Connecting old words that have been used up

I just want to convey my simple thoughts

That day's faint wind blows away

at the castle ruins of yesterday

I'll laugh with you and live for the moment

Still that incident will continue to trouble you, right?

That's why it must be good-bye

Leaving nothing behind, let us share what is left

In time, we'll realize that it was everything

And sadness will touch our cheeks, creating a river of tears

Trembling thoughts swept into a vortex and melting away

Okay! Drink! Sing!

Let's have fun!

Good grief…This is too much for… a pre-celebration.

Did you take care of the business?

Yes…

More importantly, the rain’s starting to let up.

Shouldn’t you quickly put an end to this farce of a race?

Fine.

Guess I’ll go for a run!

A-Above here, huh?

Yeah…

It’s a quite a long staircase, believe it.

They’re also called the Stone Steps that Tear Hearts Apart.

Heh, cool!

Let’s go at a sprint!

Hey, he’s kidding, right?

What kind of stamina does he have?

Boss.

It seems Idate is heading this way!

He hasn’t run away, just like you said, Boss.

Of course…

I saw potential in him.

Now, it’s just a little more! Run Idate!

A Fierce Battle of Rolling Thunder

Hey…you…!

Huh?

Let me tell you…

It’s not like I trust you or anything yet, okay?

Yeah, yeah whatever.

It doesn’t really matter to me, believe it.

There’s a person who still trusts you, right?!

During the Chunin Exam…

Huh?

You said that a tenth problem appeared, right?

Yeah. It was a weird problem to determine whether you’d take the problem or not.

Three years ago…

I got a similar problem…

Okay, now I’m going to give the tenth problem.

The tenth problem…

What kind of problem is Big Brother going to give?!

The tenth problem is a battle

with the Three-Man Squad you were teamed up with.

The three of you will compete against each other this exercise.

And among you… one of you will be failed!

And the one who is failed will remain a Genin for life

and we will never again let them take the Chunin Exam!

N-No way…

Then for what purpose were we together until now?

I make the rules here.

Back-talk is not allowed at all!

If you want to withdraw, you should do so.

Withdrawing here and waiting half a year is also a way.

If one person among the three withdraws,

of course all three members will be disqualified.

But you will be allowed to take the Chunin Exam

one more time, in half a year.

So, what will you do?

One comrade will be dropped.

I have the confidence to pass.

But, one of them will remain a Genin for life.

It’s a choice between comrades and your life.

If you’re going to quit, now’s the time.

Is there nobody else who’s going to withdraw?

We’re good, then.

Okay, to everyone who has remained here…

I render you disqualified!

Wh-Why…?

H-Hold on a minute!

I prepared myself and remained here!

Such preparedness is below contempt!

Scums like you don’t have the qualifications to become Chunin!

That’s all!

I see…

What kind of a test was it for you guys?

I forgot…

I mean, it was explained to me, but I didn’t really get it.

Trusting in my big brother’s words, I remained in the classroom.

And yet I was failed!

No way could I take that. I questioned my big brother.

Big Brother! What’s up with that test?!

A Shinobi reads the double bluff.

You should’ve understood that was the test.

Even so, I can’t accept that!

No matter how dangerous,

isn’t it necessary to have the courage to plunge into any mission?!

Idate.

Can you really not accept it?

Of course not, such a…

You…quit as a Ninja.

If you’re telling me to quit, then I will.

But tell me why I’m no good!

That’s something you should realize yourself,

with your own power.

To this day…I don’t understand the answer to that.

So after that, you were deceived by Aoi, huh?

Yeah, that’s right.

We made it…to the top!

I’m going by myself from here. You rest!

Huh?! You still saying stuff like that?!

I can’t be asking you guys to help any more.

There’s no point if I don’t win by myself, on my own strength!

Oh…hey! Idate!

I can make it! It seems Sakura’s special medicine has worked!

Blast!

This doesn’t hurt!

I’m back in the game… from here!

If we cross this suspension bridge, it’s Ouzu Island, huh?

We should hurry.

It seems Idate has made it to the Modoroki Shrine.

What?!

It seems we underestimated the Leaf Genin a bit…

You jerk! You didn’t finish them?!

Now’s not the time to be talking about stuff like that.

Please cross the bridge quickly!

Useless Ninja!

Hey! I’m only helping you because it’s the job.

I’ll waste you if you keep talking smart to me.

I-I’m sorry…

If you’ve understood, then get a move on!

Y-Yes!

There he is! That Fukusuke jerk!

This is quite something.

I never thought you’d make it this far.

That’s the… Blade of the Thunder God!

Stop!

Stop!

Stop kicking a dead horse.

Nobody is a match for the legendary Blade of the Thunder God,

said to have been used by the Second Hokage.

You should know this well.

After all, you’re the man who stole this for me.

Blast…

Mud balls, huh? lt’s just like a kid’s fight.

Sorry, I didn’t have any Kunai Knives.

