1
00:00:12,730 --> 00:00:13,770
You people...
2
00:00:14,330 --> 00:00:15,500
Are you all right?
3
00:00:15,630 --> 00:00:16,300
Yeah...
4
00:00:16,870 --> 00:00:18,500
But why are you here?
5
00:00:18,530 --> 00:00:20,170
You were also worried about Hotaru?
6
00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:23,270
Yeah right. It was just
sheer coincidence.
7
00:00:24,100 --> 00:00:27,170
But...these guys didn't come here
for Hotaru.
8
00:00:27,530 --> 00:00:28,670
What do you mean?
9
00:00:29,130 --> 00:00:30,930
And who are these guys?
10
00:00:38,630 --> 00:00:39,570
That mask...
11
00:00:41,930 --> 00:00:44,270
I see... So they're target is...
12
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:46,430
Master!
13
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:53,100
Why are the Hidden Leaf here?
14
00:00:57,300 --> 00:00:59,030
Please let that girl go.
15
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:00,500
No!
16
00:01:02,870 --> 00:01:05,270
In that case! We'll take her back...
17
00:01:05,370 --> 00:01:07,470
by force!
18
00:01:07,670 --> 00:01:08,900
Shadow Clone Jutsu!
19
00:01:16,030 --> 00:01:16,900
Ninja Art!
20
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:18,370
Super Beast Scroll!
21
00:01:29,770 --> 00:01:31,400
I'll take the one in the middle.
22
00:01:31,670 --> 00:01:35,030
You take the ones around him.
We'll attack together.
23
00:01:35,430 --> 00:01:37,700
Got it. But...these Black Ops are...
24
00:01:40,030 --> 00:01:41,200
Let's see how it goes for
a bit longer...
25
00:01:42,300 --> 00:01:44,800
We need to find out what
their purpose is.
26
00:01:51,730 --> 00:01:52,670
Master...
27
00:01:56,170 --> 00:01:57,500
Hidden Jutsu: Kirisame!
28
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:09,930
What's with this rain?!
29
00:02:10,970 --> 00:02:13,700
It's a jutsu that eats away the chakra
it comes into contact with.
30
00:02:13,730 --> 00:02:15,030
It's called the Kirisame Jutsu!
31
00:02:15,770 --> 00:02:16,700
Why you...!
32
00:02:18,030 --> 00:02:18,630
Go!
33
00:02:21,530 --> 00:02:23,030
Stop! Don't be hasty!
34
00:02:23,430 --> 00:02:24,330
Let's go!
35
00:02:24,700 --> 00:02:25,700
Water Whip!
36
00:02:35,070 --> 00:02:36,170
Wood Style!
37
00:02:48,770 --> 00:02:49,500
Master!
38
00:03:05,970 --> 00:03:07,900
I need you to stay quiet
for a while.
39
00:03:12,070 --> 00:03:13,570
What the hell are you doing?!
40
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:14,370
Naruto!
41
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:16,370
Wait.
42
00:03:17,500 --> 00:03:21,300
We are on a mission to guard
that girl.
43
00:03:21,900 --> 00:03:23,230
Please return her to us.
44
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:27,370
Yeah! Give her back, you!
45
00:03:28,230 --> 00:03:31,800
You are Anbu Black Ops
from the Hidden Mist,
46
00:03:32,370 --> 00:03:34,370
and the one you seek
is this man, correct?
47
00:03:35,070 --> 00:03:38,370
Huh? Anbu Black Ops...
from the Hidden Mist?
48
00:03:44,030 --> 00:03:45,270
I get it now...
49
00:03:45,670 --> 00:03:47,600
So that means he is a...
50
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,270
Utakata is a Rogue Ninja from
the Hidden Mist
51
00:03:51,300 --> 00:03:52,770
and is listed in the Bingo Book.
52
00:03:53,370 --> 00:03:55,370
These men have come after him.
53
00:03:56,300 --> 00:04:01,130
So these guys...
aren't ninjas who are after her?
54
00:04:01,770 --> 00:04:03,000
They're after Utakata?
55
00:04:06,070 --> 00:04:09,070
She has nothing to do with you.
Please release her.
56
00:04:09,530 --> 00:04:12,700
Then we'll exchange her for him.
57
00:04:17,570 --> 00:04:18,430
No.
