Right here, right now, right now.

Thank you for

watching!

Right here,

right now!

Right now Right now

Right now Right now

Unforgivable! A total lack of respect!

Well, what happened?

It's like a typhoon hit it.

Yeah.

Hey, you there!

What's going on?

Tell me, what are you running from?

If you're smart, you'll run too!

There's a monster up there!

A monster?

Now just calm down.

What kind of monster? What do you mean?

A snake! A huge snake!

It crushed the castle without even trying!

Well, I'm out of here!

Wait, how big a snake? Hey, our village was attacked by one too! Wait, don't go!

I know something about big snakes!

Naruto. Come on! Huh?

This could be the same snake. I'd like a closer look at this monster.

You're going to destroy the Leaf Village?

Well, what do you say?

Lady Tsunade!

Don't trust them! Do not listen to their sweet words!

Think of your brother and my uncle.

They wouldn't have wanted any part of this!

This isn't what they lived for. It would be a betrayal of them, a betrayal of

yourself. Have you forgotten all your dreams?

I know.

It's not easy.

I know how tempting it must seem to you.

But wake up, Lady Tsunade! Open your eyes! Shut up, Shizune!

Don't decide now, but we'll expect your answer within the week.

Keep in mind, if your answer is yes, this jutsu requires two human

It will be your job to take care of that part.

What are we doing? I say we kill them both!

Here and now!

Come on, Lady Tsunade, what are we waiting for? Together we can...

Please do not enter.

Maybe a little weak right now.

However... Our good friend here has her own weaknesses too, doesn't she?

Of course. He's one of the Sannin, like Lady Tsunade.

So he knows.

I see you haven't lost it yet, have you?

Your fear of blood.

Hemophobia? Come, it's time we were going, Kabuto.

I look forward to your decision, Tsunade.

I'm sure it will be the right one.

Looks like we're too late.

Did the snake do this too?

Let's go, Naruto.

Huh? We're not going to find Tsunade here.

Not again. I was hoping he'd forgotten about her.

Welcome. Come on in.

Hey, you. Another round over here. It's late.

We should be going.

Don't you think?

Lady Tsunade.

This is getting ridiculous.

How many places are you going to drag me to?

I'm starting to think this old lady doesn't even exist.

Hmm.

Well, in the meantime, we'll get a bite to eat in here.

Hmm? Hey, what are you talking about? It's a tavern!

Yeah? So what?

You trying to be a bad influence on me?

Hello? I'm...

You idiot.

Nobody is making you do anything, all right? Just have a snack and stay out of

the grown -ups' way.

If we're just looking to eat, why don't we go somewhere real, like a ramen shop?

Why this stinky dump? When will you learn? This is just the sort of place

you can pick up information.

Hmm?

Huh?

Why are you here?

Finally, I've been looking everywhere for you. I should have known you'd be in

here.

That is Tsunade?

An old lady, right, pervy sage.

I should have known.

I can't believe it, to have met two of the other Sanin in the same day.

There you go. Enjoy.

It's like a reunion.

All the old faces coming back at the same time.

You mean Orochimaru.

So what happened?

Oh, nothing very much.

We said hello, that's about it.

I'll cut right to the chase.

Tsunade, in its wisdom, the village has come to the decision to name you as the

fifth Hokage.

Hey, can we get some service around here?

All right, all right, coming.

Fifth Hokage?

Where did that come from?

What the heck's going on here?

You heard about the third Hokage.

The third Hokage.

It's true.

It was Orochimaru's doing, right?

I heard about it. In fact, he told me himself.

Orochimaru's doing?

Hold on a second. You're saying he's the one who killed the old man?

Who is this Orochimaru guy?

He's one of the Sannin like Tsunade here, and yours truly.

But then why?

The Sanin are all from the Leaf Village, right? Why'd he do it? Who's this brat

you've got with you?

This is Naruto Uzumaki.

This kid is the Nine -Tailed?

Okay, wait a second!

I haven't finished yet! There's something about this I'm not getting!

So this guy, you know he's the one who murdered the Hokage!

What have you done about it?

He's Asanin. He's one of you guys. Why is he still walking around? Why haven't

you caught him?

And oh yeah, what's the deal about her being the fifth Okage? Naruto, sit down

and shut up.

Absolutely not. Sit down.

Hmm.

I'll say it once again.

The Leaf Village has made its decision.

They have chosen you to be the fifth Hokage.

So, what's your answer?

Do you accept it, Tsunade?

This time around, I'm going to grind the Hidden Leaf Village into dust.

I'm offering to bring your dear little brother and your beloved back to life.

I'm waiting.

What do you say?

Lady Tsunade.

I don't understand any of this!

Impossible.

I decline.

You know, it's kind of funny. That rings a bell.

I remember you saying those very words the first and only time I ever asked you

out.

Would somebody tell me what's going on?

What the heck are we doing here? You said we were going to bring her back to

village to cure Sasuke and Kakashi Sensei.

Then you pull this stuff about making her Hokage?

Then she goes and refuses it.

No. She couldn't really be thinking of accepting Orochimaru's offer.

Don't worry, Naruto.

She knows she can't refuse.

There can be no one else.

There was no one who contributed more to the Leaf's victory in the Great War.

She combines unrivaled skills as a warrior with the ability to heal others.

What's more, she is the granddaughter of the very first Hokage.

So in heritage and abilities, she is the clear and only choice to be the fifth

Hokage. And once she accepts her destiny, which she will, then she'll

come back with us to the village and there heal your friends.

You see, it's all been very carefully thought out by the highest councils of

village.

No offense, but it's not something an underage Genin is expected to

You're slipping, Jiraiya. This apprentice isn't at all like your last

a fool.

With a big mouth. Funny looking, too.

Oh, yeah!

Well, to be fair, it'd be hard for anyone to measure up to that standard.

The fourth Hokage showed all the signs of becoming the greatest ninja in

generations. Brimming with talent and natural ability.

Brilliant, popular, and to top it off, nearly as handsome as his teacher.

Oh, sure, but all that didn't save him from dying young.

Throwing his life away, all for the sake of the village?

Money's one thing.

A life's another.

To risk your life against all the odds?

That's a sucker's bet.

A sucker's bet?

My grandfather and his successor, they were also willing to die to defend the

village.

Well, they're both dead, all right.

And the village is no safer than it ever was.

Sounds to me you've changed, Tsunade.

I don't know what happened to make you like this, but to say such things out

loud?

Don't forget I'm not as young as I look.

The years have taught me a great deal.

Thought of Tobi -sensei, too.

He should have known better.

What did he expect?

Trying to be a hero at his age.

Huh.

Playing at Hokage.

Count me out, it's a fool's game.

That's enough.

People are looking.

I'm not going to let her sit there and make fun of the old man.

No way.

I don't care if she is a lady.

I'll knock that cynical sneer off her face.

Are you challenging me?

You've got guts, if nothing else.

Let's take this outside, kid.

No, no!

One of the

legendary Thannin taking on a snotty -nosed Denin?

I ought to be ashamed of myself.

Who you calling snotty?

Oh, stop trying to show off.

You see this?

One finger.

It's all I'm going to need to take you down.

Please, don't.

Well, what are you waiting for, kid?

Don't.

One question before you pass out.

Tell me, what makes you so touchy about Hokage?

It's because unlike you, that's my goal.

Just watch. Someday I'll be Hokage.

Remember this.

To be Hokage.

That is my dream!

That boy...

She

let her guard down!

There's no way I can take her head on!

Now's the time to use that jutsu!

Poké!

What?

Wait. That's just who it is.

Thank you.
