Original subtitles

[Kiba] Like before, whoever gets to the finish line first wins all this!

[eager barking]

Don't worry, Akamaru. I'll split it with you once I win.

What are you talking about? I'm going to win it this time.

No way, this candy's gonna be all mine!

Choji, you really going to do this?

You know Kiba's going to win. He always does.

Just trust me. There is no way that I'm gonna lose when food is on the line!

[Kiba] Shikamaru!

What?

If you're out on this one, keep time for us, would you?

Egh. This is such a drag.

[Naruto] Wait! Don't start yet!

Huh? Huh? Huh?

I want in on this! I accept your challenge, too!

Huah!

What?! Why bother? You don't have a chance!

Go on, get lost!

Yeah, beating you is just too easy!

But with his share, we'll have even more candy!

Ah!

Hee! Hee! Hee!

Heh heh heh heh!

Choji's right. Anyone can join as long as they put up some candy.

Sounds good to me! I've got mine here!

[chuckle]

I won't be able to eat all this!

Don't act like you've already won!

Yeah you'll always be a loser!

Well, I'll go to the finish line and give you guys the signal to start, okay?

[Naruto] This one's mine! I'll be first for sure!

[determined growl]

All right, any second now.

Enough talking, let's go!

Rawr!

Yahoo!

Aroo!

Yes!

How fast?

Whoa! It's a new record!

[panting]

Aw... My candy!

[heavy breathing]

[Kiba] Heh heh heh heh!

[Inagi] Damn it! Kiba won again!

Well, at least we beat that idiot Naruto!

Aaaaggh!

Yap! Yap!

Aw, my candy's all gone!

Again! Now!

C'mon, one more race! Let's go!

Yeah, right.

Beat my time, and then I'll race you again.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

[dreaming] Heh heh! I'll be first no matter how many times we race.

Huh?

[whine]

Oh... just a dream.

[sigh]

Kiba's Determination

Rrrrrr.

[yawn]

Sleepyheads don't get any breakfast!

A war's about to start, you know!

Yeah?

I'm on it.

I'll crush all of them by myself!

A fool! That's what you are!

Don't take war so lightly.

Your classmate Naruto's the village hero but look at you!

What are you doing with yourself?!

Fine! I'll go train then!

[door slams]

Why'd she have to bring up Naruto?

It's way too early for that!

[Worker] It's all thanks to our hero, Naruto!

You got that right! We're all alive because of him!

So let's put this village back together for him!

[in unison] Yeah!

What a miserable morning.

[whine]

What, you don't think so, Akamaru?

[whine]

Come on, don't tell me that you're on "Mr. Hero's" side!

[barks]

Damn! It's the same everywhere I go!

I mean, sure, he saved the village, but.

[cheering]

Psh.

[whine]

When we were kids, he was the worst in our class!

[Shino] Are you talking about Naruto?

Ah!

Oh! Shino!

Naruto is the village hero right now.

But back then he was the class loser!

And who lost to the "loser" during the Chunin Exam? You did.

Hey!

Too late!

[fart]

Huh?

Hauugghh!!

If he just hadn't farted in my face then I would've won!

There are no "ifs" in battle.

That's because you can't turn back time.

Tch! Great, there he goes again with his annoying logic.

[bark]

Also.

Naruto has surpassed us considerably now.

I'm gonna catch up to him without a doubt! You just watch me!

That's understandable. However--

There's no way I'd let Naruto leave me behind!

I refuse to be left in the dust! I won't!

[bark!]

See ya!

[Kiba] Wolf Fang Over Fang!

Augh!

[whine]

Damn it! It didn't work.

[barks]

Yeah yeah, I know, you don't have to tell me.

I have to find some way to power up.

[Kakashi] Oh! Training, huh?

Huh?

Good! I'm proud of you.

Mmm.

Hm. What's wrong, Kiba? You don't seem like your usual self.

It's just, I've gotta find a way to become stronger.

Stronger than Naruto.

Than Naruto?

We started out together. We were both just kids.

I can't let him get any further ahead of me!

Kiba...

Wait, I know! Kakashi Sensei! Please, you have to train me!

Huh?!

Kurenai Sensei's pregnant and Guy Sensei's out of the village for a while!

You're the only one I can rely on now, Kakashi Sensei!

