[00:15] ---
    Connecting old words
    that have been used up
[00:21] ---
    I just want to convey
    my simple thoughts
[00:29] ---
    That day's faint wind blows away
[00:34] ---
    at the castle ruins of yesterday
[00:40] ---
    I'll laugh with you
    and live for the moment
[00:45] ---
    Still that incident
    will continue to trouble you, right?
[00:54] ---
    That's why it must be good-bye
[00:57] ---
    Leaving nothing behind,
    let us share what is left
[01:04] ---
    In time, we'll realize
    that it was everything
[01:11] ---
    And sadness will touch our cheeks,
    creating a river of tears
[01:18] ---
    Trembling thoughts swept into a vortex
    and melting away
[01:42] ---
    That form…?!
[02:25] ---
    So that’s the extent of
    the rumored “Absolute Defense”?
[02:34] ---
    How disappointing.
[02:46] ---
    I see… You were wearing sand, eh?
[02:50] ---
    Your opponent’s not just him!
[02:52] ---
    I’m here, too!
[03:12] ---
    Th-That attack just now…
[03:13] ---
    It would’ve been dangerous
    had I not been protected by sand.
[03:19] ---
    M-My body is still…
[03:23] ---
    I’ll just be a hindrance like this.
[03:29] ---
    Annoying sand…
[03:32] ---
    You’re first, Gaara.
[03:56] ---
    He yanked out his spinal column?!
[04:01] ---
    Vengeful Strike:
     The Bracken Dance
[04:12] ---
    Dance of the Clematis Flower.
[04:15] ---
    Vine!
[04:27] ---
    Flower!
[04:35] ---
    A bone of the strongest calcification…
[04:38] ---
    It will pierce you,
    sand defense and all…
[04:44] ---
    No time…huh?
[04:53] ---
    Ultimate Defense: Shukaku’s Shield!
[05:06] ---
    Kabuto…
[05:08] ---
    How much longer will
    Kimimaro hold out for?
[05:11] ---
    I think he should still
    be okay for a while…
[05:17] ---
    I did all I could with the treatment…
[05:20] ---
    But there’s not nearly enough
    information about his body.
[05:25] ---
    I think it’d be quite different
     if we had something
[05:29] ---
    like the medical history
    and treatment data of his clan.
[05:34] ---
    What came out after looking into it
[05:36] ---
    was the bloody history of how
    the Kaguya Clan became just him…
[05:52] ---
    Fools who provoked the great land of
    the Village Hidden in the Mist into battle
[05:56] ---
    with just their clan
    and were annihilated.
[06:02] ---
    The Kaguya Clan was
    a foolish clan that liked battle.
[06:07] ---
    The battlefield was the only place
    where they could be at peace.
[06:12] ---
    But it was long ago when
    a simple-minded group
[06:15] ---
    that only enjoyed slaughter
    was acceptable…
[06:19] ---
    The times are different now.
[06:22] ---
    Doing something like fighting
    only with power
[06:26] ---
    against a governed organization
    like the Mist…
[06:28] ---
    can only be called an act of fools
    rushing towards death.
[06:35] ---
    And then you saved only he
    who was the youngest
[06:38] ---
    and the most exceptional
    among the Kaguya Clan…
[06:46] ---
    That kid possessed the power that
    would be feared even by the fighting clan.
[06:52] ---
    So it seems he was kept
    in prison the whole time.
[06:56] ---
    It would’ve been a waste to let him…die.
[07:00] ---
    Who wouldn’t want
    that rare Kekkei Genkai?
[07:05] ---
    He possesses a strong
    and firm bone structure
[07:07] ---
    and a defensive power to
    repel all kinds of physical attacks.
[07:12] ---
    And if turned to offense…
[07:15] ---
    the bones become
    a most powerful weapon.
[07:30] ---
    It’s because I’ve fought him once
    that I understand this.
[07:32] ---
    That sand shield is
    an absolute defense, no less.
[07:36] ---
    And that unusual form…
[07:38] ---
    It’ll be okay.
    There’s no way it’ll be broken!
[08:20] ---
    It’s hard…
[08:22] ---
    I gathered minerals with
    great hardness from the ground,
[08:25] ---
    applied pressure with Chakra
    and mixed them into the sand.
[08:38] ---
    You… that unusual Jutsu…
[08:42] ---
    It’s the Kekkei Genkai, right?
[08:45] ---
    The Kaguya Clan…
[08:48] ---
    The ability which now
    only I possess.