58
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:20,770
That, we can't do.
59
00:04:21,270 --> 00:04:22,030
What?!
60
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,370
That girl seems to be very fond
of this man.
61
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:29,530
If we hand him over to you,
no doubt, she will pursue you.
62
00:04:30,230 --> 00:04:32,100
Then we'll be in trouble.
63
00:04:32,670 --> 00:04:34,470
So we can't turn him over.
64
00:04:34,870 --> 00:04:36,900
Then...neither can we...
65
00:04:38,430 --> 00:04:40,370
If we resort to force,
66
00:04:40,530 --> 00:04:42,970
it may have major effects
beyond this village,
67
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:44,430
and erupt into a full-scale war.
68
00:04:44,570 --> 00:04:45,970
Are you willing to go that far?
69
00:04:55,900 --> 00:04:57,070
The Hidden Mist?
70
00:05:04,630 --> 00:05:05,600
Captain Yamato.
71
00:05:14,230 --> 00:05:15,800
Men of the Hidden Leaf...
72
00:05:21,730 --> 00:05:25,130
I command this unit from
behind the scenes.
73
00:05:26,530 --> 00:05:29,430
I am Tsurugi, head of
the Hidden Mist Anbu Black Ops.
74
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,500
It is certainly not our desire
to escalate this
75
00:05:33,530 --> 00:05:35,600
into a war between nations.
76
00:05:36,370 --> 00:05:38,800
Certainly, we can still negotiate?
77
00:05:39,700 --> 00:05:41,070
Yes, I agree.
78
00:05:49,830 --> 00:05:50,970
You're...
79
00:05:52,370 --> 00:05:56,530
Let us meet. Just you and I...
80
00:06:00,630 --> 00:06:02,270
And Utakata.
81
00:06:03,170 --> 00:06:04,330
Understood.
82
00:06:07,630 --> 00:06:09,130
You two stay here.
83
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:58,230
"Rogue Ninja's Past"
84
00:08:01,530 --> 00:08:04,130
Then until you complete
your mission,
85
00:08:04,170 --> 00:08:07,430
we will postpone
apprehending Utakata.
86
00:08:08,170 --> 00:08:10,570
As soon as her safety
is guaranteed,
87
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:12,030
I will notify you.
88
00:08:13,130 --> 00:08:17,730
Please keep in mind that should
you go back on our agreement,
89
00:08:17,770 --> 00:08:20,500
war between our nations
may be inevitable.
90
00:08:21,570 --> 00:08:22,630
I understand.
91
00:08:26,670 --> 00:08:27,500
Hmm...
92
00:08:28,430 --> 00:08:33,070
You guys are too much.
I'll be doing things as I please.
93
00:08:34,030 --> 00:08:35,030
Not likely.
94
00:08:35,730 --> 00:08:39,370
Until our mission is over,
you will remain with us.
95
00:08:40,170 --> 00:08:44,130
After that, it's all between you
and the Hidden Mist.
96
00:08:45,570 --> 00:08:46,370
Fine.
97
00:08:46,970 --> 00:08:48,000
Tell me...
98
00:08:48,870 --> 00:08:50,900
Just what did you do
in Hidden Mist Village?
99
00:08:52,300 --> 00:08:54,470
That...is none of your business.
100
00:08:56,530 --> 00:08:57,370
My apologies.
101
00:08:58,430 --> 00:09:00,000
I want to speak to him alone.
102
00:09:01,500 --> 00:09:02,930
I'll wait over there.
103
00:09:25,930 --> 00:09:26,930
Captain Yamato!
104
00:09:27,500 --> 00:09:28,630
How did your talk go?
105
00:09:30,630 --> 00:09:32,430
Oh, it went well.
106
00:09:35,130 --> 00:09:35,930
Where are those two?
107
00:09:36,630 --> 00:09:38,070
Having a discussion.
108
00:09:39,100 --> 00:09:43,370
Is it true...
that Utakata is a Rogue Ninja?
109
00:09:44,270 --> 00:09:45,000
Yeah...
110
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:55,930
Don't give us trouble.
Return to the Hidden Mist.
111
00:09:57,170 --> 00:09:59,670
Humph! No thanks!
112
00:10:00,130 --> 00:10:01,870
Why would I go back
just to get killed...?
113
00:10:02,700 --> 00:10:04,100
The village has changed.
