Original subtitles

Younger brother Ashura has reincarnated as you.

These eyes of mine can clearly see Ashura's chakra.

I can see it clinging all about you.

Could that be...?

And considering your obvious lack of surprise about it...

...perhaps you have actually sensed little brother Ashura's presence inside you already.

Hm.

As I had surmised... So then you also ought to know already.

...who the reincarnate of elder brother Indra must be...

Hm.

It's Sasuke.

Sasuke did that?

That's... unbelievable.

[whimpering]

And that's why-

I want you guys to let me handle Sasuke.

You want to fight Sasuke alone?! Do you honestly think we would all go along

with something like that?!

Like Tenten says, Naruto, we can't always let you do what you want all by yourself.

The reason is because this is a big problem for the whole village.

Look, I'm not being selfish.

I know you swore you'd go into full details when we got back, but...

I never thought you would say this!

All of us here have made up our minds to eliminate Sasuke! You can't do this alone!

Listen, Naruto... I hope you're not just saying you're going to take down Sasuke...

...when you're actually planning to protect him.

I'm not. Trust me, I have no intention of protecting Sasuke.

Sasuke must have been greatly weakened...

...by fighting at the Five Kage Summit against Danzo.

Why not take him down right then?

Madara Uchiha was there! So it wouldn't have gone that easily if we tried.

And besides--

That's no excuse...!

You shouldn't have let him get away like that!

C'mon, Naruto! You're strong, aren't you? You're the village hero that took down Pain, remember?

Hero...?

Yeah! You could've taken Sasuke down like you did with Pain!

No, that isn't true.

Why?

You can't beat Sasuke...

...just by being strong. 'Cause now I know...

Inside of him is...

I'm right, aren't I?

"The Sage of the Six Paths"

The elder brother Indra has been reincarnated in you.

And these eyes of mine can clearly see...

... Indra's chakra clinging all about you.

And considering your obvious lack of surprise about it...

...perhaps you have actually sensed elder brother Indra's presence inside you already?

As I had surmised... so then you also ought to know already...

...who the reincarnate of younger brother Ashura must be...

Naruto.

Isn't that right?

Indeed. So you were aware.

You make it sound like there's been other... what is it? 'Reincarnates'

before Sasuke and me?

So what happened to them? Who were they?

The reincarnates just before you two were Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha.

Hashirama was Ashura. Madara was Indra. You know how they ended up, don't you?

Though Madara created a certain problem before he finished being a reincarnate.

He was so obsessed with power... that he stole some of Hashirama's.

Which, in short,... caused the merging of a part of Ashura's chakra... with

Indra's chakra...

And in turn resulted in the derivation of my own chakra's power.

That's right... the awakening of the Rinnegan.

I always thought that such a fellow would appear... among either Indra or his reincarnates.

Which is why I left behind that stone tablet, with guidance on reforming one's thinking.

Though it seems no one understood its meaning.

So then, Super Gramps Sage. Basically, it's like you've been watching your

kids' sibling rivalry this entire time?

Yes. I suppose so...

I see.

Ninshu, my Ninja Creed, preached that chakra is power that links people.

And I continue to truly believe that chakra should not be something that is

used to amplify any single person's strength.

Even after my mother, Kaguya, put an end to chaotic times, she ruled

through her power alone.

However, my mother's power bred arrogance within her. And mankind began to dread

the existence of that power.

That's why mother, who'd been called the Rabbit Goddess, at some indefinite

point started being feared as a demon.

If power is concentrated within only one person, it will run wild, and that

person will become possessed by it.

The current Madara is a perfect example. He's become just like my mother.

Since he's no longer Indra's reincarnate, he's obtained Ten Tails' power and is

getting close to me.

And he's trying to obtain even my mother Kaguya's power.

The Infinite Tsukuyomi doesn't just cast Genjutsu over you.

It traps you in Genjutsu dreams, so the caster can use your individual power

while keeping you alive.

You're attached to the roots of the Divine Tree and turned into living slaves.

That's what the Infinite Tsukuyomi is.

Mother possessed the power of Sharingan as well as Byakugan.

She used her Visual Prowess to cast that jutsu upon the populace. It was ghastly.

If all chakra were to be reunited into one again, a new Chakra Fruit would take shape.

That must be prevented at all costs...

...or this world will end.

Now... I would like you to stop Madara.

Your slightly dumb personality unlike the other reincarnates...

I feel the possibility exists there, in your maverick nature.

So you still believe in us, even though the world you've watched over

for all this time...

... even after you've died, is messed up. So thank you.

Don't thank me for this. I don't have any right to your praise.

If the world as it is today desires Indra's, or rather my mother's, way

of doing things... And if that's the natural flow...

Then I'm the one who's selfishly trying to go against it and stop it.

Even simply in terms of how the Tailed Beasts are being used, not for maintaining

peace and balance, but only as weapons...

Perhaps my way of approaching things is just naive.

Nope!

You're not wrong, Super Gramps Sage!

That's right, old man!

Huh?!

Huh?!

You're Gaara's Shukaku! Why are you inside me?

That guy Obito...

Eight-O!

He forcibly extracted a piece of each of our chakra from Madara.

He knew exactly which Tailed Beasts' power you lacked. He's somethin', that guy.

Obito did?!

A lot's happened.

Huh?

He even put me inside you.

Now you've got the chakra of all Nine Tailed Beasts in you, Naruto!

