So..if that guy up there is the real Madara...

That means the guy who we thought was Madara... isn't actually him?

Yes, so it seems.

You used to utilize the Akatsuki.

So can't you speculate on what the identity of that masked man might be, Tsuchikage?

There's no one I can think of right now.

But honestly, it doesn't really matter who he is.

Whatever his name, we still need to stop him!

Their headbands say shinobi, but I see them wearing clothing from each of the five great nations.

Is this some new united army?

Well, it does appear that we're at war.

So that's what he's up to.

But I wonder what exactly he's got in mind now.

It doesn't look as if things are going the way he originally planned them.

Or else why would he revive me in this strange way.

Who is the caster of the Reanimation Jutsu?

I have no idea.

My name is Kabuto.

I'm his collaborator.

Speaking to me through a Reanimation Link? What a sneaky one you are.

Your reanimation is quite special.

You're now even greater than during your glory days.

Is that so?

You know what I was like during my glory days, do you?

No. That's one of the reasons I brought you here now.

To show me your legendary Uchiha power.

Guess we can't take him that easily.

Very well then.

[nervous swallow]

Here he comes guys!

Whatever happens, don't look directly into his eyes!

[battle cries]

[grunting]

You can't use Particle Style now, not with half your normal chakra.

Sensory Ninja! Make sure you watch Lord Mu!

[grunt]

Wait.

Gaara, you and the Tsuchikage have to recover first.

Naruto, use that mode instead of your shadow clones.

The truth is I can't right now. I used up my chakra in the earlier fight.

[worried reaction]

[painful cry]

[painful grunt]

[scared reaction]

[painful yell]

[painful reactions]

[choking sound]

You want to dance with me as well?

Do not underestimate me!

[frustrated reaction]

Fire Style! Majestic Destroyer Flame!

His Jutsu is enormous!

Water Style! Wall of Water!

Here he comes!

[shocked gasp]

[yelp]

Hm?

You will go no further!

Massive Rasengan!

Earth Style! Mobile Core!

[battle cry]

[struggling sounds]

[shocked gasp]

[painful yell]

[painful grunt]

That's a Susano'o!

He's already activated the Mangekyo Sharingan?!

Naruto, how much longer?

Just hold on a second, I'm almost done.

[yelling in pain]

[yelling in pain]

[scoffing]

[shocked breath]

Sorry about that.

Okay! I'm all ready now!

I'm gonna need everyone to get back!

Go, Kazekage!

Earth Style! Lightened Boulder Jutsu!

I've made all the sand around here lighter as well.

With sand this light, there's no limit to what I could do.

Naruto!

Alright! Here I go!

If it's like Sasuke's, external attacks are ineffective. So I should use the sand at Madara's feet!

[surprised reaction]

Go!

Naruto!

Rasen Shuriken!

Why did that man in the mask claim to be Madara specifically?

Why him?

Well, it is as if a presence like Madara's does already exist in this realm.

So even if one is full of deceit, if you can convince the world then it will quake in fear.

Just the name itself is power.

It made us throw caution to the wind.

It drew our attention and then the lie fooled all of us into embarking on a war!

We've been had. We were trapped, hook, line and sinker.

Too much energy.

He...he absorbed that Jutsu!

But-But that's...

How come that Madara guy posseses Rinnegan eyes?

It appears that my guess was correct.

The natural progression following the Sharingan is the Rinnegan.

I managed to awaken the Rinnegan just a little prior to my death.

You said Kabuto, right?

What exactly did you do to this body?

Like I mentioned to you before...

I made you even better than at the peak of your power.

You bastard.

You know the secrets within my flesh!

You aren't even able to read the Uchiha Stone Tablet but you still managed to decipher it.

I'm just testing out a hypothesis suggested by many years of experiments that Lord Orochimaru and I conducted.

And now, you are proving that hypothesis to be true after all.

You are able to achieve a piece of that God's power. The power of Sage of Sixth Paths.

Thanks to the might that I built into you.

Do not misunderstand it. This is not power of your creation!

[soft chuckle]

Man...

It's so unreal.

What...What the hell is that?

[nervous reaction]

Whoa...This is way out of our league.

