    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
[00:45] ---
    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
[01:12] ---
    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.
[01:42] ---
    Umm, where’s the room
    that Sasuke’s in?
[01:45] ---
    Mr. Sasuke is not allowed
    any visitors.
[01:48] ---
    What?! Hey, hey!
    What's up with that?!
[01:50] ---
    I’m sorry,
    those are the rules.
[01:52] ---
    Why, Sis, tell me why?
[01:53] ---
    Naruto, this is a hospital.
    Keep it down.
[01:56] ---
    Say! Say!
    I've got a favor to ask!
[02:00] ---
    You don’t need to say it all.
[02:01] ---
    Well, I thought it would
    come to this so…
[02:04] ---
    I searched for someone
    to watch your training.
[02:07] ---
    Why?!
[02:09] ---
    I want you to, Kakashi Sensei!
[02:11] ---
    I have some matters
    to take care of.
[02:13] ---
    I don’t have time to
    trouble myself with you.
[02:18] ---
    Oh! Aha...!
[02:21] ---
    You’re going to
    train Sasuke, aren’t you?!
[02:24] ---
    Well... don't say that.
[02:26] ---
    I found a sensei who’s
    more reliable than I am!
[02:29] ---
    Well…who is it?
[02:32] ---
    It’s me!
[02:33] ---
    Huh?!
[02:34] ---
    Oh!
[02:36] ---
    You!
[02:37] ---
    The Closet Perv!
[02:39] ---
    Such insolence!
[02:40] ---
    Ebisu Returns:
    Naruto's Toughest Training Yet!
[02:53] ---
    Ebisu Sensei is
    a Closet Perv?
[02:57] ---
    Why’s this guy
    my training teacher?!
[03:01] ---
    In the first place,
    he’s weaker than me!
[03:04] ---
    What did you say?
[03:05] ---
    But you see! But you see!
[03:08] ---
    A long time ago,
    with my Harem Jutsu, this guy…
[03:11] ---
    Transform!
[03:12] ---
    Master Ebisu! Master Ebisu!
[03:23] ---
    B-By any chance…
[03:27] ---
    Harem Jutsu?
[03:29] ---
    U-Uh…it’s nothing!
[03:33] ---
    I’ll treat you to and buy you
    whatever you want later!
[03:37] ---
    Just be quiet about that!
[03:39] ---
    You better.
[03:41] ---
    Wow, I didn’t know you
    were acquainted.
[03:46] ---
    Well, they’re unsavory ties, but.
[03:49] ---
    How could I ever forget
    that humiliation?
[03:53] ---
    But why this guy?
[03:56] ---
    I definitely don’t want him to.
[03:58] ---
    Same here.
[04:00] ---
    If it weren’t Kakashi’s favor,
    who’d teach you for the fun of it?
[04:03] ---
    Then don’t.
[04:04] ---
    Now now, both of you…
[04:06] ---
    Don’t say that.
[04:09] ---
    Naruto, Ebisu Sensei is a private tutor
[04:12] ---
    who teaches the elite,
    a special Jonin!
[04:15] ---
    He’s truly better
    at teaching than I am.
[04:23] ---
    Well, Naruto, of the three kids
    in Squad Seven that I taught,
[04:27] ---
    you’re the worst at the basic skills.
[04:30] ---
    Get taught with care
    this time around.
[04:32] ---
    How the heck am I inferior
    compared to Sakura and Sasuke?!
[04:41] ---
    Naruto, it’s fact that you
    don’t have the fundamentals down.
[04:45] ---
    No matter what you do,
    the basic skills are important.
[04:48] ---
    If you really want to become strong,
    just be quiet and listen to what I say.
[04:56] ---
    Now then, Ebisu Sensei,
    I’m leaving him with you.
[04:59] ---
    Yes, yes.
[05:01] ---
    Dang it.
[05:04] ---
    It may appear to be harsh,
[05:05] ---
    but you can become stronger
    a lot more.
[05:10] ---
    Do your best.
[05:13] ---
    Okay, then, let’s go.
[05:18] ---
    Still, I’m not convinced…
[05:20] ---
    Huh?
[05:21] ---
    You see!
[05:23] ---
    Fundamentals might be important,
[05:26] ---
    but I won’t get strong being taught
    by someone weaker than me!
[05:30] ---
    So in other words,
    you want to say that I’m weak?
[05:34] ---
    Who else is here?!
[05:36] ---
    I was certainly surprised having
    that indecent Jutsu used on me that time.
[05:42] ---
    But it’s premature for you to
    judge my ability on just that.
[05:47] ---
    Even though you were
    totally knocked out.
[05:52] ---
    Fine.
