    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
[00:27] ---
    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
[01:03] ---
    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
[01:51] ---
    – Start the operation!
    – Start the operation!
[01:53] ---
    Zero Hour!
    The Destruction of
     the Hidden Leaf Village Begins!
[02:10] ---
    Lord Hokage!
[02:11] ---
    Leave it to me!
[02:15] ---
    Lord Kazekage!
    What is going on?
[02:21] ---
    Lord Hokage!
[02:26] ---
    Gaara!
[02:31] ---
    Squad One, above.
[02:32] ---
    Squad Two, below!
    Protect the lords!
[02:42] ---
    You’re in the way!
[03:00] ---
    Lord Hokage… Please…flee…
[03:26] ---
    It’s finally our time to
    come on the scene.
[03:28] ---
    We’ve been transformed
    such a long time.
[03:30] ---
    I’m totally pent up with frustration.
[03:33] ---
    You guys smell all sweaty!
[03:36] ---
    Come on, we’re all comrades, right…?
[03:39] ---
    Sound Ninja…!
[03:44] ---
    Raido…
[03:45] ---
    We’re heading out to
    back up Lord Hokage.
[03:47] ---
    Be careful of any traps!
[03:50] ---
    Do it…
[03:52] ---
    Yes sir!
[03:55] ---
    – Ninja Art! – Ninja Art!
[03:56] ---
    – Four Flames Formation!
    – Four Flames Formation!
[04:08] ---
    Barrier…!
[04:18] ---
    Lord Kazekage…
[04:23] ---
    Barrier Ninjutsu, huh?!
[04:26] ---
    To think that they could outwit Anbu…
[04:28] ---
    They're not just ordinary…
[04:33] ---
    What are you doing here?!
    Lord Hokage is in danger!
[04:45] ---
    What a nuisance…
[04:48] ---
    To think that the enemy was
    masquerading as our Anbu…
[04:52] ---
    So it was also that guy
    who used Genjutsu!
[04:54] ---
    Yeah…there’s no mistake.
[05:00] ---
    I didn’t expect that…
[05:02] ---
    Sand Village would betray Leaf Village.
[05:05] ---
    The treaty is simply a camouflage to
    make the enemy let down their guard.
[05:11] ---
    The petty little battle game ends now.
[05:14] ---
    From this point on, the course
    of history will change!
[05:19] ---
    Are you saying that
    you’re starting a war?
[05:24] ---
    That’s right.
[05:26] ---
    One should avoid resolution
    through armed force
[05:28] ---
    and should rather seek
    a solution through negotiations.
[05:33] ---
    There’s still time…Lord Kazekage!
[05:41] ---
    Perhaps one gets addicted to
    peace as one grows older…
[05:45] ---
    Sarutobi Sensei!
[05:50] ---
    You’re…
[06:01] ---
    Just my bad luck…
[06:03] ---
    to have lookout duty
    on a day like this.
[06:05] ---
    I wanted to watch Chunin Exam too.
[06:09] ---
    Stop fussing.
[06:10] ---
    The Chunin Exam takes
    place twice a year.
[06:13] ---
    You’ll have many more chances
    to see it.
[06:15] ---
    But this year, that kid from
    the Uchiha Clan is taking part, right?
[06:19] ---
    And I won’t have
    a chance to see that…
[06:21] ---
    I won’t be able to die peacefully.
[06:25] ---
    What’s that?!
[06:42] ---
    It’s time! Begin!
[06:52] ---
    The Summoning has succeeded.
[06:59] ---
    Huge boa!
[07:01] ---
    Notify Lord Hokage immediately!
[07:19] ---
    I’m not letting you in the village!
[07:34] ---
    Dispatch the reinforcements immediately!
[07:35] ---
    Yes sir!
[07:49] ---
    Sand Ninja!
[07:55] ---
    What’s going on?
[07:57] ---
    Stop that, Gaara!
[07:59] ---
    I’ll kill him…!
[08:05] ---
    There’s no meaning in
    continuing this fight!
[08:07] ---
    Don’t forget our mission!
[08:10] ---
    Out of my way…!
[08:13] ---
    What are you guys doing?!
[08:16] ---
    The operation is already underway!
[08:32] ---
    What in the world is going on?
[08:38] ---
    Gaara!
[08:40] ---
    What’s the matter?!
[08:44] ---
    His wound is deeper than
    I thought!
[08:46] ---
    And moreover his Chakra
    is pretty drained!
[08:49] ---
    In that case,
    what about using that thing…?
[08:52] ---
    That’s impossible to do right away!
[08:53] ---
    Idiot! It’s all because
    you didn’t wait for the signal
[08:55] ---
    and tried to become
    the Perfect Possession…
[08:58] ---
    What should we do?!
[09:00] ---
    Are you saying we have to do
    this without Gaara?
[09:15] ---
    Isn’t Gaara here yet?!
[09:22] ---
    Gaara is Sand’s trump card.
[09:26] ---
    We have to get Gaara to do his work,
    no matter what!
[09:29] ---
    You guys leave for the moment and
    tend to Gaara’s wounds!
