doesn’t matter, we’re definitely
    going to catch up to him!
[09:24] ---
    Stupid Ninja!
[09:26] ---
    There’s no way
    they can catch up to me!
[09:41] ---
    Owww!
[09:43] ---
    Darn it… Swift Runner Idate
    makes a mistake of a lifetime!
[09:51] ---
    Serves you right!
[09:56] ---
    You have some nerve,
    trying to run away from us.
[10:02] ---
    I’m so sorry!
[10:04] ---
    Huh?
[10:05] ---
    I’m sorry…
[10:06] ---
    I had my wallet stolen and was at a loss,
    then you guys showed up.
[10:11] ---
    So I did that…
[10:15] ---
    You kinda feel sorry
    after hearing his story.
[10:17] ---
    Then you should have said that
    from the start!
[10:21] ---
    Ow! Huh…?
[10:24] ---
    What’s this?
[10:25] ---
    Don’t touch it!
[10:29] ---
    This is mine!
[10:32] ---
    Wh-What the…?!
[10:35] ---
    On your mark.
[10:38] ---
    Get set…
[10:39] ---
    Go!
[10:41] ---
    Weights?
[10:43] ---
    Try to catch me now, you idiots!
[10:46] ---
    Hey! He escaped again!
[10:48] ---
    That guy!
[10:51] ---
    He simply doesn’t get it!
[10:56] ---
    Is he for real?
[10:58] ---
    What a speed…!
[11:02] ---
    No way!
    Even we can’t catch up to him…?
[11:09] ---
    That’s it. We don't have a chance
    of catching up.
[11:12] ---
    Dang it! He'll get it
    when I see him next time!
[11:23] ---
    All of you, thanks for coming.
[11:27] ---
    Begging your pardon!
    Begging your pardon!
[11:30] ---
    I was born and raised
    in the Leaf Village in the Land of Fire.
[11:34] ---
    I was bathed in birth water
    at “Ichiraku Ramen.”
[11:37] ---
    My given name is Naruto
    and the surname is Uzumaki.
[11:39] ---
    People call me--
[11:40] ---
    Loser!
[11:42] ---
    Loser…? Nah, not that!
[11:47] ---
    You’re funny as usual.
[11:49] ---
    Boss Jirocho,
    you're looking good yourself.
[11:52] ---
    Hey, Naruto!
[11:54] ---
    That's okay.
    A boy should be this spunky.
[11:59] ---
    The greetings seem to be done,
    so I’ll get to the main topic.
[12:03] ---
    The Fifth Hokage told us to get
    the details of this mission from you.
[12:08] ---
    Yes, in fact…
[12:12] ---
    Do you know of the Dedication Ceremony
    at the Todoroki Great Shrine?
[12:18] ---
    To…Todo…what?
[12:21] ---
    Well, make yourselves comfortable.
[12:25] ---
    The legend goes…
[12:30] ---
    A long time ago,
    in order to subdue a storm,
[12:33] ---
    Ryuko’s Jewels were dedicated
    to the Todoroki Great Shrine
[12:37] ---
    and the storm subsided.
[12:42] ---
    It became a customary event
    that happens once every four years.
[12:46] ---
    At first, it was just to dedicate the jewels,
    but several decades ago,
[12:50] ---
    it became a festival in which
    the first-place runner
[12:52] ---
    became the man of the year.
[12:57] ---
    In recent years, the festival has
    taken on another face.
[13:03] ---
    For ages now,
    in this port town of Degarashi,
[13:06] ---
    two families,
    the Wasabi and the Wagarashi,
[13:09] ---
    have controlled local operations
    and policed the town.
[13:13] ---
    It’s embarrassing,
[13:14] ---
    but conflict between the two families
    has never ceased and
[13:17] ---
    there have been numerous skirmishes
    over territorial rights.
[13:22] ---
    As the struggle intensified,
[13:24] ---
    the town residents became entangled
    and even got injured…
[13:30] ---
    In order to put a stop to the conflict,
    for the first time,
[13:33] ---
    there was talk of some kind of mediation
    in the presence of the lord.
[13:39] ---
    And it was agreed that the power holder
    of the town
[13:42] ---
    would be determined in a contest
    rather than through brawls.