[05:53] ---
    Then, why don’t we put
    it to the test?
[05:55] ---
    Hmm?
[05:56] ---
    Naruto, run.
[05:59] ---
    Huh?
[06:00] ---
    If you can get to outrun me,
    I’ll back down quietly.
[06:07] ---
    Back down…?
[06:08] ---
    Yes.
[06:09] ---
    And of course, I’ll speak to
    Kakashi Sensei
[06:13] ---
    about you receiving direct training.
[06:16] ---
    What?! Really?!
[06:18] ---
    This elite instructor does not
    go back on his word.
[06:22] ---
    However, this is only if
    you can outrun me.
[06:26] ---
    Then that makes it easy!
[06:29] ---
    See ya!
[06:40] ---
    This’ll be a snap, a snap!
[06:42] ---
    I’ll lose that…
    Closet Perv in no time!
[06:53] ---
    He already can’t catch up!
[06:55] ---
    I knew I was quite
    an exceptional Ninja…
[06:58] ---
    Who is exceptional, you say?
[07:05] ---
    Surely you’re not thinking you can
    outrun me with just that much.
[07:10] ---
    W-What’re you saying?!
[07:11] ---
    The chase has still…
[07:15] ---
    only just begun!
[07:34] ---
    Though he’s a Closet Perv,
[07:37] ---
    he’s the elite tutor after all,
    he’s good.
[07:43] ---
    Now then.
[08:12] ---
    I knew you were Closet Perv.
[08:18] ---
    What are you doing…?
[08:20] ---
    Naruto?
[08:24] ---
    I see. The idea isn’t bad.
[08:28] ---
    Then, how about this?!
[08:32] ---
    Shadow Clone Jutsu!
[08:38] ---
    Heh!
[08:39] ---
    Catch me…if you can!
[08:45] ---
    Not bad…
[08:48] ---
    However, you are not the only one
    who uses the Shadow Clone Jutsu.
[08:57] ---
    I won’t let you get away!
[09:02] ---
    Dang it!
[09:11] ---
    Son…of…a...!
[09:28] ---
    Now then, next.
[09:33] ---
    Hold it!
[09:43] ---
    I found you!
[09:49] ---
    Wait!
[09:51] ---
    I won’t let you get away!
[09:52] ---
    Get off!
[09:53] ---
    There! No, actually, here!
[09:55] ---
    Here!
[09:57] ---
    There!
[09:58] ---
    There!
[09:59] ---
    Hold it!
[10:09] ---
    Have you reached your limit?
[10:18] ---
    You’re freaking pesky!
[10:20] ---
    Give it up already!
[10:22] ---
    What are you snapping
    back at me for?
[10:24] ---
    This is a chase, so chasing
    is natural, right?
[10:29] ---
    T-True enough…
[10:31] ---
    Naruto, you have understood
    my greatness by now, right?
[10:36] ---
    It’s about time you surrendered
    and moved on to training--
[10:38] ---
    The heck with that!
[10:42] ---
    I’m going to bump you off,
    and receive Kakashi Sensei’s training!
[10:48] ---
    Even if I have to knock you out!
[10:52] ---
    It appears you still have
    some spirit left.
[10:59] ---
    To think he would come at me
    head on, even though this is a chase.
[11:02] ---
    Just what I would expect of you, Naruto.
[11:04] ---
    As Kakashi said, he’s the
    number one unpredictability Ninja.
[11:08] ---
    Don’t take this badly!
[11:10] ---
    Eat this!
[11:14] ---
    Clone Jutsu…?
[11:30] ---
    The game is over, Naruto!
[11:36] ---
    Dang it!
[11:43] ---
    Miso-flavor barbecued pork noodles and
    salt-flavor ramen noodles!
[11:48] ---
    Here you go!
[11:50] ---
    Naruto, having been shown
    your movements and
[11:54] ---
    having further analyzed
    what Kakashi has told me…
[11:57] ---
    it is clear that you cannot control
    Chakra well.
[12:03] ---
    Control…?
[12:04] ---
    That’s right.
[12:05] ---
    Now then, comparing you
    with Sasuke and Sakura …
[12:09] ---
    I shall explain your
    bad points in order.
[12:14] ---
    As you know, in the case of using
    Ninjutsu, Genjutsu and the like,
[12:18] ---
    Ninjas build up Chakra and
    activate the Jutsu.
[12:21] ---
    I-I know that already!
[12:25] ---
    Is that so?
[12:26] ---
    Then, in the case of comparing
    the three of you,
[12:29] ---
    I shall explain specifically
    how you are inferior.
[12:34] ---
    That’s kind of an irritating
    way of saying it.
