**[00:01] ---**
Yeah, turn your sadness into kindness,
your uniqueness into strength
**[00:09] ---**
Even if you get lost, let’s start walking
**[00:18] ---**
One more time
**[00:23] ---**
Are you really happy
**[00:26] ---**
when you're always meeting
to someone's expectations?
**[00:30] ---**
Even if you change to
who you really wanna be
**[00:34] ---**
Will you always have a great smile?
**[00:37] ---**
Dreaming of only “the beginning,”
I wake up
**[00:45] ---**
and someday, I'll live on my own.
**[00:54] ---**
Yes, precious things are never in shape
**[01:02] ---**
You never know what it is
when you get it or lose it
**[01:09] ---**
Yeah, turn your sadness into kindness,
your uniqueness into strength
**[01:18] ---**
Even if you get lost,
let's start walking
**[01:26] ---**
One more time
**[01:55] ---**
His opponent is that Neji, huh…?
**[01:58] ---**
The Final Round is altogether different
than the preliminaries…
**[02:01] ---**
After all, Naruto may not be able to…
**[02:23] ---**
Entertain me a little, Naruto.
**[02:28] ---**
I’ve got a tough job waiting
for me now, so…
**[02:34] ---**
Ultimate Defense: Zero Blind Spot!
**[03:13] ---**
Dang it. I can’t catch him at all.
**[03:18] ---**
I told you I’m not
such a fool, didn’t I?
**[03:28] ---**
I already know…
which one is the real one.
**[03:39] ---**
Oh.
**[03:40] ---**
That is the body
that has least attacks
**[03:42] ---**
due to its fear of having
Chakra Points attacked.
**[03:46] ---**
The more you attack,
**[03:48] ---**
the more that one body
becomes clearly evident.
**[03:54] ---**
You’re the real one.
**[03:56] ---**
Naruto…
**[03:57] ---**
This is as far as it goes.
**[04:04] ---**
I said it was pointless.
**[04:09] ---**
Don’t let him beat you, Naruto.
**[04:16] ---**
I’ve been telling you not
to frivolously assume things.
**[04:22] ---**
What?
**[04:24] ---**
It can’t be.
**[04:30] ---**
All right! Go, Naruto!
**[04:34] ---**
Naruto…!
**[04:36] ---**
He foiled my idea and purposely
and drew one of his clones back?
**[04:42] ---**
I’ve been striking from the beginning,
prepared for an honorable death!
**[04:46] ---**
Believe it!
**[04:48] ---**
I did it.
**[04:56] ---**
That’s…
**[05:11] ---**
W-What was that?
**[05:15] ---**
Did you think you’d won?
**[05:19] ---**
Why?
**[05:20] ---**
Naruto’s punch should’ve hit.
**[05:24] ---**
That…
**[05:29] ---**
Rotation...
**[05:35] ---**
That’s Neji’s defense.
**[05:38] ---**
You punk.
Don’t make a fool of me.
**[05:46] ---**
The largest range of vision of
Neji’s Byakugan is nearly 360 degrees.
**[05:51] ---**
And he detects all of his opponent’s
attacks with the Byakugan.
**[05:57] ---**
His defense technique,
the 8 Trigrams Palms Rotation,
**[06:00] ---**
will begin from here.
**[06:21] ---**
The moment he’s attacked,
he discharges a large amount of Chakra
**[06:24] ---**
from the Chakra holes in the body,
blocks the enemy’s attack with that Chakra,
**[06:28] ---**
moves his own body in a circular motion,
dodges and repels.
**[06:34] ---**
Essentially, it’s difficult to control
the Chakra discharged from Chakra holes…
**[06:38] ---**
To the extent that even Jonin utilize
the discharge from a part of the body,
**[06:42] ---**
like the hands and feet,
in techniques.
**[06:45] ---**
But Neji who has mastered
Gentle Fist discharges Chakra
**[06:49] ---**
from his entire body and
shuts out physical attacks
**[06:52] ---**
just with that discharge power.