[13:46] ---
    So that contest is…
[13:48] ---
    It is the Todoroki Great Shrine
    Dedication Ceremony
[13:50] ---
    that is held every four years.
[13:55] ---
    Four years ago, the Wagarashi
    easily won by hiring a Shinobi,
[13:59] ---
    and we have learned that
    they've hired a Shinobi again this year.
[14:04] ---
    In order to counteract that,
[14:05] ---
    we sent messengers to
    the Hidden Leaf Village with a request,
[14:10] ---
    but they were ambushed and attacked.
[14:22] ---
    I beg you guys!
[14:25] ---
    Please lend us your power.
[14:27] ---
    We cannot afford to lose this race
    to the Wagarashi Family!
[14:33] ---
    Leave it to me!
[14:35] ---
    And, who do you want us
    to escort?
[14:38] ---
    Oh, so you’ll take this job?
[14:44] ---
    Did you call for me, Boss?
[14:55] ---
    Oh, you guys know each other?
    Then that makes the story fast.
[15:01] ---
    That might not actually
    be the case…
[15:07] ---
    Boss Jirocho is an important person!
[15:10] ---
    By rights, he shouldn’t bow
    his head to Ninja like you!
[15:14] ---
    Even if he did bow his head,
    I’d flatly refuse to escort a guy like you.
[15:19] ---
    Oh yeah?!
[15:20] ---
    As if I’d go with some guy who came
    from who-knows-where!
[15:25] ---
    "Some guy from who-knows-where"?!
[15:28] ---
    I am the brilliant Ninja,
    Naruto Uzumaki,
[15:30] ---
    who will eventually inherit
    the name of Hokage!
[15:33] ---
    Hah! Hokage is no big deal!
[15:35] ---
    Hah! The boss of hooligans
    is even less of a big deal!
[15:38] ---
    You idiot! Boss Jirocho is
    a very honorable person!
[15:42] ---
    The Hokage is a great Shinobi
[15:44] ---
    who puts his life on the line
    to protect the village!
[15:47] ---
    Boss Jirocho is a very,
    very, very honorable person
[15:50] ---
    who always puts his life
    on the line to protect the town!
[15:53] ---
    Hokage is more, more,
    more incredible!
[16:11] ---
    Even though it’s a tourist resort,
    everything seems so expensive.
[16:15] ---
    Sorry about that.
    lt sure is expensive, isn't it?
[16:17] ---
    Oh no, I didn’t mean…
[16:19] ---
    We actually don’t want to sell
    at this kind of price,
[16:21] ---
    but after the Wagarashi family
    came into power…
[16:25] ---
    P-Please forgive me!
[16:27] ---
    How dare you?!
[16:28] ---
    Do you know who you have
    to thank to do business?
[16:31] ---
    Are you actually thinking about turning
    against the Wagarashi Family?
[16:34] ---
    N-Not at all.
    But I have to get paid…
[16:38] ---
    You’re slow to understand.
[16:40] ---
    – Hey! – Yes, sir!
[16:42] ---
    P-Please stop!
[16:45] ---
    Huh! First of all, we’ll destroy you…
[16:49] ---
    Wh-Who are you?!
[16:52] ---
    Get out of here before you get hurt!
[16:55] ---
    – What?! – What?!
[16:56] ---
    Please run away!
[16:57] ---
    These people are from
    the Wagarashi…
[16:59] ---
    It’ll be fine.
[17:01] ---
    – You punk! – Wise guy!
[17:08] ---
    We’ll let you go for today!
[17:10] ---
    If you’ve learned your lesson,
    never defy us again, kid!
[17:15] ---
    Or you’ll pay when
    we see you next time!
[17:22] ---
    – Y-You won’t get away with this!
    – Y-You won’t get away with this!
[17:25] ---
    Young man…
[17:27] ---
    Thank you very much.
[17:29] ---
    What a refreshing feeling!
[17:32] ---
    We definitely need Boss Jirocho's
    Wasabi Family to win the upcoming race.
[17:37] ---
    Sasuke…
[17:39] ---
    Yeah…
[17:52] ---
    Boss…
[17:53] ---
    Of all people,
    did you have to ask the Leaf Shinobi?
[17:58] ---
    Don’t sulk like that, Idate.
[18:01] ---
    I'm not sulking.