[12:37] ---
    I’m treating you the ramen
    as promised,
[12:39] ---
    so be quiet and listen!
[12:42] ---
    First, let us say that Sakura
    uses Clone Jutsu.
[12:46] ---
    Clone Jutsu!
[12:51] ---
    In her case, her build-up control as well as
    her control of Chakra is perfect,
[12:56] ---
    so she can make clones without
    using wasteful energy.
[12:59] ---
    Cha!
[13:01] ---
    Next, in Sasuke’s case,
[13:04] ---
    he is somewhat poor at
    building up Chakra.
[13:09] ---
    Clone Jutsu.
[13:14] ---
    But, his control of Chakra is perfect,
[13:18] ---
    so both he and Sakura can
    make five clones.
[13:23] ---
    But, he uses a bit more wasteful
    Chakra than Sakura.
[13:28] ---
    Oh!
[13:29] ---
    So Sasuke’s nothing special.
[13:31] ---
    In your case, there’s no time
    to be laughing at others.
[13:35] ---
    Huh?
[13:38] ---
    You are very poor at building up Chakra
    and controlling it,
[13:43] ---
    so you cannot make clones
    with the same amount of Chakra.
[13:47] ---
    In the case where you strain to
    make clones despite that,
[13:50] ---
    after consuming a much larger amount
    of Chakra than Sakura and Sasuke…
[13:54] ---
    Clone Jutsu!
[13:58] ---
    ...you can barely make
    one clone at best.
[14:02] ---
    By the way,
[14:03] ---
    Sakura and Sasuke can become ten
    with the same amount of Chakra.
[14:13] ---
    Like this, the three of you are
    this different even using the same Jutsu.
[14:20] ---
    Well, this is a somewhat exaggerated
    comparison of you three,
[14:25] ---
    but you build up too much Chakra,
    use too much physical strength,
[14:29] ---
    and your Jutsu activation is also unstable.
[14:31] ---
    But, there’ve been times when
    I was greater than Sakura and Sasuke…
[14:35] ---
    That’s only because you
    happen to have
[14:37] ---
    the most outstanding stamina
    of the three!
[14:43] ---
    Well, I am pretty sure that
    your Chakra control
[14:46] ---
    is getting difficult due to the influence
    of the Nine-Tails…
[14:50] ---
    which is the origin of your stamina.
[14:54] ---
    Anyway, there is no mistaking
    that you can become strong
[14:58] ---
    if you carry out the training
    we will be doing from now.
[15:00] ---
    Huh?! Really?!
[15:02] ---
    I guarantee it.
[15:05] ---
    Now then, let’s go.
[15:07] ---
    Sir, your bill.
[15:08] ---
    Oh, that’s right.
[15:10] ---
    Wha--?!
[15:19] ---
    Thank you very much!
[15:30] ---
    We’ve come quite a long way…
[15:32] ---
    But, this is a hot spring town, right?
[15:35] ---
    It doesn’t look like we’ve come
    here to leisurely soak in a hot spring…
[15:38] ---
    Hey! Naruto!
[15:41] ---
    That’s the women’s bath!
[15:43] ---
    I simply will not allow
    indecent behavior!
[15:48] ---
    Huh?
[15:49] ---
    I’m not you…
[15:51] ---
    It’s not that I was trying to peep.
    Believe it!
[15:54] ---
    Thinking of something like that
    in the first place makes you a Closet Perv!
[16:00] ---
    What’s with that look?
[16:02] ---
    N-Nothing.
[16:04] ---
    More importantly, why’ve we come
    to a place like this?!
[16:07] ---
    Will soaking in a hot spring
    do anything for training?
[16:10] ---
    No!
[16:11] ---
    The training will be here
    in this hot spring area!
[16:18] ---
    Okay, this is the place.
[16:20] ---
    It’s a bath, sure enough!
[16:23] ---
    What are you saying?
[16:25] ---
    I said this is training, didn’t I?
    Training!
[16:27] ---
    We’re going to train here?
[16:30] ---
    What the heck are we going to do?
[16:35] ---
    Walk on this hot water!
[16:38] ---
    What?!
[16:42] ---
    What is it?
[16:43] ---
    Walk on hot water?
[16:46] ---
    Can you really do that?
[16:49] ---
    Of course!
[16:52] ---
    I heard from Kakashi Sensei.
[16:54] ---
    You already did tree-climbing training
    without using your hands, right?
[16:58] ---
    It’s an application of that.
[17:00] ---
    Hmm… What do you mean?
[17:02] ---
    Besides, I don’t really remember
    stuff from long ago!
