**[00:06] ---**
Press down hard on the gas
**[00:09] ---**
That’s right, there’s no compromise
**[00:13] ---**
We'll slip through the night
**[00:17] ---**
At the final moment push hard
**[00:20] ---**
That's right, all the way to zero,
**[00:24] ---**
Until we wipe away the days
**[00:29] ---**
Gently open your heart
**[00:35] ---**
If you pull it close to you
**[00:40] ---**
It will reach you, without a doubt
**[00:43] ---**
It will come, closer
**[00:44] ---**
Now
**[00:55] ---**
We’re speeding through life,
squeezing it for all of its worth
**[01:01] ---**
Our feet are tied
**[01:02] ---**
But we still keep going farther
**[01:06] ---**
Even if I take it back, and grasp it
**[01:11] ---**
If you’re not the one
**[01:13] ---**
There will be no meaning
**[01:14] ---**
And so we’ll go far off into the distance.
**[01:47] ---**
Ugh... what are you here for now?
**[01:50] ---**
It’s our reunion after so long,
and you’re awfully cold.
**[01:56] ---**
Don’t tell me that you came to
assassinate Lord Hokage?
**[02:00] ---**
No, no…
**[02:02] ---**
I don’t have enough
subordinates for that yet...
**[02:04] ---**
I’ve heard of the excellence ones
of this village
**[02:07] ---**
and thought I’d put dibs on them.
**[02:14] ---**
A little while ago, I gave that
same Curse Mark as a present.
**[02:21] ---**
There’s a kid that I want.
**[02:24] ---**
Selfish as always.
**[02:26] ---**
That kid will die.
**[02:28] ---**
Certainly…
**[02:29] ---**
The odds are 1 in 10
that he’ll survive,
**[02:33] ---**
but he may survive just like you did.
**[02:37] ---**
This kid, you really like him, huh?
**[02:41] ---**
Are you jealous?
**[02:43] ---**
Are you still holding a grudge that
I used you and threw you away?
**[02:52] ---**
Unlike you, that kid will excel...
**[02:56] ---**
For one thing, he inherited
the Uchiha ability.
**[03:01] ---**
He has beautiful features
**[03:03] ---**
and is a vessel who
can become my heir.
**[03:06] ---**
If that kid lived,
it makes things interesting.
**[03:11] ---**
Be sure not to cancel this test.
**[03:16] ---**
Three from my village are also
under your care…
**[03:20] ---**
Make me enjoy it.
**[03:25] ---**
If something happens
to deprive me of my fun,
**[03:30] ---**
consider it the end of Leaf Village.
**[03:51] ---**
We’ve secured food and water
after spending half a day.
**[03:55] ---**
And now most teams have halted activity.
**[03:59] ---**
As we planned,
this is the time that we attack.
**[04:02] ---**
We'll split up into three
and go scouting.
**[04:05] ---**
However, whether we find
other teams or not,
**[04:09] ---**
we return to this place.
**[04:12] ---**
Got it?
**[04:14] ---**
Okay.
**[04:15] ---**
Roger.
**[04:16] ---**
Okay. Scatter!
**[04:24] ---**
Bushy-Brow’s Pledge:
Undying Love and Protection!
**[05:23] ---**
I can’t fall asleep...
**[05:28] ---**
I need to protect these two.
**[05:42] ---**
I slept great!
**[05:43] ---**
Naruto!
**[05:47] ---**
Sasuke!
**[05:48] ---**
Did you take care of us?
**[05:51] ---**
Thank you, Sakura!
**[05:53] ---**
We’re totally better because of you!
**[05:57] ---**
That’s good...
**[06:03] ---**
A prey must always stay tense
and flee desperately
**[06:10] ---**
in front of the predator!
**[06:23] ---**
My voice is gone!
**[06:37] ---**
It was just a dream...
**[06:44] ---**
Is it daybreak already?!
**[06:48] ---**
No, no way!
**[07:04] ---**
A squirrel?
**[07:05] ---**
Don’t surprise me like that!
**[07:09] ---**
Oh!
**[07:13] ---**
That was too close.
**[07:16] ---**
Do you think she noticed?
**[07:17] ---**
The Paper Bomb we put on the squirrel...
**[07:20] ---**
No, that’s not it.
**[07:22] ---**
Huh? Then what? What was it?