[08:52] ---
    The last one of the clan, eh?
[08:54] ---
    Then it’ll die out here today.
[08:59] ---
    Indeed, that might happen.
[09:02] ---
    Due to sickness,
    my body will not last so long…
[09:07] ---
    But, the clan will not die out.
[09:14] ---
    Besides I’m not alone.
[09:28] ---
    This is the “Earth” Curse Mark…
[09:31] ---
    With this…
[09:32] ---
    I can become a part of you,
    Lord Orochimaru.
[09:36] ---
    Let’s get everything, Kimimaro.
[09:39] ---
    And let’s see the truth of
    this world together.
[09:44] ---
    Yes.
[09:46] ---
    You’re my “Vessel of Dreams.”
[09:50] ---
    I’m counting on you.
[09:53] ---
    They are presents from me.
    I hope you like them.
[10:09] ---
    Would you rather…die or obey?
[10:15] ---
    Obey…
[10:17] ---
    You will!
[10:35] ---
    Is this the best a team
    of four can do?
[10:41] ---
    I’ll ask just once more…
[10:44] ---
    Which would you rather choose?
[10:52] ---
    Very well…
[10:53] ---
    As of now, we’re the Sound Ninja Five.
[11:04] ---
    Not alone, you said…?
[11:06] ---
    That’s right…
[11:07] ---
    As an existence shouldering
    one part of Lord Orochimaru’s ambition…
[11:14] ---
    I will remain inside
    Lord Orochimaru’s soul…
[11:17] ---
    for all eternity.
[11:21] ---
    Orochimaru’s brainwashing, huh…?
[11:25] ---
    You’re a pitiful guy.
[11:38] ---
    I used my big moves too much.
    I don’t have much Chakra.
[11:42] ---
    This is the last of it.
[11:53] ---
    What an amount of Chakra…
[12:06] ---
    You are something…
[12:13] ---
    I’ll sink and confine you
    200 meters into the ground.
[12:17] ---
    By the pressure of the sand
    stuck to your body,
[12:20] ---
    you’ll soon be unable to move,
    not even a finger…
[12:37] ---
    You did it…!
    This time for sure you did it.
[12:50] ---
    Dance…
[12:53] ---
    Bracken Dance!
[13:17] ---
    It is annoying…
[13:21] ---
    It feels like a long time
[13:23] ---
    when waiting eagerly for
    something you want.
[13:26] ---
    Kabuto…
[13:28] ---
    Stop talking like
    you’re humoring a child!
[13:32] ---
    I’m sorry…
[13:34] ---
    But you should know
    this the most, Lord Orochimaru.
[13:39] ---
    Nobody can beat Kimimaro,
[13:42] ---
    no matter what hindrance
    should appear.
[13:49] ---
    Thanks for saving me…
[13:51] ---
    Being able to do something like this;
    very impressive.
[13:55] ---
    All I did was ride the sand
    I’m always controlling.
[13:58] ---
    You just have to know how you use it.
[14:04] ---
    Lord Orochimaru…
[14:08] ---
    I’m sorry, Lord Orochimaru…
[14:20] ---
    At last… The destruction of
     the Leaf will begin…
[14:23] ---
    Third Hokage…
    I’ll teach you a thing or two.
[14:41] ---
    Sorry to keep you waiting.
[14:49] ---
    What’s the matter, Kimimaro?
[14:53] ---
    No… It’s nothing.
[15:08] ---
    Even the Kazekage of
    the Hidden Sand Village
[15:11] ---
    is no match against us.
[15:17] ---
    Of course…
[15:20] ---
    Kimimaro, it’s thanks to you…
[15:26] ---
    Kimimaro!
[15:27] ---
    Kimimaro, so you can’t go on, huh?
[15:32] ---
    I’m sorry, Lord Orochimaru.
[15:47] ---
    If I can’t be of use…
[15:51] ---
    then there’s no significance
    to my living.
[15:57] ---
    How is your condition, Kimimaro?
[16:01] ---
    The “Destruction of the Leaf”
    resulted in an unfortunate near-miss.
[16:05] ---
    But the Sound Ninja Four
    have gone to pick up a new vessel…
[16:12] ---
    Lord Orochimaru’s new
     “Vessel of Dreams.”
[16:19] ---
    Orochimaru’s brainwashing, huh…?
[16:23] ---
    You’re a pitiful guy…
[16:26] ---
    You’re wrong… Far from it!
