Hey.

[Madara] We really should talk, Naruto Uzumaki.

Go to hell!

A Rasengan right off the bat, huh?

You do know that doesn't work on me, right?

Huh?!

Naruto, you just stay put.

Should've figured. Kakashi of the Sharingan. You're quick.

We won't let you get your hands on Naruto that easily, Madara Uchiha.

You did hear what I just said, didn't you?

There are no attacks that exist, that work against Madara Uchiha.

Even if you're erasing yourself, or this is just an astral projection,

You'll still have to manifest physically to take Naruto.

Otherwise you can't actually take him.

I'll wait for that moment.

[Yamato] You're in my territory now.

[chuckle] Well, I never imagined that this would be easy.

I will admit I have a plan in mind.

But at this moment, I'm only here to talk.

Talk?

That's right.

I want to know what you did that made Nagato betray me.

Naruto, you've sparked my interest.

I don't care about what you want.

What are you planning to do with Sasuke?!

Come on, tell me!

Sasuke, huh?

Very well then, I'll tell you.

About the man who's been steeped to his very marrow in the Shinobi World's hatred and resentment.

The story of Sasuke Uchiha.

But Sasuke's story cannot be told without also telling Itachi's.

So first, I'll tell you the truth about Itachi.

Where is Sasuke now?! Answer me!

Well, since you leave me no choice, I'll give you a little hint.

[crush]

Cee! Begin!

Sir!

You didn't have to kill him, you know.

If we'd restrained and interrogated him, we might have obtained useful Intel on the Akatsuki!

It wouldn't work; no one in the Akatsuki has ever talked. They're all completely devoted.

Okisuke, Urakaku.

Give the order to find Sasuke at once.

Issue a number two battle-ready state alert.

Yes, sir! Yes, sir!

Lord Raikage!

You! One-eyed Mist guy!

Huh?

Keep that eye trained on the Hokage!

Cee, and Darui! Come on!

I'm sorry about the desk and the wall there.

Hey, Darui, quit yapping and let's go already!

That Raikage is truly violent.

Even becoming the Kage hasn't changed that unruly Cloud brat!

[radio] Number Two battle-ready state alert.

Search for the intruder, Sasuke Uchiha.

Dispatch three squads to the tower entrance.

Set up defensive line.

[radio static] Roger.

Move out!

This is...

Karin, what's the matter?

The Samurai's movements have suddenly become erratic. I think they're looking for us!

[Suigetsu] What?! But why?! We didn't do anything to get their attention.

I bet that it was Zetsu.

Huh??

They're already gone.

Huagh!

"Racing Lightning"

[Karin] It's no good. There are too many!

We'll be found and captured in no time.

That bastard. I'll get him for this.

I see; so that's how they use their chakra.

[gasp]

[Sasuke] I'm very irritated right now.

Attack, and I doubt I can hold back.

We could say the same to you!

He repelled them?!

His blade work is similar to ours!

Karin, stop monitoring those guys.

Find out where Danzo is!

But what about the samurai?

Don't worry about that; I'll deal with them.

Locate Danzo!

[gasp]

Sasuke's chakra changed!

Eyyaahhh!!

Look at him! And this is the guy who warned me not to kill anyone!

What's this?

He's not the same Sasuke he was before.

(slashed by sword reax, getting kicked, being stabbed, one samurai after another)

His chakra's thicker than when he's in the Curse Mark Second State.

And,

It's colder.

He's not alone!

[Cee] Lord Raikage. There is one chakra that is erasing many other chakras.

I'm sure it's coming from Sasuke!

Where?!

It's right below us!

Lord Raikage, you're not going to--!

[gasp]

Something big is coming our way!

What's that?

[sounds of cave-in]

Hey! Kid!

I am going to teach you the fear of true fury!

Sasuke! Don't go in alone!

He's lost it.

Water Style! Water Wall!!

So he's the one.

Lightning Style! Emotion Wave!

(slt om stab of discomfort reax)

D'yagh!

Boss, just as the Intel reported, sasuke definitely has Lightning Nature.

And Fire Nature, as well. He's bound to use Fire Style, then.

Darui, keep Water Style ready at all times.

Got it.

How do they have so much information about Sasuke?

Hey, there, the one in the middle.

I recognize him.

These guys are Hidden Cloud jonin. And the big guy is their Raikage.

They won't let us pass easily.

Requesting reinforcements! Sasuke got us!

I'll stop him!

He's going to attack!

Lightning Illusion! Flash Pillar!

[Jugo] He's trying to blind us!

Sasuke!

No!

Jugo, relax. It's just a genjutsu.

Should've figured, Sharingan. Still.

You saw through the genjutsu, but it's too late!

Sasuke!

Aw, damn it; that's just great!

My Executioner's Blade's broken!

Well, it cracked when we fought Eight Tails; there's nothing you can do about it now.

[growl]

He's safe! Nice, Suigetsu!

Who told you to butt in?

Are you kidding me?! What's with the attitude, Sasuke?!

Not that I don't expect it.

But we came to help!

Shinobi sure fight rough. Unbelievable!

Cee, check and see if they've got other allies hiding around here.

It'd be weak to have to worry about more popping in.

I'm pretty sure that there was one more.

But if I focus on that, it'll be harder for me to fight with you in the battle.

We don't need you to fight. Boss and I are enough to handle these guys.

If I keep after Danzo, that Cee guy's gonna suss me out.

Karin will probably extinguish her chakra and just lie low. she can do things like that.

[Jugo] That guy in the back is a Sensory-Type ninja, huh?

We gotta take him down.

I'll do it.

It doesn't look like he'll ever rise again.

