[00:16] ---     Humans aren’t such a big deal [00:22] ---     Who needs tomorrow anyway, [00:26] ---     so don’t hide your fists [00:31] ---     You’re not old enough [00:33] ---     to sell your dreams away to uncertainty [00:40] ---     Hey boys, you’re the only ones [00:45] ---     who can pull the trigger in your heart [00:50] ---     All the kids said [00:52] ---     We’re living in this senseless, ridiculous, [00:55] ---     awesome world right at this moment, [00:59] ---     All the kids said [01:02] ---     Don’t forget every truth or lie [01:09] ---     All the kids said [01:11] ---     We’re way too young to die [01:14] ---     In this empty town lined with empty faces [01:19] ---     All the kids took off [01:21] ---     into this windless night [01:23] ---     Because they want to change something [01:58] ---     Huh, it’s Lady Tsunade. [02:01] ---     Huh? You guys are… [02:03] ---     Hey, are you visiting someone     at the hospital too? [02:06] ---     Yes. [02:07] ---     You too, Lady Tsunade? [02:09] ---     Well, I guess… [02:11] ---     She just doesn’t want to stay     in the executive office… [02:13] ---     Shut up! [02:15] ---     Hinata, don’t faint when     you see Kurenai Sensei. [02:19] ---     P-Please let's not talk about that. [02:22] ---     Did something happen? [02:23] ---     When we were visiting Naruto     in the hospital in the past… [02:25] ---     Shino! [02:26] ---     This girl fainted when she saw Naruto     all covered with bandages. [02:30] ---     Kiba! [02:31] ---     I’ll…I’ll be fine this time! [02:34] ---     I finally found you…! [02:36] ---     Old Lady Tsunade, I need     to talk to you! [02:45] ---     Huh? Hinata! [02:47] ---     Naruto… [02:48] ---     – Naruto is…so close!     – Hinata? Hinata! What's wrong? [02:53] ---     Your face looks a little red… [02:55] ---     Do you have a fever or something? Huh? [02:59] ---     Hey… [03:07] ---     H-Hey, Hinata…?! [03:09] ---     Hey Hinata! [03:11] ---     Are you okay?!     Get a hold of yourself! [03:14] ---     Hinata! [03:16] ---     Naruto… [03:18] ---     The Search for     the Rare Bikochu Beetle [03:32] ---     Hey, you woke up. [03:34] ---     So Mizuki didn’t know anything,     you said? [03:36] ---     Tsunade interrogated him herself. [03:40] ---     He didn’t have any information [03:42] ---     that would lead to Orochimaru’s     current whereabouts… [03:46] ---     After all, that guy was nothing but     a disposable pawn to Orochimaru, huh. [03:52] ---     So it seems… [03:53] ---     We still don’t know where     Sasuke went… [03:56] ---     And that’s the result after     a desperate fight with Mizuki… [04:00] ---     That can’t sit right with     Naruto either…huh? [04:04] ---     Please Old Lady Tsunade,     say it’s okay! [04:07] ---     When I say no, I mean no! [04:09] ---     As a result, Lady Tsunade wasn’t able     to concentrate on her work. [04:14] ---     Naruto’s been breathing down     her neck the whole time [04:17] ---     asking her to let him go off     in search of Sasuke. [04:19] ---     So she sneaked out     of her office, but… [04:23] ---     He was lying in wait for her here. [04:26] ---     Naruto… [04:28] ---     I’ve asked you numerous times already! [04:30] ---     Please let me go in search     of Sasuke! [04:33] ---     I’ve told you numerous times already.     lmpossible! [04:36] ---     Why! [04:38] ---     You have some training to do! [04:41] ---     I can’t because Pervy Sage     isn’t around! [04:44] ---     We have zero leads on either     Orochimaru and Sasuke. [04:48] ---     So how are you planning     to search for him? [04:49] ---     I can figure it out somehow! [04:52] ---     If there aren’t any leads,     I’ll go find some! [04:54] ---     So please let me go do it! [04:56] ---     You’re stubborn, aren't you? [04:58] ---     You’re stubborn too,     Old Lady Tsunade! [05:00] ---     – Please let me go!     – No, you may not! [05:02] ---     If I say I’m going, I’m going! [05:03] ---     Shut up! No means no! [05:11] ---     Byakugan! [05:17] ---     All right! Good work, Neji! [05:20] ---     Move in another half step     right there! [05:21] ---     Yes sir! [05:34] ---     Sorry to keep you waiting. [05:41] ---     Let’s take a break, Neji. [05:44] ---     Yes. [05:49] ---     Have some tea too. [05:52] ---     Thank you… [05:55] ---     If Hinata was here,     she should have observed a little. [06:01] ---     Hinata prepared this…? [06:04] ---     It would supplement her training     by observing… [06:24] ---     Byakugan! [06:41] ---     Let’s take a break. [06:42] ---     Yes. [06:43] ---     Food! Food! [06:48] ---     That was pretty well done. [06:50] ---     I would say that you’re getting closer     to perfecting the technique. [06:52] ---     It’s thanks to you both. [06:54] ---     You’re so kind to join me     in my special training every day… [06:58] ---     We’re a team. [06:59] ---     When a comrade in the team     is in a fix, [07:01] ---     one offers a helping hand. [07:03] ---     That’s only natural… [07:05] ---     A comrade… [07:08] ---     If a comrade suddenly disappears, [07:13] ---     it must be awfully hard. [07:17] ---     You’re talking about Naruto,     aren’t you? [07:22] ---     Isn't there some way     we could help him? [07:25] ---     I’d like to help him out in     some way too…but… [07:31] ---     Lady Hokage was telling Naruto… [07:34] ---     that there are no leads at all. [07:39] ---     There may be one resource… [07:42] ---     Really?! [07:45] ---     I’m talking about Bikochu. [07:47] ---     Bikochu? [07:50] ---     Are you talking about     those rare insects…?! [07:53] ---     I have heard that they had     become extinct some time ago. [07:56] ---     Since there was a possibility     that they could become extinct, [07:58] ---     the Aburame Clan discontinued     using them, [08:02] ---     so a miniscule number of them     should still be alive. [08:06] ---     Lady Tsunade, what are Bikochu? [08:09] ---     Well…it’s not surprising that     you don’t know about them. [08:13] ---     The last time that Bikochu     were used [08:15] ---     was before the last Great War… [08:19] ---     Bikochu are one kind of insect     used by insect handlers. [08:23] ---     Larvae which have hatched from eggs     become chrysalises in no time at all, [08:26] ---     then emerge and turn     into imagos. [08:29] ---     They are then made to     recognize scents… [08:31] ---     and they are able to track     even the faintest scent… [08:34] ---     to its source. [08:37] ---     Their olfactory sense is several thousand     times greater than a Ninja Hound's. [08:40] ---     They are insects capable of     exhibiting that skill in an exceptional way. [08:45] ---     However, Bikochu lay eggs     only once every several years… [08:51] ---     This year is actually the year     in which they lay eggs. [08:54] ---     And right now is exactly     the time when they hatch. [08:57] ---     I see. [08:58] ---     There are still some of     Sasuke’s belongings left in the village… [09:01] ---     Right? [09:02] ---     If one makes the Bikochu,     recognize that scent… [09:05] ---     We may be able to locate     Sasuke’s whereabouts, right? [09:11] ---     What is the probability     of finding a Bikochu? [09:14] ---     Frankly speaking, not very high.     Perhaps 10%. [09:19] ---     10% huh… [09:29] ---     As you guys know, [09:31] ---     the situation in the village     is currently very grave… [09:35] ---     We don’t have the leeway of allowing     even Genin to sit around and play. [09:39] ---     However, fortunately or unfortunately,     Kurenai has been hospitalized, [09:43] ---     so you guys, Squad Eight,     no longer have a mission. [09:48] ---     Rather than just letting     you sit around and play, [09:50] ---     I’d rather place my bet     on that 10% possibility. [09:54] ---     Huh… you mean… [09:58] ---     Shino Aburame. Kiba Inuzuka.     