[18:03] ---
    It’s just that…
[18:05] ---
    Idate…
[18:06] ---
    I believe in you more
    than anybody else.
[18:10] ---
    The rest depends on you.
[18:13] ---
    Why don’t you believe
    in people a little?
[18:24] ---
    Idate…
[18:26] ---
    please run for this town.
[18:29] ---
    I beg you!
[18:31] ---
    Boss…
[18:34] ---
    Okay.
[18:35] ---
    Even in exchange for my life…
[18:48] ---
    Wow, I didn’t think it was going
    to be this big!
[18:53] ---
    But what kind of race is it?
[18:55] ---
    I’ll explain the course so
    a dummy like you can understand.
[19:00] ---
    The starting point is Degarashi Port.
[19:03] ---
    After the start, you head for
    Modoroki Shrine which is the midway point.
[19:06] ---
    This is Modoroki Shrine…?
[19:08] ---
    Yes… It seems the fastest way
    to get to Modoroki Shrine
[19:11] ---
    is to use a boat from here.
[19:14] ---
    Then you take one of two Ryuko's jewels
    from Modoroki Shrine and
[19:17] ---
    dedicate that jewel at the
    Todoroki Great Shrine on Ouzu Island.
[19:22] ---
    That's the only rule
    for the race.
[19:25] ---
    So shortcuts, obstructions,
    and secret maneuvers are all allowed.
[19:30] ---
    So hiring a Ninja is not
    a violation of the rule either.
[19:33] ---
    Who are the Ninja that
    the other side hired?
[19:37] ---
    They’re hiding somewhere
    and checking the situation.
[19:40] ---
    Don’t be careless, Naruto!
[19:41] ---
    R-Right!
[19:43] ---
    You guys can just relax and watch.
    Don’t follow me around!
[19:47] ---
    What?!
[19:48] ---
    I’m saying I don’t want
    an impediment.
[19:51] ---
    You!
[19:52] ---
    Calm down.
    Let’s join forces here.
[19:54] ---
    – Not with a guy like this!
    – Not with a guy like this!
[19:57] ---
    They seem to strangely be
    in harmony, these two.
[20:01] ---
    All right, everybody!
[20:02] ---
    The Todoroki Great Shrine Race
    will start soon!
[20:06] ---
    Wasabi Family's runner,
    ldate Morino!
[20:14] ---
    Idate…Morino?
[20:17] ---
    Wagarashi Family’s runner,
    Fukusuke Hikyakuya!
[20:28] ---
    On your mark!
[20:52] ---
    Start!
[20:55] ---
    All right! We’re going too!
[20:58] ---
    Wh-What the--?!
[21:02] ---
    Is he running away?!
[21:03] ---
    Where are you going, Idate?!
[21:05] ---
    Hey, wait!
[21:08] ---
    Wh-What is he doing…?
[21:13] ---
    Wait!
[21:19] ---
    I believe your promise,
    its a true heart give me courage
[21:24] ---
    Always I feel it
    the precious time with you
[21:28] ---
    On your still shoulder
[21:33] ---
    I feel the wind that blows
    towards tomorrow
[21:38] ---
    The city lights are like pieces of stars
[21:44] ---
    That hold us together
[21:49] ---
    “Each one of us glows differently,”
[21:58] ---
    you say laughingly
[22:01] ---
    but you look most dazzling
[22:07] ---
    Like a comet,
[22:11] ---
    like the rainbow after the storm
[22:18] ---
    You bring light into my heart
[22:26] ---
    Being lost can be the answer
[22:36] ---
    Let’s promise we won’t cheat
[22:44] ---
    Uh... like a shooting star,
    we do go ahead.
[22:51] ---
    What the heck is he thinking?!
    That idiot!
[22:53] ---
    So fast. He's moving at
    an incredible speed.
[22:57] ---
    Darn it! The opponent's already
    far out at sea!
[22:59] ---
    This is bad!
[23:00] ---
    If the distance between them gets
    any greater, it'll be impossible to win!
[23:03] ---
    That idiot!
[23:04] ---
    – Kick it up a notch, Sakura!
    – Right!
[23:06] ---
    We're gonna bring him back at all cost
    and make up the difference!
[23:10] ---
    Next time: "The Race is On!
    Trouble on the High Seas!"
[23:15] ---
    Don't miss it!