**[06:55] ---**
In other words,
**[06:56] ---**
that’s one more absolute defense
**[06:59] ---**
that has more power
than that Gaara’s Sand Shield.
**[07:09] ---**
T-That’s father’s…
**[07:11] ---**
The Rotation is a secret Art passed down
from generation to generation
**[07:14] ---**
only to the Hyuga head family,
in other words the Hyuga clan.
**[07:18] ---**
He created that on his own…?
**[07:21] ---**
He’s quite the guy…
To think he’d come this far.
**[07:26] ---**
It’s much too soon to be surprised.
Neji’s true power is still to come.
**[07:32] ---**
Dang it.
**[07:34] ---**
This is the end.
**[07:37] ---**
You’re within the area of my 8 Trigrams.
**[07:52] ---**
Gentle Fist Art.
**[07:55] ---**
8 Trigrams 64 Palms.
**[07:57] ---**
It can’t be.
**[07:59] ---**
That pose.
**[08:08] ---**
8 Tetragrams…
**[08:11] ---**
…2 Palms!
**[08:15] ---**
4 Palms.
**[08:17] ---**
8 Palms.
**[08:20] ---**
16 Palms.
**[08:22] ---**
32 Palms.
**[08:26] ---**
64 Palms!
**[08:33] ---**
The branch family exceeds
the head family?
**[08:50] ---**
It’s over.
**[08:57] ---**
Truly a terrifying talent.
**[09:00] ---**
To think the power of the
Hyuga Kekkei Genkai
**[09:03] ---**
would be passed on so strongly
to a child of the branch family
**[09:06] ---**
who would never be able
to be an heir.
**[09:11] ---**
Hizashi… You should have
succeeded the Hyuga family.
**[09:16] ---**
I pressed the 64 Chakra Points
all over your body…
**[09:20] ---**
You can’t even stand.
**[09:25] ---**
D-Dang it.
**[09:28] ---**
Are you frustrated?
**[09:30] ---**
Kneeling down before power
that can’t be changed
**[09:33] ---**
and knowing your powerlessness.
**[09:36] ---**
Your dreams will come true
if you just work hard.
**[09:39] ---**
That’s just an illusion.
**[09:43] ---**
Hey, Hinata. Are you okay?
**[09:45] ---**
Oh, man. I knew it.
**[09:48] ---**
Naruto.
**[10:20] ---**
Bushy brow…
**[10:24] ---**
Hinata.
**[10:32] ---**
D-Dang it.
**[10:36] ---**
Oh.
**[10:44] ---**
Naruto.
**[10:56] ---**
He… No way.
**[11:01] ---**
I told you, didn’t I…?
**[11:03] ---**
I don’t know when to give up.
**[11:18] ---**
No way.
**[11:22] ---**
Hey, you’re bleeding.
**[11:25] ---**
What’s wrong?
**[11:27] ---**
You’ve still got damage
from the match.
**[11:32] ---**
Hinata… Hang in there.
**[11:39] ---**
I’ll take a look at her.
**[11:42] ---**
Who’re you?
**[11:44] ---**
I’m not suspicious or anything.
**[11:47] ---**
Stop already…
**[11:49] ---**
It’ll be the same even if
you fight more than this.
**[11:51] ---**
I don’t have a grudge particularly
against you.
**[11:54] ---**
S-Shut up…
**[11:56] ---**
Even if you say so,
I have something against you.
**[12:00] ---**
What are you talking about?
**[12:01] ---**
Why…? Here you’re this strong…
**[12:06] ---**
Why did you, with a look like
you’ve seen through it all,
**[12:10] ---**
go after Hinata mentally
who was trying so hard?
**[12:16] ---**
It has nothing to do with you.
**[12:19] ---**
Mocking Hinata, selfishly labeling
her a failure as you please.
**[12:24] ---**
Head family, branch family…
**[12:26] ---**
I don’t know what happened to you.
**[12:30] ---**
But I won’t forgive the jerk who’d
call another person a failure.
**[12:41] ---**
Hey, you.
**[12:43] ---**
It’s okay. I’m a doctor.
**[12:47] ---**
Okay… Fine.