Hinata Hyuga. [10:01] ---     I order you to search for     the Bikochu! [10:04] ---     – All right! – All right! [10:06] ---     I designate Shino     as the leader this time. [10:08] ---     And…that spy up there! [10:17] ---     Oww…! [10:19] ---     Naruto… [10:20] ---     You’re going to go even if     I try to stop you, right? [10:22] ---     Yup! [10:24] ---     In that case, I have no choice     but to let you go… [10:27] ---     However… [10:29] ---     This is your last chance. [10:31] ---     If you don’t find the Bikochu… [10:34] ---     you must give up on Sasuke! [10:36] ---     Wha--? [10:37] ---     You understand?! [10:38] ---     It’ll be fine…     I’ll find it without fail. [10:42] ---     All right. You won’t go back     on your word, right? [10:44] ---     Yeah! Leave it to me! [10:48] ---     You’re easily pleased, aren’t you? [10:50] ---     Owww! [10:53] ---     Naruto… [11:09] ---     Sasuke… [11:17] ---     Hinata. [11:20] ---     Good morning. [11:23] ---     Neji will be here soon     for his training… [11:25] ---     Please prepare tea as always. [11:27] ---     Well… [11:28] ---     Huh? What’s the matter? [11:30] ---     I need to go…     on a mission starting now… [11:33] ---     A mission, huh… [11:34] ---     In that case, it can’t be helped… [11:36] ---     I’m heading out… [11:39] ---     Don’t be a burden to the others. [11:44] ---     Yes, sir! [11:57] ---     I’m…I’m sorry! I’m in a hurry… [12:03] ---     The way she handled     her physical response just now… [12:06] ---     Hinata… [12:10] ---     You’re late, Hinata! [12:13] ---     I’m sorry! [12:16] ---     All right then! Let’s head out! [12:19] ---     Let’s go! [12:23] ---     Huh? [12:24] ---     Why are you walking at     such a leisurely pace?! [12:27] ---     It takes a Shinobi two days on foot [12:29] ---     to get to the habitat of     the Bikochu … [12:32] ---     There’s no need to make haste     from the very start. [12:38] ---     But what if the eggs hatch     before we get there? [12:42] ---     The eggs of Bikochu only hatch     on the day after it’s rained… [12:46] ---     There’s no sign of it     raining any time soon… [12:48] ---     But…if by some remote chance… [12:50] ---     Naruto. [12:51] ---     Wh-What is it? [12:52] ---     I am the leader of this team. [12:55] ---     While we are on this mission,     you will obey the orders of your leader. [13:04] ---     Kiba, I can’t believe you’re able     to work with that kind of guy… [13:09] ---     Well, I’ve gotten used to it… [13:12] ---     I’m sure you’ll bond with him too, Naruto. [13:16] ---     I wonder about that… [13:25] ---     Naruto and the others     left a while ago. [13:28] ---     I see. [13:30] ---     Didn’t you want to go too? [13:34] ---     When it comes to searching     for insects, [13:35] ---     Shino, who’s an insect handler,     is number one… [13:38] ---     And then Hinata who has Byakugan… [13:40] ---     and Kiba and Akamaru who have     sensitive noses are there too… [13:43] ---     So there’s really no role that     I could play! [13:46] ---     What I must do right now… [13:48] ---     is to become a Medical Ninja     as soon as I possibly can! [14:01] ---     What’s the matter, Shino?! [14:02] ---     The sun’s going down.     We’re setting up camp. [14:05] ---     Got it. [14:06] ---     – Huh? – Okay. [14:07] ---     Huh? What…?! [14:08] ---     We’re gonna set up     camp already?! [14:11] ---     I’m not tired at all yet!     Let’s go further! [14:16] ---     Naruto, the leader of     this team is me. [14:21] ---     I-I understand! [14:25] ---     Okay then…let’s sleep. [14:26] ---     Huh…we’re gonna sleep already?! [14:29] ---     Many animals and plants     go to sleep at sunset [14:33] ---     and awake at sunrise. [14:35] ---     In order to search for insects, [14:36] ---     we must understand the rhythm     of living creatures with our own bodies… [14:40] ---     But…the sun’s just set… [14:44] ---     Naruto, I am the leader of this team… [14:46] ---     Okay, okay. I got it! [14:51] ---     There’s no way     I can sleep so early… [14:57] ---     Yeah, right… [14:58] ---     All that complaining and guess     who's the first one to fall asleep? [15:32] ---     I have to pee… [15:45] ---     Huh? [15:46] ---     Huh? [15:48] ---     What’s that? [15:59] ---     It’s a waterfall… [16:02] ---     Hey… Is somebody there? [16:27] ---     S-Say… [16:32] ---     Damn it…! [16:34] ---     S-Sorry. Did I scare you? [16:37] ---     Huh? [16:41] ---     There’s nobody there… [16:51] ---     Huh, Naruto…     Did you catch a cold? [16:53] ---     Yeah…a little… [16:58] ---     After sleeping so much     you’re still tired? [17:01] ---     Well, uh… [17:02] ---     When I woke up last night to pee,     I saw