Yeah!

my god

The demon in the snow.

Gato, I don't understand. What is all this?

Why are you here? And who are these thugs you've brought with you?

Well,

you see, there's been a slight change in plan.

According to the new plan, you die right here on this bridge, Zabuza.

That's right. You're too expensive.

So I've decided to take you off the payroll.

Of course, even the thugs I brought with me cost something. So if you could

manage to slaughter a few of them before they take you down, I'd appreciate it.

Think you can manage that, Demon Ninja of the Mist?

Look at you. You look about as demonic as a wet kitten.

There are so many of them. One rogue ninja was bad enough.

Well, well, Kakashi.

It would seem our fight is at an end.

Since I am no longer in Gato's employ, Tazuna is safe. We have no quarrel.

Yeah, I suppose you're right.

That reminds me, you little punk. You grabbed me and nearly broke my arm.

I've been meaning to repay you for that.

I only wish he was alive to feel it. Get away!

Get away from him, you scum! Hey, stop.

Use your head.

Well, what about you, Zabuza? You gonna let him do that?

Be quiet, you fool.

Haku's dead. What does it matter?

What? You mean you can just stand there and watch him get treated like a dog?

You and Haku were together for years. Doesn't that mean anything?

You don't understand the way of Shinobi.

I merely used him just as Gato used me.

Now it's over.

His usefulness is at an end.

The loss of his strength and skill, yes, that means something to me.

But the boy, nothing.

If you mean that, you're an even bigger rat than I thought.

Okay, that's enough.

Calm down, Naruto.

He's not the enemy. Not right now.

Ah! Shut up! Far as I'm concerned, he's enemy number one!

Why, you... You ungrateful... After everything he did for you, Haku lived

for you!

Is there someone who's precious to you?

You were the most important thing in the world to him!

For me, there is only one person who matters, and my purpose is to protect

serve him. And that purpose is what gives me my strength.

And he meant nothing to you? Nothing at all?

The way of Shinobi is very difficult for me.

While he was sacrificing everything for you, you never felt anything at all for

him?

But I will do anything to see that his dream is fulfilled, even become Shinobi

if I must.

And if I become stronger, does that mean I'll become as cold -hearted as you

are?

He threw his life away.

And for what? For you and your dream?

I want only to make his dream come true.

That is my dream.

You never let him have a dream of his own. But he didn't care.

I was happy.

And you just tossed him aside like he was nothing.

A broken tool!

Man, that's so wrong!

So wrong!

You talk too much.

Deep.

Deeper than any blade.

While he fought you, his heart was breaking in two.

You see, Haku was always too soft and too kind.

He felt pain and sorrow, and now, curse him, I feel them too.

And something else.

I feel content that this is the way it ends.

Huh?

Well, cat got your tongue.

Are you so surprised to discover that I'm human?

Even Shinobi are human.

No matter how hard we try to escape that simple fact, we always fail.

Well, at least I have failed.

Boy, give me your kunai.

He must be out of his mind. One against all of us? What's he thinking?

Somebody do something!

Crazy fool.

If you're so eager to join your friend, go ahead.

But you're not taking me.

Not this time.

I won't be joining Haku.

Where he's gone, I cannot follow.

Stay back!

Stay back!

We wouldn't be welcome where Haku's gone to.

Hell's where we're going, Gato.

Can't think of a more fitting destination for a demon ninja, can you?

I'm told there are many demons down there of all shapes and sizes.

Oh, yes, I should fit right in.

You, on the other hand, Gato, well, I fear you're in for a long and very

eternity.

Don't turn away.

When you live like a warrior, this is how it ends.

Where am I?

Am I alive?

Or... Sakura?

Can it be?

It is.

Sakura... It's hard to breathe with you on top of me.

So things turned out right after all.

No! What are you doing? You shouldn't move! How's Naruto?

And what happened to that guy in the mask?

Naruto is just fine.

But the one in the mask... He's dead.

Dead? But how?

Did Naruto do it? Oh, I... I came in late. I'm not sure what happened. He was

protecting Zabuza.

I had faith in you, Sasuke.

I knew you'd pull through.

You're too cool a guy to stay down for long.