**[12:49] ---**
If you insist, I’ll tell you about
the Hyuga’s destiny of hatred.
**[12:57] ---**
In the Hyuga head family,
there’s a secret Ninjutsu
**[12:59] ---**
that’s been passed on
from generation to generation.
**[13:02] ---**
That is the Curse Mark Arts.
**[13:05] ---**
Curse Mark Arts?
**[13:12] ---**
The Curse Mark represents
a bird in a cage…
**[13:17] ---**
and it’s a mark of those who are
bound to a destiny they can’t escape.
**[13:34] ---**
W-What’s…
**[13:47] ---**
...t-that mark?
**[13:50] ---**
One day when I was four years old,
**[13:52] ---**
this accursed mark was inscribed
on my forehead with the Curse Mark Arts.
**[13:59] ---**
A large ceremony was held in
the Village Hidden in Leaves on that day.
**[14:04] ---**
It was also the day when the
head Ninja of the Land of Lightning,
**[14:07] ---**
the land that the Leaf had
fought with for many years,
**[14:10] ---**
came for the conclusion
of the allied treaty.
**[14:15] ---**
However, there was one clan…
**[14:18] ---**
who didn’t attend the ceremony
that was attended
**[14:20] ---**
by everybody else,
from Leaf Jonin to Genin.
**[14:24] ---**
It was the Hyuga clan…
**[14:27] ---**
And it’s because that day
was the day of hope
**[14:29] ---**
when the head family heir
was to turn three.
**[14:34] ---**
Miss Hinata’s third birthday!
**[14:50] ---**
My father, Hizashi Hyuga,
**[14:52] ---**
and Miss Hinata’s father who’s over there,
Lord Hiashi Hyuga, were twin brothers.
**[14:58] ---**
However, Miss Hinata’s father,
Lord Hiashi,
**[15:01] ---**
is the eldest son of the head family
born into this world first.
**[15:06] ---**
And my father who was the second son
is a member of the branch family.
**[15:12] ---**
So Miss Hinata is already three…
**[15:14] ---**
Congratulations.
**[15:16] ---**
Thank you.
**[15:26] ---**
She’s a cute girl, isn’t she, father?
**[15:34] ---**
What’s wrong, father?
**[15:37] ---**
Oh, it’s nothing.
**[15:42] ---**
Then…
**[15:43] ---**
I’ll be taking Neji under my care, Hizashi.
**[15:46] ---**
Yes.
**[15:48] ---**
When the head family heir grew
and became three years old,
**[15:54] ---**
I had the Curse Mark imprinted on me
and I became the bird in the cage.
**[15:58] ---**
And became the Hyuga branch family.
**[16:00] ---**
Why’s it necessary to do
something like that?
**[16:03] ---**
Why separate into a head family
and a branch family?
**[16:06] ---**
What does that weird mark mean?
**[16:09] ---**
This mark on my forehead
isn’t just a decoration.
**[16:22] ---**
The pull of your legs is weak.
**[16:24] ---**
Yes.
**[16:32] ---**
Listen, Neji.
**[16:34] ---**
You will live to protect Miss Hinata
of the head family
**[16:38] ---**
as well as the Hyuga power.
**[16:41] ---**
Yes, father.
**[17:05] ---**
Murderous Intent.
**[17:14] ---**
My head.
**[17:15] ---**
Father.
**[17:20] ---**
What’s wrong, father?
**[17:22] ---**
Go home.
I’ll forgive the fool today only.
**[17:28] ---**
You’re not to forget your destiny.
**[17:36] ---**
This Curse Mark is the absolute fear
called death so to speak…
**[17:39] ---**
that was given to the branch family
by the head family.
**[17:44] ---**
The Secret Sign that the
head family members form easily
**[17:46] ---**
destroys the cerebral nerves
of those in the branch family.
**[17:50] ---**
Of course, killing is easy.
**[17:53] ---**
And this mark only goes away
at time of death.
**[17:58] ---**
Sealing away the power
of the Byakugan.