Naruto…

But you won’t be able to dodge the next ball just with that.

Shadow Clone Jutsu!

He’s concentrating the Chakra in his palm.

Here I come!

Here I come!

Once more!

I don’t know what you intend to do, but…

Ninja Art: Senbon Rainstorm!

Too bad.

This Blade of the Thunder God cuts through anything!

Even Chakra itself is no exception.

Naruto!

I have to make doubly sure

so that nothing troublesome will happen again.

I’m your opponent! Keep your hands off Idate!

Humph, are you still saying such things?

Saving each other, protecting each other, trusting each other.

It ticks me off!

The weak can't survive if they don’t support each other.

So they trust people easily and are betrayed.

Weaklings like you guys should just run about and away.

Right, Idate?

It was like that also when you stole

this Blade of the Thunder God, right?

I can see it. That’s the Village Hidden in the Rain.

Aoi Sensei?!

Aoi Sensei!

Idate…

B-Big Brother…

You idiot!

Go back to the village immediately and surrender yourself!

You?!

Do you know what you have done?

What?!

Strict as always, eh? And he’s your cute little brother.

But it’s truly perfect that you’ve shown up here.

Aoi Sensei…

This forbidden Jutsu scroll can’t be deciphered

unless you’re Jonin class.

I’ll have the brothers betray the Leaf Village together.

Ibiki, please decipher it already.

I refuse.

So are you choosing death, together with Idate?

Such as he is, he’s also a Shinobi.

He’s not afraid of death.

It doesn’t seem so.

This face is one taut with fear.

I’m quitting as a Ninja! So please don’t kill me!

Please decipher it.

You don’t want to see your cute little brother killed

before your eyes, do you?

Little brother, you say?

That fool?

Big Brother…

Such a threat means nothing to me.

Hey, Ibiki, is the Village Hidden in the Leaves that important?

Even if you protect it at the risk of your own life,

you’re nothing but a pawn!

So that’s why you became a traitor?

You’re a pathetic man!

You punk!

Idate!

You, run away!

What about you, Big Brother?

I’ll go, after I clean up the mess here!

I don’t think so!

Big Brother!

Go, quickly!

But Big Brother…!

Go! Having you stay is a burden!

I won’t let you!

Go!

So appalling…

that he’d risk his life for such an idiotic guy.

All you could do after that was run.

You could’ve returned to the village and called for help.

But you didn’t do that.

Thinking Ibiki was dead was no excuse!

The fact is, he was alive…

In that regard, lbiki was admirable.

Not only did he completely endure repeated interrogation,

but he also retrieved the Forbidden Jutsu scroll...

without having confessed to anything!

And to think that he did all this

for his good-for-nothing little brother.

You betrayed your village, abandoned your older brother,

and came to think of only yourself.

Even Ibiki who is blood-related and risked his life to save you,

you didn’t trust him!

Afraid of being accused,

you didn’t trust the Village Hidden in the Leaves, your birthplace…

You trust nobody.

You’re not trusted by anyone.

For me, there is no pupil as excellent as you.

As a reward, I’ll let you die in one instant.

Idate!

Sasuke…Sakura!

Rest, Naruto!

I’ll beat this guy!

Don’t be acting cool, believe it.

You can’t beat me, no matter how many people show up.

Me, Aoi Rokusho,

the Rain Jonin who possesses the Blade of the Thunder God.

Is that so?

Interesting.

The Blade of the Thunder God and my Chidori!

Let’s test which is better!

The rumors were true.

The survivor of the village’s honorable Uchiha Clan…

is just a good-for-nothing kid…

Sasuke!

Run, Sakura!

He’ll show no mercy, no matter who the person is.

Everyone will be killed!

No way!

Huh?!

We’ll protect you, no matter what.

We promised that, didn’t we?!

Trust us!

Now all that’s left is the wounded rabbit

and the excellent pupil, huh?

You two together, go to the next world.

Take it back!

Take it back!

What’re you talking about?

What you said…

earlier!

Don't mess…

with the Uchiha… 276 02:10:08:14 02:10:10:02 with me!

Why you--!

Sasuke!

Sasuke! Get up!

How very cold the bottom of the ocean must be.

Stop!

Idate!

Sakura!

Sakura!

Once in a long while, once in a while

The remnants of a person broken by dreams

Look like a mountain

Clinging to the Divine, clinging to Buddha

The remnants of a person crying

Look like a mountain

Rendezvous with a happy dance circle

This is my victory pose, round and around (round around)

Shake shake shake Let’s look

With a bye-bye rhythm that never ends

Look like a mountain

Look like a mountain

Look like a mountain

Look like a mountain

What the heck should we do?

That sword of the Second Hokage won't budge an inch

even with Sasuke's Chidori or my Rasengan!

But I can't lose this battle.

I won't run away, no matter what!

If my techniques aren't going to work, I'll just have to keep trying!