[09:34] ---
    As soon as Gaara’s Chakra has
    been restored…
[09:36] ---
    the operation will recommence!
[09:38] ---
    Got it!
[09:42] ---
    What about you, Sensei?!
[09:44] ---
    I’m gonna suppress those guys!
[09:48] ---
    Do you think things will
    go according to your plan?
[09:52] ---
    I’ll make them so…
[10:10] ---
    Go!
[10:12] ---
    Okay!
[10:20] ---
    Is Orochimaru the host of this party?
[10:25] ---
    Dunno… In any case,
    let’s heat this thing up.
[10:37] ---
    Sasuke…
[10:40] ---
    Sorry, but the Chunin Exam ends here.
[10:45] ---
    You’ve already achieved Chunin level.
[10:48] ---
    If you’re a Leaf Shinobi,
    be of service to the Leaf!
[10:53] ---
    In other words, I’m supposed to
    take down that jerk Gaara, right?
[10:56] ---
    A continuation of earlier on, right?
[10:58] ---
    Don’t pursue too far.
[10:59] ---
    From here on, it’s no longer an exam.
    lt’s the real thing!
[11:03] ---
    What I have to do though…
    is the same!
[11:07] ---
    I won’t let him through!
[11:22] ---
    Sasuke…!
[11:25] ---
    Boy oh boy…
[11:27] ---
    We intended to take Sasuke
    while Gaara was causing the trouble.
[11:33] ---
    But not everything goes as planned.
[11:38] ---
    I see… Is that so?
[11:42] ---
    So Leaf Village and…
    Sasuke were the target, huh?
[11:48] ---
    Is the Leaf such a big catch?
[11:51] ---
    More importantly,
    if Gaara wakes up,
[11:56] ---
    I’ll be able to show you something
    much more interesting.
[11:59] ---
    Well, anyway…
[12:01] ---
    Your thick-headedness has caused
    the Leaf to be outmaneuvered.
[12:06] ---
    It’s my win.
[12:09] ---
    Nothing is decided
    until the very end.
[12:13] ---
    I believe that’s what I taught you…
[12:24] ---
    Orochimaru.
[12:31] ---
    I thought this day would
    eventually arrive.
[12:36] ---
    However…
[12:38] ---
    You won’t get my head that easily!
[12:44] ---
    I told you, didn’t I?
[12:46] ---
    It is preferable to decide
    the Fifth Hokage quickly…
[12:50] ---
    Third Hokage…
[12:52] ---
    because you will…die here.
[13:13] ---
    I wonder how the Chunin Exams
    are going?
[13:17] ---
    I wonder if Naruto’s match is over yet?
[13:21] ---
    The first match was
    with Neji, right?
[13:25] ---
    I want him to win that
    match somehow or other.
[13:28] ---
    That’s no good!
[13:29] ---
    A teacher mustn’t root for
    one particular student!
[13:32] ---
    All the graduating students
    are dear to him!
[13:34] ---
    I must root for all of them equally!
[13:40] ---
    But I still…want Naruto to win…
[13:45] ---
    Are you worried about Naruto?
[13:47] ---
    Well, of course…!
[13:51] ---
    As I thought…
[13:54] ---
    Y-You guys…
[13:57] ---
    I told you to do ten laps around
    the school grounds, didn’t I?!
[14:00] ---
    We finished that long ago.
[14:02] ---
    While you were daydreaming, Sensei.
[14:07] ---
    When our teacher is in that state,
    he can’t teach a class!
[14:11] ---
    So let’s call it quits for today!
[14:13] ---
    N-No, no!
    I’m continuing with class.
[14:20] ---
    I wonder what that smoke is…?
[14:24] ---
    That’s coming from the direction
    of the exam arena…
[14:28] ---
    Isn’t there some disturbance
    to the east?
[14:32] ---
    I wonder if something happened?
[14:39] ---
    That Orochimaru…
[14:41] ---
    What should we do?
[14:42] ---
    Should we send reinforcements?
[14:44] ---
    No… It’s dangerous to make a move
    when we don't really know
[14:47] ---
    what the situation is.
[14:49] ---
    If the mastermind is Orochimaru…
[14:51] ---
    even more so.
[14:54] ---
    Is Orochimaru…
    that dangerous a guy?
[14:59] ---
    Originally…he was a student
    of the Third Hokage.
[15:03] ---
    So why did he become a Rogue Ninja?
[15:07] ---
    Long ago, when the Fourth Hokage
    was decided…
[15:12] ---
    Orochimaru apparently asserted that
    he was capable of taking on that role.
[15:17] ---
    But his request was denied.
[15:20] ---
    And shortly afterwards,
    that guy slipped out of this village.
[15:24] ---
    Orochimaru most likely holds
    a grudge against
[15:26] ---
    the Third Hokage because of that.
[15:29] ---
    Revenge…is it?
[15:31] ---
    Probably.
[15:34] ---
    Long ago, when I was a kid…
[15:37] ---
    there’s one thing I remember
    thinking when I saw that guy…
[15:46] ---
    That he didn’t seem human…
[15:48] ---
    That he seems to be something
    that just took on a human form…
[15:54] ---
    Frightening…
[15:57] ---
    Simply…frightening.