[barks]

Hmmm.

Come on, please!

You know Naruto's strength better than anyone, isn't that right?

When you say it like that, I guess I have no choice.

Excellent!

All right, I'll help you!

Ninja Art: Summoning!

Earth Style, Fanged Pursuit Jutsu!

What?!

Aaahh!

[barking]

I really would love to stay and help you out, Kiba, but I'm simply far too busy right now.

[snarling]

I'll leave it to these ninja hounds to spar with you!

That's not cool, Kakashi Sensei!

[barks]

This isn't real training!

Ah!

HUAAAGH!

[Pakkun] You want to be stronger than Naruto? And this is the sorry state you're starting from?

Hey, watch it! I was just careless!

Bring it on! I'm gonna make you eat your words!

[Akamaru] [barks]

I'm only doing this because Kakashi asked me to.

But we don't have any time to waste either.

Don't mess around.

Oh, don't you worry. Kakashi Sensei may have run off, but I'll get him back here in no time!

Howl all you want, but only after you steal this scroll off my back.

Sounds like fun. Too bad it won't last long!

[bark]

Ninja Art: Beast Mimicry! Man Beast Clone!

All-Fours Jutsu!

You just rush in without even coordinating your attack, huh?

Crane Wing Formation!

D'egh! Agh!

Since you want to be stronger, we needed to see what you had to start with.

And this is it, huh?

Damn you all!

I'll beat you mutts, no matter what it takes!

Stop yapping!

And show us, already!

[barks]

Right! Then we'll do this at full strength!

[growl]

Ninja Art: Beast Mimicry! Man Beast Clone!

Man Beast Secret Taijutsu Technique!

Fang Over Fang!

[Pakkun] Scatter!

You can't escape!

Circular Formation!

Ninja Hound Art! Dust Dance!

You can stop us from seeing you, but you can't hide from our sense of smell!

[barks]

There!

[woozy] Aunn...

[Pakkun] He falls for such transparent tricks!

Damn it!

At this rate, this fool's never going to be able to surpass Naruto.

There's just no hope for him whatsoever.

He loses his cool before the fight even starts,

he doesn't bother trying to assess his enemy's strength at all,

and then he just charges in without thinking, only to self-destruct!

Eh?

Hey! Where are you going?

Forget this! I quit! I can't fight seriously against dogs!

You're running away?!

Tch! I asked Kakashi Sensei to train me, not all you guys!

Instead--

You told us yourself that you would end this quickly.

He got that part right. It sure ended fast.

'Cause he lost!

[all laugh]

Rrrggh!

Quiet! This is just pointless!

[whine]

No! Getting hurt in training like this just isn't worth it!

So you are running away.

Go on, if you don't want our help!

Don't worry! I will!

Come on, Akamaru, let's go train by ourselves.

[whine]

Rgh, I'm not running away!

That training was just useless, that's all!

[barks]

Dahh!

Hey, Akamaru! What are you doing?!

[barks]

Akamaru, stop!

Where are you taking me, Akamaru?!

Come on, stop! Just stop, allright?!

Wauugh!

Agh!

Man, that hurts.

Hey, Isn't this...

[barks]

What? Naruto? He kept trying, but he could never beat me.

[growl]

Wait, Akamaru! What are you doing now?!

I know this already! My name was always the one on the top of the list!

[gasp]

But... why's his name up there?!

Oh... Kiba!

Hinata, what are you doing here?

Since our Academy days, I come here to train sometimes.

Naruto used to run here all the time.

Naruto did?

Yes.

Way back then, he was sure, that he could break your record if he just tried hard enough.

[Naruto] Haaaaaa!

Damn it! Too slow! Why can't I do this?!

Haaaaa!

Uh, Naruto?

Haaaaaa!

Too slow! Damn it! Okay, again!

Daah! So close!

Haaaa!

Damn!

Damn it!

Damn it!

[panting]

Auuughhh!

[Naruto] Haaaaa!

[panting]

Huh??

I did it!

New record! Yeah!

[Hinata] Every single day, Naruto ran until he beat the record.

Isn't that just like him?

Akamaru, did you know about that?

[bark]

Damn it! That idiot is so stubborn!

Huh?

I mean, why doesn't that loser ever just give up?

