[baby crying]

[heavy breathing]

[gasp]... He's really here.

[baby crying]

[joyful laugh] Today I am a father!

Yes, you've got a healthy baby boy, Minato.

Naruto!

Hands off, you! Mother first, father, second.

Okay...

[gasp]

So Naruto...

We finally meet.

Now, you'll have more time later.

There, there my child!

Kushina... are you feeling alright now?

I'm okay.

Thank you.

Minato.

Alright! Now I realize what you've just been through...

...but we need to reseal the Nine Tails!

(Biwako & Taji) [screams]

[gasp]

Lady Biwako! Taji!

Fourth Hokage Minato... Step away from the Jinchuriki.

[gasp]

Or else this child will die in it's first minute.

[thinking] How the hell did he get past the barrier?

[thinking] Who... is he?

[groaning in pain]

Kushina!

No... The Nine Tails seal isn't...

Get away from the Jinchuriki...

Don't you care what happens to the brat?

Wait! Please! Just stay calm!

Speak for yourself. I am as calm as can be, Minato.

Naruto!!!

[baby cries]

[baby cries]

Leave it to the Yellow Flash of the Leaf...

...but what about the next one..?

[gasp]

Minato! Naruto!

[crying]

Thank goodness Naruto wasn't injured...

[gasp]

[thinking] He forced me to use the Flying Raijin Jutsu.

His target was Kushina... and he succeeded in separating us.

Gotta hurry...

[exhausted breaths]

Alright, what do you want!?

I'm going to extract the Nine Tails from you, and crush the Leaf.

No... you can't.

Minato's Teleportation Jutsu allows him to move instantly between locations that are marked with Jutsu Formulas.

Those markings are incorporated into the Sealing Formula.

That way, Minato can protect you at all times. But he's far away now...

Nine Tails' Seal has weakened due to childbirth.

Do you have any idea how long I've waited for this moment?!

You'll be safe here.

Naruto, please be patient, okay?

I have to go and rescue your mother right now.

[Thinking] It's you.....

[snarling]

[roaring]

Now then, come on out...

Nine Tails!!!

[roaring]

[roaring]

[roaring]

Good. Now we'll head to the Hidden Leaf Village.

More hate...

You Uzumaki are just amazing.

You don't die right away when the Tailed Best is extracted...

[growling]

You were the Nine Tails' Jinchuriki...

[growling]

So I'll let you die by his hand.

[gasp]

[roaring]

You really are quick as a flash...

...but you're too late.

Minato...

Naruto.... is he... alright then??

Yes. He's fine.

He's in a safe place for now.

[sigh]... good.

Minato, that masked man is with the Nine Tails.

(Kushina) They're headed to the Village. Stop them.

He flew away. Hm. That's fine.

Let's get to the Hidden Leaf Village.

But... why?

Nevermind. Just... be with Naruto.

[quiet sob]

Naruto...

Thank you... Minato.

And good luck.

I'll be right back.

Look! Another shooting star!

Did you remember to make a wish this time, buddy?

Oh, I forgot.

[meow]

Are you serious? What do you mean you're going out?!

The guys are getting together! I'm allowed to go out sometimes, you know!

"Sometimes?!" It's been every night lately!

(Husband) I'll come home early, alright?

(Shop Owner) Thanks for coming!

(Customer) Sure! I'll be back!

I know. Come on. Let's go home.

[sigh] Look, why don't we just do rock-paper-scissors again?

Oh come on! There must be something more exciting we can do!

(Guy) ...and you call yourself my rival!?

We have to get an early start tomorrow. So let's just take a pass on tonight.

A mission is no excuse!

I have all this pent-up energy inside me!

So there's no better time than right now for some really rigorous training!

Honest to goodness discipline and hard work will lead us to success in future missions!

Are you even listening to me!?

Forget that for now...

Do you sense something strange? As if there was suddenly a dark chill in the air..?

The only thing that's chilly is your attitude! You must be much more hot-blooded!!

I feel something ominous...

[baby cries]

There there, it's okay.

[thinking] What a strange feeling...

Of all the times for mom and dad to be out...

[crying] Don't cry, Sasuke.

No matter what happens, your big brother will protect you. I promise you that.

Hm?

It can't be...

Summoning Jutsu!

[panting] Huh? Is that..?

[growling]

No! No way!

[huge roar]

(Villager) The Nine Tails!