**[07:26] ---**
We’ll probably find out if we go closer.
**[07:30] ---**
So... we should get going now.
**[07:52] ---**
If I can catch all twenty of these leaves
before they hit the ground
**[07:56] ---**
Sakura will start to like me.
**[08:00] ---**
If... if I can’t catch
even one of the leaves...!
**[08:03] ---**
It’ll be an unanswered love forever.
Or rather…
**[08:07] ---**
You’re too Bushy!
**[08:09] ---**
That’s what she’ll say.
**[08:13] ---**
One, two, three, four...
five, six, seven, eight...
**[08:15] ---**
nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen,
fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen,
**[08:18] ---**
nine--! Ugh, nineteen...
**[08:23] ---**
One more!
**[08:27] ---**
That’s…!
**[08:35] ---**
Phew... just in time.
**[08:38] ---**
This is called a Paper Bomb
and it explodes after some time.
**[08:43] ---**
Who did such an awful thing?
**[08:53] ---**
Stop hiding and come out.
**[08:56] ---**
Shoot! We scrambled to hide, you know?!
**[08:59] ---**
Man, he’s a damn pain
and we've been discovered!
**[09:03] ---**
Strategy One, “hide and let it pass,”
was a failure!
**[09:07] ---**
So now we carry out Strategy Two!
**[09:10] ---**
Huh? Are you serious?
**[09:13] ---**
What? You have a problem with that?
**[09:16] ---**
There’s no question of success.
**[09:18] ---**
Well, I guess it’s all right but...
**[09:22] ---**
Wow! To meet last year’s Number One
rookie, Neji Hyuga, in a place like this!
**[09:28] ---**
C-Can I have your autograph?
**[09:31] ---**
So it’s just you guys?
**[09:33] ---**
Take that! Strategy Two, “head over heals
infatuation with my sex appeal”!
**[09:38] ---**
I’d been wanting to meet you
for some time, you know?
**[09:44] ---**
Get lost!
**[09:48] ---**
Why? Why doesn’t my sexiness work?!
**[09:51] ---**
Shoot, it ticks me off, darn!
**[09:57] ---**
Did you just raise your fists to me,
and does that mean you want to fight?
**[10:02] ---**
N-No... Of course not.
**[10:07] ---**
Then get lost.
**[10:09] ---**
Stealing a scroll from cowardly wimps
like you
**[10:12] ---**
would only make me
the laughing stock of the village.
**[10:15] ---**
Y-Yes!
**[10:17] ---**
Huh... Really just like cockroaches.
**[10:26] ---**
Just as I thought.
**[10:28] ---**
A fellow like that wouldn’t take
a scroll away from wimps like us
**[10:32] ---**
unless we were to turn on him.
**[10:35] ---**
All right! Let’s go find some wimps!
**[10:39] ---**
Like I’ve been saying
there’s no one wimpier than us...
**[10:55] ---**
So a no-sleep lookout?
**[10:58] ---**
But it’s not necessary anymore.
**[11:01] ---**
Wake Sasuke up.
We want to battle with him.
**[11:07] ---**
Y-You bastards…
**[11:12] ---**
What’re you saying?
**[11:13] ---**
What is it you’re after?
**[11:15] ---**
I know the one called Orochimaru
is calling the shots from the shadows!
**[11:18] ---**
Huh?!
**[11:20] ---**
What’s that strange bruise on
the back of Sasuke’s neck?
**[11:23] ---**
You did this to Sasuke.
**[11:25] ---**
How can you say you want to fight him?!
**[11:28] ---**
I wonder…what he has on his mind?
**[11:35] ---**
However, I can’t stay quiet
after hearing that.
**[11:38] ---**
I will kill this girl,
I’ll also kill this Sasuke character.
**[11:47] ---**
Wait, Zaku.
**[11:49] ---**
Huh? What is it?
**[11:54] ---**
It’s so cliché.
**[11:56] ---**
It’s the color of dirt
that’s just been dug up.
**[11:59] ---**
This grass, it doesn’t grow in
a place like this, does it?
**[12:03] ---**
Darn!
**[12:04] ---**
You know, with a trap...
**[12:06] ---**
there’s no point unless you
make it so it’s not discovered.
**[12:12] ---**
Huh, how ridiculous!