114
00:10:04,830 --> 00:10:09,300
We no longer have the practices
that once gave us the nickname,
115
00:10:09,330 --> 00:10:10,930
"Blood Mist Village."
116
00:10:11,730 --> 00:10:13,970
But while things may seem peaceful,
117
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,530
it is a delicate power balance
between the Five Great Nations.
118
00:10:17,130 --> 00:10:20,370
The importance of what you possess
increases each year,
119
00:10:20,770 --> 00:10:23,130
and research into its use
has also been stepped up.
120
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:29,570
The village needs that power,
so you certainly won't be killed.
121
00:10:30,830 --> 00:10:33,070
I don't trust anyone anymore.
122
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:48,170
Master... Please stop, Master!
123
00:11:06,970 --> 00:11:10,270
My master...tried to kill me...
124
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,570
along with that thing inside me.
125
00:11:29,070 --> 00:11:32,270
I sacrificed myself for the sake
of the village.
126
00:11:33,230 --> 00:11:37,430
I trusted my master's words...
and did as he bid.
127
00:11:38,430 --> 00:11:40,730
And he betrayed my trust...
128
00:11:40,770 --> 00:11:42,530
he tried to kill me!
129
00:11:47,130 --> 00:11:48,300
What?!
130
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:56,470
Th-This...power...
131
00:11:57,270 --> 00:11:58,200
Wait!
132
00:11:58,230 --> 00:12:00,930
Stop! Stop!
133
00:12:10,170 --> 00:12:12,900
No, Utakata! He didn't...
134
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,470
Harusame didn't try to kill you.
135
00:12:17,130 --> 00:12:18,300
It wasn't like that.
136
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:23,130
That cursed deed he performed on you...
137
00:12:23,870 --> 00:12:25,700
He was trying to separate it
from you.
138
00:12:26,470 --> 00:12:27,900
He was trying to save you.
139
00:12:28,700 --> 00:12:31,730
Like I'd believe such a story...
140
00:12:32,670 --> 00:12:34,700
You've grown senile.
141
00:12:35,730 --> 00:12:37,000
I speak the truth...
142
00:12:37,330 --> 00:12:42,630
My master... No, that man used me
and tried to kill me.
143
00:12:43,030 --> 00:12:46,900
And in the aftermath...he died.
144
00:12:47,930 --> 00:12:51,800
If you ask the villagers,
they will say I killed him.
145
00:12:52,470 --> 00:12:55,130
Utakata... Return to the village.
146
00:12:55,670 --> 00:12:59,000
Then you will know that
I am not lying.
147
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:00,530
No thanks.
148
00:13:00,630 --> 00:13:03,470
Then, we have no choice
but to kill you.
149
00:13:04,570 --> 00:13:05,730
As you please.
150
00:13:06,270 --> 00:13:08,530
And I will do as I please.
151
00:13:21,500 --> 00:13:22,530
Master!
152
00:13:25,900 --> 00:13:26,830
Let her go.
153
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:28,530
Yes, sir!
154
00:13:34,530 --> 00:13:35,430
Master!
155
00:13:35,830 --> 00:13:36,700
Enough!
156
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,430
Never call me that again.
157
00:13:49,830 --> 00:13:50,770
Understand?
158
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:57,630
Men of the Hidden Leaf, as agreed,
we will retreat for now.
159
00:13:58,430 --> 00:14:01,500
Let us pray that both our missions
are successful.
160
00:14:02,230 --> 00:14:06,370
However, we will continue to
keep watch over you.
161
00:14:07,300 --> 00:14:08,270
Understood.
162
00:14:08,630 --> 00:14:09,400
Farewell.
163
00:14:10,570 --> 00:14:11,330
Scatter!
164
00:14:16,330 --> 00:14:17,770
Oh dear...
165
00:14:26,370 --> 00:14:28,470
Now then, where do
we go from here?
166
00:14:29,370 --> 00:14:32,930
It's best that we don't return
to the Tsuchigumo village.
167
00:14:33,370 --> 00:14:34,800
Yes, you're right.
168
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,900
If it's no longer secure as
a ninja village,
169
00:14:37,930 --> 00:14:39,830
her safety is questionable.
170
00:14:40,970 --> 00:14:43,330
Then it may be better to return
to Mount Katsuragi
171
00:14:43,370 --> 00:14:45,800
and rethink our stance.