[Mifune] Lord Ao, please confirm whether the Hokage's Visual Jutsu is still engaged.

[Ao] No. Right now, the flow in his Chakra Network is quiet. The jutsu's undone.

[Danzo] All of you just relax, it's not a visual jutsu that I can use that many times in a day.

[Ao] Be quiet! I shall decide that. For you are a man who simply can't be trusted.

[Danzo] I can't believe the Byakugan fell into someone else's hands.

[Danzo] If a Hidden Leaf Hyuga turned traitor, I would've taken care of them at once.

You're probably planning to dispose of me now that I know your secret. Better think again!

I'll fight you myself, if need be.

Especially since your Visual Jutsu may be connected somehow

with the one that manipulated the Fourth Mizukage.

[Mifune] Lord Hokage, all ninjutsu is prohibited here.

You have lost trust and credibility.

A shame, since I may have still chosen you, had you not resorted to such tactics.

[Danzo] But "may have chosen" wasn't good enough.

I'm prepared to do whatever it takes in order to protect the shinobi world.

It's imperative that our whole world unite as one.

Just as the First Hokage Hashirama brought together his clan and founded the Hidden Leaf Village.

Now we must merge all the villages and create one shinobi world.

This shall never be accomplished through discussion and negotiation.

But it takes time and patience to actualize one's ideals.

Impatience makes one shortsighted and invites failure.

That's what happened to you.

[Danzo] Taking the time to do it morally and ethically will result in no change.

And the Akatsuki will eventually destroy the whole shinobi world.

[Tsuchikage] But your dream is nothing more than an impossibility!

It may sound noble, but in the end, you'll only breed distrust, ill feelings, hatred, and resentment.

Why, Danzo! We can't even trust your words at this point.

It doesn't matter whether you trust me or not. Results are necessary.

[Gaara] If we can't even trust each other,

If that's the state of our world and of being human, then we have no future.

Eh?

What does that mean?

Without mutual trust and understanding,

All that will remain in this world is fear and terror.

I simply can't tolerate giving up so easily, or any plan that doesn't incorporate morality.

You pose such difficult concepts so simply.

But you're a green brat who knows nothing about running a village.

Tch!

But I'll tell you what. Now's your chance to ask anything you'd like!

As your senior, I'll answer any question you have. Eh, Danzo? [chuckle]

Say again, old man?!

Don't do it, Kankuro. He's still Tsuchikage. He's a village leader!

Hold on. Did she say STILL a leader?

Ignore them.

Then let me ask you this.

Sure! Go head, no holds barred. Ask away!

When did all of you forsake yourselves?

What?!

What a pure-hearted child.

Heh!

All right, Gaara, what are we gonna do now?

We once worked with the Hidden Leaf on their mission to retrieve Sasuke. But he's sunk so low he's joined the Akatsuki.

So, Sasuke Uchiha, huh?

Hey! Don't leave without your guards!

Hey, Gramps, he scored a point on you.

Oh, shut it!

Lord Tsuchikage, What do we do? Tell us.

Shall we join the fight?

You fool! And what happens if my back pain gets worse?!

But I want to see this Sasuke who supposedly took down Deidara.

Fine, do as you please!

But if you get caught in the Raikage's crossfire, you'll die. Stay out of his way.

All right! What about you, Akatsuchi?

I have to keep an eye on Lord Tsuchikage in case there's trouble with his back. So I'll stay here with him.

Hm. Later, then.

Lord Danzo, please, sir, allow one of us to venture forth and retrieve the Sharingan.

[Ao] All of you from the Leaf!

Just stay right where you are! Lord Raikage has ordered you to!

No! Fuu, Torune- Desist.

For the present time, we'll play nice.

Rwaaa ha ha ha ha!

I'll kill you all!!

His change in personality's more surprising than his appearance, You know?

Focus! He's got unbelievable chakra!

WAAAHHH-hahahahaha!

I can't believe Jugo actually gave in to his killer impulse voluntarily this time.

What do you think the odds are that he still remembers we're both on his side?

Haahh! Now who's first?!

You need to learn your place!

[gasp]

Hrrnng!

[gasp]

Gotcha!

Nice blade you got there.

Well, I'm not giving you mine just 'cause yours is broken!

[straining] Hrrghh...

[squeezed] Hungh!

Well, that's one down.

I'm no weakling! Mere Sharingan can't take me down!

Lord Raikage's nerve transmission and reaction speed are on par with the Leaf's Yellow Flash.

It's impressive those guys are even doing this well!

But Lord Raikage used Lightning Style Chakra to augment his reflexes.

Not even the Sharingan can keep up!

Plus, there's still--

Huh?!

Die!

Boss, no!

Point blank!

Did Jugo get him?!

What?! Lord Raikage hit him and he still survived?!

[gasp]

This This has to be genjutsu!

These guys are using each other's attacks to distract us!

I can't believe I fell for it. Damn it!

Can't... move...

Cee?!

[Darui] Cee! Don't go to sleep on the job! Get up!

AaaAAAAAH ha ha ha ha!!

I killed him! I just killed the big guy!

I guess Jugo can be useful, after all.

All right, they can't detect me now.

This is my chance to find Danzo.

[gasp]

Now, who's next?! AAhh-haahhh!

Agh!

[Gaara] It isn't too late for you. You still have the chance to go back, Sasuke.

[Sasuke] So, if I were to return? What is there for me?

[Sasuke] I shut my eyes a long time ago.

[Sasuke] The things that I seek now lie only in the darkness.

[Gaara] Wait!

[Naruto] Next time on Naruto Shippuden, "Sasuke's Ninja Way."

[Kankuro] Gaara, don't let your personal feelings interfere.
