**[00:01] ---**
Fly into the wavy and twisted sky,
into your hands
**[00:27] ---**
The distance created between us
became too big,
**[00:33] ---**
because we were always together
**[00:40] ---**
Your honest reply, “See you…”
**[00:45] ---**
coming from that brash mouth
makes it sadder.
**[00:51] ---**
If you are in an unfamiliar town, crying
**[00:58] ---**
Then I want to deliver you a smile,
even if I’m not by your side
**[01:05] ---**
Fly into the wavy and twisted sky,
into your hands
**[01:17] ---**
I can feel it so close,
**[01:24] ---**
Our two hearts
**[01:44] ---**
A Past to Be Erased
**[01:49] ---**
That mark…
**[01:51] ---**
I saw the same one on the guys
that attacked this village!
**[01:53] ---**
That’s a lie!
**[01:54] ---**
It’s not a lie! This mark…
**[01:58] ---**
Same from that night…
**[02:15] ---**
N-No! Spare me!
**[02:22] ---**
Stop!
**[02:42] ---**
This is the same mark from
that time.
**[02:45] ---**
No way!
**[02:46] ---**
But this wasn’t in
the medical team’s report.
**[02:50] ---**
Byakugan!
**[02:53] ---**
It seems this is a particular mark
that only emerges
**[02:56] ---**
when he sweats…
**[02:58] ---**
You guys get out!
**[03:00] ---**
Why?
**[03:02] ---**
I’m going to take care of him.
**[03:04] ---**
Say what?! I won’t let you do that!
**[03:07] ---**
Why do you protect him?
ls the Leaf Village also in cahoots?
**[03:11] ---**
No, that’s not it!
**[03:13] ---**
He doesn’t remember
a thing from the past…
**[03:17] ---**
He has no memory.
**[03:20] ---**
No memory?
**[03:22] ---**
It’s memory loss.
We came in search of his memory.
**[03:26] ---**
Then you should know now.
He’s a dirty bandit!
**[03:31] ---**
Whether or not he has a memory
makes no difference to me!
**[03:34] ---**
Calm down!
**[03:35] ---**
It would only be in vain
to kill someone
**[03:37] ---**
who has no memory of
committing a crime.
**[03:39] ---**
Shut up!
**[03:41] ---**
If you really want to have
your revenge,
**[03:43] ---**
do so as much as you like
after getting his memory back…
**[03:47] ---**
I won’t stop you at that time.
**[03:52] ---**
I won’t let you do that even if
he gets his memory back!
**[03:56] ---**
It’s as Neji says.
**[03:58] ---**
We’ll also find out the identity
of the guys who attacked
**[04:00] ---**
if his memory returns
and we get him to talk.
**[04:02] ---**
We might be able to save the village
if we can use him to cut a deal…
**[04:06] ---**
We have to keep him alive now.
We won’t run away or hide!
**[04:11] ---**
Keep quiet… He won’t let Menma live
unless we tell him this.
**[04:20] ---**
I’m going to sew up the wound.
Hold his arms and legs.
**[04:32] ---**
That girl is…
**[05:02] ---**
I just can’t believe it.
He’s the embodiment of good nature…
**[05:06] ---**
To think he’d be a comrade
of the bandits.
**[05:08] ---**
I wonder if he became a good guy
after losing his memory.
**[05:11] ---**
He just has the same mark as those guys
due to some sort of circumstance.
**[05:16] ---**
Even if he lost his memory,
**[05:18] ---**
he wouldn’t become this good-natured
of a guy if he was a bad person.
**[05:21] ---**
Either way, we’ll know everything
if he get his memory back.
**[05:26] ---**
I was…a comrade of the bandits,
wasn’t I?
**[05:30] ---**
You heard us talking earlier?
**[05:35] ---**
Don’t worry about it.
We don’t know any of the details. Okay?
**[05:43] ---**
Heal that wound for now…
**[05:54] ---**
I’m going to have
a look around the area.
**[05:56] ---**
You understand, right?
**[05:58] ---**
Your friends and that guy will die
if you try anything funny.
**[06:01] ---**
Do as you like when that happens.
**[07:13] ---**
It’s done…
**[07:20] ---**
Fuki…
**[07:23] ---**
You heard, didn’t you?
**[07:27] ---**
I can’t stand it, after all!
**[07:29] ---**
Let’s get him. Let’s avenge everyone!
**[07:31] ---**
Stop!