**[18:05] ---**
The Hyuga family is the clan that possesses
the most distinctive Kekkei Genkai.
**[18:10] ---**
There’s no end to those who
target the secret of that distinctive power.
**[18:16] ---**
In other words, this Curse Mark
keeps the branch family alive
**[18:20] ---**
only to protect the head family
and does not allow disobedience.
**[18:24] ---**
And it’s an effective system created
to defend for eternity
**[18:28] ---**
the Kekkei Genkai called Byakugan.
**[18:31] ---**
And then, that incident occurred.
**[18:36] ---**
My father was killed by
the head family.
**[18:45] ---**
One night, Miss Hinata was
snatched up by someone.
**[19:15] ---**
At that time, Lord Hiashi immediately
rushed off and killed the abductor.
**[19:20] ---**
Who do you think that person was…
**[19:23] ---**
who was in the shadows,
and also wearing a mask?
**[19:29] ---**
It was the head ninja of
the Land of Lightning
**[19:33] ---**
who had just completed
the allied treaty.
**[19:36] ---**
It was clear that he came targeting
the secret of Byakugan from the start.
**[19:41] ---**
However, the Land of Lightning
exploited the killing of their own Ninja
**[19:45] ---**
due to a botched plan…
**[19:46] ---**
and set an outrageous condition in
violation of the treaty with the Hidden Leaf.
**[19:57] ---**
Naturally, things got worse and worse,
**[20:00] ---**
and there was almost a war
between the Leaf and the Lightning.
**[20:03] ---**
However, the Leaf who
wanted to avoid war
**[20:06] ---**
made a deal with the Lightning.
**[20:09] ---**
A deal?
**[20:11] ---**
The Lightning demand was
the body of the Hyuga head family
**[20:13] ---**
who possesses Byakugan,
the Kekkei Genkai…
**[20:17] ---**
In other words,
the body of Lord Hiashi.
**[20:23] ---**
And the Leaf accepted the condition.
**[20:26] ---**
What? But, father…
**[20:30] ---**
And war was safely avoided.
**[20:34] ---**
Thanks to my father who was killed
as a body double of Hiashi Hyuga,
**[20:40] ---**
to protect the head family!
**[20:43] ---**
Other than dying, there’s no other way
to escape this accursed Curse Mark.
**[20:48] ---**
Even though they were twins
with nearly equal power,
**[20:52] ---**
their destinies were already set by
who was born first and born later.
**[21:03] ---**
And then, this match…
**[21:05] ---**
Your destiny was decided at the point
when I became your opponent.
**[21:25] ---**
One! First, Tyson jumps and slamdunks
**[21:29] ---**
Two! He kisses and hugs everyone
randomly and says “I LOVE YOU”
**[21:32] ---**
Three! Masala masters Yoga
but hates curry
**[21:36] ---**
Four! Sanchez is a lousy bullfighter. Ole!
**[21:39] ---**
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!
**[22:03] ---**
One! Bodimahattaya-san devotes
his time for digging black ships
**[22:06] ---**
Two! Peking Duck, Action Scene,
Chen Lee speeds around on his bike
**[22:10] ---**
Three! Popo loves to polish his Coteka
**[22:13] ---**
Four! Japanese people,
now lend me you hand!
**[22:17] ---**
All over the world, the sky’s smiling,
so look up and smile too
**[22:23] ---**
Oh yeah! Oh yeah! Oh yeah!
Fight! Fight! Fight!
**[22:30] ---**
All over the world, the sky’s smiling,
so look up and smile too
**[22:37] ---**
Oh yeah! Oh yeah! Oh yeah!
Fight! Fight! Fight!
**[22:51] ---**
Are all my Chakra Points
really closed?
**[22:55] ---**
Darn. I cannot feel any Chakra
remaining in my body at all…
**[23:00] ---**
just like when I used up all my Chakra
in my training with the Pervy Sage.
**[23:04] ---**
Wait. I got it. Just watch me!
**[23:08] ---**
I will squeeze out
my Chakra no matter what!
**[23:11] ---**
Next time, “A Failure’s True Power.”