**[12:14] ---**
So that Kunai knife was so the squirrel
wouldn’t be caught in the trap ?
**[12:19] ---**
We kill her now!
**[12:25] ---**
A log?!
**[12:26] ---**
A trap above too? Watch out!
**[12:29] ---**
Just kidding.
**[12:33] ---**
What?!
**[12:34] ---**
Clearly you have no talent.
**[12:37] ---**
Someone like you needs to
make more of an effort or else!
**[12:42] ---**
Leaf Hurricanes!
**[12:50] ---**
What?! This guy...
**[12:53] ---**
Then you also should... make an effort!
**[12:57] ---**
Who are you?
**[12:58] ---**
I’m the beautiful blue beast
of Leaf Village, Rock Lee!
**[13:17] ---**
Why are you here?
**[13:19] ---**
I will always appear...
**[13:21] ---**
whenever you’re in trouble!
**[13:27] ---**
Or should I say...
**[13:28] ---**
It was really because of you,
now run along.
**[13:38] ---**
But right now, I’m also
your enemy!
**[13:42] ---**
I did say this once before, didn’t I?
**[13:47] ---**
That I’ll protect you until I die.
**[13:52] ---**
Please go out with me!
**[13:54] ---**
I’ll protect you until I die!
**[13:58] ---**
Oh...
**[14:00] ---**
T-Thanks.
**[14:02] ---**
Yes!
**[14:03] ---**
Perfect! I did it!
Gu Sensei, that was perfect!
**[14:10] ---**
I guess it can’t be helped...
**[14:12] ---**
Zaku. I’ll give you Sasuke.
**[14:17] ---**
I will kill them!
**[14:20] ---**
As far as I can tell,
Sakura is in no condition to fight.
**[14:24] ---**
That Bushy-Brow guy is
pretty proficient with Taijutsu...
**[14:28] ---**
Looks like I can have some fun!
**[14:40] ---**
There is a trick to your attack, isn’t there?
**[14:44] ---**
I won’t just simply avoid it.
**[14:47] ---**
You showed me your Jutsu before.
**[14:53] ---**
This guy…he’s strong.
**[14:55] ---**
Having said that,
**[14:57] ---**
the odds aren’t good since
it’s one versus three.
**[14:59] ---**
I’m gonna have to take a chance.
**[15:04] ---**
One person at a time...
**[15:05] ---**
I’ll give it my all and take each down!
**[15:17] ---**
There’s no one at all that seems wimpy!
**[15:21] ---**
Well, the only team that’s weaker
than us is the Naruto team.
**[15:26] ---**
Idiot! You know what you’re saying?
**[15:28] ---**
What?!
**[15:29] ---**
No question Naruto and Sakura are lame!
**[15:32] ---**
But that team has
the super genius Sasuke!
**[15:35] ---**
Hah! I wonder...
**[15:37] ---**
In actual battle that genius
might easily be beaten.
**[15:41] ---**
What?!
**[15:44] ---**
All right, all right,
I apologize for irritating you.
**[15:48] ---**
What a pain...
**[15:51] ---**
I say one negative thing about
Sasuke and I get the evil eye, every time…
**[15:56] ---**
There’s no way Sasuke
could be taken down!
**[16:00] ---**
Sakura’s a different matter though!
**[16:06] ---**
Huh?!
**[16:09] ---**
Hey! Sasuke has collapsed...
**[16:11] ---**
Huh?!
**[16:12] ---**
...and Sakura is fighting.
**[16:14] ---**
What did you say?
**[16:21] ---**
Hey!
**[16:24] ---**
He’s late.
**[16:26] ---**
That Lee...
**[16:28] ---**
Something’s not right.
**[16:30] ---**
He’s always precise about time.
**[16:33] ---**
Perhaps he ran into the enemy...
**[16:37] ---**
Could it be...?
**[16:39] ---**
Huh, that wouldn’t have happened.
**[16:42] ---**
In any case, let’s find Lee!
**[16:45] ---**
Right!
**[16:53] ---**
Yes! I’ve finally mastered it!
Yes! Yes!
**[16:57] ---**
My friends, there’s no reason
to give up on your youth!
**[17:09] ---**
This Jutsu...
**[17:10] ---**
In the end, only Lee
could make it his own.
**[17:13] ---**
Yahoo!
