Stand...

We're leaving.

What about your mission, Kakashi? Weren't you

supposed to search this location.

It's suspended because of you.

Don't let me stop you.

You just tried to kill me, so stop joking around!

I'm not joking around at all!

Just move!

I hear Foundation agents are trained to discard

all their emotions. Is that true of you, too?

Not just our emotions.

Shinobi of the Foundation have no names, past, or

future, either. We only have our missions.

Well, you failed your mission.

Don't move from that spot!

Huh?

[screaming]

Snakes?!

What are they?!

And what's that?!

They're not snakes, they're...

Orochimaru's experiments!

[gasp]

[grunts]

What the?!

Kinoe!

Kinoe!

[attacking yell]

Dead...

Everyone's dead...

I'm going to die, too. In here, like this...

I don't want to...

You alive?

You all right, Kinoe?!

[groaning]

Are you okay?

I think so... But why?

Why what?

Why did you save me?

I couldn't just let you die.

But if you did, I would have deserved it.

Did- Did you want to die?

No, I didn't.

I... definitely didn't want that to happen.

Then be grateful that you're still alive.

That I'm alive?

[gasp]

The fluid from the snake...

This is...

Don't inhale it; it's poisonous! Run!

Right!

Kakashi!

[grunt]

[grunting]

I didn't find Orochimaru.

Nor did I encounter a strange clan...

Nor anyone from the Foundation.

All I can really do for now is live by the rules.

But that's okay.

Beause now I know that I'm capable

of protecting someone.

Procure a replacement for this right eye of mine.

Kinoe, where's Kakashi?

Did you do it?

Yes.

So, you didn't need me...

Where's his body?

I made it appear like he was killed by one of

Orochimaru's traps.

Lord Hokage's ANBU will find him.

Good. Let's return before they get wind of us.

[groaning]

Kinoe?

"To Kakashi..."

"I've become confused about this mission, where I'm

supposed to kill a friend."

"So I'm going to abandon it, and I'll report to Lord

Danzo that I failed."

"Please... take care."

Kinoe...

Kakashi, sir, your wounds!

I must report in first!

What's wrong?

Lord Third, it's regarding the Foundation.

The Wood Style user just targeted me, likely on Lord

Danzo's orders.

Hmm...

But he defied Danzo and abandoned his mission midway

through, even going so far as to save my life.

He should've returned to the village.

Who knows what's happened to him by now...

What?! What's the meaning of this?!

Kinoe?!

I beg your pardon. I failed my mission.

If Kakashi was able to defeat you, then there is no

one to blame for that failure but me.

It appears that I have underestimated

Kakashi's strength.

But what is much harder to forgive is you abandoning

your mission and making a poor

attempt at faking his death!

And I sent two men to do the job.

What were you hoping to accomplish?!

Answer me! Tell me why you've done this!

Please, sir, go to Lord Danzo and save Kinoe.

[sigh]

Lord Third!

It was agreed upon that I would not interfere with the

Foundation. But...

That is not possible in this case.

So, Yugao...

Sir!

Go and take this missive to Foundation headquarters.

It's an order from the Hokage.

It summons Danzo here to speak with me immediately.

Right!

I'm counting on you, Yugao.

Rest assured, my lord.

Kakashi...

Sir!

Go to the infirmary and tend to your injuries.

Yes, sir.

Huh?

Sir?

I'm coming, too.

Kakashi is a shinobi of the Hidden Leaf. He's a comrade

from the Village. Isn't it wrong to kill a friend?

To be frank, you should only consider those in the

Foundation to be your true friends.

Isn't the Foundation the Leaf's friend?

The Foundation's a unique organization that supports

the tree of the Leaf from deep underground.

Just as a tree is divided into what is above and below

ground, the Foundation has its own existence.

Kinoto, what is a Foundation shinobi?

Our shinobi have no names.

We've no emotion. We've no past. No future.

We have only our missions.

I'm the leader of the Foundation!

The missions I give you are absolute!

No past?

No future?

No emotion?

No name?

Tenzo! Welcome home!

Are you listening, Kinoe?!

No! Don't call me that! My name is not Kinoe!

What?! What do you mean?!

You are Kinoe of the Foundation!