172
00:14:46,700 --> 00:14:48,070
I also wish to go back.
173
00:14:48,730 --> 00:14:50,700
I want to make sure Tonbei
is all right.
174
00:14:51,830 --> 00:14:54,300
Although, the ones after
the Forbidden Jutsu
175
00:14:54,330 --> 00:14:57,800
may also go back to Katsuragi,
so it may not be safe either.
176
00:14:58,370 --> 00:15:00,900
Let's join up with
Tonbei and Sakura,
177
00:15:00,930 --> 00:15:02,430
then decide on our course of action.
178
00:15:04,670 --> 00:15:07,100
Utakata, you too.
179
00:15:28,700 --> 00:15:29,730
Are you all right?
180
00:15:30,530 --> 00:15:31,330
Uh-huh...
181
00:15:32,930 --> 00:15:35,600
I wonder why he doesn't want me
to call him "Master."
182
00:15:40,830 --> 00:15:43,800
Utakata is a heinous criminal
who killed his master
183
00:15:43,830 --> 00:15:45,430
and escaped from the village.
184
00:15:47,100 --> 00:15:51,130
Just what happened between...
Sir Utakata and his master?
185
00:15:52,930 --> 00:15:55,200
We don't know what
the relationship is
186
00:15:55,230 --> 00:15:56,700
between Utakata and
the Hidden Mist.
187
00:15:57,270 --> 00:15:59,570
But that's not important.
188
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,670
If you've already decided
you want to be his student,
189
00:16:02,700 --> 00:16:03,870
then who cares?
190
00:16:03,930 --> 00:16:06,300
It matters.
I want to become strong.
191
00:16:06,430 --> 00:16:08,070
In order to restore my clan's honor.
192
00:16:08,730 --> 00:16:10,230
That's why I want to
learn from him.
193
00:16:11,900 --> 00:16:16,000
I can tell. You want him to
teach you hands on, right?
194
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:18,300
It's not like that...
195
00:16:19,470 --> 00:16:21,730
Well, I felt the same way too.
196
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:27,700
I don't have any memories
of my parents.
197
00:16:28,700 --> 00:16:29,430
Huh?
198
00:16:30,370 --> 00:16:34,430
So maybe that's why...
when I traveled with the Pervy Sage...
199
00:16:35,170 --> 00:16:39,000
I wondered if that's what
it felt like to have a parent.
200
00:16:39,770 --> 00:16:43,270
And I acted spoiled
with him sometimes.
201
00:16:44,070 --> 00:16:47,530
But training isn't that easy.
202
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:50,200
You have to think things
through yourself,
203
00:16:50,230 --> 00:16:52,000
and learn the technique by yourself.
204
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,200
Otherwise, you'll never get better.
205
00:16:58,770 --> 00:17:01,470
If the Pervy Sage hadn't been there,
206
00:17:01,500 --> 00:17:03,900
I wouldn't even have realized
something that basic.
207
00:17:04,530 --> 00:17:05,530
We're not alone...
208
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,200
Just the thought that
someone is nearby,
209
00:17:08,230 --> 00:17:09,900
watching over us...
210
00:17:09,930 --> 00:17:11,600
that alone makes us strong.
211
00:17:13,070 --> 00:17:17,300
I understand how you feel.
I envy you, Naruto.
212
00:17:18,500 --> 00:17:24,070
Just like you, I'm going to think of
Sir Utakata as my master and...
213
00:17:25,700 --> 00:17:27,770
Hey...you look pale...
214
00:17:29,900 --> 00:17:30,900
I'm...okay...
215
00:17:32,530 --> 00:17:33,370
Hey!
216
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:36,430
You're burning up...
217
00:17:37,630 --> 00:17:39,030
You're hurt!
218
00:17:40,230 --> 00:17:41,200
Is it from that fight?!
219
00:17:45,900 --> 00:17:46,970
Captain Yamato!
220
00:17:49,300 --> 00:17:50,330
I'll see to her.
221
00:17:55,630 --> 00:17:57,300
Can you go and get some
medicinal herbs?
222
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:02,070
The dokudami plant should
be abundant around here
223
00:18:02,100 --> 00:18:03,930
in the moist areas.
224
00:18:04,900 --> 00:18:07,930
It has heart-shaped leaves
which are purple underneath.
