-This is the place?

-Gaara's on the other side of that boulder.

-It won't be easy getting past that barrier.

-What's the plan?

-We smash our way in.

-No, Lee.

Late as usual, Kakashi.

-Well, you see, we ran into a little trouble along the way.

-Naruto!

Sakura!

-Wait a minute.

By a little trouble, you don't mean me, do you, Kakashi?

-Well?

-Naruto.

-Well then.

Let's do this, Kakashi.

-Right.

-(THINKING) Hang on, Gaara.

Just hang on.

[theme music]

NEJI: Inside, it looks like there's a large cavern.

But--

NARUTO: But what?

NEJI: I just can't quite make out what's going on in there.

I see several people.

NARUTO: Neji, what about Gaara?

What's happening?

Is he one of the people you see?

NEJI: Back off a second.

I'm trying to locate him now.

NARUTO: Negi!

NEJI: Take it easy.

I don't-- what is that thing?

-What is it?

What's going on?

Neji, what's in there?

-Let go of me.

-Well, what did you see?

-It's hard to describe with words.

Wait, so that would mean--

-Yes.

It means that whatever it is, we will

have to go see it for ourselves.

-That makes things easy, doesn't it?

[roaring] Coming through!

Yah!

Quite a barrier.

-Hmm.

It's getting noisy out there.

-It looks like we've got ourselves some expected

visitors.

-But which group is it now, hmm?

The one that my man Kisame was stalling, or perhaps--

-Both.

It's both groups.

-So they all arrived at the same time.

Interesting.

But what a pity.

They're too late.

-It seems one of them is also a jinchuriki.

[evil laugh] Oh, don't be jealous now, Itachi.

[evil laugh]

-What is your plan?

-Well, Lee, it's pretty obvious we

need to get rid of that barrier.

-And how do we do that?

-Before we can even think about breaking through,

we should know what kind of barrier it is.

-That's right.

So, figure out the type of barrier.

That's step one, right Kakashi?

KAKASHI: Yeah.

-What do you think?

-Hmm.

It could be a five seal barrier.

-I agree with you.

-Five seal barrier?

-It's a strong layer of protection,

in which five tags with the word forbidden on them

are fastened around the area that's being guarded.

One forbidden tag is in front of us.

And four more must be in other locations.

GUY: Can't we just pull them off?

KAKASHI: It's not that easy.

The tags are in five different places.

But they have to be taken down at the exact same moment.

-So we'd have to remove them simultaneously?

-Right.

The barrier won't budge unless all five tags are pulled off

simultaneously.

It's a tall order.

That's only one tag.

-Which means there's four more out there.

-All right, then.

Let's do it.

How do we figure out where the other taxes are?

-Neji.

-I understand.

Byakugan!

I found them.

NARUTO: Awesome, Neji.

Point 'em out.

NEJI: One is on a boulder about 500 meters northeast of us.

The second one is on a tree trunk

beside a river bank 350 meters south-southeast.

The third you'll don't find 650 meters northwest, on a cliff.

And the last one is in the woods, less than 800 meters

to the southwest.

That's four.

-If that's the case, each one of them is pretty far apart.

How will we signal each other?

-I think I can handle that.

We should just be in range for these.

They're wireless radios.

-Whoa, that's amazing.

-Good thinking.

-Yes.

-Ha!

OK.

So we'll stay in constant communication,

and follow Neji's directions to the tags.

-Well, shouldn't we get this show on the road?

We got company outside to deal with.

And there's still the small matter

of a mission we have to complete.

-Yes.

Let's get going.

-What about the intruders?

-I wouldn't lose too much sleep over them.

We don't even know if they can get in here.

-Don't underestimate them.

You should know better, Kisame.

--[laughing] Well, they do have brute strength going for them.

I'll give them that.

-Sasori, [inaudible].

-Hmm?

-Take care of our new friends outside.

-I had a feeling you'd say that.

Hm.

-But I want the jinchuriki alive.

-Understood.

-Everyone else is dismissed.

-Let's go.

-Right.

-Well, I suppose we'll be leaving, too.

-Itachi, this nine-tailed jinchuriki, what is he like?

-Go on.

Tell him.

-He's the one who bursts in and barks first.

-Huh?

What do you mean?

-Doesn't he have any identifying characteristics other

than barking, hmm?

Huh, guess not.

-Well, that's it, then.

-[grumbling]

-You OK with this?

He was your target, after all.

-Let's move.

Right.

-OK, let's find these tags, and get rid of them.

Team Guy is the faster team, so we'll

be the ones to handle this mission.

-We're all counting on you.

GUY: All right, Lee, you head northwest into the woods.

-Yes, you got it.

GUY: The northeast boulder is all yours, Neji.