[17:07] ---
    In tree climbing, all you do
    is accumulate
[17:09] ---
    only the necessary amount of Chakra
    in one necessary location
[17:11] ---
    and maintain that amount of
    Chakra all the while.
[17:14] ---
    Trees are fixed objects,
    so you only need to be attached to it.
[17:19] ---
    In other words,
[17:20] ---
    it’s training for building up
    a fixed amount of Chakra.
[17:25] ---
    To float on the surface of water,
[17:26] ---
    you have to discharge on
    a constant basis
[17:28] ---
    an appropriate amount of Chakra
    from your feet to the water
[17:31] ---
    and balance that to the extent that
    you can float your own body.
[17:35] ---
    Huh?
[17:36] ---
    This Chakra control is
    more difficult than maintaining…
[17:41] ---
    and is a control training for
    discharge and usage of fixed amount
[17:45] ---
    of Chakra for Jutsu and alike.
[17:47] ---
    Hmm, I really don’t get it!
[17:50] ---
    Well, it would be better to
    show you in your case.
[17:54] ---
    First, you build up Chakra
    in your feet.
[17:59] ---
    Then, while constantly discharging
    a fixed amount…
[18:02] ---
    you balance it with your body weight.
[18:08] ---
    And…
[18:10] ---
    well, this is how it goes.
[18:12] ---
    Oh! Okay! I’m going to try!
[18:16] ---
    First, you build up Chakra
    in your feet.
[18:20] ---
    Then!
[18:22] ---
    Discharge a fixed amount. Right?
[18:24] ---
    Oh!
[18:25] ---
    I knew it.
[18:26] ---
    Hot-hot-hot-hot!
[18:29] ---
    I forgot to mention it,
    but this hot water is 60° C.
[18:32] ---
    If you do nothing but fail…
[18:34] ---
    you will become a boiled octopus!
[18:36] ---
    Dang it!
[18:39] ---
    I’ll do it no matter what!
[18:57] ---
    You’re unusually spirited today,
    honored grandson!
[19:03] ---
    My principle of guidance
    has finally gotten through!
[19:07] ---
    This would ordinarily be the
    time to go carry out
[19:09] ---
    a surprise attack on Lord Hokage.
[19:12] ---
    I’ve stopped doing that now!
[19:15] ---
    That’s right!
[19:16] ---
    So you have finally understood.
[19:18] ---
    That the shortcut to becoming
    the Hokage is to do as I say…
[19:23] ---
    There are no shortcuts!
[19:26] ---
    Huh?
[19:28] ---
    Brother Naruto said it…
[19:31] ---
    If you’re to become Hokage,
    be prepared for that!
[19:40] ---
    Oh!
[19:43] ---
    I’m starting to get it!
[19:46] ---
    To think he would get the
    hang of the Chakra control this quickly…
[19:51] ---
    I never thought,
    you would grow this much.
[19:55] ---
    Indeed, there are no shortcuts,
    in anything…
[20:00] ---
    It appears I had the
    wrong idea about you…
[20:02] ---
    You are a much smarter teacher
    than I am.
[20:07] ---
    And, you were not just a Demon Fox…
[20:11] ---
    You were a splendid
    Hidden Leaf Village Ninja!
[20:14] ---
    Oh! Hot!
[20:18] ---
    Hm?! That is…!
[20:25] ---
    Humph! I don’t know who you are
    or where you’re from, but…
[20:30] ---
    I will not allow indecency!
[20:34] ---
    Man…
[20:37] ---
    T-That is!
[20:41] ---
    What?!
[20:53] ---
    Don’t make a ruckus.
[20:55] ---
    Jeez, it won’t do to be found out!
[21:02] ---
    The Closet Perv lost?
[21:07] ---
    W-What’s with that
    Shameless Perv?!
[21:25] ---
    One! First, Tyson jumps and slamdunks
[21:28] ---
    Two! He kisses and hugs everyone
    randomly and says “I LOVE YOU”
[21:31] ---
    Three! Masala masters Yoga
    but hates curry
[21:35] ---
    Four! Sanchez is a lousy bullfighter. Ole!
[21:38] ---
    All over the world, the sky’s smiling,
    so look up and smile too
[21:45] ---
    Oh yeah! Oh yeah! Oh yeah!
    Fight! Fight! Fight!
[22:02] ---
    One! Bodimahattaya-san devotes
    his time for digging black ships
[22:06] ---
    Two! Peking Duck, Action Scene,

    Three! Popo loves to polish his Coteka
[22:12] ---
    Four! Japanese people,
    now lend me your hand!
[22:16] ---
    All over the world, the sky’s smiling,
    so look up and smile too
[22:22] ---
    Oh yeah! Oh yeah! Oh yeah!