Damn it, that kid. He's such a fool!

He's so stubborn!

That fool! That stupid fool! [chuckle]

[bark]

[Kiba] Sorry to make you wait.

Huh?

[Pakkun] I thought you quit and ran away.

No, the only thing that I'm going to quit is giving up.

Akamaru!

[howl]

Hm?

Hm. Starting off by marking the field...

I'm not going to charge into rocks and self-destruct anymore.

This is a whole new battle.

Well.

It seems you've had a change of heart, so let's put it to the test, shall we?

I'm supposed to take that scroll that you have on your back, right?

This time around, I'll make you take back your words, too!

[growl]

Akamaru! Let's go!

[howl]

Human Mimicry Ninja Art: Man Beast Clone!

Rrrr!

[snarling]

Fang Over Fang!

[Pakkun] Incoming!

Hound Barricade Formation!

Scatter!

Akamaru! Dodge!

Akamaru!

[Pakkun] Assemble, now!

[Kiba] Are you okay, Akamaru?!

[whine]

Rrgh!

At least you were able to avert a head-on collision.

So tell me. You want to quit again?

I told you.

I've only quit giving up!

So you quit?

Yeah, I quit.

Ooooo-kay.

Uh- No! That's not what I meant!

All I'm quitting is giving up.

I'm not going to quit training with you guys!

So you're not quitting?

No, of course not!

I...

I want to be... like him.

Like who?

Rrrgh!

Ah!

Heh heh. Y'know what I'm gonna do?

I'm gonna become a fool!

That works out well, since you already look like one.

No! That's--

You're a fool, right?

No! Well, yes. It's a different kind of fool!

A fool is still a fool.

Auggh! No, you don't get it!

What are you trying to tell us?!

Ahhh!

Agh! Just forget it! Ahh!

Heh! Heh heh heh!

All right, that's it.

You're all gonna get it now.

What do you mean?!

Listen, don't go blaming us for the fact that you're a fool!

Shut up!

Inuzuka Style! Man-Beast Transformation Combo!

[snarling growl]

Go!

Let's go! Wolf Fang Over Fang!

Oh boy that sure is one intense attack!

He's finally starting to think! This attack will prevent friendly fire.

[Pakkun] But I don't think it'll handle tight turns very well!

Dust Dance guys!

Ugh! Not that again...

[growl]

It's all right, Akamaru! I still know the terrain because of Dynamic Marking!

Ninja Hound Art! Hound Hair Clones!

[Kiba] We're going in!

[Akamaru] [bark]

Egh!

Ha ha ha ha ha ha! You can't tell where the real one is now!

Damn it!

[chuckle]

[barks]

Hold on! He said "you can't tell where", not "you can't tell which"!

What that means is...

The real one's somewhere else!

[barks]

Calm down, Akamaru! It's all right! Just stay calm!

It's useless. You should just quit.

Shut up! I said I'm not going to quit anymore!

[bark]

Ah!

Oh, yeah, Right. I gotta stay calm, too. Sorry.

If we can just keep it together, Akamaru and I can sniff out even the faintest of scents.

We won't stop till we find him!

[bark]

Right there!

Well, You got me Kiba. good job.

And I take back what I said about you.

Well, well.

He got you, did he, Pakkun?

Yeah...

Heh heh heh heh!

Kiba!

You did well!

Eh?

Heh heh!

Thank you, Kakashi Sensei!

[bark]

No need to thank me!

I didn't do anything. I mean, I wasn't even here!

We're never gonna quit! Never!

And if we don't, then one day,

Oh!

Hm?

What is it, Guruko?

Earlier, Kiba said,

I'm gonna become a fool!

Rrrh...

I wonder if he meant that he wanted to be more like Naruto.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

No, he'd never say that!

After all, even Kiba has his pride.

[Yamato] We'll enter the Land of Lightning's territory

after replenishing our supplies on this isolated island.

[Aoba] Our goal's in sight.

[Yamato] We can't be complacent. The enemy will seek any chance to attack.

[Guy] But since we're this close, we can call for backup from the Allied Shinobi Forces, right?

[Yamato] Those Allied Forces could be disguised enemies!

[Naruto] Next time on Naruto Shippuden: Kakashi, My Eternal Rival!
