Right here, right now.

The five -colored crows took it away and tore it up.

Now, open your heart's eyes and see the past and the present.

Right here, right now, rock!

Right here! Right now! Right here!

Right now!

Once again, here we go.

I'll nail it this time.

You're the only one who can cure Lord Orochimaru's arms. You know that.

So, do we have a deal?

I'm offering to bring your dear little brother.

And your beloved back to life with a forbidden jutsu that I have developed.

Come now, don't you want to see them again, dear Tsunade?

Think of your brother and my uncle. They wouldn't have wanted any part of this.

It would be a betrayal of them, a betrayal of yourself.

Have you forgotten all of your dreams?

I'll cut to the chase.

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

the fifth Hokage.

Remember the Hokage that have come before, and all they've accomplished for

Leaf Village.

This was their dream, and they were all willing to gamble everything to achieve

it, even their lives.

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 sacrifices.

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

And down they go!

All right!

Let's ship it!

What do you say?

You in or out, lady?

Han, what's it gonna be?

What's it going to be?

If she agrees to our proposition, then your arms will be healed.

And you can proceed with your plan to destroy the village hidden in the weeds.

And Lady Tsunade is reunited with the two people she loves most.

But if she should say no, what then?

Then I'd simply use force to bend her to my way of thinking.

You really think it would be that easy?

That's what you're for.

No need to worry.

In all the world, there is no one who knows Tsunade better than I.

Including her greatest weakness.

She'll agree to the proposition.

I guarantee it.

Now listen, in the third step, you've got to draw up 100 % of what you've

learned so far, and then maintain it.

In

other

words, keeping the power and the rotation of your chakra at their

I get it.

I can see it in my head.

But no matter how hard I try, I just can't focus all my chakra into a neat

little ball.

The point of teaching it to someone who can never master it. Giving him false

hopes like that.

Filling his head with stupid ideas.

Making him think he could actually be Hokage someday.

You take care now.

When are you meeting Orochimaru again?

The look of guilt on her face.

Things could be even worse than I suspected.

One week, she said.

That worried me.

And it's been nearly a week since Naruto slept here.

I think I better have another little talk with Tsunade.

Too late.

What do you want?

It's a lovely night.

You wanna quench your thirst?

Unless I'm wrong, the week you gave Naruto is up tomorrow, isn't it?

I wonder where he is.

I haven't seen him in days.

Beats me.

I think I'll have something to eat.

Bring me the special, will ya? Coming right up.

Here you go.

Ah, now that looks delicious.

Lady Tunade.

How is he doing?

He's collapsed from exhaustion.

And his right hand is severely burned from concentrated chakra.

He's out of it.

He won't wake up till the day after tomorrow at the earliest.

Old Jiraiya was right about me.

To think I've sunk so low, I'd bet against a kid.

What am I getting so torn up about?

It's his problem, not mine.

And tomorrow?

Please tell me you're not going tomorrow.

Why don't you answer? Say something!

Ladies do not answer me! I need to know!

If you tell me you're going...

What then?

I will try and stop you if it costs me my life.

Shizune, have you forgotten who you're talking to?

What? Are you still here?

Come on, sun's up. Time to call it a night.

Hey, wake up. Time to go home.

Come on now.

What the?

Hey, old man, you okay?

It's important that nothing interferes with these negotiations.

Your point being?

Tsunade's companion could be trouble.

I'd feel better if she were dead.

It seems that you don't quite trust me, Orochimaru.

At least not yet. I trusted in you to act without that knowledge.

I'm planning to leave Sasuke in your capable hands.

Very well.

Kabuto, wait.

You know if it's your desire to stop me, I'm afraid your only chance is to kill

Sasuke now.

You can't possibly hope to kill me.

It's Monday morning.

Why? What is it?

It's amazing.

Are you sure you're feeling all right?

You were supposed to be out of it for two full days at least.

Not a chance.

No matter how beat up I get, just give me a good night's sleep and I'm right

back at the top of my game.

Of course, the nine -tailed fox.

Besides, I've got a date to keep with that rotten old witch Tsunade.

Today's the day I wipe that smirk off her face.

No, you've mastered the jutsu?

No, not completely, but close enough. So I'll just wing it. I'll be fine.

What am I doing?

We're running out of time.

Stay here, Naruto.

You hear me? Stay here.

What in the world? What is it?

Huh?

He slipped me a Mickey.

Double -crossing little vixen.

She must have spiked my drink when I wasn't looking.

I can't build up any chakra.

My body is so weak, I don't think I can even throw a kunai straight.

Straight enough to nearly kill me.

Great, pervy sage!

And you're always going on about what a great ninja you are!

What, did you get distracted by her pretty face?

Shut up!

She possesses a healer's knowledge of herbs and elixirs.

I should have known better.

Only Tsunade could whip up a knockout drug that even a ninja couldn't detect.

But still, to be caught off guard like that, I must be losing my touch.

Kill you!

I swear!

Are you feeling better now, Master Jiraiya?

I suppose so, compared to how I felt before.

I'm back to maybe 30%. I wasn't

expecting to find Jiraiya the mountain. Sage.

That's more than I bargained for.

I may have to rethink that.

And Naruto.

I think you'd be here too.

Hmm.

Okay, Shizune.

Yes? What is it?

It's time you told us about your mistress in Orochimaru.

What kind of deal are they making?

Orochimaru?

I never imagined she would go through with it.

That's why I... I didn't say anything about it before.

But now... There's no time to lose.

You must come with me, quickly.

I'll explain on the way.

Let's go, then.

Don't forget me! I'm coming, too!

Well, what's your answer?

You can't be serious.

The answer has to be no. At least it better be.

So, things are worse than I thought.

Could it be that the loss of those two has clouded her judgment?

You give me no choice, do not I? If I have to kill you, I will.

I will heal your arms.

But in exchange, you keep your hands off the village.

Very well.

Shall we?

As soon as his arms are healed, Orochimaru is planning to destroy the

Village. Of course, that's just what I'd expect.

And trust me, he'll do far more than that if we don't manage to stop him

somehow. Who does this creep think he is?

That's what you're for.

No need to worry.

What is the meaning of this?

Am I to understand you've really come here to betray me?

Not a day.

Thank you.

From the look of things, I'm guessing Tsunade turned down the deal. Where is

that old lady anyway?

I've got a thing or two to say to her.

Don't get your shorts in a knot. She can't be far.

Whoa, what the heck was that?

Speak of the devil. Sounds like they're still at it. Come on, Naruto.

Hurry. I'm coming. You just try and keep up, pervy sage.