[16:29] ---
    There’s no significance to living…
[16:36] ---
    But…you might be able to discover
    something interesting
[16:39] ---
    by continuing to live…
[16:43] ---
    Like how you discovered that flower…
[16:48] ---
    Like how I discovered you.
[16:54] ---
    This is the “Earth” Curse Mark!
[16:58] ---
    With this… I can become
    a part of you, Lord Orochimaru.
[17:02] ---
    Let’s get everything, Kimimaro…
[17:06] ---
    And let’s see the truth of
    this world together.
[17:18] ---
    I’m going to discover
    the truth of this world!
[17:23] ---
    With Lord Orochimaru!
[17:32] ---
    He was a persistent guy,
    but this is the end.
[17:36] ---
    He won’t ever come out again.
[17:39] ---
    R-Right…
[17:45] ---
    I can’t go on…
[17:48] ---
    We’re getting off…
[17:50] ---
    It’s not brainwashing!
[17:53] ---
    That person…
    Lord Orochimaru understands me!
[18:01] ---
    What do you guys know?!
[18:28] ---
    He’s dead…
[18:33] ---
    Could it be? Has Kimimaro…?
[18:37] ---
    The likes of Kimimaro makes
    no difference now…
[18:43] ---
    Sasuke… I can hardly wait for him.
[18:48] ---
    He’ll come here even by himself…
[18:56] ---
    I would have been totally hammered.
[19:00] ---
    That’s not the case.
[19:02] ---
    My sensei said it often…
[19:05] ---
    Luck is also a part of strength.
[19:07] ---
    That backseat driver?
[19:10] ---
    He’s not a backseat driver!
[19:12] ---
    It’s because…
[19:17] ---
    I wasn’t good enough at that time!
[19:23] ---
    I’m grateful for you saving me.
[19:26] ---
    But please don’t talk like that
    about my sensei!
[19:31] ---
    You, too…?
[19:35] ---
    When you feel that
[19:37] ---
    the honor of someone you revere
    has been hurt,
[19:40] ---
    you yourself are hurt badly
    and become enraged.
[19:43] ---
    The more important the person
    you revere is to you,
[19:45] ---
    the greater the feeling…
[19:48] ---
    The clan won’t die out…
    I’m not alone.
[19:52] ---
    I will remain inside
    Lord Orochimaru’s soul for all eternity.
[19:56] ---
    That person,
    Lord Orochimaru, understands me!
[20:01] ---
    What do you guys know?!
[20:06] ---
    Fighting for the sake of someone
    important to you…
[20:11] ---
    He was also the same
    as Naruto Uzumaki…
[20:18] ---
    But…the person who is important
    to oneself
[20:22] ---
    might not always be “virtuous.”
[20:25] ---
    I wonder…
[20:26] ---
    There’s no way someone evil
    can be thought of as an important person.
[20:30] ---
    No. Even if you know they’re “evil”…
[20:37] ---
    People can’t defeat solitude…
[20:55] ---
    Sasuke!
[21:24] ---
    For the first time, I spoke to you
[21:26] ---
    And you smiled
[21:30] ---
    For the first time, I was able to speak
[21:32] ---
    In my own words
[21:35] ---
    Would you think it was
    a bother if I approached you?
[21:41] ---
    Despite my doubts,
    I worked up my courage
[21:46] ---
    My clumsy attempts with words
[21:52] ---
    You listened without turning away
[21:58] ---
    No wonder I get carried away by you
[22:04] ---
    But you don’t feel anything for me, do you?
[22:11] ---
    I feel so sad
[22:14] ---
    But…
[22:15] ---
    For the first time, I spoke to you
[22:17] ---
    And you smiled
[22:20] ---
    For the first time, I was able to speak
[22:23] ---
    In my own words
[22:26] ---
    For the first time, I spoke to you
[22:29] ---
    And you smiled
[22:32] ---
    For the first time, I was able to speak
[22:34] ---
    In my own words
[22:37] ---
    For the first time, I spoke to you
[22:50] ---
    You gotta be kidding me!
[22:52] ---
    What do you mean
    “for achieving your goal”?!
[22:54] ---
    Orochimaru wants you
    only as a “vessel”!
[22:59] ---
    There’s no way
     I can let you go to him!
[23:02] ---
    This is no joke!
[23:04] ---
    If you insist on going,
    I have to take you back by force!
[23:12] ---