**[07:32] ---**
It’s still not certain that
Menma’s one of their comrades!
**[07:36] ---**
You’re just as much to blame
if you protect him!
**[07:38] ---**
– Right! – Right!
**[07:40] ---**
What’s the ruckus?!
**[07:41] ---**
Naruto?
**[07:43] ---**
Tenten…!
**[07:45] ---**
Why did you let him out of the hut?!
**[07:46] ---**
Sorry. I dozed off…
**[07:48] ---**
I got careless thinking
he couldn’t move…
**[07:52] ---**
Guys, stop! He has no memory!
**[07:56] ---**
So he doesn’t even know if
he’s one of their comrades or not…!
**[08:00] ---**
We warned you before!
**[08:01] ---**
You guys are just as much to blame
if you protect him any further!
**[08:06] ---**
Get them!
**[08:07] ---**
Stop it!
**[08:10] ---**
We should get away for now!
**[08:12] ---**
I’m…fine…
**[08:14] ---**
What?
**[08:15] ---**
Of course, everyone’s angry.
I…should be punished.
**[08:20] ---**
You’ll be killed!
**[08:21] ---**
That’s fine!
**[08:23] ---**
What’re you saying, Menma?!
**[08:29] ---**
Byakugan!
**[08:37] ---**
It’s them!
**[08:38] ---**
The bridge! Raise the bridge!
**[08:40] ---**
Right!
**[08:41] ---**
Got it!
**[09:06] ---**
Be careful of the Leaf Ninja and
secure an entrance route!
**[09:09] ---**
– Yes, sir! – Yes, sir!
**[09:10] ---**
Now’s our chance.
Everyone hide!
**[09:14] ---**
You, too!
**[09:16] ---**
We can take care of this ourselves!
**[09:20] ---**
Come on, Fuki!
**[09:32] ---**
They’ve come from two spots!
**[09:34] ---**
Where’d they go?!
**[09:36] ---**
They vanished.
**[09:38] ---**
Be quiet!
**[09:46] ---**
The wind…
**[09:49] ---**
I get it.
**[09:51] ---**
They’ve trapped us
in a Genjutsu
**[09:52] ---**
with a different tone mixed in
with the sound of the wind!
**[09:55] ---**
Be careful!
We’re now inside their Jutsu!
**[10:01] ---**
You noticed too late!
**[10:06] ---**
M-My body…
**[10:08] ---**
It’s heavy…
**[10:09] ---**
This is bad… Is it Paralysis?!
**[10:13] ---**
Canceling Sound!
**[10:18] ---**
The Paralysis is released.
**[10:21] ---**
You backstabber!
**[10:23] ---**
Here they come!
**[10:24] ---**
I’ll leave those guys to you!
**[10:27] ---**
Shadow Clone Jutsu!
**[10:30] ---**
It’s futile!
**[10:33] ---**
Heh, what’s the matter?
Finished already?!
**[10:37] ---**
I don’t even have a scratch on me…
**[10:41] ---**
This is what I was after!
**[10:44] ---**
Wha--?!
**[10:49] ---**
What’s happening?
I’m getting an amazing power.
**[10:51] ---**
Here I go!
**[10:53] ---**
Rotation!
**[10:56] ---**
Now, prepare yourself!
**[11:00] ---**
You won’t get away!
**[11:26] ---**
Here…
**[11:28] ---**
This is precious to you, right?
**[11:38] ---**
Behind you!
**[11:40] ---**
You jerk!
**[11:46] ---**
Your voice… It’s back!
**[11:48] ---**
Th-Thank you…
**[11:51] ---**
Now, let’s go back to the others.
**[11:54] ---**
Right.
**[11:58] ---**
Menma! You okay?
**[12:00] ---**
Yeah…
**[12:01] ---**
We took care of most of them!
**[12:04] ---**
What about their leader?
What about Shiin?!
**[12:08] ---**
I chased after him,
but he got away…
**[12:11] ---**
This is bad…
**[12:12] ---**
Now that Shiin knows the villagers
won’t abandon their homes and get out,
**[12:15] ---**
he’ll use his last resort.
**[12:19] ---**
There is a dam built upriver to secure
water resources during a drought.
**[12:24] ---**
There is enough water for the village
to last a year, even if it doesn’t rain.
**[12:30] ---**
The dam has been rigged to blow up
**[12:32] ---**
and to sweep away
the entire village with a flood.