**[17:14] ---**
– Hey Lee...
– I did it! I will do it!
**[17:17] ---**
– Lee! – When I try! I try!
**[17:19] ---**
Hey, Lee!
**[17:22] ---**
Hey!
**[17:28] ---**
Listen to this passionate message
from your teacher!
**[17:31] ---**
Oh... what is it?!
**[17:33] ---**
Please tell me using hip words.
**[17:38] ---**
This Jutsu, the “Lotus”...
**[17:40] ---**
it will be dealt with henceforth
as a forbidden Jutsu.
**[17:43] ---**
– What?! – Huh?!
**[17:45] ---**
W-What do you mean?
**[17:48] ---**
This Jutsu poses a great burden
on the cells of the muscles,
**[17:52] ---**
it’s a kind of “Self-sacrificing Technique.”
**[17:56] ---**
Humans normally utilize,
at most, 20 percent...
**[18:00] ---**
of the “power” that the muscles have.
**[18:02] ---**
Do you understand?
Only 20 percent!
**[18:05] ---**
And if nearly 100 percent
of the “power” is used
**[18:08] ---**
the muscles themselves will disintegrate.
**[18:10] ---**
So, the brain usually controls the “power.”
**[18:15] ---**
However, this Jutsu forces the
brain’s limiter to go off by using Chakra,
**[18:21] ---**
allowing high speed continuous Taijutsu...
**[18:25] ---**
In other words, this is a dangerous Jutsu
which relies on a secret technique
**[18:28] ---**
that brings forth “power” almost
to the limit of one’s body.
**[18:34] ---**
So the only time it is all right
to use this Jutsu
**[18:36] ---**
is when a certain condition is met...
**[18:40] ---**
So... when is that?
**[18:48] ---**
Take this to heart...
**[18:53] ---**
The condition is
**[19:00] ---**
Guy Sensei...
**[19:01] ---**
I will utilize that Jutsu without reserve.
**[19:05] ---**
Because this is the time you said...
**[19:12] ---**
"When protecting a previous person!"
**[19:16] ---**
He disappeared?!
**[19:31] ---**
Oh, oh no!
**[19:32] ---**
There's no way he can break his fall!
**[19:35] ---**
Take this!
**[19:37] ---**
Primary Lotus!
**[19:47] ---**
This feeling...
**[19:51] ---**
Well well...
**[19:55] ---**
Just in time.
**[20:06] ---**
T-That's impossible!
**[20:08] ---**
That is a frightening Jutsu...
**[20:10] ---**
It did this much even though
I fell on the spongy dirt.
**[20:18] ---**
It's now my turn.
**[20:22] ---**
Oh no!
**[20:23] ---**
With what I just did...
**[20:30] ---**
Lee!
**[20:37] ---**
Your Jutsu is indeed fast.
**[20:42] ---**
But our Jutsu exceeds that
**[20:45] ---**
and is the speed of sound!
**[20:51] ---**
I'll show you there are walls
**[20:56] ---**
which effort alone can never break through.
**[21:18] ---**
Hey, can you hear it?
**[21:23] ---**
The clear, blue sky goes on and on
**[21:32] ---**
The ocean spans limitlessly
**[21:41] ---**
Please keep that smile on your face forever
**[21:50] ---**
Or else I’ll cry
**[21:56] ---**
You won't have to search around you
**[22:00] ---**
It’s all ok now.
**[22:04] ---**
Everyone is inside
this hand
**[22:12] ---**
when you want to cry, and you want to run away
**[22:18] ---**
When you forget what happiness is
**[22:22] ---**
Just sing.
**[22:26] ---**
Light is born, and darkness was born
**[22:31] ---**
The two are one
**[22:34] ---**
Harmonia, feel the telepathy
**[22:40] ---**
Hey, can you hear it?
**[22:50] ---**
I'm so frustrated!
**[22:52] ---**
I'm just pulling feet again.
**[22:54] ---**
I'm always just being protected.
**[22:56] ---**
I always just watch them from behind.
**[22:59] ---**
This time, I need to protect everyone!
**[23:02] ---**
Naruto, Sasuke, Lee!
**[23:04] ---**
I want to be like you too!
**[23:08] ---**
Next episode:
"Sakura Blossoms!"
**[23:12] ---**
Please watch my battle...
**[23:15] ---**
