Just a little more.
You're pretty good.
Now that's a handy Jinchuriki.
But...how'd you know
There are no birds like that
I see.
The Jinchuriki of the Sand
You're pretty good...
Now that's a handy Jinchuriki.
But...how'd you know
There are no birds like that
I see.
Hey! What was that noise earlier?!
You're supposed to report immediately
Wh-What...happened?
Lord Kazekage...
What do you mean something strange
Captain Yura was supposed to have
Actually... we have been unable to
Come again?!
Oh
Yura.
You head on back.
Things will get complicated if the guys
Yes
Get a move on
I don't like to be kept waiting.
Gaara! I'm coming in!
Where'd he go...?
Kankuro
Wh-What did you say?
Gaara...!
The covert action is a failure.
But now...
I don't have to bother...
He's got the advantage
This is a real mess.
Over there?!
This one is?!
A transformation of one
I'm finished if it even grazes me...
Shinobi Battle Skills
Ninjutsu!
The speed of his seal forming...
It's way too fast!
Fire Style! Fireball Jutsu!
Where's Kakashi Sensei?
Earth Style: Headhunter Jutsu!
A Shadow Clone
Water Style! Water Dragon Missile!
What?!
Using Fire Style
Ordinarily that's totally impossible.
He isn't called the "Copy Ninja"
Now I understand how amazing he is.
Yeah...
This is going to be
But there's still plenty of time
Yes
Things might just be settled...
more quickly than you'd expect...
Gaara...
It's almost time...
The real show's about to begin.
There!
He uses strange explosives...
I've pretty much got it now.
I always knew
The Sharingan is really
Yeah...
But even more than that
It's so fast it's tough for us
Fire Style! Fireball Jutsu!
Water Style! Water Dragon Jutsu!
For the time being
we won't have a prayer of getting
unless we can do something
Yeah. That Kakashi Sensei's
He's smarter than Shikamaru.
He has a better sense of smell
His Sharingan is better
His Taijutsu is better than
And he's got way more...
But even Kakashi Sensei must
If we think hard about it...
Hmm. A weakness
Oh! He does...
What?!
I never thought they'd make me
But
I should be able to hang on
I've still got...Shuriken...
Whoops! Mustn't do that.
This isn't like the old days.
They're too good for me to be
But I want to know what happens.
It seems the main character
has some sort of incredible secret...
I can't wait to read what's next...
R-Really?
Did you really figure out
You should be able to figure it out
if you look back on
Quit stalling already...
Well
I get it!
I never thought he'd have
See?! It's clear if you think back
Right
In addition to occupying
we might be able to seal off
And then if we seize the opportunity...
Naruto...
Sure enough
Still
that I ended up getting
I guess this time I'll wait and see
Now that that's settled
We'll make the first move!
Right! Let's go!
All right.
They're fast
Gaara!
They're here.
You're underestimating me.
To think you'd attack me