He never meant to, from the very beginning.

But how?

While he fought you, his heart was breaking in two.

You see, Haku was always too soft and too kind.

I see.

Well, well. Well, wonders never cease.

Amazing.

Hey! Yoo -hoo!

Don't go getting too comfortable.

This party ain't over yet.

Who's gonna pay us now that Gato's gone?

No way we're going to leave here empty -handed.

So we'll just have to hit that village and see what they've got for us. Yeah!

Come on! Not good.

Come on, Kakashi -sensei. You must have a choo -choo that can take care of this

bunch of losers.

Not right now. I use too much of my chakra.

Get him, boys!

There's one little thing you're forgetting about.

Before you set one foot in our village, you'll have to go through all of us.

Heroes usually show up at the last minute, you know.

They've all come.

The whole village.

I might have just enough chakra left to help you out.

Shadow clone jutsu.

Kakashi style.

Okay. Still want to fight?

Nope.

What is it?

Take me to him.

Before I go, I need to see him one last time.

Sure.

Snowing at this time of year?

Is it you, Aku?

Are you weeping?

Always at my side.

The least I can do is to be beside you at the end.

I know I cannot be, but... I wish I could go to where you

have gone.

Oh, I wish I could...

Join you there.

Aku.

Aku.

He told me...

Where he came from, it was always snowing.

All the time.

Of course.

His spirit was as pure as the snow.

You never know, Zabuza.

Maybe you will join him there.

Who's to say?

Is that really it, Kakashi -sensei?

Is that the ninja way?

To use and be used by people like tools?

Shinobi are all merely tools in the hands of destiny.

No point in wondering whether it's right or wrong.

It just is.

It's the same in the village hidden in the leaves.

Well, if you ask me if that's what being a ninja's all about, something's out of

whack.

Is that why we go through all this training?

Just to end up like them?

What is the reason for that?

Well,

it's a question without an answer. And that is something we ninja have to deal

with every day of our lives.

Like Zabuza and the kid.

Okay.

I've just come to a decision.

From now on, I'm finding my own ninja way.

A way that's straight and true and without any regrets.

From now on, I'm following the way of Naruto.

We could never

have finished the bridge without you.

I can't tell you how much we're going to miss you. Do be careful.

Thank you for everything.

Now, now.

Don't get all choked up.

We'll come back and visit real soon.

You swear you will?

Of course.

You know it, Ari. It's all right to cry if you want. There's nothing wrong with

that. Go for it. Who says I want to cry?

Anyway, if there's nothing wrong with it, then why don't you go on and cry?

No, you first.

Forget it.

Boys can be so pathetic.

It was all his doing.

That boy made you stronger, Inari. And you, in turn, made the rest of us

stronger.

It was thanks to that boy we were able to build a bridge to a place we'd never

known. A place where we found our courage. A place to fulfill our dreams.

Say, speaking of the bridge, now that it's finished, shouldn't we name it?

Yes, of course.

And I know just the name.

You do?

What? We'll call it...

The Great Naruto Bridge.

That's a very good name.

As soon as we get back, I'm gonna let Iruka -sensei fix me up a whole mess of

ramen to celebrate a mission accomplished.

Oh, and just wait till I tell Konohamaru about all my adventures.

The kid's gonna worship me.

Hey. Yeah?

Not you, Naruto.

Sasuke, when we get back, you wanna go out and do something together?

I don't think so, thanks.

Oh, okay.

Sakura! I'd do something with you if you want. What?

Hey, that was a private conversation.

You sure about that name, Tazuna?

It's a name that brought us good luck.

It'll do the same for the bridge.

I think this bridge will stand for a long, long time.

Perhaps it will even be famous one day. The name Naruto, known throughout the

world.

That would be something, wouldn't it?

Never coming down. Breaking through the content.

Never falling down.

My knees too shaken.

Like I was grown.

Sneaking out the classroom.

By the back door.

I'm all right, let me try some.

But I didn't care.

Quitting is wasting.

For people like me.

they gonna keep us here it's like we're in daycare man don't they understand

there are a lot of other dangerous ninja like sabaza out there next time a new

chapter begins the chunin exam