-I can handle that.

-Tenten, you'll get the south-southeast.

-Right.

No problem.

-And I'll take care of the one on the northwest cliff.

That's the one in the trickiest location,

and should be the hardest to eliminate.

KAKASHI: What's the frequency?

-174.

-Copy that.

-Testing, do you read me?

-[wailing]

[feedback]

-Lee, your microphone's up too loud.

-A thousand apologies.

-Lee, the mic.

-Huh?

Sorry, guys.

-My wireless settings are good to go.

-My radio's set, too.

-All right.

Team Guy.

Hmm?

-Oh, right.

-[chuckling]

-Uh, OK.

-Hm.

[chuckling] Hmm?

Hmm!

Hmm!

Hmm?

Hmm!

Hmm!

[chuckling] Onward with the power of youth!

Atta!

-Yeah!

-Atta!

-Yeah!

-Atta!

-Yeah!

-Atta!

-Yeah!

-And one more for good luck.

Atta!

-Yeah!

-Scatter!

-Oh man.

That was so cool.

Hey, we should do it, too.

I would rather die.

-Me too.

-Not a chance.

-Well, guess it's about time for me to shove off.

There's no real reason I should stick around.

I'd just be getting in the way.

-Thanks, Pakkun.

Good work.

-All right, then.

See you guys later.

-The rest is up to you two.

-Not a problem.

-I'll be waiting for your report.

-Now let's recap the mission.

The members of Team Guy are to find their tags, and stand by.

After all four have reached their positions,

we'll remove the scrolls together on my signal.

Got that?

-Got it.

GUY: Team Kakashi will take out theirs at the same moment.

And just like that, will break the five seal barrier.

-And the moment the barrier's gone,

Sakura will destroy the boulder at the entrance.

That will be our signal to charge inside, and rescue

Gaara.

-(THINKING) Gaara!

-What's taking them.

Hmm.

I wish they would just hurry up and get in here.

Hmm.

Sasori, what's the matter, my man?

I thought you didn't like to be kept waiting?

Hm.

-Yes.

I hate it.

-(THINKING) Sasori, it's absurd.

I never imagined a day like this could come.

-This is Neji.

Ready, and in position.

GUY: I found my tag as well.

I'm almost to it.

-Got mine too.

LEE (ON RADIO): N-Neji?

-I understand, Lee.

Byakugan!

It's just south of you.

A little further.

There.

Look up.

-OK, I have it.

Lee to Guy Sensei, in position.

-Well, Kakashi, you guys all set?

-Ready when you are.

We'll make our assault using the button hook entry.

-Sounds like a plan to me.

-Yeah.

-All right, everyone.

Get ready to remove the tags on the count of three.

On my mark, one, two, three!

-Now, Sakura!

-Right!

[roaring]

-(THINKING) Sounds like it all worked out.

Huh?

-What is that?

-Huh?

-[gasp]

-We're too late.

-Oh.

[chanting]

-(THINKING) Sasori.

[chanting]

-Finally.

Well then, which one of you would be the jinchuriki?

-You!

You bastards!

I'll kill the both of you!

-The one who bursts in, and starts barking.

That would be him, then.

-Sasori, my man, I think you're correct.

Hmm.

[music playing]

NARUTO: I'm going to take a normal scroll you

can find anywhere.

And when I count to three, a huge shuriken appears.

-Hey, you can't steal somebody's abilities.

NARUTO: Pipe down.

I'm practicing for a talent show.

SAKURA: What did you say?

LADY CHIYO: Enough with this ridiculous bickering.

Listen.

I'll show you both my best skill.

Now watch these wonderful kunai knives in midair.

SAKURA: Oh, whoa, the kunai knives are floating.

LADY CHIYO: I can teach you for 300 ryo.

NARUTO: I can't do it without the puppet master Jutsu anyway.

Next time, traps activate.

Team Guy's enemies.

[music playing]

-Kisame, my man.

-What is it?

-The guy you're teamed up with, Itachi,

what can you tell me about him?

-Well, let me see.

Itachi was born into the Uchiha clan.

He's good with fire style Jutsu.

But his scariest technique by far is the Mangekyo Sheringan.

-Oh, what's that?

-The ultimate visual Jutsu, combining powerful hypnosis

and penetrating sight.

It allows him to use advanced Jutsu

like Amaterasu and Tsyukuyomi.

-Sounds like he's got himself a pretty artistic Jutsu.

-Now I've got a question for you.

Can you pick out which Sheringan is Itachi's?

The answer is A.

-Pretty handsome guy.

And he seems quite popular, unlike you.

-Hmm?

Something the matter?

-I'm just a freakshow, aren't I?

-Yikes.

That bothered you more than I thought.