Is this the power of a God?

[surprised reactions] Is this ninjutsu?

We can't outrun it!

[scared reactions]

It is still far too early to consider giving up!

Never quit without even trying!

Always do something. However small an effect it may have.

Lord Tsuchikage!

Everyone! Get as far away from here as you can!

[panicked reactions] Run!

You're taking us out, too?

Yes, of course I am!

That was the original point of the Reanimation Jutsu, to take the others out with you.

The two of us will be restored presently.

A shinobi that can fly?

Is that really the little Fence Sitter Brat from the Hidden Stone?

What's Grampa Tsuchikage gonna do up there anyway?

He's gonna make that meteorite lighter and stop it!

[struggling efforts]

Earth Style! Super Lightened Boulder Jutsu!

[struggling efforts]

[powerful yell]

Just a little... Need just a little bit more to stop it!

[struggling yell]

Who would've guessed that Fence Sitter lad...He's become quite a capable shinobi.

Yes!

The old man did it!

[sighs and groans of relief]

[relieved sigh]

But now...Just what are you going to do about the second one, Ohnoki?

[shocked gasp]

[painful yell]

What?!

[startled grunt]

What happened out there?!

From our Relay Intel Unit...

A giant boulder big enough to block out the sky's been dropped on our Fourth Company's battlefield.

It's the source of this tremor!

Any further reports from the Fourth Company since the attack?!

The sheer scale of it... To kill so many enemies all at once.

[overwhelmed reaction]

There's no mistake...It's Madara's Jutsu or close to it. Lady Tsunade, at this rate...

That's it! I'll go!

What...What in the world happened?!

[painful grunts]

[struggling efforts]

Bendy guy! Why'd you bother saving a clone like me?

I feel bad about the others...But whether you're a clone or not you're still sorely needed here.

...if we hope to win.

[upset reaction]

[startled gasp]

What about Grampa Tsuchikage?!

Grampa Tsuchikage!

It's okay, don't worry.

He is still alive.

However...He's seriously injured.

So this is the power of the Sage of Six Paths, huh?

Magnificent.

[satisfied hum]

This landscape brings back so many memories.

You said that your name was Kabuto... How much do you really know about me?

Tell me the truth.

This is only a guess, but...

Back when you battled the first Hokage Hashirama at Final Valley, you didn't actually die on that day.

Instead, in that skirmish...

You may have lost to the First Hokage...But you gained a portion of Hashirama's power for yourself in return.

Am I mistaken?

Ah, then that's why...

I'm able to see what's coming so well.

Then you are also aware of our plan?

Not really; not in detail... But please remember that I am your ally.

However, when it comes to whether that fake Madara intends to carry out your plan exactly...I don't quite know.

Oh, by the way...Seems there are still some survivors here and there.

The Tsuchikage and Kazekage are especially persistent. What should we do?

Before anything else, there is something I want to check first.

Summoning Jutsu!

[struggling in pain]

My stomach! It feels...so hot!

This chakra that summons me...Is it Madara's?!

It appears that the Nine Tails still remains uncaptured.

In fact, that's the entire purpose of this war.

The Nine Tails remains sealed inside a Jinchuriki. For right now.

Just look, he's right over there.

That boy is the Nine Tails' Jinchuriki. His name is Naruto Uzumaki.

Uzumaki...?

He's from Mito's Clan, eh?

He attacked me earlier. Nothing but a little brat!

Yes, but he's actually quite the shinobi.

We will need to capture him, although that one right in front of us is only a clone.

Shall we go and capture the original one now?

Not yet. There's still a jutsu I'd like to try out.

And I think that it will make a prettier picture if I do it where there are still people around.

Huh?!

It's them! They're toward four o'clock!

Wood Style! Deep Forest Emergence!

He's able to use Wood Style?!

I guess this is it for us, then.

[nervous reaction]

Damn it! I don't have much chakra left at all!

I'm at my limit! I'm gonna disappear at any moment here!

What am I gonna do?!

Naruto, that's enough. I'll take over the battle from here on.

I have a chance to reclaim myself now!

Next time on Naruto Shippuden: "The Five Kage Assemble."

I'll help you reclaim yourself.