What other name could you have besides that one?!

I am a shinobi of the Leaf!

A shinobi not just of the Foundation but the whole

Leaf and its branches!

They're all my comrades!

Damn you...

What has made you turn on us like this?!

[gasp]

Take him away to the treatment room.

Bind him with a Curse Mark.

Yes, sir!

Lord Third has sent this communiqué to Lord Danzo,

summoning him to an audience.

Notify Lord Danzo that he is to appear immediately.

Lord Danzo isn't here.

What did you say?

We will let him know just as soon as he returns.

Where is he now?

We have no idea.

We aren't privy to the details of Lord

Danzo's schedule.

Go back and report this to Lord Third.

What about you, sir?

I'll stay here and wait for him. Go.

Right.

[gasp]

Stop!

This is Foundation jurisdiction!

[gasp]

[gasp]

Where is Kinoe?!

Damn that Kinoe! What ideas has Kakashi fed him?

Lord Danzo, we're ready.

Release!

Let's get out of here!

Kakashi?!

Agh! Kinoe!

Wood Style!

Hey! Wait!

Found him! Over there!

[gasp]

Wind Style!

Vacuum Bullets!

[gasp]

Wood Style: Domed Wall!

[groan]

How good of you to come over from your side

to see us here, Kakashi.

You entered Foundation jurisdiction without

authorization and tried to take one of our own.

Don't think you'll get off so easily.

Lord Danzo, Kakashi-

Just shut up!

You won't be getting away with this either.

Neither shall you...

Hm?

[gasp] Who is that?

Hiruzen...

I am well aware that you harbor a grudge

against Kakashi.

But still, that does not give you the justification

to target one of the Leaf's finest shinobi.

What are you talking about, Hiruzen?

I couldn't care less about Kakashi. But he chose to

trespass into Foundation territory.

And that is quite serious.

He chose?

You're wrong. In actuality, I dispatched him here with a

summons from me.

Then, in order to complete his assignment, he went

looking for you to deliver that message.

All on my orders.

It seems there was a miscommunication.

This is the first I've heard of that.

Well, then that settles things with Kakashi.

However, it's regarding this next issue

that I sent for you.

It has to do with another exceptional

shinobi of this village.

You're aware that a Wood Style user has long been

sought in the Hidden Leaf Village.

There was even a period when we conducted questionable

tests to acquire that power.

I understand there is now such a Wood Style user, so

why keep him hidden in the Foundation?!

I was the one who found him, and I protected and raised

him, too. I wasn't hiding him from anyone.

I just didn't feel there was any need to report it to you.

Hear me, Danzo...

The Jinchuriki child has now entered his fourth year.

Wood Style Sealing Jutsu is becoming more and more

crucial to the village.

Because of that...

I ask you to entrust this Wood Style user to me.

To the ANBU under my direct control.

I can't...

Please do this, Danzo.

I know he is valuable to you. But for the sake

of the Hidden Leaf, transfer him to me.

Should you choose to do so, everything will

be settled amicably.

Members of the Foundation bear a Curse Mark so they

don't reveal secret intel.

I will not remove it from him.

That is fine.

Very well, then.

He is in my care now.

So henceforth, you will be an ANBU under

my direct orders.

Uh, sir?

Thank you, for everything.

Um, hello? My name's Kinoe.

I just transferred here from the Foundation.

Oh, hey there, Tenzo!

Tenzo?

Kinoe's your Foundation codename.

In the ANBU, you should go by Tenzo.

But that name is kinda...

Wasn't there even a time when you called

yourself Tenzo?

All right, everyone! This is Tenzo. He's the new guy!

And I can vouch for his skill.

[chatter]

So, I'm Tenzo now, huh?

Tenzo, you'll be on my team, Team Ro!

I'm counting on you.

[chuckle]

Okay. Yes, sir.

As usual, your Lightning Blade is as

brilliant as ever, sir.

There's no such thing as brilliant or inferior in

assassination. Killing is killing, that's all.

By the way, what ever happened with the

replacement? Our team is still short a member.

There isn't really a rush.

We're not in the middle of a war now...

Next time on Naruto Shippuden: "An Uchiha ANBU."

Someone'll show up soon enough.