225
00:18:08,830 --> 00:18:10,930
The leaves are purple underneath, right?
226
00:18:11,100 --> 00:18:11,900
Yes.
227
00:18:12,730 --> 00:18:13,530
All right!
228
00:18:17,900 --> 00:18:18,830
What's wrong?
229
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:21,630
Hotaru is injured...
230
00:18:22,900 --> 00:18:24,030
Let us be.
231
00:18:25,500 --> 00:18:26,370
All right...
232
00:18:34,730 --> 00:18:37,230
Moist areas...
233
00:18:37,270 --> 00:18:39,630
I guess I should search
by the riverbank!
234
00:18:41,370 --> 00:18:44,370
There! That's gotta be it.
235
00:18:50,330 --> 00:18:54,430
Huh? What the hell?!
This is a chameleon plant!
236
00:18:54,470 --> 00:18:57,430
Aw man, there were lots
of 'em along the way!
237
00:18:59,130 --> 00:19:00,100
Damn it!
238
00:19:00,130 --> 00:19:01,970
I wasted so much time!
239
00:19:13,030 --> 00:19:13,970
What the...?
240
00:19:19,470 --> 00:19:21,400
What the hell is this...?
241
00:19:23,030 --> 00:19:25,800
The Forbidden Jutsu of
the Tsuchigumo Clan
242
00:19:25,900 --> 00:19:29,700
It was engraved...
into this child's very own body.
243
00:19:31,300 --> 00:19:32,670
How could they do such a thing?
244
00:19:33,270 --> 00:19:36,470
To hell with Forbidden Jutsu...
To hell with the clan...
245
00:19:36,830 --> 00:19:38,030
To hell with one's master!
246
00:19:38,770 --> 00:19:41,730
And all these selfish guys who
do atrocious things
247
00:19:41,770 --> 00:19:44,470
to those who serve them
without a hint of remorse.
248
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:49,700
They think of us...as mere tools.
249
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,370
Tools...who don't speak.
250
00:20:00,230 --> 00:20:01,370
Hotaru...
251
00:21:36,630 --> 00:21:38,670
What is this, Tonbei?
252
00:21:38,770 --> 00:21:42,670
So En no Gyoja left behind
a way to extract the Forbidden Jutsu.
253
00:21:42,830 --> 00:21:45,670
It is evident that our clan
no longer has the strength
254
00:21:45,700 --> 00:21:47,400
to safeguard the Forbidden Jutsu.
255
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:49,570
To prevent its misuse,
256
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:52,200
we have no choice
but to destroy the jutsu.
257
00:21:52,570 --> 00:21:56,000
Destroy it?
What'll happen to Hotaru then?!
258
00:21:56,670 --> 00:21:59,970
Next time on Naruto Shippuden:
"Heir to Darkness"
259
00:22:01,530 --> 00:22:03,700
Damn it! Isn't there
another way?!
260
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:08,300
I see...
261
00:22:08,370 --> 00:22:11,330
So sometimes, a hand-made present
is very effective.
262
00:22:13,500 --> 00:22:14,700
Hey, Sai!
263
00:22:14,900 --> 00:22:15,530
Hi.
264
00:22:15,830 --> 00:22:18,370
Has something come up?
Calling me out of the blue like this.
265
00:22:18,430 --> 00:22:20,100
It's nothing really...
266
00:22:20,670 --> 00:22:22,070
Then don't call me.
267
00:22:22,330 --> 00:22:27,230
But I drew this for you.
Will you accept it?
268
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:29,070
Huh?!
269
00:22:29,170 --> 00:22:30,030
Don't you like it?
270
00:22:30,230 --> 00:22:32,930
No, it's not that...
Well, actually it is...
271
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,530
But guess I'll take it if you insist.
272
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:39,930
He made it for me,
so I'll hang it up somewhere.
273
00:22:41,300 --> 00:22:43,670
Huh? Wh-What is this?! Hey!
274
00:22:47,270 --> 00:22:50,030
Hey! Cut it out, will ya?!
275
00:22:56,830 --> 00:23:00,670
That Sai...
He's done it this time!
276
00:23:01,700 --> 00:23:04,000
I wonder if Naruto liked it?
277
00:23:04,670 --> 00:23:07,300
Tune in again!