**[12:37] ---**
All they care about
is the mine.
**[12:41] ---**
We can’t stop something like a flood
**[12:43] ---**
unless we move mountains
or something!
**[12:45] ---**
Mountains…
**[12:48] ---**
That’s it.
We should move mountains!
**[12:50] ---**
Naruto! Take me to the mine.
**[12:54] ---**
Wha--?
**[12:55] ---**
There should be a bunch of
Letter Bombs in the mine!
**[12:58] ---**
Letter Bombs?!
What’re you going to do with those?!
**[13:02] ---**
I’m going to blow up
the mine itself.
**[13:05] ---**
The crumbled dirt and sand will
fill up the valley
**[13:07] ---**
and the flood can be stopped.
**[13:15] ---**
Damn it! He’s started!
Let’s hurry, Menma!
**[13:18] ---**
Naruto… There’s something
I have to tell you.
**[13:23] ---**
Make it later!
**[13:25] ---**
I haven’t lost my memory.
**[13:28] ---**
Yeah… But stopping
the flood comes first!
**[13:32] ---**
No, I’d like you to listen now.
**[13:36] ---**
I lost my parents when I was little
and was raised in Shiin’s clan.
**[13:42] ---**
They were a small Shinobi clan even
in the Land of Rice Paddies.
**[13:46] ---**
But they still had ambitious plans…
**[13:51] ---**
However, a Shinobi village was created
in the Land of Rice Paddies
**[13:54] ---**
about a year ago.
**[13:55] ---**
It was the Village Hidden in the Sound.
**[13:58] ---**
The Village Hidden in the Sound!
**[14:00] ---**
Clan members confident in their skill
**[14:03] ---**
drifted over to Hidden Sound Village
one after another.
**[14:07] ---**
Eventually jobs from
the feudal lord stopped coming.
**[14:12] ---**
Shiin the leader of the clan that
had lost its means of livelihood
**[14:16] ---**
set his eyes on the mine in this village…
**[14:22] ---**
The plan was to just threaten
and chase off the villagers.
**[14:26] ---**
But I encountered
unexpected resistance,
**[14:30] ---**
and I got scared and tried to escape…
**[14:35] ---**
What’re you hesitating for?
Hurry up and take care of him.
**[14:39] ---**
Father! Father!
**[14:45] ---**
Stop it!
**[14:50] ---**
You… You jerk!
**[14:54] ---**
Look out!
**[15:03] ---**
I’m a member of a clan that
has committed crimes.
**[15:07] ---**
It would’ve been better if
I’d just died like that…
**[15:10] ---**
How easy things would’ve been
if I could’ve died then…
**[15:17] ---**
I got scared thinking about
the villagers who died…
**[15:21] ---**
I wanted to forget.
**[15:24] ---**
And so I cowardly escaped into
a Jutsu passed down through the clan
**[15:27] ---**
that erases memory.
**[15:30] ---**
However, the Jutsu didn’t work
very well…
**[15:34] ---**
I only temporarily lost my memory
and it came back in a few hours.
**[15:43] ---**
Then you had your memory
the whole time?!
**[15:47] ---**
I’m sorry…
**[15:49] ---**
Knock it off!
**[15:51] ---**
Then why didn’t you tell me about
that honestly from the start?!
**[15:55] ---**
If you had, it would’ve been…
**[15:57] ---**
I didn’t have the courage to make
the crimes of the clan public.
**[16:03] ---**
But I thought the clan must
not commit any further crimes.
**[16:10] ---**
So I pretended to lose
my memory.
**[16:13] ---**
And to prevent the clan from
adding to their crimes…
**[16:17] ---**
I wanted to bring some of you
Leaf Shinobi here
**[16:21] ---**
and have you help out.
**[16:23] ---**
I knew of Shiin’s next plan.
**[16:26] ---**
There must not be any
more village casualties.
**[16:30] ---**
Stopping that is my duty
for having survived.
**[16:35] ---**
Duty…?
**[16:36] ---**
I needed the help
of the Leaf Shinobi
**[16:39] ---**
before Shiin could
execute his next plan…
**[16:46] ---**
I wanted to round them all up
during the attack earlier.
**[16:51] ---**
But since things have come this far,
I’ll stop the flood.
**[16:56] ---**
Thanks, Naruto…
**[17:00] ---**
I leave Shiin to you.
Find and stop him, no matter what.
**[17:06] ---**
You… This…?