something awesome… [17:06] ---     Did you catch a cold too, Hinata? [17:08] ---     No, I’m okay… [17:10] ---     And…what was that awesome thing? [17:12] ---     It was a beautiful woman     in the middle of the waterfall! [17:15] ---     Huh? [17:17] ---     When that person moved her arms,     the water would suddenly move too! [17:21] ---     It was awesome! [17:23] ---     And what happened then… [17:24] ---     When I tried to speak to her,     she suddenly vanished. [17:28] ---     You must have been dreaming     or something. [17:33] ---     It's starting to feel that way… [17:35] ---     You idiot! [17:37] ---     Your face is red, Hinata. [17:40] ---     You might have really     caught a cold. [17:42] ---     Huh…really, I’m fine… [17:49] ---     This fruit is edible.     This will be our meal today. [17:53] ---     Got it. [17:56] ---     We can save on     our food supplies too. [17:59] ---     There’s one thing     I need to warn you about. [18:02] ---     On rare occasions, this fruit grows     to the size of a human being. [18:05] ---     However, those fruits     are damaged inside. [18:07] ---     Don’t tamper with them     under any circumstance. [18:09] ---     There’s nobody who would     eat something that huge. [18:12] ---     N-Naruto…! [18:15] ---     He’s eating it… [18:25] ---     Naruto… We’re going on ahead… [18:27] ---     I’ll…I’ll be right behind you! [18:30] ---     Sorry to keep you waiting! [18:36] ---     Wait just a second! [19:04] ---     Hey…aren’t we there yet? [19:09] ---     Yes. [19:11] ---     We're here! [19:12] ---     What…? [19:20] ---     Wow! [19:23] ---     I’ve never seen anything     like this before. [19:26] ---     This certainly isn’t a place     where humans could inhabit. [19:29] ---     That’s right…     That’s why it’s paradise for insects. [19:33] ---     D-Don’t tell me… [19:36] ---     Could it be that…over there…? [19:39] ---     You mean that’s where     the Bikochu are? [19:41] ---     No problem.     lt’s better than the Chunin Exam. [19:49] ---     Damn…The foothold crumbles easily… [19:53] ---     – Naruto… – What? [19:55] ---     As the leader, I’m warning you… [19:58] ---     At a time like this,     what is it?! [20:00] ---     Don’t fall. [20:01] ---     I already know that     without your telling me! [20:06] ---     Naruto! [20:09] ---     No way…! [20:16] ---     That was close… [20:20] ---     Those were insects, huh… [20:22] ---     That’s why I warned you. [20:25] ---     When this mission is over, [20:26] ---     I’m definitely gonna kick     that guy’s butt! [20:35] ---     This is…the Bikochu forest. [20:42] ---     Let’s go. [20:54] ---     There’s no mistake.     Those are Leaf Shinobi. [20:58] ---     The fact that those guys came to     a place like this [21:00] ---     means their objective is… [21:02] ---     Yeah…it’s the same as ours…     the Bikochu. [21:07] ---     We’re not gonna let them     take any Bikochu. [21:09] ---     The Bikochu, …     belong to us, the Kamizuru Clan! [21:28] ---     Crappy news pass us by [21:32] ---     And you become speechless [21:37] ---     My voice is way too soft [21:42] ---     So you don’t answer [21:46] ---     You’re crying Crying alone [21:51] ---     What can I do? I’m crying too [21:56] ---     “Let my lonely scream ring out     through the night” [21:58] ---     I’ll thrash this confused era     with my speed Yeah [22:07] ---     And I’ll thrash this confused night     with my speed Yeah [22:17] ---     I’ll thrash them with my piercing guitar     and my speed Yeah [22:26] ---     This sinking world and its evil bastards,     I’ll kick their butt Yeah [22:51] ---     Huh! If you’re talking about     the insect in this photograph, [22:53] ---     I’m very familiar with it. [22:54] ---     – Huh? – Really?! [22:55] ---     Damn…Don’t tell me     that was a Bikochu? [23:00] ---     Where did you see it? [23:01] ---     I heard some rustling in the kitchen     in the middle of the night, [23:03] ---     and I unintentionally threw     a slipper at it… [23:04] ---     Wait a second… [23:05] ---     N-Naruto… [23:07] ---     What you’re talking about     is an ordinary cockroach. [23:11] ---     Next episode: “What’s the Difference?     Don’t All Insects Look Alike?”