[16:03] ---
    Reporting!
[16:05] ---
    A large boa has appeared near
    the eastern gate of the Leaf Village!
[16:07] ---
    And behind it, some one hundred
    Sand Ninja are infiltrating the country!
[16:11] ---
    They are currently engaged in
    armed conflict with our Shinobi
[16:13] ---
    who were patrolling nearby!
[16:15] ---
    The Sand…?!
[16:18] ---
    Leave Squad One and Two behind
    and make for the eastern gate.
[16:21] ---
    Immediately!
[16:22] ---
    – Yes sir! – Yes sir!
[16:34] ---
    We won’t let you past this point!
[16:52] ---
    There’s quite a large number.
[16:53] ---
    We were careless!
[16:55] ---
    And even Lord Hokage has been…
[16:58] ---
    Kakashi! Look inside the Barrier!
[17:02] ---
    Yeah.
[17:03] ---
    What…?
[17:10] ---
    Orochimaru!
[17:13] ---
    Orochimaru?!
[17:15] ---
    Why is that guy…?
[17:18] ---
    Don’t tell me that
    they’re after Sasuke again?!
[17:22] ---
    Sasuke!
[17:25] ---
    Huh?
[17:27] ---
    He’s not there…?
[17:41] ---
    Sakura, stay there for a while.
[17:44] ---
    I’m gonna go reduce
    the number of enemies.
[18:17] ---
    Darn! I’m worried about
    Lord Hokage, but…
[18:20] ---
    Leave above to Anbu.
[18:22] ---
    Besides…
[18:24] ---
    Lord Hokage isn’t the kind of guy
    who can be taken down that easily.
[18:29] ---
    But…
[18:30] ---
    After all, he is the Hokage of
    the Village Hidden in the Leaves.
[18:46] ---
    Are you so happy, you’re crying?
[18:50] ---
    Or…
[18:52] ---
    do you have an iota of sadness
    in your heart to kill me, your teacher?
[19:01] ---
    No…
[19:18] ---
    Since earlier on, I was feeling so sleepy…
[19:21] ---
    but I’m finally awake.
[19:25] ---
    That’s what I thought.
[19:32] ---
    I know you aren’t someone
    who would hold a grudge.
[19:37] ---
    You have neither a goal nor motive.
[19:40] ---
    Hmm… I guess…
[19:44] ---
    I do kind of have a goal.
[19:47] ---
    If I were to explain it…
[19:50] ---
    It’s interesting to watch things
    that move.
[19:54] ---
    I get no pleasure if
    something doesn’t move.
[19:58] ---
    Like a windmill that doesn’t turn…
[20:01] ---
    Well, it may have some kind
    of appeal once in a while.
[20:05] ---
    But usually,
    it’s not worth looking at it.
[20:09] ---
    Right now…with a wind called
    “Destroy the Leaf Village,”
[20:13] ---
    I want to turn that windmill.
[20:18] ---
    You’re the same as always…
[20:38] ---
    Sakura!
[20:40] ---
    It was worth teaching you Genjutsu
    survival training
[20:43] ---
    during the Genin Exam.
[20:45] ---
    You truly have a talent for it.
[20:49] ---
    Huh?
[20:50] ---
    Release the Genjutsu and
    wake up Naruto and Shikamaru!
[20:59] ---
    Naruto will be delighted.
[21:02] ---
    He’ll be getting a mission
    after such a long while.
[21:05] ---
    What do you mean by a mission?
[21:07] ---
    Be careful…
[21:10] ---
    It’s the first A-ranked mission
    since the Land of the Waves.
[21:20] ---
    Everyone makes mistakes
    lt’s nothing to be ashamed about
[21:30] ---
    Don’t let this scar be for naught
    Walk with a smile
[21:51] ---
    Yes, breathe in the air
    Lift your face to the sky and jump
[21:57] ---
    If it rains, take a break
    Go where the wind takes you
[22:02] ---
    So many regrets
    Don’t let this scar be for naught
[22:07] ---
    Let’s go carve the badges in our chest
    Yes, it’s Show Time, life begins now.
[22:12] ---
    Everyone makes mistakes
     It’s nothing to be ashamed about
[22:23] ---
    Don’t let this scar be for naught
    Walk with a smile
[22:33] ---
    Transform sadness into the wind
    and continue to forge on
[22:44] ---
    Forge on strong
    264.01 02:38:02:02 02:38:05:10 Yes! I've been waiting for this!
[23:06] ---
    Finally, it’s the first A-Ranked mission
    in a while!
[23:09] ---
    Listen, Sakura and Shikamaru!
[23:11] ---
    As long as I’m with you,
    it will be an easy one.
[23:14] ---
    I’m the super hero who
    can wake a sleeping lion.
[23:16] ---
    Just keep watching
    Mr. Naruto’s stellar performance!
[23:22] ---
    Next time: “Village in Distress:
    A New A-Ranked Mission!”
[23:26] ---
    Let’s go! Let’s go! Let’s go!