**[17:08] ---**
This is goodbye.
**[17:10] ---**
Somebody has to blow up
the Letter Bombs inside…
**[17:14] ---**
If you do that, you’ll…!
**[17:16] ---**
Thanks to you, my life has
taken on more meaning…
**[17:29] ---**
What’s that sound?
**[17:31] ---**
There are intermittent explosions
occurring upriver…
**[17:35] ---**
The village will be engulfed in
a mudslide if the dam breaks!
**[17:38] ---**
No…!
**[17:39] ---**
Neji…
**[17:56] ---**
It’s coming!
**[18:12] ---**
Goodbye…
**[18:13] ---**
Naruto…
**[18:20] ---**
Menma!
**[18:26] ---**
Wh-What happened…?
**[18:29] ---**
It seems the crumbled mountain
stopped the mudslide…
**[18:32] ---**
Then, that means the village is saved?
**[18:35] ---**
Yeah…
**[18:36] ---**
– Thank goodness!
– That’s a relief…
**[18:52] ---**
H-How can that be?!
**[18:56] ---**
Menma!!
**[19:06] ---**
That jerk…!
**[19:08] ---**
He won’t get away!
Shadow Clone Jutsu!
**[19:14] ---**
Hold it!
**[19:17] ---**
Interfering with our plan!
**[19:24] ---**
You think such a Jutsu will work
on me… Huh?!
**[19:31] ---**
Die!
**[19:35] ---**
I’ll stop you in Menma’s place!
**[19:39] ---**
What?!
**[19:40] ---**
Rasengan!
**[19:55] ---**
He sacrificed his life to save
the village, huh…?
**[19:59] ---**
No matter what his past was,
he was a good guy at heart…
**[20:03] ---**
Mister…
**[20:05] ---**
I wanted to say a word of apology.
**[20:08] ---**
Not being able to remember
anything until the end
**[20:12] ---**
might have been salvation for him…
**[20:28] ---**
It was a promise, right?
To eat this with you.
**[20:33] ---**
You don’t need
to say anything to him?
**[20:35] ---**
He’ll be fine if he has an appetite.
I know how he is.
**[20:39] ---**
He’ll overcome it on his own
as time passes.
**[20:43] ---**
For a while he’ll probably remember
each time he eats ramen…
**[20:47] ---**
That’s fine.
**[20:49] ---**
People can get stronger
precisely because
**[20:52] ---**
they have feelings
that are never forgotten…
**[20:54] ---**
That’s what’s called growth.
**[21:03] ---**
Damn… This is good!
**[21:13] ---**
Menma…
**[21:19] ---**
The Key to the rusted heart’s door
**[21:23] ---**
Will always be smiling right near by
**[21:35] ---**
Even if rains of spears were to fall,
I will run through it
**[21:39] ---**
Because I want to find the joy
without a shape
**[21:44] ---**
This big dream of mine that
cannot be translated to words,
**[21:49] ---**
I will make it come true,
even if it were to deepen my wounds
**[21:54] ---**
We stand here today because of
what we believed through,
**[21:59] ---**
That is why I will continue running forward,
never looking away
**[22:03] ---**
Even if I’m told that
there is no bright future
**[22:08] ---**
I’ll change it right away,
lighting it with all my feeling
**[22:15] ---**
The wind is probably testing our hearts
**[22:19] ---**
In my heart, I gently grasped my hands
**[22:24] ---**
You are probably searching for
the answer to your tears
**[22:28] ---**
Your dream is always waiting near by,
with the answers in its hands
**[22:33] ---**
The Key to the rusted heart’s door
**[22:38] ---**
Will always be smiling right near by
**[22:51] ---**
The Village Hidden in the Sand
requested an auxiliary force?
**[22:53] ---**
Ones who call themselves
the Four Celestials
**[22:55] ---**
took one of Sand Village’s Ninja
candidates as a hostage
**[22:57] ---**
and escaped towards
the Land of Fire.
**[23:00] ---**
Presently, Gaara and others
are chasing them.
**[23:02] ---**
That means an ambush, doesn’t it?
**[23:04] ---**
I will leave the strategy up to you.
**[23:05] ---**
Take some Genin you can use
and leave within half an hour.
**[23:09] ---**
– That’s all.
– Hold on please.
**[23:10] ---**
What is it?
**[23:11] ---**
Let me borrow Sakura.
**[23:13] ---**
Next time: “The Targeted Shukaku”