[frightened cries]

Go Nine Tails!

[growling]

[roaring]

[roaring]

[fearful cries]

Lord Third! It's the Nine Tails!

The Nine Tails is inside the Village!

Yes, I know that. I'll go restrain him.

You and the others go protect all the people of the Village.

Yes sir!

[Thinking] Was Kushina's seal broken?

We failed even with all the safeguards we put in place?

Biwako...

Damn you, Nine Tails!

It's time to realease all my pent up energy!

We don't know what we're up against!

Come on!! I'll be your opponent!

Wait!

Huh?

Gather immediately in the guardroom!

Why?

The Third Hokage ordered it!

What? Lord Hiruzen did?

Well, you heard him. Let's go, Guy.

[grunting]

Now is our chance!

All of you, go! Evacuate the Village!

Ohhh noo!!

Are we ready!?

Yeah!

Over here, Nine Tails!

[angry growl]

Right here!

Your battle's here!

...with me!

[angry roaring]

Do not falter!

Even if we can't defeat the Nine Tails, we must allow villagers to escape!

Don't take action on your own!

Assemble around Lord Hiruzen.

Carry out your orders!

As Hokage, I must protect the Village- my family...

This is what I have to do right now.

[Thinking] I won't let you destroy my home.

[growling]

So you noticed me, huh?

[roar]

I won't let you do this!

[thinking] With this much power, I've got to carefully chose where to redirect his attacks.

The Jutsu deflected Nine Tails' attack. That's a Transpiration Barrier!

It's Minato.

Alright! Let's move in too!

I've got to alert Lord Third right away about what's going on.

I'm your opponent! And you're done for!

He got away... So fast...

Next time I'll take him a lot quicker... as soon as we touch.

[grunt]

My attack passed right through him...

...but a moment later, he made himself solid and tried to pull me inside him.

What was that Jutsu?

[gasp]

Ha. You shall not escape.

[thinking] He uses the Transportation Technique too?

That's how he was able to grab Kushina and move so quickly!

He defeated the Anbu Black Ops assigned to Lord Third...

...got past a highest-level classified barrier...

...and knew Nine Tails' seal would weaken during childbirth...

Even more than that, he undid the Nine Tails' Seal and tamed him...

He slipped in and out of the Village barriers without triggering any alarms...

..As far as I know, there's only one shinobi who can do all that...

Are you... Madara Uchiha?

No... That would be impossible. He is dead, after all.

Hmm. I wonder about that.

In the end it doesn't matter who you are...

...but why attack the Hidden Leaf?

What would you like to hear? I could say I did it on a whim, or that I planned it.

...or that it's for war... or that it's for peace.

[gasp]

[thinking] Either way, he's not ordinary. He can control Nine Tails.

His Transportation Technique surpasses both Lord Second's and mine.

And he's got some dangerous ideology.

If I don't settle this now, we'll have even bigger problems than the Nine Tails...

If I transport myself to the Village, he'll come to the battlefield with me...

It'll be chaos...

If he's anything like Madara, he can't keep the Nine Tails under the Summoning Jutsu for long.

I have to entrust the Village to Lord Third...

...and just take this guy down right here, right now.

Now that I've freed the Nine Tails, there is no hope for any of you!

[grunt]

My physical attacks have no effect on him.

But he makes himself solid when he attacks me....

I have to aim for a mutual strike, precisely timed...

But he knows that he's vulnerable when he attacks...

And considering the time remaining on the Nine Tails' Summoning Jutsu...

...he won't want a lengthy battle, either.

Whoever attacks an instant quicker than the other... will win this match.

I win.

Damn it! He transported himself to his Kunai!

Flying Raijin, Level 2!

[exhausted breaths]

You got me! You really are a slippery one!

I never should have let my guard down around you!

[gasping]

[Madara thinking] Flying Raijin Jutsu!? Of course! He must have marked me somewhere!

A Contract Seal?

Trying to separate Nine Tails from me?!

The Nine Tails is no longer yours!

[angry roar]

(Minato) Naruto... our newborn son...

I wanna stay with you longer!

(Minato) Our family is shinobi. We sacrifice our lives to protect what we believe in!

(Kushina) Don''t forget us, Naruto. Remember we'll always love you.

(Kushina) Next time on Naruto Shippuden: Thank you.

(Minato) I'm going to seal the Nine Tails inside Naruto!