Even you? The other half of Kurama?

The promised time's finally come, old man Six Paths!

My dear Kurama, you're right.

As Gamamaru foresaw...

A blue-eyed youth who can name all nine Beasts and frolic among them.

Foresaw? You mean the prophecy Giant Gramps Sage told Pervy Sage?

Ah, so his real name is Gamamaru?

You're pretty awesome for knowing that, Super Gramps, ya know?

Hey, Naruto!

Heh?

[chuckling]

You truly do seem to have the ability to win others' cooperation.

You managed to summon my soul and accepted that Ashura's reincarnated inside you...

[chuckling]

Shukaku. Matatabi. Isobu.

Son Goku. Kokuo. Saiken.

Chomei. Gyuki. Kurama.

It appears the day has arrived when the child of prophecy shall change the world.

My dear Naruto...

Mm.

What do you want to do? What is it that you seek for the aftermath of this war?

I would like to hear your honest thoughts and opinions.

Maybe I really am a whole lot like this Ashura guy...

Only, unlike him, I'm just a stupid kid and don't understand many things in this world.

But still, I do know what friends are.

And I want to protect them. That's it.

Is that your response, then?

Yeah.

Long ago, I entrusted everything to little brother Ashura... and didn't pay any

attention to elder brother Indra.

That proved to be the source of calamity.

Give me your dominant arm.

[lightly gasping]

This time,... I'm going to entrust my power to you, Indra's reincarnate, as well.

And from this point on, Naruto and Sasuke...

What you both shall do, and what shall transpire, will be up to the two of you.

Naruto and I...

Sasuke and I...

...may not be real brothers, but I believe we can make peace.

Because we're pretty good friends.

Now, then...

Hey, Kabuto!

Sasuke... He's gonna be okay, right?

Well?! Hey, say something! Come on!

[gargling]

[gasping]

Obito! Is Naruto going to be all right?

Naruto the Jinchuriki will die without his Tailed Beast...

But I put the Tailed Beast back inside him. He'll be okay now.

[grunting]

[gasping]

Sasuke!

Naruto!

Time to get going.

Huh?

You're the first since Hashirama to make me this excited!

You can still dance, can't you? Do you have any other moves?

Come on. Give me some more fun!

He got up.... from a Sekizo barrage?!

Guy Sensei!

So even that didn't work?

[panting]

[panting]

Even Sekizo isn't enough!?

[laughing]

Nice! Nice!

Let's keep on dancing!

All that's left... is Night Guy!

[panting]

Based on his heart's Chakra Point, this attack will be his final one...

Charge!

That stance is not the Sekizo!

Don't tell me he has something even greater!

Guy!

Come on Dad, let's go!

There's no rush. The Academy won't run away, will it?

There's a set time to submit entrance applications.

Oh, nice to meet you! My son is also going to be attending the Academy.

Dad...

I hope that they'll get along okay.

No, I'm afraid that will be impossible!

What did-?! Wait, are you one of those helicopter parents?!

No, Dad. You're wrong. That's not it. He actually

failed the Academy Entrance Exam.

Oh, beg your pardon! I just assumed... since you were in front of the academy...

Quite all right! Don't worry!

I don't think that's funny...

Hey, Kakashi, that's rude.

But Dad, you were a whole lot ruder just a minute ago.

Besides, he's trying to get into the ninja academy even though it seems he can't

use ninjutsu at all...

I just don't think...

Whoops, we gotta get going, or we're going to be late, dad.

Uh- Right.

Excuse us.

Your name's Kakashi Hatake, right?

Huh?

Thank you for all your support!

[chuckling]

Huh?!

Kakashi.

Don't slack off now just because... you got into the academy.

Huh?

At the rate he's training, that boy will become stronger than you.

He will?!

They haven't announced the alternates yet, have they?

The Academy's not dumb. You should ask his name and then remember it.

Seriously?

He'll be a great rival for you.

Hey, you!

Who are you?

[chuckling]

Might Guy!

I'm gonna become stronger than anyone around!

You actually had perfect timing for once.

You all right, Kakashi?!

Dad, it ended up just as you predicted.

Guy!

[roaring]

I'll acknowledge this chakra of yours!

Of all those who have fought me over the years, there's

no one who surpasses you at Taijutsu!

I, Madara, declare that you are the strongest of them all!

Flow!

[roaring]

So fast!

What?! He's bending space?

Uh!

Night Guy!

[spitting]

[grunting]

[grunting]

[grunting]

Guy Sensei?!

[groaning]

That was Guy's final move! What happened?

[wheezing]

[grunting]

[chuckling] I very nearly died! You bastard!

Seems your flame's about to go out... But to show my gratitude...

...for the fun...

I'll finish you off...

...before you turn to ash!

He kicked away my Truthseeker Orb?!

Bushier Brow Sensei.

Naruto.

You appear to be somewhat different than before.

Obito must've...

Yeah.

I'm still trying to figure it out myself.

But I think I can change everything now!

I know I just came back, but the next episode's a little extra!

It's been three years since I was back in the Hidden Leaf Village, and

Konohamaru's pestering me to teach him a new jutsu!

I guess that I have no choice!

I'll just have to teach him one seriously amazing jutsu!

Next time on Naruto Shippuden: "The Ones Who Will Inherit"

Konohamaru, just "gaah!" it and then "bam" it!
